The Pittsburgh Division had its earliest beginnings in 1837, but what would be known as the main line was not completed until 1871. At its height, the Pittsburgh Division consisted of five distinct main lines and 14 branch lines, and the division had trackage rights over the Western Maryland and Pittsburgh & Lake Erie Railroads. Images of Modern America: The Baltimore & Ohio Railroad s Pittsburgh Division looks at five of these lines: the B&O Main Line from Cumberland to Pittsburgh; the Pittsburgh and Western; the Somerset and Cambria; the Fairmont, Morgantown and Pittsburgh; and the Wheeling, Pittsburgh and Baltimore."

The Queen of Portland's Roses: The Life of Georgiana Burton Pittock
Georgiana Burton Pittock was a remarkable woman whose good deeds are legendary. Charitable organizations she founded, to ease the life of Oregon pioneers, still exist today, more than one hundred years later.But her other contribution may be even more widely appreciated. Without doubt, she's The Queen of Portland's Roses. Georgiana gave Portland its city identity-without her, there would be no City of Roses, no Rose Festival and no citywide fascination with anything "rose." She introduced in Oregon the idea of rose competitions and even held rose "festivals" right in her own yard. Georgiana Pittock was a true pioneer, having crossed the Oregon Trail as a child. In Portland, she met and later married Henry Pittock, owner of The Oregonian newspaper. They raised a family and built their dream home high on a hill overlooking downtown Portland. Now known as Pittock Mansion, it's Oregon's beloved house museum and a star locale for Hollywood movies.

Pitt's 'Gallant Conqueror'

Pitt's 'Gallant Conqueror'

James Dreaper

I.B. Tauris

The capture of Manila from the Spanish in October 1762 was an impressive victory, masterminded by a truly extraordinary leader. It was a battle that took British forces to the edge of the known world and caused William Pitt the Elder to refer to the General that commanded it, William Draper, as 'Manila's gallant conqueror'. "Pitt's Gallant Conqueror" tells the story of a brilliant general who also became a figure of controversy after becoming the victim of the political satirist 'Junius'. His greatest triumph - gaining a toehold in Manila and thus the Philippines - was marred as he fought long and hard for his 'just rewards' from the Manila ransom agreement and attracted savage satire. From his early years as a Guards officer in London, Draper had become a familiar figure in the social life of the capital where like so many of his peers he was in chronic financial straits from his gambling habits. A popular figure, he became a Fellow of King's College, Cambridge as well as a writer, sportsman, friend of poets and family man. His network of friends resulted in an incidental and lasting legacy from his involvement with drafting the laws of cricket. Using previously unpublished sources, James Dreaper has produced a groundbreaking new assessment of this unusual military figure, and a fascinating portrait of the times in which he served. "Pitt's Gallant Conqueror" illuminates the turbulent years of the mid eighteenth-century when there was still opportunity for military entrepreneurs to stamp their own mark on events.
August Wilson's Pittsburgh Cycle
Providing a detailed study of American playwright August Wilson (1945-2005), this collection of new essays explores the development of the author's ethos across his twenty-five-year creative career--a process that transformed his life as he retraced the lives of his fellow "Africans in America." While Wilson's narratives of Pittsburgh and Chicago are microcosms of black life in America, they also reflect the psychological trauma of his disconnection with his biological father, his impassioned efforts to discover and reconnect with the blues, with Africa and with poet/activist Amiri Baraka, and his love for the vernacular of Pittsburgh.
