'Mersey Built' chronicles the little-known commercial battle that raged between North and South during the American Civil War. The South relied on Europe for its military supplies, which the North tried to stop with a naval blockade of all Southern ports. The South retaliated by destroying Northern merchant ships on the high seas, using war ships, secretly procured from British shipyards and smuggled out of Britain by sympathetic British captains using British crews. The Charleston-based business empire headed by George Trenholm provided a conduit for Confederate finance with its Liverpool branch acting as bankers for the Confederacy's procurement agents. Merseyside, with its extensive docks and numerous shipyards quickly became the epicenter of Confederate operations in Europe. Several British businessmen bought ships specifically to run supplies through the Union blockade, leaving relationships between the United States and Britain strained, close to breaking point.
The book relates the history of Trenholm's commercial empire, its pre-war expansion into Liverpool and the pivotal role it played in supporting the Confederate war effort. The involvement of other Liverpool-based entrepreneurs and their successes and failures in blockade-running is described. Background histories of the Merseyside ship builders who constructed warships and blockade runners for the Confederacy are included as well as several mini-biographies of the Liverpool-based captains who smuggled out warships and braved the Union blockade. Details of each ship built on Merseyside for involvement in the Civil War are listed. The role of the United States consular service and its extensive, Liverpool-based, spy ring is described, as are the efforts of the United States ambassador in London to influence British government policy on neutrality.
The author, a direct descendant of a Liverpool ship builder, and a blockade-running captain, brings new insights and previously unpublished facts to light in this fascinating chapter of history.

Описание: The past does not have to determine your present-if you choose to heal it. As human beings, we're born with a complex mental/emotional system. Yet we're not necessarily taught how to use that system to create the lives we desire. As a result, many of us feel stuck in the pain of the past and the uncertainty of how to move forward. Not knowing how to process our negative emotions, they fester, poisoning our current relationships and experiences. Our emotions create color and texture. What kind of life would it be if we didn't experience love, joy, awe and excitement? Even our negative feelings are important to guide us, help us survive, even give us the added push we need to stretch beyond ourselves. Yet, when we don't know how to handle what's going on in our lives, our emotions can sabotage our efforts, destroy our relationships and drive us to make poor choices. "I've experienced first hand what it's like to be plagued by past wounds. My personal journey to healing has not always been easy.

"A Jewish cemetery is, in fact, a living memorial and an everlasting sign of love and respect." - author Rabbi Greenstein
In Judaism, a cemetery is as much for the living as it is for the dead. The Temple Israel Museum commissioned a unique photographic exhibit of the Temple Israel Cemetery, located some five miles south of downtown Memphis.
Through the keen artistic eye of photographer Murray Riss, this unforgettable body of work, simply titled Beloved allows everyone to experience and appreciate the solemnity and beauty of this sacred ground.
The history of Temple Israel's cemetery can be traced to the death of one man, Samuel S. Andrews, who died in Memphis on November 20, 1846, just a quarter-century after the founding of Memphis and 15 years before the Civil War. It was the first Jewish cemetery established in Tennessee. Murray Riss' photographs are accompanied by context and commentary by author Rabbi Micah Greenstein and Susan Adler Thorp. Through the photographs and text, one can feel a renewed sense of the intimate connection between the history of Temple Israel and Memphis, and a recognition of the reality that we all exist in the present in seamless harmony with the past.
