Monongah The Tragic Story of the 1907 Monongah Mine Disaster【電子書籍】[ DAVITT MCATEER ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞New paperback edition with an introduction by Robert B. Reich＜/p＞＜p＞＜em＞Monongah:＜/em＞＜em＞The Tragic Story of the 1907 Monongah Mine Disaster＜/em＞ documents the events and conditions that led to the worst industrial accident in the history of the United States. This mining accident claimed hundreds of lives on the morning of December 6, 1907 and McAteer, an expert on mine and workplace health and safety, delves deeply into the economic forces and social-political landscape of the mining communities of north central West Virginia to expose the truth behind this tragedy. After nearly thirty years of exhaustive research, McAteer determines that close to 500 men and boysーmany of them immigrantsーlost their lives that day, leaving hundreds of women widowed and more than one thousand children orphaned.＜/p＞＜p＞The tragedy at Monongah led to a greater awareness of industrial working conditions, and ultimately to the Federal Coal Mine Health and Safety Act of 1969, which McAteer helped to enact. This new paperback edition includes an introduction by Robert B. Reich, Chancellor’s Professor of Public Policy at the University of California at Berkeley and Secretary of Labor during the Clinton administration.＜/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。	3,223円

La troisi?me R?publique vient de montrer au monde entier que la France d’aujourd’hui n’a pas d?rog?, qu’elle n’est pas moins f?conde en hommes de talent, et m?me de g?nie. Les mar?chaux Joffre et Foch en sont d’incomparables exemples. Voil? deux noms ー pour ne citer que les plus illustres chefs ー qui, d?s maintenant, ont pris le premier rang dans l’Histoire. Et quelle place admirable ! Ces h?ros ont atteint l’apog?e de la fortune et de la gloire en d?fendant leur patrie menac?e de destruction par l’invasion des barbares, et non en combattant pour opprimer les nations et an?antir les peuples.

Beyond Monongah An Appalachian Story【電子書籍】[ Judith Hoover ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞In the beautiful Appalachian region of America, the majesty of the mountains hides a dark and often deadly world below. It is 1896 when eight-year-old Hershel Martin quits school and begins work as a trapper boyーthe one who sits alone in the dark mine, opening and closing an air directing trap door, or waiting for the coal to rumble down the chute and then raising a trapdoor so the coal can fall into mine cars on the track below.＜/p＞＜p＞As he battles to survive within a brutal industrial culture, Hershel seemingly has no choice but to follow those in his family who have worked the mines before him. Three years later after his mother dies unexpectedly, Hershel must deal with his fear of failure at the mines, taunting from other boys, and loving feelings for a girl he is not sure can reciprocate. As he grows into a man and eventually marries, Hershel has no idea everything is about to change in 1907 when a disaster strikes the mine, leaving him grieving for his lost friends and longing to help those who have suffered unimaginable losses.＜/p＞＜p＞In this epic historical tale, the struggles and triumphs of an Appalachian miner and his family are brought to life as they strive to survive poverty and the danger that lurks underground.＜/p＞＜p＞“… Hoover … writes with great authority and a keen eye for the telling details …”＜/p＞＜p＞ーLee Martin, author of The Bright Forever＜/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。	644円
La Monongah?la【電子書籍】[ EDMOND ROUSSEAU ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞L’angelus du soir venait de sonner ? la cath?drale de la bonne ville de Qu?bec ; un beau soleil de mai r?jouissait la nature ; aucun nuage ne souillait le ciel ?tincelant. Une brise l?g?re rafra?chissait l’air et caressait mollement les arbres s?culaires qui entouraient alors la petite ?glise des R?collets.＜/p＞＜p＞Cependant, ? peine les derniers appels ? la pri?re du soir s’?taient-ils r?percut?s dans le lointain, que la cloche se mit ? tinter de nouveau. De sa voix gr?le, elle semblait jeter aux ?chos des alentours un supr?me sanglot.＜/p＞＜p＞Par les rues circulaient les citadins endimanch?s, marchant d’un pas tranquille et recueilli, dans lequel on ne reconnaissait plus les vives allures de l’activit? ordinaire, tandis que les rares boutiquiers de l’?poque se pr?cipitaient sur le pas de leur porte pour voir d?filer la foule.＜/p＞＜p＞? quel spectacle couraient donc ces dignes habitants d’une ville encore ? son berceau ? Quelle catastrophe les arrachait ainsi ? leurs occupations ? Quelle perte pouvait donc, comme un voile de deuil, r?pandre sur toute la ville ce souffle de tristesse ?＜/p＞＜p＞Jean-Marie Mercier, taillandier, devisant sur sa porte avec Mathurine Dumas, la merci?re du coin, va nous l’apprendre.＜/p＞＜p＞ー L’enterrement du saint se fait-il pour s?r demain, ma comm?re ? disait Jean-Marie.＜/p＞＜p＞ー Pour s?r et certain, mon comp?re, r?pliquait Mathurine, que m?me le bedeau de la cath?drale qui est venu ce tant?t chercher ma derni?re aune de cr?pe, m’a dit que la procession se mettrait en marche juste ? sept heures demain matin.＜/p＞＜p＞ー Est-ce vrai que le corps va ?tre port? dans les quatre ?glises de la Haute-Ville ?＜/p＞＜p＞ー Qui a pu vous dire cette nouvelle ? voisin.

