Early American History New
Pontiac’s War Its Causes, Course and Consequences
Early American History
“Richard Middleton’s Pontiac’s War gives us the most careful, thorough, garrison-by-garrison, battle-by-battle account of the many sides of this complicated struggle to date. Clear and comprehensive, richly informed by current scholarship, Pontiac’s War reviews the roots of the conflict, and it corrects several reigning misconceptions about its progress.” —Gregory Evans Dowd, author of War under Heaven: Pontiac, the Indian Nations, and the British Empire
Pontiac’s War: Its Causes, Course, and Consequence is a compelling retelling of one of the most pivotal points in American colonial history, in which the Native peoples staged one of the most successful campaigns in three centuries of European contact. With his balanced analysis of the organization and execution of this important conflict, Middleton sheds light on the military movement that forced the British imperial forces to reinstate diplomacy to retain their authority over the region. Spotlighting the Native American perspective, Pontiac’s War presents a careful, engaging account of how very close to success those Native American forces truly came.

The Fault Lines of Empire
What Furniture Can Tell Us About the European and American Past
Political Differentiation in Massachusetts and Nova Scotia, 1760-1830
Edited by Dena Goodman, University of Michigan, USA and Kathryn Norberg, University of California, Los Angeles, USA
Elizabeth Mancke
“Ranging from the Orient, through Europe and on to North America, Furnishing the Eighteenth Century is a beautifully illustrated and pioneering analysis of the different ways in which material domestic environments shaped people’s lives.” —John Brewer, Professor of History and Literature, California Institute of Technology
Furnishing the Eighteenth Century provides an illuminating, interdisciplinary look into European and American furniture during the century that connoisseurs and collectors consider its golden age. Lavishly illustrated, this eclectic and lively collection of essays by historians, art historians, and literary scholars examines the many ways furniture of this period reflects the complex social and cultural issues that shaped this century in both Europe and America. In addition to furniture and portraiture, this diverse compilation considers literature, account books, and handbooks, allowing for a revealing look at how these furnishings created, contested, and subverted their cultures on both sides of the Atlantic. Ultimately, these essays make the past come alive, showing us what made this furniture meaningful in its own time, and why it is still meaningful today. 2006: 272pp: 105 illus Hb: 978-0-415-94953-8: US $65.00 £3 5 2 0 .
Revolutionary America, 1763-1815
“A landmark book that succeeds in bridging cultural, linguistic and disciplinary divides, and demonstrates the value of a comparative approach to American literary studies.”
Susan Castillo, University of Glasgow, UK
—American Studies
Revolutionary America describes and explains the crucial events in the history of the United States between 1763 and 1815, when settlers in North America rebelled against British authority, won their independence, and created the republic. Cogliano provides an overview of this formative period in the history of the US, placing the political facets of the history in the center of the narrative. This second edition will include more coverage of Native Americans, women, and African Americans.

The Foundations of Female Entrepreneurship Women in Business in Mid-Victorian London Alison Kay, King’s College London, UK Just as women in business have often been hidden by men, they have often also been hidden by the “home” and the conceptualization of separate spheres of public and private agency. Most recent findings on women in business are scattered in specialized journals and are difficult to identify by more general readers. To date, no single overview pulls these separate threads together for the nineteenth century. This book fills that gap.

The War for a Nation
The Routledge Companion to the American Civil War Era
The American Civil War
Hugh Tulloch, Bristol University, UK
Susan-Mary Grant, Newcastle University, UK
Arguably one of the most significant periods in US history, the American Civil War era continues to fascinate. In this essential reference guide to the period, Hugh Tulloch examines the war itself, alongside the political, constitutional, social, economic, literary and religious developments and trends that informed and were formed by the turbulent events that took place during America’s nineteenth century.
The War for a Nation provides a brief introduction to the American Civil War from the perspective of military personnel and civilians who participated in the conflict. Susan-Mary Grant brings the war, its many battles, and those who fought them — male and female, black and white — to the center of a riveting narrative that is accessible to general readers and students of American history. The War for a Nation explains, in a clear narrative structure, the war’s origins, its battles, the expansion of the Union, the struggle for emancipation, and the following saga of Reconstruction. By drawing its examples from primary source documents, first-hand accounts, and scholarly research, The War for a Nation introduces readers to the human-interest aspects as well as the historiographical debates surrounding what was the most destructive war ever fought on American soil. Select Contents: Introduction 1. Portents 2. Divisions 3. The Road to Perdition 4. All Quiet Along the Potomac 5. Battle Cry of Freedom 6. Into the West 7. The People Embodied 8.

20th Century History The New Global History Bruce Mazlish, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, USA From a distinguished author in the field, The New Global History is a critical inquiry into the historical process of globalization, which is seen as a distinctly twentieth century phenomenon with its roots in the age of expansion of the early modern world. Cutting across disciplinary boundaries, The New Global History offers a fresh, overarching view of the process of globalization that is always empirically based and discusses the most important themes, such as policy, trade, cultural imperialism and warfare. Bruce Mazlish argues that globalization is not something that the West has imposed upon the rest of the world, but the result of the interplay of many factors across continents. Students of history, politics and international studies, will all find this a valuable resource in the pursuit of their studies. 2006: 144pp eBook: 978-0-203-96894-9 Hb: 978-0-415-40920-9: US $110.00 Pb: 978-0-415-40921-6: US $30.95 £6 00 .

Judie Newman, University of Nottingham, UK
William Harris, the editor of Routledge’s The Old South: New Studies of Society and Culture, aims in The New South to introduce students to the historiography of this later volatile period of southern history, which starts from the racial segregation prevalent after the end of the Civil War and continues through the Civil Rights Movements of the 1950s and 1960s. For many years, this historiography centered on the writing of C. Vann Woodward. Woodward remains an important touchstone in the field, but in The New South, Harris gathers the most significant scholarship illustrating the range of challenges to Woodward’s interpretation of the South, including the importance of place, the role of women, the significance of memory, and the story of the “long Civil Rights Movement.” The collection also features an introduction to the historiography of the New South, and a Guide to Further Reading.
The Fourth Revolution shows how the cyclical nature of social movements has come to define not only American history but also the nation’s ideal of progress.
“incisive, cogent, timely and beautifully-written- this book represents a decisive intervention in current debates about transnationalism, postcolonialism, ethnicity and (neo)historicism.

