Young Workers of the Industrial Age by Sue Wilkes (.ePUB)
š® Young Workers of the Industrial Age by Sue Wilkes (.ePUB) The industrial revolution was forged with the lives of our ancestorsā children. All over Britain, children and young people toiled for hours every day. Their workplaces were pitch-dark mines, fiery furnaces, brightly-lit mills with deadly machines, and mud-filled brickyards. Some workers were pauper apprentices, sent thousands of miles from their homes and indentured until the age of twenty-one. Almost every item in our ancestorsā homes and wardrobes was made by children and youngsters: buttons, glass, carpets, cotton, cutlery, pins, candles, lace, pottery, straw hats, and even matches. In grand houses and ordinary homes, tiny chimney sweeps climbed chimneys choked with soot, and boys and girls worked as domestic servants. On the land, both sexes worked in all weathers. Children worked at home, too ā many helped their parents earn a living. From the early 1800s, men like Robert Owen tried to improve childrenās lives. But reform was held back for decades by wealthy mill-owners, landowners and politicians who believed that profits were more important than people. Sue Wilkes tells the story of the battle for workplace and educational reforms led by Lord Shaftesbury, Richard Oastler, and the indefatigable factory inspectors. But it took many decades to transform societyās attitude towards childhood itself. Young Workers of the Industrial Age takes a fresh look at the childhoods stolen to create Britainās industrial empire. ā»ļø Book's Info: Author Sue Wilkes Size 15.8MB Category Non-Fiction > History File Type ePUB š„ Download Links: https://uploda.sh/rplCMPGda2Ae https://devuploads.com/1hrhgbfitf5f

Midnight Cry: A Shooting on Sand Mountain by Lesa Carnes Shaul (.ePUB)
š® Midnight Cry: A Shooting on Sand Mountain by Lesa Carnes Shaul (.ePUB) Close to midnight on May 17, 1951, four north Alabama lawmen drove to a bootleggerās home to serve an arrest warrant. Before the clock struck twelve, the bootlegger lay dead in front of the house he shared with his wife and eight children, and three of the four officers were also dead. Afterward, a sixteen-year-old boy would face a series of trials that would divide a county and thrust the state of Alabama into the national spotlight. In this good, old-fashioned, true-crime story, Lesa Carnes Shaul draws on court documents, trial transcripts, newspaper articles, and personal interviews to weave together a rollicking and illuminating tale of murder and revenge. Besides the shooting itself and the subsequent trials, the narrative explores the cultural shifts that occurred after World War II in the United States, the Deep South, and the state of Alabama in particular. Immediately after the war, many southern states, still recovering from the lingering effects of the Great Depression, stood poised to advance toward a progressive New South yet struggled with the legacy of race and class inequities, retrograde government policies, and a stubborn resistance to change. Sand Mountain represented a kind of āland that time forgotā during this era, even as nearby cities like Huntsville and Birmingham sought to claim a place on the national stage in technology, industry, business, and medicine. Through her investigation of this murder trial, Shaul reveals the backwoods justice at play in this isolated area of the American South. ā»ļø Book's Info: Author Lesa Carnes Shaul Size 4.9MB Category Non-Fiction > Biographies & Memoirs > True Crime File Type ePUB š„ Download Links: https://uploda.sh/gpdICUNqvK3s https://devuploads.com/jq4gjorshc6o

Harney and Sons How to Read Tea Leaves by Claire Goodchild (.ePUB)
š® Harney and Sons How to Read Tea Leaves by Claire Goodchild (.ePUB) Nestled in the Black River valley with the Tug Hill Plateau to the east and the Adirondack Mountains to the west, Boonville traces its origin to the failure of a grand investment scheme. In the mid-1790s, Gerrit Boon, agent for the Holland Land Company, purchased vast acreage in northern New York, hoping to establish a plantation for the production of maple sugar. When that enterprise collapsed, Boon founded a settlement in the remote wilderness. Adopting a paternalistic stance, he attracted settlers by extending financial assistance to farmers, artisans, and tradesmen. The village soon prospered, and dairy farming became the dominant industry. With the arrival of a canal and railroad in the mid-1800s, Boonville expanded to become the largest town between Watertown and Utica. Around Boonville documents the growth of the village and surrounding area, with special attention to local landmarks and scenery, industry and recreation, prominent leaders, and ordinary citizens. ā»ļø Book's Info: Author Claire Goodchild Size 18MB Category Non-Fiction > Faith, Beliefs & Philosophy File Type ePUB š„ Download Links: https://uploda.sh/C5OjeKktefTG https://devuploads.com/ln4w9dto7hof

