The Civil War thrust millions of men and women-rich and poor, soldiers and civilians, enslaved and free-onto the roads of the South. During four years of war, Southerners lived on the move. In the hands of Yael A. Sternhell, movement becomes a radically new means to perceive the full trajectory of the Confederacy's rise, struggle, and ultimate defeat. By focusing not only on the battlefield and the home front but also on the roads and woods that connected the two, this pioneering book investigates the many roles of bodies in motion. We watch battalions of young men as they march to the front, galvanizing small towns along the way, creating the Confederate nation in the process. We follow deserters straggling home and refugees fleeing enemy occupation, both hoping to escape the burdens of war. And in a landscape turned upside down, we see slaves running toward freedom, whether hundreds of miles away or just beyond the plantation's gate. Based on a vast array of documents, from slave testimonies to the papers of Confederate bureaucrats to the private letters of travelers from all walks of life, Sternhell unearths the hidden connections between physical movements and their symbolic meanings, individual bodies and entire armies, the reinvention of a social order and the remaking of private lives. Movement, as means of liberation and as vehicle of subjugation, lay at the heart of the human condition in the wartime South.

This report was most important for the opening of travel and settlement in West Texas and New Mexico. By these explorations a supply and potential railroad route was surveyed across West Texas, and this became the main passageway for soldiers, settlers and gold seekers. The surveyors were pleased with what they saw, pointing out the large population which could be supported in the Rio Grande Valley, as well as the strategic importance of El Paso. The Simpson report is one of the first thorough surveys in New Mexico. Related to it are the many handsome plates, as well as one of the maps. The other map shows the routes across Texas. The plates with the Simpson report make it an important American color plate book.

Command Sergeant Major Cleveland Spires lost his family, his career, his pride and ten years of his life while in prison for something he didn't do. Now, he's out and simply trying to reestablish himself when he uncovers a clue that might prove his innocence. He heads down a dark and twisting path that leads him to Bangkok, Thailand and on to Tokyo, Japan where the path suddenly widens into a road, a road leading directly to war. Coalition warfare is nothing new. In fact, the US has become masterful at building them. But what happens when the coalition isn't one the US has built; instead it's one whose intent is to destroy the global economy. This is a story of international intrigue, politics and American military power. The military organizations are real. The characters represent the men and women of the US Armed Forces who work every day at protecting America's interests. In the aftermath of 9/11, Colin Powell said that despite America's terribly sophisticated intelligence gathering ability, there is no substitute for something as simple as a human being on the ground, who overhears something. Powell's comment.

As they trudged over the Pyrenees, the Spanish republicans became one of the most iconoclastic groups of refugees to have sought refuge in twentieth-century France. This book explores the array of opportunities, constraints, choices and motivations that characterised their lives. Using a wide range of empirical material, it presents a compelling case for rethinking exile in relation to refugees' lived experiences and memory activities.