FDR and Lucy Lovers and Friends Resa Willis, Drury University Now in paperback, FDR and Lucy is the first published account of the love affair between Franklin Delano Roosevelt and Lucy Mercer Rutherfurd, his wife’s secretary. While the rest of America seemed to know about the president’s infidelity, Eleanor declined to acknowledge the situation for four years until, in 1918, the truth became impossible to deny. Unable to divorce, FDR and Eleanor began a political marriage that would only fuel the first lady’s groundbreaking activism. One part historical account and one part love story, FDR and Lucy is a biography of an affair, revealing a man in need of comfort and respite from the cares of the presidency and the critical eyes of both his wife and mother.

Manhood and American Political Culture in the Cold War K.A. Cuordileone, CUNY - New York City College of Technology, USA “...it makes an original and important contribution to the history of Cold War America...” —Robert Dean, Eastern Washington University, The Journal of American History
When Americans talked about politics in the 1950s, they used the language of sex. Politicians were “soft” or “hard” on communism; leftists were “impotent,” “feminine,” “neurotic.” Never far from these “pinks” were “perverted,” “masochistic” reds, who yielded to the “ecstasy” of power and submission. Manhood and American Political Culture in the Cold War argues that this highly sexualized rhetoric was rooted in the social history of mid-century America. Anxieties about the shifting role of women, the soft conformity of men, the troubled “matriarchal” family, and the apparent rise of homosexuality all fed the so-called crisis of masculinity. Such anxieties merged with fears of totalitarianism to create an unusually sexually-charged political dynamic, as exemplified in the writing of Arthur Schlesinger, and the career of Joseph McCarthy.

Narratives of Global Empire
—David Brauner, University of Reading
Fictions of America: Narratives of Global Empire looks at the ways in which India, China and Africa can be said to have underwritten American culture, how literature has been marketed globally, and how novelists have answered back to power with resistant fictions. Judie Newman examines a wide range of fiction from the mid nineteenth to the twenty-first century including the transnational adoption narrative, short story, historical novel, slave narrative, international bestseller and Western to illustrate her argument. Looking closely at authors including Mukherjee, Updike, Prager and many more, Fictions of America provides a bold response to the crucial questions raised by globalization.

The Black Power Movement
Fighting the Good Fight
Rethinking the Civil Rights-Black Power Era
The Story of the Dexter Avenue King Memorial Baptist Church, 1865-1977
Edited by Peniel E. Joseph, Stony Brook University, State University of New York, USA
Houston Bryan Roberson, University of the South
New
The Black Power Movement remains an enigma. Often misunderstood and illdefined, this radical movement is now beginning to receive sustained and serious scholarly attention.
African-American Activism before the Civil War The Freedom Struggle in the Antebellum North Edited by Patrick Rael, Bowdoin College, Maine, USA Historians have long understood that racial oppression in American history was about more than slavery. On the eve of the Civil War, over five per cent of the nation’s 4.5 million African Americans lived outside of bondage in the nominally ‘free’ states of the Union. These African Americans exercised a power in national discussions over slavery that far outstripped their number in the population. Their efforts at community building and radical protest were one force that helped bring the nation to the brink of Civil War, and ultimately led to the extinction of slavery.
Peniel Joseph has collected the freshest and most impressive list of contributors around to write original essays on the Black Power Movement. Taken together they provide a critical and much needed historical overview of the Black Power era. Offering important examples of undocumented histories of black liberation, this volume offers both powerful and poignant examples of ‘Black Power Studies’ scholarship.
African-American Activism before the Civil War is the first collection of scholarship on the role of African Americans in the struggle for racial equality in the northern states before the Civil War. Many of these essays are already known as classics in the field, and others are well on their way to becoming definitive in a still-evolving field. Here, in one place for the first time, anchored by a comprehensive, analytical introduction discussing the historiography of antebellum black activism, the best scholarship on this crucial group of African American activists can finally be studied together.

The Slavery Reader Now in Paperback
Edited by Gad Heuman and James Walvin
Freedom’s Sword
The Slavery Reader brings together the most recent and essential writings on slavery. The focus is on Atlantic slavery — the enforced movement of millions of Africans from their homelands into the Americas, and the complex historical story of slavery in the Americas. Spanning almost five centuries — the late fifteenth until the mid-nineteenth — the articles trace the range and impact of slavery on the modern Western world.
The NAACP and the Struggle against Racism in America, 1909-1969
Between Freedom and Bondage
“This long overdue account of the NAACP’s first sixty years offers both an insider’s view of the movement and a comprehensive history of it. Scholars of twentieth-century America will be in Jonas’s debt for bringing it together in one worthy volume.”
Race, Party, and Voting Rights in the Antebellum North
—Henry Louis Gates, Jr., W.E.B. Du Bois Professor of the Humanities, Harvard University
New
Christopher Malone, Pace University, New York, USA Between Freedom and Bondage looks at the fluctuations of black suffrage in the antebellum North, using the four states of New York, Pennsylvania, Massachusetts and Rhode Island as examples. In each of these states, a different outcome was obtained for blacks in their quest to share the vote. By analyzing the various outcomes of state struggles, Malone offers a framework for understanding and explaining how the issue of voting rights for blacks unfolded between the drafting of the Constitution, and the end of the Civil War.

Freedom’s Sword is the first account to detail the remarkable, lasting achievements of the NAACP’s first sixty years. From its pivotal role in overturning the Jim Crow laws in the South to the twenty-year court campaign culminating with Brown v. the Board of Education, the NAACP has been at the forefront of the struggle against American racism. Gilbert Jonas, a fiftyyear veteran of the organization, tracks America’s political and social landscape period by period, as the NAACP grew to 400,000 members and was recognized by both blacks and whites as the leading force for social justice. Jonas recounts the historic combined efforts of ordinary citizens and black leaders such as W.E.B. Du Bois, James Weldon Johnson, and Thurgood Marshall to root out white-only political primaries, separate schools, and segregated city buses. Freedom’s Sword is a vivid and passionately written account of the single most influential secular organization in black America.

