Lydia Maria Child: A Radical American Life by Lydia Moland (.ePUB)
📮 Lydia Maria Child: A Radical American Life by Lydia Moland (.ePUB) A compelling biography of Lydia Maria Child, one of nineteenth-century America’s most courageous abolitionists. By 1830, Lydia Maria Child had established herself as something almost unheard of in the American nineteenth century: a beloved and self-sufficient female author. Best known today for the immortal poem “Over the River and through the Wood,” Child had become famous at an early age for spunky self-help books and charming children’s stories. But in 1833, Child shocked her readers by publishing the first book-length argument against slavery in the United States—a book so radical in its commitment to abolition that friends abandoned her, patrons ostracized her, and her book sales plummeted. Yet Child soon drew untold numbers to the abolitionist cause, becoming one of the foremost authors and activists of her generation. Lydia Maria Child: A Radical American Life tells the story of what brought Child to this moment and the extraordinary life she lived in response. Through Child’s example, philosopher Lydia Moland asks questions as pressing and personal in our time as they were in Child’s: What does it mean to change your life when the moral future of your country is at stake? When confronted by sanctioned evil and systematic injustice, how should a citizen live? Child’s lifetime of bravery, conviction, humility, and determination provides a wealth of spirited guidance for political engagement today. ♻️ Book's Info: Author Lydia Moland Size 5MB Category Non-Fiction > Biographies & Memoirs File Type ePUB 📥 Download Links: https://uploda.sh/5RPerA8Rdrdp https://devuploads.com/ldpn15mjwo9x

Return To The Motherland by Seth Bernstein (.ePUB)
📮 Return To The Motherland by Seth Bernstein (.ePUB) Return to the Motherland follows those who were displaced to the Third Reich back to the Soviet Union after the victory over Germany. At the end of World War II, millions of people from Soviet lands were living as refugees outside the borders of the USSR. Most had been forced laborers and prisoners of war, deported to the Third Reich to work as racial inferiors in a crushing environment. Seth Bernstein reveals the secret history of repatriation, the details of the journey, and the new identities, prospects, and dangers for migrants that were created by the tumult of war. He uses official and personal sources from declassified holdings in post-Soviet archives, more than one hundred oral history interviews, and transnational archival material. Most notably, he makes extensive use of secret police files declassified only after the Maidan Revolution in Ukraine in 2014. The stories described in Return to the Motherland reveal not only how the USSR grappled with the aftermath of war but also the universality of Stalinism's refugee crisis. While arrest was not guaranteed, persecution was ubiquitous. Within Soviet society, returnees met with a cold reception that demanded hard labor as payment for perceived disloyalty, soldiers perpetrated rape against returning Soviet women, and ordinary people avoided contact with repatriates, fearing arrest as traitors and spies. As Bernstein describes, Soviet displacement presented a challenge to social order and the opportunity to rebuild the country as a great power after a devastating war. ♻️ Book's Info: Author Seth Bernstein Size 36MB Category Non-Fiction > History File Type ePUB 📥 Download Links: https://uploda.sh/61AlO497AZam https://devuploads.com/e2sf8sl3sp47

Winger's Landfall by Stuart Lauder (.ePUB)(.AZW3)
📮 Winger's Landfall by Stuart Lauder (.ePUB)(.AZW3) Below decks on a big liner an intense and curious life goes on. It is in no way like the orderly realm of the passengers. Noisy, sensual, crowded, the men and boys of the crew make their own world. Harry Shears shipped on theCyclamenfor a reason. His job was that of a table steward—a winger—but his purpose was to find out what had happened to his young half-brother. Danny had disappeared overboard on a previous trip and nobody knew why. Suicide, presumably, but for what possible reason? Very quickly, Harry is caught up in the life of the ship. It is a world without women and some of the men are glad to take the woman’s part. The rewards, in comfort, influence and flattered vanity, are immediate. The final result, when the “girl” is too old to play courtesan any more, is usually a life ruined beyond repair. In this strange, perverse half-world Harry Shears is immersed. He too could easily take part: in his own nature there is a strong vein of homosexuality. But he is repelled by the shrillness and self-deception of it all. For him , affection and quietness are what matter, even in an affair between men. He cannot either enter or avoid the world of the queers. Winger’s Landfall builds up a wonderfully strong and pungent image of this strange shipboard existence. In the echoing steel rooms and corridors different characters, forced into proximity, stand out in sharp and startling detail. The affections and conflicts that develop are sudden and violent. Through it all, the story of Harry Shears drives forward to its bitter, inescapable climax. ♻️ Book's Info: Author Stuart Lauder Size 842KB Category Fiction > Mystery/Thriller > General > LGBT > Queer File Type ePUB 📥 Download Links: https://uploda.sh/uP8Lnqsumd8V https://devuploads.com/6l8x3imal7lp
