Excerpt: ...in time, but there is not a shadow of doubt that the enemy's flotillas at Bruges are for the time unable to use Zeebrugge as an outlet." An Austrian Offensive? The long delayed Austrian offensive on the Italian front is about to begin. Heavy preparatory bombardment from the direction of the Garda Lake and the Trentino has been announced. Emperor Karl left Vienna for the front. Unrest in the Austrian monarchy is disquieting, and nothing short of a decisive military triumph will restore the old order of things. All of which indicates that an offensive may be expected almost any day. i_._+____ MEN OF THE TYPE OF ALINSON. "It takes all kinds of men to make the world." There are good men and bad, brave and cowardly, tall and short, fat and lean. Brent Dow Alinson is one of a type. Were his name Fritz Steinfeld, he would be classified as pro-German. But, having an American name, Alinson is considered a conscientious objector. He is in the 20s, _ has been registered and drafted, and refused to report for military duty, "because he does not want to kill other men of his age." He has set up his own limitation as to the power of the government over his person. The government is all right, as far as it goes. Alinson was perfectly willing to go on the government's payroll as member of the American legation in Berne, Switzerland. But to wear khaki?--No. There he draws the line. p Well, he has been arrested, brought to Camp Grant as a deserter, and is awaiting trial by a court-martial. Men of the type of Alinson are anarchists, to all practical intents and purposes. They break away from governmental organization, and set up their own individual government, each for himself. Alinson pays taxes and submits to many...

Book excerpt: It is August 1944 and the Gestapo is mercilessly rounding up suspected enemies of the Third Reich.

When she is asked to risk her life to safely "courier" Engel out of Germany, the fate of the world rests in her hands.

Download or read book Searching for Jim written by Terrell Dempsey and published by University of Missouri Press. This book was released on 2014-03-27 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Searching for Jim is the untold story of Sam Clemens and the world of slavery that produced him. Despite Clemens’s remarks to the contrary in his autobiography, slavery was very much a part of his life. Dempsey has uncovered a wealth of newspaper accounts and archival material revealing that Clemens’s life, from the ages of twelve to seventeen, was intertwined with the lives of the slaves around him. During Sam’s earliest years, his father, John Marshall Clemens, had significant interaction with slaves. Newly discovered court records show the senior Clemens in his role as justice of the peace in Hannibal enforcing the slave ordinances. With the death of his father, young Sam was apprenticed to learn the printing and newspaper trade. It was in the newspaper that slaves were bought and sold, masters sought runaways, and life insurance was sold on slaves. Stories the young apprentice typeset helped Clemens learn to write in black dialect, a skill he would use throughout his writing, most notably in Huckleberry Finn. Missourians at that time feared abolitionists across the border in Illinois and Iowa. Slave owners suspected every traveling salesman, itinerant preacher, or immigrant of being an abolition agent sent to steal slaves. This was the world in which Sam Clemens grew up. Dempsey also discusses the stories of Hannibal’s slaves: their treatment, condition, and escapes. He uncovers new information about the Underground Railroad, particularly about the role free blacks played in northeast Missouri. Carefully reconstructed from letters, newspaper articles, sermons, speeches, books, and court records, Searching for Jim offers a new perspective on Clemens’s writings, especially regarding his use of race in the portrayal of individual characters, their attitudes, and worldviews. This fascinating volume will be valuable to anyone trying to measure the extent to which Clemens transcended the slave culture he lived in during his formative years and the struggles he later faced in dealing with race and guilt. It will forever alter the way we view Sam Clemens, Hannibal, and Mark Twain.
