Feeding a Hunger for Adventure, a Thirst for Beauty, and a Longing for Discovery: The Alaskan Dream
Between Heaven and the Bering Sea is the highly personal travel experiences of the Burkes over a five-month journey. It begins near the American-Canadian border, takes the reader along the famous Alaska Highway through several Canadian provinces highlighting numerous cities, and praises the wonders of Alaska. This unique "travelogue" reveals to tourists the sightseeing "musts;" however, it also relates the travel concerns and important considerations one needs to keep in mind when journeying north of the border. For many, this is the trip of a lifetime. With advance preparation and adequate planning, it will be outstanding.

Описание:
Today, a century and a half after the abolition of slavery across most of the Americas, the idea of monetary reparations for former slaves and their descendants continues to be a controversial one. Lost among these debates, however, is the fact that such payments were widespread in the nineteenth century—except the “victims” were not slaves, but the slaveholders deprived of their labor. This landmark comparative study analyzes the debates over compensation within France and Great Britain. It lays out in unprecedented detail the philosophical, legal-political, and economic factors at play, establishing a powerful new model for understanding the aftermath of slavery in the Americas.
