Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Matthew M. Bartlett is an open channel to the darkness” —Michael T. Cisco, author of Unlanguage A hair product’s occult properties give the unsuspecting consumer more than just luxurious locks. A rural museum’s shocking exhibits explore the dark and deathly aspects of laughter. A house travels the skies by night to find the man who long ago hid from terror in its abandoned halls. An actor on a movie set recites a scripted incantation that summons unholy apocalypse. An unseemly birthday party novelty turns out to be a diabolical tool of revenge. A town’s dark devotion to a dead child spells danger for unwary day trippers. A senior citizen van takes an unexpected detour to hell. Join Matthew M. Bartlett, author of Gateways to Abomination, as he takes you on a tour through witch-ridden Leeds, Massachusetts, through hex-haunted Hulse, Massachusetts, and beyond, to the darker precincts of existence, where the chance rotation of a radio dial leads to cosmic madness, where devils reign, where doom creeps, where fiends flourish…where night cowers. “Reading Bartlett is like watching the offspring of François Rabelais & Al Columbia frolic like demented wildlife, where people wear the faces of a Hannah Höch portrait while giggling macabre wisdom over obscene broadcasts from radio stations located deep within dark forests.” —Christopher Slatsky, author of The Immeasurable Corpse of Nature

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: French rule in Syria and Lebanon coincided with the rise of colonial resistance around the world and with profound social trauma after World War I. In this tightly argued study, Elizabeth Thompson shows how Syrians and Lebanese mobilized, like other colonized peoples, to claim the terms of citizenship enjoyed in the European metropole. The negotiations between the French and citizens of the Mandate set the terms of politics for decades after Syria and Lebanon achieved independence in 1946. Colonial Citizens highlights gender as a central battlefield upon which the relative rights and obligations of states and citizens were established. The participants in this struggle included not only elite nationalists and French rulers, but also new mass movements of women, workers, youth, and Islamic populists. The author examines the "gendered battles" fought over France's paternalistic policies in health, education, labor, and the press. Two important and enduring political structures issued from these conflicts: • First, a colonial welfare state emerged by World War II that recognized social rights of citizens to health, education, and labor protection. • Second, tacit gender pacts were forged first by the French and then reaffirmed by the nationalist rulers of the independent states. These gender pacts represented a compromise among male political rivals, who agreed to exclude and marginalize female citizens in public life. This study provides a major contribution to the social construction of gender in nationalist and postcolonial discourse. Returning workers, low-ranking religious figures, and most of all, women to the narrative history of the region -- figures usually omitted -- Colonial Citizens enhances our understanding of the interwar period in the Middle East, providing needed context for a better understanding of statebuilding, nationalism, Islam, and gender since World War II.

First during Sir John Moore’s retreat to Coruña and then as part of the famed Light Division under General Craufurd. His view of the actions on the Coa, Masséna's invasion of Portugal, the battle of Fuentes d'Oñoro, the siege of Ciudad Rodrigo follow before his wounds at the storming of Badajoz force his retirement. The author gives an excellent account of the day-to-day life as an N.C.O. in the light infantry, tactics and experience recounted in detail, along with the impact on the Portuguese and Spanish civilians that he encounters.
