Описание: As slums were cleared all across England after the Blitz in World War II, the need for housing became pressing, and prefabrication was quickly embraced as a temporary solution. The resulting bungalows with slightly pitched roofs, pretty gardens, and all modern conveniences became home to hundreds of thousands of people around the country, including many who had not previously had the luxury of hot running water or a fridge. These squat little homes were meant to last just a decade--a mere stopgap as the country got back on its feet--but many of the prefabs are still standing today, with residents often fighting to hold on to them. Responding to growing public interest in these fast disappearing houses and the communities they fostered, this book recounts residents' first-hand experiences--from the first time they laid eyes on these "little castles" to their attempts to hold onto them beyond their designated short-term time frame. Authors consider the relative success of postwar prefab housing in the wider context of British social housing and examine clever solutions being put forward to solve the housing crisis today. Fewer and fewer prefabs remain, but you can still spot them here and there across the English landscape, sitting cozily among their big brick-built neighbors, a lesson in thoughtful design and community-building.
In 1846, French Canadian-born A. M. A. Blanchet was named the first Catholic bishop of Walla Walla in the area soon to become Washington Territory. He arrived at Fort Walla Walla in late September 1847, part of the largest movement over the Oregon Trail to date. During the thirty-two years of Blanchet's tenure in the Northwest, the region underwent profound social and political change as the Hudson's Bay Company moved headquarters and many operations north following the Oregon Treaty, U.S. government and institutions were established, and Native American inhabitants dealt with displacement and discrimination. Blanchet chronicled both his own pastoral and administrative life and his observations on the world around him in a voluminous correspondence-almost nine hundred letters-to religious superiors and colleagues in Montreal, Paris, and Rome; funding organizations; other missionaries; and U.S. officials. This selection of Blanchet's letters provides a fascinating view of Washington Territory as seen through the eyes of an intelligent, devout, energetic, perceptive, and occasionally irascible cleric and administrator.
Almost all of Blanchet's correspondence was in French. Roberta Stringham Brown and Patricia O'Connell Killen have chosen forty-five of those letters to translate and annotate, creating a history of early Washington that provides new insights into relationships, events, and personalities. A number of the letters provide first-hand glimpses of familiar events, such as the Whitman tragedy, the California gold rush, Indian wars and land displacement, transportation advances, and the domestic material culture of a frontier borderland. Others voice the hardships of historically underrepresented groups, including Native Americans, Metis, and French Canadians, and the experiences of ordinary people in growing population centers such as Seattle, Walla Walla, and Vancouver, Wash-ington. Still others describe the struggle to bring social, medical, and educational institutions to the region, a struggle in which women religious workers played a key role. The letters-and the editors' fascinating annotations-provide an engaging and insightful look at an important period in the history of the Pacific Northwest and southwest Canada.

Описание:
In mid-twelfth century Mongolia, a baby boy was born clutching a blood clot in his fist, a sign portending future greatness and power. As a young man, against horrific odds, he rose from poverty, slavery, and obscurity to build the world's largest contiguous land empire. His father named him Tem jin, but he became known to the world as Genghis Khan.
Forger of Empire, by Jeanne Maxant Blanchet, PhD, is based on the shrewd, brutal conqueror's incredible story. Rare is the book on the military warrior and political leader that does not focus on his legendary career or sex life (he had over 500 wives and concubines, not to mention multiple casual liasons). Blanchet's Forger of Empire breathes new life into the already larger-than-life character by focusing on his personality development and psychological strengths and weaknesses. With Blanchet's skilled and knowledgeable guidance, lovers of historical fiction and adventure novels will thrill at getting a fictionalized look at the "man behind the mask."
