    Book SynopsisThe American South is so identified with the Civil War that people often forget that the key battles from the final years of the American Revolution were fought in Southern states. The Southern backcountry was the center of the fight for independence, but backcountry devotion to the Patriot cause was slow in coming. Decades of animosity between coastal elites and backcountry settlers who did not enjoy accurate representation in the assemblies meant a complex political and social milieu throughout this turbulent time. The Battles of Kings Mountain and Cowpens brings to light the world of the Southern backcountry that engendered its role in the Revolutionary War. With careful attention to political, social, and military history, Walker concentrates on the communities and events not typically covered in books on the Revolutionary War. Through government documents, autobiographies, correspondence, and diaries, The Battles of Kings Mountain and Cowpens gives studTrade ReviewKings Mountain and Cowpens exemplified the extent to which the American Revolution was a civil war that divided many communities. Melissa Walker presents a lucid narrative of these pivotal battles. Her superb selection of primary sources includes both dramatic eyewitness accounts and compelling vignettes of backcountry life. Cynthia A. Kierner, author of A Perfect Temper: The Life and Times of Martha Jefferson RandolphRoutledge’s Critical Moments in American History series is designed to “give students a window into the historian’s craft through concise readable books…[that] bring together the best scholarship and engaging primary sources…” (p. viii). Melissa Walker’s The Battles of Kings Mountain and Cowpens does exactly this in a user-friendly format that will attract undergraduates...Walker has written a book that demonstrates the complexity of the American Revolutionary War in the southern backcountry...[and those] who want a well-written synopsis of thistopic for use in a college classroom, should consider this book.Michael P. Gabriel, Kutztown University of PennsylvaniaTable of ContentsChapter one: The Southern Backcountry Before the American RevolutionChapter two: Imperial Crisis in the SouthChapter three: Revolutionary War and the Challenge of Winning Hearts and MindsChapter four: The South’s first civil war: the fall of Charles Town and its aftermath Chapter five: Kings Mountain: "first link in a chain"Chapter six: The Battle of Cowpens: Victory for "The Flying Army"Chapter seven: DenouementDocuments

  • Taylor & Francis Ltd Colonialism Race and the French Romantic

    15 in stock

    Book SynopsisThis book investigates how French Romanticism was shaped by and contributed to colonial discourses of race. It studies the ways in which metropolitan Romantic novelsthat is, novels by French authors such as Victor Hugo, George Sand, Bernardin de Saint-Pierre, François René de Chateaubriand, Claire de Duras, and Prosper Mériméecomprehend and construct colonized peoples, fashion French identity in the context of colonialism, and record the encounter between Europeans and non-Europeans. While the primary texts that come under investigation in the book are novels, close attention is paid to Romantic fiction's interdependence with naturalist treatises, travel writing, abolitionist texts, and ethnographies. Colonialism, Race, and the French Romantic Imagination is one of the first books to carry out a sustained and comprehensive analysis of the French Romantic novel's racial imagination that encompasses several sites of colonial contact: the Indian Ocean, North America, thTable of ContentsNote on Translations, Pratima Prasad; Introduction, Pratima Prasad; Chapter 1 The White Native, Pratima Prasad; Chapter 2 The Métis, Pratima Prasad; Chapter 3 The Disciplined Savage, Pratima Prasad; Chapter 4 The Black Aristocrat, Pratima Prasad; Chapter 5 The Rebellious Slave, Pratima Prasad; Chapter 102 Epilogue, Pratima Prasad;

    Book SynopsisA new and revised edition of Alan Skedâs groundbreaking book which examines how the Habsburg Empire survived the revolutionary turmoil of 1848.âThe Year of Revolutions', saw the whole of Europe convulsed in turmoil and revolt. Yet the Habsburg Empire survived. As state after state succumbed to the violent winds of change that were sweeping the continent. How did the Habsburg Empire survive? How was the army able hold together while the rest of the empire collapsed in civil war, and how was it able to seize the political initiative In this new edition, Alan Sked reflects on the changed understanding of the period which resulted from the first appearance of this book, and widens the discussion to look at the Habsburg Empire alongside the decline of the Russian and German Empires, arguing that it is possible to understand their decline from a broad European perspective, as opposed to the overly narrow focus of recent explanations. Alan Sked makes us look at familiar events with new eyes in this radical, vigorously written classic which is essential reading for anyone interested in the history of nineteenth-century Europe.Trade Review'This is a book to be savoured and relished...rich in anecdote, irony, paradox, and intelligence, it is a must for anyone...looking for an example of historical writing in its most lively, informative and attractive form.'

    Book SynopsisIn this impressive and ambitious survey Dr Bayly studies the rise, apogee and decline of what has come to be called `the Second British Empire'' -- the great expansion of British dominion overseas (particularly in Asia and the Middle East) during the French Revolutionary and Napoleonic era that, coming between the loss of America and the subsequent partition of Africa, constitutes the central phase of British imperial history.Trade Review'This is a rich and ambitious book. Its purpose is to put into focus developments throughout the world in the age of the French Revolution and the Napoleonic Wars and their aftermath.
