réf. B9780761872511Paperback / softback. New. UnwrittenTruce is a powerful depiction of Black Americans' struggle for equality told through the lens of uniformed military service. Mosley uses superb story-telling personal vignettes and historical examples to show how millions of Americans have lifted themselves from oppression through opportunities gleaned from military service. Collectively these efforts exerted positive outward pressure on American society and by in large has resisted all forms of social change. One of the unique aspects of combat is that rarely are Americans more equal than when thrust into harms way. It has been said there are no atheists in combat; similarly racism sexism and homophobia quickly go by the wayside when under enemy fire.Yet in the 19th century and well into the 21st century America's military policies regarding the use of manpower could best be described as an awkward attempt to balance the requirement to win the nation's wars while supporting a socio-political caste system. President Harry Truman signed Executive Order 9981 on July 26 1948 in response to police violence perpetrated against Black veterans. His actions broke this trend and set the military on the path to true meritocracy. Today retired general Lloyd Austin is the first black American Secretary of Defense in part due to the barriers broken down by men and women who served before him. The armed services fiercely resisted integration gender equality and LGBTQ equality but over time have grown to value America's well spring of diversity as a strategic and operational advantage. Under the Trump administration many of the military's policies supporting transgender inclusion were reversed making the U.S. military one of many institutions caught in the ideological tug of war regarding social change which is at the heart of the present day American polarization. For as far as America has come we still have work to do for Truman's vision of equality of opportunity to become a reality for all Americans. Join this thought-provoking narrative that celebrates the brave American military pioneers and challenges us all to continue the push for a better expression of America. paperback

Dust jacket not price clipped or marked or torn or creased but well-sunned to lower two inches of rear cover. 357pp. Homer's Iliad which tells the story of Achilles, the Greeks and the Trojan War.
1962War is raging between the Greeks and the Trojans, and Achilles, the great champion of the Greek army, is angrily sulking in his tent and refusing to fight after a furious rove with his commander, Agamemnon. But when the Trojan prince Hector kills Achilles' beloved friend, Achilles plunges back into the battle to seek his bloody revenge. even though he knows it will bring about his own doom. Robert Graves's gripping retelling of The Iliad uses dark, satirical humour to take a revered epic back yo its roots as popular entertainment, portraying a world of quarrelling kings and tarnished heroes, who leave suffering women behind them and are watched over by cunning gods and goddesses.
