Nathan Bedford Forrest is best known for his role as a Confederate officer in the American War for Southern Independence. While most Forrest biographies discuss his military career in great detail, what they do not provide is the General's own perspective of the conflict. In his one-of-a-kind book, Give 'Em Hell Boys Forrest scholar, Forrest relation, and award-winning author Lochlainn Seabrook handily remedies this situation.
Neatly divided into five sections for each year of Lincoln's War, as the subtitle indicates, the book encompasses all of the General's military correspondence, from 1861 to 1865. In the 300 fascinating footnoted entries included, we find Forrest's reports, dispatches, orders, returns, letters, notes, communiques, and telegrams, as he himself wrote or dictated them, usually from the battlefield. His missives were sent out to a wide assortment of Civil War figures, from the president of the Confederacy (Jefferson Davis) and fellow Confederate officers to his Yankee enemies, most of the communications with the latter which ended with unsurprising results: immediate surrender Through Forrest's own words, we are able to track not only the progress of the War, but his rise from private to lieutenant general (one rank shy of full general)-the only man on either side to achieve such a feat.
Included along with a bibliography and an index are such extras as a historical time line of the highlights of Forrest's life, a list of all of Forrest's engagements, and a section on his recognition by the Confederate Congress. Like the author's other works on Forrest, Give 'Em Hell Boys (named after one of his most famous war cries) will help destroy the many anti-South myths surrounding the General, giving him back his rightful place as a lauded American icon. Learn about both Forrest the man and the Rebel officer from the great Confederate chieftain himself, in this captivating read that is sure to become a standard in Civil War literature.

Описание: System science and engineering is a field that covers a wide spectrum of modern technology. A system can be seen as a collection of entities and their interrelationships, which forms a whole greater than the sum of the entities and interacts with people, organizations, cultures and activities and the interrelationships among them. Systems composed of autonomous subsystems are not new, but the increased complexity of modern technology demands ever more reliable, intelligent, robust and adaptable systems to meet evolving needs. This book presents papers delivered at the International Conference on System Science and Engineering ICSSE2015,

In April 1778, three years into what would come to be known as the Revolutionary War, Margaret (Peggy) Shippen met Major General Benedict Arnold of the Continental Army. He was thirty-six, arguably the most revered field commander in the country, the hero of Ticonderoga, Valcour Island, and Saratoga. She was eighteen, the highly-educated daughter of a leading Philadelphia family, a renowned beauty, and a British loyalist. Against the young country's divide of those for and against independence and those caught in between, The Colour of the Times is the story of Peggy Shippen: scared and angered by the rebellion that has estranged family and friends and bred a new, radical government in Pennsylvania; her meeting and marriage to the brilliant but embattled Benedict Arnold; and their stunning path to West Point and treason. It is the story of the capital, Philadelphia, as Tories and patriots struggle under both British and American rule. It is also the story of the armies and their leaders, George Washington and Sir Henry Clinton, all relying on Arnold. And, finally, it is the story of lesser knowns, like Peggy's closest sister, Elizabeth, and her fiancE, a British prisoner of war; David and Rebecca Franks of the Levy-Franks financial empire, facing ruin from the conflict; John AndrE, Adjutant General of the British Army, desperate for a chance at glory; and Judge Edward Shippen, a father trying to explain a time "as much civil war as rebellion." Set in Philadelphia, Valley Forge, British-held Manhattan, and the Highlands of New York, this gripping historical account moves from Peggy Shippen's days being entertained by occupying British troops to the greatest betrayal in America's history.
Описание: Written for the student-athlete, this short read is filled with precise steps to guide any student to excel in both academics and athletics. Gary McDonald has created a road map to success that, according to a parent of a committed college baseball player, "opened my son's and my eyes with a specific program that attacks and defeats the blocks in the mental side of life. That's LIFE, not just baseball. Gary's program answered questions for us in a matter of minutes that I had spent two years trying to find the answers to. This program should be instituted in everyday life. In one day, I have seen a change in my son's focus and performance levels. I, too, have begun to follow these steps in my own life. I sense a change in how I see and do things. Being mentally lazy is what holds everyone back from achieving success in all parts of life. Many thanks to Gary and Kelly. This is the best thing I have learned in my 50 years of living. I wish I had learned it earlier." "This book is a must read for all kids playing baseball and, more importantly, all parents of kids playing baseball." -Jodi Hetzel, parent of a college baseball player.
