Download or read book Politics in the Age of Peel written by Norman Gash and published by Faber & Faber. This book was released on 2013-04-18 with total page 410 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Politics in the Age of Peel, first published in 1953, is concerned with the ordinary working world of politicians in England during the stormy period between 1830 and 1850: the age of the railway, the Chartists, the Anti-Corn Law League and the Irish famine. Even in the wake of the Great Reform Act of 1832 many corrupt aspects of the old unreformed system of democratic election survived; and politicians had to meet national problems in the teeth of newly clamorous public opinion, while remaining hostage to the representative structure that defined (and limited) their powers. Norman Gash made his professional reputation with this brilliant work, hailed in an unsigned TLS review - which was known to have been written by Sir Lewis Namier - as worthy of 'the warmest acclamation'.
Download or read book Looking for a Hero written by Peter Maslowski and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 2020-10-08 with total page 520 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Widely acclaimed as the Vietnam War's most highly decorated soldier, Joe Ronnie Hooper in many ways serves as a symbol for that conflict. His troubled, tempestuous life paralleled the upheavals in American society during the 1960s and 1970s, and his desperate quest to prove his manhood was uncomfortably akin to the macho image projected by three successive presidents in their "tough" policy in Southeast Asia. Looking for a Hero extracts the real Joe Hooper from the welter of lies and myths that swirl around his story; in doing so, the book uncovers not only the complicated truth about an American hero but also the story of how Hooper's war was lost in Vietnam, not at home. Extensive interviews with friends, fellow soldiers, and family members reveal Hooper as a complex, gifted, and disturbed man. They also expose the flaws in his most famous and treasured accomplishment: earning the Medal of Honor. In the distortions, half-truths, and outright lies that mar Hooper's medal of honor file, authors Peter Maslowski and Don Winslow find a painful reflection of the army's inability to be honest with itself and the American public, with all the dire consequences that this dishonesty ultimately entailed. In the inextricably linked stories of Hooper and the Vietnam War, the nature of that deceit, and of America's defeat, becomes clear.

Download or read book Tamate a King written by Diane Langmore and published by Melbourne University. This book was released on 1974 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Chalmers, a Scot trained by the Lodon Missionary Society, served in New Guinea for twenty-four years, from 1877 to 1901. The early, taxing years at Suau were followed by a triumphant period at Port Moresby, where, as Tamate ('a King with great power'), he was deferred to by both black and white. But later, in the declining years of his life, when he was lonely, ill and depressed, Chalmers had to struggle almost single-handed to evangelize the swamp lands of the Papuan Gulf and the Fly River. The mysterious circumstances surrounding his death at Goaribari are discussed and the consequences of his death explored. Chalmers played a central role in the history of New Guinea at a particularly crucial time and much of the history of exploration, first contact, and the imposition of European culture, religion and government is reflected in his career."--Book jacket.
