Smugglers, Bootleggers, and Scofflaws Prohibition and New York City【電子書籍】[ Ellen NicKenzie Lawson ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>Uses previously unstudied Coast Guard records for New York City and environs to examine the development of Rum Row and smuggling in New York City during Prohibition.</strong></p> <p>With the passage of the Eighteenth Amendment, "drying up" New York City promised to be the greatest triumph of the proponents of Prohibition. Instead, the city remained the nation's greatest liquor market. <em>Smugglers, Bootleggers, and Scofflaws</em> focuses on liquor smuggling to tell the story of Prohibition in New York City. Using previously unstudied Coast Guard records from 1920 to 1933 for New York City and environs, Ellen NicKenzie Lawson examines the development of Rum Row and smuggling via the coasts of Long Island, the Long Island Sound, the Jersey shore, and along the Hudson and East Rivers. Lawson demonstrates how smuggling syndicates on the Lower East Side, the West Side, and Little Italy contributed to the emergence of the Broadway Mob. She also explores New York City's scofflaw population-patrons of thirty thousand speakeasies and five hundred nightclubs-as well as how politicians Fiorello La Guardia, James "Jimmy" Walker, Nicholas Murray Butler, Pauline Morton Sabin, and Al Smith articulated their views on Prohibition to the nation. Lawson argues that in their assertion of the freedom to drink alcohol for enjoyment, New York's smugglers, bootleggers, and scofflaws belong in the American tradition of defending liberty. The result was the historically unprecedented step of repeal of a constitutional amendment with passage of the Twenty-first Amendment in 1933.</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。 2,812円

Disputed Territories and International Criminal Law Israeli Settlements and the International Criminal Court【電子書籍】[ Simon McKenzie ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>It has been over 50 years since the beginning of the Israeli occupation of the Palestinian Territories. It is estimated that there are over 600,000 Israeli settlers living in the West Bank and East Jerusalem, and they are supported, protected, and maintained by the Israeli state. This book discusses whether international criminal law could apply to those responsible for allowing and promoting this growth, and examines what this application would reveal about the operation of international criminal law. It provides a comprehensive analysis of how the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court could apply to the settlements in the West Bank through a close examination of the potential operation of two relevant Statute crimes: first, the war crime of transfer of population; and second, the war crime of unlawful appropriation of property. It also addresses the threshold question of whether the law of occupation applies to the West Bank, and how the principles of individual criminal responsibility might operate in this context. It explores the relevance and coherence of the legal arguments relied on by Israel in defence of the legality of the settlements and considers how these arguments might apply in the context of the Rome Statute. The work also has wider aims, raising questions about the Rome Statute’s capacity to meet its aim of establishing a coherent and legally effective system of international criminal justice.</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。 9,285円

Androgynous Objects String Bags and Gender in Central New Guinea【電子書籍】[ Maureen A. MacKenzie ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><em>Androgynous Objects</em> explores the way meaning is encoded in material culture by focusing on the androgynous symbolism of the looped string bag, or bilum, of the Telefol people of Central New Guinea. The web of meanings 'woven' into the bag is shown to extend beyond women's lives and bodies. It is open to manipulation and reformation in a variety of contexts and is used by both Telefol women and men to explore, and so explain the complexities and ambiguities inherent in their social life.</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。 11,440円