Lost Steel Plants of the Monongahela River Valley【電子書籍】[ Robert S. Dorsett ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞Journey through the complicated economic and environmental history of the steel industry in The Mon. Perfect for fans of the history of American industrialization. Pittsburgh's Monongahela River is named after the Lenape Indian word Menaonkihela, meaning where banks cave and erode. The name is fitting: for over a century, these riverbanks were lined with steel plants and railroads that have now caved and eroded away. By the 1880s, Carnegie Steel was the world's largest manufacturer of iron, steel rails, and coke. However, in the 1970s, cheap foreign steel flooded the market. Following the 1981-1982 recession, the plants laid off 153,000 workers. The year 1985 saw the beginning of demolition; by 1990, seven of nine major steel plants had shut down. Duquesne, Homestead, Jones & Laughlin, and Eliza Furnace are gone; only the Edgar Thomson plant remains as a producer of steel. The industry could be said to have built and nearly destroyed the region both economically and environmentally. While these steel plants are lost today, the legacy of their workers is not forgotten.＜/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。	1,878円
The Monongahela An American Rivers book【電子書籍】[ Richard Bissell ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞If anyone had told me I’d be entranced by a book about coal boats moving thirty million tons of coal down the Monongahela River during the 1940’s, well, I would have thought you’d lost your coal stones. I guffawed my way through the first chapter and was pinned to the pages from thereon in. Richard Bissell has artfully intertwined his experiences as a pilot on the Coal Queen with historical facts and anecdotes about the boats and men who made the Monongahela River in West Virginia into one of America’s greatest workhorses. “In order to have a river in your blood, unforgettably and forever. . . . You've got to eat it, sleep it, hate it, and breathe it until you've got river in your shoe soles and in your pants pockets.” Fill up your pockets and read on, reader.＜/p＞＜p＞The reader will be hooked from the first page as the author launches into describing riverboat life, early settlement of the region, the dust and sweat of coal mining, almost everything you’d ever want to know about steamboats, industrialization, the terrifying steam boiler, and an unforgettable description of Pittsburg’s shoreline that surrounds the reader with the smoke and noise of Pittsburg’s factories and steel mills at night with the varied architectural landscape of the river banks by day.＜/p＞＜p＞“That's the way it always was on the river, and the way it always will be, until the Monongahela and the Youghiogheny and the Tygart and the West Branch run dry, and the last steamboat whistle has echoed back off the hills, filling the valleys with that mournful music that haunts you wherever you go.” Thank you, Mr. Bissell, for a wonderful book. I now I, too, have a little bit of river in my blood.＜/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。	691円

