Toward a More Perfect Union

Virtue and the Formation of American Republics

By: Ann Fairfax Withington

In October of 1774, Congress passed a moral code which banned the theater, cock-fights, and horse races. In abiding by this code, Americans built for themselves a character as a virtuous people which set them apart from the "corrupt" British, prepared them to declare independence, and gave them the confidence to establish republican governments. This book uses the specific moral code of Congress as a springboard into the issues generated by the constitutional crisis that precipitated the American Revolution. Withington argues that the moral program, grounded in popular culture, worked as a political strategy to involve people emotionally in the cause and to broaden the reach of resistance to include all classes and both genders. Withington's integration of political history with the materials of popular culture, including cocker manuals, mortuary paraphernalia, prints, caricatures, anagrams, bawdy comedies and sentimental tragedies, and last speeches of condemned criminals leads the reader into a deeper understanding of the formation and significance of the revolutionary ideology

California Cuisine and Just Food

By: Sally K. Fairfax,Louise Nelson Dyble,Greig Tor Guthey,Lauren Gwin,Monica Moore

An account of the shift in focus to access and fairness among San Francisco Bay Area alternative food activists and advocates. Can a celebrity chef find common ground with an urban community organizer? Can a maker of organic cheese and a farm worker share an agenda for improving America's food? In the San Francisco Bay area, unexpected alliances signal the widening concerns of diverse alternative food proponents. What began as niche preoccupations with parks, the environment, food aesthetics, and taste has become a broader and more integrated effort to achieve food democracy: agricultural sustainability, access for all to good food, fairness for workers and producers, and public health. This book maps that evolution in northern California. The authors show that progress toward food democracy in the Bay area has been significant: innovators have built on familiar yet quite radical understandings of regional cuisine to generate new, broadly shared expectations about food quality, and activists have targeted the problems that the conventional food system creates. But, they caution despite the Bay Area's favorable climate, progressive politics, and food culture many challenges remain.

Angel Strikes

By: Oliver Fairfax

Do You Dare Be Transported Into a Historical Adventure That Will Forever Change Your View of the Past?The Angel Strikes is the first in a series of sweeping, epic novels that make up The Brandt Family Chronicles. Spanning two centuries from the Napoleonic Wars to the Cold War and beyond, these riveting historical fiction novels portray the saga of the Paul Brandt family through the generations. But more than simply giving us a glimpse into rich family dynamics over time, these books challenge our very understanding of why history happened. Much like the highly acclaimed television series Downton Abbey, these novels show the grandeur of the times as well as the ugliness that many would keep hidden. You are about to enter territory that is forbidden to many. This family saga series book for Kindle starts with Paul's life and his courageous actions as a boy at the Battle of Jena (1806). This is where the legend of Paul Brandt as "e;the Angel of Jena"e; is born. As the years progress through these stunning historical dramas, we witness triumph, betrayal, jealousy, and rage - often coming from within his own family. We marvel at the courageous actions of his descendants through more than two centuries, bringing us into the modern age. You are privileged to be reading alternative history fiction that borders on the truth, not a watered down version of the past that replaces fact with fiction. To see the light, your perspective must change. You will experience history as it was - not how it was taught or sold to the gullible. 'History undone' will become of your favourite phrases. At the same time, you will revel in the laughing, loving, feuding, fighting, larger-than-life characters spilling wine on their shirts and pouring fuel on the fire. Prepare to be mightily entertained. Enter The Angel Strikes and find yourself in the woods south of Berlin in 1805. It's the dead of winter, and people are hungry, cold and miserable. Yet if anyone is in this position, it's their own fault. They know it and they'll escape to better times. Join them now and immerse yourself in a world of rich historical drama. You too will thrive.

