Summary

The "Manual for Noncommissioned Officers and Privates of Infantry of the Army of the United States" serves as a foundational text for understanding military conduct and infantry operations during a pivotal era in American history. Written in a straightforward and instructional style, this manual encapsulates the protocols, responsibilities, and core values expected of noncommissioned officers and privates in the United States Army. Through detailed explanations and structured illustrations, it provides essential guidance on discipline, drill routines, and the overall ethos of the military, reflective of the rigorous demands placed upon soldiers in times of conflict. Compiled by the U.S. War Department, this manual emerges from a historical context marked by significant military engagements, including the Civil War and post-war reconstruction. The Department aimed to create a uniform standard of training and education for the ranks, ensuring that soldiers were well-prepared and skilled in both leadership and tactics. The necessity for such a manual arose from the experiences and lessons learned on the battlefield, driving the need for a comprehensive guide to maintain order and efficacy within the infantry. This essential manual is highly recommended for scholars, historians, and military enthusiasts alike, as it not only delves into the practicalities of soldiering but also reveals insights into the military's evolving philosophy. It serves as a critical resource for understanding the historical development of military practice in the United States and continues to resonate with those interested in military studies and organizational dynamics.

    Drawing the Line - What to Do...

    Recent years have proven rife with revelations about the misdeeds, objectional views, and, in some instances, crimes of popular artists. Given more access than ever thanks to social media and the internet in general, the public has turned an alert and critical eye upon the once-hidden lives of previously cherished entertainers. But what should we members of the public do, think, and feel in response to these artists' actions or statements? It's a predicament that many of us face: whether it's possible to disentangle the deeply unsettled feelings we have toward an artist from how we respond to the art they produced. As consumers of art, and especially as fans, we have a host of tricky moral question to navigate: do the moral lives of artists affect the aesthetic quality of their work? Is it morally permissible for us to engage with or enjoy that work? Can we separate an artist from their art? 
 
 
 
In Drawing the Line, Erich Hatala Matthes offers insight and clarity to the ethical questions that dog us. He argues that it doesn't matter whether we can separate the art from the artist, because we shouldn't. Matthes argues both that the lives of artists can play an important role in shaping our moral and aesthetic relationship to the artworks that we love and that these same artworks offer us powerful resources for grappling with the immorality of their creators.

- Conversations about your kids devolve into accusations and arguments. 
- Your children often become pawns in power plays. 
- Decisions about schooling, healthcare, or simple routines become epic sagas. 
- You're left feeling stressed, anxious, or upset after every interaction with your ex. 
- You fear for your child's emotional wellbeing amidst all the conflict. 
So, are you ready to trade high-drama for high-harmony? 
Are you prepared to redefine your co-parenting journey? Ready to put your kids first in the healthiest way possible? Then it's time to take the next step.

    The World of Juliet Kinzie -...

    When Juliette Kinzie first visited Chicago in 1831, it was anything but a city. An outpost in the shadow of Fort Dearborn, it had no streets, no sidewalks, no schools, no river-spanning bridges. And with two hundred disconnected residents, it lacked any sense of community. In the decades that followed, not only did Juliette witness the city’s transition from Indian country to industrial center, but she was instrumental in its development. 
 
Juliette is one of Chicago’s forgotten founders. Early Chicago is often presented as “a man’s city,” but women like Juliette worked to create an urban and urbane world, often within their own parlors. With The World of Juliette Kinzie, we finally get to experience the rise of Chicago from the view of one of its most important founding mothers. 
 
Ann Durkin Keating offers a moving portrait of a trailblazing and complicated woman. Keating takes us to the corner of Cass and Michigan (now Wabash and Hubbard), Juliette’s home base. Through Juliette’s eyes, our understanding of early Chicago expands from a city of boosters and speculators to include the world that women created in and between households. We see the development of Chicago society, first inspired by cities in the East and later coming into its own midwestern ways. We also see the city become a community, as it developed its intertwined religious, social, educational, and cultural institutions. Keating draws on a wealth of sources, including hundreds of Juliette’s personal letters, allowing Juliette to tell much of her story in her own words. 
 
The World of Juliette Kinzie offers a new perspective on Chicago’s past and is a fitting tribute to one of the first women historians in the United States.
