California Gold Rush and the Coming of the Civil War
Kategoria: Pozostałe
In this revelatory study. award-winning historian Leonard L. Richards outlines the links between the Gold Rush and the Civil War. Richards explains how Southerners envisioned California as a new market for slaves in the gold fields. schemed to tie California to the South via railroad. and imagined splitting off the state’s southern half for a slave state. We see how the Gold Rush influenced other regional and national squabbles. and we meet renegade New York Democrat David Broderick. who became a force in San Francisco politics in 1849. and his archrival. William Gwin. a major Mississippi slaveholder. Richards recounts the political battles alongside the fiery California feuds. duels. and. perhaps. outright murders as the state came shockingly close to being divided in two.

Chemical Wedding by Christian Rosencreutz

Often described as an alchemical allegory. John Crowley instead decided this is „the first science fiction novel.” After all. „it’s fiction; it’s about the possibilities of a science; and it’s a novel.” No matter what else it might be. it’s definitely one of the great outlandish stories in Western literature.

Short History of Nearly Everything
Kategoria: Pozostałe
A Short History of Nearly Everything is Bill Bryson’s quest to find out everything that has happened from the Big Bang to the rise of civilization – how we got from there. being nothing at all. to here. being us. His challenge is to take subjects that normally bore the pants off most of us. and see if there isn’t some way to render them comprehensible to people who have never thought they could be interested in science. It’s not so much about what we know. as about how we know what we know. How do we know what is in the centre of the Earth. or what a black hole is. or where the continents were 600 million years ago? How did anyone ever figure these things out?On his travels through time and space. Bill Bryson takes us with him on the ultimate eye-opening journey. and reveals the world in a way most of us have never seen it before.
