The text is characterized by its rich descriptive prose and keen historical insights, which elegantly weave together the landscapes, spiritual significance, and cultural nuances that define the pilgrimage. Cartwright's literary style combines narrative storytelling with scholarly rigor, making it accessible yet substantial, firmly situating the work within the rich tradition of British travel literature while also contributing a distinctly personal lens through which to view this historical journey.

 Townmania Marcus Winchester and the Making of Memphis【電子書籍】[ R. Scott Williams ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞＜em＞Townmania: Marcus Winchester and the Making of Memphis＜/em＞ tells the forgotten story of the man who transformed a frontier settlement on a Mississippi River bluff into the thriving city of Memphis. This first full-length biography of Memphis's founding father explores ambition, race, politics, and identity in early Tennessee, uncovering a chapter of Southern history that shaped the nation.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Marcus Winchester (1796-1856) devoted his life to transforming the small settlement on the fourth Chickasaw bluff into a thriving center of transportation, commerce, and industry that became Memphis. Sent there at Andrew Jackson's request while still barely out of his teens, Winchester went on to become the city's first real estate agent, mayor, store owner, banker, postmaster, and one-man chamber of commerce. His leadership helped establish Memphis as the westernmost outpost of American expansion along the Mississippi River and laid the foundation for its later emergence as one of the South's most important commercial cities.＜/p＞ ＜p＞He championed critical infrastructure projects that connected the frontier town to the wider world: a stagecoach line, a regular ferry crossing, major roads stretching east and west, and the first railroad tracks laid in the Midsouth. It was also Winchester who led the creation of Memphis's first bank and first newspaper.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Despite his accomplishments, Winchester and his family endured relentless attacks because his wife, Amarante Loiselle, was a free woman of color at a time when the debate over slavery had become increasingly polarized-and deadly. Forced to move his wife and children outside the very community he had built, Winchester experienced firsthand the peril of challenging entrenched social boundaries.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Winchester's story intersects with many of the most significant events and figures of the antebellum South. Captured as a boy by the British during the War of 1812, he later stood with Andrew Jackson during treaty negotiations with the Chickasaw, championed David Crockett's congressional campaigns, assisted Frances Wright in building Nashoba, her utopian commune on the Wolf River, and watched with sadness as Native Americans were ferried across the Mississippi River on the Trail of Tears. He befriended James K. Polk and served as John Overton's agent in Memphis as Overton fought for the young city's rightful place in state politics.＜/p＞ ＜p＞This meticulously researched biography unearths the fascinating story of Marcus Winchester while bringing to life the struggles and triumphs of some of Memphis's earliest residents. As Americans across the young nation grappled with what sort of country the United States would become, these early settlers transformed the untamed frontier on a Mississippi River bluff into a thriving metropolis.＜/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。 | 1,408円 |

 A Crack in the Edge of the World America and the Great California Earthquake of 1906【電子書籍】[ Simon Winchester ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞The international bestselling author of ＜strong＞The Professor and the Madman＜/strong＞ and ＜strong＞Krakatoa＜/strong＞ vividly brings to life the 1906San Francisco Earthquake that leveled a city symbolic of America's relentless western expansion. Simon Winchester has also fashioned an enthralling and informative informative look at the tumultuous subterranean world that produces earthquakes, the planet's most sudden and destructive force.＜/p＞ ＜p＞In the early morning hours of April 18, 1906, San Francisco and a string of towns to its north-northwest and the south-southeast were overcome by an enormous shaking that was compounded by the violent shocks of an earthquake, registering 8.25 on the Richter scale. The quake resulted from a rupture in a part of the San Andreas fault, which lies underneath the earth's surface along the northern coast of California. Lasting little more than a minute, the earthquake wrecked 490 blocks, toppled a total of 25,000 buildings, broke open gas mains, cut off electric power lines throughout the Bay area, and effectively destroyed the gold rush capital that had stood there for a half century.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Perhaps more significant than the tremors and rumbling, which affected a swatch of California more than 200 miles long, were the fires that took over the city for three days, leaving chaos and horror in its wake. The human tragedy included the deaths of upwards of 700 people, with more than 250,000 left homeless. It was perhaps the worst natural disaster in the history of the United States.＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜strong＞Simon Winchester＜/strong＞ brings his inimitable storytelling abilities -- as well as his unique understanding of geology -- to this extraordinary event, exploring not only what happened in northern California in 1906 but what we have learned since about the geological underpinnings that caused the earthquake in the first place. But his achievement is even greater: he positions the quake's significance along the earth's geological timeline and shows the effect it had on the rest of twentieth-century California and American history.＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜strong＞A Crack in the Edge of the World＜/strong＞ is the definitive account of the San Francisco earthquake. It is also a fascinating exploration of a legendary event that changed the way we look at the planet on which we live.＜/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。 | 2,190円 |

