Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Minor shelf wear, binding tight, pages clean and unmarked. This collection presents, for the first time, a much-needed synthesis of the major research themes and findings that characterize the Woodland Period in the southeastern United States.The Woodland Period (ca. 1200 B.C. to A.D. 1000) has been the subject of a great deal of archaeological research over the past 25 years. Researchers have learned that in this approximately 2000-year era the peoples of the Southeast experienced increasing sedentism, population growth, and organizational complexity. At the beginning of the period, people are assumed to have been living in small groups, loosely bound by collective burial rituals. But by the first millennium A.D., some parts of the region had densely packed civic ceremonial centers ruled by hereditary elites. Maize was now the primary food crop. Perhaps most importantly, the ancient animal-focused and hunting-based religion and cosmology were being replaced by solar and warfare iconography, consistent with societies dependent on agriculture, and whose elites were increasingly in competition with one another. This volume synthesizes the research on what happened during this era and how these changes came about while analyzing the period's archaeological record.In gathering the latest research available on the Woodland Period, the editors have included contributions from the full range of specialists working in the field, highlighted major themes, and directed readers to the proper primary sources. Of interest to archaeologists and anthropologists, both professional and amateur, this will be a valuable reference work essential to understanding the Woodland Period in the Southeast. …

Hardcover. Zustand: Very good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very good. First Printing [Stated]. xxviii, [2], 290 pages. Biographical Sketches. Footnotes. Illustrations. Notes. Bibliographical Essay. Index. Foreword by William E. Leuchtenburg. Introduction by John Q. Barrett. Robert H. Jackson was one of the giants of the Roosevelt era: an Attorney General, a revered Supreme Court Justice and one of Franklin Delano Roosevelt's close friends and advisers. This memoir of FDR, written before Jackson's untimely death, remained unpublished for fifty years. Here is that memoir. Written with skill and grace, this is truly a unique account of the personality, conduct, character, and humanity of "that man in the White House," as conservatives called FDR. Jackson eloquently provides an insider's view of Roosevelt's presidency, including such crucial events as FDR's Court-packing plan, his battles with corporate America, his decision to seek a third term, and his move to aid Britain in 1940 with American destroyers. He offers a personal portrait of Roosevelt--on fishing trips, in poker games, or approving legislation while eating breakfast in bed. We meet a president who is far-sighted but nimble in attacking the problems at hand; principled but flexible; charismatic and popular but unafraid to pick fights, take stands, and when necessary, make enemies. That Man is not simply a valuable historical document, but an engaging and insightful look at one of the most remarkable men in American history. In reading this memoir, we gain not only a new appreciation for Roosevelt, but also admiration for Jackson, who emerges as both a public servant of great integrity and fair-minded observer of politics at the highest level. John Q. Barrett is St. John's University's Benjamin N. Cardozo Professor of Law. He teaches Criminal Procedure: Investigation, Constitutional Law and Legal History courses. Professor Barrett also is the Elizabeth S. Lenna Fellow at the Robert H. Jackson Center in Jamestown, New York. He is a graduate of Georgetown University and Harvard Law School, a former U.S. government lawyer and investigator, and a prominent public lecturer and regular media commentator on law, government, and history topics. Professor Barrett is writing a biography of the late U.S. Supreme Court Justice and Nuremberg prosecutor Robert H, Jackson (1892-1954). It will include the first inside account of Justice Jackson's service, by appointment of President Truman, as the chief prosecutor at Nuremberg, Germany, following World War II, of principal surviving Nazi leaders. William Edward Leuchtenburg (; September 28, 1922 - January 28, 2025) was an American historian who was the William Rand Kenan Jr. Professor of History at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, and a leading scholar of the life and career of Franklin Delano Roosevelt. He was a president of the American Historical Association, the Organization of American Historians, and the Society of American Historians. Eric Foner is the only other historian to claim that distinction. Derived from a Kirkus review: Intelligent, informed thoughts on FDR's presidency by a close associate: Solicitor General, Attorney General, and finally Supreme Court Justice Jackson (1892-1954). Written in the early 1950s but only recently discovered by editor Barrett among Jackson's personal papers, the manuscript considers FDR in separate chapters as a politician, lawyer, commander-in-chief, administrator, economist, leader, and friend. Although the text has a finished quality, it also has the brevity of quick notes jotted down with examples of Roosevelt's strengths and weaknesses in each department. Jackson promises readers the "testimony of an interested witness" and takes seasoned measure of a man so often "the subject of undiscriminating idolatry or of unreasoning hate." What the author saw was a self-confident gentleman, brimming with intellectual capital, informal but dignified, capable of being mercurial and of trespassing on legislative turf, as when he tried to remove policymakers outside executive.

