Slavery and freedom on the Middle Ground

Maryland during the Nineteenth Century. Paperback, Very Good. Probing the relationships among Maryland’s slaves and free blacks, its slaveholders, and its non-slaveholders, Fields shows how centrist moderation turned into centrist immoderation under the stress of the Civil War and how social channels formed by slavery established the course of struggle over the shape of free society. In so doing, she offers historical reflections on the underlying character both of slave society and of the society that replaced it. In this prizewinning history, Fields shows how Maryland’s centrist moderation turned into centrist immoderation under the stress of the Civil War and argues that Reconstruction proved to be at least as difficult in Maryland as in the Confederacy.

This biography of the major English conductor Adrian Boult offers a searching account of his long and complex life. The author had access to Boult’s private papers, letters and diaries to research this portrait which traces the composer’s life from his school days through to his friendships with Elgar, Holst and Vaughan Williams. There are also lesser known and surprising aspects – his unpredictable temper, his distrust and dislike of Beecham and the mutual bitternesss between Boult and Britten. Michael Kennedy has been a music critic of the Daily Telegraph for over 35 years and has written biographical studies of Elgar, Vaughan Williams, Britten, Mahler, Strauss and Barbirolli and is editor of the Oxford Dictionary of Music. He was awarded the OBE for services to music in 1981.
