Book Description
A New York Times-bestselling author explains how the physical world shaped the history of our species When we talk about human history, we often focus on great leaders, population forces, and decisive wars. But how has the earth itself determined our destiny? Our planet wobbles, driving changes in climate that forced the transition from nomadism to farming. Mountainous terrain led to the development of democracy in Greece. Atmospheric circulation patterns later on shaped the progression of global exploration, colonization, and trade. Even today, voting behavior in the south-east United States ultimately follows the underlying pattern of 75 million-year-old sediments from an ancient sea. Everywhere is the deep imprint of the planetary on the human. From the cultivation of the first crops to the founding of modern states, Origins reveals the breathtaking impact of the earth beneath our feet on the shape of our human civilizations.

Pages : 142
Book Description
John C. Enoch was born in 1859 in Champaign County, Ohio, near the town of West Liberty. When he was eleven years old, John's parents, William D. and Ann Eliza Enoch, moved the family to Coshocton, Ohio. In 1879 John married Emma Shaw of Coshoction. In about 1888, they moved to Mt. Sterling, Kentucky, where John opened a general merchandise store-Enoch's Bargain House. Shortly thereafter he started a factory manufacturing fiber lunch boxes-the Novelty Lunch Box Co. This successful business expanded into the manufacture of cotton jersey work gloves. The glove business flourished until it was sold in 1956. John died unexpectedly in 1910 of blood poisoning following an operation. This work tells the story of John and his family in letters and other documents and includes detailed genealogical charts of his ancestors and descendants.
Kentucky Justice, Southern Honor, and American Manhood
Author: James C. KlotterPublisher: LSU Press

Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 220
Book Description
When attorney John Jay Cornelison severely beat Kentucky Superior Court judge Richard Reid in public on April 16, 1884, for allegedly injuring his honor, the event became front-page news. Would Reid react as a Christian gentleman, a man of the law, and let the legal system take its course, or would he follow the manly dictates of the code of honor and challenge his assailant? James C. Klotter crafts a detective story, using historical, medical, legal, and psychological clues to piece together answers to the tragedy that followed. “This book is a gem. . . . Klotter’s astute organization and gripping narrative add to the book’s appeal. . . . [He] has written a fascinating book that will be of interest to a wide audience.” —American Historical Review “A moving story well told, it does force the reader to reflect on our own era and consider whether we value leaders who respect the rule of law or those who believe that honor demands swift and bloody vengeance no matter the costs.” —Ohio Valley History “A rich and compelling work that offers fresh insights into the tense interplay among religion, law, and honor in the American South.” —Register of the Kentucky Historical Society
