Their lawyer, Everett Raymond, infatuated with one of the sisters, is determined that the official investigator, detective Ebenezer Gryce, widens the inquiry to less obvious suspects.</p> <p>The Leavenworth Case, the first detective novel written by a woman, immortalised its author Anna Katharine Green as ‘The Mother of Detective Fiction’.

<p>I had been a junior partner in the firm of Veeley, Carr & Raymond, attorneys and counsellors at law, for about a year, when one morning, in the temporary absence of both Mr. Veeley and Mr. Carr, there came into our office a young man whose whole appearance was so indicative of haste and agitation that I involuntarily rose at his approach and impetuously inquired: “What is the matter? You have no bad news to tell, I hope.” “I have come to see Mr. Veeley; is he in?” “No,” I replied; “he was unexpectedly called away this morning to Washington; cannot be home before to-morrow; but if you will make your business known to meーー” “To you, sir?” he repeated, turning a very cold but steady eye on mine; then, seeming to be satisfied with his scrutiny, continued, “There is no reason why I shouldn’t; my business is no secret. I came to inform him that Mr. Leavenworth is dead.” “Mr. Leavenworth!” I exclaimed, falling back a step. Mr. Leavenworth was an old client of our firm, to say nothing of his being the particular friend of Mr. Veeley. “Yes, murdered; shot through the head by some unknown person while sitting at his library table.” “Shot! murdered!” I could scarcely believe my ears.</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。 484円

Fort Leavenworth: The People Behind the Names: People Who Have Left Their Mark on the Dowager Queen of Frontier Forts ? Fort History, Geography, Buildings, Stained Glass Windows, Streets and Trails【電子書籍】[ Progressive Management ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>This excellent report has been professionally converted for accurate flowing-text e-book format reproduction. This is the story of the people and organizations behind the names used at Fort Leavenworth, Kansas. The scores of men and women of distinction associated with the United States Armed Forces who have served at this "Dowager Queen of Frontier Posts." The people behind the place-names are an interesting lot, ranging from a teenage Girl Scout to crusty old generals. Although some of those commemorated are well known iconic figures such as Grant, Eisenhower, Patton, and Marshall, most are little known today regardless of their considerable renown among their contemporaries. As with so much of Army life, there is a regulation dealing with naming things on military installations. Army Regulation (AR) 1-33, The Army Memorial Program, details the program, lists responsibilities, identifies what qualifies as a memorial, and describes the procedure to get it done. The intent of the memorial program is to do lasting honor and to pay tribute to deceased military and civilian personnel with records of outstanding and honorable service. It recognizes the contribution to national defense of persons whose careers or actions were important to the locality where they are memorialized. Fort Leavenworth policy implements AR 1-33. Command Policy #49-08, Memorials and Dedications, directs the establishment of a committee to review requests for memorialization.</p> <p>Most of those honored have a local connection, although, ironically, on Fort Leavenworth the individual with the most things named for him, Ulysses S. Grant, never served at the post in uniform and only visited once while he was running for president in 1868. He profited from a distinguished career during the Civil War and by his election to two terms as the 18th president of the United States. Nothing succeeds like success. Conversely, nothing fails like failure. Scores of officers with southern roots served at Fort Leaven-worth in its formative years but resigned from the Army to fight for the Confederacy during the Civil War.</p> <p>Some place-names are well known while others are not. Everyone sees the street signs but may not know whom they commemorate. A few streets are named but do not have a have a sign indicating they have a name. Some locations are always identified by their name, such as the Lewis & Clark Center, the home of the Command and General Staff College. Others are better known by their building numbers, even though they have names. The headquarters of the Center for Army Lessons Learned is usually called building #50, seldom Rucker Hall. Still others are identified by function. Barth Hall, building #44, is most often called MCTP Headquarters for the resident Mission Command Training Program. And finally, some buildings are identified by a recognizable attribute such as Grant Hall, Building #52C, which is known as the "clock tower" building.</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。 743円

