A touching story of cultural difference and tested loyalties. Set in Belgrade before WWII, Fathers and Forefathers tells the story of the marriage between a Steven, a Serb, and Elizabeth, an Englishwoman. After meeting at an English university they marry and leave England to build their life together. Steven's narrative and Elizabeth's letters home reveal two very different personal accounts of the difficulties this involves. Raised in Serbia their son, Mihajlo, is ashamed of his mixed parentage and rebels against his non-Serbian ancestry. On the eve of the war, Steven's loyalties are challenged when his counsel is sought by both the Serbian king and the opposition. He resolves to keep his distance from the conflict, but Mihajlo's more radical response forces him to become involved, and tragedy engulfs the family.

Research on fathers and fatherhood has blossomed in recent years, focusing, for the most part, on present-day fathering experiences but also beginning to uncover hidden narratives of past fatherhood. This collection aims to add something new to this expanding field by exploring the dynamic relationship between present and past fatherhoods. The popular understanding of fathers in past generations, as being detached and uninvolved in the lives of their children, can be said to play a significant part in the construction of modern fathering identities, with ideas of “new” fatherhood being played off against notions of historical fathering practices. However, research has begun to show that these popular myths often misremember the past, judging it by current standards and obscuring the diverse nature of fathering practices in the recent and distant past. A genealogical approach is able to critically examine these intergenerational constructions of fatherhood and more positively illuminate the ways in which experiences of fathering and being fathered are passed on between generations. The contributions to this collection use a genealogical approach (broadly defined) to fathering and fatherhood as a way of defamiliarizing accepted narratives and suggesting new ways of thinking about men and their relationships with their children.

A novel based on the forgotten historical figures who ensured the triumph of democracy in the country that would become America. A Global eBook Awards Gold Medal Winner In the early colonies, this country was on the precipice of becoming an autocratic theocracy. A century and a half before Jefferson and Adams, the battle for democracy, freedom, and equal rights was sparked by a few people who are now lost and forgotten pieces of history. Travel back to 1620s London, where hardworking and creative Samuel met Mary, a unique and highly educated woman. Their journey would lead them to the colonies, where they were ostracized and sentenced to death for introducing the fundamental principles modern Americans hold dear. This fast-paced historical fiction will make you question your understanding of the founding years of this free nation. These pioneers created the template our founding fathers used to build America. Forefathers & Founding Fathers is an adventure, a love story, and a tale of great persistence—a tale that every American should know and yet most do not. This expanded second edition explores even further into the lives of these impactful figures, giving a deeper perspective on their sacrifices and devotion to this country.

Forefathers & Founding Fathers tells one of the many tales of the founding years in the American colonies. It was a time of extreme turbulence during a period known as the Great Migration. The Puritans that came to this New World in the name of religious freedom actually created the opposite. Boston was a theocracy that oppressed any but the mainstream Puritan perspective. It was that intolerant environment that created an atmosphere ripe for the killing of Quakers, and the Salem witch hunts. And of course, as you will learn in this book, the banishing, hangings and other atrocities committed on those that did not conform.When we think about the founding fathers of the United States, we envisage Thomas Jefferson, John Adams, Washington and many others in the late 1700s. In the Boston or Plymouth colony of 1640, any one of those founding fathers would have been banished, whipped or killed for their beliefs. It is a difficult image to reconcile: those sweet Pilgrims who celebrated the first Thanksgiving with the Indians, banishing Thomas Jefferson for the radical idea of freedom of religion, separation of church and state, or civil government!This is the story of four individuals, all of whom are considered founders of the smallest colony, Rhode Island. From their small outpost, they fought the rest of the colonies for freedom of religion, democracy and equal rights in the mid-1600s. For those beliefs they were ostracized, banished, whipped, and killed while paving the road that sparked architecture for our founding fathers to build this great democracy. This is the story of the forefathers to our founding fathers.
