Bernard Jaffe - Men of Science in America, The Rol e of Science in the Growth of Our Country (1944).jpg

Bernard Jaffe, a member of the physical sciences departments of New York City high schools for many years and a writer on the history of science, died of a heart attack Wednesday at Martha's Vineyard Hospital, Vineyard Haven, Mass. He was 90 years old and lived in Oak Bluffs, Mass.

Mr. Jaffe, the author of 11 books, was chairman of the physical science department of James Madison High School in Brooklyn for many years. His textbook, ''Chemistry Creates a New World,'' published in 1957, was widely used in American schools. He retired in 1958.

He was born in Manhattan and was a graduate of City College in 1916. He later earned a master's degree in chemistry from Columbia University.

Mr. Jaffe is survived by his wife, the former Celia Lesser; two brothers, Dr. Samuel Jaffe and Dr. Philip Jaffe, both of Manhattan; a son, Dr. Lionel Jaffe of Woods Hole, Mass.; and three grandchildren.

Buck T. Foster - Sherman's Mississippi Campaign (2 006).jpg

The rehearsal for the March to the Sea.
With the fall of Vicksburg to Union forces in mid-1863, the Federals began work to extend and consolidate their hold on the lower Mississippi Valley. As a part of this plan, Major General William Tecumseh Sherman set out from Vicksburg on February 3, 1864, with an army of some 25,000 infantry and a battalion of cavalry. They expected to be joined by another Union force moving south from Memphis and supported themselves off the land as they traveled due east across Mississippi.
Sherman entered Meridian on February 14 and thoroughly destroyed its railroad facilities, munitions plants, and cotton stores, before returning to Vicksburg. Though not a particularly effective campaign in terms of enemy soldiers captured or killed, it offers a rich opportunity to observe how this large-scale raid presaged Sherman’s Atlanta and Carolina campaigns, revealing the transformation of Sherman’s strategic thinking.
Buck T. Foster is an independent scholar living in southern Mississippi.

Carla Gardina Pestana - The English Atlantic in an Age of Revolution, 1640-1661 (2007).jpg

Between 1640 and 1660, England, Scotland, and Ireland faced civil war, invasion, religious radicalism, parliamentary rule, and the restoration of the monarchy. Carla Gardina Pestana offers a sweeping history that systematically connects these cataclysmic events and the development of the infant plantations from Newfoundland to Surinam.
By 1660, the English Atlantic emerged as religiously polarized, economically interconnected, socially exploitative, and ideologically anxious about its liberties. War increased both the proportion of unfree laborers and ethnic diversity in the settlements. Neglected by London, the colonies quickly developed trade networks, especially from seafaring New England, and entered the slave trade. Barbadian planters in particular moved decisively toward slavery as their premier labor system, leading the way toward its adoption elsewhere. When by the 1650s the governing authorities tried to impose their vision of an integrated empire, the colonists claimed the rights of "freeborn English men," making a bid for liberties that had enormous implications for the rise in both involuntary servitude and slavery. Changes at home politicized religion in the Atlantic world and introduced witchcraft prosecutions.
Pestana presents a compelling case for rethinking our assumptions about empire and colonialism and offers an invaluable look at the creation of the English Atlantic world.

David Kaiser - The Road to Dallas, The Assassinati on of John F. Kennedy (2006).jpg

