Beschreibung

Mexican Independence explores the multifaceted struggle that led to Mexico's separation from Spain, moving beyond a simple recounting of events to examine the complex interplay of socio-political conditions, diverse ideologies, and key figures. The book highlights how the rigid social hierarchy of New Spain, particularly the discontent of the Criollo class excluded from high office, combined with Enlightenment ideals to fuel the independence movement. It delves into the roles of influential leaders like Miguel Hidalgo, José María Morelos, and Agustín de Iturbide, illustrating how their shifting alliances and ideological disagreements shaped the nascent nation. 

 
The book is structured to first explore New Spain's pre-1810 conditions, then analyze the independence movement's major battles and regional variations, and finally examine the turbulent aftermath, including the establishment of the First Mexican Empire. By drawing on primary sources and secondary scholarship, it provides a balanced treatment of the subject, revealing that Mexican nation-building was not a unified movement but a complex struggle with profound implications. Understanding Mexico's path to self-determination offers valuable insights into decolonization processes and the challenges faced by newly independent nations.

Mansa Musa and the Empire of...

P. James Oliver

Oliver's well-researched biography of Mansa Musa reads like an exotic tale of gold, glory, and adventure. During his long reign as Mali's emperor, Mansa Musa led his empire into its Golden Age; presided over a spectacular, 60,000 person, 9,000 mile pilgrimage; founded a university in Timbuktu; and helped revolutionize architecture across the Sudan. Oliver does not allow Musa's story to get bogged down in detail by seamlessly weaving a lot of history into his narrative and by supplying curious readers with an extensive description. 
Many of the African ancestors of today's African-Americans came from West Africa. From 700 -- 1600 A. D., one after the other, three great, black, commercial empires dominated West Africa. They were powerful, prosperous, complex, stable -- and large. At its height, the Empire of Mali was the size of all of Western Europe.

End of World War II in the...

Editors Charles River

By the spring of 1943, American military planners had begun to create a plan to dislodge Japan from east and southeast Asia. To do so, parts of the Philippines were considered main strategic points in the potential Allied attack in the Pacific. The end goal of the Allied plan was an invasion of the Japanese home islands, in which heavy aerial bombardment would precede a ground assault. In order for this to occur, Allied forces would have to occupy areas surrounding Japan, with China adding to Luzon (the largest island in the Philippines) and Formosa (a large island off the coast of China) to create a triangle from which they could launch their bombers. 
When Admiral Chester Nimitz was directed to capture an island in the Bonin group, Iwo Jima stood out for its importance in making progress against the mainland, with three airfields that would allow American air forces to attack the Japanese mainland. But the Japanese were also well aware of how important Iwo Jima was, and they fought desperately in bunkers and tunnels that required the Americans to carefully clear them out gradually.  
Near the end of 1944, as Allied forces were pushing across the Pacific and edging ever closer to Japan, plans were drawn up to invade the Ryuku islands, the most prominent of them being Okinawa. Given the horrific nature of the combat, and the fact that it was incessant for several weeks, it’s no surprise that Okinawa had a profound psychological effect on the men who fought, but it also greatly influenced the thinking of military leaders who were planning subsequent campaigns, including a potential invasion of the Japanese mainland. The casualty tolls at Okinawa ultimately helped compel President Truman to use the atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki in an effort to end the war before having to attempt such an invasion.
