Henry Bradley Plant Gilded Age Dreams for Florida and a New South【電子書籍】[ Canter Brown ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p><strong>The first biography of Henry Bradley Plant, the entrepreneur and business magnate considered the father of modern Florida</strong></p> <p>In this landmark biography, Canter Brown Jr. makes evident the extent of Henry Bradley Plant’s influences throughout North, Central, and South America as well as his role in the emergence of integrated transportation and a national tourism system. One of the preeminent historians of Florida, Brown brings this important but understudied figure in American history to the foreground.</p> <p><em>Henry Bradley Plant: Gilded Age Dreams for Florida and a New South</em> carefully examines the complicated years of adventure and activity that marked Plant’s existence, from his birth in Connecticut in 1819 to his somewhat mysterious death in New York City in 1899. Brown illuminates Plant’s vision and perspectives for the state of Florida and the country as a whole and traces many of his influences back to events from his childhood and early adulthood. The book also elaborates on Plant’s controversial Civil War relationships and his utilization of wartime earnings in the postwar era to invest in the bankrupt Southern rail lines. With the success of his businesses such as the Southern Express Company and the Tampa Bay Hotel, Plant transformed Florida into a hub for trade and tourismーtraits we still recognize in the Florida of today.</p> <p>This thoroughly researched biography fills important gaps in Florida’s social and economic history and sheds light on a historical figure to an extent never previously undertaken or sufficiently appreciated. Both informative and innovative, Brown’s volume will be a valuable resource for scholars and general readers interested in Southern history, business history, Civil War?era history, and transportation history.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

The People's Network The Political Economy of the Telephone in the Gilded Age【電子書籍】[ Robert MacDougall ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>The Bell System dominated telecommunications in the United States and Canada for most of the twentieth century, but its monopoly was not inevitable. In the decades around 1900, ordinary citizensーfarmers, doctors, small-town entrepreneursーestablished tens of thousands of independent telephone systems, stringing their own wires to bring this new technology to the people. Managed by opportunists and idealists alike, these small businesses were motivated not only by profit but also by the promise of open communication as a weapon against monopoly capital and for protection of regional autonomy. As the Bell empire grew, independents fought fiercely to retain control of their local networks and companiesーa struggle with an emerging corporate giant that has been almost entirely forgotten.</p> <p><em>The People's Network</em> reconstructs the story of the telephone's contentious beginnings, exploring the interplay of political economy, business strategy, and social practice in the creation of modern North American telecommunications. Drawing from government documents in the United States and Canada, independent telephone journals and publications, and the archives of regional Bell operating companies and their rivals, Robert MacDougall locates the national debates over the meaning, use, and organization of the telephone industry as a turning point in the history of information networks. The competing businesses represented dueling political philosophies: regional versus national identity and local versus centralized power. Although independent telephone companies did not win their fight with big business, they fundamentally changed the way telecommunications were conceived.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア

<p><strong>“Minnie Wallace Walkup Ketcham’s criminal career as an unsung triple murderess and black widow . . . is told in rich detail and with pleasingly dark wit.” ーKeven McQueen, author of <em>Louisville Murder & Mayhem</em></strong></p> <p>What’s a gal to do when her loaded lover is getting to be a nuisance? Why, just murder him and take all his money, of course. If you want to be fabulously single with tons of cash, just follow the lead of the beautiful and conniving Minnie Wallace Walkup Ketcham, who left a trail of broken hearts, empty wallets, and corpses.</p> <p>Minnie was just 16 when she stood trial in 1885 for the wrongful death of her first husband, a successful businessman and politician almost 40 years her senior. Despite overwhelming witness testimony that the Creole beauty from New Orleans had purchased the arsenic that killed him, Minnie’s own testimony brought the entire courtroom to tears. She was acquitted. Minnie returned to New Orleans with James Walkup’s fortune, life insurance, Civil War pension, and all the expensive clothes she had shipped home before he even died.</p> <p>Minnie still didn’t have enough cash for her liking, so she successfully targeted, seduced, and murdered two more wealthy older men while evading justice in the courtroom (and escaping her lawyer’s fees, too). How to Murder Your Wealthy Lovers and Get Away With It is an extraordinary and off-the-wall true story of intrigue, scandal, and murder.</p> <p><strong>“Compelling and entertaining . . . A great guide to one of America’s most thrilling true stories.” ーMike Flannery, political editor, FOX 32 News Chicago</strong></p> <p><strong>“This gossipy true crime account paints a comprehensive portrait of a woman shrouded in mystery.” ー<em>Publishers Weekly</em></strong></p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

The novella is characterized by James's signature style, which deftly blends psychological insight with social commentary, inviting readers to navigate the complexities of human relationships and ethical dilemmas. With carefully constructed prose and a keen focus on character development, James delves into the themes of ambition, wealth, and social standing, raising questions about the cost of success and the nature of integrity.

