Book Description
Excerpt from The Tiffanys of America: History and Genealogy Craving your indulgence for the shortcomings which I fully appreciate are to be found in this volume, and hoping it will form the groundwork for a full and complete history of the Tiffany family, to be compiled by some later generation, I subscribe myself.

The Negro in Virginia
Author: Publisher: Blair
ISBN: 9780895871190
Category : African Americans
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Slavery is as basic a part of Virginia history as George Washington, who was accompanied at Valley Forge and Yorktown by his slave William Lee, and Thomas Jefferson, who directed his slaves to cut 30 feet off a mountaintop for the site of Monticello. Slavery in the Old Dominion began in 1619, when a Spanish frigate was captured and its cargo of Negroes brought to Jamestown. Virginia Negroes experienced slavery as field laborers, as skilled craftsmen, as house servants. In 1935, the Virginia Writers' Project began collecting data for a history of Negroes in the Old Dominion through the Civil War, Reconstruction, and the Depression. Published in 1940 as "The Negro in Virginia", it was regarded as a "classic of its kind." Modern readers will be surprised at how relevant it remains today. -- From publisher's description.

The Cambridge History of War: Volume 2, War and the Medieval World
Author: David A. GraffPublisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 1108901190
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 865
Book Description
Volume II of The Cambridge History of War covers what in Europe is commonly called 'the Middle Ages'. It includes all of the well-known themes of European warfare, from the migrations of the Germanic peoples and the Vikings through the Reconquista, the Crusades and the age of chivalry, to the development of state-controlled gunpowder-wielding armies and the urban militias of the later middle ages; yet its scope is world-wide, ranging across Eurasia and the Americas to trace the interregional connections formed by the great Arab conquests and the expansion of Islam, the migrations of horse nomads such as the Avars and the Turks, the formation of the vast Mongol Empire, and the spread of new technologies – including gunpowder and the earliest firearms – by land and sea.
