Summary

In "The Late War Between the United States and Great Britain," Gilbert J. Hunt offers a detailed and poignant account of the War of 1812, intertwining historical facts with vivid narratives that evoke the tumult of early 19th-century America. Written in a dynamic, journalistic style, Hunt's prose navigates the complexities of national identity and conflict, employing a rich tapestry of firsthand accounts, governmental correspondence, and public sentiment. Through careful analysis, he places the war within its broader literary context, capturing the sentiments of patriotism and the quest for sovereignty that characterized the era, while also exploring the tensions that arose in the wake of independence. Gilbert J. Hunt, an astute historian and political commentator, draws from his background in law and politics to craft this compelling narrative. His extensive research was fueled by a desire to illuminate the often-overlooked aspects of the War of 1812 and its implications on American society and foreign policy. This context enriches his exploration of the war, presenting it not merely as a military conflict but as a pivotal moment in the establishment of a national identity. Highly recommended for historians and casual readers alike, Hunt's work is a vital contribution to the literature surrounding the War of 1812. Its balanced perspective and engaging storytelling make it an essential read for anyone interested in understanding the origins of modern America and its enduring legacy.

    Thoreau? I know him! Well, I know the name. I’m sure I know who he is… don’t I? The nature guy, right? 
    Henry David Thoreau’s spiritual life is a riddle. Thoreau’s passionate critique of formal religion is matched only by his rapturous descriptions of encounters with the divine in nature. He fled the church only to pursue a deeper communion with a presence he felt at the heart of the universe. He called this illimitable presence many names, but he often called it God. 
    In Thoreau’s God, Richard Higgins invites seekers — religious or otherwise — to walk with the great Transcendentalist through a series of meditations on his spiritual life. Thoreau offers us no creed, but his writings encourage reflection on how to live, what to notice, and what to love. Though his quest was deeply personal, Thoreau devoted his life to communicating his experience of an infinite, wild, life-giving God. By recovering this vital thread in Thoreau’s life and work, Thoreau’s God opens the door to a new understanding of an original voice in American religion that speaks to spiritual seekers today.

    The Crimean War was an army war between Russia and an alliance of France, the Ottoman Empire, the UK, and Sardinia that lasted from October 1853 to February 1856. The rights of Christian minority in Palestine, which became part of the Ottoman Empire, were the instant reason for the war. The rights of Roman Catholics were promoted by the French, while those of the Eastern Orthodox Church were promoted by Russia.Longer-term elements included the Ottoman Empire's fall, the Russian Empire's development at the time of the preceding Russo-Turkish Wars, and the British and French desire to safeguard the Ottoman Empire to maintain the Show of Europe's power balance. It has been commonly observed that the causes, that included a difference over a type in one case, never ever suggested a "bigger confusion of purpose" but instead caused a dispute well-known for its "infamously inexperienced worldwide butchery."Let’s learn more about this often-forgotten war.