March to Disaster: Major General Edward Braddock and the Monongahela Campaign - Fort Duquesne, George Washington, Indian Attacks on American Colonies, Anglo-American Troops【電子書籍】[ Progressive Management ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞Professionally converted for accurate flowing-text e-book format reproduction, this military study posits that the leadership of Major General Edward Braddock led to the defeat of the force that he recruited, trained, and led against Fort Duquesne in July 1755. This thesis places Braddock into the strategic context of the time, seeks to highlight relevant leadership decisions he made that yield insights for today's combat leaders. The defeat at the Battle of the Monongahela resulted in a torrent of Indian attacks that claimed many civilian lives and reduced colonial trust in Great Britain's ability to defend her colonies. This engagement set the conditions that fostered within the colonists a growing mistrust of Great Britain and her colonial policies.＜br /＞ CHAPTER 1 - CLASH OF TITANS * Introduction * Colonial Policy * Parle with the French - Washington's Journey 1753-54 * The Honors of War * All Politics Are Local * Britain Plans for War * Chapter Summary * CHAPTER 2 - BRADDOCK BUILDS AN ARMY * Introduction * Origins of Braddock's Leadership * Diplomacy: Assemblies and Headmen * Braddock's Anglo-American Troops * Logistics: Pounds and Provisions * Other Means of Supply * Transportation * Developing the Force * Chapter Summary * CHAPTER 3 - A RATIONAL WAY OF WAR * Introduction * The Troops Assemble * Distance, Rate, and Time * Chapter Summary * CHAPTER 4 - MEETING ENGAGEMENT * Introduction * Combat * Ratios and Proportions * The Participants' Accounts * Chapter Summary * CHAPTER 5 - CONCLUSIONS * APPENDIX A - ORDER OF ASSEMBLED ANGLO-AMERICAN TROOPS * Fort Cumberland, Maryland 30 May 1755 * First Brigade * Second Brigade * The Artillery Train＜/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。	742円

Braddock's Defeat The Battle of the Monongahela and the Road to Revolution【電子書籍】[ David L. Preston ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞On July 9, 1755, British regulars and American colonial troops under the command of General Edward Braddock, commander in chief of the British Army in North America, were attacked by French and Native American forces shortly after crossing the Monongahela River and while making their way to besiege Fort Duquesne in the Ohio Valley, a few miles from what is now Pittsburgh. The long line of red-coated troops struggled to maintain cohesion and discipline as Indian warriors quickly outflanked them and used the dense cover of the woods to masterful and lethal effect. Within hours, a powerful British army was routed, its commander mortally wounded, and two-thirds of its forces casualties in one the worst disasters in military history. David Preston's gripping and immersive account of Braddock's Defeat, also known as the Battle of the Monongahela, is the most authoritative ever written. Using untapped sources and collections, Preston offers a reinterpretation of Braddock's Expedition in 1754 and 1755, one that does full justice to its remarkable achievements. Braddock had rapidly advanced his army to the cusp of victory, overcoming uncooperative colonial governments and seemingly insurmountable logistical challenges, while managing to carve a road through the formidable Appalachian Mountains. That road would play a major role in America's expansion westward in the years ahead and stand as one of the expedition's most significant legacies. The causes of Braddock's Defeat are debated to this day. Preston's work challenges the stale portrait of an arrogant European officer who refused to adapt to military and political conditions in the New World and the first to show fully how the French and Indian coalition achieved victory through effective diplomacy, tactics, and leadership. New documents reveal that the French Canadian commander, a seasoned veteran named Captain Beaujeu, planned the attack on the British column with great skill, and that his Native allies were more disciplined than the British regulars on the field. ＜em＞Braddock's Defeat＜/em＞ establishes beyond question its profoundly pivotal nature for Indian, French Canadian, and British peoples in the eighteenth century. The disaster altered the balance of power in America, and escalated the fighting into a global conflict known as the Seven Years' War. Those who were there, including George Washington, Thomas Gage, Horatio Gates, Charles Lee, and Daniel Morgan, never forgot its lessons, and brought them to bear when they fought again-whether as enemies or allies-two decades hence. The campaign had awakened many British Americans to their provincial status in the empire, spawning ideas of American identity and anticipating the social and political divisions that would erupt in the American Revolution.＜/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。	1,150円
Circular Villages of the Monongahela Tradition【電子書籍】[ Bernard K. Means ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞Between A.D. 1000 and 1635, the inhabitants of southwestern Pennsylvania and portions of adjacent statesーknown to archaeologists as the Monongahela Culture or Traditionーbegan to reside regularly in ring-shaped village settlements. These circular settlements consisted of dwellings around a central plaza. A cross-cultural and cross-temporal review of archaeological, ethnohistorical, and ethnographic cases demonstrates that this settlement form appeared repeatedly and independently worldwide, including throughout portions of the Eastern Woodlands, among the Plains Indians, and in Central and South America.＜/p＞＜p＞Specific archaeological cases are drawn from Somerset County, Pennsylvania, that has the largest number of completely excavated Monongahela villages. Most of these villages, excavated in the 1930s as federal relief projects, were recently dated. Full analysis of the extensive excavations reveals not only the geometric architectural patterning of the villages, but enables an analysis of the social groupings, population estimates, and economic status of residents who inhabited the circular villages. Circular patterning can be revealed at less fully excavated archaeological sites.

