Download or read book Silent Sentinels written by George Newton and published by Savas Beatie. This book was released on 2005-09-19 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Artillery played an important and perhaps decisive role at the July 1863 Battle of Gettysburg. Although many hundreds of books have been published on the battle, few have focused on the artillery. Silent Sentinels fills this flaring gap in the literature. This well-written and illustrated study was designed for both the casual battlefield visitor and the serious scholar. The former will use Silent Sentinels to tour the battlefield, browse existing guns, ponder the many photographs, and learn more about artillery in general; the latter will find the extensive primary sources, diagrams, appendices of numbers and losses, and informative discussion of organization and tactics an indispensable reference resource. Silent Sentinels discusses in detail every gun-type used at Gettysburg, the equipment needed to operate the guns, their organization, and the tactics employed by both Union and Confederate artillery men. In addition to a history of the artillery and how it was used, the author includes chapters on the park’s collection of 436 guns, the pieces on display at the field today, how to identify the different types of cannon, and how to identify the date and place of manufacture. Silent Sentinels concludes with a driving tour of the battlefield, specially designed with the artillery in mind. This lovely historical guide, complete with detailed endnotes and bibliography, will be a welcomed addition to the growing Gettysburg titles.

By revealing parts of her past, told through flashbacks, Alice hopes to achiever her biggest coup in the little time she has left.

This book was released on 1924-01-01 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: RELAYS have been aptly termed "silent sentinels." And they are silent sentinels. They stand on duty twenty-four hours a day, every day in the year, and— year in and year out. They guard thousands of dollars worth of property and equipment. They prevent service interruptions and costly shutdowns. They are really and truly the silent sentinels of the electrical industry. Automatic control is a reality. Supervisory control has been introduced. The inter - connection of systems is no longer an experiment. Service is now reliable and continuous. All of these are attributes of super-power— a new era in the electrical industry. And they were made possible through Westinghouse pioneering in the relay art. Not only has Westinghouse introduced most of the present-day relays, but this Company has also developed various schemes and methods of relay application. Westinghouse relays and relay practice have played an important role in the progress of the electrical industry. It is the purpose of Westinghouse to maintain and extend this leadership to meet the exacting requirements of the future.

Book excerpt: The Silent Sentinels tells the story of the National Woman's Party, a group of suffragists that began an ongoing protest outside of the gates of the White House back in 1917. Refusing to leave until the President of the United States agreed to support the passage of the Nineteenth Amendment, thereby granting women the right to vote, these women endured torrential rains, freezing temperatures, and repeated attacks by mobs of angry men. When the government began arresting the suffragists en masse - forcing them into filthy cells and feeding them rotten food - the women went on hunger strike, refusing to eat until the charges against them were dropped. Their courage and determination in the face of horrendous government repression gained national attention and helped to change the nation forever.

The essays are as wide-ranging as Roger Kennedy's placement of the Toltec Mounds at the time of Charlemagne, Donald Harington's sensitive look at the "bigeminal" architecture of the Wolf dogtrot cabin, and Neil Compton's egalitarian tribute to the Boxley Valley Historic District on the Buffalo National River. At least one current color photo of the site and one historic image are included with each essay. In addition, illustrations of the locations or structures listed in the appendix are scattered throughout sections. In all, Sentinels of History serves as a lavish inventory of historic properties in Arkansas at the end of the twentieth century.
