Описание:
Lloyd George was the 'Man Who Won The War', and a key figure in seeking to resolve the issues of peace. These years were marked by labour unrest, unemployment and strife. The way in which his post-war coalition government handled the unprecedented upsurge of labour unrest set much of the tone for the inter-war years. This book shows how the leading radical and practical reformer of British politics - who always believed in a juster society - was an undoctrinaire man and a reconciler of conflicts but who somehow became associated with reactionary forces, both in industrial relations, in intervention in bolshevik Russia, and in Irish policy. Churchill said of Lloyd George: "Much of his work abides, some of it will grow greatly in the future, and those who come after him will find the pillars of his life's toil upstanding, massive, and indestructible." He spoke of his "power of living in the present without taking short views." Wrigley demonstrates how very skilful Lloyd George was in defusing challenging situations at home with mastery - such as the unrest in mining, in the armed forces and in the police. He was the incomparable creative and persuasive conciliator, and his response to crises was a firm and determined one both in public and in private. He was able to call, too, on the clarity of his political vision and on his experience in his earlier social reforms which affected the lives and happiness of millions. Winston Churchill described him as "the greatest political genius of his day" with "more insight than any other statesman." This book is a key contribution to our understanding of the dilemmas of the inter-war period, and of the great man himself.

Описание: Insights in to the teachings of G.I. Gurdjieff known as the Fourth Way, including their application for personal change and their roots in early Christianity.From the Preface: The discovery of esoteric truth is our birthright as children of the universe. No teacher, no book, no system has the final word. Spirituality is meant to awaken the Higher Self who guides us onto a road of purpose, fulfillment and service. However it is packaged and marketed, the only true value of the product is the extent to which it leads us into the intimate depths of our own being where we can each verify, assimilate, and become the truths underlying all authentic wisdom teachings.A special Appendix features exceptional insight from author Reijo Oksanen and his studies connecting the Gurdjieff Work to the spirituality of Eastern Orthodox Christianity. Also included is a rare translation of the observations of Boris Mouravieff and his relationship to Gurdjieff and Ouspensky.

Описание: In 1634, Virginia was divided into eight counties and the county which included the entire eastern shore peninsula of Virginia was named Accomack, a variation of Accawmacke, the Indian name for this region. ..".in 1642 the name was changed to Northampton, but for many years Accomack often appeared in the records for the name of this area. ...in 1663, the northern and largest part of the eastern shore peninsula was separated from Northampton County as Accomack, as it remains today. The county court first met at Pungoteague but it was soon moved to Matomkin, later known as Drummondtown, and since 1893, as Accomac k]." This volume contains abstracts of the will and administration records at the old county court house at Accomack and are remarkably complete, naming beneficiaries of estates, relationships to the testator or intestate, and the nature of the inheritance. Special attention has been given to the orders of probate which often give the names of children and heirs not mentioned in the body of the will. A relatively small number of estates are dated in the 1600s; the majority are from the 1700s. Stratton Nottingham was particularly fitted for this work, having a natural taste for antiquarian research, considerable association with and training in the forms of law, and a marked ability in reading the old script in the original volumes of records. This edition has been completely re-typeset from a copy of the original (1931) mimeographed volume, and will therefore contain any errors or omissions which Mr. Nottingham may have made.
