2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Famed for the accuracy of their astronomy and the sophistication of their measurement of time, the ancient Mayan civilization has been recognized as one of the most important ever to have existed. According to recently decoded stone monuments and manuscripts the Mayans believed a cataclysmic change will affect the planet on 22 December 2012.On this date the fifth great cycle of time which began on August 11th 3113 BCE will come to a violent end. In this comprehensive book, expert author David Douglas presents compelling evidence for the accuracy of the Mayan calendar in predicting major events in world history and examines the latest scientific research that suggests events such as magnetic field changes and solar flares will indeed culminate in 2012, events which could result in catastrophe for our planet.

The Mayor of Aihara: A Japanese Villager and His Community, 1865-1925

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Aizawa Kikutaro (1866-1963) was born into the wealthiest family in Hashimoto, a small agricultural village specializing in wheat and silk. By 1925, the village was undergoing rapid commercial development, residents were commuting to factory and office jobs in cities, and, after serving as mayor for almost twenty years, Aizawa was working as a bank manager. Taking the biography of this leading villager as its central focus and incorporating intimate details of life drawn from Aizawa`s diary, The Mayor of Aihara chronicles the extraordinary transformation of Hashimoto against the background of Japan`s rapid industrialization. By portraying history as it was actually lived by ordinary people, the book offers a rich and compelling perspective on the modernization of Japan. [detailed...]

Thomas Hardy
The Mayor of Casterbridge (Oxford World`s Classics)

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Set against the backdrop of peaceful south-west England, where Thomas Hardy spent much of his youth, The Mayor of Casterbridge captures the author`s unique genius for depicting the absurdity underlying much of the sorrow and humor in our lives. Michael Henchard is an out-of-work hay-trusser who gets drunk at a local fair and impulsively sells his wife Susan and baby daughter. Eighteen years later Susan and her daughter seek him out, only to discover that he has become the most prominent man in Casterbridge. Henchard attempts to make amends for his youthful misdeeds but his unchanged impulsiveness clouds his relationships in love as well as his fortunes in business. Although Henchard is fated to be a modern-day tragic hero, unable to survive in the new commercial world, his story is also a journey towards love. This edition is the only critically established text of the novel, based on a comprehensive study of the manuscript and Hardy`s extensive revisions. [detailed...]

Thomas Hardy
The Mayor of Casterbridge

2001 y.
Publisher: Wordsworth Editions Limited
Description: None of the great Victorian novels is more vivid and readable than The Mayor of Casterbridge. Set in the heart of Hardy`s Wessex, the `partly real, partly dream country` he founded on his native Dorset, it charts the rise and self-induced downfall of a single `man of character`. The fast-moving and ingeniously contrived narrative is Shakespearian in its tragic force, and features some of the author`s most striking episodes and brilliant passages of description.

Description: Book DescriptionA new edition of the definitive history of mayoral power and influence in Chicago The Mayors: The Chicago Political Tradition taps America?s most qualified observers to scrupulously assess the city?s mayors within the vigorous and tumultuous history of Chicago government. This revised and updated edition features extensive commentary on the enduring mayoral influence of Richard M. Daley. `In the seventeen years since The Mayors was first published,` editors Paul M. Green and Melvin G. Holli write in the Preface to this edition, `Chicago politics has become more genteel, more docile, and more predictable. This dampening of the city?s once red-hot political coals is due to domination by one man: Mayor Richard M. Daley.` Also providing a political roadmap through the complex and fascinating labyrinth of Chicago politics are essays on other recent mayors: Richard J. Daley, Michael A. Bilandic, Jane M. Byrne, and Harold Washington. Green and… [detailed...]

The Maze: Donovan Wylie

2004 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionFor nearly 30 years, the Maze prison, 10 miles outside Belfast, played a unique role in the Northern Ireland Troubles. Built in 1976 to house terrorist prisoners, political segregation was so fierce it led to scenes of violent protests, hunger strikes, mass escapes, and deaths of both inmates and prison staff. At its peak capacity in the 1980s, the Maze housed more than 1,700 prisoners. In September 2000, under the terms of the Good Friday agreement, the prison was closed and the last four inmates were transferred to other prisons in Northern Ireland. Now, a handful of prison officers man the empty complex while the future of the site is debated. The prison?s current state of limbo and the unanswered questions regarding its fate seemto reflect Northern Ireland?s unsteady progress in grappling with its recent history. Last year, the Northern Ireland Prison Service gave Donovan Wylie exclusive and unprecedented permission to photograph the entire prison complex… [detailed...]

Description: Book Description In the summer of 1922, after a series of decisive defeats at the hands of the Turks, the Greek army is in retreat from Asia Minor. Thousands of soldiers sweep toward the Mediterranean coast, leaving behind their dead, their dreams ofempire . . . and one lost brigade, wandering in the Anatolian desert under a seemingly inexpiable curse. As their leader slips further and further into morphine-dulled despair, with no hope of escape for his troops, morale crumbles among the officers. Communist leaflets appear mysteriously every morning in the camp. A rash of thefts goes unsolved. And each man`s thoughts turn, more and more often, to a single unspeakable act committed by the brigade in a moment of desperation. At first the men`s luck seems to change when they stumble on a town-a Greek settlement untouched by the war, where the mayor and the schoolteacher are in fierce competition for the favors of the local courtesan, and a young, failed newspaper correspondent… [detailed...]
