Download or read book The Old Plow Horse Himself written by C O Jones and published by Unlimited Publishing LLC. This book was released on 2005-06-15 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I'm not one of the Jones boys, I'm the old plow horse himself, wrote C.O. Jones, in this colorful autobiography. This book contains the ancestry, autobiography and progeny of C.O. Jones, as written in 1960, brimming with colorful characters and situations. This book is not just for family members, but for anyone interested in rural America from 1900 to 1960. It serves up a slice of homespun Americana written with a keen eye for detail, and devilish wit. Excerpt: She was an ill-tempered, irascible and partially crippled woman. She used a cane to get around; however, the cane was used more for chastising than walking. The son of a dirt-poor Indiana farmhand, Jones was a farmer, a storekeeper, a railroad man and a postal inspector who eventually assumed surprising responsibilities for a man of humble beginnings and limited formal education. Most of all he was a hard-working American, who sheltered a wife and five children through the Great Depression, and on to brighter futures. His children and grandchildren went on to remarkable accomplishments for a family of modest origins, inheriting drive and determination from their ancestor. From horse-drawn carriages to Man's first steps on the moon, C.O. Jones experienced a lifetime of incredible change, preserved here in print for generations to come.
Download or read book John Deere s Steel Plow written by Edward C. Kendall and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2021-04-25 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1837 John Deere invented the steel plow that could be used in the sticky, root-filled soil of the prairie. Deere's creation succeeded because, as the durable steel share of the plow cut through the heavy earth, the damp mud could find no place to stick on its polished surfaces. This work will make a fun read for people interested in learning about less discussed innovations.

Download or read book Heroine of the Harlem Renaissance and Beyond written by Belinda Wheeler and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 2018-05-17 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poet, columnist, artist, and fiction writer Gwendolyn Bennett is considered by many to have been one of the youngest leaders of the Harlem Renaissance and a strong advocate for racial pride and the rights of African American women. Heroine of the Harlem Renaissance and Beyond presents key selections of her published and unpublished writings and artwork in one volume. From poems, short stories, and reviews to letters, journal entries, and art, this collection showcases Bennett’s diverse and insightful body of work and rightfully places her alongside her contemporaries in the Harlem Renaissance—figures such as Zora Neale Hurston, Langston Hughes, and Countee Cullen. It includes selections from her monthly column “The Ebony Flute,” published in Opportunity, the magazine of the National Urban League, as well as newly uncovered post-1928 work that proves definitively that Bennett continued writing throughout the following two decades. Bennett’s correspondence with canonical figures from the period, her influence on Harlem arts institutions, and her political writings, reviews, and articles show her deep connection to and lasting influence on the movement that shaped her early career. An indispensable introduction to one of the era’s most prolific and passionate minds, this reevaluation of Bennett’s life and work deepens our understanding of the Harlem Renaissance and enriches the world of American letters. It will be of special value to scholars and readers interested in African American literature and art and American history and cultural studies.
