Подзаголовок: Sir alan burns`s epic defense of the british empire
Рейтинг:
Поставляется из: Англии
Описание: The British Empire, one of the most powerful forces in history, was also one of the most humane. Yet at its twilight, few were willing to defy the anti-colonial reaction that condemned millions to despotism under the regimes that replaced it. Sir Alan Burns was among them.

In this lively and provocative work of history, Bruce Gilley vindicates Sir Alans view that decolonization was poorly managed and too swiftly executed, a view based not on imperialist nostalgia but on a sober assessment of the ravages of the twentieth century.

Gilley demonstrates that Burns understood the benefits of colonial rule and correctly foretold the chaos that accompanied its rapid dissolution.

Relying on previously unavailable documentation from Burnss family, The Last Imperialist dethrones the revisionist historians and shatters their unbalanced accusations against European colonialism. This is history writing at its most courageous.

Bruce Gilley has had to endure the most vituperative attacks for arguing that the European empires conferred benefits as well as imposed costs. . . Now, with this absorbing biography . . . Bruce Gilley has written a compelling as well as courageous work. --Niall Ferguson, Milbank Family Senior Fellow at the Hoover Institution, Stanford University


Queering the Countryside: New Frontiers in Rural Queer Studies

Описание: Choice Outstanding Academic Title of 2016

Rural queer experience is often hidden or ignored, and presumed to be alienating, lacking, and incomplete without connections to a gay culture that exists in an urban elsewhere. Queering the Countryside offers the first comprehensive look at queer desires found in rural America from a genuinely multi-disciplinary perspective. This collection of original essays confronts the assumption that queer desires depend upon urban life for meaning. By considering rural queer life, the contributors challenge readers to explore queer experiences in ways that give greater context and texture to modern practices of identity formation. The book's focus on understudied rural spaces throws into relief the overemphasis of urban locations and structures in the current political and theoretical work on queer sexualities and genders. Queering the Countryside highlights the need to rethink notions of "the closet" and "coming out" and the characterizations of non-urban sexualities and genders as "isolated" and in need of "outreach." Contributors focus on a range of topics--some obvious, some delightfully unexpected--from the legacy of Matthew Shepard, to how heterosexuality is reproduced at the 4-H Club, to a look at sexual encounters at a truck stop, to a queer reading of TheWizard of Oz. A journey into an unexplored slice of life in rural America, Queering the Countryside offers a unique perspective on queer experience in the modern United States and Canada.

Описание: Men do not generally achieve lifetimes of success alone. Standing with them, sometimes in the shadows, are the women - the mothers, wives, daughters, and companions - who support and help shape the lives of their partners. The Gillette men were not different. This book puts the Gillette women, and their ancestors, in the spotlight. Most of them probably led traditional female lives. They birthed and raised the next generation; many outlived their children. They took care of their homes homes that often moved. Some of these women had specific instances of non-traditional activity which were captured in records that survive today. Each was an individual to be remembered and celebrated. This book is a tribute to them.

Описание:

While salvation is wholly a work of the Lord, requiring only faith and not our personal efforts, such is not true of sanctification, or spiritual growth. Rather, both God and the believer play vital, sometimes overlapping roles, in our progress toward maturity. Maturity is the result of human response to the enablement of God. It is initiated by God and requires a radical dependence upon the grace and power of the Spirit as we work out our salvation. This manual is designed to aid the children of God in the process of working out their salvation through the power and energy that God supplies. By the Lord's grace, may it accomplish this purpose in your life.

Описание: The rise of China is changing the dynamics of the international system. This work analyzes how the group of states referred to as "middle powers" are responding to China's growing economic, diplomatic, and military power. Middle powers are those states with capabilities immediately below those of great powers, but still far above most other states. Middle powers are significant as trading partners and allies or adversaries in matters of regional security, nuclear proliferation, and global governance issues such as human rights and climate change. This book provides cases of middle-power relations with China. The countries covered are South Korea, Malaysia, Thailand, Indonesia, Australia, South Africa, Turkey, and Brazil. It addresses how these states are responding to a rising China; what impact Chinese power is having on them; and whether they are being drawn to China or repelled by its new power and assertiveness. The work also explores how much (or little) China values middle powers and whether or not middle powers can shape China's behavior.

She is so hurt that she gets in her car and drives, having no idea where she is or where she's going. Night approaches, and she pulls off the interstate to find a restaurant for a bite to eat and a hotel for the night. Donna, the owner of the restaurant, takes a liking to Rachel and offers her a job and a place to stay when she finds out Rachel is a pastry chef. Rachel accepts the offer and the plot begins as the new pastry chef impresses the entire town of Taylorsville with her wonderful pastries and outgoing personality. The local Pastor spots her running one morning and becomes intrigued by the new lady in his little town. It is not long till he sees Rachel working in the restaurant and finds a way to meet her.

There is humor with the little puppy he finds in the snow outside her back door and it's the puppy the binds these two, together. There are interesting twists and turns, complete with an identical twin showing up that no one in Taylorsville knew about. You will fall in love with the six main characters and enjoy the love story that develops between the three couples.

Описание: I started this cookbook while writing The Housekeeper. I hope that by sharing these recipes with you, more people can enjoy the pastries that I've made. None of the recipes are hard to make, and they are all very tasty and fun to make. Handing down a recipe is sharing a little part of you that will live on. A recipe is the groundwork for an idea, and you can change it to make it your own. I have listed the recipes as they were mentioned in my book The Housekeeper. To all of you, I hope you have fun as you make and try many of the wonderful items contained in this cookbook. Love is what binds people together, and when a person bakes, they love the people that will enjoy what they make. I'm sharing my pastries with you so you can share your love. Ren e

Описание: Dreams do come true, no matter how unlikely they seem. Mike has been having dreams every night about a beautiful woman. She comes to him in his sleep, telling him, "Please, find me." In an effort to unravel the mystery of his dream woman's identity, Mike hires an artist to paint the image in his head-but she's just a figment of his imagination, right? Miraculously, Mike's housekeeper Katie meets a woman identical to the one in the painting. Her name is Kara, but there is a big problem: she's married to Don. In order to have a chance with Kara, Mike intimidates Don with financial secrets that could ruin him. Mike convinces Don to let him spend twenty-eight days with Kara in exchange for saving Don's reputation. The plan is set. Saying he needs some space, Don leaves Kara at the hotel with no money, phone, or credit card. To help Mike, Katie invites Kara to stay with her for a while and assist with her wedding plans. There, Kara meets Mike and so begins a game of romance and deception as secrets emerge and affections grow. Mike believes he's found his soul mate, but Kara must decide between two men she has come to love.
