James F. Jaquess
Author: Patricia B. Burnette
Publisher: McFarland
ISBN: 0786473584
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 207
Book Description
Tall, handsome and charismatic, James Jaquess impressed men and charmed ladies who knew him as a preacher, a college president or colonel of an Illinois regiment. In 1864 he and James Gilmore talked to Jefferson Davis about terms of peace. Lincoln recognized his many abilities and invited Jaquess to serve as one of his personal agents. But after the Civil War ended, this biography reveals, Jaquess' life changed for the worse. He was tried in Kentucky for the death of a woman and failed as a carpetbagger in Arkansas and Mississippi. Then he convinced his family and friends in Indiana and numerous residents of New York to invest in Lawrence-Townley bonds and share in a fortune waiting in England. This venture ended in poverty for him and a sentence in a British prison. When he returned to America for his final years, Jaquess still held the respect of the men of the 73rd Infantry and the affection of the women who knew him as president of their college in Jacksonville. His misadventures having turned his black hair to white, he still possessed the charisma that had led to his national fame.

Commonwealth of Compromise
Author: Amy Laurel Fluker
Publisher: University of Missouri Press
ISBN: 0826274447
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 282
Book Description
In this important new contribution to the historical literature, Amy Fluker offers a history of Civil War commemoration in Missouri, shifting focus away from the guerrilla war and devoting equal attention to Union, African American, and Confederate commemoration. She provides the most complete look yet at the construction of Civil War memory in Missouri, illuminating the particular challenges that shaped Civil War commemoration. As a slaveholding Union state on the Western frontier, Missouri found itself at odds with the popular narratives of Civil War memory developing in the North and the South. At the same time, the state’s deeply divided population clashed with one another as they tried to find meaning in their complicated and divisive history. As Missouri’s Civil War generation constructed and competed to control Civil War memory, they undertook a series of collaborative efforts that paved the way for reconciliation to a degree unmatched by other states. Acts of Civil War commemoration have long been controversial and were never undertaken for objective purposes, but instead served to transmit particular values to future generations. Understanding this process lends informative context to contemporary debates about Civil War memory.

Civil Procedure in Focus
Author: W. Jeremy Counseller
Publisher: Aspen Publishing
ISBN:
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 810
Book Description
The reader-friendly approach of this casebook provides a hands-on, experiential learning environment that can be essential to many students’ success. Simply knowing the facts of a benchmark case is not enough; knowing how to apply the doctrine from one case to a different set of facts enhances a student’s ability to succeed in and after law school. With the practice-based exercises in every chapter, students learn to apply legal principles and concepts to real-world scenarios. Key Features: • Case Previews and Post-Case Follow-Ups. To succeed, law students must know how to deconstruct and analyze cases. Case Previews highlight the legal concepts in a case before the student reads it. Post-Case Follow-Ups summarize the important points and ramifications but also goes one step further, noting the significance of a case to current law. • Real Life Applications. Every case in a chapter is followed by Real Life Applications, which present a scenario similar to the facts in the case followed by a series of related questions. Real Life Applications challenge students to apply what they have learned and help prepare them for real-world practice. Professors can use Real Life Applications to spark class discussions or use them as individual short-answer assignments. • Applying the Concepts and Civil Procedure in Practice. These end-of-chapter exercises encourage students to synthesize chapter material and apply relevant legal doctrine and code to real-world scenarios. Students can use these exercises for self-assessment, or the professor can use them to promote class interaction. New to the Third Edition: • Current issues regarding generative AI as it relates to Rule 11 and Discovery. • The COVID-19 Pandemic’s effects on litigation. • An explanation of the U.S. Supreme Court’s latest Personal Jurisdiction cases. • A discussion of Snap Removal. Professors and students will benefit from: • Explanatory text on the key concepts, allowing professors to spend more class time on application of the concepts rather than explanation of basic doctrine • Essay, short answer, and multiple-choice questions in every chapter, along with model answers in the teacher’s manual for each question. • Exhibits containing the relevant constitutional, statutory, or rule text. • Case Previews and Follow-ups that help to frame the key issues in the case and discussion of how the holdings have developed in subsequent cases
