These volumes provide an essential comprehensive work of reference
for the annual municipal elections that took place each November in
the 83 County Boroughs of England and Wales between 1919 and 1938.
They also provide an extensive and detailed analysis of municipal
politics in the same period, both in terms of the individual
boroughs and of aggregate patterns of political behaviour. Being
annual, these local election results give the clearest and most
authoritative record of how political opinion changed between
general elections, especially useful for research into the longer
gaps such as 1924-29 and 1935-45, or crisis periods such as
1929-31. They also illuminate the impact of fringe parties such as
the Communist Party and the British Union of Fascists, and also
such questions as the role of women in politics, the significance
of religious and ethnic differentiation and the connection between
occupational and class divisions and party allegiance. Analysis at
the ward level is particularly useful for socio-spatial studies. A
major work of reference, County Borough Elections in England and
Wales, 1919-1938 is indispensable for university libraries and
local and national record offices. Each volume has approximately
700 pages.

This is a reprint of two popular Confederate battlefront spiritual
aides. In the 1980s, the Army Chaplain Corps adopted the credo
'Nurture the living/Care for the wounded/Honor the dead'. It
summarizes more than 200 years of chaplain ministry with soldiers
during war and peace. C. T. Quintard's "Soldier's Pocket Manual of
Devotions" was one Civil War chaplain's expression of the hope and
faith on which the credo is built. In 1861, Chaplain Quintard of
the 1st Tennessee Regiment marched off to care for his soldiers as
they joined the Army of Virginia. His "Soldier's Pocket Manual of
Devotions" was a very popular and widely distributed devotional
manual used by many Confederate soldiers. In his booklet "Balm for
the Weary and Wounded" (1864), Quintard reached back often to the
writers of the 'Oxford Movement', which was his theological
underpinning. In addition to familiar prayers, collects, and hymns
from the "Book of Common Prayer", he adds poems, sermons, and
religious texts of this movement. Quintard believes God's spirit
provides that balm through the teachings and sacraments of the
church that enables the human spirit to prevail. Students of the
Civil War, reenactors, collectors, historians, and theologians will
find these volumes of immeasurable value.
Labor studies scholars and working-class historians have long
worked at the crossroads of academia and activism. The essays in
this collection examine the challenges and opportunities for
engaged scholarship in the United States and abroad. A diverse
roster of contributors discuss how participation in current labor
and social struggles guides their campus and community organizing,
public history initiatives, teaching, mentoring, and other
activities. They also explore the role of research and scholarship
in social change, while acknowledging that intellectual labor
complements but never replaces collective action and movement
building. Contributors: Kristen Anderson, Daniel E. Atkinson, James
R. Barrett, Susan Roth Breitzer, Susan Chandler, Sam Davies, Dennis
Deslippe, Eric Fure-Slocum, Colin Gordon, Michael Innis-Jimenez,
Stephanie Luce, Joseph A. McCartin, John W. McKerley, Matthew M.
Mettler, Stephen Meyer, David Montgomery, Kim E. Nielsen, Peter
Rachleff, Ralph Scharnau, Jennifer Sherer, Shelton Stromquist,
Emily E. LB. Twarog, and John Williams-Searle.