Hardcover. Zustand: Very good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very good. First Printing [Stated]. xxviii, 290 pages. Foreword by William E. Leuchtenburg. Introduction by John Q. Barrett. Illustrations. Biographical Sketches includes brief write-ups from pages 173-212. Notes. Bibliographical Essay. Index. Inscribed and dated by the Editor on title page. Inscription reads: For Philip, with best regards, John Q. Barrett 111/24/2003. John Q. Barrett is a Professor of Law at St. John's University in New York City, where he teaches Constitutional Law, Criminal Procedure, and Legal History. Professor Barrett also is the Elizabeth S. Lenna Fellow and a Board member at the Robert H. Jackson Center in Jamestown, New York. He is a graduate of Georgetown University and Harvard Law School. Professor Barrett discovered and edited Jackson's previously unknown manuscript, now an acclaimed book, That Man: An Insider's Portrait of Franklin D. Roosevelt (Oxford University Press). That Man, an eloquent memoir of FDR from Jackson first meeting him in 1911 through their close working relationship and friendship during the New Deal years, and World War II, is both FDR biography and Jackson autobiography. Before joining the St. John's faculty, John Q. Barrett was Counselor to Inspector General Michael R. Bromwich, U.S. Department of Justice, from 1994-95. From 1988-93, Barrett was Associate Counsel in the Office of Independent Counsel Lawrence E. Walsh (Iran/Contra). From 1986-88, Barrett was a law clerk to Judge A. Leon Higginbotham, Jr., of the United States Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit. William Edward Leuchtenburg (born 1922) is the William Rand Kenan Jr. professor emeritus of history at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.[3] He is a leading scholar of the life and career of Franklin Delano Roosevelt. Derived from a Kirkus review: Intelligent, informed thoughts on FDR's presidency by a close associate: Solicitor General, Attorney General, and finally Supreme Court Justice Jackson (1892-1954). Written in the early 1950s but only recently discovered by editor Barrett among Jackson's personal papers, the manuscript considers FDR in separate chapters as a politician, lawyer, commander-in-chief, administrator, economist, leader, and friend. Although the text has a finished quality, it also has the brevity of quick notes jotted down with examples of Roosevelt's strengths and weaknesses in each department. Jackson promises readers the "testimony of an interested witness" and takes seasoned measure of a man. What the author saw was a self-confident gentleman, brimming with intellectual capital, informal but dignified, capable of being mercurial and of trespassing on legislative turf, as when he tried to remove policymakers outside executive agencies. Jackson unveils episodes of step-by-step policy formation, as when the administration exchanged destroyers for naval and air stations in the Atlantic, bypassing Congressional approval. He also points out, again with examples, Roosevelt's shortcomings: FDR was "impatient of the slow and exacting judicial process" and Jackson remarks that, for someone who effected radical changes on the economic landscape, his friend's vision "did not impress me as being grounded in economic theory or practice." Rather, FDR made his decisions based on political judgment and social philosophy, which he was able to communicate to the man on the street. Jackson writes smoothly and manages to compress many angles of complex material into a brief text. This is an intimate look into the way decisions were made brings Roosevelt very much into human focus. …