American Nations Encounters in Indian Country, 1850 to the Present Edited by Frederick Hoxie, Peter Mancall and James Merrell This volume brings together an impressive collection of important works covering nearly every aspect of early Native American history, from contact and exchange to diplomacy, religion, warfare, and disease.
Claudia Haake, University of York, UK This book investigates the forced migration of the Delawares in the United States and the Yaquis in Mexico, focusing primarily on the impact removal from tribal lands had on the (ethnic) identity of these two indigenous societies. It analyzes Native responses to colonial and state policies to determine the practical options that each group had in dealing with the states in which they lived. Haake convincingly argues that both nation-states aimed at the destruction of the Native American societies within their borders. This exemplary comparative, transnational study clearly demonstrates that the legacy of these attitudes and policies are readily apparent in both countries today. This book should appeal to a wide variety of academic disciplines in which diversity and minority political representation assume significance.

Almost All Aliens Immigration, Race, and Colonialism in American History and Identity Paul Spickard, University of California, USA “Almost All Aliens is simply stunning. Spickard powerfully connects the study of immigration to the histories of race, slavery, and the displacement of Native peoples. In doing so, he revises both immigration history and American history.” —Erika Lee, author of At America’s Gates: Chinese Immigration During the Exclusion Era, 1882-1943
“With Almost All Aliens Paul Spickard again demonstrates that he is one of our most skillful and innovative interpreters of race and ethnicity in American life. He challenges most of the assumptions made about the topic since Crévecoeur asked his fateful question and provides an exciting analytic narrative of our immigrant past.” —Roger Daniels, Charles Phelps Taft Professor Emeritus of History, University of Cincinnati
Almost All Aliens is the most thorough reinterpretation of the shape and meaning of immigration in United States history that has been written in several decades. Drawing on the insights of ethnic studies and the issues raised by new immigration in the last third of the twentieth century, Almost All Aliens presents a major new interpretation of a fundamental issue in US history and public policy.

At the turn of the millennium, the United States has the largest number of immigrants in its history. As a consequence, immigration has emerged once again as a subject of scholarly inquiry and policy debate. This volume brings together the dominant conceptual and theoretical work on the “New Immigration” from such disparate disciplines as anthropology, demography, psychology, and sociology. Immigration today is a global and transnational phenomenon that affects every region of the world with unprecedented force. Although this volume is devoted to scholarly work on the new immigration in the U.S. setting, any of the broader conceptual issues covered here also apply to other postindustrial countries such as France, Germany, and Japan. 2005: 384pp Hb: 978-0-415-94915-6: US $95.00 Pb: 978-0-415-94916-3: US $35.00 £6 00 .

How the Irish Became White Noel Ignatiev “...from time to time a study comes along that truly can be called “path breaking,” “seminal,” “essential,” a “must read.” How the Irish Became White is such a study.” —John Bracey, W.E.B. Du Bois Department of Afro-American Studies, University of Massachusetts, Amherst
The Irish came to America in the eighteenth century, fleeing a homeland under foreign occupation and a caste system that regarded them as the lowest form of humanity. In the new country — a land of opportunity — they found a very different form of social hierarchy, one that was based on the color of a person’s skin. Noel Ignatiev’s 1995 book — the first published work of one of America’s leading and most controversial historians — tells the story of how the oppressed became the oppressors; how the new Irish immigrants achieved acceptance among an initially hostile population only by proving that they could be more brutal in their oppression of African Americans than the nativists. This is the story of How the Irish Became White. Series: Routledge Classics Septeber 2008: 320pp Pb: 978-0-415-96309-1: US $23.95 £1 9 2 9 .

—Borderlines: Studies in American Culture
The Myth of the Greatest Generation examines American experiences in the military and on the home front, and delves into both personal and national issues, calling into question the dominant view of the war as ‘the good war’, somehow better than any other conflict America’s been through.
This much-needed update of American Cultural Studies takes into account the developments of the last seven years, providing an introduction to the central themes in modern American culture and exploring how these themes can be interpreted. Campbell and Kean discuss the various aspects of American cultural life such as religion, gender and sexuality and regionalism.

When Welfare Disappears
American Civilization
The Case for Economic Human Rights
The New York Intellectuals Reader
An Introduction
Kenneth J. Neubeck, University of Connecticut, USA
Edited by Neil Jumonville, Florida State University
David Mauk, University of Oslo and John Oakland, Norwegian University of Science and Technology, Norway
This groundbreaking book offers a history of welfare, an accurate portrayal of welfare recipients and an understanding of the diverse characteristics of lonemother-headed families affected by welfare reform.
In the early 1930’s in a small alcove at City College in New York a group of young, passionate, and politically radical students argued for hours about the finer points of Marxist doctrine, the true nature of socialism, and whether or not Stalin or Trotsky was the true heir to Lenin. These young intellectuals, including Alfred Kazin, Mary McCarthy, Hannah Arendt and Lionel Trilling among others, went on to write for and found some of the most well known political and literary journals of the 20th century.

A History with Documents, 1935-1996 Premilla Nadasen, Brooklyn College, Jennifer Mittelstadt, Penn State University, and Marisa Chappell Oregon State University Welfare is at the center of countless personal and political debates including the decline of urban centers, increases in single parenthood, rising tax burdens, the racial and gendered nature of the welfare state, and political empowerment of poor women. With a comprehensive introduction and well-chosen collection of primary documents Welfare in the United States provides an accessible history of welfare by examining the transformation of the Aid to Families with Dependent Children (AFDC) program from its inception in 1935 until its decline in 1996, and the results and repercussions of its demise. Following the shifting demographics of the welfare rolls, policy debates about welfare, the institutional history and major turning points over the past seventy years, Welfare in the United States serves as the complete guide to the history of American welfare.

Consuming History
Witchcraft Myths in American Culture
Jerome De Groot, University of Manchester, UK
Marion Gibson, University of Exeter, UK
A History of Religion and Visual Media in America
Non-academic history — “public history” — is a complex, dynamic entity which impacts on the popular understanding of the past at all levels. There is currently a voracious audience for all things historical: cultural histories, celebrity historians, historical novels, films, TV drama, documentaries and relaity shows, as well as cultural events and historical re-enactments. In Consuming History, Jerome De Groot examines how society consumes history and how a reading of this consumption can help us understand popular culture and issues of representation. It looks at the presentation and interpretation of history across a wide range of media, from blockbuster fictional narratives such as The Da Vinci Code to televised documentaries such as Simon Schama’s A History of Britain and star-studded historical films like Titanic. Jerome De Groot probes how museums have responded to the heritage debate and the way in which new technologies have brought about a shift in historical access, from online game playing to internet genealogy. And he discusses the often conflicted relationship between “public” and academic history, and raises important questions about the theory and practice of history as a discipline. Consuming History is an important and engaging analysis of the social consumption of history and offers an essential path through the debates for readers interested in history, cultural studies and the media.

