Francis Parkman: France and England in North America Vol. 1 (LOA #11)
Author: Francis Parkman
Publisher: Library of America
ISBN: 9780940450103
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 1530
Book Description
This Library of America volume, along with its companion, presents, for the first time in compact form, all seven titles of Francis Parkman’s monumental account of France and England’s imperial struggle for dominance on the North American continent. Deservedly compared as a literary achievement to Gibbon’s The Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire, Parkman’s accomplishment is hardly less awesome than the explorations and adventures he so vividly describes. Pioneers of France in the New World (1865) begins with the early and tragic settlement of the French Huguenots in Florida, then shifts to the northern reaches of the continent and follows the expeditions of Samuel de Champlain up the St. Lawrence River and into the Great Lakes as he mapped the wilderness, organized the fur trade, promoted Christianity among the natives, and waged a savage forest campaign against the Iroquois. The Jesuits in North America in the Seventeenth Century (1867) traces the zealous efforts of the Jesuits and other Roman Catholic orders to convert the Native American tribes of North America. La Salle and the Discovery of the Great West (1869) records that explorer’s voyages on the Ohio and Mississippi Rivers and his treks, often alone, across the vast western prairies and through the labyrinthine swamps of Louisiana. The Old Régime in Canada (1874) recounts the political struggles among the religious sects, colonial officials, feudal chiefs, royal ministers, and military commanders of Canada. Their bitter fights over the monopoly of the fur trade, the sale of brandy to the natives, the importation of wives from the orphanages and poorhouses of France, and the bizarre fanaticism of religious extremists and their “incessant supernaturalism” animate this pioneering social history of early Canada. LIBRARY OF AMERICA is an independent nonprofit cultural organization founded in 1979 to preserve our nation’s literary heritage by publishing, and keeping permanently in print, America’s best and most significant writing. The Library of America series includes more than 300 volumes to date, authoritative editions that average 1,000 pages in length, feature cloth covers, sewn bindings, and ribbon markers, and are printed on premium acid-free paper that will last for centuries.

The Burning Solution

Publisher: Notion Press
ISBN: 1639575642
Category : Health & Fitness
Languages : en
Pages : 178
Book Description
Do heartburn, frequent burps and indigestion due to acidity make you feel anxious and helpless? Is medication becoming regular? Want to come out of this spiral? Acidity is by far the most misunderstood problem that others fail to empathize with. Unfortunately, it is also very commonly misdiagnosed due to symptoms like chronic cough, migraine, fluctuating blood pressure, dizziness and more. The natural food techniques discussed in this book by Nutritionist Nikhil Chaudhary are scientific and based on his experience with patients from across 5 continents and over 43 countries, all of whom benefitted from his advice. Most of them gave up medication in the first week itself. The commonly adopted methods and suggestions received online are exactly the opposite of what people should be doing and therefore never work for long term relief. Unfortunately, people undergoing treatments for ailments like cancer and infections as well have acidity as a side effect. This slows the treatment process and dampens their spirit to fight back. This book will be a huge benefit to these people as well. Pick this book up and empower yourself to break free from the clutches of unwanted sufferings. It is easier than you think and will be faster than you realize!
