An American in Vienna
Andy Bishops quest begins promisingly when he leaves Columbus, Ohio, in 1914 after graduating from the University of Notre Dame. In Austria-Hungary, his goals are threefold: make contact with distant Austrian relatives, practice his nascent journalistic skills, and discover why his aristocratic ancestor, Matthias zu Windischgrtz, immigrated to America so long ago. The scenery changes drastically as Andy witnesses the last stand of imperial Austrian society. He arrives just three weeks before the assassination of the Kaisers nephew, the Habsburg Archduke Franz Ferdinand, and his wife, Sophie. This event sparks the fateful slide toward world war and chaos for both family and friends. Andys fateful decision to remain in the doomed Habsburg Empire after the war beginsand his irresistible attraction to a young Austrian countesslead him to Budapest, Rome, and finally Paris, as Europe is convulsed by the greatest war since the defeat of Napoleon. Told from the perspective of Andy Bishop, An American in Vienna presents historical insight into the Austrian court, royal society, and the demise of a once-powerful empire as it becomes embroiled in the Great War.
A Cost Analysis of Chip Manufacture at Hardwood Sawmills
Because of the growing need for wood fiber in the pulp and paper industry there is an opportunity for sawmill operators to increase their income by converting hardwwood sawmill residues (slabs, edgings, and trim) to pulp chips. By selling wood chips and reducing residue-disposal costs, sawmills could improve their utilization of sawlogs. But to justify the installation of debarking and chipping machines, and to know what such machines could contribute to his business, the sawmill owner must have a thorough understanding of the costs involved in chip production. To help him in this we have made case studies of seven sawmills in southeastern Ohio, eastern Kentucky, and Tennessee, and have analyzed all the factos of cost involved in chip production.
Double Emperor
For forty-three years, Francis I of Austria ruled a vast heterogenous Empire that came to dominate the continent of Europe. Ascending Charlemagne’s thousand-year throne of the Holy Roman Empire at the age of twenty-four on the unexpected death of his father, this scion of the ancient Habsburg dynasty became the first Emperor of Austria and for two years, the only Double Emperor in history. Both the father in law of Napoleon Bonaparte and his chief rival for dominance of the continent of Europe, Francis eventually led a coalition of nations to Paris in 1814 and sent Napoleon into exile. The exiled Napoleon’s only son and heir lived with his grandfather thereafter in Vienna until his tragi...

New Approach Methods in Immunology
Currently, the assessment of functional immunological relevance is mainly done in animal models. Motivation to work on non-animal methods, or new approach methods (NAM), stems from economical and ethical considerations, and is supported by public pressure. Importantly, the translational gap between results obtained in animal studies and clinical trials in humans (the ‘valley of death’), combined with the reproducibility crisis in science, also provide strong scientific arguments to work on novel, robust, human-based methodology. The field of immunology confronts NAM scientists with specific challenges. Firstly, immunological responses require several cell types in different locations for...
Where the Wild Animals is Plentiful
"Elisa Moore Baldwin provides an introduction that traces Jordan family history and describes economic, social, and political conditions during the period. Because few first-person accounts exist of the life of poor whites, this diary will be invaluable to students of southern and women's history; no comparable work exists for this part of Alabama during this era."--BOOK JACKET.
Land of Oppression Instead of Land of Opportunity
Land of Oppression Instead of Land of Opportunity, was written to enlighten the American public about the responsibility of government; how Franklin D. Roosevelt had proposed the Second Bill of Rights yet they never were implemented; how our own government is now being controlled by the very wealthy and tuning our democracy into a powerful money-controlled Oligarchy; how the American Constitution is continually being desecrated when it is supposed to be defended since it is the enshrined supreme law of the land, and finally, forty suggestions addressing what has taken place and addressing what needs to be changed to bring the government back to the respectful organization portrayed by the Constitution and the re-installment of stolen civil liberties (which were once guaranteed by the Bill of Rightsfirst ten amendments of the Constitution).
