Sinopse

Military Bases examines the extensive network of U.S. military bases around the world, exploring their evolution from post-World War II to today. It analyzes the strategic and economic consequences of these bases, contributing to debates about foreign intervention and military force. The book highlights how these bases, while intended to ensure global security and promote economic growth, can also generate socio-political issues that undermine their benefits. One key insight is how the establishment of these bases has shifted due to changes in the geopolitical landscape. The book approaches the topic with a blend of historical analysis, strategic assessment, and economic evaluation, using both primary and secondary sources to support its arguments. It considers the effects on both the U.S. and host nations, accounting for job creation, infrastructure development, and negative consequences like environmental impacts. Case studies from regions like Europe, Asia, and the Middle East illustrate specific local contexts and challenges. The book progresses from historical foundations to regional case studies and concludes with policy recommendations for a more sustainable approach.

    That Dazzling Sun, Book 2 in The Tinsmith's Apprentice trilogy, continues the vivid coming-of-age story of Isaac Granger, slave to Thomas Jefferson, begun in Bechtel's marvelously adept debut novel, "A Partial Sun" in which Isaac begins his complicated apprenticeship at age fifteen as a tinsmith in Philadelphia in the fall of 1790.In this second book, Rachel Bringhouse, the tinsmith's daughter and Isaac's tutur, sails off to Englad to work alongside the famous social activist and poet, Hannah Moore, writing enthusiastic letters to Isaac and which Isaac answers back with assistance from the irrepressibly poetic cook's helper, Ovid. Meanwhile, Billey gardner, the feisty and opportunistic former slave of James Madison, pesters Isaac with notions of a business partnership; the charismatic Dr. Cornelius Sharp uses Isaac to confront Jefferson as a debt-ridden slaveowner; and the Reverend Richard Allen provides Isaac with a most surprising document.When an exuberant Rachel returns from England with a key insight and Isaac's hated nemesis Daniel Shady reappears, bent on revenge, the book rises to its crescendo, in which Isaac must rise to his own power and bargain at last with Thomas Jefferson on his own terms.

    The strange and varied lives of the ten children of the world's most beloved novelistCharles Dickens, famous for the indelible child characters he created—from Little Nell to Oliver Twist and David Copperfield—was also the father of ten children (and a possible eleventh). What happened to those children is the fascinating subject of Robert Gottlieb's Great Expectations. With sympathy and understanding he narrates the highly various and surprising stories of each of Dickens's sons and daughters, from Kate, who became a successful artist, to Frank, who died in Moline, Illinois, after serving a grim stretch in the Royal Canadian Mounted Police.Each of these lives is fascinating on its own. Together they comprise a unique window on Victorian England as well as a moving and disturbing study of Dickens as a father and as a man.