Consuming Habits Global and Historical Perspectives on How Cultures Define Drugs Edited by Jordan Goodman, University College London, UK, Paul E. Lovejoy, University of York, Canada and Andrew Sherratt, formerly at the University of Sheffield, UK Covering a wide range of substances, including opium, cocaine, coffee, tobacco, kola, and betelnut, from prehistory to the present day, this new edition has been extensively updated, with an updated bibliography and two new chapters on cannabis and khat. Consuming Habits is the perfect companion for all those interested in how different cultures have defined drugs across the ages. Psychoactive substances have been central to the formation of civilizations, the definition of cultural identities, and the growth of the world economy. The labeling of these substances as “legalî or “illegalî has diverted attention away from understanding their important cultural and historical role. This collection explores the rich analytical category of psychoactive substances from challenging historical and anthropological perspectives.

“This is a terrific read: exciting, wide-ranging, wonderfully researched, and with a deep tolerance and good humor.”
The Lure of Images David Morgan, Christ College Valparaiso University, USA This is the history of the relationship between mass produced visual media and religion in the United States. It is a journey from the 1780s to the present - from early evangelical tracts to teenage witches and televangelists, and from illustrated books to contemporary cinema.
—Ronald Hutton, author of The Triumph of the Moon: A History of Modern Pagan Witchcraft
Witchcraft Myths in American Culture is the only account of witchcraft in America that mixes the study of popular culture with the reading of traditional historical texts on the subject. From the Salem witch trials to modern day Wicca: from Buffy the Vampire Slayer to the Harry Potter phenomenon and beyond, Gibson’s engaging and accessible approach provides new energy and perspective on classical and contemporary witchcraft history, portrayal, and mythos. This fresh viewpoint, coupled with a careful examination of the meaning of witchcraft to the evolution of women’s rights and empowerment, makes this book essential in understanding the role witchcraft has played in American social and cultural history. Select Contents: Introduction 1. E Pluribus Unum? (Looks at the Role That Stories of Witchcraft and Magic Played American State-Building) 2. ‘Our Town’ (Each Town Dealt with Witches its Own Way and Local Micro-Politics Were Involved in Determining the Course of Events) 3. ‘There’s a Little Witch in Every Woman’ (From the Political Consideration of Witchcraft to the Personal — The Gendered and Sexual Aspects of Being a Witch) 4. ‘We Will Not Fly Silently into the Night’ (Examines the Re-Imagining of Witchcraft as Religion (Wicca), One That is Often Seen as Empowering Women and Helping Reverse the Demonization That Condemned Many in the Colonial Period) 5. Witches in the Family (Explores the Positive Portrayals of Witches in Recent American Culture (Harry Potter, Sabrina the Teenaged Witch)). Conclusion
David Morgan explores the cultural marketplace of public representation, showing how American religionists have made special use of visual media to instruct the public, to practice devotion and ritual, and to form children and converts. Examples include: • studying Jesus as an American idol • Jewish kitchens and Christian Parlors • Billy Sunday and Buffy the Vampire Slayer • Uncle Tom’s Cabin and the anti-slavery movement. This unique perspective reveals the importance of visual media to the construction and practice of sectarian and national community in a nation of immigrants old and new, and the tensions between the assimilation and the preservation of ethnic and racial identities. As well as the contribution of visual media to the religious life of Christians and Jews, Morgan shows how images have informed the perceptions and practices of other religions in America, including New Age, Buddhist and Hindu spirituality, and Mormonism, Native American Religions and the Occult.

The Wearing of the Green A History of St Patrick’s Day Mike Cronin, De Montfort University, Leicester, UK and Daryl Adair, University of Canberra, Australia Illustrated with photos, the book spans the medieval origins, steeped in folklore and myth, through its turbulent and troubled times when it acted as fuel for fierce political argument, and tells the fascinating story of how the celebration of 17th March was transformed from a stuffy dinner for Ireland’s elite to one of the world’s most public festivals. Looking at more general Irish traditions and Irish communities throughout the world, Adair and Cronin follow the history of this widely celebrated event, examining how the day has been exploited both politically and commercially, and they explore the shared heritage of the Irish through the development of this unique patriotic holiday. 2006: 328pp Hb: 978-0-415-18004-7: US $75.00 Pb: 978-0-415-35912-2: US $19.95 £4 0 5 0 .

The Feminist History Reader Edited by Sue Morgan, University College, Chichester, UK
New
The Feminist History Reader gathers together key articles, from some of the very best writers in the field, that have shaped the dynamic historiography of the past thirty years, and introduces students to the major shifts and turning points in this dialogue.
Unequal Sisters, 4th Edition An Inclusive Reader in US Women’s History Edited by Vicki L. Ruiz, University of California, Irvine with Ellen DuBois, UCLA “With over a dozen new essays, the fourth edition of Unequal Sisters is perhaps the strongest yet in terms of depth, breadth, and diversity of analysis. It is an exciting, vital mix of now-classic statements and cutting-edge work that brilliantly illuminates the complexities of ethnicity, race, class, region, gender, and sexuality. The anthology is undoubtedly among the very best in the field.” —Michele Mitchell, author of Righteous Propagation: African Americans and the Politics of Racial Destiny after Reconstruction
“Grounded in the exploration of gender, race, class, and generational differences, this new edition of Unequal Sisters proves, yet again, that the field of Women’s History continues to be at the forefront of our collective desire to understand the ways that women’s complex pasts remain deeply relevant for all those who struggle for equality and a just society today. Without a doubt, this book is essential reading for all!” —Suzanne Oboler, author of Latinos and Citizenship: The Dilemma of Belonging
This essential work provides an unparalleled resource for understanding women’s history in the United States today. With its broad, multicultural approach, Unequal Sisters revolutionized the field when it was first published in 1990. This fourth edition brings together essays from the previous three editions, along with new perspectives and voices, including some of the most innovative work that has been done since the last edition was published.

