Internaționala mea. Cronica unei vieți
Ion Ianoși reconstituie imaginea unei epoci zbuciumate, dar și traseul unui destin cultural mai puțin obișnuit. Titlul trimite, pe lângă opțiunea comunistă din tinerețe, la apartenența multiplă a autorului (evreu maghiar, vorbitor și de germană și rusă, dar care s-a afirmat profesând și scriind în limba română) și la sinuozitățile politicii secolului trecut. Printre numeroasele jurnale, un exercițiu de onestitate precum cel de față, completat cu bogate amănunte istorice, clarifică o parte din necunoscutele unui timp greu încercat.
Lawrence
Lawrence, Massachusetts is the first extensive photographic history of the city in over seventy-five years, and it offers more than two hundred fascinating images from the renowned Immigrant City Archives--many of them rare and previously unpublished. This fascinating visual history chronicles the growth of a city that began to rise from the plains of the Merrimack River in 1845. Conceived, financed, and managed by Yankee capitalists and designed to be a model town, Lawrence was among the earliest planned manufacturing communities in the country and it quickly became the largest woolen and worsted manufacturing center in the world. From the outset, Lawrence was the gateway to America for tho...

Segregation
When we talk about the Civil War, we often describe it in terms of battles that took place in small towns or in the countryside: Antietam, Gettysburg, Bull Run, and, most tellingly, the Battle of the Wilderness. One reason this picture has persisted is that few urban historians have studied the war, even though cities hosted, enabled, and shaped Southern society as much as they did in the North. Confederate Cities, edited by Andrew L. Slap and Frank Towers, shifts the focus from the agrarian economy that undergirded the South to the cities that served as its political and administrative hubs. The contributors use the lens of the city to examine now-familiar Civil War-era themes, including the scope of the war, secession, gender, emancipation, and war's destruction. This more integrative approach dramatically revises our understanding of slavery's relationship to capitalist economics and cultural modernity. By enabling a more holistic reading of the South, the book speaks to contemporary Civil War scholars and students alike-not least in providing fresh perspectives on a well-studied war.
