War brings out the best and the worst in humanity-and from these times arise some of the most compelling human stories. Kentucky Raider is the account of one such time. Commodore Perry "CP" Snell is a Confederate cavalryman during the Civil War, serving with the 2nd Kentucky Cavalry regiment known as John Hunt Morgan's Guerrilla Band-Morgan's Raiders for short. This group of soldiers conducts the war's longest, most northerly invasion of Union territory, and on their last raid capture Union General Edward Henry Hobson at Cynthiana, Kentucky. Snell keeps General Hobson's order book as a memento, and it has remained unpublished for 150 years. Now, this order book provides new insight into General Hobson's strategies to stop the rebel raiders. The story begins with Snell's indictment for conspiracy and follows his entire Civil War experience. Wrought with violence, passion, and vanished Yankee gold, Snell's life is one of a common man caught up in an extraordinary time. Complete with detailed military maps, photographs, and legal documents, this fresh look at one of the most controversial men in the Civil War also speaks to our forefathers' fears of a strong, centralized government-fears still held by many US citizens today.

Oliver Hazard Perry

Oliver Hazard Perry

David C. Skaggs

Naval Institute Press
2013
sidottu
Hailed for his decisive victory over a Royal Navy squadron on Lake Erie in September 1813 and best known for his after-action report proclamation ‘We have met the enemy and they are ours’, Oliver Hazard Perry was one the early U.S. Navy s most famous heroes. In this modern, scholarly reassessment of the man and his career, Professor David Skaggs emphasizes Perry s place in naval history as an embodiment of the code of honour, an exemplar of combat courage, and a symbol of patriotism to his fellow officers and the American public. It is the first biography of Perry to be published in more than a quarter of a century and the first to offer an even-handed analysis of his career.After completing a thorough examination of primary sources, Skaggs traces Perry s development from a midshipman to commodore where he personified the best in seamanship, calmness in times of stress, and diplomatic skills. But this work is not a hagiographic treatment, for it offers a candid analysis of Perry s character flaws, particularly his short temper and his sometimes ineffective command and control procedures during the battle of Lake Erie. Skaggs also explains how Perry’s short but dramatic naval career epitomized the emerging naval professionalism of the young republic, and he demonstrates how the ‘Hero of Lake Erie’ fits into the most recent scholarship concerning the role of post-revolutionary generation in the development of American national identity. Finally, Skaggs explores in greater detail than anyone before the controversy over the conduct of his Lake Erie second, Jesse Duncan Elliott, that raged on for over a quarter century after Perry s death in 1819.

The Mercies of Perry County

The Mercies of Perry County

Juliet Hinton

Finishing Line Press
2024
sidottu
Until now Perry County has not been included on the literary map of Mississippi. My debut collection of poems changes that atlas. These poems, some historical, other's lyrics, record the topography of my memory of this county where I grew up filled with stern pine trees, fields dense with corn, snakes and blood, cheating husbands and wives, tobacco and hate chewing men, chinaberry trees, catfish, cows pasturing in trees, and mud pies cooked in an old wood stove, and Black souls that are still with me. My poems emerge from a feminine vision found in Southern letters from Eudora Welty, Alice Walker, Flannery O'Connor and Jesmyn Ward. As the trees in the Pine Belt speak with voices you do not always want to hear, these poems give voice to the mercies and miseries. The trees refuse to be silent them. Nor do these poems.

Alliance and Landscape on Perry Mesa in the Fourteenth Century

Alliance and Landscape on Perry Mesa in the Fourteenth Century

University of Utah Press,U.S.
2014
sidottu
About forty miles north of Phoenix, Arizona, Perry Mesa is part of Agua Fria National Monument today, but during the late thirteenth and early fourteenth centuries, this windswept arid landscape became the site of numerous farming communities. This book explores why people moved to Perry Mesa at that time. Analyses of Perry Mesa contrast with those of the iconic large-scale migrations in the prehistoric Southwest such as the Kayenta diaspora and the gathering of the clans at Hopi. Unlike those long-distance movements into occupied regions, the Perry Mesa case is one of relatively localised aggregation on a largely vacant landscape. But, as was discovered with the iconic migrations, ethnogenesis (the creation of new identities) took hold on Perry Mesa, making it an extremely interesting counterpoint to the better-known migrations of the period.Contributors to this volume examine the migration process under two explanatory frameworks: alliance and landscape. These frameworks are used to explore competing hypotheses, positing either a rapid colonization associated with an alliance organised for warfare at a regional scale, or a more protracted migration as this landscape became comparatively more attractive for migrating farmers in the late thirteenth century.As the first major publication on the archaeology of Perry Mesa, this volume contributes to theoretical perspectives on migration and ethnogenesis, the study of warfare in the prehistoric Southwest, the study of intensive agricultural practices in a marginal environment, and the cultural history of a little studied and largely unknown portion of the ancient Southwest. It not only documents the migration but also the ensuing birth of a new ethnic identity that arose from the coalescence of diverse groups atop Perry Mesa.