In the course of a three-year, 100,000 mile journey--from the chill of the Antarctic to the blue seas of the Caribbean, from the South of Spain and the tip of China to the utterly remote specks in the middle of gale-swept oceans--he discovered such romance and depravity, opulence and despair tht he was inspired to write what may be the last contemporary account of the British empire. Written with Winchester's captivating style and breadth, here are conversations and anecdotes, myths and political analysis, scenery and history--a poignant and colorful record of the lingering beat of what was once the heart of the civilized world. | 3,397円 |
 Three Days in the Shenandoah Stonewall Jackson at Front Royal and Winchester【電子書籍】[ Gary Ecelbarger ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞The battles of Front Royal and Winchester are the stuff of Civil War legend. Stonewall Jackson swept away an isolated Union division under the command of Nathaniel Banks and made his presence in the northern Shenandoah Valley so frightful a prospect that it triggered an overreaction from President Lincoln, yielding huge benefits for the Confederacy. Gary Ecelbarger has undertaken a comprehensive reassessment of those battles to show their influence on both war strategy and the continuation of the conflict. Three Days in the Shenandoah answers questions that have perplexed historians for generations.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Bypassing long-overused sources that have shrouded the Valley Campaign in myth, Ecelbarger draws instead on newly uncovered primary sourcesーincluding soldiers’ accounts and officers’ reportsーto refute much of the anecdotal lore that for too long was regarded as fact. He narrates those suspenseful days of combat from the perspective of battlefield participants and high commanders to weave a compelling story of strategy and tactics. And he offers new conclusions regarding Lincoln’s military meddling as commander in chief, grants Jefferson Davis more credit for the campaign than previous accounts have given him, and commends Union soldiers for their fighting.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Written with the flair of a seasoned military historian and enlivened with maps and illustrations, ＜em＞Three Days in the Shenandoah＜/em＞ reinterprets this important episode. Ecelbarger sets a new standard for envisioning the Shenandoah Campaign that will both fascinate Civil War buffs and engage historians.＜/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。 | 2,912円 |
 Broken Arrow How the U.S. Navy Lost a Nuclear Bomb【電子書籍】[ Jim Winchester ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞＜strong＞This "＜/strong＞ ＜strong＞unnerving expos?" of a lost American nuclear bomb "is a valuable contribution to the history of the navy, the cold war, and nuclear weapons" (＜/strong＞ ＜strong＞Booklist＜/strong＞ ＜strong＞).＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞On December 5th, 1965, the USS ＜em＞Ticonderoga＜/em＞ was on its way from Vietnam to Japan, practicing nuclear combat procedures along the way. A young pilot from Ohio strapped into an A-4 Skyhawk bomber for a routine simulated mission. But after mishandling the maneuver, the plane and its pilot sunk to the bottom of the South China sea, along with a live B43 one-megaton thermonuclear bomb. A cover-up mission began as rumors of sabotage began to circulate.＜/p＞ ＜p＞The incident, known as a 'Broken Arrow', was kept under wraps for twenty-five years.

 The Winchester Powerhouse【電子書籍】[ Anthony Paice ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞Presenting portraits of the Winchester bishops down to the Norman Conquest, ＜em＞The Winchester Power-House＜/em＞ is the first volume of a study covering the lives of some one hundred holders of the high ecclesiastical office. Characterised overwhelmingly by benevolence, the pre-Conquest prelates were at the forefront of the reconversion of southern Britain to Christianity.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Beyond their spiritual role, however, they also helped to make Winchester ? rather than London or Canterbury ? the powerhouse of the expanding kingdom of Wessex and eventually of all England; they helped ensure that it remained the most prized and prestigious diocese in England down to the Reformation.＜/p＞ ＜p＞As key counsellors to the Wessex kings, as reformers, even warriors on occasion, these men exerted a strong influence on the introduction of successive Saxon legal codes and judicial process. Indeed, during the development of an embryonic royal chancery in the early 11th century, the bishop was invariably the choice for chancellor, the king’s chief minister. It is no accident that the last bishop, Stigand, was both bishop of Winchester and archbishop of Canterbury.＜/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。 | 1,192円 |
