Описание:

A wild biography of Daniel Boone that seeks to define and examine the figurehead of the American Man through a rich inspection of the complex and problematic context of American frontier history.

Acclaimed Biographer and Emergent Conservationist Daniel Firth Griffith provides a wild and engaging portrait of a great American Icon, Daniel Boone. Delivered with the challenging nuance of a historian and the arresting style of a poet, Griffiths work seeks to reignite and engage the soul of American wildness. Boone: An Unfinished Portrait is a search party to find Daniel Boone, its journey is that of his storys canvas, and its purpose is to uncover a man to unfurl a hope built in reciprocity, connection, and understanding.

Fascinating, balanced, and well-researched, this nature-centered biography is sure to entertain and inform. - Publishers Weekly.

A tantalizing biography for those who love and live for wild places. - Jim Howell, author of For the Love of Land.

Griffiths work] surpasses the biography genres standard of simply being informative and lands squarely in edifying. This book isnt just for Daniel Boone fanatics. Its a much-needed celebration of truth and virtue in a frantic world that could use a good story. - Kip Henderson.

An arresting, raw, and sensitive account of a remarkable man and an extraordinary life and] told with the robust accuracy of a researcher and the engaging style of a poet. - Daniela Ibarra-Howell, Chief Executive Officer & Co-Founder of the Savory Institute.

A superb study that clears away the fog and mythology of Boone as the pathfinder for civilization. - Dr. Dan Monroe, Professor of History at Millikin University and the author of The Republican Vision of John Tyler.

Griffith dispenses with the trite mythology of Boones legend to explore the philosophical underpinnings of the man and his tumultuous, transitional era. - Leo Dillon.

Griffith makes Boones life and the period alive and vivid widening the aperture on the human condition. An important read and reminder that history isnt defined by one person, one act, one event, but daily interaction with others, our times, our environment over a lifetime. - Tom Maj.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - -

We know the name, but do we know the man? Was Daniel Boone a woodsman-philosopher or American Patriot? Boone was and is still today a convenient symbol, employed by anyone who thinks they are an American. But what if he wasnt an American? And what if he doesnt want our employment?

In this sensitive and philosophical work, we dive into the rich mythology of American literature, poetry, and history alongside Indigenous mythology and wisdom to find the man of Daniel Boone. From Whitman to Emerson, Muir to Turner, we peel back Daniels forest - gently of course, for leaves are fragile and we dont want to disturb that beaver to your left as he creates an ecologically-rich wetland - and attempt to see him as he saw himself. Perhaps, in the naivety and purity of this place, we may also learn something about ourselves.

If history is the art of trying to know better, then this book is written for those who are ready for the task-to unveil the woods of our mythology and discover a story that we may not be entirely comfortable with. The lesson of this story is not progress, but pain, not empire, but empathy. This is the story of just a man-a great man but a man nonetheless. Perhaps, that makes it the very best kind of American story.

Описание: Scholarly study of Samuel continues to wrestle with how we interpret this pivotal text. Even such basic matters as the question of what kind of literature it is remain unresolved while older questions such as the nature of its text and sources are debated anew in the light of material from Qumran and of current approaches to Hebrew narrative. Recognizing the importance of questions such as these, David Firth explores and introduces fresh ways of reading Samuel as a unified and yet complex text, which displays high levels both of literary artistry and of theological commitment. Although some stories in the books of Samuel are well known, and in the case of David and Goliath even proverbial, much of the content of these books is strange to modern readers. It is a story about a woman wanting a child, for example, that relates the beginnings of monarchy within Israel. Even the question of the monarchy is problematic, for we are introduced to not one royal family but two—those of Saul and David. David is ultimately shown to be the king chosen by God, yet by the end of the book he is only just managing to hold on to the kingdom as it is nearly torn from him by rivalries within his family. These arresting stories are perplexing, for Samuel’s writers seldom tell us how to read and interpret them. Firth presents these complex and fascinating stories as part of a bigger picture, enabling students to chart their way through the literary and historical issues of the Samuel narrative. Firth addresses issues of historicity, sources, date and authorship, as well as -- crucially -- appreciating the text as a literary whole.

Описание:

A wild biography of Daniel Boone through a sensative and rich examination of his wilderness, the Early American West.

"For those of us who love and live for wild places, Griffith's account of the life of Daniel Boone elicits both joy and heartache. We are tantalized by images of pristine natural abundance, yet simultaneously dejected as we realize what we've lost. But, we are left inspired-to live lives of integrity, as did Boone-always fair, generous, and faithful to his friends and family, but also to his own passions and compulsions. And, we are left compelled to work toward healing and regenerating this lost Eden-to becoming new natives that build back, rather than extractive pioneers." - Jim Howell, CEO of Grasslands, LLC, and author of For the Love of Land-Global Case Studies of Grazing in Nature's Image.

We know the name, but do we know the man? Was Daniel Boone a woodsman-philosopher or American Patriot? Boone was and is still today a convenient symbol, employed by anyone who thinks they are an American. But what if he wasn't an American? And what if he doesn't want our employment?

In this sensitive and philosophical work, we dive into the rich mythology of American literature, poetry, and history alongside Indigenous mythology and wisdom to find the man of Daniel Boone. From Whitman to Emerson, Muir to Turner, we peel back Daniel's forest - gently of course, for leaves are fragile and we don't want to disturb that beaver to your left as he creates an ecologically-rich wetland - and attempt to see him as he saw himself. Perhaps, in the naivety and purity of this place, we may also learn something about ourselves.

History is the art of trying to know better and this book is written for those who are ready for the task-to peel back the woods of our very white mythology and discover a story that we may not be entirely comfortable with. The lesson of this story is not progress, but pain, not empire, but empathy. It is the story of just a man.

Описание: A special edition of an outstanding academic study

Firth's 'Cromwell's Army' has long been recognised as an essential classic. It describes in detail the structure, formations, equipment and practices of the Parliamentarian Army as it fought in the English Civil War, Ireland and elsewhere, and also examines the English army prior to the Civil War and describes the creation of the New Model Army. What makes this edition of Firth special is that the author makes reference to the illustrations by Francis Grose, of clothing, equipment and drill of Cromwell's Army, that he was familiar with but which did not appear in the original editions of this book. For the first time this Leonaur edition includes Grose's illustrations in the text for easy reference by modern readers. The cornerstone of the Parliamentarian soldier's cause was a matter of faith and Leonaur has therefore also included in this edition two essential facsimiles, 'The Soldier's Pocket Bible' and 'The Soldier's Catechism, ' which were specially created for the men of the Parliamentarian Army. These elements combine with Firth's text to make this new edition a unique, comprehensive and academic volume that will be an invaluable addition to the libraries of students of the period.
Leonaur editions are newly typeset and are not facsimiles; each title is available in softcover and hardback with dustjacket; our hardbacks are cloth bound and feature gold foil lettering on their spines and fabric head and tail bands.
