""A History of the Warfare of Science with Theology in Christendom"" is a two-volume book written by Andrew Dickson White. It explores the relationship between science and theology in the history of Christianity, focusing on the conflicts and tensions that have arisen between the two fields. The book covers a wide range of topics, including the Galileo affair, the rise of Darwinism, and the debates over the nature of the universe and the origins of life. White argues that there has been a long-standing conflict between science and theology in Christendom, with each side often viewing the other as a threat to its own authority and legitimacy. He also explores the ways in which this conflict has shaped the development of science and religion in the Western world. The book is a classic work of historical scholarship and remains an important resource for anyone interested in the history of science, religion, and the relationship between the two.This Is A New Release Of The Original 1896 Edition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

""A Letter To William Howard Russell, On Passages In His Diary North And South"" is a literary work written by Andrew Dickson White. The book is a critical analysis of William Howard Russell's diary, which he wrote during his travels in the United States during the American Civil War. White's book is a response to Russell's diary, which was published in 1863 and contained his observations and experiences of the war from both the Union and Confederate perspectives.In his letter, White challenges Russell's views on the war and offers his own perspective on the events that took place. He argues that Russell's diary is biased towards the Confederacy and that his reporting was influenced by his sympathy for the southern cause. White also criticizes Russell's portrayal of the Union army and its leaders, whom he believes were unfairly maligned in the diary.The book is an important historical document that sheds light on the attitudes and opinions of the time towards the American Civil War. It provides a valuable insight into the way in which the war was perceived by different individuals and how their views were shaped by their personal beliefs and experiences. The book is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of the American Civil War and the role of the media in shaping public opinion.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

As far back as just before our Civil War I made, in France and elsewhere, a large collection of documents which had appeared during the French Revolution, including newspapers, reports, speeches, pamphlets, illustrative material of every sort, and, especially, specimens of nearly all the Revolutionary issues of paper money, -from notes of ten thousand livres to those of one sou. Upon this material, mainly, was based a course of lectures then given to my students, first at the University of Michigan and later at Cornell University, and among these lectures, one on "Paper Money Inflation in France." This was given simply because it showed one important line of facts in that great struggle; and I recall, as if it were yesterday, my feeling of regret at being obliged to bestow so much care and labor upon a subject to all appearance so utterly devoid of practical value. I am sure that it never occurred, either to my Michigan students or to myself, that it could ever have any bearing on our own country. It certainly never entered into our minds that any such folly as that exhibited in those French documents of the eighteenth century could ever find supporters in the United States of the nineteenth.