Preston ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞On July 9, 1755, British regulars and American colonial troops under the command of General Edward Braddock, commander in chief of the British Army in North America, were attacked by French and Native American forces shortly after crossing the Monongahela River and while making their way to besiege Fort Duquesne in the Ohio Valley, a few miles from what is now Pittsburgh. The long line of red-coated troops struggled to maintain cohesion and discipline as Indian warriors quickly outflanked them and used the dense cover of the woods to masterful and lethal effect. Within hours, a powerful British army was routed, its commander mortally wounded, and two-thirds of its forces casualties in one the worst disasters in military history. David Preston's gripping and immersive account of Braddock's Defeat, also known as the Battle of the Monongahela, is the most authoritative ever written. Using untapped sources and collections, Preston offers a reinterpretation of Braddock's Expedition in 1754 and 1755, one that does full justice to its remarkable achievements. Braddock had rapidly advanced his army to the cusp of victory, overcoming uncooperative colonial governments and seemingly insurmountable logistical challenges, while managing to carve a road through the formidable Appalachian Mountains. That road would play a major role in America's expansion westward in the years ahead and stand as one of the expedition's most significant legacies. The causes of Braddock's Defeat are debated to this day. Preston's work challenges the stale portrait of an arrogant European officer who refused to adapt to military and political conditions in the New World and the first to show fully how the French and Indian coalition achieved victory through effective diplomacy, tactics, and leadership. New documents reveal that the French Canadian commander, a seasoned veteran named Captain Beaujeu, planned the attack on the British column with great skill, and that his Native allies were more disciplined than the British regulars on the field. ＜em＞Braddock's Defeat＜/em＞ establishes beyond question its profoundly pivotal nature for Indian, French Canadian, and British peoples in the eighteenth century. The disaster altered the balance of power in America, and escalated the fighting into a global conflict known as the Seven Years' War. Those who were there, including George Washington, Thomas Gage, Horatio Gates, Charles Lee, and Daniel Morgan, never forgot its lessons, and brought them to bear when they fought again-whether as enemies or allies-two decades hence. The campaign had awakened many British Americans to their provincial status in the empire, spawning ideas of American identity and anticipating the social and political divisions that would erupt in the American Revolution.＜/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。	1,150円

Braddock's Road Mapping the British Expedition from Alexandria to the Monongahela【電子書籍】[ Norman L. Baker ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞In 1755, Major General Edward Braddock and two army regiments set out from Alexandria with the objective of capturing Fort Duquesne, near present-day Pittsburgh. To transport their sizable train of artillery and wagons, they first had to build a road across the rugged Appalachian Mountains. It was almost 289 treacherous miles from Alexandria, Virginia, by way of Fort Cumberland in Maryland and on to the French fort; the road they built was one of the most impressive military engineering accomplishments of the eighteenth century. Historian Norman L. Baker chronicles the construction of the road and creates the definitive mapping of those sections once thought lost. Join Baker as he charts the history of Braddock's Road until the ultimate catastrophic collision with the combined French and Indian forces.＜/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。	1,878円
