Book New Spaces and Old Frontiers

Download or read book New Spaces and Old Frontiers written by Salma Ahmed Nageeb and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 2004 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Salma Nageeb's book provides case studies and analysis of the lives of four Muslim women living in Khartoum, the capital of Sudan. Nageeb examines how these women negotiate their social space, locating their daily struggles within the increasingly rigid Islamic practice in Sudan. The women express resistance and cultural accommodation in different ways: while some choose to instrumentalize state and religious rules and rhetoric for their own aims, others stretch the boundaries with gentle persistence. These case studies provide a unique dimension to Nageeb's important sociological and social anthropological analysis of everyday life in the context of globalization and 'Islamization.'

Book Back Trailing on the Old Frontiers  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Back Trailing on the Old Frontiers Classic Reprint written by Charles M. Russell and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-21 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Back-Trailing on the Old Frontiers The fourteen stories in this volume are taken from the series, Back-Trailing on the Old Frontiers, illustrated by Charles M. Russell, which have appeared during the past year in Sunday editions of daily newspapers in all parts of the United States. There have been so many demands for the publication of these historical sketches of the old west in book form that it was decided to put them forth in three volumes at a popular price. This is the first of the three. It is planned to publish the other two volumes during the next year. In the compilation of these stories, which narrate briefly some of the outstanding incidents of dramatic interest in the pioneering days of the "Far West," we wish to acknowledge our indebtedness to such volumes as Pathfinders of the West, by Agnes C. Laut; The History of the American Fur Trade of the Far West, by Hiram M. Chittenden; The Conquest of the Missouri, by Joseph Mills Hanson; Beyond the Old Frontiers, by George Bird Grinnell; Indian Fights and Fighters, by Cyrus Townsend Brady; and the Overland Stage to California, by Frank A. Root and William E. Connelley. The illustrations by Mr. Russell, because of their accuracy of detail historically, are well worth close study. He is generally recognized as the greatest living portrayer of the frontier life of the West, and is probably the foremost living authority on the Northwest Plains Indians, whom he has studied for more than forty years. These stories are of much interest to children, and have been used freely in history classes in the schools of Milwaukee, Minneapolis and the many other cities where they have appeared in Sunday newspapers.

Book Alabama s Frontiers and the Rise of the Old South

Download or read book Alabama s Frontiers and the Rise of the Old South written by Daniel Dupre and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2017-11-30 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A well-written, nicely comprehensive, and inclusive social history of Alabama before and immediately after statehood.”—H-AmIndian Alabama endured warfare, slave trading, squatting, and speculating on its path to becoming America’s twenty-second state, and Daniel S. Dupre brings its captivating frontier history to life in Alabama’s Frontiers and the Rise of the Old South. Dupre’s vivid narrative begins when Hernando de Soto first led hundreds of armed Europeans into the region during the fall of 1540. Although this early invasion was defeated, Spain, France, and England would each vie for control over the area’s natural resources, struggling to conquer it with the same intensity and ferocity that the Native Americans showed in defending their homeland. Although early frontiersmen and Native Americans eventually established an uneasy truce, the region spiraled back into war in the nineteenth century, as the newly formed American nation demanded more and more land for settlers. Dupre captures the riveting saga of the forgotten struggles and savagery in Alabama’s—and America’s—frontier days. “An introduction to the interaction of European powers, the United States, and Indian tribes in Alabama and the Southeast.”—Western Historical Quarterly

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the early years of the U.S. republic, its vital southwestern quadrant - encompassing the modern-day states between South Carolina and Louisiana - experienced nearly unceasing conflict. In The Old Southwest, 1795-1830: Frontiers in Conflict, historians Thomas D. Clark and John D. W. Guice analyze the many disputes that resulted when the United States pushed aside a hundred thousand Indians and overtook the final vestiges of Spanish, French, and British presence in the wilderness. Leaders such as Andrew Jackson, who emerged during the Creek War, introduced new policies of Indian removal and state making, along with a decided willingness to let adventurous settlers open up the new territories as a part of the Manifest Destiny of a growing country.
