Charleston, South Carolina City Directories for the Years 1830-1841

By: James William Hagy

This work establishes the precise location of the site of "shares" or "home lots" of five acres each belonging to Roger Williams and the other original settlers of the Providence, Rhode Island. Perhaps more importantly for genealogists it also consists of short biographical and genealogical essays of the owners of the lots, virtually all of them containing references to the settlers' origins in England

This Far and No Further

Photographs Inspired by the Voting Rights Movement

By: William Abranowicz,Zander Abranowicz

Standing on the Edmund Pettus Bridge in Selma, Alabama, in 2017, photographer William Abranowicz was struck by the weight of historical memory at this hallowed site of one of the civil rights movement's defining episodes: 1965's “Bloody Sunday,” when Alabama police officers attacked peaceful marchers. To Abranowicz’s eye, Selma seemed relatively unchanged from its apperance in the photographs Walker Evans made there in the 1930s. That, coupled with an awareness of renewed voter suppression efforts at state and federal levels, inspired Abranowicz to explore the living legacy of the civil and voting rights movement through photographing locations, landscapes, and individuals associated with the struggle, from Rosa Parks and Harry Belafonte to the barn where Emmett Till was murdered. The result is This Far and No Further, a collection of photographs from Abranowicz's journey through the American South. Through symbolism, metaphor, and history, he unearths extraordinary stories of brutality, heroism, sacrifice, and redemption hidden within ordinary American landscapes, underscoring the crucial necessity of defending—and exercising—our right to vote at this tenuous moment for American democracy.

Robert A. Heinlein: Volume I

Learning Curve, 1907–1948

By: William H. Patterson

For the first time, the real story of the life of Robert A. Heinlein in the authorized biography Robert A. Heinlein (1907-1988) is generally considered the greatest American SF writer of the 20th century. A famous and bestselling author in later life, he started as a navy man and graduate of Annapolis who was forced to retire because of tuberculosis. A socialist politician in the 1930s, he became one of the sources of Libertarian politics in the USA in his later years. His most famous works include the Future History series (stories and novels collected in The Past Through Tomorrow and continued in later novels), Starship Troopers, Stranger in a Strange Land, and The Moon is a Harsh Mistress. Given his desire for privacy in the later decades of his life, he was both stranger and more interesting than one could ever have known. This is the first of two volumes of a major American biography. This volume is about Robert A. Heinlein's life up to the end of the 1940s and the mid-life crisis that changed him forever. At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.

Triage

By: William Walling

Be fruitful," advises Judeo-Christian Scripture, “and multiply, and replenish the earth.’ Eight centuries BCE the global population was inferred to have been roughly five millions, soaring to between 50 and 60 millions when Julius Caesar fell, and escalating in the mid-17th century to about a half-billion. The significant benchmark of one billion reached circa 1804 doubled in 123 years to 2 billions in 1927, to 3 billions in 1960.Only 14 years later in 1974, 4 billions crowded the world, growing to 5 billions by 1987, 6 by 1999, and 7 billions in late 2011. Despite wars, famines, pestilence, climate change effects and a plethora of natural disasters, the relentless numbers keep marching upward at the alarming, exponential rate of three to five births per second, eleven to fifteen thousand per hour, hence global projections by the U.S. Census Bureau and United Nations will reach eight billions by 2027, and in a relatively short span approximately 9 billions by 2046. But what lies beyond the crucial nexus when our planet can no longer tolerate the succeeding multitudes? Learn the draconian population control tactic illustrated in TRIAGE, and pray that this fictional account never becomes a reality.