Blind Defence

By: John Fairfax

Vivid and exciting' The Times WINNER OF THE PRIX DU MASQUE She was found hanging in a dingy London bedsit with a blood orange in her mouth. Diane Heybridge, a young woman without a past or much of a future, has captured in death the compassion denied her in life. For the prosecution, this seeming suicide is nothing more than a bungled killing and a disgusted public looks to Court 2 of the Old Bailey for justice. Her callous, jilted partner Brent Stainsby stands accused of her murder and he's turned to the maverick legal team William Benson and Tess de Vere to defend him. However, as the trial unfolds it soon becomes clear that there is far more to Diane Heybridge than meets the eye. She wasn't the weak and downtrodden victim now being presented to the jury. She was capable of a sophisticated form of vengeance. By the same token, Brent Stainsby isn't who he seems to be either. He's hiding a motive for murder unknown to the police and may well be playing a deadly game of poker with the judicial process. What began as a simple trial rapidly turns into a complex search for the truth beyond the confines of the courtroom...

The Holy Fool

By: Timothy Fairfax Pope

The Holy Fool

Christian Faith and Theology in J.M.R. Lenz

By: Timothy Fairfax Pope

J.M.R. Lenz is remembered as the most creative and original of Goethe's Strasbourg friends and, because of failures in his personal life, as a figure of pathos. The son of a Lutheran pastor who received a theological education at the university of Koenigsberg, Lenz was a religious thinker who saw himself as prophet as well as poet. Timothy Pope's Holy Fool is the first study of Lenz to consider how Christian faith shaped his literary theory and practice and was responsible for his unwise expectations about the increasingly secular world for which he wrote. phenomenon that was linked to the temporary lapses into insanity that he experienced after he was banished, at Goethe's insistence, from the court and city of Weimar. Pope reveals, however, that a dynamic shift in Lenz's faith had occurred four years before the debacle of Weimar. Coherent statements during those four years concerning the articles of his new faith, and a consistent application of faith to questions of poetry and dramatic theory, indicate that Lenz's contribution to the literary revolution of the 1770s was conditioned as much by a personal religious renewal as by enthusiasm for the aims and ideals of his generation. Theologically, Lenz's new convictions followed a path that led away from the neology of the late Enlightenment and pointed not only back to conservative traditions but also forward to the Christology of more modern times.

William Benson. Criminal barrister. Convicted murderer.... Convicted of murder sixteen years ago, William Benson is ostracised by the establishment and his family. Supported by a close-knit group including solicitor Tess de Vere, he's defied them all and opened his own Chambers. Now he faces the case of his life - and the terminal illness of Helen Camberley who helped him leave his prison life behind Jorge Menderez, a doctor from Spain, has been found dead in a deserted warehouse in East London. A troubled man, he'd turned to counsellor Karen Lynwood seeking help. Now Karen's husband, John, is accused of his murder. Who is Menderez, and why did he come to London? Benson is defending the couple against seemingly impossible odds, while secrets from his own past threaten to overwhelm him... Praise for Summary Justice and Blind Defence 'Assured storytelling and highly intriguing moral complexity. I tore through it' Chris Brookmyre 'The courtroom scenes are brilliant, and Benson really comes alive under pressure.