The Reader is divided into four sections: • early feminist historians’ writings following the move from reclaiming women’s past through to the development of gender history • the interaction of feminist history with ëthe linguistic turn’ and the challenges made by post-structuralism and the responses it provoked • the work of lesbian historians and queer theorists in their challenge of the heterosexism of feminist history writing • the work of black feminists and postcolonial critics/Third World scholars and how they have laid bare the ethnocentric and imperialist tendencies of feminist theory. Each reading has a comprehensive and clearly structured introduction with a guide to further reading, this wideranging guide to developments in feminist history is essential reading for all students of history.

The Transgender Studies Reader
Birth in Transition in the United States
A History of European Sexuality
Edited by Susan Stryker and Stephen Whittle
Anna Clark, University of Minnesota, USA
Transgender studies is the latest area of academic inquiry to grow out of the exciting nexus of queer theory, feminist studies, and the history of sexuality. Because transpeople challenge our most fundamental assumptions about the relationship between bodies, desire, and identity, the field is both fascinating and contentious. The Transgender Studies Reader puts between two covers fifty influential texts with new introductions by the editors that, taken together, document the evolution of transgender studies in the English-speaking world. By bringing together the voices and experience of transgender individuals, doctors, psychologists and academically-based theorists, this volume will be a foundational text for the transgender community, transgender studies, and related queer theory.

Anna Julia Cooper, Visionary Black Feminist A Critical Introduction Vivian M. May Vivian M. May explores the theoretical and political contributions of Anna Julia Cooper, a renowned Black feminist scholar, educator and activist whose ideas deserve far more attention than they have received. Drawing on Africana and feminist theory, May places Cooper’s theorizing in its historical contexts and offers new ways to interpret the evolution of Cooper’s visionary politics, subversive methodology, and defiant philosophical outlook. Rejecting notions that Cooper was an elitist duped by dominant ideologies, May contends that Cooper’s ambiguity, code-switching, and irony should be understood as strategies of a radical methodology of dissent.

Violent Femmes Women as Spies in Popular Culture Rosie White, University of Northumbria, UK The female spy has long exerted a strong grip on the popular imagination. With reference to popular fiction, film and television Violent Femmes examines the figure of the female spy as a nexus of contradictory ideas about femininity, power, sexuality and national identity. Fictional representations of women as spies have recurrently traced the dynamic of women’s changing roles in British and American culture. Employing the central trope of women who work as spies, Rosie White examines cultural shifts during the twentieth century regarding the role of women in the professional workplace. Violent Femmes will examine the female spy as a figure in popular discourse which simultaneously conforms to cultural stereotypes and raises questions about women’s roles in British and American culture, in terms of gender, sexuality and national identity.

White Weddings Romancing Heterosexuality in Popular Culture Chrys Ingraham, Purchase College, New York This is a groundbreaking study of our culture’s obsession with weddings. By examining popular films, commercials, magazines, advertising, television sitcoms and even children’s toys, this book shows the pervasive influence of weddings in our culture and the important role they play in maintaining the romance of heterosexuality, the myth of white supremacy and the insatiable appetite of consumer capitalism. It examines how the economics and marketing of weddings have replaced the religious and moral view of marriage.
“This volume covers the period before, during, and after the Tet Offensive of January 1968, in an effort to show why these events constituted the pivotal moment in turning Americans against the war in Vietnam. William Allison has fleshed out a nicelywritten narrative with numerous illustrations, followed by documents, along with the views of historians, all encouraging the reader to form an independent assessment of the problems in getting out of war. An excellent work for the classroom, moderate in length, and guaranteed to stir student interest.” —Howard Jones, author of Death of a Generation: How the Assassinations of Diem and JFK Prolonged the Vietnam War
With Americans turning against the war in ever greater numbers, struggles for power between the government and the military, and no end in sight to the fighting, the Tet Offensive of 1968 proved to be the turning point of the Vietnam War. In The Tet Offensive, historian William Thomas Allison provides a clear, concise overview of the major events and issues surrounding the Tet Offensive, and compiles carefully selected primary sources to illustrate the complex military, political, and public decisions that made up Tet. The Tet Offensive is composed of two parts: an accessible, well-illustrated narrative overview, and a collection of core primary source documents. Throughout the narrative, historiographic questions are addressed within the text to highlight discussion among historians over pivotal points of debate. The objectively selected documents provide students with raw material from which to gain insight into these events through their own analysis, and to improve their ability to discuss and understand the importance of historical scholarship. Approachable and insightful, The Tet Offensive is not only a great introduction to reading history through primary sources, it is an essential tool for understanding what made the Tet Offensive such an important turning point of the Vietnam War.

The Search for Negotiated Peace David S. Patterson “In this engaged and insightful narrative of the internationally-minded citizens’ peace movement of the Great War era, David Patterson helps us appreciate that we can, indeed must, study flawed efforts to achieve peace in past times to help us fashion a more humane and peaceful world for the future.” —Frances H. Early, author of A World Without War: How U.S. Feminists and Pacifists Resisted World War I
The First World War was an epic event of huge proportions that lasted over four years and involved the armies of more than twenty nations, resulting in thirty million casualties, including more than eight million killed. Set against the backdrop of this massive carnage, The Search for Negotiated Peace is the gripping story of the events that moved high profile American and European citizens, particularly women, into the international peace movement. This small, transatlantic network put forth proposals for changing the international system of negotiation. They supported non-annexationist war aims and attempted to discredit nations’ secret diplomacy, militarism and narrowly nationalistic practices. Instead, they wanted to develop a “new diplomacy.” David Patterson skillfully develops the interactions of many of the notable leaders of the movement, including Jane Addams, Aletta Jacobs, and Rosika Schwimmer, into an absorbing narrative that brings together the various strands of women’s history, international diplomatic history, and peace history for the first time. The Search for Negotiated Peace is an essential read for anyone interested in the social history of World War I and the foundations of citizen activism today.

Sahr Conway-Lanz How was the U.S.-led attack on Iraq in 2003 different than the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor in 1941? What exactly is the “preemptive strike” policy, and is it unique to the Bush administration?
“An outstanding volume that is sure to be of interest to faculty and cadets, as well as historians and national security professionals far and wide.” —Lance Betros, Colonel, US Army
“The American Culture of War is a first-rate study that asks big questions and provides answers that are of value to American and non-American scholars alike. It makes a major contribution to the developing cultural approach to military history.” —Jeremy Black, Professor of History, University of Exeter
The American Culture of War presents a sweeping critical examination of every major American war since 1941: World War II, Korea, Vietnam, and the First and Second Persian Gulf Wars. As he carefully considers the myriad cultural forces that surrounded each military engagement, Adrian Lewis offers an original, provocative look at the motives people and governments used to wage war, the discord among military personnel, the flawed political policies that guided military strategy, and the civilian perceptions that characterized each conflict. With each chapter similarly structured, to allow the reader to draw parallels between the wars, Lewis deftly traces the evolution of US military strategy since the Second World War. Timely, incisive, and comprehensive, The American Culture of War is a unique and invaluable survey of over sixty years of American military history. Select Contents: Introduction 1.