No Jews Live Here by John Lorinc (.ePUB)
š® No Jews Live Here by John Lorinc (.ePUB) A stolen sign, āNo Jews Live Here,ā kept John Lorincās Hungarian Jewish family alive during the Holocaust. From pre-war Budapest to post-war Toronto, journalist John Lorinc unspools four generations of his Hungarian Jewish family's journey through the Holocaust, the 1956 Revolution, and finally exodus from a country that can't rid itself of its antisemitic demons. This braided saga centers on the writer's eccentric and defiant grandmother, a consummate survivor who, with her love of flashy jewelry and her vicious tongue, was best appreciated from afar. Lorinc also traces the stories of both his grandfathers and his father, all of whom fell victim, in different ways, to the Nazisā genocidal campaign to rid Europe of Jews. This is a deeply reported but profoundly human telling of a vile part of history, told through Lorincās distinctively astute and compassionate consideration of how cities and cultures work. Set against the complicated and poorly understood background of Hungary's Jewish community, No Jews Live Here is about family stories, and how the narratives of our lives are shaped by our times and historical forces over which we have no control. ā»ļø Book's Info: Author John Lorinc Size 14.2MB Category Non-Fiction > Biographies & Memoirs File Type ePUB š„ Download Links: https://uploda.sh/TRmP503jqETE https://devuploads.com/n425ftseg5tx

The Ten Year War by Jonathan Cohn (.ePUB)
š® The Ten Year War by Jonathan Cohn (.ePUB) Jonathan Cohn's The Ten Year War is the definitive account of the battle over Obamacare, based on interviews with sources who were in the room, from one of the nation's foremost healthcare journalists. The Affordable Care Act, better known as āObamacare,ā was the most sweeping and consequential piece of legislation of the last half century. It has touched nearly every American in one way or another, for better or worse, and become the defining political fight of our time. In The Ten Year War, veteran journalist Jonathan Cohn offers the compelling, authoritative history of how the law came to be, why it looks like it does, and what itās meant for average Americans. Drawn from hundreds of hours of interviews, plus private diaries, emails and memos, The Ten Year War takes readers to Capitol Hill and to town hall meetings, inside the West Wing and, eventually, into Trump Tower, as the nation's most powerful leaders try to reconcile pragmatism and idealism, self-interest and the public good, and ultimately two very different visions for what the country should look like. At the heart of the book is the decades-old argument over whatās wrong with American health care and how to fix it. But the battle over healthcare was always about more than policy. The Ten Year War offers a deeper examination of how our governing institutions, the media and the two parties have evolved, and the dysfunction those changes have left in their wake. ā»ļø Book's Info: Author Jonathan Cohn Size 1.11MB Category Non-Fiction > Educational > Politics & Social Sciences File Type ePUB š„ Download Links: https://uploda.sh/UttwdqPLASgZ https://devuploads.com/sxp7z2sg4li0

Multitudes: How Crowds Made the Modern World by Dan Hancox (.ePUB)
š® Multitudes: How Crowds Made the Modern World by Dan Hancox (.ePUB) In pursuit of the liberating powers of the crowd Despite what politicians, philosophers and the press have long told us, every peaceful crowd is not a violent mob in waiting. Dan Hancox argues it is time to rethink long-held assumptions about crowd behaviour and psychology, as well as the part crowds play in our lives. The story of the modern world is the story of multitudes in action. Crowds are the ultimate force for change: the bringer of conviviality, euphoria, mass culture and democracy. Behind the establishmentās long war against crowds is the work of eccentric proto-fascist Gustave Le Bon. Having witnessed the revolutionary Paris Commune, he declared the crowd barbaric, the enemy of all that was civilized. In the twentieth century, his theory influenced Mussolini, Hitler and Freud alike. It moulded the policing of our communities and the new industry of public relations, shaping our cities and politics. From raucous football matches and raves to rubber-bullet-riddled riots, Dan Hancox takes us into the crowdās pulsating heart to pose the questions that will define our age. Is the madness of crowds real? What did the January 6 insurrection on Capitol Hill share with the Nuremberg rallies? What fresh dangers are posed to free assembly by the surveillance society? And how has a radical new generation of psychologists begun to change everything ā even the policing of protests? ā»ļø Book's Info: Author Dan Hancox Size 0.7MB Category Non-Fiction > Educational File Type ePUB š„ Download Links: https://uploda.sh/PhKR35wH2xdW https://devuploads.com/svvkltf9z3u1

