By learning how to see, taste, touch, and adapt, readers can find their own way to making truly wonderful bread—from blistering sourdoughs to rich rye pan loaves and more.

Richard Hart's concise and accessible history of the peoples of the
English-speaking West Indies spans five centuries, from the early
days of settlement, through colonisation to the achievement of
political independence. Covering all the larger territories Hart
focuses on the key events, significant political and social
movements and prominent figures in the region's history. He looks
at the slave trade and its overwhelming social and economic legacy
during the last two centuries, and at the growth and structure of
colonial resistance. Hart also considers the impact of colonial
legislation and the effects of constitutional change on non-whites
of the region, and their struggle for enfranchisement and self
determination.
Successful Strategies is a fascinating new study of the key factors
that have contributed to the development and execution of
successful strategies throughout history. With a team of leading
historians, Williamson Murray and Richard Hart Sinnreich examine
how, and to what effect states, individuals and military
organizations have found a solution to complex and seemingly
insoluble strategic problems to reach success. Bringing together
grand, political and military strategy, the book features thirteen
essays which each explores a unique case or aspect of strategy. The
focus ranges from individuals such as Themistocles, Bismarck and
Roosevelt to organizations and bureaucratic responses. Whether
discussing grand strategy in peacetime or that of war or politics,
these case studies are unified by their common goal of identifying
in each case the key factors that contributed to success as well as
providing insights essential to any understanding of the strategic
challenges of the future.
Within a variety of historical contexts, The Shaping of Grand
Strategy addresses the most important tasks states have confronted:
namely, how to protect their citizens against the short-range as
well as long-range dangers their polities confront in the present
and may confront in the future. To be successful, grand strategy
demands that governments and leaders chart a course that involves
more than simply reacting to immediate events. Above all, it
demands they adapt to sudden and major changes in the international
environment, which more often than not involves the outbreak of
great conflicts but at times demands recognition of major economic,
political, or diplomatic changes. This collection of essays
explores the successes as well as failures of great states
attempting to create grand strategies that work and aims at
achieving an understanding of some of the extraordinary
difficulties involved in casting, evolving, and adapting grand
strategy to the realities of the world.
In today's military of rapid technological and strategic change,
obtaining a complete understanding of the present, let alone the
past, is a formidable challenge. Yet the very high rate of change
today makes study of the past more important than ever before. The
Past as Prologue, first published in 2006, explores the usefulness
of the study of history for contemporary military strategists. It
illustrates the great importance of military history while
simultaneously revealing the challenges of applying the past to the
present. Essays from authors of diverse backgrounds - British and
American, civilian and military - come together to present an
overwhelming argument for the necessity of the study of the past by
today's military leaders in spite of these challenges. The essays
of Part I examine the relationship between history and the military
profession. Those in Part II explore specific historical cases that
show the repetitiveness of certain military problems.

Three decades ago—years after most tribes had filed land
claims—the Zuni initiated legal battles related to aboriginal
claims, rights, and use that few experts thought they could win.
Yet by 1991 they had achieved three major victories.In the first
case, the Zuni sued the United States seeking payment for
aboriginal territorial lands taken without adequate compensation.
In the second, also against the United States, the tribe sought
compensation for environmental damages to Zuni trust lands caused
by the U.S. Government and by private industry where the federal
government should have provided protection. And in the third, the
U.S. government sued a private rancher on the Zuni's behalf to
establish an easement protecting an ancient religious trail.
Providing a new overview of these cases and Zuni history, Richard
Hart has gathered together essays written by many of those who
testified for the Zunihistorians, archaeologists, anthropologists,
and scientistas well as commentary from the tribe's lawyers. The
authors simplify the complex nature of the testimony, making it
accessible to a wide audience. They cover such diverse but
significant issues as Spanish law and land grants, tribal
aboriginal title, the Navajo Wars, U.S. territorial policy,
deforestation, erosion, geomorphology, dendrochronology,
environmental history, anthropology, archaeology, education,
folklore, oral history, and religion. Tying together current events
with cultural and legal history, Zuni and the Courts provides not
only expert observations on how and why the Zuni succeeded but
offers insight into how similar cases can be fought and won.
