Synopsis: The third book in the Baker History of the Church series explores
the development of the church during the medieval period, covering the years AD
600 - 1450. In the first two volumes of the Baker History of the Church,
readers found an accessible but authoritative series that shed light on the
roots of their faith and the foundations of the church. The Medieval Church, the
third volume of the series, covers the years AD 600 - 1450. While the term
"Middle Ages" limits the true scope of the church in this time period, Paul M.
Bassett discusses the various expressions of faith in the sixth and seventh
centuries and offers careful examination of the events that affected the
medieval church. His comprehensive account offers a lively history of
Christianity from the final collapse of the Roman Empire to the first shocks of
the Reformation.

Synopsis: This groundbreaking account of Scotland’s diaspora is a
fascinating study in character and identity. Over the years, millions of
native Scots have left their home country, yet they have been written about only
in general terms. Scottish Exodus breaks new ground by taking a set of emigrants
by the name of MacLeod and, with the help of their descendants, investigates
exactly what happened to them. These MacLeods began as Scots, but became
French aristocrats, Polish resistance fighters, Irish priests, Texan ranchers,
New Zealand shepherds, Australian gold miners, Aboriginal activists and Nova
Scotian farmers. One nineteenth-century MacLeod even swapped his Gaelic
for Arabic, and his Christianity for Islam before settling down comfortably in
Cairo. Based on unpublished documents, letters and family histories, and
on the author’s travels in the company of today’s MacLeods — some of them still
in Scotland, others in the United States, Australia, Canada, England, Poland,
France, New Zealand and South Africa — Scottish Exodus is a tale of horror and
hardship, disastrous voyages and the hazards of pioneering on faraway frontiers.
But it is also the moving story of how people separated from Scotland by
hundreds of years and thousands of miles continue to identify with the small
country where their global journeys began.

Synopsis:
As direct descendants of the great
courtier-poets Fujiwara no Shunzei (1114-1204) and his son Teika (1162-1244),
the heirs of the noble Reizei house can claim an unbroken literary lineage that
spans over eight-hundred years. During all that time, their primary goal
has been to sustain the poetic enterprise, or michi (way), of the house and to
safeguard its literary assets, which include secret teachings, ritual practices,
works of art, and a treasure of trove of manuscripts that has only been
available for study by scholars since the mid-1980s. Steven D. Carter
weaves together strands of family history, literary criticism, and historical
research into a coherent narrative about the transmission and evolution of the
Reizei Way from generation to generation, beginning with its genesis in the late
Heian period and ending with the Reizei House as it still directs poetic
activities today in the family residence--recently restored--on Imadegawa Avenue
in Kyoto. What emerges from this innovative approach is an elegant
portrait of the Reizei poets as participants in a collective institution devoted
more to the continuity of family poetic practices and ideals than to the concept
of individual expression that is so central to more modern poetic culture.
In addition to the narrative chapters, the book also features an extensive
appendix of one hundred poems from over the centuries, by poets who were
affiliated with the Reizei house. Carter's annotations provide essential
critical context for this selection of poems, and his deft translations
underscore the rich contributions of the Reizei family and their many disciples
to the Japanese poetic tradition.

Synopsis: Ben W. McClelland is a professor of English and holder of the
Schillig Chair of English Composition at the University of Mississippi.
"In December 1944 First Lieutenant Ewing R. "Pete" McClelland
was captured in the Battle of the Bulge. Soon afterwards he was killed when the
Allies bombed the German POW camp where he was held." "Back home in
Pennsylvania, his young widow and three small children survived him. Too young
to have lasting recollections, Ben W. McClelland, the soldier's son who was just
beyond infancy, became one of the war's fatherless innocents for whom the
memories of others would form the paternal image." "As the boy evolved into
manhood, he reflected on how strange it was to grow up without this parent. In
this narrative, a work of analysis as well as an odyssey into family heritage,
the son undertakes a compelling search to find this man he could not remember. Through sentiment and nostalgia he depicts the innocence of childhood and
recalls the many people who furnished impressions of his father." "Old
photographs, intimate letters, and interviews with the memory keepers and the
storytellers in his extended family were resources from which the author
recreated a time and a place and a person. This reconstruction resurrects a
father vital in life and passion, a man chronicled in humorous family tales,
realized among vivid small-town characters, and seen against the contrast of
social changes of the 1960s." "The search for his father consumed most of a
lifetime. As Ben W. McClelland was approaching the age of sixty, he had
recovered this lost, never-before-realized identity. But to complete the circle
of his quest, he undertook one thing more, the emotional pilgrimage to his
father's grave in Europe." --BOOK JACKET. Title Summary field provided by

