New York: Routledge, 2009. Presumed First Paperback Edition, First printing. Trade paperback. xi, 421, [7] pages. Cover has some wear. Figures. Illustrations. Notes. Index. Some ink underling, marks and comments noted. In Place, Race, and Story, author Ned Kaufman has collected his own essays dedicated to the proposition of giving the next generation of preservationists not only a foundational knowledge of the field of study, but more ideas on where they can take it. Through both big-picture essays considering preservation across time, and descriptions of work on specific sites, the essays in this collection trace the themes of place, race, and story in ways that raise questions, stimulate discussion, and offer a different perspective on these common ideas. Including unpublished essays as well as established works by the author, Place, Race, and Story provides a new outline for a progressive preservation movement--the revitalized movement for social progress. Dr. Ned Kaufman is principal of Kaufman Heritage Conservation and Adjunct Professor of Historic Preservation at Columbia University. He participated in the 2017 HP Hybrid Field School and agreed to share his thoughts on the future of historic preservation. Previously, Dr. Kaufman served as director of historic preservation at the Municipal Art Society of New York, where he led campaigns to protect the African Burial Ground, Audubon Ballroom, Ellis and Governors Islands, and other historic sites.

Philadelphia, PA: Basic Books, 2014. First Printing [Stated]. Hardcover. xv, [1], 256 pages. Includes Introduction, Prologue, New York at Roosevelt's Birth; Roosevelt at Harvard; 1881: A Year in New York; Roosevelt's Work in the New York Assembly; Roosevelt's Trips West; Roosevelt's 1886 Bid for Mayor; Roosevelt as Civil Service Commissioner; Roosevelt as Police Commissioner; Assistant Secretary of the Navy, War in Cuba, and Roosevelt's Path to Albany; Roosevelt, Thomas Platt, and the New York Governorship; and The New York President. Also contains Epilogue, Acknowledgments, Bibliography, and Index. The author argues that Roosevelt, vigorously attached to New York, never left home in his heart and mind. From the moment he was first elected to public life, Roosevelt learned from the city's people, its streets, and its politicos. His apprenticeship in New York made him a seasoned leader, and more than prepared him for his tasks as president. More

Danbury, Connecticut: Rutledge Books, Inc., 2001. Presumed First Edition, First printing. Hardcover. xiv, 507, [7] pages. Illustrations. Signed by the author, Bill McCullough, with sentiment on the half-title page. Includes Dedication, Introduction, and Foreword, as well as 24 chapters. Minuteman/Activist tells how the author's innovative ideas for resolving problems connected with public safety produced a high level of cooperation from the civilian population during the military occupation of Germany from 1945-1948. His experiences as a judge in military government court and as a member of a denazification board will very likely provide unusually interesting reading. Allied-occupied Germany was the administration of Germany from the 1945 defeat of Nazi Germany in World War II until the founding of East and West Germany in 1949. The victorious Allies asserted joint authority and sovereignty over Germany as a whole, defined as all territories of the former German Reich west of the Oder–Neisse line, having declared the destruction of Nazi Germany at the death of Adolf Hitler (the 1945 Berlin Declaration). The four powers divided "Germany as a whole" into four occupation zones for administrative purposes under the three Western Allies (the United States, the United Kingdom, France) and the Soviet Union, respectively. This division was ratified at the August 1945 Potsdam Conference. The four zones were agreed by the United States, United Kingdom and Soviet Union at the February 1945 Yalta Conference, setting aside an earlier division into three zones (excluding France) proposed by the September 1944 London Protocol.

The copyright is held by Annette Brafman Meyers and Martin Meyers. Annette Meyers (born Annette Brafman; January 31, 1934) is an American mystery writer. She also writes under the shared pseudonym Maan Meyers with her writing partner and husband, Martin Meyers. Annette Brafman was born in New York City on January 31, 1934. She attended Douglass College, where she earned an A.B. in English 1955. She worked as an assistant for Harold Prince from 1960 to 1976, raising funds to help him produce notable musicals including Fiddler on the Roof, Company, Follies, and A Little Night Music. She married Martin Meyers, a writer an actor. Meyers quit working for Prince in order to focus on her writing career. However, she struggled, so she worked as a recruiter on Wall Street. Then she had the idea to write a mystery that incorporated her theatre and Wall Street careers. The resulting book, The Big Killing, was released in 1989. Meyers is known for her Smith and Wetzon series and Olivia Brown series as well as the Dutchman series she wrote with her husband, Martin Meyers, published under the pseudonym Maan Meyers.
