Описание: The best new research on medieval clothing and textiles, drawing from a variety of angles and approaches.The essays here take us from the eleventh century, with an exploration of the Bayeux Tapestry, into an examination and reconstruction of an extant thirteenth-century sleeve in France which provides a rare and early example of medieval quilted armour, and finally on to late medieval Sweden and the reconstruction of gilt-leather intarsia coverlets. A study of construction techniques and the evolution of form of gable and French hoods in the late medieval and the early modern periods follows; and the volume also includes a study of the Great Wardrobe under Edward I of England, and what it can tell us about textiles at the time.

Описание:
The first half of the 19th century was an era of upheaval. The United States nearly lost the War of 1812. Partisanship became endemic during violent clashes regarding States' Rights and the abolition of slavery. The battle between Andrew Jackson and Nicholas Biddle over the Second Bank of the United States epitomized a nation in turmoil: Biddle, the erudite aristocrat versus Jackson, the plain-spoken warrior. The conflict altered America's political arena.
In 1832, President Andrew Jackson vowed to kill the Central Bank, setting in motion the infamous Bank War that almost bankrupted the nation. Under Biddle's guidance, the Second Bank of the United States had become the most stable financial institution in the world. Biddle fought Jackson with tenacity and vigor; so did members of Congress not under the sway of "Old Hickory." Jackson accused Biddle of treason; Biddle declared that the president promoted anarchy. The fight riveted the nation.
The United States is experiencing a reappearance of deep schisms within our population. They hearken back to the earliest debates about the federal government's role regarding fiduciary responsibility and social welfare. The ideological descendants of Nicholas Biddle and Andrew Jackson are as polarized today as they were during the nineteenth century.
With this book, author Cordelia Frances Biddle documents the epic fight between Nicholas Biddle and Andrew Jackson over the fate of the Second Bank of the United States, shedding new light with previously undiscovered documents while bringing the story to life in a compelling biography of political intrigue.

Описание: Forced into the underground by an oppressive global government, a brilliant engineer, Slade, has secretly developed the most revolutionary biotechnology mankind has ever known...but when he and his wife are brutally murdered, a vicious liaison of a hellish dimension tears Slade across space and time, damning him to a dark netherworld. Fooled into bartering his scientific knowledge for a second chance at life, Slade is forced to use that technology to survive his resurrection. Now, more a demonic machine than man, Slade must journey through the wilderness of the hell dimension in an unlikely alliance with demons. As he hones his skills to exact his revenge, he learns that the stakes are higher than he ever anticipated - he must prevent apocalypse at the hands of his power-hungry captor from the netherworld, whose traitorous plot supersedes even the evil designs of Hell`s rulers. The ultimate conflict explodes through the fabric of both dimensions. As man and demon spill blood and evil closes in from every quarter, can Slade learn to use his newfound strength, and hatred, to destroy his nemesis? In the midst of fighting for his life in the wilds of an alien dimension, Slade experiences revelations that throw into question everything that he thought he knew, thought he believed...thought he was. With his entire reality thrown into upheaval and the countdown to apocalypse looming, can Slade regain control of his shattered mind and altered body in time to find the truth and overcome the forces of destruction?
