Excerpt from The Story of InyoCalifornia has furnished probably more themes for books than has any other American State. The easy-going romantic years of Mexican rule, the padres, the Argonauts, the golden era, the wonders of this Empire of the West, have had generous attention from both masters and amateurs in prose and poetry, fact and fiction. The flood of writing hardly diminishes, for magazine literature and still more books add to it month by month. Yet few of the writers on California subjects look outside of the boundaries coined by a phrase-making politician, "from Siskiyou to San Diego, from the Sierras to the sea." Even such historians as Bancroft and Hittell deemed it hardly worth their while to inquire into the annals of the borderlands, though the wilds were conquered through many hardships and wars bloodier than some on which volumes have been written.Those who ventured into the unknown regions seldom thought it worth while to set down for the future any extended record of their trials and achievements. While they lived history, it all came to them as part of the day's work.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

By A Customer The Story of Inyo presents a comprehensive view of the history and geology of the Owens Valley, beginning with its first inhabitants, and extending through the conflict with the City of Los Angeles.What makes the book special is that it presents it from the perspective of one of the prominent citizens of the Valley during its formative years, newspaperman and author W.A. Chalfant. When you pick up this book, not only do you get some very insteresting facts about the Owens Valley, you also get to read them in a writing style that was prevalent at the time that the history was being made. It's like reading about history and stepping back into it at the same time.The Story of Inyo should be perhaps the first choice for anyone interested in the history or geology of the Owens Valley.

5 of 5 people found the following review helpful. W.A. Chalfant and The Story of Inyo By Burton Falk In 1887, nineteen year-old W.A. (Bill) Chalfant took over active editorship of the Inyo Register, published in Bishop, CA, and continued to serve in that capacity until a year before his death in 1943 During his long career with the Register, Bill Chalfant became a staunch advocate for Owens Valley residents, especially in regard to the acquisition of local water rights by Los Angeles interests during the early years of the 1900s. When firebrands began dynamiting the resulting aqueduct, however, Chalfant opposed their action and subsequently was threatened to be run out of town. Later he served on the Inyo Associates Committee, a group formed to repair relations with the City of Los Angeles, and, partially through his counsel and sense of justice, he lived to see town properties resold to local residents, thereby returning many acres of Owens Valley land to production. John B. Long, manager of the California Newspaper Publishers Association, said, "Angels Camp had its Mark Twain, the Valley of the Moon its Jack London, San Francisco its Bret Harte, and Owens Valley its Bill Chalfant." Which begs the question, "Who better than Bill Chalfant to write a history of Inyo County?" First published in 1922, The Story of Inyo contains a wealth of information on its namesake County, including, but not limited to: the geology of the area (now somewhat dated), a brief history of the county's first inhabitants (the Paiutes and Shoshones), notes on its earliest explorers (Jedediah Smith, Joe Walker, John C. Fremont), the ordeal of the emigrants who came through Death Valley in 1849, the first attempts to organize a new county (Inyo County was originally part of Tulare County), early mining claims (Coso and Argus in 1860; Slate Range in 1861), the arrival of the first cattle (1861), the Indian Wars (1861-1867, during which 60 whites and some 200 Indians died.), the development of the Cerro Gordo mines (beginning in 1865), the eventual establishment of Inyo County (1866), the Great Earthquake(1872), the opening of the Panamint mines (1873), the discovery of borax in Death Valley (1880), and, last but not least, the development of the Owens Valley as an agricultural area. Updating The Story of Inyo in 1933, Chalfant took aim at the Southern California interests which had acquired most of the water rights in the Owens River drainage, thus severely limiting the area of its agricultural promise. Starting with Chapter XXXIV, "The Betrayal of Owens Valley," and including six additional chapters with foreboding titles such as: "The Coils Tighten," "Unceasing Menace," and "City Lawlessness Emulated," the author provided a detailed--if somewhat mind-numbing--explanation of how the Owens Valley lost its birthright.

1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Part of my past By Donald L. Schultz, Jr. I worked in Bishop, CA for almost three years starting in 1954 right out of college. A few of my fellow workers for the California Division of Highways actually lived through the time of the construction of the aqueduct to transport Owens river water to Los Angeles and experienced first hand the animosity between the Inyo county residents and the city of L.A. Hence, my interest in the subject. The Chalfant Press was still publishing the Bishop, CA newspaper at that time.