Neither a random event nor the act of a lone madman—the assassination of President John F. Kennedy was an appalling and grisly conspiracy. This is the unvarnished story.
With deft investigative skill, David Kaiser shows that the events of November 22, 1963, cannot be understood without fully grasping the two larger stories of which they were a part: the U.S. government’s campaign against organized crime, which began in the late 1950s and accelerated dramatically under Robert Kennedy; and the furtive quest of two administrations—along with a cadre of private interest groups—to eliminate Fidel Castro.
The seeds of conspiracy go back to the Eisenhower administration, which recruited top mobsters in a series of plots to assassinate the Cuban leader. The CIA created a secretive environment in which illicit networks were allowed to expand in dangerous directions. The agency’s links with the Mafia continued in the Kennedy administration, although the President and his closest advisors—engaged in their own efforts to overthrow Castro—thought this skullduggery had ended. Meanwhile, Cuban exiles, right-wing businessmen, and hard-line anti-Communists established ties with virtually anyone deemed capable of taking out the Cuban premier. Inevitably those ties included the mob.
The conspiracy to kill JFK took shape in response to Robert Kennedy’s relentless attacks on organized crime—legal vendettas that often went well beyond the normal practices of law enforcement. Pushed to the wall, mob leaders merely had to look to the networks already in place for a solution. They found it in Lee Harvey Oswald—the ideal character to enact their desperate revenge against the Kennedys.
Comprehensive, detailed, and informed by original sources, The Road to Dallas adds surprising new material to every aspect of the case. It brings to light the complete, frequently shocking, story of the JFK assassination and its aftermath.

Geri Spieler - Taking Aim at the President, The Re markable Story of the Woman Who Shot at Gerald For d (2008).jpg

01 - USA - Geri Spieler - Taking Aim at the President, The Remarka...rkable Story of the Woman Who Shot at Gerald Ford 2008.jpg

In TAKING AIM AT THE PRESIDENT: The Remarkable Story of the Woman Who Shot at Gerald Ford (Palgrave Macmillan/ PUB DATE: Jan 12th, 2009/ Hardcover/ 0-230-61023-4), author and investigative journalist, Geri Spieler, chronicles the life and dives into the mind of would-be assassin, Sara Jane Moore, the only woman in American history to fire a bullet at a U.S. President, and the only one arrested for committing this level of crime to be released from prison.
After 30 years of contact while Moore was behind bars, Spieler paints a vivid personality assessment of this suburban housewife who was far from the profile of a skilled assassin, yet was still able to shoot at Ford on September 22, 1975.

Grant Segall - John D. Rockefeller, Anointed with Oil (2001).jpg

Gr. 9-12. This fascinating biography in the Oxford Portraits series offers a broad, well-researched and nicely presented view of the man, his business and personal interests, and his philanthropic legacy. Starting with his early years, marked by poverty and his tough, itinerant father and willful mother, the book follows Rockefeller through each development in his empire until his death in 1927, providing an oblique history of the oil industry in America along the way. Always setting Rockefeller's personal story within a larger historical context, the text, filled with anecdotes and first-person quotes, is very readable and includes intimate details about Rockefeller's contradictory attitudes towards his health, his homes, and his personal and familial relationships. A first-rate biography for reports or for students curious about the man or the era. A nice selection of photos illustrate, and a family tree, a chronology, and further resources are appended.

Hu Yi-Chong, Patrick Weller - Inside the World Ban k, Exploding the Myth of the Monolithic Bank (2009 ).jpg

This book challenges the common view that the World Bank can be seen as a single player in world politics. Its critics credit it with common views and an over-riding neo-liberal philosophy, which it imposes on unwilling countries. We argue that the Bank, far from being a unitary actor, is fundamentally plural, internally fragmented and dispersed, with cascading chains of delegation, authority and controls, and with considerable discretion delegated to the staff. There are management dilemmas that ensure internal variations of opinion and approach are an inevitable part of its activities. Bank staff are important players in shaping the operation of the Bank; they have scope for creativity in the selection of the development programs and projects the Bank undertakes in the client/partner countries. To understand the Bank it is necessary to appreciate how it works and what impact the staff can have.

James Miller - The United States and Italy, 1940-1 950, The Politics and Diplomacy of StabilizationIt aly (1986).jpg

Preface

On Monday, 4 April 1949, the foreign ministers of eleven
nations met in the ornate Departmental Auditorium on Constitution Avenue in
Washington, D.C., to sign the North Atlantic Treaty. President Harry Truman
and Secretary of State Dean Acheson made opening remarks that stressed the
defensive nature of the new pact. Each of the European foreign ministers then
rose to reply. Count Carlo Sforza, Italy's foreign minister, spoke midway
through the program. For Sforza personally and for Italy, this was a moment of
the greatest significance.

