Описание: In the tradition of Mark Twains Connecticut Yankee in King Arthurs Court and Edgar Rice Burroughs Mars novels, medievalist Stanley Lombardos Paxton versus the Armada delivers a tale of adventure, romance, and thought-challenging alternative history in the third installment of The Crosstime Adventures of Carter Paxton. Newly arrived in England after a time-volta of a century, Carter Paxton, his beautiful wife Lady Joanna, and their companions discover that the year is 1588 and the Spanish Armada will arrive in July. Upon their return to London, they meet swashbuckling playwright Christopher Marlowe, an agent in Doctor John Dees intelligence bureau. Marlowe introduces the buffalo hunter to Doctor Dee, who challenges him and Joanna to prove they are who they claim to be; in an audience with the Queen, they convince the skeptical Elizabeth of their identity. Meanwhile, Father Tranquillus searches for his descendants -- Edwina, Mistress of the Royal Arsenal, and C dmon, herbalist and mediciner at Saint Waltrudis Paupers Hospital. Upon entering the hospital, the poor, indigent patients acclaim the priest as Saint Tranquillus, to Edwinas chagrin and anger; however, C dmon is more willing to accept their ancestors identity. Off on his own errands, one-eyed, hard-drinking Captain Sir Ralph Oldcastle endeavors to get His Majestys Ship Constitution and their prize Spanish galleon, the Santa Eulalia, released from impoundment and, furthermore, to locate a shipwright willing to construct Paxtons submerged rams - the first in the cowboys proposed arsenal of weapons against the Armada. At the Royal Arsenal, Paxton consults Edwina to help him construct an array of armaments ranging from Congreve rockets to Colts marine mines, but the proposed weapon that astonishes the Mistress of the Arsenal is the Carters sky galleon - an airship mounting rocket launchers and Gatling guns. Learning of Carters plans, the Queen demands a sky galleon of her own, which she vows to captain with an all-woman crew. With the Armada cruising up the English Channel, Marlowes beloved Anastasia Petrovka stalked by a fanatic assassin of the Russian Orthodox Inquisition, and Joanna six months pregnant with the twins, Destiny and Gawayne, Paxton has his hands full. When Anastasias former master, Count Anton Pretorius, arrives in search of her, Doctor Dee enlists his aid in conjuring a tempest to scatter the Spanish fleet and save England - but will any of them survive the Armadas suicidal assault on Tilbury to capture the English Queen?

Описание:

The postwar United States has experienced many forms of populist politics, none more consequential than that of the blue-collar white ethnics who brought figures like Ronald Reagan and Donald Trump to the White House. Blue-Collar Conservatism traces the rise of this little-understood, easily caricatured variant of populism by presenting a nuanced portrait of the supporters of Philadelphia Mayor Frank Rizzo.

In 1971, Frank Rizzo became the first former police commissioner elected mayor of a major American city. Despite serving as a Democrat, Rizzo cultivated his base of support by calling for "law and order" and opposing programs like public housing, school busing, affirmative action, and other policies his supporters deemed unearned advantages for nonwhites. Out of this engagement with the interwoven politics of law enforcement, school desegregation, equal employment, and urban housing, Timothy J. Lombardo argues, blue-collar populism arose.

Based on extensive archival research, and with an emphasis on interrelated changes to urban space and blue-collar culture, Blue-Collar Conservatism challenges the familiar backlash narrative, instead contextualizing blue-collar politics within postwar urban and economic crises. Historian and Philadelphia-native Lombardo demonstrates how blue-collar whites did not immediately abandon welfare liberalism but instead selectively rejected liberal policies based on culturally defined ideas of privilege, disadvantage, identity, and entitlement. While grounding his analysis in the postwar era's familiar racial fissures, Lombardo also emphasizes class identity as an indispensable driver of blue-collar political engagement. Blue-Collar Conservatism ultimately shows how this combination of factors created one of the least understood but most significant political developments in recent American history.
