Summary

The "History of the Fifty-Seventh Regiment, Pennsylvania Veteran Volunteer Infantry" is a detailed account that chronicles the experiences, battles, and daily life of one of the Civil War's prominent regiments. Written in a documentary style that combines personal narratives, military records, and historical analysis, this work offers invaluable insights into the social and political context of the era. The text serves not only as a chronological history but also as a poignant reflection on the sacrifices and camaraderie that defined the regiment, evoking the emotional weight of war through firsthand accounts and rich descriptive passages. Published by various contributors, including veterans and historians, the book emerges from a tradition of military storytelling that sought to preserve the memory of those who served. This initiative may have arisen from a strong sense of duty and nostalgia among veterans who wished to ensure that their experiences and the valor of their fallen comrades were remembered by future generations. The collective effort behind the narrative illustrates a commitment to preserving a critical piece of American history. I highly recommend this book to researchers, Civil War enthusiasts, and casual readers alike. Its comprehensive portrayal of the Fifty-Seventh Regiment not only enriches our understanding of military life during the tumultuous period of the Civil War but also serves as a testament to the enduring human spirit in the face of adversity.

Manifesting Justice - Wrongly...

Valena Beety, Koa Beck

When Valena Beety first became a federal prosecutor, her goal was to protect victims, especially women, from cycles of violence. What she discovered was that not only did prosecutions often fail to help victims, they frequently relied on false information, forensic fraud, and police and prosecutor misconduct. 
 
 
  
Seeking change, Beety began working in the Innocence Movement, helping to free factually innocent people through DNA testing and criminal justice reform. Manifesting Justice focuses on the shocking story of Beety's client Leigh Stubbs—a young, queer woman in Mississippi, convicted of a horrific crime she did not commit because of her sexual orientation. Beety weaves Stubbs's harrowing narrative through the broader story of a broken criminal justice system. 
 
 
  
Drawing on interviews with both innocence advocates and wrongfully convicted women, along with Beety's own experiences as an expert litigator and a queer woman, Manifesting Justice provides a unique outsider/insider perspective. Beety expands our notion of justice to include not just people who are factually innocent, but those who are over-charged, pressured into bad plea deals, and over-sentenced. The result is a riveting and timely book that will transform our very ideas of crime and punishment, what innocence is, and who should be free.

Edinburgh: The Autobiography

Alan Taylor

Relive the history of Edinburgh through the eyes of those who witnessed it.
From one of the earliest mentions of its name in the sixth century to the Covid lockdowns of the twenty-first, this is a magnificent portrait of one of the world's great cities in its many iterations, from 'Edinburgh, the sink of abomination' to the Athens of the North and everything – including the home of the Enlightenment, the Festival City, the Aids Capital of Europe and a Mecca for tourists seeking tartan tat – in between.
As the nation's capital it has been critical to its progress and a witness to epochal events, such the tumultuous reign of Mary, Queen of Scots, the Reformation, the Forty-Five rebellion, the Disruption of the Church of Scotland and the reconvening of the Scottish Parliament. All of these and more feature. But this is not simply a book about the great and good, the famous and infamous. There is testimony aplenty from ordinary folk who may not have made their mark on history but who have contributed to Edinburgh's ever-expanding tapestry.
There are stories of body snatching and murder, drunkenness and drug-taking, sex and shopping, as well rants against inclement weather and the city council.