Synopsis: A study of the British Atlantic World through a case study of
the plantation-owning Lascelles.
From the mid-seventeenth century to the 1830s, successful
gentry capitalists created an extensive business empire centered on slavery in
the West Indies, but inter-linked with North America, Africa, and Europe. S. D.
Smith examines the formation of this British Atlantic World from the perspective
of Yorkshire aristocratic families who invested in the West Indies. At the heart
of the book lies a case study of the plantation-owning Lascelles and the
commercial and cultural network they created with their associates. The Lascelles exhibited high levels of business innovation and were accomplished
risk-takers, overcoming daunting obstacles to make fortunes out of the New
World. Dr Smith shows how the family raised themselves first to super-merchant
status and then to aristocratic pre-eminence. He also explores the tragic
consequences for enslaved Africans with chapters devoted to the slave
populations and interracial relations. This widely-researched book sheds new
light on the networks and the culture of imperialism.

Synopsis: A renowned German novelist's memoir of his brother, who joined the
SS and was killed at the Russian front. Uwe Timm was only two years old when in
1942 his older brother, Karl Heinz, announced to his family he had volunteered
for service with an elite squadron of the German army, the SS Totenkopf
Division, also known as Death's Heads. Little more than a year later Karl Heinz
was injured in battle at the Russian front, his legs amputated, and a few weeks
after that he died in a military hospital. To their father, Karl Heinz's death
only served to immortalize him as the courageous one, the obedient one, the one
who upheld the family honor. His childhood was marked by the mythology of his
brother's lost life; his absence-the hole he left in the family-just as palpable
as if he were still alive. His mother's sadness and his father's rage over the
loss of Karl Heinz ultimately defined Uwe's relationship with his parents. But
while they eulogized the boy, Uwe wondered: who really had his brother been? The
life and death of his older brother has haunted Uwe Timm for more than sixty
years. His parents' silence was one of the most painful aspects of his family
history. Not even after the war ended, and details of unspeakable horrors
emerged, did his parents ever acknowledge Germany's guilt and Karl Heinz's role
in it. They simply said: We didn't know. After the deaths of his parents and
older sister Timm set out in search of answers. Using military reports, letters,
family photos and cryptic entries from a diary his brother kept during the war,
he began to piece together the picture, discovering his brother's story is not
just that of one man, but the tragedy of an entire generation. In the Shadow of
My Brother is a meditation on German history and guilt, one that is both nuanced
and measured.

Synopsis: Immediately after the Holocaust, it seemed inconceivable that a
Jewish community would rebuild in Germany. What was once unimaginable has now
come to pass: Germany is home to one of Europe's most dynamic Jewish
communities, and it has the fastest growing Jewish immigrant population of any
country in the world outside Israel. By sharing the life stories of members of
one Jewish family-the Kalmans-Y. Michal Bodemann provides an intimate look at
what it is like to live as a Jew in Germany today. Having survived concentration
camps in Poland, four Kalman siblings-three brothers and a sister-were left
stranded in Germany after the war. They built new lives and a major enterprise;
they each married and had children. Over the past fifteen years Bodemann
conducted extensive interviews with the Kalmans, mostly with the survivors' ten
children, who were born between 1948 and 1964. In these oral histories, he
shares their thoughts on Judaism, work, family, and community. Staying in
Germany is not a given; four of the ten cousins live in Israel and the United
States. Among the Kalman cousins are an art gallery owner, a body builder, a
radio personality, a former chief financial officer of a prominent U.S. bank,
and a sculptor. They discuss Zionism, anti-Semitism, what it means to root for
the German soccer team, Schindler's List, money, success, marriage and
intermarriage, and family history. They reveal their different levels of
engagement with Judaism and involvement with local Jewish communities. Kalman is
a pseudonym, and this anonymity allows the family members to talk with passion
and candor about their relationships and their lives as Jews.

