Описание: What are the Brown Mountain Lights? Geologist Ed Speer investigates North Carolinas most famous ghost story-the 120-year-old legend of mysterious nighttime lights reportedly seen on or near Brown Mountain in Burke County. Speers three-year study involved the help of dozens of individuals, comprehensive literature review, two remotely-controlled cameras operating all night long, multiple carefully-staged light tests, telephoto- and telescope-assisted photography, and countless hours of personal observation and ground search for the elusive lights. Both manmade and natural lights were identified, including some highly unexpected ones; however, history, science, and human nature were each found to play major roles in the understanding and interpretation of the lights people see.Researchers, investigators, historians, story tellers, local residents, believers in the legend, and those observers seeking more information about the lights they have seen will find this book useful. As will those who just enjoy a good mystery story. Visit either of the two most-popular observation sites (identified in the book and readily accessible on public land) and maybe you too will catch a glimpse of a mystery light!

Описание: The ‘People’s Joan of Arc’: Mary Elizabeth Lease, Gendered Politics and Populist Party Politics in Gilded-Age America is the first comprehensive biography tracing the captivating life of renowned activist Mary Elizabeth Lease. While Lease is most remembered in American history textbooks as the radical leader of the Populist Party who directed desperate farmers «to raise less corn and more hell», her influence and involvement in the late-nineteenth-century women’s suffrage movement and early-twentieth-century feminist movement place her on par with luminaries such as Susan B. Anthony. Lease’s story stretches from the American Civil War to the Great Depression and particularly illustrates how gender conventions and the related complexities of class and ethnic identity have historically shaped American politics. The diverse suits Lease wore, including housewife, teacher, lawyer, women’s rights activist, temperance advocate, Populist Party orator, Knights of Labor activist, Irish Nationalist, Socialist, Progressive reformer, Republican Party supporter, and «Bull Moose» campaign worker, reflect and highlight the factors fueling America’s reform impulse in the decades framing the turn of the twentieth century and likewise make her a fascinating historical character. Lease’s political opponents accused her of raising too much «hell», while her supporters praised her for translating their sense of societal and economic disempowerment into concrete, proactive political actions. Mary Elizabeth Lease was a heroine to her supporters and a dangerous, unfeminine demagogue to her opponents. Either way, she was unquestionably one of the most captivating figures of her time.
