This edition continues to be the reference of choice for Eagle crewmembers, Coast Guard Academy cadets and officer candidates, and tall ship sailors throughout the world.

Order and Ardor

Order and Ardor

Eric C. Smith; Thomas S. Kidd

University of South Carolina Press
2018
sidottu
The first book-length study of the vital role Regular Baptists played in creating the modern Southern Baptist denomination.The origins of the Southern Baptist Convention, the world’s largest Protestant denomination, is most often traced back to the colorful, revivalist Separate Baptist movement that rose out of the Great Awakening in the mid-1700s. During that same period the American South was likewise home to the often-overlooked Regular Baptists, who also experienced a remarkable revitalization and growth. Regular Baptists combined a concern for orderly doctrine and church life with the ardor of George Whitefield’s evangelical awakening. In Order and Ardor, Eric C. Smith examines the vital role of Regular Baptists through the life of Oliver Hart, pastor of First Baptist Church in Charleston, South Carolina, a prominent patriot during the American Revolution, and one of the most important pioneers of American Baptists and American evangelicalism.In this first book-length study of Hart’s life and ministry, Smith reframes Regular Baptists as belonging to an influential revival movement that contributed significantly to creating the modern Southern Baptist denomination, challenging the widely held perception that they resisted the Great Awakening. During Hart’s thirty-year service as the pastor of First Baptist Church, the Regular Baptists incorporated evangelical and revivalist values into their existing doctrine. Hart encouraged cooperative missions and education across the South, founding the Charleston Baptist Association in 1751 and collaborating with leaders of other denominations to spread evangelical revivalism.Order and Ardor analyzes the most intense, personal experience of revival in Hart’s ministry—an awakening among the youths of his own congregation in 1754 through the emergence of a vibrant thirst for religious guidance and a concern for their own souls. This experience was a testimony to Hart’s revival piety—the push for evangelical Calvinism. It reinforced his evangelical activism, hallmarks of the Great Awakening that appear prominently in Hart’s diaries, letters, sermon manuscripts, and other remaining documents.Extensively researched and written with clarity, Order and Ardor offers an enlightened view of eighteenth-century Regular Baptists. Smith contextualizes Hart’s life and development as a man of faith, revealing the patterns and priorities of his personal spirituality and pastoral ministry that identify him as a critically important evangelical revivalist leader in the colonial South.

Ordinary Lives

Ordinary Lives

Eric C. Nystrom; Rebecca A.R. Edwards

UNIVERSITY OF MASSACHUSETTS PRESS
2024
nidottu
The collective social history of deaf people in America has yet to be written. While scholars have focused their attention on residential schools for the deaf, leaders in the deaf community, and prominent graduates of these institutions, the lives of “ordinary” deaf individuals have been largely overlooked. Employing the methods of social history, such as the use of digital history techniques and often-ignored sources like census records, Eric C. Nystrom and R. A. R. Edwards recover the lived experiences of everyday deaf people in late nineteenth century America. Ordinary Lives captures the stories of deaf women and men, both Black and white, describing their family lives, networks of support, educational experiences, and successes and hardships. In this pioneering “deaf social history,” Edwards and Nystrom reconstruct the biographies of a wider range of deaf individuals to tell a richer, more nuanced, and more inclusive history of the larger American deaf community.

Bases to Bleachers

Bases to Bleachers

Eric C Gray

Tell Me Your Stories
2019
pokkari
One day during an afternoon at the ball park, author Eric Gray asked his wife, daughter, and friend to identify their favorite game that they had been to. Little did he know, that simple question would soon take on a life of its own. As the question made its way to family members, friends, friends of friends, strangers and beyond, it gave way to a surprising collection of incredibly diverse stories and perspectives. Thus, Bases to Bleachers was born. Much more than your average baseball book, the many special and unique stories shared with readers here, whether they're about watching or playing, either at the Major League level or Little League, represent a wide gamut of experiences. Some entail meeting the stars or attending famous games--and some offered are personal, intimate moments involving family connections and the importance of baseball in people's lives. Unlike most baseball books, this is not a biography, or a discussion of a team, or analysis of a season. Baseball here is a setting in which both astounding feats and some of the most beautifully touching moments in peoples' lives have happened. Whether it's the first game, falling in love at the park, or even a beloved baseball glove that survived World War II, these stories are about more than just baseball. They reflect the joys, triumphs, and disappointments of the human condition, and often illustrate what's truly important in life--those things we hold most dear in our hearts.

God Guided Purposes: The Journey Into Fulfilling Your Purpose

God Guided Purposes: The Journey Into Fulfilling Your Purpose

Eric C. Bingham Dmin

Xulon Press
2023
nidottu
The God-ordained plan for the life of a follower of Jesus Christ is not the fulfillment of one singular purpose, but rather the fulfillment of the purposes that present themselves throughout the Christian journey. Jesus Christ did not save us from sin simply for us to be saved; He saved us so that we might live a life of righteousness in full obedience to all that He has commanded. Jesus Christ Himself said that He came to do the will of Him that sent Him (John 6:38). As followers of Jesus Christ fulfill the will of God throughout their Christian journey, the plans pre-ordained for them as His children will come to fruition. God Guided Purposes: The Journey into Fulfilling Your Purpose written by Eric C. Bingham is an inspiring book which provides an in-depth look at the purposes fulfilled throughout the life of Philip, who became known as "the evangelist." Dr. Bingham hermeneutically examines the purposes fulfilled in the life of Philip as a demonstration of how those same purposes may be fulfilled in all who proclaim to be followers of Christ. Eric C. Bingham was raised on the southeast side of Houston, Texas, where he currently resides. After surrendering his life to Jesus Christ, he became an avid student of the Bible. This led to him becoming the overseer of multiple Bible study groups and the acceptance of his call into the gospel ministry under the late Rev. Dr. Calvin J. Abraham at the Bella Vista Missionary Baptist Church. His love for biblical studies also led to the obtainment of a Master of Arts in Biblical Counseling, Master of Divinity in Biblical and Theological Studies, and a Doctorate of Ministry in Pastoral Ministries, all from Trinity College of the Bible and Theological Seminary in Evansville, Indiana.

