Fine. 8vo., Penguin, 2003, 5, America's Three Consitutions: By Lochlainn Seabrook 142 pages It is a rarity to find a book that includes the unaltered original texts of all three of America's most conservative documents. It is even more difficult to find one compiled by a political Conservative! Award-winning historian Lochlainn Seabrook has permanently solved this problem with his little volume America's Three Constitutions: Complete Texts of the Articles of Confederation, U.S. Constitution, and C.S. Constitution. In addition to these three important charters, Mr. Seabrook also provides numerous supplemental conservative documents that are seldom recognized or discussed today; critical early writings that helped forge the spectacular country that George Washington called a "confederate republic" The United States of America.The papers in this heavily illustrated work span 87 years, from 1774 to 1861, covering the period in which the following significant events took place: The secession of the 13 American colonies (in response to the tyranny of monarchical Great Britain), the American Revolutionary War, the founding of the United States of America, the writing of the Articles of Confederation, the Philadelphia Convention, the writing of the Constitution of the United States of America, the secession of 13 (eleven full, two partial) Southern states (in response to the tyranny of the Left-wing North), the formation of the Confederate States of America, the writing of the Constitution of the Confederate States of America, and the start of Lincoln's War on the U.S. Constitution.While leaving the original 18th- and 19th-Century texts intact and unedited, Mr. Seabrook provides historical bullet points for each document which supply background and context to the creation and development of both the United States of America and the Confederate States of America. The author-editor also includes an introduction, index, appendices, endnotes, and a bibliography.

From the earliest poem, written when she was 19 years old, to poetry written just before her death in 1998 at the age of 91, this anthology spans the gamut of Catherine Cookson s life and work. The collection draws on many themes that will be familiar to readers of this much-loved writer: love, work, class and the beauty of nature. She also shares more personal thoughts, reflections on her own writing, marriage to her beloved Tom, and life in the north of England. The poems are characterized by her down-to-earth common sense, and the hard-won philosophy she developed for herself. In Brushed Nylon, she tackles the subject of a failed relationship, while The Daily Round takes a look at working life. Slow Me Down talks of her feelings about growing old, and The Jo, 6<
