Not illustrated. 1920 edition. Excerpt: ... 7th of this year, he was stationed at the third officers' training camp, at Camp Sherman, Ohio, as a private. On June 1, 1918. he was commissioned second-lieutenant, and in August of that year was promoted to captain. A little later he was appointed camp adjutant, and on June 1, 1919, was promoted to major. He was stationed at Trieste, on the allied re-adjustment board, and was mustered out of service October 23, 1919, and received his honorable discharge with the rank of major. He then returned to Cincinnati, where he is now acting as president of the Ex-service Men's Co-operate Association. On June 20, 1918, Major Long was united in marriage with Miss Amelia Herrmann, of Cincinnati, a daughter of Frank and Carrie Herrmann, and they reside at 2207 Rice street, Cincinnati. Horatio L. Buckingham, a farmer of Camp Dennison, Ohio, was born in Symmes township, Hamilton county, Ohio, April 26, 1868, son of Albert G. and Jennie (Doyle) Buckingham, the former of whom was born in the same township as his son, and the latter at Columbus, Ohio. The Buckinghams, as the name implies, are of English origin, and trace their name to an important English county, a dukedom, and Buckingham palace. The name is a place name, having been spelled Buck or Buch-ing-field or ham, meaning "little village." The Buckinghams immigrated to the United States in 1637, and settled in Pennsylvania. They have had their share of able and successful men: governors of states, lawyers and orators, but they have with few exceptions, during the past four generations, devoted themselves to agriculture on the tracts of land purchase by the first members of the family. Enoch Jeffries Buckingham and his brother, Levi, came to Ohio in 1790, and were located for a time at Columbia....

Many British politicians, planters, and doctors attempted to exploit the fertility of Afro-Caribbean women's bodies in order to ensure the economic success of the British Empire during the age of abolition. Abolitionist reformers hoped that a homegrown labor force would end the need for the Atlantic slave trade. By establishing the ubiquity of visions of fertility and subsequent economic growth during this time, The Politics of Reproduction sheds fresh light on the oft-debated question of whether abolitionism was understood by contemporaries as economically beneficial to the plantation colonies. At the same time, Katherine Paugh makes novel assertions about the importance of Britain's Caribbean colonies in the emergence of population as a political problem. The need to manipulate the labor market on Caribbean plantations led to the creation of new governmental strategies for managing sex and childbearing, such as centralized nurseries, discouragement of extended breastfeeding, and financial incentives for childbearing, that have become commonplace in our modern world. While assessing the politics of reproduction in the British Empire and its Caribbean colonies in relationship to major political events such as the Haitian Revolution, the study also focuses in on the island of Barbados. The remarkable story of an enslaved midwife and her family illustrates how plantation management policies designed to promote fertility affected Afro-Caribbean women during the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. The Politics of Reproduction draws on a wide variety of sources, including debates in the British Parliament and the Barbados House of Assembly, the records of Barbadian plantations, tracts about plantation management published by doctors and plantation owners, and missionary records related to the island of Barbados.

Often remembered as the president who died shortly after taking office, William Henry Harrison remains misunderstood by most Americans. Before becoming the ninth president of the United States in 1841, Harrison was instrumental in shaping the early years of westward expansion. Robert M. Owens now explores that era through the lens of Harrison’s career, providing a new synthesis of his role in the political development of Indiana Territory and in shaping Indian policy in the Old Northwest. Owens traces Harrison’s political career as secretary of the Northwest Territory, territorial delegate to Congress, and governor of Indiana Territory, as well as his military leadership and involvement with Indian relations. Thomas Jefferson, who was president during the first decade of the nineteenth century, found in Harrison the ideal agent to carry out his administration’s ruthless campaign to extinguish Indian land titles. More than a study of the man, Mr. Jefferson’s Hammer is a cultural biography of his fellow settlers, telling how this first generation of post-Revolutionary Americans realized their vision of progress and expansionism. It surveys the military, political, and social world of the early Ohio Valley and shows that Harrison’s attitudes and behavior reflected his Virginia background and its eighteenth-century notions as much as his frontier milieu. To this day, we live with the echoes of Harrison’s proclamations, the boundaries set by his treaties, and the ramifications of his actions. Mr. Jefferson’s Hammer offers a much needed reappraisal of Harrison’s impact on the nation’s development and key lessons for understanding American sentiments in the early republic.

This monumental work, covering Kissinger's first four years (1969-1973) as Assistant to the President for National Security Affairs and President Nixon's closest advisor on foreign policy, is one of the most significant books to come out of the Nixon administration. Among the countless moments Kissinger recalls in White House Years are his first meeting with Nixon, his secret trip to China, the first SALT negotiations, the Jordan crisis of 1970, the India-Pakistan war of 1971, and the historic summit meetings in Moscow and Beijing in 1972. He offers insights into the Middle East conflicts, Anwar Sadat's break with the Soviet Union, the election of Salvador Allende in Chile, issues of defense strategy, and relations with Europe and Japan. Other highlights are his relationship with Nixon, brilliant portraits of major foreign leaders, and his views on handling crises and the art of diplomacy. Few men have wielded as much influence on American foreign policy as Henry Kissinger. White House Years, his own record, makes an invaluable and lasting contribution to the history of this crucial time.
