Reproduction of the original: Dred Scott Versus John F. A. Standford by Benjamin C. Howard
John F. Kennedy fick bara vara USA:s president i 1 037 dagar innan han mördades i Dallas den 22 november 1963, men hans status som politisk ikon och mansideal har bestått. Trots att det gått mer än sextio år betraktar många mordet fortfarande som olöst. Hur historien hade sett ut om Kennedy fått leva och valts till en andra mandatperiod får vi aldrig veta. Däremot går det utifrån det enorma källmaterialet att rekonstruera händelseförloppet kring mordet, liksom mördarens väg till brottsplatsen. Konspirationsteorierna kring mordet är många, somliga mer fantasifulla än andra. Finns där någon substans eller handlar det om fria fantasier? Historikern Bengt Liljegren ger här en rafflande skildring av John F. Kennedys sista timmar i livet, jakten på mördaren och det efterspel som följde.

On June 26, 1963, President John F. Kennedy made a speech to the German people in Berlin. He famously said, "Ich bin ein Berliner," which translates to "I am a Berliner" (someone from Berlin). However, future sources, including newspapers, sometimes considered the quote a blunder, as it could be confused for, "I am a jelly doughnut " Inside this volume, readers will learn more about this historic event and the myth that arose from it. They will also explore other myths and facts about Kennedy. Primary sources accompany the text, and a timeline of the life of America's 35th president helps create a well-rounded, enjoyable learning experience.

In the early 1920s, architect John F. Staub, a native of Knoxville, Tennessee, who had studied at MIT and worked in New York, came to the burgeoning city of Houston as an assistant to nationally prominent architect Harrie T. Lindeberg. Staub was charged with administering construction of three houses designed by Lindeberg for members of the city's rapidly emerging elite. He would go on to establish one of the most influential architectural practices in Houston, where he would remain until his death in 1981. Over four decades, Staub designed grand houses in such communities as Shadyside, Broadacres, and, perhaps most notably, River Oaks. His clients included the Hoggs, for whom he created Bayou Bend; the Mastersons, his clients for Rienzi; and members of the Wiess, Cullen, Farish, Welder, Fay, and Elkins families. Although Staub also completed commissions for clients elsewhere in Texas and the United States, it was primarily in Houston that his work and influence took root. This ambitious study of Staub's work by architectural historian Stephen Fox goes beyond a description of Staub's houses. Fox analyzes the roles of space, structure, and decoration in creating, defining, and maintaining social class structures and expectations and shows how Staub was able to incorporate these elements and understandings into the elegant buildings he designed for his clients. In the process, he contributes greatly to a fuller understanding of Houston's emergence as a premier American city. Stunning color images by architectural photographer Richard Cheek, combined with Fox's well-grounded and expansive thesis, create a volume that will enchant, inform, and entertain. Students and aficionados of American domestic architecture of the 1920s, '30s, '40s, and '50s will appreciate the wealth of material, and the volume's contribution to architectural history and the sociology of architecture will commend itself to readers across the nation.

2020 Audie Winner - History/BiographyAs the fiftieth anniversary of the first lunar landing approaches, the award winning historian and perennial New York Times bestselling author takes a fresh look at the space program, President John F. Kennedy's inspiring challenge, and America's race to the moon."We choose to go to the Moon in this decade and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard; because that goal will serve to organize and measure the best of our energies and skills, because that challenge is one that we are willing to accept, one we are unwilling to postpone, and one we intend to win."--President John F. KennedyOn May 25, 1961, JFK made an astonishing announcement: his goal of putting a man on the moon by the end of the decade. In this engrossing, fast-paced epic, Douglas Brinkley returns to the 1960s to recreate one of the most exciting and ambitious achievements in the history of humankind. American Moonshot brings together the extraordinary political, cultural, and scientific factors that fueled the birth and development of NASA and the Mercury, Gemini and Apollo projects, which shot the United States to victory in the space race against the Soviet Union at the height of the Cold War. Drawing on new primary source material and major interviews with many of the surviving figures who were key to America's success, Brinkley brings this fascinating history to life as never before. American Moonshot is a portrait of the brilliant men and women who made this giant leap possible, the technology that enabled us to propel men beyond earth's orbit to the moon and return them safely, and the geopolitical tensions that spurred Kennedy to commit himself fully to this audacious dream. Brinkley's ensemble cast of New Frontier characters include rocketeer Wernher von Braun, astronaut John Glenn and space booster Lyndon Johnson.A vivid and enthralling chronicle of one of the most thrilling, hopeful, and turbulent eras in the nation's history, American Moonshot is an homage to scientific ingenuity, human curiosity, and the boundless American spirit.
