Slight foxing to end inside covers and edge. Very slight shelf wear to edge of D/J. Price clipped. Professor Schlesinger examines the continuing role of violence in American history, assesses the role and responsibility of ideas and intellectuals in the world of power politics, dissects the origins, rise and decline of the Cold War, and analyzes the collapse of American illusions in Vietnam. He inquires into the lessons we might draw from this tragedy, considers the impact on violence, war and irrational;ity on the young and shows that a society which produces this magnitude of student discontent and disquietude among its youth obviously has some questions to ask itself. The New Left and the New Right exist because the Old Politics has failed to meet the real issues in American society and, in the face of this challenge, the author speculates about the prospects for American politics and particularly about the future of the Presidency. 313 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions, Reference books ,and all types of Academic Literature.).…

Cloth. Condición: Near Fine. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Very Good. First Edition. Hardback. First Edition. The Rise and Fall of King Cotton. Very slight shelf wear to top edge of D/J. In words and pictures the author recaptures the excitement and trepidation of those early days of discovery, when invention followed invention, revolutionising cotton production and changing the lives of millions on three continents. His book paints a vivid picture of the lives of the British textile workers, wrenched from the relative freedom of cottage industry and subjected to the demands of factory and machine, and to life in the urban slums. Across the Atlantic the lot of the cotton picking slaves on the American plantations was no better; chained to their masters for ever. they had no prospect of relase other than death. The Lancashire mill and the Southern plantation were linked not only by economic ties but also in their fight to hold back the new Indian cotton industry, so it is ironic that today when the British cotton trade is in decline and the American industry much reduced, Indian cotton is flourighing. This book tells a fascinating story, enhanced by a wealth of historical illustrations never seen before, of an industry which was to set the pace for the whole process of industrialisation.

Cloth. Condición: Very Good. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Good. First Edition. Hardcover. First Edition scratches to d/j and cover. Pity the Nation. Lebanon at War. Very slight browning to edge of pages through age. Rarely have the horror and tragedy of war been so graphically portrayed as in the author's epic account of the Lebann conflict. The author has personally witnessed the carnage of Beirut for more than a decade but his appalled and sympathetic eye never falters. Fisk's book recounts the details of a terrible war but it also tells a story of betrayal and illusion, of Western blindness and arrogance that has led inevitably to political and military catastrophe. Gunmen and collaborators, bomber pilots, diplomats, guerrillas, feudal politicians, journalists, soldiers and kidnappers move through the pages of this vivid history. Arabs and Israelis, East and West - all fall under Fisk's critical, occasionally humerous and often horrified scrutiny. In a narrative of extraordinary power and energy, Fisk explores how a small and beautiful nation has been torn apart by foreign ambition and internal corruption. It is a book about anarchy and human grief in a country which, as the author says, provides no happy endings and where courage has no reward. This book will rank among the classics of war in our time, both as a historical document and as an eye-witness testament to human savagery. Written by one of Britain's foremost journalists, this remarkable book combines political analysis and war reporting in an unprecedented way. 662 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences.
