The Fighting Little Judge

The Life and Times of George C. Wallace

By: Jeffrey K. Smith

For over a quarter of a century, in unprecedented fashion, George C. Wallace dominated the political scene in the state of Alabama. During that time span, Wallace was elected Governor on four separate occasions. He also orchestrated the successful election of an unlikely proxy candidate (his wife, Lurleen) to Alabama's Governor's office. Bolstered by his successes at home, Wallace took his campaign to the national level, and ran for President four times. A master of inflammatory rhetoric and racial innuendo, the feisty Alabamian correctly sensed that his States' Rights message would appeal to voters outside of Alabama. Wallace soon became a thorn in the side of established politicians in both the Democratic and Republican parties. At the zenith of Wallace's political career, a deranged stalker gunned him down. Condemned to life in a wheelchair and riddled with pain, his national political career ended in a hail of bullets. In Alabama, Wallace's popularity was undiminished, and he was twice more elected Governor. George Wallace is best remembered for his ardent opposition to the Civil Rights movement. In 1962, the newly elected Governor vowed to maintain "segregation forever." His defiant stance against the forces of social change led to his deification by fellow segregationists and vilification by Civil Rights advocates. A repentant George Wallace eventually sought the forgiveness and support of black voters. Ironically, during his last gubernatorial campaign, he won the overwhelming majority of Alabama's African American vote. The Fighting Little Judge: The Life and Times of George C. Wallace, tells the story of a remarkable life, filled with triumph, tragedy, and redemption.

Greene and Cornwallis in the Carolinas

The Pivotal Struggle in the American Revolution, 1780-1781

By: Jeffrey A. Denman,John F. Walsh

The story of the Revolutionary War in the Northern colonies is well known but the war that raged across the South in 1780-1781--considered by some the "unknown Revolution"--included some of the most important yet least studied engagements. Drawing extensively on their letters, this book follows the campaigns of General Nathanael Greene and Lord Charles Cornwallis as they fought across the Carolinas, and offers a compelling look at their leadership. The theater of war in which the two commanders operated was populated by various ethnic and religious groups and separated geographically, economically and politically into the low country and the simmering backcountry, setting the stage for what was to come.

Fleas

By: Jeffrey DeRego

The Grandview Flea Market and Farmer's Exchange (or The 'View) is an oasis of gray-market commerce where antiques of questionable vintage fight for space against an explosion of bootleg designer vinyl handbags and the Chinese vendors who hock them. 5 acres of muck and mire, Italian sausages and hamburgers, comic books and handbags, cheap plastic toys and classic records all baked under the summer sun like Hell's garage sale. The center of that Hell is Istanbul, a former dairy barn, dancehall, and bingo parlor now a great indoor bazaar where the old guard of The 'View barter their junk. Spend a weekend with the dwellers and sellers of the 'View as they navigate this world of cash-only commerce. Each tale stands alone but offers pieces of a larger story told throughout around the question of who killed Flannery Collins and what does that mean to those who call the 'View home?

Tiltwallism

A Treatise on Architectual Potential of Tiltwall Construction

By: Jeffrey Blaine Brown,The Images Publishing Group

Written by Jeffrey Brown AIA, Tiltwallism is designed to be an introductory resource to architects and an inspiration to contractors, developers and structural consultants who have encountered the technology of Tilt Wall construction. The vast amount of trade and technical information available on the subject is interpreted in a formal treatment for the first time on a subject at the forefront of the architectural role in an era of lowered construction costs. Brown provides a full synthetic treatment of Tilt Wall construction by laying out the design opportunities in engaging in the architectural exploration of a low technology / low cost form of construction. He explains its history, methodology, and relationship to current architectural approaches to meaning. Brown writes in a balanced style targeted at both architects and academics that will also be accessible to non-architects and allied professionals. The title is richly illustrated in an effort to be useful to the many ancillary professions such as contractors, developers, and real estate brokers who are driving this increasingly prevalent approach to “investment” architecture.

How War on Terror Veterans in Congress Are Shaping US Defense Policy

Staying in the Fight

How War on Terror Veterans in Congress Are Shaping US Defense Policy

By: Jeffrey S. Lantis

During the chaotic evacuation of the United States from Afghanistan in 2021, a group of Congress members who were also military veterans of the War on Terror leapt into action to assist vulnerable people in Afghanistan who had aided the American war effort. This cohort of legislators and their staffs on Capitol Hill created hotlines and worked 24-hour shifts in an intense effort to save lives, often coordinating between government agencies, informal networks of veterans' groups, and contacts on the ground in Kabul. In the process, many veteran lawmakers also became vocal critics of presidential management of the crisis and said they felt a moral obligation to act. In Staying in the Fight: How War on Terror Veterans in Congress Are Shaping U.S. Defense Policy, author Jeffrey S. Lantis shines a spotlight on this cohort of legislators and their unique position in the American government. By using exclusive interview data, archival sources, statistics, process -tracing, and comparative case methodology, Lantis illustrates ways that policy interventions and activism by veterans on both sides of the aisle have shaped America's involvement in conflicts from Afghanistan to Ukraine. The first study of its kind to focus on this new generation of military veterans and their role in foreign and security policy decision-making, Staying in the Fight speaks directly to debates in civil-military relations, veterans' studies, and research on congressional foreign policy advocacy.

Artificial Intelligence for Business

A Roadmap for Getting Started with AI

By: Jason L. Anderson,Jeffrey L. Coveyduc

Artificial Intelligence for Business: A Roadmap for Getting Started with AI will provide the reader with an easy to understand roadmap for how to take an organization through the adoption of AI technology. It will first help with the identification of which business problems and opportunities are right for AI and how to prioritize them to maximize the likelihood of success. Specific methodologies are introduced to help with finding critical training data within an organization and how to fill data gaps if they exist. With data in hand, a scoped prototype can be built to limit risk and provide tangible value to the organization as a whole to justify further investment. Finally, a production level AI system can be developed with best practices to ensure quality with not only the application code, but also the AI models. Finally, with this particular AI adoption journey at an end, the authors will show that there is additional value to be gained by iterating on this AI adoption lifecycle and improving other parts of the organization.

Essential Reagents for Organic Synthesis

By: Philip L. Fuchs,André B. Charette,Tomislav Rovis,Jeffrey W. Bode

From Boron Trifluoride to Zinc, the 52 most widely used reagents in organic synthesis are described in this unique desktop reference for every organic chemist. The list of reagents contains classics such as N-Bromosuccinimide (NBS) and Trifluoromethanesulfonic Acid side by side with recently developed ones like Pinacolborane and Tetra-n-propylammonium Perruthenate (TPAP). For each reagent, a concise article provides a brief description of all important reactions for which the reagent is being used, including yields and reaction conditions, an overview of the physical properties of the reagent, its storage conditions, safe handling, laboratory synthesis and purification methods. Advantages and disadvantages of the reagent compared to alternative synthesis methods are also discussed. Reagents have been hand-picked from among the 5000 reagents contained in EROS, the Encyclopedia of Reagents for Organic Synthesis. Every organic chemist should be familiar with these key reagents that can make almost every reaction work.