Sforza was the living embodiment of Italy's newly forged ties with the
United States. In July 1940, he arrived in the United States as a refugee from
fascism, seeking an American commitment that Italy would have a free post-
war choice of its government institutions and would retain its national sover-
eignty and boundaries. Two years later, in the same Departmental Auditorium,
Sforza's efforts bore concrete fruit when Acheson publicly committed the
United States to a significant role in Italy's postwar reconstruction. As the
leader of the Italian exile movement in the United States and later as a
spokesman for moderate antifascism in liberated Italy, Sforza was closely
identified with the introduction of American power into Italy. After the war, as
foreign minister, Sforza was a leading spokesman for Italian participation in
the Marshall Plan, European Union, and Atlantic Alliance. With the signing of
the treaty, Sforza had an American commitment to defend Italy against foreign
attack. Meanwhile, Marshall Plan aid flowed into his nation to shore up its
economy and defeat the threat of internal assaults on Italian democracy. Italy
and the United States were linked in a partnership that has lasted ever since.

John A. Ragosta - Wellspring of Liberty, How Virgi nia's Religious Dissenters Helped Win the American Revolution and Secured Religious Liberty (2010).jpg

01 - USA - John A. Ragosta - Wellspring of Liberty, How Virginias...American Revolution and Secured Religious Liberty 2010.jpg

Before the American Revolution, no colony more assiduously protected its established church or more severely persecuted religious dissenters than Virginia. Both its politics and religion were dominated by an Anglican establishment, and dissenters from the established Church of England were subject to numerous legal infirmities and serious persecution. By 1786, no state more fully protected religious freedom.
This profound transformation, as John A. Ragosta shows in this book, arose not from a new-found cultural tolerance. Rather, as the Revolution approached, Virginia's political establishment needed the support of the religious dissenters, primarily Presbyterians and Baptists, for the mobilization effort. Dissenters seized this opportunity to insist on freedom of religion in return for their mobilization. Their demands led to a complex and extended negotiation in which the religious establishment slowly and grudgingly offered just enough reforms to maintain the crucial support of the dissenters.
After the war, when dissenters' support was no longer needed, the establishment leaders sought to recapture control, but found they had seriously miscalculated: wartime negotiations had politicized the dissenters. As a result dissenters' demands for the separation of church and state triumphed over the establishment's efforts and Jefferson's Statute for Establishing Religious Freedom was adopted.
Historians and the Supreme Court have repeatedly noted that the foundation of the First Amendment's protection of religious liberty lies in Virginia's struggle, turning primarily to Jefferson and Madison to understand this. In Wellspring of Liberty, John A. Ragosta argues that Virginia's religious dissenters played a seminal, and previously underappreciated, role in the development of the First Amendment and in the meaning of religious freedom as we understand it today.

Michael S. Foley - Dear Dr. Spock, Letters about t he Vietnam War to America's Favorite Baby Doctor ( 2005).jpg

At the height of the Vietnam War, thousands of Americans wrote moving letters to Dr. Benjamin Spock, America's pediatrician and a high-profile opponent of the war. Personal and heartfelt, thoughtful and volatile, these missives from Middle America pre an intriguing glimpse into the conflicts that took place over the dinner table as people wrestled with this divisive war and with their consciences.
Pring one of the first clear views of the home front during the war, Dear Dr. Spock collects the best of these letters and offers a window into the minds of ordinary Americans. They wrote to Spock because he was familiar, trustworthy, and controversial. His book Baby and Child Care was on the shelves of most homes, second only to the Bible in the number of copies sold. Starting in the 1960s, his activism in the antinuclear and antiwar movements drew mixed reactions from Americans—some puzzled, some supportive, some angry, and some desperate.
Most of the letters come from what Richard Nixon called the "silent majority"white, middleclass, law-abiding citizens who the president thought supported the war to contain Communism. In fact, the letters reveal a complexity of reasoning and feeling that moves far beyond the opinion polls at the time. One mother of young children struggles to imagine how Vietnamese women could endure after their village was napalmed, while another chastises Spock for the "dark shadow" he had cast on the country and pledges to instill love of country in her sons.
What emerges is a portrait of articulate Americans struggling mightily to understand government policies in Vietnam and how those policies did or did not reflect their own sense of themselves and their country.

