Encyclopedia of Appalachia

ISBN:
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 1852
Book Description
"The Encyclopedia details subjects traditionally associated with Appalachia - folklore, handcrafts, mountain music, food, and coal mining - but goes far beyond regional stereotypes to treat such wide-ranging topics as the aerospace industry, Native American foodways, ethnic diversity in the coalfields, education reform, linguistic variation, and the contested notion of what it means to be Appalachian, both inside and outside the region." "Researched and developed by the Center for Appalachian Studies and Services at East Tennessee State University, this 1,864-page compendium includes all thirteen states that constitute the northern, central, and southern subregions of Appalachia - from New York to Mississippi. With entries on everything from Adventists to zinc mining, the Encyclopedia of Appalachia is a one-stop guide to all things Appalachian."--BOOK JACKET.

Book Description
Ancient, yet modern: that is the sobering truth of slavery. Author Junius P. Rodriguez describes slavery as "a dark mirror reflecting man's inhumanity to man". The Chronology of World Slavery traces the course of events, both great and small, that have defined the meaning of slavery throughout history. Unprecedented in scope and approach, the Chronology features: -- Seven separate chronologies covering major world regions and eras -- 128 sidebars, each with its own bibliography, written by 44 eminent scholars -- 80 primary source documents from diverse time periods -- 120 black-and-white illustrations and 5 maps -- Preface, introduction, and general index Chronology of World Slavery is the ideal companion to The Historical Encyclopedia of World Slavery and shares that publication's distinguished editorial board. Together, these works span all world cultures and time periods to examine humankind's most perplexing -- and persistent -- historical issue.
