Описание:
As the first complete narrative in English of the Haitian Revolution, Marcus Rainsford's An Historical Account of the Black Empire of Hayti was highly influential in establishing nineteenth-century world opinion of this momentous event. This new edition is the first to appear since the original publication in 1805. Rainsford, a career officer in the British army, went to Haiti to recruit black soldiers for the British. By publishing his observations of the prowess of black troops, and recounting his meetings with Toussaint Louverture, Rainsford offered eyewitness testimonial that acknowledged the intelligence and effectiveness of the Haitian rebels. Although not an abolitionist, Rainsford nonetheless was supportive of the independent state of Haiti, which he argued posed no threat to British colonial interests in the West Indies, an extremely unusual stance at the time. Rainsford's account made an immediate impact upon publication; it was widely reviewed, and translated twice in its first year. Paul Youngquist's and Grégory Pierrot's critical introduction to this new edition provides contextual and historical details, as well as new biographical information about Rainsford. Of particular interest is a newly discovered miniature painting of Louverture attributed to Rainsford, which is reproduced along with the twelve engravings that accompanied his original account.

Описание: In June 1875, Pandora, a steam yacht captained by Allen Young (1827-1915), set out for the Arctic, seeking to make the north-west passage. Published the following year, this short narrative of the four-month voyage provides a highly readable account of seafaring in extreme conditions.
Reflections: The history of the Occupational Therapy Association of Oregon includes records of the OTAO up to 1981 and was compiled and published by the Mt. Hood Community College's Occupational Therapy Assistant program under the direction of Lilian Crawford. Who is Grace Black? presents the history of occupational therapy up to 1981 found in Reflections and then continues on to include information from 1981 to the present day.
This book is not intended to be a documentary, but rather a chronology that hopes to reconnect current practitioners with occupational therapists of the past. Our stories build upon each other and strengthen the foundation of the profession, which is evident in the quality and diversity of today's occupational therapy practice.