Perceptions of Airpower and Implications for the Leavenworth Schools: Interwar Student Papers (Art of War Paper) ? History and Effectiveness of Command and General Staff School During the 1930s【電子書籍】[ Progressive Management ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>This excellent report has been professionally converted for accurate flowing-text e-book format reproduction. It evaluates interwar period US Army officer perceptions of aviation as expressed in student papers written as part of the Command and General Staff School during the 1930s. The evaluation compares student perceptions to period airpower theory and doctrine and applies that study to weigh-in on the broader debate over the effectiveness of Fort Leavenworth during the interwar period. America's School for War and Command Culture by Dr. Peter Schifferle and Dr. Jorg Muth, respectively, highlight the competing sides of that debate. Schifferle argues Leavenworth was a key component to the US victory in World War II while Muth argues the US victory occurred in spite of Leavenworth teaching faulty doctrine and stifling critical thinking.<br /> This study concludes that the students generally agreed with period doctrine while also rejecting many of the ideas of airpower theorists. However, application of the study to the question of Leavenworth effectiveness yields mixed results. The papers indicate the doctrine, which formed the basis of Leavenworth instruction, was appropriate for the time. Nonetheless, they also suggest Leavenworth's willingness to part with critical thinking development (in the form of writing) in favor of more classroom instruction - instruction of debatable effectiveness.</p> <p>As the United States Army slowly ramps down from more than a decade of continuous combat operations in Iraq, Afghanistan, and elsewhere, there are significant ongoing debates over the future of the Army. In an environment characterized by increasingly constrained resources, topics such as the size of the Army, the balance of capabilities between the active and reserve components, equipment procurement, and personnel costs predictably appear to dominate the discussion. That the Army must reduce in size because of these as other factors is, at this point, a foregone conclusion. However, the challenge is ensuring that those Army activities that remain through a post-war drawdown provide the best return on investment possible. In light of this challenge, it should not be a surprise that the topic of the best way to conduct Professional Military Education (PME) is a point of debate within the broader subject of the future of the US Army.</p> <p>Given that the education and training of its personnel heavily influence the Army's ability to perform in future conflicts, the effectiveness of a portion of that system, the Command and General Staff School (CGSS) at Fort Leavenworth, has recently been the subject of increasing debate. In a blog at Foreign Policy online, Dr. Nicholas Murray leveled significant criticism against the conduct of the resident course at the CGSS. He noted that an emphasis on time spent in class, rather than quality of instruction and time for reflection, has become a focus of the CGSS curriculum. An earlier article by the same author stated the problem more bluntly, that "the current focus of PME does not adequately prepare our officers to think critically." Along similar lines, Jorg Muth argued that the current PME structure, including Leavenworth, fails to adequately educate Army officers to be effective staff officers. A recent article written by the former commander of the US Army Training and Doctrine Command, GEN Cone, who stated Leavenworth is not what it should be - an intellectual "Harvard on the Missouri," supports these assessments. However, what is particularly interesting in the debate over the effectiveness of Leavenworth in the Army's officer education system is not that it is happening, but that such debate is not new. Indeed, a number of works exist which explore the effectiveness of the instruction at Fort Leavenworth during the interwar period, points of which may be applicable to the current debate.</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。 743円

Summoned at Midnight A Story of Race and the Last Military Executions at Fort Leavenworth【電子書籍】[ Richard A. Serrano ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>Uncovers the hidden world of the military legal system and the intimate history of racism that pervaded the armed forces long after integration.</strong></p> <p>Richard A. Serrano reveals how racial discrimination in the US military criminal justice system determined whose lives mattered and deserved a second chance and whose did not. Between 1955 and 1961, a group of white and black condemned soldiers lived together on death row at Fort Leavenworth military prison. Although convicted of equally heinous crimes, all the white soldiers were eventually paroled and returned to their families, spared by high-ranking army officers, the military courts, sympathetic doctors, highly trained attorneys, the White House staff, or President Eisenhower himself.</p> <p>During the same 6-year period, only black soldiers were hanged. Some were cognitively challenged, others addicted to substances or mentally unbalancedーthe same mitigating circumstances that had won white soldiers their death row reprieves. These men lacked the benefits of political connections, expert lawyers, or public support; only their mothers begged fruitlessly for their lives to be spared. By 1960, John Bennett was the youngest black inmate at Fort Leavenworth. His lost battle for clemency was fought between 2 vastly different presidential administrationsーEisenhower’s and Kennedy’sーas the civil rights movement was gaining steam.</p> <p>Drawing on interviews, trial transcripts, and rarely published archival material, Serrano brings to life the characters in this lost history: from desperate mothers and disheartened appeals lawyers, to the prison doctors, psychiatrists, and chaplains. He shines a light on the scandalous legal maneuvering that reached the doors of the White House and the disparity in capital punishment that was cut so strictly along racial lines.</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。 1,709円

