Plantations of Virginia

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

Southern plantations are an endless source of fascination. That’s no surprise since these palatial homes are rich in history, representing a pivotal time in U.S. history that truly is “gone with the wind.” With the Civil War literally exploding all around, many of these homes were occupied either by Confederate or Union troops. Nowhere else in the south were plantations so affected by the nation’s bloodiest war than in Virginia. At times, families fled, leaving behind slaves to manage the property. There are still more than 60 plantations in Virginia today, most of them open to the public. Some have been restored, others undergoing that process. If only the walls could talk, the stories we might hear! That’s what we hope to bring into this book on The Plantations of Virginia. We’ll take the tours and talk to the guides and dig even further if there is more to discover. We hope that travelers will be enlightened before they travel to Virginia, their visits will thus be enriched, and that residents will equally love exploring this deep history of Virginia. Accompanying the text will be photographs, taken by one of the authors, showing, in all their splendor, the exteriors of these plantations, as well as areas of interest inside the buildings.

The People Talking in My Head

By: Adriana Jai Wynn-Yeldell

Aira is at it again yall. The ex-school teacher is now happily married and a full-time mother. She and Adam has provided love and security for their family in the big house nestled between trees on the land he had always dreamed of owning. Is there a such thing as happily ever after? Or is it more realistic to take it day by day? They wanted it all and went after it, and Aira's journal became thick with her ideas, poems and stories of The Mayfield's and their big crazy family. Still grounded in traditions, her friendship with Mercedes and Debra, she describes in her special way the detail of their lives, and the bond that helps them all through the changes and adversity we all journey through each day. They are wild, loyal and generous just like the people you know.

Before, After, and Enduring Love

By: Jai Saemoore

“The act of forgiveness is an illusion brought on by temporary insanity. It never fails, the illusion melts away in the heat of any decent argument.” I looked pass Terrance and saw that we were being watched... Kennedy Elyce Thomas is a fifth grade educator at an inner city school in Atlanta, whose passion for providing life and academic lessons to her students is hitting closer to home this school year. Living her life as an endangered species, one of the world’s few self-proclaimed commitment phobic females, has proven to be a reliable and successful method for avoiding love’s corruption. Nevertheless, her beliefs are tested and her world is shattered after a new teacher, Terrance Amire, is hired for the upcoming school year. Through a school year wrought with relentless ex’s, dramatic yet loving friends, family and all that entails, romance, anger, and love, what will be created? Will the year establish a genuine relationship or merely an attachment that will fizzle out at the first sign of emotional rain? Is Terrance determined enough and is Kennedy strong enough to overcome their largest romantic obstacle: Kennedy herself? Only the pages will tell. In this contemporary, African-American romance, Kennedy learns that enlightenment is not solely for the students in her class, but at times, for the teachers as well. Overall, with the help of her friends, Kennedy soon discovers that while there is life Before and After love, Enduring Love is a completely different adventure.

Military Robots

Mapping the Moral Landscape

By: Jai Galliott

Philosophers have wrestled over the morality and ethics of war for nearly as long as human beings have been waging it. The death and destruction that unmanned warfare entails magnifies the moral and ethical challenges we face in conventional warfare and everyday society. Intrinsically linked are questions and perennial problems concerning what justifies the initial resort to war, who may be legitimately targeted in warfare, who should be permitted to serve the military, the collateral effects of military weaponry and the methods of determining and dealing with violations of the laws of war. This book provides a comprehensive and unifying analysis of the moral, political and social questions concerning the rise of drone warfare.

The Pillars of Priestcraft Shaken

The Pillars of Priestcraft Shaken

The Church of England and Its Enemies, 1660-1730

By: J. A. I. Champion

First published in 1992, this book examines the intellectual confrontation between priest and Freethinker from 1660 to 1730, and the origins of the early phase of the Enlightenment in England. Through an analysis of the practice of historical writing in the period, Champion maintains that historical argument was a central component for displaying defences of true religion. Taking religion, and specifically defences of the Church of England after 1660, as central to the politics of the period, the first two chapters of the book explore the varieties of clericalist histories, arguing that there were rival emphases upon regnum or sacerdos as the font of true religion. The remainder of the book examines how radical Freethinkers like John Toland or the third Earl of Shaftesbury set about attacking the corrupt priestcraft of established religion, but also importantly promoted a reforming civil theology.

Unprecedented?

How COVID-19 Revealed the Politics of Our Economy

By: William Davies,Sahil Jai Dutta,Nick Taylor,Martina Tazzioli

A critical and evidence-based account of the COVID-19 pandemic as a political–economic rupture, exposing underlying power struggles and social injustices. The dawn of the COVID-19 pandemic represented an exceptional interruption in the routines of work, financial markets, movement across borders and education. The policies introduced in response were said to be unprecedented—but the distribution of risks and rewards was anything but. While asset-owners, outsourcers, platforms and those in spacious homes prospered, others faced new hardships and dangers. Unprecedented? explores the events of 2020-21, as they afflicted the UK economy, as a means to grasp the underlying dynamics of contemporary capitalism, which are too often obscured from view. It traces the political and cultural contours of a "rentier nationalism," that was lurking prior to the pandemic, but was accelerated and illuminated by COVID-19. But it also pinpoints the contradictions and weaknesses of this capitalist model, and the new sources of opposition that it meets. An empirical, accessible and critical analysis of the COVID economy, Unprecedented? is essential reading for anyone seeking to understand the political and economic turbulence of the pandemic’s first eighteen months.