U-Boat Commander Oskar Kusch

U-Boat Commander Oskar Kusch

Eric C Rust

Naval Institute Press
2020
sidottu
To his enlisted men on U-154, Lieutenant Oskar Kusch was the ideal skipper--bright, experienced, successful, caring, tolerably eccentric--and a popular captain who always brought his boat home safely when so many others vanished without a trace. To most of his officers Kusch came across as someone very different--a Nazi-hating intellectual with an artistic bent given to lengthy criticisms of the regime, its leaders and its propaganda, a suspected coward and potential traitor unfit for command. Early in 1944, after his second patrol under Kusch, his executive officer, a reservist with a doctorate in law and member of the Nazi party, denounced him on charges of sedition and cowardice.A hastily arranged court-martial cleared Kusch of the cowardice accusation but sentenced him to death on purely ideological grounds for "undermining the fighting spirit" of his boat, even though the prosecutor had only recommended a ten-year jail sentence. Abandoned by all but his closest friends and relatives, coldly sacrificed by Grand Admiral Karl Dönitz, unwilling to plead for mercy, and to the end tormented by a naval legal bureaucracy acting in collusion with the brown regime, Oskar Kusch was executed in May 1944. This study, the first scholarly work on Kusch in English, traces his career and ordeal from his upbringing in Berlin to his tragic death and beyond, including the fifty-year struggle to rehabilitate his name and restore his honor in a postwar Germany long loath to confront the darker dimensions of its past. The passing of the wartime generation and the emergence of a new school of historians dedicated to critical research and inspired historiography have finally combined to rectify our picture of the Kriegsmarine and to appreciate the sacrifice of men like Oskar Kusch.

Eric C. Anderson

Createspace Independent Publishing Platform
2018

It was never about the donuts. Daddy Daughter Donut Day is a celebration of the relationship daddies have with their daughters. Being Daddy is tough. Both of you will cry, laugh and walk away angry. That's normal. The most important thing for daddies to do is NEVER give up on their daughers. Girls need Daddy in their life. They don't realize it early on, and they may take their Daddy for granted. However, one day they will realize the important role Daddy played in their life. Daddy Daughter Donut Day started as a lazy way for me to give my girls breakfast, but it became much more to me and them. It has become a way for us to talk about school, boys (ugh ) and their goals in life. We didn't realize it when we first started, but it was never about the donuts. Eric C. Anderson

Judging Regulators

Judging Regulators

Eric C. Ip

Edward Elgar Publishing Ltd
2020
sidottu
Drawing insights from economics and political science, Judging Regulators explains why the administrative law of the US and the UK has radically diverged from each other on questions of law, fact, and discretion. This book proposes an original interdisciplinary theory that integrates the concept of veto-gates into a strategic model of judicial review of administrative action. It argues that long-term changes in the number of effective veto-gates in the US and the UK are the key to understanding the antithesis that emerged between their administrative jurisprudence. It then forecasts the future of Anglo-American administrative law in light of recent destabilizing political developments, such as attempts by the US Congress to abolish Chevron deference and the UK Supreme Court's interventionist decision in R (on the application of Miller) v. The Prime Minister. A crucial overview of the history and future of administrative law, this book is critical reading for scholars and students of public law and comparative law, particularly those focusing on comparative administrative law in common law contexts. Its theoretical insights will also be useful for political scientists and economists interested in judicial politics and regulation.

Sushi and sashimi are by now global sensations and have become perhaps the best-known of Japanese foods, but they are also the most widely misunderstood. Oishii: The History of Sushi reveals that sushi began as a fermented food with a sour taste, used as a means to preserve fish. This book, the first history of sushi in English, traces sushi’s development from China to Japan and then internationally, and its evolution from street food to high-class cuisine. Included are historical and original recipes that display the diversity of sushi and how to prepare it. An expert on Japanese food history, Eric C. Rath has written a must-read for understanding sushi’s past and how it became one of the world’s greatest cuisines.

Sake, Japan’s iconic rice-based alcoholic drink, has been central to Japanese culture for over 1,300 years. Traditionally made with rice, water and koji mould, it was consumed in early brewpubs and was vital to samurai rituals and festivals. Sake’s story includes homebrewers like clan matriarchs, ancient princes and modern political activists who defied laws to keep homebrewing alive. Temples refined sake-making techniques, laying the foundation for a thriving industry that became a major economic force for shoguns and the modern state. Kanpai is the first history of sake in English, exploring its evolution from homebrew to flavoured varieties, its cultural significance and global rise, including its growing popularity and production in North America and Europe. The book also shows how sake has shaped Japanese food, society and traditions.