Food in the Gilded Age What Ordinary Americans Ate【電子書籍】[ Robert Dirks ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>The Gilded Age is renowned for a variety of reasons, including its culture of conspicuous consumption among the newly rich. In the domain of food, conspicuous consumption manifested itself in appetites for expensive dishes and lavish dinner parties. These received ample publicity at the time, resulting later on in well-developed historical depictions of upper-class eating habits.</p> <p>This book delves into the eating habits of people of lesser means. Concerning the African American community, the working class, the impoverished, immigrants, and others our historical representations have been relatively superficial. The author changes that by turning to the late nineteenth century’s infant science of nutrition for a look at eating and drinking through the lens of the earliest food consumption studies conducted in the United States. These were undertaken by scientists, mostly chemists, who left their laboratories to observe food consumption in kitchens, dining rooms, and various institutional settings. Their insistence on careful measurement resulted in a substantial body of detailed reports on the eating habits of ordinary people. This work sheds new light on what most Americans were cooking and eating during the Gilded Age.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Eden: An Episode Decadence, Desire, and Moral Decay in Gilded Age New York【電子書籍】[ Edgar Saltus ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>In "Eden: An Episode," Edgar Saltus presents a provocative exploration of human desire, morality, and the paradox of paradise through a richly poetic and symbol-laden narrative. Set against the backdrop of a mythic Eden, Saltus delves into the complexities of love and temptation, employing an exquisite, often impressionistic style that is deeply influenced by the aesthetic movements of the late 19th century. The novella intertwines philosophical discourses with vivid imagery, challenging readers to reflect on the essence of innocence, fallibility, and the human condition, making it not just a story but a profound meditation on existence itself. Edgar Saltus, an American writer and philosopher known for his unconventional views and distinctive prose, was deeply influenced by his experiences in the tumultuous period of intellectual modernism. His fascination with decadence and the struggles between passion and societal constraints led him to craft this unsettling tale, positioning "Eden" as a critique of both contemporary and biblical narratives regarding the nature of good and evil. Saltus'??s unique background and intellectual pursuits lend depth to his work, encouraging readers to engage with the themes in a multifaceted manner. This work is highly recommended for readers who appreciate literary modernism and the exploration of philosophical themes within fiction. Saltus'??s ability to weave together rich narrative with thought-provoking ideas makes "Eden: An Episode" a compelling read for anyone interested in the intersections of literature, morality, and human experience.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Caldemeyer shows that they acted according to what they believed would benefit them and their families. As corporations moved to control coal markets and unions sought to centralize their organizations to check corporate control, workers were often caught between these institutions and sided with whichever one offered the best advantage in the moment. Workers chased profits while paying union dues, rejected national unions while forming local orders, and broke strikes while claiming to be union members. This pragmatic form of unionism differed from what union leaders expected of rank-and-file members, but for many workers the choice to follow or reject union orders was a path to better pay, stability, and independence in an otherwise unstable age.</p> <p>Nuanced and eye-opening, <em>Union Renegades</em> challenges popular notions of workers attitudes during the Gilded Age.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

The Age of Innocence Love and Society in Gilded Age New York【電子書籍】[ Edith Wharton ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>Set against the vibrant backdrop of New York City's high society in the 1870s, Edith Wharton's "The Age of Innocence" masterfully explores the intricate tensions between societal expectations and personal desire. Wharton employs a rich, evocative prose style, characterized by its keen social observation and psychological depth, to unravel the complex dynamics of love, duty, and the pursuit of happiness. The narrative revolves around Newland Archer, a young lawyer entangled in a web of conventions, as he grapples with his feelings for the unconventional May Welland and her scandalous cousin, Ellen Olenska. Wharton critiques the hypocrisies of aristocratic society, employing a subtle irony that allows readers to reflect on the nature of innocence and the cost of societal acceptance. Edith Wharton, the first woman to win the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction, was deeply influenced by her own experiences navigating the upper echelons of American society. Having grown up in a wealthy family, Wharton became acutely aware of the rigid social mores that governed personal relationships. This background inspired her to delve into themes of class, gender, and morality, making "The Age of Innocence" not only a reflection of its time but also a timeless commentary on the societal structures that continue to shape human interactions. This novel is a poignant and thought-provoking exploration of the conflict between personal aspiration and societal obligation. Wharton's incisive social commentary, combined with her richly drawn characters, makes "The Age of Innocence" a must-read for anyone interested in the intersections of love and duty within the constraining spheres of culture. It challenges readers to consider the price of conformity, making it a profound yet accessible work that resonates through the ages.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Making Catholic America Religious Nationalism in the Gilded Age and Progressive Era【電子書籍】[ William S. Cossen ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p><strong>In</strong> <em><strong>Making Catholic America</strong></em>**, William S. Cossen shows how Catholic men and women worked to prove themselves to be model American citizens in the decades between the Civil War and the Great Depression.** Far from being outsiders in American history, Catholics took command of public life in the early twentieth century, claiming leadership in the growing American nation. They produced their own version of American history and claimed the power to remake the nation in their own image, arguing that they were the country's most faithful supporters of freedom and liberty and that their church had birthed American independence. <em>Making Catholic America</em> offers a new interpretation of American life in the Gilded Age and Progressive Era, demonstrating the surprising success of an often-embattled religious group in securing for itself a place in the national community and in profoundly altering what it meant to be an American in the modern world.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Party Games Getting, Keeping, and Using Power in Gilded Age Politics【電子書籍】[ Mark Wahlgren Summers ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>Much of late-nineteenth-century American politics was parade and pageant. Voters crowded the polls, and their votes made a real difference on policy. In <em>Party Games</em>, Mark Wahlgren Summers tells the full story and admires much of the political carnival, but he adds a cautionary note about the dark recesses: vote-buying, election-rigging, blackguarding, news suppression, and violence.<br /> Summers also points out that hardball politics and third-party challenges helped make the parties more responsive. Ballyhoo did not replace government action. In order to maintain power, major parties not only rigged the system but also gave dissidents part of what they wanted. The persistence of a two-party system, Summers concludes, resulted from its adaptability, as well as its ruthlessness. Even the reform of political abuses was shaped to fit the needs of the real owners of the political system--the politicians themselves.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

