Mayhew Henry London Labour and the London Poor (Penguin Classics)
LONDON LABOUR AND THE LONDON, MAYHEW,H.:LONDON LABOUR AND THE LONDON
\''London Labour and the London Poor\'' originated in a series of newspaper articles written by the great journalist Henry Mayhew between 1849 and 1850. A dozen years later, it had grown into the fullest picture we have of labouring people in the world's greatest city in the nineteenth century - a four volume account of the hopes, customs, grievances and habits of the working-classes that allows them to tell their own stories. Combining practicality with compassion, Mayhew worked unencumbered by political theory and strove solely to report on the lives of the London poor, their occupations...

Orwell George Homage to Catalonia.
ORWELL:HOMAGE TO CATALONIA, Homage to Catalonia
'Every line of serious work that I have written since 1936 has been written, directly or indirectly, against totalitarianism and for democratic socialism as I understand it.' Thus wrote Orwell following his experiences as a militiaman in the Spanish Civil War, chronicled in 'Homage to Catalonia'. Here he brings to bear all the force of his humanity, passion and clarity, describing with bitter intensity the bright hopes and cynical betrayals of that chaotic episode.2000, 272 Seiten, Maße: 12,9 x 19,6 cm, Kartoniert (TB), Englisch

Syme Ronald The Roman Revolution.
Oxford University Press The Roman Revolution, Oxford University Press Ronald Syme - The Roman Revolution
The Roman Revolution is a profound and unconventional treatment of a great theme - the fall of the Republic and the decline of freedom in Rome between 60 BC and AD 14, and the rise to power of the greatest of the Roman Emperors, Augustus. The transformation of state and society, the violent transference of power and property, and the establishment of Augustus' rule are presented in an unconventional narrative, which quotes from ancient evidence, refers seldomly to modern authorities, and states controversial opinions quite openly. The result is a book which is both fresh and...

Colby Buzzell My War: Killing Time in Iraq
Berkley Pub Group Colby Buzzell - My War: Killing Time in Iraq
My War is a book that will challenge many of the most common assumptions about the Iraq War and the people fighting in it. Colby Buzzell, the book's author and a U.S. Army machine-gunner who did a year-long tour in Iraq, is not the stereotypical small-town soldier from a Red State. He grew up in San Francisco eating pot brownies at the Haight-Ashbury Street Fair, skateboarding, and listening to punk and heavy metal. He supported Ralph Nader for president, reads George Orwell, and his dad worked in Silicon Valley. But he was sick of his "life in oblivion," bouncing around from one dead-end...