Salads and Beyond: Delicious Salads for Every Occasion!【電子書籍】[ Alexis McKenzie ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>When we hear the word “salad,” we automatically think of something green and leafy with a few extra tidbits on top and drizzled with a dressing of some sort. But, salads are much more than that; they come in all flavors, with a variety of ingredients and for any meal of the day.</p> <p>Salads are considered one of the most versatile dishes to ever grace a table. The recipes you will find in this Salads Report prove the wide-range of uses and nutritional variances. It can be said that there is a salad for every occasion, and this report provides that diversity.</p> <p>Try a salad alone or as a side-dish to an already scrumptious meal. Serve one at your next potluck dinner and listen to the raves of the guests. You can even offer a salad as a dessert.</p> <p>Surprised? Don’t be. We’ve collected thirty-two of our favorites here on these pages and divided them into categories to help you select the perfect one to prepare.</p> <p>The word “salad” comes from ancient times when the Romans and Greeks first adopted the culinary process of mixing green, leafy vegetables with other ingredients and covering it with dressing. “Salad” originates from the Latin word “sal,” which means “salt.” From that base, “salata,” meaning “salted things,” became the name. Over the centuries, the salad has acquired many different names, but they all mean the same thing - a collection of ingredients, usually served raw or with little cooking, offered with a flavored dressing of some sort.</p> <p>There are many definitions around the world for what can be considered a salad or how a salad is used as part of a meal. Conventional thought is that a salad is made with an assortment of ingredients tossed together or layered, served wet or dry, warm, chilled or at room temperature. For this most part, this description does define a salad, but in today’s health-conscious world, the meaning of “salad” has broadened. Ingredients are more varied and better geared toward nutrition; recipes have become more inclusive of new ingredients and the salad is often considered a meal by itself. The salad is no longer just a prelude to a meal.</p> <p>Nutritionist concur that there are four important reasons for us to eat salads. They are:</p> <p> For the fiber. Our bodies do not digest fiber, but it is still very useful to a healthy diet because it lowers cholesterol, cleans the digestive tract and acts as an appetite suppressant to help us eat less and lose weight.<br /> For the fruits and vegetables. For years, nutritionists have lauded the benefits of including more fruits and vegetables in our diets. Not only are the instrumental in helping to ward off many diseases, fruits and vegetables contain powerful antioxidants that protect our bodies from the damage caused by free radicals (harmful molecules).<br /> For fewer calories and more satisfaction. Eating a low-calorie salad at the beginning of a meal enhances satiety (feeling full), which in turn reduces the number of calories a person might eat. Having a higher-calorie salad as a main course renders the same outcome.<br /> For the smart fats. Monounsaturated fats are good fats which are generally found in dressings and many vegetables. When dressings include healthy oils, such as olive, these fats help the body to absorb more nutrients from the vegetables and fruits in the salad.</p> <p>Over and above these four reasons to eat salads, they are easy to prepare, very diverse and offer many alternatives for side dishes and entrees. Salads, in many ways, can be considered a “perfect food.”</p> <p>Pick up your copy today...

The Imjin and Kapyong Battles Korea, 1951【電子書籍】[ S.P. MacKenzie ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>An "excellent history" of a massive Communist offensive and the brigades that resisted it ( <em>H-War</em>).</strong></p> <p>The sacrifice of the British regiment known as the "Glorious Glosters" in defense of the Imjin River line and the hilltop fights of Australian and Canadian battalions in the Kapyong Valley have achieved great renown. Using official and unofficial source material ranging from personal interviews to war diaries, this in-depth study, the first of its kind, seeks to disentangle the mythology surrounding both battles and explain why events unfolded as they did. Based on thorough familiarity with all available sources, many not previously utilized, it sheds new light on fighting "the forgotten war."</p> <p>"In Korea, on the night of 22nd April 1951, communist forces unleashed what remains, to this day, their greatest offensive since Zhukov's storm on Berlin. In the desperate fighting that followed, the key flanks of free world forces were held by one British and one Commonwealth brigade. The former took on a Chinese army; the latter, a Chinese division. Six decades later, an American historian has dismantled the barriers between Australian, British, Canadian, and New Zealand accounts of those whirlwind days to compose the only comparative analysis of the tragedy on the Imjin and the stand at Kapyong."ーAndrew Salmon, <em>author of Scorched Earth, Black Snow: Britain and Australia in the Korean War, 1950</em></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。 1,760円

