  In this new edition, Samuel P. Hays expands the scope of his pioneering account of the ways in which Americans reacted to industrialism during its early years from 1885 to 1914. Hays now deepens his coverage of cultural transformations in a study well known for its concise treatment of political and economic movements.Hays draws on the vast knowledge of America’s urban and social history that has been developed over the last thirty-eight years to make the second edition an unusually well-rounded study. He enhances the original coverage of politics, labor, and business with new accounts of the growth of cities, the rise of modern values, cultural conflicts with Native Americans and foreign nations, and changing roles for women, African-Americans, education, religion, medicine, law, and leisure. The result is a tightly woven portrait of America in transition that underscores the effects of impersonal market forces and greater personal freedom on individuals and chronicles such changes as the rise of social inequality, shifting power, in the legal system, the expansion of the federal government, and the formation of the Populist, Progressive, and Socialist parties.

  An extraordinary true story of survival and courage through the Holocaust. 
   
   
   
  Poland, 1943. It was the last refuge of the desperate, a warren of sewers underneath their city. Above, as the Nazis destroyed the ghetto of the city of Lvov, a small band of Jews escaped into a grim network of tunnels, living for fourteen months with the city's waste, the sudden floods, the fumes and the damp, the rats, the darkness, and the despair. 
   
   
   
  Their only support was a lone sewer worker, an ex-criminal who constantly threatened to leave them. Many died; some falling into the rushing waters of the river, some simply of exhaustion. At one point the survivors found themselves trapped in a chamber, filling to the roof with storm-water. 
   
   
   
  Yet survive they did, even infiltrating the camps above to find their missing relatives. When the Russians liberated Lvov, they emerged from the sewers filthy, bent double, emaciated, unrecognizable . . . but alive. 
   
   
   
  This powerful story based on a long series of interviews, and a hitherto private diary, creates a blazing testimony to human faith and endurance.

  Step aboard the HMS History and set sail on an epic voyage with "The Letters & Journals of Lord Nelson,” brought to life by the incomparable Charles Dance. 
   
  Discover the remarkable life of Viscount Horatio Nelson (1758-1805), the legendary "Hero" of his time. As a daring commander and strategic genius, Nelson's legacy is woven into the fabric of British naval history. From his triumph at the Battle of Cape St Vincent to the awe-inspiring victories at the Nile (1798) and Copenhagen (1801), his story unfolds with unparalleled drama. 
   
  Delve into the complex tapestry of Nelson's life, marked by both brilliance and scandal. His unapologetic arrogance stands in stark contrast to his passionate, scandalous love affair with the captivating Emma Hamilton. 
   
  But the ultimate chapter of his saga is written in blood on the decks of the HMS Victory. On the fateful day of October 21, 1805, Lord Nelson met his heroic end, struck down by a musket shot during the Battle of Trafalgar, securing the greatest naval victory in Royal Navy history. 
   
  In "The Letters & Journals of Lord Nelson," you'll experience history like never before. Immerse yourself in the intimate words of the man himself, as his personal letters and journals reveal the audacious exploits and deep emotions of England's greatest hero. 
   
  Also available as part of the CLASSIC LETTERS & JOURNALS BOX SET, a sixteen hour, seven-volume edition featuring the letters and journals of Lord Nelson, Charlotte Brontë, Scott of the Antarctic, Queen Victoria, Lord Byron, Jane Austen and Dorothy Wordsworth.
