And did army service, as a powerful form of industrial organization, help create Dubuque''s modern workforce?" "Warriors into Workers argues that the Union Army was both a social and a socializing institution, making significant but previously unexamined contributions to the formation of American industrial society. This book connects with the recent surge of interest in the social history of the Civil War, and addresses significant issues in labor and economic history, military history, community studies, political culture, and gender."--Jacket.

This is a book unlike any other; although it is a book of Hope. I address it to all believers who are suffering and/or hurting in their hearts and feel confused and even lost at times. The reason this writing is one of hope is because it contains the words of the Lord''s true virtue and character for all to plainly see. I will show you how God thinks and how that He created us in His Image and Likeness so that we could learn to think like Him if we so desired. I did desire to learn how to think like the Lord, and the Lord faithfully helped me work through my thoughts as He revealed His virtues and character-attributes to me in His word.I suffered for over 50 years in what I now know to be the thoughts of my broken heart, and only when God revealed His ways of thinking virtuously in His word to me did I finally begin to have hope that I could truly change the way I think. The Lord took me on a forty-two month journey through His virtues and character-attributes while I was suffering with a debilitating brain disease, and showed me how to learn to think with His virtues and make them my focus continually. I have since developed numerous positive ways of thinking using the Lord''s perfect virtues, and because the results have been nothing short of astounding to me and my family, I had to share with you at least some basic information surrounding this enormous subject.There truly is hope in the word of God; I found mine in the thoughts of the Father and His Son, our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. If this is your desire as well, then you are in for a wonderful journey with the Lord Jesus.

Iraq: Through the Eyes of an American Soldiercontains over 200 beautiful and thought provoking images as photographed by U.S. Staff Sergeant Russell Lee Klika during multiple deployments to Iraq with the U.S. National Guard, between 2002 and 2010. Risking his own life to capture glimpses of the war, the people, and the country --- and sometimes shooting his camera from the back of a speeding Humvee or while machine guns fired around him --- Klika''s work records history as it unfolds. With each image, Klika seeks to "highlight the humanity" in the moments and the faces of the people: US military personnel, Iraqi soldiers, and Iraqi civilians. With only minimal text, each page in this photo-collection lets the images speak for themselves.

In the late 1920s, Reimar Horten started experimenting with flying models equipped with fuselages, stabilizers, rudders, and elevators, but his life''s work involved systematically removing these components from the models until he could achieve flight with only the wing. Not only were the pure wings more difficult to design with the stability and control needed to fly, they were harder to place in practical roles not already filled by conventional aircraft operating for less support and operational costs. Always seeking to increase performance and efficiency, Horten adopted a multi-disciplinary approach after flying his first piloted wing in 1933, eventually breaking new ground in cockpit design and construction materials. His most important innovation was the unique pattern he developed to distribute the lift over his wings, the result of his efforts to refine the aerodynamic control of all-wing aircraft, often while working alone and in difficult circumstances. Two days after he passed away in 1993, the Royal Aeronautical Society awarded Reimar Horten the British Gold Medal for Outstanding Achievement in Aeronautics.