Van Gogh Has a Broken Heart by Russ Ramsey, W. David O. Taylor (.ePUB)
š® Van Gogh Has a Broken Heart by Russ Ramsey, W. David O. Taylor (.ePUB) Beyond a mere introduction to great art, Van Gogh Has a Broken Heart is about loving to learn what art has to teach us about the wonder and struggle of being alive. Did you know that: Vincent van Gogh's attempt to start an artist's colony with Paul Gauguin lasted only nine weeks, ending in his infamous "ear episode"? Pablo Picasso was a prime suspect in the disappearance of the Mona Lisa? Artemisia Gentileschi was tortured with thumbscrews to verify her testimony at her own rapist's trial? Norman Rockwell's critics said his work would never be accepted as "high art"--and he agreed? These stories--and many more--shaped the work these artists left behind. In their art are lessons common to the human experience about the wonder and struggle of being alive: dreams lost, perspectives changed, and humility derived through suffering.?? In Van Gogh Has a Broken Heart, Russ Ramsey digs into these artists' stories for readers who may be new to art, as well as for lifelong students of art history, to mine the transcendent beauty and hard lessons we can take from their masterpieces and their lives. Each story from some of the history's most celebrated artists applies the beauty of the gospel in a way that speaks to the suffering and hope we all face. ā»ļø Book's Info: Author Russ Ramsey, W.

š® What Comes After Rock Bottom? by Tyrone Reid (.ePUB) What Comes After Rock Bottom Life has a way of knocking you down, and for me, it hit harder than I ever thought possible. At my lowest point, I didnāt think there was a way outāI was overwhelmed by trauma, depression, and the weight of feeling like I couldnāt go on. But I found a way to keep going, and this book is my story of how I did it. What Comes After Rock Bottom isnāt a guidebook or a set of instructions. Itās an honest account of my struggles, my mistakes, and the lessons Iāve learned along the way. I share what it was like to grow up carrying trauma I didnāt even understand, to hit breaking point, and to start rebuilding a life I could actually be proud of. This book is for anyone whoās ever felt like giving up. Itās for the parents trying to do better for their kids, the people weighed down by shame, and those who feel like no one else could possibly understand what theyāre going through. I get it. Iāve been there. And Iām here to tell you that thereās hopeāeven when it feels impossible to find. Through my story, I show what itās like to claw your way back to the surface. I talk about the things weāre often too scared to say out loud: shame, grief, self-doubt, and the small, quiet steps it takes to begin healing. This isnāt a perfect story with a happy endingāitās a reminder that rock bottom doesnāt have to be the end. If youāre reading this, I want you to know youāre not alone. Thereās a way forward, even if you canāt see it yet.

Raw Deal by Gil Valle, Brian Whitney (.ePUB)
š® Raw Deal by Gil Valle, Brian Whitney (.ePUB) "When, if ever, does a thought cross the line and become a crime?" RAW DEAL is the untold story of former New York City police officer Gil Valle, who in 2012 became known throughout the world as āThe Cannibal Cop.ā It is part the controversial saga of a man who was imprisoned for āthought crimes,ā and a look into a world of dark sexuality and violence that most readers donāt know exists, except maybe in their nightmares. After Valleās arrest, media coverage exploded in a frenzy of lurid tabloid headlines and stories about the cop charged with planning to kidnap, torture, rape ...and eat ... women, including his own wife. But hereās the fascinating part; there was no such plan in reality. Valle was simply engaging in his own private fantasies, albeit fantasies that are abhorrent and grotesque, and for that he was thrown into prison. Valle faced life in prison for his charges, and served 21 months for nothing more than having online chats about his fantasies. He was finally exonerated of all charges. ā»ļø Book's Info: Author Gil Valle, Brian Whitney Size 638KB Category Non-Fiction > Biographies & Memoirs > True Crime File Type ePUB š„ Download Links: https://uploda.sh/iZY79HFUnhMh https://devuploads.com/w4j3rha45ac3
