Henry VIII: Man and Monarch

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: The year 2009 marks the 500th anniversary of Henry VIII’s accession to the throne, and to celebrate this momentous occasion, leading Tudor scholars David Starkey and Susan Doran examine the extraordinary transformations—personal and political, intellectual and religious, literary, aesthetic, and linguistic—that took place during Henry’s reign. Drawing on the British Library’s unparalleled collections, Henry VIII explores the motives and beliefs that spurred Henry’s actions, masterfully telling the story of his reign. This refreshing approach reaches beyond the myths and stereotypes surrounding this monumental historical figure and encourages readers to reassess their perceptions of the great Tudor monarch who still manages to cast a spell over our imaginations. Richly illustrated with color images from the accompanying exhibition at the British Library—including many of Henry’s own annotated volumes—and including contributions from notable scholars such as Eamon Duffy and James… [detailed...]

1992 y.
Publisher: Dover Publications
Description: Henry Wadsworth Longfellow was the most popular American poet of his time, and one of the most famous American poets of all time. It has been said that certain of his poems-the long narratives Evangeline and The Song of Hiawatha most notably-were once read in every literate home in America.

Daniel S. Margolies
Henry Watterson And the New South: The Politics of Empire, Free Trade, And Globalization (Topics in Kentucky History)

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Henry Watterson (1840-1921), editor of the Louisville Courier-Journal from the 1860s through WWI, was one of the most important and widely read newspaper editors in American history. An influential New South supporter of sectional reconciliation and economic development, Watterson was also the nation`s premier advocate of free trade and globalization. Watterson`s vision of a prosperous and independent South within an expanding American empire was unique among prominent Southerners and Democrats. He helped articulate the bipartisan embrace of globalization that accompanied America`s rise to unmatched prosperity and world power. Daniel S. Margolies restores Watterson to his place at the heart of late nineteenth-century southern and American history by combining biographical narrative with an evaluation of Watterson`s unique involvement in the politics of free trade and globalization.

Henry Wessel
Henry Wessel: California And the West, Odd Photos, Las Vegas, Real Estate Photographs, Night Walk

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: The photographs in these five books represent a sustained effort to describe the contemporary vernacular landscape of Southern California and the American West. From his early work in the 1970s to his most recent series in Las Vegas (2000-2004), Wessel`s wit and insight illuminate a world rich in nuance, humor, and irony. For the past 30 years, Henry Wessel has observed and recorded the unusual and the iconic, framed and formed by the light and landscape of the West. Photographing the endless vanishing points of a desert road in black-and-white or an opulent, gilded hotel corridor in Las Vegas, Wessel finds in each a metaphor for the region where people go to vanish, to assume new identities. Anonymous houses, sculptural cacti, and beachgoers in Waikiki are captured in all their sphinx-like inscrutability. Slipcased, 10 x 9.5 in./154 pgs / 56 color. [detailed...]

Henry Wilson: Practical Idealist

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Henry Wilson (1864 - 1934) worked in a highly individual style, uniting influences from the Arts &, Crafts Movement and Art Nouveau with his own interpretation of traditional forms, symbols and nature. This book discusses examples of his work throughout the UK and in North America, where he designed the bronze entrance doors for a leading Boston tea importer and the great West doors of the Cathedral of St. John the Divine, New York. Of equal impact were his exhibition designs, and his influential teaching at the Royal College of Art, at the Central School of Arts and Crafts, and at the Vittoria Street School for Silversmiths and Jewellers in Birmingham. He began his career as Chief Assistant to the Gothic Revival architect J. D. Sedding, but felt increasingly drawn to the associated arts: church furnishings, sculpture, metalworking and jewellery. His remarkable achievements in these fields range from the breathtaking green marble fittings of St. Bartholomews Church in Brighton, to the… [detailed...]

Henry and Edsel: The Creation of the Ford Empire

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: An Epic Battle of Generations It is commonly believed that Henry Ford was a dynamic, innovative visionary who ran his company with an iron hand and an eye to the future?while his son Edsel was a weak, if dutiful, heir and an uninspired manager, who followed his father?s orders. Henry and Edsel, the first biography to focus on both father and son, turns that common belief on its ear. Offering a daring new perspective on the human drama that changed the shape of Ford Motor company, author Richard Bak explores the ongoing friction between Henry and Edsel over adapting to a changing competitive environment and lays bare the stark contrasts between the two men. Henry emerges as a complex and self-contradictory man who was not entirelycomfortable in the new world that he had done so much to create, while Edsel is revealed as a gifted, levelheaded, and imaginative businessman with a keen sense of where the market was headed. Among the many issues examined in this… [detailed...]

Hepatobiliary and Pancreatic Carcinogenesis in the Hamster

Description: The carcinogenic mechanism of hepatobiliary and pancreatic tumors is still poorly understood, making the development of rational treatment strategies difficult. The Syrian hamster is a unique animal for studying these neoplasms because the anatomical structure of its hepatobiliary and pancreatic duct system is similar to that of humans. The tumors induced in the liver, biliary tract, and pancreas of hamsters with nitrosamines closely resemble those of humans and are ideal for investigating carcinogenic mechanisms. For the first time in book form, methods for the successful induction of hepatobiliary and pancreatic tumors in hamsters are explained, as are the surgical techniques for preparing animal models, the histopathological characteristics of the induced tumors, and chemoprevention. The hamster models of in vivo and in vitro tumorigenesis presented here will be a source of useful knowledge for basic researchers as well as for clinicians involved in the care of patients with… [detailed...]
