Pioneers of the Cleveland Iron Trade (Classic Reprint)
Author: J. S. Jeans
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781330643242
Category : Reference
Languages : en
Pages : 328
Book Description
Excerpt from Pioneers of the Cleveland Iron Trade The extraordinarily large and rapid growth of the Cleveland Iron Trade, and the vast population chiefly dependent upon it, has awakened an interest which extends beyond the district immediately concerned. The fact that the make of Cleveland Iron now amounts to 1,999,491 tons annually - being more than a third part of the whole make of England, and fully double the annual production of Scotland - invests it with a national importance. To supply some definite knowledge of the men who have created this great industry, is the purpose of this volume. The following chapters originally appeared as a series of articles in the Newcastle Weekly Chronicle, and a strong desire was expressed by many to possess them in a more permanent and convenient shape.

A Patriot's History of the United States
Author: Larry Schweikart
Publisher: Penguin
ISBN: 1101217782
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 1373
Book Description
For the past three decades, many history professors have allowed their biases to distort the way America’s past is taught. These intellectuals have searched for instances of racism, sexism, and bigotry in our history while downplaying the greatness of America’s patriots and the achievements of “dead white men.” As a result, more emphasis is placed on Harriet Tubman than on George Washington; more about the internment of Japanese Americans during World War II than about D-Day or Iwo Jima; more on the dangers we faced from Joseph McCarthy than those we faced from Josef Stalin. A Patriot’s History of the United States corrects those doctrinaire biases. In this groundbreaking book, America’s discovery, founding, and development are reexamined with an appreciation for the elements of public virtue, personal liberty, and private property that make this nation uniquely successful. This book offers a long-overdue acknowledgment of America’s true and proud history.
