Graham Davis - Land!, Irish Pioneers in Mexican an d Revolutionary Texas (2002).jpg

The ethnic history of early Texas usually features Hispanics, Anglos, Germans, and Indians. Graham Davis demonstrates the importance of Irish immigrants in the Coastal Bend region of Texas, where they settled in the colonies of San Patricio and Refugio in the years 1829–1834. These colonies embodied the Mexican government policy of populating its sparsely settled northeastern frontier to create a buffer zone against possible U.S. aggression and to encourage economic development. Of forty-one empresario agreements over the period 1823–1835 to recruit principally Mexican and European families to settle on the frontier, few even partially succeeded; the few included two Irish partnerships, James Power and James Hewetson (Refugio) and John Mc-Mullen and James McGloin (San Patricio).

Mexican officials preferred Catholics, so the Irish empresarios sought recruits from Mexico and Ireland with the lure of cheap land. All four empresarios had sojourned in the United States during their youth and then moved on to Mexico as merchants and land speculators, and their colonies proved at least partially successful because they “Mexican-ized, speaking Spanish, establishing contacts in the Mexican government, and marrying into Mexican families” (p. 105). Their Irish recruits were mostly self-financing, small-to-middling farmers from affluent parts of Ireland (though some had lived for a time in the United States). To meet their quotas (cholera and other travails kept many Irish recruits from reaching the colonies), the empresarios accepted colonists from the United States and several European nations. Thus, “Irish” colonies became diverse societies.

The Texas revolution severed the colonists' ties to Mexico; Mexican troops destroyed their homes and drove them into support for Texas independence. Colonists contributed not only soldiers but also valuable intelligence and supplies to the war effort. Close ties with their Mexican neighbors proved vital when one neighbor interceded to save several colonists from the Goliad massacre. The “blood sacrifice” of war bound the colonists to Texas, and survivors of military service received land bounties, while merchants with military contracts prospered, too.

Davis's analysis of pioneer Texas life suggests that Irish immigrants retained some of their cultural baggage (fidelity to Catholicism and Ireland; folkways of music, dance, and storytelling; support for education and charity) while acquiring ranching skills and useful Spanish vocabulary from Tejanos. Their most important acquisition in America was plentiful land—a theme Davis sees as central to the decision to immigrate, to their role in the Texas revolution, and to their lives in postrev-olutionary Texas (conspicuously demonstrated by Thomas O'Connor, who accumulated 500,000 acres and 100,000 head of cattle). Davis also underscores the importance of pioneer women in maintaining civilized living and notes the importance of their memoirs in understanding the history of the period.

Louis Fairchild - The Lonesome Plains, Death and R evival on an American Frontier (2002).jpg

Using interviews, diaries and published sources, Mr. Fairchild, a psychology professor at Texas A & M University, Canyon, Texas, explores a rarely discussed subject - the suffocating and omnipresent loneliness of the Panhandle frontier.

Diet, infant mortality, burial procedures and etiquette, mourning, and the importance of friendship and neighborliness are all covered by these sobering and sometimes heartrending personal accounts. Also discussed is the way men dealt with these problems and benefits, which predictably, was quite different from women.

Instead of romanticizing the pioneers - the facts revealed in their writings make them more human and
allow for an easy connection with the reader. The details of everyday pioneer life are valuable and the passages gleaned from letters and diaries are well chosen.

Thankfully, the second part of the book is a little lighter than the first and covers the camp or brush arbor meetings. Here the reader is relieved to find that there was some fun to be had when families would bring their children, dogs and most of their furniture to these semi-annual events. Getting a year or six months worth of friendship and/ or religion crowded into a few short days is something few societies experience.

It's a readable book on a serious subject without a droning academic tone.

Louis Fairchild is a professor of psychology at West Texas A&M University. A graduate of Baylor University and Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary, he holds a Ph.D. from the University of Houston.

Maxine Eichner - The Supportive State, Families, G overnment, and America's Political Ideals (2010).jpg

Broad agreement exists among politicians and policymakers that the family is a critical institution of American life. Yet the role that the state should play with respect to family ties among citizens remains deeply contested. This controversy over the state's role undergirds a broad range of public policy debates: Does the state have a responsibility to help resolve conflicts between work and family? Should same-sex marriage be permitted? Should parents who receive welfare benefits be required to work? Yet while these individual policy issues are endlessly debated, the underlying theoretical question of the stance that the state should take with families remains largely unexplored.

Jean-Paul Brodeur - The Policing Web (2010).jpg

Nearly all research devoted to policing focuses on public uniformed police and their legal use of force. An overwhelming amount of this work draws on evidence from Anglo-American police forces. These twin emphases have led to a limited view. Agencies such as criminal investigation units, intelligence services, private security companies, and military policing organizations have almost entirely escaped scholarly attention.

Tom Price & Susan Crites Price - Frommer's Irrever ent Guide to Washington, D.C. (2004).jpg

Looking for a travel guide that goes where other guides fear to tread? One that rides roughshod over ad-copy puffery to smartly deliver the real scoop on a destination's sites and attractions? One that dares to be honest, hip, and fun? Look no more. Frommer's Irreverent Travel Guides are wickedly irreverent, unabashedly honest, and downright hilarious, and provide an insider's perspective on which attractions are overrated tourist traps and which are the secret gems that locals love. You'll get the lowdown on restaurants, lodging, and shopping, and even find out what the locals think of you. "Like being taken around by a savvy local," said the New York Times. "Hipper and savvier than other guides," concurred Diversion magazine. Never shy about confronting the issues, the Irreverents are guides to real travel in the real world.

