Fighting for Canada; Seven Battles, 1758-1945
hat a delight this book is! I must confess, I felt much like a gourmand surveying a groaning table as I considered the mouthwatering, historical delicacies spread before me. Where to begin? The defence of NouvelleFrance? Armoured combat in Normandy? The Canadian infantryman’s war in the Dutch polders, the South African veldt or the Niagara farmlands? In any event, I started where best — at the beginning

While historians and social scientists emphasize the role of unit cohesion in battlefield success, they generally avoid the examination of how unit cohesion has been created. This article examines the battle of Lake Erie, 10 September 1813, in light of unit cohesion criteria. It concludes that while Master Commandant Oliver Hazard Perry and his captains created "vertical cohesion" (bonding between leaders and subordinates) within their respective…

T. ANNE's Church looked more like a barn than a place of worship. Only its 280 guinea organ received favorable comment from visitors. Around the edifice almost in [the] form of an 0 was an unpaved road. The rest of Annapolis was similarly unimpressive. It had a commanding view of the Chesapeake, but the town's bland architecture seemed to be awaiting the presence of William Buckland, whose craftsmanship would do much to make it the quaint city we…

On the other hand, Richard Beale Davis recently concluded that about I720 to I789, [the region contained] ... a strong expression of disc…

Origins of the southern mind: The parochial sermons of Thomas Cradock of Maryland, 1744–1770
This study examines the ideas in the parochial sermons of Thomas Cradock (1718–1770) of Baltimore County, Maryland. Cradock's pulpit rhetoric, following in the tradition of moderate Anglicanism as transported to the shores of the Chesapeake, expressed what Richard Weaver, a southern scholar, has called the “roots” of southern thinking—a feudal theory of society, a code of chivalry, an education of a gentleman, and an older religiousness—roots tha…
