Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Folklorists and lovers of folk songs will delight in this collection of the lyrics of songs sung by settlers of western New York in the middle of the nineteenth century. The manuscript on which this book is based is the most important collection of traditional song-texts, British and American in origin, to survive from its period. Discovered in the 1930s in the attic of Harry S. Douglass in Arcade, New York, it was written by Julia S. and Volney O. Stevens, who transcribed nearly ninety of the songs with which their father, Artemas Stevens, so often entertained them. The Stevens family had come to Wyoming County, New York, from New England in 1836, bringing with them traditional songs and ballads. The Stevens-Douglass manuscript contains the texts of 89 songs. In A Pioneer Songster, these are organized first by their origins (36 are from the British Isles; 53 were composed in America) and then according to themes and subjects, including love, history, politics, the pioneering life, politics, murder and shipwrecks, minstrel songs, spirituals, Indian legends, temperance, and satire. The book features a general introduction and shorter introductions to each themed section. In addition, each song is accompanied by an informative headnote detailing its history, meaning, and significance. A Pioneer Songster has been edited for the enjoyment of the general reader, but in their annotation, the editors have aimed at assisting students and scholars of folklore, musicology, and American history. While preserving the manuscript's original punctuation and spelling, they have succeeded in creating a resource that will be of interest to all who care for the American folk tradition and the history of New York State.

This book was released on 2023-01-31 with total page 1003 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Gurkha Army Service Corps, the predecessor of The Queen’s Own Gurkha Logistic Regiment, was raised in Singapore in 1958 ten years after the transfer of Gurkha regiments from the Indian Army to the British Army and towards the end of the Malayan Emergency. Within four years of being formed, it was committed to continuous operations in Brunei and Borneo during Confrontation with Indonesia between 1962-66. It was also redesignated the Gurkha Transport Regiment in 1965 to reflect changes to the Army’s logistic structure. Between 1966-71, the Regiment was substantially reduced in size, along with the rest of The Brigade of Gurkhas, as Britain withdrew its forces from East of Suez. Concentrated in Hong Kong, the Regiment provided transport support to the Garrison for the next 20 years. In 1991, a composite squadron was sent to reinforce British Forces in the Gulf War after which, in preparation for the handback of Hong Kong to China, the Regiment moved to and became permanently stationed in the UK. In recognition of its past services, it was granted the royal title ‘The Queen’s Own Gurkha Transport Regiment’ in 1992. The following two decades saw it undertake multiple operational tours to the Balkans, Iraq, Cyprus and Afghanistan as well as providing humanitarian assistance to the Ebola crisis in Sierra Leone. It also expanded both its role, to incorporate supply and catering, and size, which led in 2001 to it being redesignated to its current title ‘The Queen’s Own Gurkha Logistic Regiment’. This history records the events and activities of the Regiment during its first 60 years of service to the Crown. While of wider interest to military historians, it is principally written for members of the Regiment, past, present and future.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Girl of the Golden West" is a dramatic play authored by David Belasco, an united states of America dramatist. The story is set against the backdrop of the mid-nineteenth-century California Gold Rush and has been praised for its vivid representation of the American West at the time. The story centers around the figure of Mary Robbins, dubbed "The Girl of the Golden West." Mary is a strong, independent, and supportive woman which controls a tavern in a Sierra Nevada mining community. She falls in love with the daring bandit Ramerrez, frequently referred to as "That Robin Hood of the West," who is being chased through the cruel Sheriff Jack Rance. While the individuals' lives communicate within this wild and lawless frontier environment, Belasco's drama skilfully blends aspects of romance and adventure, and other one suspense. Mary's inner battle between her desire to Ramerrez and her loyalty to her customers, along with the tense standoff between Rance and Ramerrez, makes for an intriguing and emotionally strong story. "The Girl of the Golden West" is renowned for its precise representation of the American West and distinctive characters. Belasco's art encapsulates the spirit of the Gold Rush era, delving into themes of love, justice, and the pursuit of one's aspirations in a harsh and unforgiving setting.
