My father, who was well-known to the best circles in this kingdom under the name of roaring Harry James, was killed in a duel, when I was fifteen years old. EXT. GARDEN - DAY Mrs. James, talking with a suitor; Roderick, at a distance. RODERICK (V.O.) My mother, after her husband's death, and her retirement, lived in such a way as to defy slander.

In searching for an explanation of the tragic dissolution, thoughtful ob- servers looked at the political and philosophical bases of the nation's structure. They found that the controversial ques- tion of the autonomy of the states and the concept of liberty that had evolved offered a partial answer to the question. They examined the economic order and realized that be- tween a commercial-industrial section and one that was pre- dominantly agricultural there was basis for conflict. They looked into the structure of society in the two sections and concluded that there were inherent conflicts between that committed to the view that universal freedom was the proper foundation for improving the social order and the other that insisted that its half-free, half-slave society needed only to be left alone. continued to Questions of how and why the war came have baffle the minds of men in the generations since 1861. A notable lack of agreement, except on the point of the almost accumulation of hopeless complexity, and the remarkable have been details regarding the course of events prior to 1861 the most impressive results.

  • Community, Honor, and Secession in the Deep South : Mississippi's
    COMMUNITY, HONOR, AND SECESSION IN THE DEEP SOUTH: MISSISSIPPI’S POLITICAL CULTURE, 1840s-1861 By CHRISTOPHER JOHN OLSEN A DISSERTATION PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I am grateful to acknowledge the assistance and support of many people during the completion of this project. In Jackson I owe a great debt to the staff of the Department of Archives and History who patiently found large boxes of manuscript election returns, sometimes more than once, and helped me with innumerable strange requests. In particular I would like to thank Victor and Tina Bailey for all their hospitality during my several trips to their city. Thanks also to those in the microfilm department and interlibrary loan office at the University of Florida. Their professionalism and diligence helped make a lengthy process less stressful. Several people have read earlier versions of one or more chapters and I appreciate their willingness to sacrifice the time and energy to do so. Jeffrey Adler and Jeffrey Needed read every chapter and offered both shrewd criticism and encouragement; their eagerness to wade through rough drafts was especially helpful. Also to Richard K. Scher, whose insight and congenial interest helped guide me through the waters of political theory. Thanks to Christopher Morris of the University of Texas-Arlington, whose comments often helped me to take a step back and see the big picture more clearly. Thank you to Kenneth Winkle of the University of Nebraska, who taught me how to exploit the computer and made some of the analysis in chapter 4 possible.

    CURSE OF THE FORBIDDEN FRUIT: SOUTHERN OPPOSITION DURING THE MEXICAN WAR ERA, 1835-1850 By BRETT RICHARD BELL A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY WASHINGTON STATE UNIVERSITY Department of History MAY 2015 © Copyright by BRETT RICHARD BELL, 2015 All Rights Reserved © Copyright by BRETT RICHARD BELL, 2015 All Rights Reserved To the Faculty of Washington State University: The members of the Committee appointed to examine the dissertation of BRETT RICHARD BELL find it satisfactory and recommend that it be accepted. __________________________________________ Jennifer Thigpen, Ph.D., Chair ___________________________________________ Susan Peabody, Ph.D. __________________________________________ Lawrence Hatter, Ph.D. ii CURSE OF THE FORBIDDEN FRUIT: SOUTHERN OPPOSITION DURING THE MEXICAN WAR ERA, 1835-1850 Abstract by Brett Richard Bell, Ph.D. Washington State University May 2015 Chair: Jennifer Thigpen This study examines southern opposition to the Mexican War. The story of such opposition is essential to a complete understanding of the Mexican War and the growing sectional conflict in the late antebellum period. It illustrates that much more opposition existed to the war in the South than is commonly thought. Nonetheless, southern war opponents failed to restrict the grand strategy of the Polk administration or shorten the length of the conflict. The main reason they failed in these goals stemmed from the inability of northern and southern opponents to work together to form and sustain a national antiwar movement. Southern war opponents firmly supported slavery and southern honor, and northern opponents did not, and this fissure doomed opposition in both sections. Almost all southerners committed themselves to defending slavery and southern honor – twin pillars which provided southerners with their very identities as free-American citizens – at all costs.

The Kingdom of the West in the Society for Creative Anachronism is real. Chapter 1 One Damn Thing After Another The cross-shaped eyeslit framed the image of a knight in a glittering helm, his black surcote embroidered with silver crescents. His white destrier pawed the ground with an ivory forehoof and tossed its head. Sir Mary de Courcy licked her lips. The knight's long lance centered the cross as a tiny disk, for it was pointed straight at her head. His first mistake. Below the eyeslit a dozen small holes let in air, never enough and cleverly scented with dust and horse. Mary sucked in a deep breath and let it out again; from a long way away she could feel her heart pounding.
