Synopsis

In his monumental work, "The History of Crusades," Joseph François Michaud offers a detailed exploration of the religious and military campaigns that spanned the medieval period. Comprising three comprehensive volumes, Michaud employs a meticulous narrative style, incorporating rich descriptions and primary sources that illuminate both the fervor and complexities of the Crusades. The book thoughtfully situates these events within the broader socio-political context of medieval Europe and the Near East, making it an indispensable resource for understanding the intertwining of faith, power, and cultural exchange during this tumultuous era. Joseph François Michaud, a prominent French historian and writer of the early 19th century, was deeply influenced by the romantic nationalism of his time. His keen interest in history, particularly that of the Middle Ages, catalyzed his extensive research on the Crusades. Michaud's background as a journalist and his experiences in revolutionary France equipped him with the analytical tools necessary to dissect these complex historical narratives and present them with both depth and clarity. This exhaustive work is highly recommended for scholars, students, and enthusiasts of medieval history alike, providing not just a chronicling of events but also a profound understanding of the motivations and consequences of the Crusades. Michaud's elegant prose and thorough scholarship make "The History of Crusades" an essential addition to any serious historical library.

    “For those who love baseball, the game holds deep personal meaning and echoes to the past that are undeniable but often hard to articulate. Christian Sheppard’s The Ancient Wisdom of Baseball is a love letter to baseball that explains its connections to our inner lives and to classical lore in a way that makes one pine for Opening Day.”  —THEO EPSTEIN
 
Who are you, how are you supposed to live, and what about happiness? Answers to age-old questions are offered in classic myths about heroes, gods, and monsters, and at the ballgame.
 
In The Ancient Wisdom of Baseball, author Christian Sheppard interweaves Homer’s epics with glorious stories from the green fields of America’s pastime, celebrating Achilles’ courage and Odysseus’ cunning along with the virtues of Hall of Fame
    players such as Jackie Robinson and Babe Ruth and of great teams such as the 2004 Red Sox and the 2016 Cubs. Along the way, Sheppard humorously recollects trying to raise his baby daughter true to the teachings of ancient myth and his beloved game.
    The result is an endearing, insightful, and inspiring guide to cultivating virtue and becoming the hero of your own life’s odyssey.

    How the Republican Party transformed from the Party of Lincoln to the Party of Lee 
 
The Republican House Divided is the first comprehensive study of the relationships between the Republican Party and Civil War memory in the twentieth century. Tim Galsworthy reveals how rival Republicans deployed Civil War memory to support, oppose, and ultimately shape the GOP's transformation, during the civil rights era, into a racially conservative party. Drawing on extensive archival research, Galsworthy underlines how references to the past were vitally important to Republican Party politicians as they negotiated their party's positions toward African American civil rights and attempted to appeal to erstwhile white Southern Democrats. Paying attention to a range of actors—including national party leaders, southern conservatives, prominent progressives, and defiant Black Republicans—he traces the actions of Republican politicians and operatives from across the party's ideological and geographical spectrums as they struggled to control and direct party messaging, strategy, and policy. The Republican House Divided is a timely work, offering insight into how the "Party of Lincoln" started on the road to becoming the GOP of today.
