Free Download Nick Yablon, "Untimely Ruins: An Archaeology of American Urban Modernity, 1819-1919"
English | 2009 | pages: 397 | ISBN: 0226946630, 0226946649 | PDF | 4,2 mb
American ruins have become increasingly prominent, whether in discussions of "urban blight" and home foreclosures, in commemorations of 9/11, or in postapocalyptic movies. In this highly original book, Nick Yablon argues that the association between American cities and ruins dates back to a much earlier period in the nation’s history. Recovering numerous scenes of urban desolation-from failed banks, abandoned towns, and dilapidated tenements to the crumbling skyscrapers and bridges envisioned in science fiction and cartoons-Untimely Ruins challenges the myth that ruins were absent or insignificant objects in nineteenth-century America.

English | July 19, 2007 | ASIN: B000U0ELKU | M4B@64 kbps | 12h 21m | 339 MB
Author: Ronald Spector | Narrator: Michael Prichard
Americans are accustomed to thinking that World War II ended on August 14, 1945, when the Japanese surrendered unconditionally. Yet on the mainland of Asia, in the vast arc stretching from Manchuria to Burma, peace was a brief, fretful interlude. In some parts of Asia, such as Java and Southern Indonesia, only a few weeks passed before new fighting broke out between nationalist forces and the former colonial powers. In China, a fragile and incomplete peace lasted only a few months, and peace fared no better in Northern Indochina and Korea.
