In Making Settler Cinemas, Peter Limbrick argues that the United States, Australia, and New Zealand share histories of colonial encounters that have shaped their cinemas in distinctive ways. Going beyond readings of narrative and representation, this book studies the production, distribution, reception, and reexhibition of cinema across three settler societies under the sway of two empires. Investigating films both canonical and overlooked, Making Settler Cinemas not only shows how cinema has mattered to settler societies but affirms that practices of film history can themselves be instrumental in encountering and reshaping colonial pasts.

Synopsis William Howe began his military career at a time when England and France were fighting each other for control of land in the New World. After his service to England in the Seven Years' War, William was ordered by King George III to command British soldiers in America. The war for American independence from British rule was about to begin. Read about William's costly victory at the Battle of Bunker Hill and his strategy for defeating the patriots in New York. At the same time, discover how this great British general tried to end the war peacefully and how his opinions about the war angered the British Parliament. Learn about William's many successes and about the one failure that caused a major defeat for the British. Janet Crane Barley - Children's Literature Here is the story of the Revolutionary War told through the life of William Howe, the general who commanded the British forces during the American War of Independence. When Howe served in Canada in the French and Indian War that preceded the American Revolution, he led many men who were from the colony of Massachusetts. Because of that association, he developed a positive feeling for Americans and the 13 colonies and publicly criticized King George's government's treatment of the colonies. Despite Howe's attitude, King George summoned him to the palace, then commanded Howe to lead a large number of British soldiers in America. Howe didn't want to accept, but could not in good conscience refuse a direct order from the king. Even though he had been sympathetic to the American cause, he became a formidable adversary in a war whose outcome was not at all assured. He was a shrewd general who tested the mettle of American troops who were often outnumbered and who fought under extremely difficult conditions. Boxed text adds interesting, complementary anecdotes, such as George Washington returning General Howe's lost dog and the heroism of Molly Pitcher. The illustrations include several maps. A glossary explains words that are boldfaced in the text. Included are a chronology for Howe's life, a Revolutionary War time-line, suggestions for further reading and an index. For this book in the "Revolutionary War Leaders" series, Arthur M. Schlesinger, Jr., a leading American historian, was senior consulting editor.

Grade 4-6-In these workmanlike biographies, the authors do a competent, if not inspiring job of presenting complex ideas and historical material for an audience with little background knowledge of the topics. The history and achievements of Wayne will be more familiar to children, but there are still many complicated battles and intricacies of power politics among the military leaders. In the case of Kosciuszko, the author must explain the economic, social, and political structure of 18th-century Poland; provide background on the Enlightenment; and describe Kosciuszko's accomplishments as a military engineer, along with his military strategy during the Revolutionary War. The many reproductions and illustrations, in color and black and white, and the few, unclear maps do little to elucidate the texts. The pictures of important contemporaries such as Lord Howe or General Burgoyne will be meaningless to most readers, and there are no diagrams of Wayne's battles or Kosciuszko's fortifications. Although these books are not likely to be used for recreational reading, they might be useful as additional sources for reports.

Arthur Laffer—the father of supply-side economics and a member of President Reagan's Economic Policy Advisory Board—joins economist Stephen Moore of The Wall Street Journal editorial board and investment advisor Peter J. Tanous to send Americans an urgent message: We risk losing the exceptional standard of living that has made us the envy of the rest of the world if the pro-growth policies of the last twenty-five years are reversed by a new president. Since the early 1980s, the United States has experienced a wave of prosperity almost unprecedented in history in terms of wealth creation, new jobs, and improved living standards for all. Under the leadership of Presidents Ronald Reagan and Bill Clinton, Americans changed the incentive structure on taxes, inflation, and regulation, and as a result the economy roared back to life after the anti-growth, high-inflation 1970s. Now the rest of the world is following the American economic growth model of lower tax rates, more economic freedom, and sound money. Paradoxically, one country is moving away from these growth policies and putting its prosperity at risk—America. On the eve of a critical presidential election, Laffer, Moore, and Tanous provide the factual information every American needs in order to understand exactly how we achieved the prosperity many people have come to take for granted, and explain how the policies of Democrats Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, and Nancy Pelosi can cause America to lose its status as the world's growth and job creation machine. The End of Prosperity is essential reading for all Americans who value our nation's free enterprise system and high standard of living, and want to know how to protect their own investments in the coming storm.
