The Cross of Sacrifice: Officers Who Died in the Service of British, Indian and East African Regiments and Corps, 1914-1919

By: S. D. & D. B. Jarvis

A tremendous piece of research, conducted over ten years, in which are listed, in alphabetical order, the names of over 60,000 officers of the British Empire who died during the Great War, including nurses and female aid workers. Based on the CWGC Registers, the information provided includes not only that shown in ‘Officers Died' but also the place of burial or commemoration. The alphabetical listing means that looking up a name does not require prior knowledge of the regiment (as in ‘Officers Died') though this information is given, as well as cross-reference to the relevant page number in ‘Officers Died’.

The Suburban Society

The Suburban Society

By: S.D. Clark

By questioning the widely accepted picture of suburban society which has been developed by many sociologists, social psychologists, and other serious students of social science, as well as by popular writers, this book will challenge much of our thinking about certain trends and developments in present-day society. The author, a distinguished Canadian sociologist, shows that there is no essential difference between the new society of the suburbs and any other new society in terms of the kind of forces which produced it. The suburban societies so far studied, he maintains, have been selected because they conform to the existing stereotype, and so the myths have been perpetuated. Professor Clark pays special attention to the mass-developed suburbs. He shows that most suburban dwellers live in areas undergoing mass development, and that in such areas none of the characteristics commonly attributed to suburbia are to be found. The people who have moved to the suburbs in such large numbers are not, the author claims, "other directed" as Riesman would maintain, or "organization men" as Whyte has called them. They were, rather, mainly interested in finding houses to live in, having been forced out of the city in search of living space. By examining a number of suburban areas around Toronto, Professor Clark shows how the suburban society developed from crude beginnings, lacking almost all the attributes of a society, to a society largely urban in character.

So Far from God

The U.S. War With Mexico, 1846-1848

By: John S.D. Eisenhower

The Mexican-American War of the 1840s, precipitated by border disputes and the U.S. annexation of Texas, ended with the military occupation of Mexico City by General Winfield Scott. In the subsequent treaty, the United States gained territory that would become California, Nevada, New Mexico, Arizona, Utah, and parts of Wyoming and Colorado. In this highly readable account, John S. D. Eisenhower provides a comprehensive survey of this frequently overlooked war. NOTE: This edition does not include photographs.

Whirlwind

By: S.D. Cook

A widow for thirty years, Lydia Hughes has a calm, relatively predictable life of work and living alone. But when she meets cardiologist Duncan Stewart while attending a conference in Seattle, her world is turned inside out. In slightly over forty-eight hours, she’s engaged to be married and trying to decide what to keep and what to leave when she moves to Washington state. But there’s a catch. Duncan’s sister, Penny, is jealous of any woman Duncan cares about, especially Lydia. Duncan is certain Penny was responsible for the deaths of their parents, and he fears that she intends to harm Lydia. As a physician in a stressful specialty, he is used to getting what he wants, and he is as determined to keep Lydia safe as he is to making her his wife. No matter his determination, “accidents” and “near misses” happen, which endanger Lydia’s life and make her question just how well she knows the man she is going to marry. It seems even Mother Nature wants her dead when a natural disaster rips through her town. Lydia is pulled into a vortex of danger, and she comes to realize that in spite of Duncan’s promises to keep her safe, she alone must face Penny in a final confrontation. And only one of them can survive.

Boardinghouse Women

How Southern Keepers, Cooks, Nurses, Widows, and Runaways Shaped Modern America

By: Elizabeth S. D. Engelhardt

Boardinghouse Women

How Southern Keepers, Cooks, Nurses, Widows, and Runaways Shaped Modern America

By: Elizabeth S. D. Engelhardt

In this innovative and insightful book, Elizabeth Engelhardt argues that modern American food, business, caretaking, politics, sex, travel, writing, and restaurants all owe a debt to boardinghouse women in the South. From the eighteenth century well into the twentieth, entrepreneurial women ran boardinghouses throughout the South; some also carried the institution to far-flung places like California, New York, and London. Owned and operated by Black, Jewish, Native American, and white women, rich and poor, immigrant and native-born, these lodgings were often hubs of business innovation and engines of financial independence for their owners. Within their walls, boardinghouse residents and owners developed the region's earliest printed cookbooks, created space for making music and writing literary works, formed ad hoc communities of support, tested boundaries of race and sexuality, and more. Engelhardt draws on a vast archive to recover boardinghouse women's stories, revealing what happened in the kitchens, bedrooms, hallways, back stairs, and front porches as well as behind closed doors—legacies still with us today.

Red Deer

Behavior and Ecology of Two Sexes

By: T. H. Clutton-Brock,F. E. Guinness,S. D. Albon

Red Deer: Behavior and Ecology of Two Sexes is the most extensive study yet available of reproduction in wild vertebrate. The authors synthesize data collected over ten years on a population of individually recognizable red deer, usually regarded as conspecific with the American elk. Their results reveal the extent of sex differences in behavior, reproduction, and ecology and make a substantial contribution to our understanding of sexual selection.

The Cross of Sacrifice: NCOs, Men and Women of the UK, Commonwealth and Empire Who Died in the Service of the Royal Navy, Royal Marines, Royal Navy Air Service, Royal Flying Corp and the RAF 1914-1921

Including the Commonwealth Navies and Air Forces

By: S. D. & D. B. Jarvis

This list is set out in two sections: The Royal Navy with the Navies of the Empire and the Royal Marines; and The Royal Naval Air Service, Royal Flying Corps and Royal Air Force. As with the other volumes in the series date and place of death are given with place of burial or commemoration. This volume breaks new ground by recording the deaths and burial sites of other ranks, and extending the date of research to 1921. The title is not exactly right since it makes no mention of Warrant Officers who are included in the lists.
