Durante a maior parte da minha vida sempre fiquei extasiado com as histórias sobre os nativos da América do Norte. É muito difícil encontrar alguém que não se empolgue com um filme de weatern tendo como protagonistas os nativos americanos: Dances with Wolves ("Dança com Lobos"), de 1990, com Kevin Costner; A Man Called Horse ("Um Homem Chamado Cavalo"), de 1970, e The Return of a Man Called Horse ("A Vingança de um Homem Chamado Cavalo"), de 1976, com Richard Harris; e muitos outros. Este encanto por tudo que envolve os nativos da América do Norte me inspiraram escrever estória, inserindo-os num contexto fictício, mas alinhado com a história, a qual agora ponho a disposição do público leitor, para entretê-lo nos momentos de lazer e de reflexão.Então, para escrever tal estória, escolhi o povo Sinixt Interior Salish [também conhecido como Sin-Aikst ou Sin Aikst, Senjextee, Arrow Lakes Band ("Tribo dos Lagos da Flecha") ou, menos comumente nas últimas décadas, simplesmente como The Lakes ("Os Lagos")] que residia ao longo do Rio Columbia, Arrow Lakes ("Lagos da Flecha"), Slocan Valley ("Vale Slocan") e partes do lago Kootenay, hoje Columbia Britânica, no Canadá. Atualmente o povo Sinixt é declarado extinto pelo Governo Canadense. No entanto nem sempre foi assim.De fato, o povo Sinixt e seus aliados mantinham um relacionamento muito próximo com a Hudson's Bay Company ("Companhia da Baía de Hudson"). Eles passaram o inverno perto do principal posto comercial de Covile pela primeira vez em 1830 e 1831, liderados pelo chefe do Baixo Sinixt, See-Whel-Ken, falecido em 1840. O povo Sinixt apoiou a Hudson's Bay Company em seus esforços para impedir que caçadores e colonos americanos entrassem e dominassem seu território primitivo. Como comerciantes de peles que eram, os sinixts estavam entre os mais prolíficos de todas as "Primeiras Nações" (primeiros povos indígenas predominantes no Canadá ao sul do Círculo Polar Ártico, distintos dos povos da área do Ártico, os quais são conhecidos como Inuit) que negociavam em Forte Colvile.Garimpeiros já vinham esmiuçando o território do povo Sinixt desde o início do século XIX, mas começaram a entrar em maior número nesse território na Colúmbia Britânica nas décadas de 1850 e 1860. Todavia, os sinixts conseguiram manter controle efetivo sobre seu território tradicional do norte nas décadas de 1850, 1860 e 1870, apesar de alguns conflitos.De maneira que esta obra é uma singela homenagem ao povo Sinixt. Esperamos que os protagonistas Bernardo, José Nazareno, o capitão Spike Paterson, a mestiça Ercilla, a viúva Nina Avilles, a prostituta francesa Augustine, o capitão pirata russo Vorolev, os nativos sinixt Comaplic, Nakusp, Selishena e Selxcan e Nawha, nativa do povo Swhy-ayl-puh, caiam no agrado do público leitor.

This book provides the basis for a uniform introductory course to commercial law.

With this book, instructors can provide a rigorous introduction to the conceptual problems raised by the practice of commercial transactions, both for the deal-maker and the litigator. The materials examine all of the basic substantive areas of the Code, but not with the goal of providing an overview or preparing students for the bar exam. Instead, [the authors] explore problems and cases in some depth ... -Pref.

A magisterial account of the rise of capitalism Eric Hobsbawm's magnificent treatment of the crucial years 1848-1875 is a penetrating analysis of the rise of capitalism and the consolidation of bourgeois culture. In the 1860s a new word entered the economic and political vocabulary of the world: 'capitalism'. The global triumph of capitalism is the major theme of history in the decades after 1848. The extension of capitalist economy to four corners of the globe, the mounting concentration of wealth, the migration of men, the domination of Europe and European culture made the third quarter of the nineteenth century a watershed. This is a history not only of Europe but of the world. Eric Hobsbawm's intention is not to summarise facts, but to draw facts together into a historical synthesis, to 'make sense of' the period, and to trace the roots of the present world back to it. He integrates economics with political and intellectual developments in this objective yet original account of revolution and the failure of revolution, of the cycles of boom and slump that characterise capitalist economies, of the victims and victors of the bourgeois ethos.

First published in 1990, The Ethnographic Imagination explores how sociologists use literary and rhetorical conventions to convey their findings and arguments, and to 'persuade' their colleagues and students of the authenticity of their accounts. Looking at selected sociological texts in the light of contemporary social theory, the author analyses how their arguments are constructed and illustrated, and gives many new insights into the literary convention of realism and factual accounts.