The German Jewish community was decimated after Hitler came to power in 1933,
reduced from 600,000 to less than 10,000 by the end of WWII. Now, there are well
over 100,000 Jews in Germany, and the number continues to increase. Bodemann, a
sociology professor at the University of Toronto, has written one book (Out of
the Ashes) and edited another (Jews, Germans, Memory) dealing with contemporary
German Jewry. His new book approaches the same subject by examining the
experiences of one Jewish family consisting of four concentration camp survivors
and their ten children. The one female survivor and her husband moved to the
United States with their young son, who went on to become a successful financial
analyst with little relationship to his cousins. The male survivors remained in
Germany, where they established a large kitchen appliance business. Three
cousins moved to Israel, and the rest remained in Germany, where Bodemann began
interviewing them in 1990. Although the stories have considerable human
interest, they represent raw data that require interpretation and analysis.
Bodemann gives verbatim accounts of the interviews without regard to the
repetitious content. Readers will come away frustrated if they seek clear
answers to the questions of why Jews remain in Germany and why so many are
attracted to the land that once fostered Nazism. (Jan.) Copyright 2004 Reed

Synopsis: "This is an exciting book, indeed a pathbreaking book, for it
opens new vistas in the history of colonial Latin America. . . . Metcalf
skillfully uses the history of one frontier region to illuminate the history of
southern Brazil. . . . She masterfully links her region to the general growth
and development of the Portuguese colony thereby demonstrating the strengths
which local history, case study, demography, and quantitative techniques can
make. This is an outstanding contribution to frontier history, family history,
and the social history of rural zones."--Americas" Metcalf's excellent,
carefully researched case study of rural life in colonial Portuguese Latin
America analyzes the process of family adaptation to a changing agricultural
frontier in what is now the prosperous state of Saõ Paulo. . . . The book should
interest not only students of Brazilian history but all those concerned with
such themes as slavery in the Western hemisphere, the role of women, men, and
children in a changing frontier society, and the fate of indigenous
populations."--Choice". . . meticulously researched, pioneering work . . . The
importance of Professor Metcalf's description and analysis of family and society
transcends Santana de Parnaíba in the colonial era, adding more tessera to the
mosaic of the economies and societies of Portuguese America and providing an
excellent historical framework for an understanding of modern Brazil."--Ethnohistory

Metcalf's excellent, carefully researched case study of rural life in colonial
Portuguese Latin America analyzes the process of family adaptation to a changing
agricultural frontier in what is now the prosperous state of S~ao Paulo. The
emphasis is on the inheritance of cultural attitudes and economic resources
amidst the struggle for family survival. Metcalf examines in depth the issue of
race, the role of colonial government, the origins of social class, families of
planters, and families of slaves. The study is based on manuscript censuses and
uses sophisticated statistical analysis. Handsomely printed and admirably
illustrated, the book should interest not only students of Brazilian history but
all those concerned with such themes as slavery in the Western hemisphere, the
role of women, men, and children in a changing frontier society, and the fate of
indigenous populations. This book complements nicely Dain Borges's recently
published study, The Family in Bahia, Brazil, 1870-1945 (1992) although the
latter book focuses on a later period. Graduate; faculty. R. M. Levine;

Synopsis: This volume contains a series of articles that examine the Roman
family in Italy and the empire using a wide range of evidence and considering a
number of critical issues. Its focus on regional differences in family
structure, forms of marriage, and kinship patterns make it the first publication
to include targeted study of the family in the Roman provinces. The chapters
cover Roman Egypt, Judaea, Spain, Gaul, North Africa, and Pannonia, and make use
of both conventional textual sources and epigraphic evidence and material that
is less frequently treated, including the medical writers and the Justinianic
receipts.