Paul Howard Carlson - Buffalo Soldier Tragedy of 1 877 (2003).jpg

The year 1877 was a drought year in West Texas. In the middle of that arid summer, a troop of some forty buffalo soldiers (African American cavalry led by white officers) struck out into the Llano Estacado from Double Lakes, south of modern Lubbock, pursuing a band of Kwahada Comanches who had been raiding homesteads and hunting parties. A group of twenty-two buffalo hunters accompanied the soldiers as guides and allies. Several days later three black soldiers rode into Fort Concho at modern San Angelo and reported that the men and officers of Troop A were missing and presumed dead from thirst. The "Staked Plains Horror," as the Galveston Daily News called it, quickly captured national attention. Although most of the soldiers eventually straggled back into camp, four had died, and others eventually faced court-martial for desertion. The buffalo hunters had ridden off on their own to find water, and the surviving soldiers had lived by drinking the blood of their dead horses and their own urine. A routine army scout had turned into disaster of the worst kind. Although the failed expedition was widely reported at the time, the sparse treatments since then have relied exclusively on the white officers' accounts. Paul H. Carlson has mined the courts-martial records for testimony of the enlisted men, memories of a white boy who rode with the Indians, and other sources to pre a nuanced view of the interaction of soldiers, hunters, settlers, and Indians on the Staked Plains before the final settling of the Comanches on their reservation in Indian Territory.

Robert Ellickson - Order without Law, How Neighbor s Settle Disputes (1994).jpg

In Order without Law Robert C. Ellickson shows that law is far less important than is generally thought. He demonstrates that people largely govern themselves by means of informal rules-social norms-that develop without the aid of a state or other central coordinator. Integrating the latest scholarship in law, economics, sociology, game theory, and anthropology, Ellickson investigates the uncharted world within which order is successfully achieved without law.
The springboard for Ellickson's theory of norms is his close investigation of a variety of disputes arising from the damage created by escaped cattle in Shasta County, California. In "The Problem of Social Cost" --the most frequently cited article on law--economist Ronald H. Cease depicts farmers and ranchers as bargaining in the shadow of the law while resolving cattle-trespass disputes. Ellickson's field study of this problem refutes many of the behavioral assumptions that underlie Coase's vision, and will add realism to future efforts to apply economic analysis to law.
Drawing examples from a wide variety of social contexts, including whaling grounds, photocopying centers, and landlord-tenant relations, Ellickson explores the interaction between informal and legal rules and the usual domains in which these competing systems are employed. Order without Law firmly grounds its analysis in real-world events, while building a broad theory of how people cooperate to mutual advantage.

Susan L. Carruthers - Cold War Captives, Imprisonm ent, Escape, and Brainwashing (2009).jpg

This provocative history of early cold war America recreates a time when World War III seemed imminent. Headlines were dominated by stories of Soviet slave laborers, brainwashed prisoners in Korea, and courageous escapees like Oksana Kasenkina who made a "leap for freedom" from the Soviet Consulate in New York. Full of fascinating and forgotten stories, Cold War Captives explores a central dimension of American culture and politics--the postwar preoccupation with captivity. "Menticide," the calculated destruction of individual autonomy, struck many Americans as a more immediate danger than nuclear annihilation. Drawing upon a rich array of declassified documents, movies, and reportage--from national security directives to films like The Manchurian Candidate--his book explores the ways in which east-west disputes over prisoners, repatriation, and defection shaped popular culture. Captivity became a way to understand everything from the anomie of suburban housewives to the "slave world" of drug addiction. Sixty years later, this era may seem distant. Yet, with interrogation techniques derived from America's communist enemies now being used in the "war on terror," the past remains powerfully present.
