DOWNLOAD EBOOKFor the 380,000 African American soldiers who fought in World War I, Woodrow Wilson's charge to make the world "safe for democracy" carried life-or-death meaning. Chad L. Williams reveals the central role of African American soldiers in the global conflict and how they, along with race activists and ordinary citizens, committed to fighting for democracy at home and beyond. Using a diverse range of sources, Torchbearers of Democracy reclaims the legacy of African American soldiers and veterans and connects their history to issues such as the obligations of citizenship, combat and labor, diaspora and internationalism, homecoming and racial violence, "New Negro" militancy, and African American memories of the war.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKKashmir, the paradise on earth with its glorious history, strategic location and unique cultural ethos based on the synthesis of the diverse civilizations, remains the second undecided human problem on the UN agenda, after Palestine. Kashmir has remained an attraction for invaders and aggressors. From the 16th century onwards, it fell to the Mughals, the Pathans, the Sikhs of the Punjab and finally it was sold to a neighbouring Dogra chieftain whose family ruthlessly ruled it for a century. This is where our story takes place. It revolves around the young daughter of a poor widow maidservant who loves a young boy from a poor family. This love affair and the struggle for freedom in Kashmir develops simultaneously. The lovers undergo unexpected vicissitudes just like the freedom Movement, which for the follies and treacheries of its leadership led to an uncertain future of its people including these lovers. The fictional treatment of contemporary political history, the wars fought on its soil, the Indian intransigence, hypocritical vacillation of Pakistan, criminal silence of the UNO and the political opportunism of big powers weave the plot together. The idyllic environs, rich cultural heritage, creative intellect, dexterous and beautiful arts and crafts and mystique in blended sceneries of Kashmir a legend is the backdrop of this original story from a son of the soil.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from The Torch-Bearers This volume, while it is complete in itself, is also the first of a trilogy, the scope of which is suggested in the prologue. The story of scientific discovery has its own epic unity - a unity of purpose and endeavour - the single torch passing from hand to hand through the centuries; and the great moments of science when, after long labour, the pioneers saw their accumulated facts falling into a significant order - sometimes in the form of a law that revolutionised the whole world of thought - have an intense human interest and belong essentially to the creative imagination of poetry. It is with these moments that my poem is chiefly concerned, not with any impossible attempt to cover the whole field or to make a new poetic system, after the Lucretian model, out of modem science. The theme has been in my mind for a good many years; and the first volume, dealing with the 'Watchers of the Sky,' began to take definite shape during what was to me an unforgettable experience - the night I was privileged to spend on a summit of the Sierra Madre Mountains, when the first trial was made of the new 100-inch telescope. The prologue to this volume attempts to give a picture of that night, and to elucidate my own purpose. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
