Road to Wigan Pier通往威冈码头之路(奥威尔成名之作)(ISBN=9780156767507) 英文原版
Although George Orwell grew up in the relative comfort of theEnglish middle class, his socialist convictions and general senseof fairness led him to hate his country's deeply ingrained classstructure. That perspective permeates this book, but the moststriking elements are the quotidian details of life that Orwellobserves in his first-person account of the lives of coal minersand others in the poor north of England. Wigan Pier isalmost too realistic at times, as Orwell brings his unparalleledpowers of observation to portray the wretched conditions of theworking class. That Orwell may have slanted his reporting to makethings look worse than they were is a question that does not lessenthe book's interest.

Homage to Catalonia(ISBN=9780156421171)
"I wonder what is the appropriate first action when you comefrom a country at war and set foot on peaceful soil. Mine was torush to the tobacco-kiosk and buy as many cigars and cigarettes asI could stuff into my pockets." Most war correspondents observewars and then tell stories about the battles, the soldiers and thecivilians. George Orwell--novelist, journalist, sometimesocialist--actually traded his press pass for a uniform and foughtagainst Franco's Fascists in the Spanish Civil War during 1936 and1937. He put his politics and his formidable conscience to thetoughest tests during those days in the trenches in the Catalansection of Spain. Then, after nearly getting killed, he went backto England and wrote a gripping account of his experiences, as wellas a complex analysis of the political machinations that led to thedefeat of the socialist Republicans and the victory of theFascists.

1491 (SECOND EDITION(ISBN=9781400032051)
In this groundbreaking work of science, history, andarchaeology, Charles C. Mann radically alters our understanding ofthe Americas before the arrival of Columbus in 1492.Contrary towhat so many Americans learn in school, the pre-Columbian Indianswere not sparsely settled in a pristine wilderness; rather, therewere huge numbers of Indians who actively molded and influenced theland around them. From the astonishing Aztec capital ofTenochtitlán, which had running water, immaculately clean streets,and was larger than any contemporary European city, to the Mexicancorn that was so carefully created in a specialized breedingprocess that it has been called man’s first feat of geneticengineering, Indians were not living lightly on the land but werelandscaping and manipulating their world in ways that we are onlynow beginning to understand. Challenging and surprising, this atransformative new look at a rich and fascinating world we onlythought we knew.

THIS REPUBLIC OF SUFFERING(ISBN=9780375703836)
From Publishers Weekly Battle is thedramatic centerpiece of Civil War history; this penetrating studylooks instead at the somber aftermath. Historian Faust ( Mothersof Invention ) notes that the Civil War introduced America todeath on an unprecedented scale and of an unnatural kind—grisly,random and often ending in an unmarked grave far from home. Shesurveys the many ways the Civil War generation coped with thetrauma: the concept of the Good Death—conscious, composed and atpeace with God; the rise of the embalming industry; the sadattempts of the bereaved to get confirmation of a soldier's death,sometimes years after war's end; the swelling national movement torecover soldiers' remains and give them decent burials; theintellectual quest to find meaning—or its absence—in the war'scarnage. In the process, she contends, the nation invented themodern culture of reverence for military death and used the fallento elaborate its new concern for individual rights.

PLAGUES AND PEOPLES(ISBN=9780385121224)
No small themes for historian William McNeill: he is a writerof big, sweeping books, from The Rise of the West to TheHistory of the World . Plagues and Peoples considers theinfluence of infectious diseases on the course of history, andMcNeill pays special attention to the Black Death of the 13th and14th centuries, which killed millions across Europe and Asia. (Atone point, writes McNeill, 10,000 people in Constantinople alonewere dying each day from the plague.) With the new crop of plaguesand epidemics in our own time, McNeill's quiet assertion that "inany effort to understand what lies ahead the role of infectiousdisease cannot properly be left out of consideration" takes on newsignificance.

The Vikings(ISBN=9780143118015)
Sporting monikers such as Sven Forkbeard and Harald Bluetooth,the Vikings left arresting traces in saga and chronicle, inaddition to their signature destruction and massacre. Fergusonsynthesizes Viking scholarship for a general audience and followsthe Vikings wherever they went. Spreading from Scandinavia, theyentered written records as a result of raids on Britain and Irelandin the late 700s; soon the divisive Carolingian empire, and theland that would become Russia, would experience the Viking scourgeas well. But along with slaves and booty came the encounter withChristianity, among whose proselytizers numbered the fearlessbelievers who brought the Gospel to worshippers of Odin and Thor.The pagan-Christian interface informs Ferguson’s narrative, and byemphasizing experiences of the conversion process by identifiableindividuals within a centuries-long direction of Vikings forsakingtheir old religion, the author textures the pillage that he assertsis necessary to a complete understanding of the Viking age.