Collateral Damage is a history of America’s attempt to reconcile the atrocity of modern warfare with the idea that killing innocent civilians is off-limits and not justified to win a war. Conway-Lanz considers both policymakers’ responses to the issues as well as the American public’s perceptions of war violence against civilians, starting after WWII, for the most complete examination of modern American discourse on the topic.
Matthew Flynn seeks here to draw parallels between the current US policy of preventive war by preemptive strike (striking first at countries that might at some point in the future make war on you), and the key origins of other wars throughout modern history, to put the policy of preemptive war in historical perspective and to also show how different such a war-like policy is for the United States. First Strike details the “Shock and Awe” policy of the Bush administration, and also examines the origins of six major wars occurring in the last two hundred years where those nations initiating the conflict invoked language similar to the Bush doctrine.
Select Contents:
The U.S. may well be on a path toward a new role and identity as a nation, but the cost and worth of such a move, and the use of the preemptive strike, should be weighed in light of the historical examples found in this book.

Persuaders-in-Chief The Presidents and Propaganda That Shaped Modern America Nancy Snow, California State University In the wake of September 11th, the question was raised “why is the U.S. so hated by so many in the worked?” In response to this, the Bush administration set out to “change the heart and minds” of the rest world by “selling” America and its values to the rest of the world. This was to be accomplished by appointing Charlotte Beers, a former advertising executive once nicknamed “the most powerful woman in advertising,” to serve as U.S. Undersecretary for Public Diplomacy. Beers spearhead the creation of the State Department’s “Shared Values” campaign, whose goal has been to counteract the anti-American sentiment in Arab countries. In this book, Nancy Snow, shows that this is hardly the first time a president has employed the use of propaganda at home and abroad to promote the themes of peace and freedom. Through the examination of twelve presidents beginning with Woodrow Wilson and the journalist George Creel’s attempts to mobilize mass support for the U.S. entry into WWI, Snow documents a 100 year legacy of White House propaganda efforts. She examines how new technologies have challenged and/or bolstered the efficacy these efforts. October 2008: 208pp Hb: 978-0-415-95004-6: US $90.00 Pb: 978-0-415-95005-3: US $26.95 £5 00 .

Marx, Lenin, and the Revolutionary Experience Studies of Communism and Radicalism in an Age of Globalization Paul LeBlanc, La Roche College Marx, Lenin, and the Revolutionary Experience offers a fresh look at Communism, both the bad and good, and also touches on anarchism, Christian theory, conservatism, liberalism, Marxism, and more, to argue for the enduring relevance of Karl Marx, and V.I. Lenin as democratic revolutionaries. It examines the “Red Decade” of the 1930s and the civil rights movement and the New Left of the 1960s in the United States as well. Studying the past to grapple with issues of war and terrorism, exploitation, hunger, ecological crisis, and trends toward deadening “de-spiritualization”, the book shows how the revolutionaries of the past are still relevant to today’s struggles. It offers a clearly written and carefully reasoned thematic discussion of globalization, Marxism, Christianity (and religion in general), Communism, the history of the USSR and US radical and social movements. 2006: 320pp Hb: 978-0-415-97974-0: US $95.00 Pb: 978-0-415-97973-3: US $29.95 £6 00 .

Kevin Mattson, Ohio Univeristy A sweeping intellectual history that will make us rethink postwar politics and culture, When America Was Great profiles the thinkers and writers who crafted a new American liberal tradition in a conservative era — from historians Arthur Schlesinger, Jr., and C. Vann Woodward, to economist John Kenneth Galbraith and theologian Reinhold Niebuhr. A compelling tale that will redefine the word “liberal” for a new generation, Mattson retraces the intellectual journey of these towering figures. They served in the Second World War. They opposed communism but also wanted to make America’s poor visible to the affluent society. Contrary to those who characterize liberals as naïve or sentimental “bleeding hearts,” they had a tough-minded and nuanced vision that stressed both human limitations and hope. They felt America should stand for something more than just a strong economy. 2006: 256pp Pb: 978-0-415-94776-3: US $18.95

Throughout, she places advocates for freedom and equality at the center, moving from their struggle for physical freedom in the slavery era to more recent battles for equal rights and economic equality. From the colonial period to the present, this book examines education, property ownership, voting rights, criminal justice, and the military as well as internationalism and civil liberties. Race, Law, and American Society is highly accessible and thorough in its depiction of the role race has played, with the sanction of the U.S. Supreme Court, in shaping virtually every major American social institution.

Its collaborative and comprehensive portrayal of many Atlantics and the multiple forms of knowledge they generated will ensure that neither the history of science nor Atlantic history will ever look the same again.”

—David Armitage, co-editor of The British Atlantic World, 1500-1800
The history of science beyond Europe has traditionally been understood through heroic narratives of discovery and exploration. But in the early modern Atlantic world, it was commercial travel, back and forth across the ocean to the “New World,” that made new knowledge of all kinds. Science and Empire in the Atlantic World is the first book to examine the making of scientific knowledge in the early modern Americas from a comparative and international perspective. Twelve essays from leading scholars range from the science of navigation in Seville to the creation of medical knowledge in Brazil, from experiments with electricity in British America to the practice of Mesmerism in Haiti. Connecting Atlantic history with the history of science, the chapters explore how knowledge and the colonial order were made together, through complex interactions between metropolitan travelers, Creole settlers, Amerindians, and African slaves. Re-orienting our view of knowledge’s movement along the networks between center and periphery, Science and Empire in the Atlantic World shows just how challenging it was to make knowledge — and impose control — at a distance.