Synopsis: Central to this historical and comparative perspective on family
business are the reasons for its decline and persistence, how it evolved
historically, the different forms it has taken over time and how it has
contributed to the growth of single economies.
"In this new textbook, Andrea Colli gives a historical and
comparative perspective on family business, examining through time the different
relationships within family businesses and among family enterprises, inside
different political and institutional contexts. He compares the performance of
family businesses with that of other economic organisations, and looks at how
these enterprises have contributed to the evolution of contemporary industrial
capitalism. Central to his discussion are the reasons for both the decline and
persistence of family business, how it evolved historically, the different forms
it has taken over time, and how it has contributed to the growth of single
economies. The book summarises previous research into family business, and
situates many aspects of family business - such as their strategies,
contribution, failure, and decline - in an economic, social, political, and
institutional context. It will be of key interest to students of economic
history and business studies."--BOOK JACKET. Title Summary field provided by

Synopsis: Cindy Weinstein radically revises our understanding of
nineteenth-century sentimental literature. Arguing that these novels are far
more complex than critics have suggested, Weinstein expands the archive of
sentimental novels to include some of the more popular, though under-examined
writers, and shows how canonical texts can take on new meaning when read in the
context of these novels. She demonstrates the aesthetic and political
complexities of this influential genre and its impact on Stowe, Twain and
Melville.

services from 1902 until 1992, when the New Zealand Children and Young Persons
Service began. It explores all aspects of child welfare services, including
juvenile delinquency, youth justice, foster care, adoption, residential care,
and child abuse. These services are a unique form of social welfare which has
little in common with the benefits and pensions which characterise other areas
of New Zealand's welfare state." "By using government policy documents and
personal case files, Bronwyn Dalley combines an analysis of child welfare policy
with an examination of its effects on children and families."--BOOK JACKET.

Synopsis: Combines the popular interests of genealogy
and bookmaking Researching family history is the second most
popular topic on the Internet (after sex). With more than 4
billion records online today and more becoming available
everyday, the Internet is fueling the growth of this popular
hobby by simplifying the process of finding information and
connecting with individuals who share a common branch in their
family tree. This unique book combines the general surge of
interest in genealogy with the popularity of memory crafts and
book and journal making. The projects featured encompass many
mixed-media techniques and provide beautiful ideas for creating
family trees that will become family heirlooms and keepsakes.
Inspiring seasoned journal and memory crafters as well as
genealogy buffs, the book divides projects into three styles:
family trees designed to be hung as a piece of artwork on a
wall, family tree books and journals, and dimensional family
trees that take a more sculptural approach. Each project
includes clear and concise directions as well as tips about
story-telling, information gathering, and sidebars. Full-color
templates and clip art for various types of family trees are
also included.

way through the republican town of 1784-1829, the fragmented
city 1830-84 when photographs first began recording the city,
the immigrant metropolis of 1885 to 1939, the cosmopolitan
community to 1965, and the global village to the end of the
century. All the illustrations are black and white. Annotation

Synopsis: This is an accessible and modern guide to the hugely popular art
of tracing your family history. Published to tie in with the BBC2 series, the
book is packed with practical guidance on locating records and researching
different eras and topics. It also includes celebrity histories and a directory
of the best current Internet resources. Who Do You Think You Are? is a fresh,
contemporary take on family history and tracing your family tree. Suitable for
the hobbyist and the more experienced researcher, it incorporates both basic
information on tracing your ancestors plus theme-based sections allowing more
detailed and focused research to follow up on family stories and characters. The
first section of the book is a concise and comprehensive summary of basic
research tools - how to locate and use a range of records and information to
track down your family and to provide the framework for more detailed
research. The main part of the book looks at key themes such as social history,
occupations, military connections, immigration and emigration, and looking for
skeletons in the cupboard (bigamy, illegitimacy, lunacy and crime - far more
interesting than tracing your family back to William the Conqueror). With
information, tips and stories about the historical background and law changes of
the past, this is a fresh way of approaching family history and developing
research into the stories and characters unearthed. Finally, a comprehensive
resources section provides the most up-to-date sources for common themes and
localities - with assessments of the best Internet sources for all types of
research. Also featuring celebrity family history stories and lots of
extraordinary tales from ordinary people, this book is a fascinating practical
guide to this absorbing and intriguing hobby.

