Treutlen County
Treutlen County, Georgia, lies between the Oconee River on its western boundary and the Ohoopee River on the northeast. Stately southern pines and majestic oaks grow on the gently rolling hills of this picturesque county, located on the coastal plains of southern Georgia. Fertile farmlands, dense pine forests, and major transportation routes provide an economic vibrance, which fosters the countys development. Images of America: Treutlen County is an intriguing collection of vintage images that portray the countys people, places, and significant events, including early pioneers, their modes of transportation, life at work and at home, places of worship, and their sources for entertainment. Historic scenes of the bustling Treutlen County community, including the villages of Lothair, Orland, Orianna, Zaidee, and Blackville, and the town of Soperton, which serves as Treutlens county seat, are found throughout these pages. The countys beautiful fields and forests, and its mineral springs and rivers have tied together the exuberance and vitality of the county down through the years.
Cecil Rhodes and the Cape Afrikaners
This study of the relationship between Cecil Rhodes and the Cape Afrikaners fills many gaps in his political biography. Previous biographers have rarely consulted the abundant Cape Afrikaner sources that this book refers to and which contribute to a better understanding of Rhodes' political career. Rhodes, who appeared on the political scene of the Cape Colony in the 1880s, played an important role in the shaping of the political outlook of the Cape Afrikaners during the last two decades of the century.
Lucy to Language
This volume readdresses the past contribution from archaeology towards the study of evolutionary issues, and ties evolutionary psychology into the extensive historical data from the past, allowing us to escape the confined timeframe of the comparatively recent human mind and explore the question of just what it is that makes us so different.
Beware Euphoria
George Fisher seeks the moral roots of America's antidrug regime and challenges claims that early antidrug laws arose from racial animus. Those moral roots trace to early Christian sexual strictures, which later influenced Puritan condemnations of drunkenness, and ultimately shaped the early American drug war. Early laws against opium dens, cocaine, and cannabis rarely rose from racial strife, but sprang from the traditional moral censure of intoxication and perceived threats to respectable white women and youth. The book closes with an examination of cannabis legalization, driven in part by the movement for racial justice.
