Описание: George Gordon Meade has not been treated kindly by history. Victorious at Gettysburg, the biggest battle of the American Civil War, Meade was the longest-serving commander of the Army of the Potomac, leading his army through the brutal Overland Campaign and on to the surrender of Robert E. Lee and the Army of Northern Virginia at Appomattox. Serving alongside his new superior, Ulysses S. Grant, in the last year of the war, his role has been overshadowed by the popular Grant. This first full-length study of Meade’s two-year tenure as commander of the Army of the Potomac brings him out of Grant’s shadow and into focus as one of the top three Union generals of the war.John G. Selby portrays a general bestride a large army he could manage well and a treacherous political environment he neither fully understood nor cared to engage. Meade’s time as commander began on a high note with the victory at Gettysburg, but when he failed to fight Lee’s retreating army that July and into the fall of 1863, the political knives came out. Meade spent the winter of 1863–64 struggling to retain his job while the Joint Committee on the Conduct of the War sought to have him dismissed. Meade offered to resign, but Grant told him to keep his job. Together, they managed the Overland Campaign and the initial attacks on Petersburg and Richmond in 1864.By basing his study on the Official Records of the War of the Rebellion, original Meade letters, and the letters, diaries, journals, and reminiscences of contemporaries, Selby demonstrates that Meade was a much more active, thoughtful, and enterprising commander than has been assumed. This sensitive and reflective man accepted a position that was as political as it was military, despite knowing that the political dimensions of the job might ultimately destroy what he valued the most, his reputation.

Описание: Everyday Words and the Character of Prose in Nineteenth-Century Britain is an innovative study of the stylistic tics of canonical novelists including Austen, Dickens, Trollope, Thackeray and Eliot. Jonathan Farina shows how ordinary locutions such as `a decided turn`, `as if` and `that sort of thing` condense nineteenth-century manners, aesthetics and assumptions about what counts as knowledge.

Описание: This book re-visits and re-thinks some recent defining events in Irish society. Some of these are high profile and occupy a prominent place in public consciousness, such as the announcement of the banking guarantee and the publication of the Ryan report into clerical child abuse, while others are 'fringe' events which attracted less attention, such as the launch of Indymedia.ie, or were widely discussed in popular culture, like the publication of Donal Уg Cusack's autobiography or the opening of Dundrum Town Centre. The book critically explores issues of equality, belonging and rights as they impact on diverse communities in Ireland, be they older people, migrants or LGBT people. As focal points for each chapter, all of the events covered in the book provide rich insights into the dynamics of Irish society in the twenty-first century. All expose underlying and complex issues of identity, power and resistance that animate public debate. In so doing, the book ultimately encourages readers to question the sources of, limits and obstacles to change in contemporary Ireland. This book brings together in a single volume the experience, research and analysis of critical commentators from a diverse range of disciplines across the social sciences, and provides an important contribution to discourse about social, economic and cultural issues in today's Ireland. This makes for an original, timely and genuinely inter-disciplinary text.
Fatal Shadows (1933): In the early morning hours after the natives' frenetic celebration of the Sultan's birthday, beautiful Ailsa Brownley is found brutally slain by a Malay kris outside the Government Rest House at Johor Bahru, capital of the state of Johor, British Malaya. Local officials would dearly love to pin the guilt for this ghastly crime on a native inhabitant and quickly write it off, but it soon becomes all too troublingly clear that there is no shortage of British and American visitors who wanted the alluring and amoral Ailsa dead, either on account of her fatal beauty or her furtive scheming. In over his head in a murder case concerning colonials, Office Campbell turns to his canny native Malayan assistant, Ismael, to delve into the mysteries of human desire and uncover the shocking truth.
Death Over Her Shoulder (1939): A miasma of murder envelops Nancy Reynolds, a beautiful New Englander alone and in trouble in British Malaya Arriving at an isolated rubber plantation during a heavy downpour, Nancy enters the dark bungalow of the kindly woman, Lydia Bosworth, whom she hopes might help her--only to find Lydia dead on the sofa, most foully murdered. Everywhere the police look, they find only secrets and lies, by no means the least of which concern the frightened and desperate Nancy herself. Cleary this is another case for the canny police investigator Ismael, "one of the smartest detectives in the East." As the bodies pile up on the plantation like bales of rubber and Nancy herself is perilously menaced, Ismael relentlessly tracks the bloody trail of a remorseless killer.