National Archives has 8-10,000 hits per day and recent figures show a 44%
increase on last year in family researchers on the Internet. - The BBC Who Do You
Think You Are? website received 2.5 million hits in the 2 days after the series
was launched. - Online promotions with popular family history websites; tie-ups
with the National Archives and cross promotions with CD-rom and DVD.
Every person in the world is a part of history, but many of us
do not know to what extent our family tree can be traced. This book explains how
to carry out your own genealogy project, perhaps revealing family history that
would otherwise have been overlooked.

Synopsis: Exposing the 'hidden' history of marital violence between the
Restoration and the mid-nineteenth century.
This book exposes the 'hidden' history of marital violence and
explores its place in English family life between the Restoration and the
mid-nineteenth century. In a time before divorce was easily available and when
husbands were popularly believed to have the right to beat their wives,
Elizabeth Foyster examines the variety of ways in which men, women and children
responded to marital violence. For contemporaries this was an issue that raised
central questions about family life: the extent of men's authority over other
family members, the limitations of women's property rights, and the problems of
access to divorce and child custody. Opinion about the legitimacy of marital
violence continued to be divided but by the nineteenth century ideas about what
was intolerable or cruel violence had changed significantly. This accessible
study will be invaluable reading for anyone interested in gender studies,
feminism, social history and family history.
1. Rethinking the histories of violence; 2: Resisting violence;
3. Children and marital violence; 4. Beyond conjugal ties and spaces; 5. The
origins of professional responses.

Synopsis: Mark D. Herber provides a comprehensive illustrated guide to
tracing British ancestry as far back as the Middle Ages. Chapters include advice
on obtaining information from relatives, drawing a family tree, and researching
census records.
Library Journal
March 1, 1998 0-8063-1546-6;
Herber's book is
billed as "the complete guide to British genealogy and family history," and that
is exactly what it is. Thoughtfully designed, this orderly, comprehensive, and
elegant work guides the researcher (beginner or advanced) through the entire
process of tracing British heritage, from obtaining information from living
relatives to drawing family trees and starting research in the birth, marriage,
death, or census records. Later chapters guide researchers to records that are
more difficult to find and use, such as wills, parish registers, civil and
ecclesiastical court records, poll books, and property records. Written for
practitioners by a practitioner (Herber is a member of the Society of
Genealogists in London), this complete, current, and beautiful guide ultimately
helps the researcher focus on how the ancestral trail begins and how to form a
coherent picture of past generations and their links to the present. Highly
recommended. Howells's Netting Your Ancestors, on the other hand, is less
elegant in delivering its guidance to genealogical research on the Internet. Nothing that it covers' the selection of hardware and software, getting a direct
internet connection, E-mail, mailing lists, and newsgroups' is tied uniquely to
genealogical research. In fact, a good 95 percent of the skills and tools it
covers could be gleaned just as effectively from any basic computer book. This
seems to be written as a how-to book' how to get to the author's popular web
site. Not recommended.' Scott Hightower, Gallatin/NYU

Synopsis: This volume contains a series of articles that examine the
Roman family in Italy and the empire using a wide range of evidence and
considering a number of critical issues. Its focus on regional differences in
family structure, forms of marriage, and kinship patterns make it the first
publication to include targeted study of the family in the Roman provinces. The
chapters cover Roman Egypt, Judaea, Spain, Gaul, North Africa, and Pannonia, and
make use of both conventional textual sources and epigraphic evidence and
material that is less frequently treated, including the medical writers and the
Justinianic receipts.
