Giulio M. Gallarotti, "The Anatomy of an International Monetary Regime: The Classical Gold Standard, 1880-1914".
Publisher: Oxford University Press | english | ISBN: 0195089901 | edition: 1995 | PDF | 368 Pages | 27 Mb
Widely considered the crowning achievement in the history of international monetary relations, the classical gold standard (1880- 1914) has long been treated like a holy relic. Its veneration, however, has done more to obscure than to reveal the actual nature of the era's monetary system. In The Anatomy of an International Monetary Regime, Giulio M. Gallarotti addresses the nature of the classical gold standard in its international context, offering the first comprehensive and systematic treatment of the subject.Three fundamental questions are essential to the discussion: How did the regime originate? How did it work? Why did it persist? Gallarotti uses an interdisciplinary approach that draws upon politics, economics, and ideology to explain the answers.

Charlie Martin, "Battle Diary: From D-Day and Normandy to the Zuider Zee and Ve".
Publisher: Dundurn Pr Ltd | english | ISBN: 155002213X | edition: 1994 | PDF | 191 Pages | 13 Mb
In this book, Sergeant-Major Charles Cromwell recounts his own first-hand experiences of the Canadian arms of the D-Day landings. Like the hit movie "Saving Private Ryan", this book is told in vivid, easy to understand - "readable" english. Here he vividly recreates the horrors of the landings, and how these (like the American landing at Ohmaha), went wrong. He then takes us past the landings and on a journey through the next few months. He takes us through the sweep into France and through the push into Germany.

Eleanor Darke, "A Mill Should Be Build Thereon: An Early History of Todmorden Mills".
Publisher: Natural History/Natural Heritage | english | ISBN: 0920474896 | edition: 1996 | PDF | 116 Pages | 7 Mb
It is difficult for Todmorden Mills Museum visitors to imagine that this site so close to the busy Don Valley Parkway was once home to an important mill. As early as 1793 Governor Simcoe recognised the industrial potential of this portion of the Don River. By 1795 Skinner's sawmill was under construction, initiating an era of technological development that spread beyond the valley of the Don into what was then Muddy York. Today, Todmorden serves to remind us of Toronto's industrial heritage and the spirit of the time.

Richard T. Arndt, "The First Resort of Kings: American Cultural Diplomacy in the Twentieth Century".
Publisher: Potomac Books Inc. | english | ISBN: 1574885871 | edition: 2005 | PDF | 608 Pages | 18 Mb
During the last five decades, U.S. cultural diplomacy programs have withered because of politics and accidents of history that have subordinated cultural diplomacy to public relations campaigning, now called "public diplomacy." With anti-Americanism on the rise worldwide, cultural diplomacy should become an immediate priority, but politicians continue to ignore this relatively inexpensive, age-old tool for promoting understanding among nations. Richard Arndt probes the history of American cultural diplomacy to demonstrate its valuable past contributions and to make a plea for reviving it for the future.

Центрполиграф | 2007 | ISBN-13: 9785952428690 | 216 pages | PDF | 20 MB
Авторы рассматривают историю развития костюма и военного об¬лачения в Англии и Западной Европе со времен Крестовых походов до начала XIX столетия. Вы получите представление как о доспехах, в которые были облачены воины в битве при Гастингсе в 1066 году, так и о пышных английских нарядах эпохи Регентства. Тенденции развития гражданского костюма прослеживаются на примере одежды представителей высшего света, а эволюция боевых доспехов на примере рыцарского облачения. Авторы создали настоящую картинную галерею прошлого, прогулка по которой доставит удовольствие читателю, инте¬ресующемуся историей костюма и доспехов.