Natural Protest explores environmental protest in American history. It attempts to explode recurring assumptions about the environmental movement in the US that have tended to synthesize its interests and characteristics (save the whales, all environmentalists are hippies, etc). The modern movement is a very diverse group of social and ecological interests, so coming up with definitions is both awkward and misleading.
Place, Race, and Story
Natural Protest
A Short History of New York from Colonial Times to the Present
Essays on the History of American Environmentalism
This collection brings together studies of the most interesting work within the field of environmental history in recent years, focusing on previously unrecognized ecological protests and on communities that are typically marginalized. The collection also seeks to implant environmentalism more directly into mainstream American history. It aims to demonstrate the variety and profusion of Americans’ efforts to improve the ecology of their lives and work through action and protest. From Jamestown to 9/11, landscape, natural resources, and environmental health have been central to the American ethos, psyche, and condition. Natural Protest is the first edited history volume to examine the varied origins and elements of American environmentalism and to make broad connections between these diverse trends.

Ned Kaufman In Place, Race, and Story, author Ned Kaufman has collected essays dedicated to the proposition of giving the next generation of preservationists not only a foundational knowledge of the field of study, but more ideas on where they can take it. Through both bigpicture essays considering preservation across time, and descriptions of work on specific sites, the essays in this collection trace the themes of place, race, and story in ways that raise questions, stimulate discussion, and offer a different perspective on these common themes. Including unpublished essays as well as established works by the author, Place, Race, and Story provides a new outline for a progressive preservation movement—the revitalized movement for social progress.

Mikael Hård, University of Technology, Darmstadt, Germany and Andrew Jamison, Aalborg University, Denmark “In their excellent book Hubris and Hybrids, historians Mikael Hård and Andrew Jamison engage in a cultural assessment of science and technology. They replace the traditional ‘heroic tale’ of scientific genius with stories of the frequently mixed blessings of science and technology.” —Nature “These new stories of science and social movements, machine-breaking, environmentalism, and the politics of development lay the groundwork for a bold and much needed cultural assessment of technology and science.”

Did alligators ever really live in New York’s sewers? What’s it like to explore the old aqueducts beneath the city? How many levels are beneath Grand Central Station? And how exactly did the pneumatic tube system that New York’s post offices used to employ work? In this richly illustrated historical tour of New York’s vast underground systems, Julia Solis answers all these questions and much, much more. New York Underground takes readers through ingenious criminal escape routes, abandoned subway stations, and dark crypts beneath lower Manhattan to expose the city’s basic anatomy. While the city is justly famous for what lies above ground, its underground passages are equally legendary and tell us just as much about how the city works.
Branding New York How a City in Crisis Was Sold to the World Miriam Greenberg, University of California, Santa Cruz Branding New York traces the rise of New York City as a brand and the resultant transformation of urban politics and public life. Greenberg addresses the role of ‘image’ in urban history, showing who produces brands and how, and demonstrates the enormous consequences of branding. She shows that the branding of New York was not simply a marketing tool; rather it was a political strategy meant to legitimatize marketbased solutions over social objectives.

Persistant poverty has long been one of America’s most pressing and intractable problems. According to some estimates, by 2003, almost twenty-five percent of the America’s countries had per-capita incomes below one half the national average, high unemployment, low labor force participation rates, and a high dependency on government transfer payments — all measures of economic distress. An Atlas of Poverty in America shows how and where America’s regional development patterns have become more uneven, and graphically illustrates the increasing number of communities falling behind the national economic average. Readers will be able to use this Atlas to see how major events and trends have impacted the scope and extent of American poverty in the past half-century-economic globalization, the rise of the sunbelt, decline of the welfare state, and the civil rights movement. Also includes 195 color maps.

Latin American History Foreign Aid as Foreign Policy The Alliance for Progress in Latin America Jeffrey F. Taffet Foreign Aid as Foreign Policy presents a wide-ranging, thoughtful analysis of the most significant economicaid program of the 1960s, John F. Kennedy’s Alliance for Progress. Introduced in 1961, the program was a ten-year, multi-billion-dollar foreign-aid commitment to Latin American nations, meant to help promote economic growth and political reform, with the long-term goal of countering Communism in the region. Considering the Alliance for Progress in Chile, Brazil, the Dominican Republic, and Colombia, Jeffrey F. Taffet deftly examines the program’s successes and failures, providing an in-depth discussion of economic aid and foreign policy, showing how policies set in the 1960s are still affecting how the U.S. conducts foreign policy today. This study adds an important chapter to the history of US-Latin American Relations.

Journeys From Past to Present
Using a thematic approach supported by a variety of evidence and multidisciplinary interpretations, World History: Journeys from Past to Present provides a dynamic framework for the study of the vast reaches of our common past. Distinguished by truly global coverage, this new survey helps us to discover the connections between past and present from earliest prehistory to the present age of globalization. Thematic chapters explore mobility and the interrelationship of peoples; their connections with the environment; the communities they form; the patterns of dominance and submission involved in the ways they organize themselves politically, economically, and socially; and the ways in which they construct and express cultures through ideas, religion art, and architecture. World History has many student-friendly features, including: • primary source material to support the thematic argument • over ninety images and maps to enhance and illuminate the text • guided links to online resources, including the multimedia website Bridging World History • a dedicated website with discussion questions to assist revision and deepen understanding at www.routledge.com/textbooks/9780415771375 World History: Journeys from Past to Present will be an invaluable resource for students in college and university world history or world civilization courses and for anyone interested in a comprehensive framework for grasping world history.

This book features some of the greatest travelers in human history — people who undertook long journeys to places they knew little or nothing about. From Roman tourists, to the establishment of the Silk Road; an epic trek round China and India in the seventh century, to Marco Polo and through to the first speculations on space travel, Premodern Travel in World History provides an overview of long-distance travel in Afro-Eurasia from around 400BCE to 1500. This survey uses succinct accounts of the most epic journeys in the premodern world as lenses through which to examine the development of early travel, trade and cultural interchange between China, central Asia, India and Southeast Asia, while also discussing themes such as the growth of empires and the spread of world religions. Complete with maps, this concise and interesting study analyzes how travel pushed and shaped the boundaries of political, geographical and cultural frontiers.

Premodern Trade in World History Richard L Smith This far reaching study examines the key theme of trading in world history, from the earliest signs of trade until 1500 when long distance trade routes such as the famous Silk Road were firmly established. Including coverage of ancient Egypt and Sumeria, and the Akkadian, Babylonian, Assyrian, and Persian empires, Richard L. Smith shows how the Roman Empire consolidated rather than created a large scale trading system. At the same time, he shows how international trade was developing in South and East Asia and in Africa. As well as surveying the development of trade in different regions, the book brings the story vividly to life through a detailed examination of how they came together, through the lens of the trans-Saharan trade route.