Angel Strikes

By: Edward Fairfax

The Angel Strikes is set in the Napoleonic Wars, but written from the Prussian perspective, from within occupied territory. The Angel Strikes is fast-paced, tense, historical fiction, containing a rich vein of wry humour. The book explores ignored history.The story immerses the reader in the turmoil suffered under occupation. Paul Brandt (as he will become) guides the reader telling his story honestly. He and two uncles are all that remains of a band of Russian peasants fleeing west from starvation and worse. They must fight their way through lands populated by bandits and highwaymen. They stop for winter in a forest south of Berlin.You will be involved in English duplicity as Viscount Castlereagh deceives Bonaparte. You will meet Clausewitz, Gneisenau, Scharnhorst, Blucher and von Boyen as they perfect their plans to defeat the French invader following Napoleon's victory at Jena-Auerstedt. You will meet Tsar Alexander I as Napoleon Bonaparte, the Corsican runt to us the Tsar's nickname for him, closes on Russia's Holy city -Moscow, You will meet General Yorck as he juggles his duty to his Prussian King against the survival of the Prussian Auxiliary force conscripted into the French army marching east and into the Russian winter.Paul Brandt is a survivor fleeing starvation in Russia. With his uncles they take refuge in a forest south of Berlin in 1805. They go to the aid of a coach under attack by robbers, but the passenger dies leaving the promise of a better future in his luggage- if only they could take it! On a winter road they meet Rosina and her mysterious charge Anna. In exchange for shelter Rosina agrees to teach the men how to read. They need to understand the papers in the luggage.But it was an English coach and the French want it. It hides more papers -papers Paul never found. The English also want it back. What happens when Paul's uncle tries to sell the coach to the French?The refugees must flee again. They pass the battlefield of Jena-Auerstedt and the legend of The Angel of Jena is born."e;When there is nothing good to speak of there will always be the story of the Angel of Jena- a boy who held his nerve and stood his ground. Wherever he goes, our men will rally."e;Paul Brandt has a great deal more to do. Who is Rosina? What is her mission? Why do they head south to Saalfeld? They must travel further to Rodental before anything starts to make sense. Even as the grip of the French invader tightens over the German speaking lands the population strives to recover its freedom. The Prussian army reforms and learns new strategies under new leaders. Wellington pushes at Soult in Spain, but by 1812 every road leads to Moscow and Paul and three quarters of a million men must march along it. Bonaparte's army includes half a million French troops, but it is his plan to sacrifice the conscripts from Prussia and Austria in any battle against the Tsar's troops. He is in the midst of half a million deadly enemies. Paul must learn, not just to survive, but to lead if he is to return home where he will face a complex future to say nothing of culpability for grand larceny.

Philosophical Transactions on the Magnetizing Power of the More Refrangible Solar Rays and other Biographical Sketches of Mary Fairfax Somerville

By: Mary Fairfax Somerville

In the year 1813, Professor Morichini of Rome discovered that steel, exposed to the violet rays of the solar spectrum, becomes magnetic. His experiments were repeated by Professor Configliachi at Pavia, and also by Mons. Berard, at Montpellier, without success. I am not aware of any one having attempted them in this country, perhaps from the belief that experiments which had sometimes failed in Italy, were not likely to succeed in our more northern climate. The unusual clearness of the weather last summer, however, induced me to try what could be accomplished in this country. Accordingly, in the month of July, an equiangular prism of flint glass, the three sides of which were each 1,4 by 1,1 inches, was fixed in a slit made to receive it in a window-shutter: by this prism a coloured spectrum was thrown on an opposite panel, at the distance of about five feet. I used for the subject of experiment, a very slender sewing needle an inch long, having previously ascertained that it was quite free from magnetism, by repeated exposure of both ends of it to the north and south pole of a very sensible magnetic needle, when it was found equally to attract either pole in every instance. The magnetic needle employed as a test in this experiment, is made of a sewing needle magnetised, and run through a small piece of cork, into which a conical cap of glass is inserted; the whole traverses on the point of a needle fixed perpendicularly in a stand. I had no information at this time of the manner in which Professor Morichini had conducted his experiments; but it occurred to me that it was not likely that if the whole of the needle were equally exposed to the violet rays, the same influence should, at the same time, produce a south pole at one end of it, and a north pole at the other. I therefore covered half of the needle with paper, and fixed it to the panel with wax, between ten and eleven in the morning, in such a position that the uncovered part of it should be exposed to the violet rays. The needle was placed in a vertical plane, nearly perpendicular to the magnetic meridian, and inclined to the horizon. As I had not a heliostat, it was necessary to move the needle in a direction parallel to itself, to keep the exposed portion of it constantly in the violet ray. The sun was bright at the time, and in less than two hours I had the gratification to find that the end of the needle which had been exposed to the violet rays attracted the south pole of the magnetic needle, and repelled the north pole. It had been previously ascertained that there was no iron near to disturb the results. The experiment was also repeated on the same day, under precisely similar circumstances, with the view of detecting any source of error that might have escaped observation in a first attempt; but the result was the same as in the first.