A Very Canadian Coup The Rise and Demise of Prime Minister Mackenzie Bowell, 1894?1896【電子書籍】[ Ted Glenn ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>A fresh take on the Manitoba schools question and the Conservative Coup that toppled Canada’s fifth prime minister.</strong></p> <p>When Mackenzie Bowell became Canada’s fifth prime minister in December 1894, everyone ー including Bowell ー expected the job would involve nothing more than keeping the wheels on the Conservative wagon until a spring election.</p> <p>Plans for a quiet caretakership were dashed in January 1895 when the courts ruled that the Manitoba government had violated Roman Catholics’ constitutional rights by abolishing the provincial separate school system. Catholics in Quebec demanded that Bowell force Manitoba to restore the schools, while Ontario Protestants warned him to keep his hands off.</p> <p>Backed into a corner, Bowell tried three times to negotiate a compromise with the Manitoba government over the course of 1895, but to no avail. By January 1896, seven of Bowell’s cabinet ministers had had enough. Convinced that Bowell had tarnished the Conservative brand, the caballers forced the prime minister to resign and make way for a new leader, who they believed could revive party fortunes in time for the coming electionーthe old Warhorse of Cumberland, Sir Charles Tupper.</p> <p>Ultimately, the coup didn’t matter. Tupper and his conspirators pleaded their case in Parliament and on the hustings, but nothing could stand in the way of Wilfrid Laurier and his Liberals’ historic rise to power in the June 1896 election.</p> <p><em>A Very Canadian Coup</em> brings fresh sources and new perspectives to bear on the life and times of Canada’s fifth prime minister and his Sixth Ministry.</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。 1,326円

Indian Myth and Legend (Illustrated)【電子書籍】[ Donald A. Mackenzie ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>This volume deals with the myths and legends of India, which survive to us in the rich and abundant storehouse of Sanskrit literature, and with the rise and growth of Brahmanism, Buddhism, Jainism, &c. The reader is introduced to the various sacred works of the Hindus, including the ancient invocatory hymns of the four Vedas, the later speculative and expository “Forest Books” in which “the Absolute is grasped and proclaimed”, and those great epic poems the Rámáyana, which is three times longer than the Iliad, and the Máhábharata, which is four times longer than the Rámáyana. In no other country have the national poets given fuller and finer expression to the beliefs and ideals and traditions of a people, or achieved as a result wider and more enduring fame. At the present day over two hundred million Hindus are familiar in varying degrees with the legendary themes and traditional beliefs which the ancient forest sages and poets of India invested with much beautiful symbolism, and used as mediums for speculative thought and profound spiritual teachings. The sacred books of India are to the Hindus what the Bible is to Christians. Those who read them, or hear them read, are believed to be assured of prosperity in this world and of salvation in the next. To students of history, of ethnology, and of comparative religion they present features of peculiar interest, for they contain an elaborate sociology of the ancient Aryo-Indians, their political organizations, their codes of laws, their high ethical code, and above all their conceptions of God, the soul, and the Universe. Some knowledge of them is necessary for those who desire to approach with sympathy the investigation of the religious beliefs of our Hindu fellow men and to understand their outlook upon life and the 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。 119円

Sounds of Survival Polish Music and the Holocaust【電子書籍】[ J. Mackenzie Pierce ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><em>Sounds of Survival</em> tells a story of unexpected musical continuity across some of the twentieth century's most cataclysmic events. It examines an integrated Polish and Polish Jewish musical community as its members contended with antisemitism in the 1930s, attempted to survive the Nazi occupation, and established a renewed musical culture amid the ashes of World War II and the Holocaust. Reconstructing these musicians' lives from the 1920s into the 1950s, J. Mackenzie Pierce argues that despite nearly unimaginable violence, many Polish musicians treated the war as a time of reinvention and cultural preservation. Their faith that music was a source of cultural continuity, however, also marginalized experiences of wartime loss, especially those of Jewish victims and survivors of the Holocaust. <em>Sounds of Survival</em> not only reveals that the Holocaust was a central event within modern Polish musical culture; it also shows why its musical aftermath has been difficult to hear.</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。 9,162円