The Imagined Arctic in Speculative Fiction【電子書籍】[ Maria Lindgren Leavenworth ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><em>The Imagined Arctic in Speculative Fiction</em> explores the ways in which the Arctic is imagined and what function it is made to serve in a selection of speculative fictions: non-mimetic works that start from the implied question "What if?" Spanning slightly more than two centuries of speculative fiction, from the starting point in Mary Shelley’s 1818 <em>Frankenstein</em> to contemporary works that engage with the vast ramifications of anthropogenic climate change, analyses demonstrate how Arctic discourses are supported or subverted and how new Arctics are added to the textual tradition. To illuminate wider lines of inquiry informing the way the world is envisioned, humanity’s place and function in it, and more-than-human entanglements, analyses focus on the function of the actual Arctic and how this function impacts and is impacted by speculative elements. With effects of climate change training the global eye on the Arctic, and as debates around future northern cultural, economic and environmental sustainability intensify, there is a need for a deepened understanding of the discourses that have constructed and are constructing the Arctic. A careful mapping and serious consideration of both past and contemporary speculative visions thus illuminate the role the Arctic has played and may come to play in a diverse set of practices and fields.</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。 7,343円

I came to</p> <p>inform him that Mr. Leavenworth is dead."</p> <p> </p> <p>"Mr. Leavenworth!" I exclaimed, falling back a step. Mr.</p> <p>Leavenworth was an old client of our firm, to say nothing of his being</p> <p>the particular friend of Mr. Veeley.</p> <p> </p> <p>"Yes, murdered; shot through the head by some unknown person while</p> <p>sitting at his library table."</p> <p> </p> <p>"Shot! murdered!" I could scarcely believe my ears.</p> <p> </p> <p>"How? when?" I gasped.</p> <p> </p> <p>"Last night. At least, so we suppose. He was not found till this</p> <p>morning. I am Mr. Leavenworth's private secretary," he explained,</p> <p>"and live in the family. It was a dreadful shock," he went on,</p> <p>"especially to the ladies."</p> <p> </p> <p>"Dreadful!" I repeated. "Mr. Veeley will be overwhelmed by it."</p> <p> </p> <p>"They are all alone," he continued in a low businesslike way I</p> <p>afterwards found to be inseparable from the man; "the Misses</p> <p>Leavenworth, I mean--Mr. Leavenworth's nieces; and as an inquest is to</p> <p>be held there to-day it is deemed proper for them to have some one</p> <p>present capable of advising them. As Mr. Veeley was their uncle's best</p> <p>friend, they naturally sent me for him; but he being absent I am at a</p> <p>loss what to do or where to go."</p> <p> </p> <p>"I am a stranger to the ladies," was my hesitating reply, "but if</p> <p>I can be of any assistance to them, my respect for their uncle is</p> <p>such----"</p> <p> </p> <p>The expression of the secretary's eye stopped me. Without seeming to</p> <p>wander from my face, its pupil had suddenly dilated till it appeared to</p> <p>embrace my whole person with its scope.</p> <p> </p> <p>"I don't know," he finally remarked, a slight frown, testifying to</p> <p>the fact that he was not altogether pleased with the turn affairs were</p> <p>taking. "Perhaps it would be best. The ladies must not be left</p> <p>alone----"</p> <p> </p> <p>"Say no more; I will go." And, sitting down, I despatched a</p> <p>hurried message to Mr. Veeley, after which, and the few other</p> <p>preparations necessary, I accompanied the secretary to the street.</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。 350円

But why will she not defend herself? Raymond, falling more and more in love with her, is at a lost.
