Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One man's struggle to accept his wife's death, and the cost of bringing her back to life. While in the process of bringing his wife, Sandra, back to the living, Arthur journals about moments from his past that changed him. During the journal writing, he rediscovers how, as an orphan, his ability to animate objects and people to life may have ultimately destroyed the lives of the few who grew close to him. The old stuffed teddy bear that helped him assemble puzzles when he was a child might have been too much of a secret for his adoptive mother to keep. His friend Quincy, who had abilities similar to his, might have been scared away by Arthur’s abilities. And his grade school teacher is still harboring a secret about his biological father that she can only hope to be true. Once Sandra is alive again, things become more complicated. She claims Arthur is not who, or what he thinks he is. Her ire shines a spotlight on the insidious but most likely true, unspoken nature of their relationship. In the meantime, a mysterious smell envelopes the community—a stench so heinous it can be fatal. As the number of deaths from the stench mounts, Arthur must decide who to animate back to life and who remains dead.
Download or read book Arthur Lowe a Life written by Stephen Lowe and published by Theatre Communications Group. This book was released on 1996 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The early career of Arthur Lowe (1915-1982) was that of a typical struggling actor. First the army (No. 2 Field Entertainment Unit), then years of weekly rep. His 'big break' came in 1952 when he played Senator Brockbank in the London premiere of Irving Berlin's Call Me Madam. Then Pal Joey, then The Pajama Game. And all the time, bits on radio and television, character roles in Ealing Comedies and, repeatedly, TV commercials. In 1961 a new TV soap, rather experimental, was launched in Manchester. Arthur played Leonard Swindley. The soap was Coronation Street, and Arthur became a household face. He kept faith with 'serious acting, appearing at the National in Shakespeare, at the Royal Court in plays by John Osborne and Edward Bond, and in a string of films of Lindsay Anderson, This Sporting Life, If..., O Lucky Man. But television loved his comic genius, and Captain Mainwaring beckoned. Arthur made 81 episodes of Dad's Army in nine years... This candid and touching biography gives us Arthur from the inside - the loving husband, the pompous father, the passionate amateur sailor - but also the hard-working actor, going off to the theatre each night, regular as clockwork, with his sandwiches in a lunch-box. For the author, Arthur's only son, now 43, the book has been a journey of discovery, a voyage round his father, and there is a terrific poignancy as he unearths the man he only partly knew.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the early 1900s, Huntsville, Alabama, had more spindles than any other city in the South. Cotton fields and mills made the city a major competitor in the textile industry. Entire mill villages sprang up around the factories to house workers and their families. Many of these village buildings are now iconic community landmarks, such as the revitalized Lowe Mill arts facility and the Merrimack Mill Village Historic District. The "lintheads," a demeaning moniker villagers wore as a badge of honor, were hard workers. Their lives were fraught with hardships, from slavery and child labor to factory fires and shutdowns. They endured job-related injuries and illnesses, strikes and the Great Depression. Author Terri L. French details the lives, history and legacy of the workers.