The Gilded Age【電子書籍】[ Mark Twain ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>This book was not written for private circulation among friends; it was not written to cheer and instruct a diseased relative of the author's; it was not thrown off during intervals of wearing labor to amuse an idle hour. It was not written for any of these reasons, and therefore it is submitted without the usual apologies. It will be seen that it deals with an entirely ideal state of society; and the chief embarrassment of the writers in this realm of the imagination has been the want of illustrative examples. In a State where there is no fever of speculation, no inflamed desire for sudden wealth, where the poor are all simpleーminded and contented, and the rich are all honest and generous, where society is in a condition of primitive purity and politics is the occupation of only the capable and the patriotic, there are necessarily no materials for such a history as we have constructed out of an ideal commonwealth. No apology is needed for following the learned custom of placing attractive scraps of literature at the heads of our chapters. It has been truly observed by Wagner that such headings, with their vague suggestions of the matter which is to follow them, pleasantly inflame the reader's interest without wholly satisfying his curiosity, and we will hope that it may be found to be so in the present case. Our quotations are set in a vast number of tongues; this is done for the reason that very few foreign nations among whom the book will circulate can read in any language but their own; whereas we do not write for a particular class or sect or nation, but to take in the whole world</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

The Millionaire and the Mummies Theodore Davis's Gilded Age in the Valley of the Kings【電子書籍】[ John M. Adams ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p><strong>A biography of the Gilded Age American lawyer & tycoon, exploring his exploits from New York City’s government to the ancient tombs in Luxor, Egypt.</strong></p> <p>Egypt, the Valley of the Kings, 1905: An American robber baron peers through the hole he has cut in an ancient tomb wall and discovers the richest trove of golden treasure ever seen in Egypt.</p> <p>At the start of the twentieth century, Theodore Davis was the most famous archaeologist in the world. His career turned tomb-robbing and treasure-hunting into a science. Using six of Davis’s most important discoveriesーfrom the female Pharaoh Hatshepsut’s sarcophagus to the exquisite s<em>habti</em> statuettes looted from the Egyptian Museum not too long agoーas a lens around which to focus his American rags-to-riches tale, author John M. Adams chronicles the rise of a poor country preacher’s son. Through corruption and fraud, Davis amassed tremendous wealth in Gilded Age New York and then atoned for his ruthless career by inventing new standards for systematic excavation in the field of archaeology. He found a record eighteen tombs in the Valley and, breaking with custom, gave all the spoils of his discoveries to museums. A confederate of Boss Tweed, friend of Teddy Roosevelt, and rival of J. P. Morgan, the colorful “American Lord Carnarvon” shared his Newport mansion with his Rembrandts, his wife, <em>and</em> his mistress. The only reason history has forgotten Davis to a large extent is probably the fact that he stopped just short of King Tutankhamen’s tomb, the discovery of which propelled Howard Carter (Davis’s erstwhile employee) to worldwide fame just a few short years later.</p> <p>Drawing on rare and never-before-published archival material, <em>The Millionaire and the Mummies</em>, the first biography of Theodore Davis ever written, rehabilitates a tarnished image through a thrilling tale of crime and adventure, filled with larger-than-life characters, unimaginable treasures, and exotic settings.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。
