Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.

This insightful look into the long-ignored treatment of slaves by the Jesuit order sheds new light on The Society of Jesus during the 18th and early 19th centuries.
During the Cold War, the West tended to paint communism with a
broad brush, defining it simply as all that was evil about the
Eastern Bloc and presuming it was more or less the same everywhere.
Yet culture and geography contributed to different forms of
communist society in different places. Drawing on interviews with
nearly 100 former citizens, the author describes day-to-day life in
the Czechoslovak Socialist Republic. Their recollections paint a
more complex picture of the life on the other side of the Iron
Curtain, from the beginning of Soviet control in 1960 through the
1990 formation of the democratic Czech Republic.
From the colonial period through the early nineteenth century,
Father Thomas J. Murphy writes a compelling chronology and in depth
analysis of Jesuit slaveholding in the state of Maryland.
William Tecumseh Sherman is known primarily for having cut a
swath of destruction through Georgia and the Carolinas during the
Civil War. From the fame of these years, however, he moved into an
eighteen-year phase of "insuring the tranquility" of the vast
region of the American West. As commander of the Division of the
Missouri from 1865 to 1869 and General of the Army of the United
States under President Grant from 1869 to 1883, Sherman facilitated
expansion and settlement in the West while suppressing the raids of
the Cheyenne, Arapahoe, Kiowa, Comanche, and Crow Indians. Robert
G. Athearn explores Sherman's and his army's roles in the settling
of the West, especially within the broad framework of railroad
construction, Indian policy, political infighting, and popular
opinion.