Anne Zeman, Kate Kelly - Everything You Need To Kn ow About American History Homework (1997).jpg

Grade 4-6-As their titles indicate, these books are written specifically to help children complete their homework assignments. Therefore, they are best used as circulating materials and not as reference books. None of the material is presented in-depth and the books aren't meant to be used for reports, but in terms of answering specific questions, introducing concepts, or providing simple explanations they are competently done. All three volumes have thorough tables of contents that are easy to use; large print size and lots of white space; numerous charts, maps, and graphs; and color-coded sound bites of information. Each page has a handy sidebar that indicates what can be found and thus provides a shortcut for someone leafing through in search of an answer. The indexes are also complete. American History is enriched with colorful graphics and archival photos. Answers to the most commonly asked homework questions abound, and they are easily accessible and clearly stated.

Eckhard Fiedler, Mil Norman-Risch, Reimer Jansen - America in close-up (1990).jpg

"America in Close-Up" is a study of contemporary America which looks at a variety of aspects of life in the United States. Each unit of the book has three parts; Part A offers a clear and detailed account of some aspect of American society and in Part B the subject is explored further through interviews, articles and photographs taken from contemporary newspapers and journals such as "Time" and "Newsweek", which give an insight into the way Americans see themselves and show the contrasting views held by people in the different strata of society. The factual information in Part A provides the historical and cultural context for students to understand the issues discussed in the texts in Part B which range from immigration and race relations to the death penalty. Part C contains exercises and activities designed to enhance understanding of the texts in Part B and to help students to decide what they think about the issues involved. The book is intended to be used by advanced students of English in the upper grades of secondary schools and on the more basic courses in colleges and universities. By combining the two functions of reader and reference book it aims to offer students the most complete possible introduction to American life and institutions. The book could be used as a general companion to the study of fictional (and non-fictional) texts - for example, to provide the socio-economic background to a poem, drama, short story or complete novel or as a basic coursebook of an American Studies program. Used selectively, this book offers teachers and students information and reading material on a given aspect of America as and when this is appropriate.

Jennifer A. Lemak - Southern Life, Northern City (2008).jpg

Southern Life, Northern City is the inspirational story of an African American community in Albany that has fought doggedly for generations to preserve its legacy and way of life. In the 1920s and 1930s rural African American families living in Shubuta, Mississippi, began relocating to Albany, New York. These former sharecroppers initially settled in Albany's South End, but quickly became unhappy with the vice and overcrowding of city life.

Marshall Boswell, Carl Rollyson - Encyclopedia of American Literature, 1607–to the present (2002).jpg

This wide-ranging encyclopedia of American literature consists of three chronological volumes, each covering an era in American history.
Volume 1, which treats the Colonial and Revolutionary era, was written by Berkin (history, Baruch; Brilliant Solution: Inventing the American Constitution), while
Volumes 2 (The Age of Romanticism and Realism) and 3 (The Modern and Postmodern Period) were written by Paddock and Rollyson, respectively, who coauthored Herman Melville A to Z and hold Ph.D.s in English. All three volumes feature an introductory essay followed by alphabetically arranged entries and a chronology. The entries, which range from literary figures, genres, and literary characters to specific works, topical entries such as "Lost Generation," and musicals, provide not just facts but interpretation of the topic's importance as well. They are usually brief often only one to two paragraphs, although a few run over one page and conclude with a list of sources. The greatest downfall of this set is the lack of consistency. For example, only Volume 1 includes citations to works by the person under discussion, as well as a few secondary sources. Also, the cross references refer only to articles within a volume, not across the set. Thus, volumes 2 and 3 both include articles on detective fiction, but neither indicates that the other volume covers the same topic in a different time period. Worst of all, although each volume has a cumulative "List of Entries," there is no cumulative index. Authors are included here who do not appear in Continuum's recent Encyclopedia of American Literature, such as John Kennedy Toole and Patricia Highsmith. However, such authors do appear in the wonderful Benet's Reader's Encyclopedia, which remains more authoritative and larger in scope. Given these drawbacks as well as the steep price, this title is not recommended unless your library is in need of a chronological approach to American literature or a more current reference.

Robert M. Stern - Globalization and International Trade Policies (2009).jpg

This book brings together a collection of papers that Robert M Stern and his co-authors have written in recent years. The collection addresses a variety of issues pertinent to the global trading system. One group of papers deals with globalization in terms of what the public needs to know about this phenomenon and the role of the World Trade Organization (WTO), whether some countries may be hurt by globalization, how global market integration relates to national sovereignty, and how and whether considerations of fairness are and should be dealt with in the global trading system and WTO negotiations. A second group of papers consists of analytical and computational modeling studies of multilateral, regional, and bilateral trading arrangements and negotiations from a global and national perspective for the United States and other major trading countries. The remaining papers include an empirical analysis of barriers to international services transactions and the consequences of liberalization, and issues of international trade and labor standards.

Thomas J. Tighe - Who's in Charge of America's Res earch Universities (2003).jpg

This book explores the American research university, and, in a larger sense, addresses knowledge creation in our society, since research universities are the primary means for the production and dissemination of basic knowledge in the public interest. Universities not only play a major role in technological, economic, and cultural development, but also prepare much of the country's leadership, particularly in the sciences, engineering, medicine, and other professions.
