To overcome the prevailing isolationist viewpoint, FDR educated the people of the immoral character of Nazi Germany and provided necessary understanding of unfolding events. He generated sufficient public support to provide legitimacy for his actions in mobilizing the nation and engaging in an undeclared war in the North Atlantic.

  • Florida Historical Quarterly
    COVER A typical summer Sunday afternoon at Jacksonville Beach during the early 1930s. Promoted as the “World’s Finest Beach,” visitors came from all over Florida and Georgia. Forty miles long and 600 feet wide, the hard-packed white sand made the beach a “mecca of autoists,” and it was said that some- times as many as 15,000 cam were parked there on a weekend. Originally called Pablo Beach, the community was established by the Jacksonville and Atlantic Railroad in 1884. Murray Hall, an enormous wood- frame hotel with accommodations for 350 guests, was completed two years later. It was one of the South’s most popular seaside resorts until it was destroyed by fire in 1890. It had attracted many visitors to the beach com- munity. This photograph is from the collection of Mr. Richard Martin of Jack- sonville.

  • Echoes in the Forest
    Echoes in the Forest While hiking through an ancient wood, we came upon a heap of stone and there beyond - a fading shape swallowed by the mossy loam. Here, we paused upon our journey to contemplate and rest, when the whispers of a haunting wind seemed to answer our inquest. There was a time – a distant time field and farm spread out before us, while a song of life and love and strife was sung in human chorus -- a song of children playing, of farmers in the field, of women in the kitchen -- a song thought not to yield. But t’ was a melody in passing now no children left to play and field returned to forest once the farmer went away. The winds of time blow ever softly as they carry off the chorus, leaving remnants of that distant time like Echoes in the Forest. DK Young Stratton Families Preface Like the farm in the verse, so went most of Stratton’s homesteads – abandoned to the forest – destined to fade away beneath the mossy loam. Of course, nature has not yet reconquered all of Stratton. While no true farms remain in this town and only a scant few landowners have held back forest from field, the population of the town has rebounded, but to the tune of another lifestyle – another time. The following pages address the majority of Stratton’s inhabitants from its beginnings to the early part of the twentieth century; also many of the more recent resident families are detailed, if they wished to be included here.

  • Captives of the Dark and Bloody Ground: Identity, Race, and Power in the Contested American South
    CAPTIVES OF THE DARK AND BLOODY GROUND: IDENTITY, RACE, AND POWER IN THE CONTESTED AMERICAN SOUTH Christina Nicole Snyder A dissertation submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of History. Chapel Hill 2007 Approved by: Michael D. Green Theda Perdue Kathleen A. DuVal Vincas P. Steponaitis Harry L. Watson ©2007 Christina Nicole Snyder ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Christina Snyder, “Captives of the Dark and Bloody Ground: Identity, Race, and Power in the Contested American South” (Under the direction of Michael Green and Theda Perdue) In this dissertation, I use the lens of captivity to explore how Native Southerners defined themselves and the other. Before they encountered one another in the colonial era, the peoples of Africa, Europe, and North America considered enslavement a legitimate fate for captured enemy peoples, though their attitudes about the status and roles of captives differed. In the South during the colonial and early national periods, violent conflict often erupted as Indian nations labored to maintain their territorial integrity and political autonomy, Euro-Americans desired to control Indian land and African labor, and Africans sought freedom. During such episodes, Native groups took enemies—white, black, and Indian—as captives. Victors then subjected their captives to a variety of fates: they ritually killed some to satisfy the demands of clan vengeance; they adopted others to replace deceased family members; they made chattel slaves out of the remainder. Throughout the colonial period, Native Southerners largely determined a captive’s fate based on his or her sex and age.

  • Identification and Evaluation of Sources This Investigation Will
    History Internal Assessment Section 1: Identification and evaluation of sources This investigation will explore the question: “To what extent were Field Marshall Douglas Haig’s failures responsible for the 1916 Battle of the Somme military tragedy?”. This topic can be expanded to explore numerous factors which influenced the Somme but for the purpose of this investigation it will concentrate on the role Douglas Haig played in the outcome of the battle. The first source that will be evaluated in depth will be an extract from the book “Haig as a military commander”, written by General Sir James Marshall-Cornwall, published in 1973. This source is of particular value as it was written by General Marshall-Cornwall who served directly under Haig as a Junior officer during the Battle of the Somme and claims to have witnessed first-hand, poor advice given to Haig and the effects this advice caused. This knowledge obtained formed his notion that Haig “trusted too completely some of his immediate subordinates”. Furthermore, being published fifty-seven years following the Somme, Marshall-Cornwall would have been able to use hindsight to formulate his view on the subject and derive his conclusions relating to Haig’s role and impact on the Somme, something many primary sources lack. However, this source also has its limitations that impact its value. Assessing the content of his personal recollections to understand events and his experiences at the Battle of the Somme, the information could not have been completely accurate and would be largely incomplete. The arguments he deduced from his experiences would have been based on facts constituting a minor aspect of the overall reasoning behind Haig’s decision making, therefore analysing the topic from a narrower viewpoint rather than developing analysis from a range of different perspectives.

  • Point of Failure: British Army Brigadiers in the British Expeditionary Force and North Western Expeditionary Force, 1940 a Study of Advancement and Promotion
    POINT OF FAILURE: BRITISH ARMY BRIGADIERS IN THE BRITISH EXPEDITIONARY FORCE AND NORTH WESTERN EXPEDITIONARY FORCE, 1940 A STUDY OF ADVANCEMENT AND PROMOTION - PHILIP MC CARTY MA A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the University of Wolverhampton for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy January 2021 This work or any part thereof has not been previously presented in any form to the University or to any other body whether for the purposes of assessment, publication or for any other purpose (unless otherwise indicated).

At this date copyright is owned by the author. POINT OF FAILURE PJ MC CARTY – UNIVERSITY OF WOLVERHAMPTON ABSTRACT By the summer of 1940 the British Army had suffered two simultaneous strategic defeats in Norway and France. Both had led to hurried and ignominious evacuations. A popular misconception contends that this led to a wholesale clearing out of the British Army’s command structure in order to start again, and that many officers suffered the loss of their careers in the necessity to rebuild an army both to withstand invasion and enable victory over Nazi Germany. This thesis contends that this belief is misplaced, and that rather than automatically ending the careers of all involved, some officers would progress and even thrive after 1940 in varying degrees.
