Описание: How white advocates of emancipation abandoned African American causes in the dark days of Reconstruction, told through the stories of four Minnesotans White people, Frederick Douglass said in a speech in 1876, were \u201cthe children of Lincoln,\u201d while black people were \u201cat best his stepchildren.\u201d Emancipation became the law of the land, and white champions of African Americans in the state were suddenly turning to other causes, regardless of the worsening circumstances of black Minnesotans. Through four of these \u201cchildren of Lincoln\u201d in Minnesota, William D. Green\u2019s book brings to light a little known but critical chapter in the state\u2019s history as it intersects with the broader account of race in America.In a narrative spanning the years of the Civil War and Reconstruction, the lives of these four Minnesotans mark the era\u2019s most significant moments in the state, the Midwest, and the nation for the Republican Party, the Baptist church, women\u2019s suffrage, and Native Americans. Morton Wilkinson, the state\u2019s first Republican senator; Daniel Merrill, a St. Paul business leader who helped launch the first Black Baptist church; Sarah Burger Stearns, founder and first president of the Minnesota Woman Suffragist Association; and Thomas Montgomery, an immigrant farmer who served in the Colored Regiments in the Civil War: each played a part in securing the rights of African Americans and each abandoned the fight as the forces of hatred and prejudice increasingly threatened those hard-won rights. Moving from early St. Paul and Fort Snelling to the Civil War and beyond, The Children of Lincoln reveals a pattern of racial paternalism, describing how even \u201cenlightened\u201d white Northerners, fatigued with the \u201cNegro Problem,\u201d would come to embrace policies that reinforced a notion of black inferiority. Together, their lives—so differently and deeply connected with nineteenth-century race relations—create a telling portrait of Minnesota as a microcosm of America during the tumultuous years of Reconstruction.

Автор: Henninger Thom Название: Tony Oliva: The Life and Times of a Minnesota Twins Legend ISBN: 1517909708 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781517909703 Издательство: Mare Nostrum (Eurospan) Рейтинг: Цена: 16680.00 T Наличие на складе: Нет в наличии. Описание: If not for the botched Bay of Pigs invasion, Minnesota might never have known one of its most popular baseball players, Twins three-time batting champion and eight-time All-Star Tony Oliva. In April 1961, the twenty-two-year-old Cuban prospect failed to impress the Twins in a tryout, but the sudden rupture in U.S.–Cuba relations made a return visa all but impossible. The story of how Oliva’s unexpected stay led to a second chance and success with the Twins-as well as decades of personal and cultural isolation-is told for the first time in this full-scale biography of the man the fans affectionately call “Tony O.”With unprecedented access to the very private Oliva, baseball writer Thom Henninger captures what life was like for the Cuban newcomer as he adjusted to major league play and American culture-and at the same time managed to earn Rookie of the Year honors and win the American League batting title in his first two seasons, all while playing with a knuckle injury. Packed with never-before-published photographs, the book follows Oliva through the 1965 season, all the way to the World Series, and then, with repaired knuckle and knee, into one of the most dramatic pennant races in baseball history in 1967. Through the voices of Oliva, his family, and his teammates-including the Cuban players who shared his cultural challenges and the future Hall of Famers he mentored, Rod Carew and Kirby Puckett-the personal and professional highs and lows of the years come alive: the Gold Glove Award in 1966, a third batting title in 1971, the devastating injury that curtailed his career, and, through it all, the struggle to build a family and recover the large and close-knit one he had left behind in Cuba. Nearly forty years after Oliva’s retirement, the debate continues over whether his injury-shortened career was Hall of Fame caliber-a question that gets a measured and resounding answer here.
