Abbreviations and Terms. 1973-1974 Timeline of Key Events. Index of Subjects. Index of Names. DJ has several small creases. Douglas Brinkley (born December 1…4, 1960) is an American author, Katherine Tsanoff Brown Chair in Humanities and professor of history at Rice University. Brinkley is the history commentator for CNN, and a contributing editor to the magazine Vanity Fair. He is a public spokesperson on conservation issues. He joined the faculty of Rice University as a professor of history in 2007. Luke A. Nichter is a Professor of History and Beck Family Senior Fellow at Texas A&M University - Central Texas, Book Review Editor for Presidential Studies Quarterly, and a National Endowment for the Humanities Public Scholar for 2017-2018. His area of specialty is the Cold War, the Presidency, and U.S. Political History, with a focus on the "long 1960s" from John F. Kennedy through Watergate. This concluding volume covers the final year of the Nixon white house tapes, captured on tape between 1971 and 1973. Revelations include how Nixon's greatest fear during the Watergate investigation was not that evidence would confirm his role in the break-in--he had none--but that his secret domestic intelligence proposal, the Huston Plan, would become public; how Nixon and Kissinger knew privately that the January 1973 Vietnam peace agreement would not hold, even as the ink was still drying; and Nixon's threat to send a "division" of tanks to kill Native Americans at the Wounded Knee standoff.

"Sisters, Seeds, & Cedars is the compelling story of family life and relationships in a nineteenth century Arkansas community. The letters span three generations, providing an intimate view of the devotion, pride, joys, and sorrows of everyday life." - from the rear outer jacket. "As sources about life in southern Arkansas during the 19th century, these famlly letters are priceless." - Dee Brown, Arkansas author of Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee. "A fascinating portrait of the American South. These letters offer an intimate view of a family from antebellum worlds to the twentieth century." - WIlliam Ferris, Director, Center for the Study of Southern Culture. "Two sisters, Cornelia and Clara, begin the narrative with a series of short notes to their father asking for presents of hair ribbons. From this girlish beginning, the plot expands to include a hundred years of family and friends. Clara leaves Alabama to visit Brother George, Brother Joh, Sis Fannie, and Sis Millie in Arkansas while Cornelia remains in Alabama to stay with her parents and teach school. Letters cross the Mississippi River regularly, always full of family and community news. Babies are born, couples marry, and loved ones ar buried with a gentle language that captures their joy, expectations, disappointments, and grief. Clara finds love in Arkansas and marries, thus becoming a member of the Arkansas community. She and her husband are farmers filled with the need to till the soil, plant, and watch things grow. Seeds, especially flower seeds, are requested from Alabama as a way to bring a portion of "home" into their transplanted lives. Clara even asks for seedlings of the cedar trees from the family cemetery in Alabama when she loses her two small children on the same day and must begin her own family cemetery in Arkansas. When war comes to the communities in 1861 correspondence across the Mississippi becomes sporadic at best and almost nonexistent for four years, but life continues and efforts are made to stay in contact with family members, some of whom are in battle. Emotions run high and there is a constant concern for the well-being of those dear people who are far afield. The harshness of life is never more evident than the period during the war which demanded courage from everyone. But the people endure and emerge stronger. Cornelia joins her family in Arkansas. Second generations take their place in the community, and the cycle begins again. These letters are a miscrocosm of America. People like these letter writers built communities, suffered the same hardships, nurtured the same strengths, and experienced the same emotions in every part of this nation. They sowed not only cotton and corn; they sowed the seeds of a future world power. They not only planted roses, hyacinths, and cedar trees; they planted values for generations to come." - from the inner front and rear jakcet flaps. Huddleston, Jeff (illustrations); Lowrey, Robert E. (book design) (illustratore).

Trade paperback. Condizione: Very good. [12], 396, [6] pages. Footnotes. Map. Illustrations. The Commanders, 1863-1865. Bibliography. Index. Cover has slight wear and soiling. Lieutenant William H. Peel was 23 years old when Mississippi seceded from the Union. He joined the 11th Mississippi Infantry. Captured at the culmination…of the Pickett-Pettigrew-Trimble Charge at Gettysburg on July 3, 1863, Peel spent the remainder of his service at the prison on Johnson's Island in Sandusky Bay. By turns elegiac, tragic and often comic Peel's record of those months, along with his detailed account of the famous battle that led to his incarceration, is one of the gems of personal literature created during that conflict. The diary, now in the care of the Mississippi Archives, was transcribed by a Peel descendent who brings to this work an understanding of both the history and the family that shaped him, giving the modern reader a view inside Peel's world. Foreword by Dr. David Bush. Presumed First Paperback Edition, First printing.