Myths and Legends of Northern Europe【電子書籍】[ Donald A. Mackenzie ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>In the following pages our readers are afforded a comprehensive survey of the divine and heroic literature of Northern Europe. The drama of Norse myth has been reconstructed, so far as possible, in continuous narrative form, with the inclusion of the old Svipdag myth, which exercised so marked an influence on Middle Age romance. We have grouped together the various adventurous journeys made by heroes to Hela, so that our readers may be familiarized with our ancestors' conceptions of the Other World. The prose renderings of heroic narratives include the Beowulf epic, the Balder-Hother romance, the Hamlet legend, the saga of the Volsungs, and the less familiar Dietrich legends, in which the deeds of the primitive Thor are attached to the memory of the Gothic Emperor of Rome.</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。 602円

The Early Life and Adventures of Sylvia Scarlett【電子書籍】[ Compton MacKenzie ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Prelude at six o’clock on the morning of Ash Wednesday in the year 1847, the Honorable Charles Cunningham sat sipping his coffee in the restaurant of the Vendanges de Bourgogne. He was somewhat fatigued by the exertions that as “lion” of the moment he had felt bound to make, exertions that had included a display of English eccentricity and had culminated in a cotillion at a noble house in the Faubourg St.-Germain, the daughter of which had been assigned to him by Parisian gossip as his future wife. Marriage, however, did not present itself to his contemplation as an urgent duty; and he sipped his coffee, reassured by the example of his brother Saxby, who, with the responsibility of a family succession, remained a bachelor. In any case, the notion of marrying a French girl was preposterous; he was not to be flattered into an unsuitable alliance by compliments upon his French. Certainly he spoke French uncommonly well, devilishly well for an Englishman, he told himself; and he stroked his whiskers in complacent meditation. Charles Cunningham had arrived at the Vendanges de Bourgogne to watch that rowdy climax of Carnival, the descente de la Courtille. And now through the raw air they were coming down from Belleville, all sorts of revelers in masks and motley and rags. The noise of tin trumpets and toy drums, of catcalls and cocoricots, of laughter and cheers and whistling, came nearer. Presently the road outside was thronged for the aristocrats of the Faubourg St.-Germain to alight from their carriages and mix with the mob. This was the traditional climax of Carnival for Parisian society: every year they drove here on Ash Wednesday morning to get themselves banged on the head by bladders, to be spurted with cheap scent and pelted with sugar-plums, and to retaliate by flinging down hot louis for the painful enrichment of the masses. The noise was for a time deafening; but gradually the cold light of morning and the melancholy Lenten bells cast a gloom upon the crowd, which passed on toward the boulevards, diminishing in sound and size at every street corner. The tall, fair Englishman let himself be carried along by the exodus, thinking idly what excitable folk foreigners were, but conscious, nevertheless, of a warmth of intimacy that was not at all disagreeable, the kind of intimacy that is bestowed on a man by taking a pack of friendly dogs for a country walk. Suddenly he was aware of a small hand upon his sleeve, a small hand that lay there like a white butterfly; and, looking down, he saw a poke-bonnet garlanded with yellow rosebuds. The poke-bonnet was all he could see, for the wearer kept her gaze steadily on the road, while with little feet she mimicked his long strides. The ineffable lightness of the arm laid on his own, the joyous mockery of her footsteps, the sense of an exquisite smile beneath the poke-bonnet, and the airy tremor of invitation that fluttered from the golden shawl of Siamese cr?pe about her shoulders tempted him to withdraw from the crowd at the first opportunity. Soon they were in a by-street, whence the clamor of Carnival slowly died away, leaving no sound upon the morning air but their footfalls and the faint whisper of her petticoats where she tripped along beside him. Presently the poke-bonnet was raised; Charles Cunningham beheld his companion’s face, a perfect oval, set with eyes of deepest brown, demurely passionate, eyes that in this empty street were all for him. He had never considered himself a romantic young man; when this encounter had faded to a mere flush upon the dreamy sky of the past, he was always a little scornful of his first remark, and apt to wonder how the deuce he ever came to make it</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。 1,200円
