Описание: This book offers insights into why engagement in commercial sex is prolific as sexual culture is transformed in late modernity. Drawing on original empirical data with men who buy sex, the book explores not only `why men buy sex`, but also the sociological and psychological processes that men encounter in order to enter an assumed `deviant` sexual behaviour as part of their everyday lives.

Описание: Some of the most dramatic and consequential events of the Civil War era took place in the South Carolina Lowcountry between Charleston and Savannah. This history tells the story through the experiences of two radically different military units - the Confederate Beaufort Volunteer Artillery and the US 1st South Carolina Regiment.
Three days of savage and bloody fighting between Confederate and Union troops at Stones River in Middle Tennessee ended with nearly 25,000 casualties but no clear victor. The staggering number of killed or wounded equaled the losses suffered in the well-known Battle of Shiloh. Using previously neglected sources, Larry J. Daniel rescues this important campaign from obscurity. The Battle of Stones River, fought between December 31, 1862, and January 2, 1863, was a tactical draw but proved to be a strategic northern victory. According to Daniel, Union defeats in late 1862--both at Chickasaw Bayou in Mississippi and at Fredericksburg, Virginia--transformed the clash in Tennessee into a much-needed morale booster for the North.
Daniel's study of the battle's two antagonists, William S. Rosecrans for the Union Army of the Cumberland and Braxton Bragg for the Confederate Army of Tennessee, presents contrasts in leadership and a series of missteps. Union soldiers liked Rosecrans's personable nature, whereas Bragg acquired a reputation as antisocial and suspicious. Rosecrans had won his previous battle at Corinth, and Bragg had failed at the recent Kentucky Campaign. But despite Rosecrans's apparent advantage, both commanders made serious mistakes. With only a few hundred yards separating the lines, Rosecrans allowed Confederates to surprise and route his right ring. Eventually, Union pressure forced Bragg to launch a division-size attack, a disastrous move. Neither side could claim victory on the battlefield. In the aftermath of the bloody conflict, Union commanders and northern newspapers portrayed the stalemate as a victory, bolstering confidence in the Lincoln administration and dimming the prospects for the peace wing of the northern Democratic Party. In the South, the deadlock led to continued bickering in the Confederate western high command and scorn for Braxton Bragg.

Описание: The contributions of this Special Issue are in keeping with these concerns regarding more adequate methods to describe and analyze at least three levels of comprehension of socio-cognitive phenomena: the individual`s cognitive functioning; the socio-cognitive functioning of the dyad ; and the way the first two elements are mediated by discursive activities.

Описание: Perhaps no person exerted more influence on postwar white Southern memory than former Confederate chaplain and Baptist minister J. William Jones. Christopher C. Moore's Apostle of the Lost Cause is the first full-length work to examine the complex contributions to Lost Cause ideology of this well-known but surprisingly understudied figure. Commissioned by Robert E. Lee himself to preserve an accurate account of the Confederacy, Jones responded by welding hagiography and denominationalism to create, in effect, a sacred history of the Southern cause. In a series of popular books and in his work as secretary of the Southern Historical Society Papers, Jones's mission became the canonization of Confederate saints, most notably Lee, Stonewall Jackson, and Jefferson Davis, for a postwar generation and the contrivance of a full-blown myth of Southern virtue-in-defeat that deeply affected historiography for decades to come. While personally committed to Baptist identity, Jones supplied his readers with embodiments of Southern morality who transcended denominational boundaries and enabled white Southerners to locate their champions (and themselves) in a quasi-biblical narrative that ensured ultimate vindication for the Southern cause. In a time when Confederate monuments and the enduring effects of white supremacy are in the daily headlines, an examination of this key figure in the creation of the Lost Cause legacy could not be more relevant.

Описание: In this first full-length study of Claiborne Fox Jackson, Christopher Phillips offers much more than a traditional biography. His analysis of Jackson`s rise to power through the tangle that was Missouri`s antebellum politics and of Jackson`s actions in pursuit of his state`s secession complete the deeper and broader story of regional identity.

Yankees claimed they won the Battle of Franklin; the Confederates believed they were the victors. Each side displayed courage (and in some cases cowardice) amid appalling slaughter, while employing outstanding tactical maneuvers and committing elementary strategical errors. These facts raise important questions.
Why, for example, did Union Gen. Wagner disobey orders at a crucial point in the battle, and why did Confederate Gen. Hood place his most brilliant fighter, Nathan Bedford Forrest, on the far right where he knew he would have almost no impact? Why did Union Gen. Schofield callously leave his dead and wounded on the battlefield the following day, and why, strangely, did Gen. Hood attempt to renew the battle on the morning of December 1? Why did Federal soldiers wantonly shoot down and kill Confederate Gen. John Adams when they could have easily captured him instead, and why at Franklin was the casualty rate for Confederate officers and infantrymen the highest of any known modern battle? These and a thousand other questions have long perplexed those with a sincere interest in both this particular battle and American Civil War history.
What then is the full and true story of the sanguinary conflict that took place in Middle Tennessee on November 30, 1864, the day after the mysterious Battle of Spring Hill and two weeks before the one-sided Battle of Nashville? What really happened during this violent engagement on the Plain of Franklin, rightly called by soldiers the "Valley of Death," where the earth was so "red with blood" that it poured over the fields in "rivulets," where in some places the bodies lay three layers deep, and where one could walk across the entire battlefield upon corpses without ever touching the ground?
Award-winning author and historian Colonel Lochlainn Seabrook addresses these questions in his captivating book The Battle of Franklin: Recollections of Confederate and Union Soldiers, a chronicle of nearly 30 eyewitness accounts by military men who were on the battlefield that brisk Autumn day. Col. Seabrook also furnishes narratives by civilians, clergy, women, and even children who lived through the conflict, providing additional context to a battle which, like Nashville, neither side had intended to fight.
The author-editor includes nearly 200 rare illustrations and photos to accompany the footnoted text, along with an introduction, battle statistics, 19th-Century maps, appendices, and a bibliography. The Battle of Franklin is part of Col. Seabrook's trilogy, "Hood's Tennessee Campaign" series, which includes his companion books The Battle of Spring Hill and The Battle of Nashville. All are available in paperback and hardcover. (Note: Sea Raven Press books are never out of stock.)
