❤️ Amory-Appel Cottage 🐼

"The Amory-Appel Cottage is a historic house on the upland slopes of Mount Monadnock in Dublin, New Hampshire. Built in 1911 as a garage and chauffeur's house, it was remodeled c. 1954 into a Shingle style summer house. The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985. Description and history The Amory-Appel Cottage is located on the grounds of the former Amory country estate, a large tract of land rising on the northern slope of Mount Monadnock between Old Troy Road to the west and the mountain's Pumpelly Ridge to the east. It is accessed via a private road that snakes across the historic estate. It stands in a grassy clearing east of the site of the estate's main house (no longer extant). It is a 1-1/2 story wood frame structure, with a steeply pitched gabled roof and exterior finished in wooden shingles. The roof is pierced by small gabled dormers, and a square brick chimney rises above it. Most windows are small-paned sash. The cottage was built about 1911 to a design by Charles Goodell of Parsons, Wait & Goodell, originally to serve as a garage and chauffeur's residence for the Amorys. About 1954, Thomas Handasyd Cabot, a local builder-designer, remodeled it, replacing the original stone chimney with one of brick. It has elements of Shingle and Arts and Crafts styling reminiscent of the early work of Frank Lloyd Wright. At the time of its National Register listing in 1985, it was owned by a grandson of Louise Amory, the estate's principal developer.

❤️ War-weariness 🐼

"War-weariness is the public or political disapproval for the continuation of a prolonged conflict or war. The causes normally involve the intensity of casualties—financial, civilian, and military. It also occurs when a belligerent has the ability to leave the conflict easily but continues to stay. War-weariness normally leads to a distrust in government or military leadership and can spark protest and anti-war movements. It can also be fueled when a belligerent is found guilty of war crimes, which can create domestic and international backlash. Rates of enlistment and the morale of the armed- forces are often affected by war-weariness. War-weariness is less likely to appear in military dictatorships, especially those with heavy propaganda and censorship. According to Immanuel Kant, democratic nations have a better chance of having unpopular news of the war reach the masses, which increases their chance and level of war-weariness.
