Cloth, gilt cover-title, oblong 8vo, 20 x 24 cm, 176 pp, over 100 colour ills. From the blurb - "The history of the early Americas is a story of before and after, defined and divided by a pivotal moment of contact between two distinct cultures. On the European side it is a tale of exploration, high-stakes treasure-seeking, and conquest. For indigenous Americans - including the Maya, the Nahua, the Taino, and the Wari - it is the beginning of the end, a violent saga of disease, enslavement, and the loss of languages and rituals. This collision of cultures comes to life in the manuscripts, maps, archaeological objects, and rare books that maire up the collection of early American treasures in the Library of Congress in Washington, DC. Collecting for a New World relates these encounters through vivid illustrations and interpretive descriptions of more than 60 rare and priceless items. In describing for the first time the journeys of the objects themselves - via African shipwrecks, secret meetings on airstrips, discoveries in castle libraries, and journeys into unknown archaeological sites hidden deep in the jungles of Guatemala - curator John W. Hessler reveals the role played by private collectors, whose knowledge, vision, and - in many cases, philanthropy - contribute so significantly to the collective understanding and interpretation of history and culture.

This volume provides a valuable perspective on the current state of the field as reflected in multiple aspects of her work, including the nature and evolution of her interpretation of Soviet history; the impact of her scholarship on countless students; and the interaction of personality and individual experiences. Bringing together outstanding essays on such diverse aspects of the Stalin era as the Soviet monopoly on information and communication, violence in the Gulag, and gender relations after World War II, this volume both highlights Fitzpatrick's legacy and introduces readers to exciting new work in the field." -- Contents: Preface; 1 Writing Russia: The Work of Sheila Fitzpatrick / Ronald Grigor Suny; 2 Sheila Fitzpatrick: An Interpretive Essay / Julie Hessler; 3 The Two Faces of Tatiana Matveevna / Yuri Slezkine; 4 Military Occupation and Social Unrest: Daily Life in Russian Poland at the Start of World War I / Joshua Sanborn; 5 Seeing Like a Soviet State: Settlement of Nomadic Kazakhs, 1928-1934 / Matthew J.
