For more than seventy years, authoritarian rule was the dominant form of government in sub-Saharan Africa. Three-quarters of African states have experienced some form of one-party or military rule since 1945. Accessible and engaging, Authoritarian Africa: Repression, Resistance, and the Power of Ideas is the first book to examine this subject from a historical perspective. Exploring the history and legacy of authoritarianism in Africa--from the colonial era until the onset of democracy in the early 1990s--it introduces students to the variety of authoritarian regimes that have existed on the continent, including one-party states, military rule, and personal dictatorships. This unique text also provides essential new insights, revising the traditional "story" of African authoritarianism by drawing on primary source materials (from songs to statistics) to provide a fresh, original perspective. Looking at what sustained authoritarian rule in Africa over more than a century, the authors consider the phenomenon on its own terms--not simply as a way station on the road to democracy--and in the context of the continent's social, political, intellectual, and economic history.

He has become the physical embodiment of their worst fears brought to fiendish life.Airship 27 now presents four brand new adventures of the creepiest pulp hero of them all, the Purple Scar!

[Excerpt from jacket flap] "At the age of fifty-six the Reverend Jonathan Fisher sat before a looking glass in his house in Blue Hill, Maine, and painted a picture of himself. It shows him keen-eyed, wrinkled, and intense, seated at a table with an open copy of the Bible in Hebrew." So Alice Winchester introduces us to an uncommon common man, the nineteenth century pastor of a little Maine town. More than his occupation or the locale might suggest. Fisher was a universal man-inventor, farmer, architect and builder, surveyor, linguist, naturalist. Above all he was an artist, translating his vision of the goodness and orderliness of God's creation into paintings and woodcuts. Made for his own enjoyment and that of his family and a few friends, Fisher's paintings have largely been preserved in the small community where he lived and worked for over forty years. This book, while it reveals Fisher's many-sided personality, is basically devoted to illustrating his work. The majority of his paintings are published here for the first time -the water colors from his notebooks, begun when he was an undergraduate at Harvard, and lovingly bound with his own hands; a selection of his most important paintings in oil; and many of the woodcuts with which he illustrated his books. Here, carefully recorded, with straightforward and painstaking realism, are Fisher's college and his village, the fruits of his garden, and the animals and birds of field and forest.
