The Rebellions of 1837–1838 were two armed uprisings that took place in Lower Canada (now Quebec and Labrador) and Upper Canada (now Ontario) in 1837 and 1838. The rebellions were motivated by frustrations over lack of political reform. A key goal was responsible government, which was eventually achieved in the incidents' aftermath. "The people of Canada today are able to combine loyalty and liberty as the men of that day were not; and they should never forget that in some measure they owe to the one party (the "Bureaucrats") the continuance of Canada in the Empire, and to the other party (...

William Holden Hutton (1860-1930) was a British historian and Dean of Winchester Cathedral. In this slim volume, Hutton writes of the long period of feudal anarchy following the death of King Henry I in 1135, during which Henry's implacable daughter, Mathilda, battled the ineffectual King Stephen. Hutton then describes the turbulent reign of the great King Henry II, the reigns of Kings Richard, John, Henry III, and of the first two Edwards, rulers who whether weak or strong, rigid or resourceful, were grimly opposed by their powerful barons. - Summary by Pamela Nagami

Multi-volume work on science edited by Francis Rolt-Wheeler. The eighth volume is on Pure Mathematics written by L. Leland Locke and on Mathematical Applications written by Dr. Franz Bellinger.

For the past several decades, mathematicians did roughly what they'd always done, they sat in rooms, filled chalkboards, and published papers, the day-to-day practice of research mathematics was stagnant from one generation to the next. That era is now ending. Since the beginning of this year, AI systems have disproved open conjectures, solved problems thought to be beyond reach, and synthesized results across fields that no single human could hold in their head. Begin Proof is a long-form conversation series with the people at the frontier of this shift, including the researchers building the...

Mathematics vs. poetry: Brainy and beautiful 17-year-old Lillie, determined to never marry, begins an Old Maids' Club, while patient young Lord Silverdale advises, observes, and writes appropriate poetry.

This work describes conditions and forces the black population of the South faced after freedom was brought by the Civil War. As Sinclair puts it at the outset of his book, ". . . the chief efforts of Southern leadership have been to curtail the freedom of the colored people, to minimize their liberty and reduce them as nearly as possible to the condition of chattel slaves." - Summary by Jim Locke
