Ponteach, or the Savages of America A Tragedy

Ponteach, or the Savages of America A Tragedy
Tiffany Potter, "Ponteach, or the Savages of America: A Tragedy"
English | 2010 | ISBN: 0802095976, 0802098959 | EPUB | pages: 224 | 2.2 mb
Pontiac, or Ponteach, was a Native American leader who made war upon the British in what became known as Pontiac's Rebellion (1763 to 1766). One of the earliest accounts of Pontiac is a play, written in 1766 by the famous frontier soldier Robert Rogers, of the Rangers. Ponteach, or the Savages of America is one of the only early dramatic works composed by an author with personal knowledge of the Indigenous nations of North America. Important both as a literary work and as a historical document, Ponteach interrogates eighteenth-century Europe's widespread ideological constructions of Indigenous peoples as either innocent and noble savages, or monstrous and violent Others.

Pigeons The Fascinating Saga of the World's Most Revered and Reviled Bird

Pigeons The Fascinating Saga of the World's Most Revered and Reviled Bird
Andrew D. Blechman, "Pigeons: The Fascinating Saga of the World's Most Revered and Reviled Bird"
English | 2007 | ISBN: 0802143288, 0802118348 | 256 pages | EPUB | 1.8 MB
Pigeons have been worshipped as fertility goddesses and revered as symbols of peace. Domesticated since the dawn of man, they've been used as crucial communicators in war by every major historical superpower from ancient Egypt to the United States and are credited with saving thousands of lives. Charles Darwin relied heavily on pigeons to help formulate and support his theory of evolution. Yet today they are reviled as "rats with wings." Author Andrew D. Blechman traveled across the United States and Europe to meet with pigeon fanciers and pigeon haters in a quest to find out how we came to misunderstand one of mankind's most helpful and steadfast companions. Pigeons captures a Brooklyn man's quest to win the Main Event (the pigeon world's equivalent of the Kentucky Derby), as well as a convention dedicated to breeding the perfect bird. Blechman participates in a live pigeon shoot where entrants pay $150; he tracks down Mike Tyson, the nation's most famous pigeon lover; he spends time with Queen Elizabeth's Royal Pigeon Handler; and he sheds light on a radical "pro-pigeon underground' in New York City. In Pigeons, Blechman tells for the first time the remarkable story behind this seemingly unremarkable bird.
