Beschreibung

Church Crown Tensions delves into the centuries-long struggle between English monarchs and religious institutions, a conflict that profoundly shaped English history. This book explores how the pursuit of power and wealth fueled clashes between the Crown and the Church, impacting the development of English common law and ultimately leading to the Reformation.

 
One key tension revolved around wealth; for example, the Statute of Mortmain was enacted to curb the Church's accumulation of land. Another significant point of contention was legal jurisdiction, highlighted by the conflict between Henry II and Thomas Becket over the Constitutions of Clarendon.

 
The book chronologically examines the evolving power dynamic from Henry II's attempts to control the Church to Henry VIII's break with Rome. It analyzes legal, economic, and ideological battles, showcasing how the Crown sought to assert royal supremacy. By examining primary sources and legal documents, Church Crown Tensions offers a unique perspective on this continuous negotiation of power, making it a valuable resource for understanding the roots of political and religious authority in England.

Normandy to Nazi Surrender -...

Patrecia Slayden Hollis, Colonel...

The late Van Slayden trained on the PT-3 kite-like biplane in 1937, but he learned fighter pilot operations flying "by the seat of his pants," walking away from five crashes. Shortly after the invasion of Normandy, he landed on Utah Beach to help establish a US Army Air Forces' (AAF's) presence in Europe. He flew the P-47 Thunderbolt, a fighter-bomber, in combat over Northern France and commanded the 36th Fighter Group-the "Fightin' 36th-at Batogne, St. Vith, the Bridgehead at Remagen, Operations Grenade, Clarion, Varsity and other missions. His 22nd Fighter Squadron was the first in the AAF to land voluntarily on German soil. 
 
 
 
He was deep into Germany when the Nazis surrendered on May 8, 1945, which was remarkably anticlimactic. Van Slayden, a country boy from rural Tennessee, like so many of his contemporaries, stepped up to the challenge as part of the Greatest Generation.