History Goes to the Movies
Deconstructing History
The Modern Historiography Reader
Studying History on Film
Alun Munslow, University of Chichester, UK Surveying the latest research, this welcome second edition of Alun Munslow’s successful Deconstructing History provides an excellent introduction to the debates and issues of postmodernist history. This new edition has been updated and revised and, along with the original discussion material and topics, now: • assesses the claims of history as a form of ‘truthful’ explanation • discusses the limits of conventional historical thinking and practice, and the responses of the ‘new empiricists’ to the book’s central arguments • examines the arrival of ëexperimental history’ and its implications • clarifies the utility of addressing Michael Foucault and Hayden White, and strengthens the analysis of Frank R. Ankersmit’s recent work. Along with an updated glossary, and a revised bibliography, this second edition will not only live up to its predecessor’s reputation, but will surpass it as the most essential student resource for studying history and its practice.
Western Sources Historiography is one of the most important and basic areas of study for all budding historians. Yet in such a broad field, how does the student find their way through it? In The Modern Historiography Reader, Adam Budd guides the reader through developments in history writing since the eighteenth century. Starting with Enlightened history and moving through subjects like myth in history, biography and the impact of scientific principles on history, he then moves on to look at some of the most important developments in twentiethcentury historiography such as social history, gender history, race and postmodernism. The book includes an introduction which explains what historiography is, looks at how a historian’s perspective and sources determine the kinds of questions they ask, and discusses how major ideological developments have shaped historical writing over the last three hundred years. Each section has an introduction which familiarizes the reader with the individual topics and articles and puts them in their wider context. Also including a chronology and selected further reading sections in each section, this is the perfect introduction to historiography, including both the canon of ideas since the eighteenth century, but also the work that formed and discussed those ideas.

Using examples ranging from late nineteenth century short films, to twenty-first century DVDs, Marnie HughesWarrington incorporates film analysis, advertisements, merchandise and internet forums, and evaluates the varied ways in which filmmakers, promoters, viewers and scholars understand film as history. History Goes to the Movies is written from an international perspective and, blending theoretical and methodological issues with lots of real examples, discusses such issues as: • Do historical films necessarily make bad (or good) history? • Can film be used as historical evidence? • Are documentaries more useful to historians than historical drama? History Goes to the Movies considers that history is not simply to be found in films, but in the agreements and arguments of those who make and view them. Students will find this book an invaluable addition to their reading on both history and film studies courses.

Sceptical History Feminist and Postmodern Approaches in Practice Hélène Bowen Raddeker, University of New South Wales, Australia A highly original work in history and theory, this survey considers major themes including identity, class and sexual difference, weaves them into debates on the nature and point of history, and arrives at new ways of doing history that — very unusually — consider non-Western history and feminist approaches. Using a wide range of historical and cultural contexts, the study draws extensively on feminist scholarship, both feminist history and postcolonial feminism. Select Contents: Preliminaries. 1.

History Beyond the Text A Student’s Guide to Approaching Alternative Sources Edited by Sarah Barber and Corinna Peniston-Bird, both at University of Lancaster, UK Sources are the bedrock of history. But over the past few years the question of ‘what is a historical source’ has become an increasingly prominent concern. In History Beyond the Text, Sarah Barber and Corinna PenistonBird, open up the discussion on sources to those beyond the ‘traditional’ ones. Across thirteen chapters different historians look at a variety of alternative sources: visual — fine art, cartoons, photography, film and television; aural — music and oral testimony; literary — poetry, plays, novels; and physical — ephemera, architecture, and landscape, as well as virtual space. While the sources discussed are “interdisciplinary”, each contributor examines how the source can be approached from an historical perspective. Taking examples of sources from around the globe, this is the perfect companion for every student of history who wants to engage with sources.

The Nature of History Reader
New
Edited by Keith Jenkins and Alun Munslow
Researching History Education
In this timely collection, key pieces of writing by leading historians are reproduced and evaluated, with an explanation and critique of their character and assumptions, and how they reflect upon the nature of the history project. The authors respond to the view that the nature of history has become so disparate in assumption, approach and practice as to require an informed guide that is both self-reflexive, engaged, critical and innovative.
Theory, Method, and Context
This work aids a positive re-thinking of history today, and will be of use both to students and to their teachers. Series: Routledge Readers in History 2004: 368pp eBook: 978-0-203-00218-6 Hb: 978-0-415-24053-6: US $115.00 Pb: 978-0-415-24054-3: US $37.95 £6 0 5 0 .

Encyclopedia of the Cold War Edited by Ruud van Dijk, William Glenn Gray, Svetlana Savranskaya, Jeremi Suri and Qiang Zhai “This volume will be useful to libraries at all levels.” —T. M. Izbicki, Johns Hopkins University
Between 1945 and 1991, tension between the USA, its allies, and a group of nations led by the USSR, dominated world politics. This period was called the Cold War — a conflict that stopped short to a fullblown war. Benefiting from the recent research of newly open archives, the Encyclopedia of the Cold War discusses how this state of perpetual tensions arose, developed, and was resolved. This work examines the military, economic, diplomatic, and political evolution of the conflict as well as its impact on the different regions and cultures of the world. Using a unique geopolitical approach that will present Russian perspectives and others, the work covers all aspects of the Cold War, from communism to nuclear escalation and from UFOs to red diaper babies, highlighting its vast-ranging and lasting impact on international relations as well as on daily life. Although the work will focus on the 1945-1991 period, it will explore the roots of the conflict, starting with the formation of the Soviet state, and its legacy to the present day.

Editors: Michael S. Foley — Harvard University, USA, John McMillian — Harvard University, USA and Jeremy Varon — Drew University, USA No recent decade has been so powerfully transformative in the United States and much of the world as the 1960s. The era’s social movements - from civil rights, to feminism, student and youth protest, environmentalism, and nascent conservativism dramatically changed the political culture of the developed west. Meanwhile, the decade’s decolonization struggles altered the nature and balance of global power. In Communist Europe, incipient democracy movements set the stage for the revolutions that ended the Cold War. Collectively, these movements gave the 1960s their signal identity, and dominate understandings of their historical legacy. Whether in the United States, or across the globe, no recent decade has had such an enduring grip on politics, culture, and consciousness as the 1960s.
