.... revealed that at any one time between 15 and 30% of the English people claim they would prefer a republic, the majority uphold the traditional support of the monarchy, as has been the English custom for over a thousand years.

The quality of life throughout America was rapidly changing when Henry cast his critical eye on Concord. Where others saw progress and prosperity, he saw wastefulness and poverty. "We live meanly, like ants" (173). The transcendentalists were deeply concerned about the quality of life in Americ .....

.... example of a classic Hitchcock plot. The general idea of the plot is an innocent man is accused of a crime he did not commit and through a web of mystery, danger, action, and of course love he must find the true criminal. This plot came to be used in many of Hitchcock's films throughout his career both silent and "talkie". It was not long before Hitchcock came to be known as the "Master of Suspense". He was said to have "not only mastered the art of making films but he also mastered the task of taming his own raging imagination".
