Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Through its coverage of 19 epidemics associated with a broad range of wars, and blending medical knowledge, demographics, geographic, and medical information with historical and military insights, this book reveals the complex relationship between epidemics and wars throughout history. How did small pox have a tremendous effect on two distinct periods of war—one in which the disease devastated entire native armies and leadership, and the other in which technological advancements and the application of medical knowledge concerning the disease preserved an army and as a result changed the course of events? Epidemics and War: The Impact of Disease on Major Conflicts in History examines fascinating historical questions like this and dozens more, exploring a plethora of communicable diseases—viral, fungal, and/or bacterial in nature—that spread and impacted wars or were spread by some aspect of mass human conflict. Written by historians, medical doctors, and people with military backgrounds, the book presents a variety of viewpoints and research approaches. Each chapter examines an epidemic in relation to a period of war, demonstrating how the two impacted each other and affected the populations involved directly and indirectly. Starting with three still unknown/unidentified epidemics (ranging from Classical Athens to the Battle of Bosworth in England), the book's chapters explore a plethora of diseases that spread through wars or significantly impacted wars. The book also examines how long-ended wars can play a role in the spread of epidemics a generation later, as seen in the 21st-century mumps epidemic in Bosnia, 15 to 20 years after the Bosnian conflicts of the 1990s.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Amazing and exciting, as romantic as it is realistic and historically authentic, THE BONAPARTES IN AMERICA was the first published work to contain in one volume all available material, much of it newly discovered by them, on every member of the Bonaparte family that lived in the United States or was connected in any way with the country. Dr. Macartney, distinguished historian, former head of the Presbyterian Church in the United States, and Major Dorrance, author and publisher, roamed afar in their quest of new and important material. Research in the British Museum, and special trips through France and to Corsica, to mention but a few, went into their book of old romance, which was first published on the 100th anniversary of the former King Joseph Bonaparte’s final return to Europe from the United States. This one famous and colorful family has placed a great if hitherto little known part in the building of America, our native land. THE BONAPARTES IN AMERICA contains fascinating chapters on Jerome Bonaparte and Elizabeth Patterson; Charles J. Bonaparte of Baltimore; Joseph Bonaparte at Philadelphia, Bordentown, New Jersey, and Lake Bonaparte New York; the Murats of Florida; Napoleon III in New York City; Napoleon III and Mexico; The Napoleonic Exiles in Alabama; Texas and the Champ d’Asile; Marshal Ney and North Carolina; Napoleon and the Louisiana Purchase; Napoleon’s American Son in California; and American Plots to Rescue Napoleon from St. Helena. THE. BONAPARTES IN AMERICA is beautifully illustrated with old portraits and engravings, including pictures of Napoleon, Jerome and Elizabeth. Jerome Napoleon Bonaparte. Charles J. Bonaparte, Joseph Bonaparte, Joseph’s I Philadelphia home, “Point Breeze” and Bonaparte I park at Bordentown, Lake Bonaparte, Prince and Princess Achille Murat, Napoleon III, Letizia Bonaparte, mother of Napoleon, John Gordon Bonaparte of San Francisco and the Napoleon House at New Orleans.

Book excerpt: Europas historie, Frankrigs historie, fransk militærhistorie og krigshistorie - amerikansk biografi om Napoleon (1769-1821), den store franske kejser, hærfører, soldat, militær leder, feltherre, politiker og statsmand, som i den grad ændrede Europakortet og Frankrigs historie, og ikke mindst militærhistorien med sine forbløffende, forbavsende og brilliante sejre. Napoleon er beundret og hadet og forkætret som få, og der er skrevet så utroligt mange bøger om ham, også meget vås; dette 4-bindsværk hører til i den absolut lødige del af Napoleonslitteraturen. Stilen er fin og meget bredt fortællende, men historisk absolut korrekt, det forfriskende ved værket er den amerikanske synsvinkel, og de sidste kapitler som forsøger at beskrive Napoleon og hans betydning for Frankrig og Europa i en bredere sammenhæng. Det allerbedste ved værket er dog illustrationerne. Billedmaterialet er meget fint, smukke reproduktioner af samtidige kunstnere, dels med Napoleon selv, og hans familie og forskellige "gribende" episoder i hans brogede liv, og dels de mange krigsbilleder, med forskellige krigsepisoder og krigsoplevelser med franske soldater og den franske hær, herunder en del fine uniformsbilleder og slagscener. Værket er i 4 dele, i stort format, udkom i 1894 (denne udgave fra 1896) og er skrevet af en amerikansk historieprofessor ved Princeton Universitetet. Hvert bind har en liste over illustrationerne, og udførlige kapiteloverskrifter med mange stikordsindgange til værket, desuden samlet register til alle 4 bind bagerst i bd.4.