Hardcover. Condizione: Very good. Condizione sovraccoperta: Very good. First Printing [Stated]. The format is approximately 6.25 inches by 9.25 inches. xxix, [1], 225 pages. Illustrations. Tabular Data. Appendix I and II. Notes. Index. Editors' preface to the English edition. Yoshitake Horie, a Japanese field-grade Army officer…who served as a liaison officer with the Japanese Navy, was in a unique position to describe in detail the respective positions, ideas, and assumptions that both services had about the Pacific War. A specialist in logistics and head of the headquarters on Chichi Jima, Horie was intimately involved with the battle plans. Robert D. Eldridge was Associate Professor at the Osaka School of International Public Policy, Japan. Charles W. Tatum was born in 1926 in Tulsa, OK and joined the U.S. Marine Corps in 1939. He served in the Marines until 1945 and fought in the Battle if Iwo Jima. He is the author of Red Blood, Black Sand. During a dinner with Major Yoshitaka Horie (in charge of 109th Divisions Detached Headquarters on Chichi Jima) Kuribayashi asked Horie his opinion for defending Iwo Jima, to which Horie replied it was vulnerable as "a pile of eggs" and better to sink it to the bottom of the ocean with enough explosives. Kuribayashiwho had spent much time in Canada as deputy military attaché and traveled often in Americawas in agreement, however they knew that at 628 miles (1,011 km) from Tokyo, Iwo Jima would be "a dagger aimed straight at the heart of the homeland". Before leaving Japan to take up his post, Kuribayashi had informed his wife not to expect him home. Yoshitake Horie, a Japanese field-grade Army officer who served as a liaison officer with the Japanese Navy, was in a unique position to describe in detail the respective positions, ideas, and assumptions that both services had about the Pacific War. A specialist in logistics and head of the headquarters on Chichi Jima, Horie was intimately involved with the battle plans. Fighting Spirit is essential reading for anyone interested in the Battle of Iwo Jima and the Pacific War. Maj. Horie was one of only four Japanese field grade officers directly associated with the Battle of Iwo Jima who survived. He was the only officer known to have left memoirs. Having served as a liaison officer with the Navy, Major Horie described in detail the respective positions, ideas, and assumptions that both the Imperial Japanese Army and Navy had when executing the Pacific War, the personalities involved, and the challenges they faced. He was a specialist in logistics and headed Lt. Gen. Kuribayashi's detached headquarters on Chichi Jima, located between Iwo Jima and mainland Japan. He was however intimately involved in planning the battle, and used his experience as a liaison to the Imperial Navy to share information and insights through his contacts. He was also very much aware of the limits to Japan's strategy. Fighting Spirit is an annotated translation of the memoirs of Imperial Japanese Army Major Yoshitaka Horie, co-edited by a USMC veteran of the Battle of Iwo Jima and an American academic who is a specialist on U.S.-Japan relations. Maj. Horie's book was first published in 1965, on the 20th anniversary of the battle. It was his desire to have it published in English, but he passed away in 2003 before seeing his dream realized. In addition to the 19 chapters of Horie's original work, the book includes an Editors' Preface, which provides biographical information on Maj. Horie and the context of the book, and two appendices of materials prepared by Maj. Horie shortly after the end of the war.

His most successful work, In the Footsteps of Sherlock Holmes, was published in 1958 and was followed by The London of Sherlock Holmes and The World of Sherlock Holmes. Harrison was awarded the Occident Prize for Weep for Lycidas (1934), was named Duke of Sant Estrella by the Kingdom of Redonda (1951), and was named Irregular Shilling by The Baker Street Irregulars of New York (1964). He was a member of the Society of Authors, Crime Writers' Association, Baker Street Irregulars of New York, and the Sherlock Holmes Society of London. In 1915, at the height of his career, Sherlock Holmes wrote his Memoirs and deposited the manuscript for safekeeping at the British Museum. Released by the Museum sixty years later, the manuscript has now been edited by the world's leading authority on Holmes. To Dr. Watson, Sherlock Holmes was the best and wisest man that Watson had ever known. But what was he really likethis man of modest birth who made himself the most famous private detective of all time, trusted agent, friend and confidant of the Great? Here is the great sleuth's own fearless analysis of his complex nature: his drug-taking; his ambitions; his reasons for not marrying; and his passion for the One Woman who would always be beyond his reach. The Memoirs are full of surprises even for confirmed Holmesians, revealing aspects of Holmes's life that neither Dr. Watson nor Sir Arthur Conan Doyle were aware of. For instance, they show that the most powerful influence in shaping Homes's career, by finding him illustrious clients, was the American financier William H. Vanderbilt. But if the Memoirs take us into a world of wealth and power, there is another world with which Holmes became equally well acquainted: that raffish demimonde his half-dozen carefully contrived 'other selves' could penetrate without endangering the lifeof reputationof Sherlock Holmes. The adventures of these masquerade characters, ranging from 'a groom out of livery' to a female temperance campaigner, throw new and amusing light on Holmes's 'undercover' activities. Holmes touches only occasionally in these Memoirs on his actual methods of detection; he is concerned primarily with describing the world in which he flourished, and his place in it. Almost every great name in modern history up to World War Iin the United States as well as in the Old Worldappears in the dramatis personae of Sherlock Holmes's astonishing life.
