The Battle of Lake Erie' by Charles Oscar Paullin contains A Collecion of Documents, chiefly by Commodore Perry including the Court-martial of Commander Barclay & the Court of Enquiry on Captain Elliott. This battle was the turning point of the war in the west. Previous to it, the American offensive campaign in that quarter had been uniformly unsuccessful. In the summer of 1812, General Isaac Hull, who had advanced into Canada and had besieged Malden, abandoned the siege, retreated to Detr...

The history of the Continental navy covers a period of ten years, extending from 1775 to 1785. During this time the Continental Congress made many experiments in naval legislation and devised several organs of naval administration. The first of these organs, with whose origin and work this chapter is concerned, was the Naval Committee. It lasted for only a few months. Its lineal successors, each of which will be duly considered, were the Marine Committee, the Board of Admiralty, and the Ag...

"The proudest day of my life was October 1, 1950. I marched with seeming multitudes across Tiananmen Square, exalting in China's independence from foreign controls. As the people raised their fists to Mao Zedong shouting Wansui, 'ten thousand year' - the traditional greeting for an emperor - I could not raise my fist. My euphoria lay not in finding another idol to bow down to, but in the fact that the Chinese people had 'stood up.' I felt some discomfort but kept my hand by my side. And at...

Leonard Bernstein is one of the most significant musicians in the history of the United States. He was the first conductor born in the United States and trained exclusively in his home country to develop an international profile. Most famous as music director of the New York Philharmonic from 1958 to 1969, Bernstein spent far longer as a guest conductor who developed substantive relationships with several major ensembles. He was a composer, conductor, and has made significant contributions...

This proceedings book contains selected and expanded contributions presented at the 9th International Symposium of Space Optical Instruments and Applications (ISSOIA 2024), held in Guangzhou, China, from 25 to 27 September 2024. The symposium was hosted by the Chinese Society of Astronautics and the International Joint Research Center for Space Optical Instruments, jointly hosted by the China Association of Remote Sensing Application and organized by the Beijing Institute and Space Mechani...

In recent years, space optical payloads have advanced toward higher spatial, temporal, radiometric, and spectral resolution, while becoming increasingly intelligent. The commercial remote sensing industry has made steady progress in expanding satellite systems and applications. Meanwhile, space optical remote sensing data has been widely applied to resource monitoring, meteorology, oceanography, environmental studies, disaster reduction, and many other fields.This proceedings volum...

Businesses continue to design and implement a variety of information systems that facilitate the creation, aggregation, and provision of product-related information in order to increase the role that quality information is playing in consumers’ decision-making processes. Consumer Information Systems and Relationship Management: Design, Implementation, and Use highlights empirical research, theoretical frameworks, and relevant models on the understanding and implementation of consumer infor...

Volume 54 of the Advances in Atomic, Molecular, and Optical Physics Series contains ten contributions, covering a diversity of subject areas in atomic, molecular and optical physics. The article by Regal and Jin reviews the properties of a Fermi degenerate gas of cold potassium atoms in the crossover regime between the Bose-Einstein condensation of molecules and the condensation of fermionic atom pairs. The transition between the two regions can be probed by varying an external magnetic fi...