Milton and the English Revolution, by Christopher Hill

Free Ebook PDF Online Milton and the English Revolution, by Christopher Hill

In this remarkable book Christopher Hill used the learning gathered in a lifetime’s study of seventeenth-century England to carry out a major reassessment of Milton as man, politician, poet, and above all, religious thinker. The result is a Milton very different from most popular imaginings: instead of a gloomy, sexless ‘Puritan’, we have a dashingly original thinker, sympathetic to polygamy, even branded with the contemporary reputation of a libertine. More importantly, Christopher Hill’s Milton is very different from the writer portrayed in most previous academic studies. To him, Milton is an author who found his real stimulus less in the literature of classical and times and more in the political and religious radicalism of his own day. Hill demonstrates, with originality, learning and insight, how Milton’s political and religious predicament is reflected in his classic poetry, particularly ‘Paradise Lost’ and ‘Samson Agonistes’. ‘A remarkable work of scholarship, full of fascinating matter and stimulating ideas.’ Hugh Trevor-Roper, Sunday Times ‘Few have Christopher Hill’s command of the literature, and fewer still his awareness of the nuaices of seventeenth-century thought and style...Christopher Hill has much of Milton’s learning and more than a little of his commitment. The combination is exhilarating.’ – The Economist ‘Christopher Hill has made an indispensable contribution, not just to Milton or seventeenth-century studies, but to cultural studies as a whole.’ Raymond Williams, Guardian ‘A living, marvellous, readable piece of history...An epoch-making specialist study of the source of many of Milton’s ideas.’ Irish Times Christopher Hill (1912-2003) was a university lecturer in sixteenth- and seventeenth-century history, and from 1965 to 1978 he was Master of Balliol College. His many books and textbooks include ‘The English Bible and the Seventeenth Century Revolution’ and ‘Liberty Against the Law’. Endeavour Press is the UK’s leading independent publisher of digital books.

17 of 20 people found the following review helpful. 400th Anniversary Birthday Greetings- John Milton, Revolutionary and Poet By Alfred Johnson The name and work of the late British Marxist historian Christopher Hill should be fairly well known to readers of this space who follow my reviews on the subject of the 17th century English Revolution. That revolution has legitimately been described as the first one of the modern era and had profound repercussions, especially on the American Revolution and later events on this continent. Although Hill was an ardent Stalinist, seemingly to the end of his life, his works, since they were not as subjected to the conforming pressures of the Soviet political line that he adhered to, are less influenced by that distorting pressure. To our benefit.More importantly, along the way Professor Hill almost single-handedly brought to life the under- classes that formed the backbone of the plebeian efforts during that revolution. We would, surely, know far less about Fifth Monarchists, Brownists, Ranters, panters, Shakers, Quakers and fakers without the sharp eye of the good professor. All to the tune of, and in the spirit of that famous last line from John Milton's "Paradise Lost" about the locus of paradise, except instead of trying to explain the ways of god to man the professor has tried to explain ways of our earlier plebeian brothers and sisters to us.That said, on this the 400th Anniversary year of the birth of John Milton the great English revolutionary and poet it is fitting that the occasion be commemorated by a review of one of Professor Hill's major literary/historical works, "Milton and The English Revolution". Now with a figure like Milton, so central to the Western literary canon, it is, after 400 years of critique, entirely possible to analysis his life and work from a merely literary or religious point of view and "deep-six" his central role as a propagandist for Cromwell's republican English Commonwealth, as a defender of regicide in "The Tenure Of Kings and Magistrates" or as a man emerged in the various radical religious and political controversies of his day. The literary and political fight against such reductionism is, in fact, both the purpose of Hill's book and his core argument in order to take back the person of John Milton for the revolution. And along the way dispel the proposition that Milton was a cloistered "up-tight" Puritan exemplar, especially through his analysis of Milton's tracts on divorce and an examination of his career during the tumultuously 1640's. To this reviewer's mind Hill succeeds in the first task although I still have reservations in imagining the figure of a `rakish' John Milton on the second.As always in dealing with the controversies of the mid-17th in England it is best to have knowledge of the various religious controversies that were swirling through all classes as the showdown with the king, and more importantly, the theory of 'divine right' of kings and the heavy monarchical/church state apparatus based on it. Hill's main argument on this point is that Milton's known theological divergences from then orthodox Laudian Church of England dogma or, for that matter; orthodox Puritan dogma as well made him a prime candidate to be the leading propagandist for the republican side in the dispute.Thus, Milton intellectually was totally emerged in the on-going controversies over mortalism, the Trinity, the divinity of Christ, the literalness (and timing) of the Second Coming, the virgin birth, arminianism, Arianism and the thousand and one varieties on this theme that had more than one champion in its day. As Hill notes these controversies may seem rather abstract or of merely academic interest today but then one could pay with his or her life for a wrong move. Most famously, look at the fate of Quaker James Nayler, for one, for the truth of that matter-and remember that man drew a severe sentence for his `folly' during the fairly "enlightened" Cromwellian Protectorate.If one recognizes, as I following Professor Hill do, the politically shrewd aspect of Milton's career as well as that of his role as thoughtful if somewhat arbitrary advocate for various political causes that were dear to his heart then his role as propagandist for the Republic is easier to understand. As Secretary of Foreign Tongues he was the voice of the English Revolution to the known world. In that capacity, rather than that of a 'private intellectual' the reading of such treatises as his defense of regicide "Tenure of Kings And Magistrates" and his rebuttal to Charles I in "Eikonoklastes" makes more sense.At one time I placed Milton as something of the 17th century equivalent of the Russian revolutionary Leon Trotsky in the 20th century who, according to no less an authority than George Bernard Shaw, was the "prince of pamphleteers" of his era. I now believe this earlier characterization of mine made Milton more organizationally and theoretically committed to the fate of the revolution, as he suffered later disillusions with the revolution under the Commonwealth, than he actually was. However, among the literary set of the English Revolution, his is the most outstanding voice trying to push the revolution, the "revolution of the saints" to put it in the parlance of the day, to the left. All the way to 1660 and beyond, despite his physical blindness. And then in defeat to explain what went wrong, as well.Although Hill has drawn in this little political biography a portrait of Milton as a man enmeshed in his times his seminal poetic and other literary work after his narrow escape from the clutches of a vengeful Charles II in 1660- the trilogy, "Paradise Lost", "Paradise Regained" and "Samson Agonistes" are also well analyzed. I do not, however, want to enter into that post-revolutionary literary/political discussion which takes up the last part of the book here, interesting as it is. As mentioned above more than enough ink has been spilled over the last four hundred years deciphering the meanings of those works by the literary set. The reader can read this section and make up his or her mind without my layman's literary comments. To conclude then, this book pays due homage to the prime literary defender of the "Good Old Cause", a cause that WAS worth fighting for. All Honor To The Memory Of John Milton, Revolutionary And Poet.

