4 BROWN, PETER. Poverty And Leadership In The Later Roman Empire.
Brandeis University Press, Waltham / University Press of New England, Hanover: 2001. 1584651458 / 9781584651451 h Hardcover, no dustjacket (as issued). Brand new book. 
A preeminent classical scholar on the emergence of one of our most familiar social divisions. In three magisterial essays, Peter Brown, one of the world's foremost scholars of the society and culture of late antiquity, explores the emergence in late Roman society of "the poor" as a distinct social class, one for which the Christian church claimed a special responsibility. It is the story of how a society came to see itself as responsible for the care of a particular class of people - a class that had not previously been cared for - and of who benefited from that shift in interests. In his characteristically elegant and lucid prose, Brown seeks to recover the pre-Christian status of poor people, the actual nature of the relations between the Christian church and the poor, and the true motivations - sometimes sincere, sometimes self-serving - behind Christian rhetoric of love for the poor. He draws not only on the standard Greek and Latin sources for the later Roman Empire, but also on Jewish sources to document the interactions between Middle Eastern provincial societies and classical Roman traditions. Brown gracefully illuminates a crucial transition from classical to Christian culture: the emergence of a new understanding of what society - and the Church - owes to the poor that continues to resonate. Peter Brown, Rollins Professor of History at Princeton University, is a leading authority on the society of late antiquity and early Christianity. He is author of Augustine of Hippo: A Biography (1967, 2000), The Rise of Western Christendom (1996), Authority and the Sacred (1995), and The Body and Society: Men, Women, and Sexual Renunciation in Early Christianity (1988). "The three essays that make up Poverty and Leadership in the Later Roman Empire, originally delivered as the Menahem Stern Lecture at Jerusalem in May of 2000, are the most concerted analytic attack yet offered by any ancient historian on the problem of poverty."ÑNew York Review of Books

6 SIEPEL, KEVIN H; MCCARTHY, SENATOR EUGENE (FOREWORD); BROWN, PETER A (NEW INTRODUCTION); COOLING, BENJAMIN FRANKLIN (NEW INTRODUCTION). Rebel: The Life And Times Of John Singleton Mosby.
University of Nebraska Press, Lincoln: 2008. s Softcover. Brand new book. 
Rebel is the first complete biography of the Confederacy's best-known partisan commander, John Singleton Mosby, the "Gray Ghost." A practicing attorney in Virginia and at first a reluctant soldier, in 1861 Mosby took to soldiering with a vengeance, becoming one of the Confederate army's highest-profile officers, known especially for his cavalry battalion's continued and effective harassment of Union armies in northern Virginia. Although hunted after the war and regarded, in fact, as the last Confederate officer to surrender, he later became anathema to former Confederates for his willingness to forget the past and his desire to heal the nation's wounds. Appointed U.S. consul in Hong Kong, he soon initiated an anticorruption campaign that ruined careers in the Far East and Washington. Then, following a stint as a railroad attorney in California, he surfaced again as a government investigator sent by President Theodore Roosevelt to tear down cattlemen's fences on public lands in the West. Ironically, he ended his career as an attorney in the U.S. Department of Justice. Kevin H. Siepel is also the author of Joseph Bennett of Evans and the Growing of New York's Niagara Frontier. Eugene McCarthy (1916-2005) represented Minnesota in both House and Senate and played a key role in the presidential race of 1968. Peter A. Brown is the editor of Take Sides with the Truth: The Postwar Letters of John Singleton Mosby to Samuel F. Chapman.

12 ADAIR, JOHN (TEXT); CHEZE-BROWN, PETER (PHOTOGRAPHS). The Pilgrims' Way: Shrines And Saints In Britain And Ireland.
Thames and Hudson, London: 1978. 0500250618 / 9780500250617 First Edition (Unstated). h Hardcover with dustjacket. Good condition. 
The roads of medieval Britain and Ireland were thronged with pilgrims, most of them going on the longest journey in their lives. Chaucer's Canterbury Tales introduce us to a band traveling to the famous shrine of St. Thomas Becket at Canterbury; others sought more humble sacred places, such as the cell of a Celtic hermit, or a holy well. This book is intended to serve as a guide to those who wish to follow in the pilgrims' footsteps, in fact or in imagination, from London to the West Country, in East Anglia and along the Roman roads through the Midlands, to Durham and beyond the hills of Wales, and finally to Scotland and across the sea to Ireland.
