IN THE THICK OF IT is a biographical sketch of a teenage boy forced to leave school as the Civil War is about to begin. Joining the Union Army as a drummer boy, he survives through three major campaigns over four years. Landing in the coal counties of Eastern Pennsylvania following the War, 18-year-old C. Ben Johnson builds a career at the confluence of the country's westward expansion, the birth of the industrial revolution, the rise of anthracite coal and the steel industry, the historic wave of European immigrants to work in the mines and mills, and the area's economic boom. Making effective use of superior writing and speaking skills, C. Ben Johnson devotes four decades to championing the betterment of workers of all walks of life and political persuasions, and to boosting the progress and prosperity of the communities around him. Without family or financial wealth or connections on which to draw, his leadership skills, diligence, and persuasive personality make C. Ben Johnson a positive and influential force in the region's economy and in the early labor union movement across the country.

As a confidant of the Queen, knighted for his service, Sir Robert Winchell had grown accustomed to powerful people seeking his counsel. So he was not surprised when the United States government asked him to investigate the death of Tyler Jefferson, president of the United States. Sir Robert's investigative and diplomatic skills were put to the test as he retraced the final days of the president-meeting with and investigating heads of foreign governments, and ultimately putting his own life in peril. Death Comes for the President will delight and shock.

The 18th century was a wealth of knowledge, exploration and rapidly growing technology and expanding record-keeping made possible by advances in the printing press. In its determination to preserve the century of revolution, Gale initiated a revolution of its own: digitization of epic proportions to preserve these invaluable works in the largest archive of its kind. Now for the first time these high-quality digital copies of original 18th century manuscripts are available in print, making them highly accessible to libraries, undergraduate students, and independent scholars. The Age of Enlightenment profoundly enriched religious and philosophical understanding and continues to influence present-day thinking. Works collected here include masterpieces by David Hume, Immanuel Kant, and Jean-Jacques Rousseau, as well as religious sermons and moral debates on the issues of the day, such as the slave trade. The Age of Reason saw conflict between Protestantism and Catholicism transformed into one between faith and logic -- a debate that continues in the twenty-first century.++++The below data was compiled from various identification fields in the bibliographic record of this title.
