Speech of John Allen, Esqr. in the House of Representatives, Friday, the 20th Day of April, 1798. Relative to Employing the Armed Vessels as Convoys
The 18th century was a wealth of knowledge, exploration and rapidly growing technology and expanding record-keeping made possible by advances in the printing press. In its determination to preserve the century of revolution, Gale initiated a revolution of its own: digitization of epic proportions to preserve these invaluable works in the largest archive of its kind. Now for the first time these high-quality digital copies of original 18th century manuscripts are available in print, making them highly accessible to libraries, undergraduate students, and independent scholars.

Topologies of Power
Topologies of Power amounts to a radical departure in the way that power and space have been understood. It calls into question the very idea that power is simply extended across a given territory or network, and argues that power today has a new found ‘reach’. Topological shifts have subtly altered the reach of power, enabling governments, corporations and NGOs alike to register their presence through quieter, less brash forms of power than domination or overt control. In a world in which proximity and distance increasingly play across one another, topology offers an insight into how power remains continuous under transformation: the same but different in its ability to shape peoples’ lives. Drawing upon a range of political, economic and cultural illustrations, the book sets out a clear and accessible account of the topological workings of power in the contemporary moment. It will be invaluable for both students and academics in human geography, politics, sociology, and cultural studies.

John Allen and His Friends (Classic Reprint)
Excerpt from John Allen and His Friends At my friend's request, I prefix to this very interesting book these few lines of hearty commendation. I never met Archdeacon Allen personally, and only became acquainted with his widow and daughters after his death. My particular friendship was with Miss May Allen, the well-known and highly esteemed missionary of the U.M.C.A. at Zanzibar, who in later years worked under Bishop Blyth in Palestine and Egypt. To her the Archdeacon, in earlier days, addressed the letters printed in Chapter XXV. The book is not a biography in the ordinary sense. The title is rightly John Allen and his Friends, as the "Friends," from Tennyson and Fitzgerald and Thackeray to...