Has inspired me to read Milton, the de doctrina, that I would never have otherwise considered.That said, the blurbs that suggest that Hill was an unrepentant Stalinist are belied by comments that make it clear that he sees the murderous nature of Stalinist totalitarianism (not that this is a great achievement). On the other hand, he has some issues with Milton's theology that I think are not consistent with the De Doctrina, and seem to be representative of what he wishes Milton would be rather than what he was.Still, a great achievement and a wonderful window into this particular 17th century giant's world and work.

Free Ebook Online Wall Flower: A Life on the German Border (German and European Studies), by Rita Kuczynski

In August 1961, seventeen-year-old Rita Kuczynski was living with her grandmother and studying piano at a conservatory in West Berlin. Caught in East Berlin by the rise of the Berlin Wall while on a summer visit to her parents, she found herself trapped behind the Iron Curtain for the next twenty-eight years.

Kuczynski’s fascinating memoir relates her experiences of life in East Germany as a student, a fledgling academic philosopher, an independent writer, and, above all, as a woman. Though she was never a true believer in Communism, Rita gained entry into the circles of the East German intellectual elite through her husband Thomas Kuczynski. There, in the privileged world that she calls “the gardens of the nomenklatura,” she saw first-hand the contradictions at the heart of life for the East German intelligentsia.

Published in English for the very first time twenty-six years after the fall of the Berlin Wall, Wall Flower offers a rare – and critical – look at life among the East German elite. Told with wry wit and considerable candor, Kuczynski’s story offers a fascinating perspective on the rise and fall of East Germany.

