nidottu
On July 26, 1764, an event occurred on the Pennsylvania frontier so shocking that it has been vividly remembered and retold for over 250 years. Eleven children gathered in a lonely log school house that warm summer morning. By noon they lay weltering in their own blood, scalped and dead or dying. And yet, one of the students, ten year old Archie McCullough, survived. He left no first hand accounts but by drawing on original sources, contemporary accounts and the work of others Mr. McCulloh brings this story to life in a unique way. In the lead chapter the attack is told from Archie's perspective in a full, dramatic narrative. The known facts have been wrapped in imagined thoughts, actions and dialog to present the story as never before told. The book also includes a factual, historical account of the full story and includes a selection of the earliest reports from obscure and long out-of-print sources. The Scalping of Archie McCullough is an invaluable source of information on the Enoch Brown Massacre.

General Lord Rawlinson

General Lord Rawlinson

Rodney Atwood

Bloomsbury Academic

In this biography Rodney Atwood details the life of General Lord Rawlinson of Trent (1864-1925), a distinguished British soldier whose career culminated in decisive victories on the Western Front in 1918 and command of the Indian Army in the early 1920s. He served his soldier’s apprenticeship in the Victorian colonial wars in Burma, the Sudan and South Africa. His career provides a lens through which to examine the British Army in the late-19th and early-20th century. In the South African War (1899-1902) Rawlinson’s ideas aided the defence of Ladysmith, and he distinguished himself leading a mobile column in the guerrilla war. In the First World War he held an important command in most of the British Expeditionary Force’s battles on the Western Front. He bears a heavy part-responsibility for the disastrous first day of the Somme, but later in the battle his successful tactics inflicted heavy losses on the enemy. His Western Front career culminated in a series of victories beginning at Amiens. He commanded the Indian Army between 1920 and 1925 at a time of military and political tension following the 3rd Afghan War and the Amritsar Massacre. He introduced necessary reforms, cut expenditure at a time of postwar retrenchment and began commissioning Indians to replace British officers. He would have taken up the post of CIGS (Chief of the Imperial General Staff), thus being the only British soldier to hold these two top posts. He died, however, four days after his sixty-first birthday. Drawing extensively on archival material including Rawlinson’s own engagingly-written letters and diaries, this thorough examination of his life will be of great interest to those studying British military history, imperial history and the First World War.

This book of poems is a resurrection of the spirits of my maternal elders. The Fingers raised me, molded and shaped me, laid my poetic foundation. I honor that memory with words that paint a portrait of each member of my mother's immediate kin; my grandparents and their 10 children. It is a journey into our past, an important, humanizing history of Black life and family.

People universally worship the Oedipus complex through gods such as Yah, the son of Allah, and Hawah, Allah's wife. When Yah, a snake god, tongues the Burning Bush of Hawah, a tree goddess, their union is symbolized by the menorah. Together, they are called ""Yahweh."" The female child has a similar instinct, visually evident through the Crescent and Star, symbolizing Sin, the bisexual moon god, and Easter, the Superstar (Venus). They are aspects of the sky god Allah, representing a daughter's attachment to her mother-father. The Oedipal force is innate in everyone's unconscious mind. As part of Easter's five political identities, it is the source of all conflict. Yahweh's Deep State aims to rule One World using Cabbala. He plotted the 7-11 Apollo mooning, the 9-11 attacks and the 3-11 Fukushima disasters. Now, he's setting the stage for 5-11-18, when North Korea's Shining-Star satellite takes the blame for an EMP and black out in the US that will lead to Armageddon. If the ego foils it, time renews it.
