Intersections between Jewish Studies and Habsburg Studies
In the aftermath of the Shoah and the ostensible triumph of nationalism, it became common in historiography to relegate Jews to the position of the “eternal other” in a series of binaries: Christian/Jewish, Gentile/Jewish, European/Jewish, non-Jewish/Jewish, and so forth. For the longest time, these binaries remained characteristic of Jewish historiography, including in the Central European context.

Developing Alberta's Oil Sands
Alberta's oil sands represent a vast and untapped oil reserve that could reasonably supply all of Canada's energy needs for the next 475 years. With an estimated 300 billion barrels of recoverable oil at stake, the quest to develop this natural resource has been undertaken by many powerful actors, both nationally and internationally. Using research that integrates the economic, political, scientific, and business factors that have been influential in discovering and developing the sands, this book provides a comprehensive history of the oil sands project and a window on the nature of the complex relationships between industry, government, and transnational players. This book is the first comprehensive volume that examines the origins and development of the oil sands industry over the last century.
Nine Years Among the Indians: 1870-1879
Herman Lehmann's 'Nine Years Among the Indians: 1870-1879' provides a compelling firsthand account of his experiences living among Native American tribes during a pivotal period in American history.

It serves as both a historical document and a gripping narrative that sheds light on a lesser-known aspect of American history. Herman Lehmann, a German American who w...