3 of 3 people found the following review helpful. Too dense to enjoy as a whole, some interesting parts By Paul Wow, was this ever difficult to read! And not just because I’m not a Hegel fan. According to the translator, “She presents herself as a flower on the (Berlin) Wall. . .” So there’s your title. A woman from West Berlin finds herself on the wrong side of the wall when it goes up and has to live in the DDR. For all those readers who grew up on the west side of the world, so to speak, this is where we all say, “Damn, that sucks. Too bad.” But she doesn’t quite see it that way. At the start she’s a kid with a huge imagination for games, learning piano without having one around while she deals with a brutal father and apathetic mother, who tricks her into being in the east sector when the wall goes up, so she can no longer be with her singer grandmother in the west. She escapes so deeply into the music she goes crazy, so her parents say. After her release from the psych ward she won’t go back to her family, so she wanders around doing odd jobs; in the GDR it was apparently illegal to be homeless or jobless. Though she works nights at a light bulb factory, and takes a job at a butcher’s because she loves meat, she makes more money by being a thief. When the rebellion inside her peters out she manages to get into the University of Liepzig to study philosophy, where I had a good laugh to find she liked the same stuff in symbolic logic that I did. Eventually she learns to play the system: when she sees the more pages written the better, she double spaces and makes more chapters. When she notices they count how many books you borrow from the library—the more the better—she takes suitcases of books home and earns the reputation she wants. Using her low blood pressure as an excuse, she pretends to faint and gets out of military training. She even marries a gay friend for a year, which worked out well for both of them; then they got divorced, and she marries the guy she’s been living with. More importantly, she learned how to make people leave her alone. But by the end you can see that she learned to play the game at the cost of her soul. This comes into stark relief with her third marriage, an upright citizen who comes from a famous family, though she didn’t know that—or even met them!—before the wedding. She forces herself to become the dutiful politically correct wife, but eventually she realizes, “I had tried out the cynic’s way of life and could not endure it. . . ultimately I understood that I could not outwit the circumstances, even using the cunning of reason.” Yep, that’s how she thinks, and writes. There’s a lot of funny quotes in her descriptions of the people around her and even herself. About her third husband she says, “His political standpoint did not matter to me, so long as he did not force it on me.” Of herself she mentions, “The role of political ‘dummy’ had its advantages.” In a moment of very dark humor she calls the Stasi the “Institute for Opinion Research.” And as for the people she was forced to hang around with, “The majority of socialist intellectuals found it distasteful that East Germans desired bananas, shower gel, and cars and not the complete works of Nietzsche or Trotsky.” Also “The great majority of East German intellectuals have totally disappeared, and hardly anyone misses them.” And as for the country itself, “For me East Germany had become a place to which, in the future, I wanted to return after my trips to the West in order to write in peace.”She does have an interesting take on the Communist collapse: after saying that artists and writers had a lot of the same privileges as the politicians, she adds that the citizens were okay with that, because they loved their artists. “Only once they demanded for themselves what the artists had long been allowed. . . that the privileges be open to everyone equally, did the GDR collapse.”And of course there can’t be a book on the Communist world without some mention of Pablo Neruda, who is introduced to her by her lover during her third husband; yep, girl got around. Even for an autobiographical piece, this just feels so self-indulgent; when I look back, I can’t help but think I should have enjoyed this more. There were too many philosophical ramblings, and judgments she made from them, that I didn’t understand, mostly because despite all this writing I couldn’t really get inside her head. Even the translator in his intro was kinda rambling.

Arthur “Art” Gerald Donahue, a native of Minnesota, bravely entered the fray of the Second World War as volunteer pilot in the Royal Air Force by falsely claiming to be a Canadian in 1940. He was already an experienced pilot before he took off in his Spitfire in 64 Squadron based at RAF Kenley, and then 71 Squadron. His experiences and victories during the Battle of Britain are recounted in his first book “Yankee In A Spitfire” but suffice it to say he flew with great skill and courage as one of the “Few”. After a period of brief leave in America he was transferred to the Far East with 258 Squadron, a part of the belated effort to reinforce Singapore. In this book he recounts his adventures in the air over Singapore and Sumatra in the chaotic fighting that saw the British troops routed by a brilliant offensive by the Japanese. Surviving the overwhelming odds in the air, the author managed to escape back to England via India; but was listed as missing in action in 1942. “Donahue makes no attempt either to dramatize or underplay his experiences. He tells them in a simple, unvarnished manner, much as if he were sitting down with some friends back home. The result is pretty close to what the real thing must have been.”—New York Times

Tragically killed in action in 1942, he was a humble man, a good writer and an honest eyewitness. The word "hero" is probably overused, but this man and those he served alongside undeniably deserve it.

As part of our on-going commitment to delivering value to the reader, we have also provided you with a link to a website, where you may download a digital version of this work for free. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. Whilst the books in this collection have not been hand curated, an aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature. As a result of this book being first published many decades ago, it may have occasional imperfections. These imperfections may include poor picture quality, blurred or missing text. While some of these imperfections may have appeared in the original work, others may have resulted from the scanning process that has been applied. However, our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. While some publishers have applied optical character recognition (OCR), this approach has its own drawbacks, which include formatting errors, misspelt words, or the presence of inappropriate characters. Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with an experience that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work. We hope that you will enjoy this wonderful classic book, and that the occasional imperfection that it might contain will not detract from the experience.
