.... time, L.S.U. He would go on to become a very respected writer during his forty-year career. He would also win the Pulitzer Prize in 1970 for his book Huey Long (437). Williams main theme in is about the Civil War being the first modern war and Lincoln’s function in the position of President. He introduces the state of the Union army as one that has no shape to it. This includes the lack of any plan of attack, as the thought of war had not been translated into any type of scheme. The armies lacked organization and communication, and existing qualified generals were old and inept. The first task that Lincoln had was the immediate selection .....

.... who went with the French. The United State became involved in Vietnam because they believed that if all of the country fell under a Communist government, Communism would spread throughout Southeast Asia and then it would be all over the world. They could this the "domino theory". Then the US government supported the South Vietnamese government. The government's policies led to rebellion in the South while the NFL was in the North Vietnam's team. In 1940, the Japanese troops invaded French Indochina. Then the Vietnamese nationalists called the Viet Minh, began guerrilla warfare against Japan which got the US involved. The Viet Minh troops re .....

.... about how the American government was run, and how they dealt with the different Indian cultures. This book had a couple of interesting stories in it also. The dozens of cultures depicted in this book really made it somewhat interesting to read. One story that I truly liked in the book was that of Yellow Wolf. Yellow Wolf was an extremely strong and wise Cheyenne Indian. He was a man that was known for his leadership in battles with the Utes, Pawnees, Kiowas, and Comanches. Yellow Wolf also played an important role in helping William Bent, also known as “Little White Man�, as to where to set up his trading post along the river. After Ben .....

.... the years. This is seen now by looking at those cultures and groups of people that are consistently oppressed and whose tolerance level is dangerously low. An example of this is the Jewish people throughout history. The Celtic people were also highly independent. This characteristic became known as Celtic nature due to the fact that they were required to make the most of becoming a nomadic tribe at times. Due to the popularity of war and bloodshed the Celts had to become used to losing and winning, not only battles but members of the community also. Individual Celts became more individually independent and self-reliant do to the fact that loss was .....

.... existence. The deeper the relationship with nature, the deeper the understanding of the underlying mysteries of life. Romantic authors have a tendency to emphasize the uniqueness of the individual as a great source of literary inspiration, because like everything else occurring naturally the individual is part of nature. The romantics stand as ambassadors of intuition and defenders of the heart, challenging the supremacy of the reign of reason; willing to resign themselves to nature, solitude, and perhaps even to the melancholia of alienation. They also take a stand to never relinquish the sovereignty of their own souls and passions to the rules o .....

.... proletariate to unite and rebel against their selfish employers. It is my belief that Lenin had entirely good reasons for doing as he did, and felt he was helping the world as apposed to Adolf Hitler. Immediately after Lenin's death, a man very much the same in nature as Hitler, Stalin, came to control the Bolsheviks and throw Russia in a civil war in a quest for power. You now have two men of equal aspirations soon to be in control of two very similar governments. In any rise of power, there needs to be a period of careful planning requiring much thought. These two men had very little history with which to work w .....

.... long tradition of military service. His father, George Patton, was the son of a brigadier general in command of the 22d Virginia Regiment who was killed at the Battle of Winchester in the Civil War for the Confederacy. His mother, Ruth Wilson, was the daughter of a savage fighter nicknamed “Don Benito� who was very well known for once returning from a battle with Indians, with a basket full of the enemies heads. George Smith Patton Junior was born on November 11, 1885 in San Gabriel, California. Even though George grew up on his father ranch, he learned a lot of things. Here he was taught how to hunt, fish, sail, horseback ride and many things ab .....

.... of its own. France first turned to Russia then to Britain creating the Triple Entente. Now with forces in place on either side, nerves were frayed. What better question to ask next than why. Why were nerves frayed? The nations involved had large militaries. These nations were building large armies and enhancing the glories of war. After rationalizing a huge arms race, people were eager to put up large amounts of money to support their government’s vast military. Great Britain has always had a large navy. Germany decided it wanted a navy to rival Britain’s. When the people of Britain saw the buildup of Germany’s navy, they got scared and starte .....

.... people, regardless of race should be free and governed under the same laws. In the later part of the 1960's, Birmingham, Alabama, the home of King, was considered to be the most racially divided city in the South. "Birmingham is so segregated, we're within a cab ride of being in Johannesburg, South Africa", 1 when King said this he was only speaking half jokingly. In Birmingham the unwritten rule towards blacks was that "if the Klan doesn't stop you, the police will."2 When King decided that the time had come to end the racial hatred, or at least end the violence, he chose to fight in a non-traditional way. Rather than giving the white people the .....
