Synopsis

In "The History of the French Revolution and Napoleonic Wars (1789-1815)," Charles Downer Hazen offers an astute examination of the tumultuous years that reshaped France and, by extension, the world. Employing a narrative style that is both scholarly and accessible, Hazen meticulously dissects the social, political, and military dimensions of the French Revolution and the subsequent Napoleonic Wars. The book situates these events within a broader historical context, illustrating how revolutionary fervor birthed the age of modern nation-states while also exuding the dramatic tension characteristic of 19th-century historiography. Charles Downer Hazen, an eminent American historian, was deeply influenced by the political upheavals of his time and his academic training at institutions like Columbia University. His extensive research and travel across Europe allowed him to analyze primary sources and contemporary accounts critically. This personal and scholarly journey inspired him to write a comprehensive yet detailed narrative of these pivotal historical events, blending analytical insight with compelling storytelling. This work is recommended for readers seeking a profound understanding of the forces that led to modern democracy and nationalism. Hazen'Äôs ability to capture the complexities of the era makes this book not just a historical account but a vital resource for anyone interested in the enduring impact of the French Revolution and Napoleonic Wars on contemporary governance.

    How to stop making excuses, ditch delaying tactics, and achieve your goals without feeling like it’s a chore. 
    Is there something you want to accomplish but can’t seem to follow through with, whether it’s making healthier choices, learning a new language, or limiting social media time? 
    If so, then CONQUER DISCIPLINE is for you! 
    How often do you give in to distractions or struggle to finish what you’ve started, then beat yourself up for feeling like a failure? 
    Do you wish you could be one of those people who have laser focus and keep their eyes on the prize no matter what? 
    Here’s a reality check: What spells the difference between one’s success and failure is not merely talent, intelligence, or even luck – it’s self-discipline. 
    Self-discipline, according to the dictionary, is the ability to control yourself and to make yourself work hard or behave in a particular way without needing anyone else to tell you what to do. 
    Unfortunately, while the benefits of self-discipline have long been established, it has earned a bad reputation. 
    Many people – perhaps including yourself – react negatively to it, most likely because it’s often associated with ideas of harsh punishment, heavy burden, and basically a rigid, joyless life. 
    But that notion cannot be farther from the truth. In fact, a study has shown that practicing self-control makes you happier and more satisfied both in the moment and in the long run. 
    Experts also say that self-discipline is like a muscle – the more you exercise it, the stronger it gets. The good news is, unlike a rigorous exercise routine, you don’t need to hire a professional trainer or have fancy equipment and tools to master self-discipline - read the book to discover more...

    American Sunshine - Diseases of...

    In the second half of the nineteenth century, American cities began to go dark. Hulking new buildings overspread blocks, pollution obscured the skies, and glass and smog screened out the health-giving rays of the sun. Doctors fed anxities about these new conditions with claims about a rising tide of the "diseases of darkness," especially rickets and tuberculosis. In American Sunshine, Daniel Freund  tracks the obsession with sunlight from those bleak days into the twentieth century.  Before long, social reformers, medical professionals, scientists, and a growing nudist movement proffered remedies for America’s new dark age. Architects, city planners, and politicians made access to sunlight central to public housing and public health. and entrepreneurs, dairymen, and tourism boosters transformed the pursuit of sunlight and its effects into a commodity. Within this historical context, Freund sheds light on important questions about the commodification of health and nature and makes an original contribution to the histories of cities, consumerism, the environment, and medicine.

    Bearing Witness While Black tells the story of this century's most powerful Black social movement through the eyes of fifteen activists who documented it. At the height of the Black Lives Matter uprisings, African Americans filmed and tweeted evidence of fatal police encounters in dozens of US cities—using little more than the device in their pockets. Their urgent dispatches from the frontlines spurred a global debate on excessive police force, which claimed the lives of African American men, women, and children at disproportionate rates. 
     
     
     
    This groundbreaking book reveals how the perfect storm of smartphones, social media, and social justice empowered Black activists to create their own news outlets, which continued a centuries-long, African American tradition of using the news to challenge racism. Bearing Witness While Black is the first book of its kind to identify three overlapping eras of domestic terror against African American people—slavery, lynching, and police brutality—and explain how storytellers during each period documented its atrocities through journalism. What results is a stunning genealogy—of how the slave narratives of the 1700s inspired the Abolitionist movement; how the black newspapers of the 1800s galvanized the anti-lynching and Civil Rights movements; and how the smartphones of today have powered the anti-police brutality movement.
