Beschreibung

In "On the Plains with Custer," Edwin L. Sabin immerses readers in the tumultuous landscape of the American West during the late 19th century. The book provides a vivid narrative that interlaces the life of General George Armstrong Custer with broader themes of American expansionism and the complexities of Native American relations. Sabin's writing employs a robust, yet accessible literary style that is both evocative and informative, revealing a deep understanding of the historical context surrounding Custer'Äôs military campaigns. Through meticulous research and engaging prose, Sabin constructs a compelling portrayal that situates Custer not just as a military figure, but as a symbol of the era's ambitions and conflicts. Edwin L. Sabin was a prolific American author known for his dedication to chronicling the American frontier. His passion for the West was sparked by personal experiences and an insatiable curiosity about the lives of its inhabitants. Sabin's extensive background in historical literature, coupled with his affinity for adventure tales, led him to explore Custer'Äôs controversial legacy, illuminating the duality of fame and infamy within the narrative of American history. "On the Plains with Custer" is an essential read for anyone interested in American history, military strategy, or the intricacies of cultural encounters. Sabin's articulate and immersive storytelling invites readers to critically engage with the historical complexities that shaped the American West, making it a valuable addition to both casual readers and scholars alike.

    ­­­As the battle of words over the future of Scotland as a democracy, nation and society continues, A Better Nation: The Challenges of Scottish Independence aims to go beyond the superficial divisions and media noise in order to address matters of real substance. Drawing on a range of original thinkers from a wide range of backgrounds, it tackles key issues about money, culture, equality, energy, borders, jobs, Europe and other 'big questions' head on.
    
    A Better Nation illustrates the high stakes in this debate, as well as the opportunities it affords. Outlining political approaches which are respectful of different views, doubts and ambiguities, it asks what kind of society we want to create and how we want to govern ourselves. The nature of the British state and Scottish democracy, the need to tackle inequalities, the challenges of centre-left politics, the climate emergency and the pressing need for a wellbeing economy are put at the heart of the discussion about independence.

    In his work On Interpretation, Aristotle seeks to uncover the underlying principles of language and meaning. He begins by examining the nature of signs and symbols, and how they are used to communicate information. He then goes on to explore the relationship between language and reality, and how our understanding of words is shaped by our experience of the world. Ultimately, Aristotle concludes that language is a tool for understanding reality, and that its meaning is determined by the way we use it. Read in English, unabridged.

    ‘Pembrokeshire’s Past’ vividly and unforgettably brings to life the boisterous and turbulent history of this little-known Welsh peninsula jutting out into the Irish Sea. The book is a fascinating and unforgettable read. A great glacier overrode the mountains in the north and produced the blue stones of Stonehenge. Upper Palaeolithic mammoth hunters sheltered in limestone caves. As the climate warmed, Mesolithic people were followed by Neolithic people who left their spectacular stone burial chambers. Rising sea levels produced sunken forests around the coast. Bronze Age people left stone circles and burial mounds. Iron Age Celtic settlers left many hill forts. Turbulence followed with Roman, Irish, Viking and Norman invasions. The latter left the great stone castles. The Civil War was strongly contested. Lord Palmerston built many forts in the south. A great naval shipbuilding yard operated in Pembroke Dock. For beach walkers, the flora and fauna from the Amazon and Caribbean that wash ashore are described in all their remarkable and colourful detail.
