Tillyard Stella: World on Fire / LF

World on Fire

Routledge Histories

The Routledge History of American Science

The remarkable story of one of humankind's most far-reaching, dynamic and brutal experimentsThis superb book begins in 1511 with the shipwreck of two Spanish sailors in Yucatán. Only ten years later an army of European adventurers and indigenous rebels seized the island city of Tenochtitlán, seat of one of the world's great empires. The capture of the future Mexico City marked the collision of two long-separated worlds, radically different in everything from biota to urban planning. Spaniards discovered tomatoes, chocolate, and the most sophisticated city they had ever seen. Mexicans discovered horses, wheels, and lethal germs. Gillingham chronicles the cataclysmic century of disease, brought from afar, that killed a majority of the indigenous population and led to a startling recombination of cultures. The industrial mining of Mexico's silver transformed the wealth and trade of the world. Mexico's independence from Spain went on to bring a calamitous war with the United States, one of the first great social revolutions and a one-party government that, whatever its shortcomings, brought peace for Mexicans throughout many of the global horrors of the twentieth century before the country itself collapsed into violence in the 2000s. A pleasure to read, Mexico: A History uses the latest research to dazzling effect, showing how often Mexico has been a dynamic and vital shaper of world affairs.

Mexico: A History

"1861: The Lost Peace is the story of President Lincoln's far-reaching, difficult, and most courageous decision, a time when the country wrestled with deep moral questions of epic proportions. Through Jay Winick's singular reporting and storytelling, readers will learn about the extraordinary Washington Peace Conference at the Willard Hotel to avert cataclysmic war. They will observe the irascible and farsighted Senator JJ Crittenden, the tireless moderate seeking a middle way to peace. Lincoln himself called Crittenden "a great man" even as Lincoln jousted with him. They'll be inside and among Lincoln's cabinet-the finest in history-which rivaled the executive in its authority, a fact too often forgotten, and they will see a parade of statesmen frenetically grasping for peace rather than the spectacle of the young nation slowly choking in its own blood. A perfect read for history buffs, with timely overtones to our current political climate"--

The Stories That Forged an American Myth

Self-Made

The 1921 Tulsa Race Riot was America's bloodiest civil disturbance of the century. In this book, Alfred L. Brophy draws on his own extensive research into contemporary accounts and court documents to chronicle this devastating riot, showing how and why the rule of law quickly eroded.

Reconstructing the Dreamland Updated Edition

How the country that came to elect Obama could also elect Trump &nbsp; How did Americans come to elect Barack Obama twice—and then elect Donald Trump twice? Those choices capture what Paul Starr calls the American contradiction. &nbsp; The whole truth about America, Starr argues in this new history of the United States since the 1950s, has never been contained in one consistent set of values. Our nation was born in the contradiction between freedom and slavery. Today it is beset by a contradiction between a changing people and an old nation, a nation with entrenched institutions that have empowered those who fear the changes and look to restore an old America of their imagining.&nbsp; &nbsp; Starr tells this history from the dual standpoints of the progressive movements that changed the American people and of the movements reacting to them. Black Americans, he argues, served as a model minority, setting in motion America’s twentieth-century revolutions in gender as well as race and rights. With industry’s decline and the rise of economic inequality, millions of Americans have felt dispossessed and seek to bring the old America back. Trump is their revenge. American Contradiction explains how 1950s America became the almost unrecognizable America of the 2020s.

"If Black women were free, it would mean that everyone else would have to be free." 
-Combahee River Collective Statement 
 
Winner of the 2018 Lambda Literary Award for LGBTQ Nonfiction 
 
The Combahee River Collective, a path-breaking group of radical black feminists, was one of the most important organizations to develop out of the antiracist and women's liberation movements of the 1960s and 70s. In this collection of essays and interviews edited by activist-scholar Keeanga-Yamahtta Taylor, founding members of the organization and contemporary activists reflect on the legacy of its contributions to Black feminism and its impact on today's struggles.
