Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Catharine Hertzler's Journey tells the story of a 19th century Mennonite wife who traveled by wagon from Lancaster, Pennsylvania with her husband Daniel to Springfield, Ohio. She was the mother of ten children, but only three outlived their parents. Her struggles with the Mennonite lifestyle, a stern husband and the joys and the trials of motherhood are the basis for this story. During her life she experienced the building of the National Road, the birth of railway travel, and the Civil War. Historical events as well as facts related to the Hertzler family form the backbone of this novel of historical fiction. Throughout the book, Catharine's thoughts are on her ever-increasing family and her duties as a Mennonite wife. The historical events which are interspersed throughout the story put Catharine Hertzler's life in perspective to the 19th century. The names of some of the characters are names from the author's family, and all the Hertzler names and dates are based on fact. The story is told using research on a woman's role in the 19th century and the author's imagination. Barbara Studebaker Arnold is a retired Language Arts school teacher with an avid interest in history. She is a member of the Hertzler House Advisory Committee which is dedicated to the protection and preservation of the Daniel Hertzler House, a Pennsylvania bank-style home built in 1854 by a Mennonite entrepreneur from Lancaster, Pennsylvania. Her interest in the history of this family led her to explore more about the Mennonites, the history of the Clark County and Springfield, Ohio areas and the life style of women in the 1800's. The result of her interest and research became the foundation for this book, Catharine Hertzler's Journey.

This book was released on 2017-06-22 with total page 556 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What did you eat for dinner today? Did you make your own cheese? Butcher your own pig? Collect your own eggs? Drink your own home-brewed beer? Shanty bread leavened with hops-yeast, venison and wild rice stew, gingerbread cake with maple sauce, and dandelion coffee – this was an ordinary backwoods meal in Victorian-era Canada. Originally published in 1855, Catharine Parr Traill’s classic The Female Emigrant’s Guide, with its admirable recipes, candid advice, and astute observations about local food sourcing, offers an intimate glimpse into the daily domestic and seasonal routines of settler life.

In a distinctive and witty voice expressing her can-do attitude, Catharine Parr Traill’s The Female Emigrant’s Guide unlocks a wealth of information on historical foodways and culinary exploration.

Download or read book Unfinished Austen Interpreting Catharine Lady Susan The Watsons and Sanditon written by Joanne Wilkes and published by Anthem Press. This book was released on 2023-09-05 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unfinished Austen examines four texts that Jane Austen left incomplete: Catharine, or the Bower (1792–-3), Lady Susan (1795?), The Watsons (1803–-4?) and Sanditon (1817), none of them published till well after her death. Since very little in manuscript form survives from the six famous novels, these four manuscript texts offer insight into the novelist in the process of creation. They also problematize the romance plot prominent in the published novels by presenting this in a nebulous or incipient state that underlines its artificiality. These texts sometimes show how the romance plot is inflected by the financial condition in which young marriageable women can find themselves. Moreover, the stories (other than Catharine) have aroused the interest of many later writers—including writers for theatre and screen—who are eager to complete or to amplify them. They may do this through developing the stories to some kind of dénouement. Perhaps more intriguingly, however, these texts induce some writers to question the very enterprise of concluding an unfinished text.

Download or read book For a Little While written by Rick Bass and published by Little, Brown. This book was released on 2016-03-01 with total page 500 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Long considered one of the most gifted practitioners of the short story, Rick Bass is unsurpassed in his ability to perceive and portray the enduring truths of the human heart. Now, at last, we have the definitive collection of stories, new and old, from the writer Newsweek has called "an American classic." To read his fiction is to feel more alive -- connected, incandescently, to "the brief longshot of having been chosen for the human experience," as one of his characters puts it. These pages reveal men and women living with passion and tenderness at the outer limits of the senses, each attempting to triumph against fate. Bass provides searing insights into the complexity of family and romantic entanglements, and his lush and striking language draws us ineluctably into the lives of these engaging people and their vivid surroundings. The intricate stories collected in For A Little While -- brimming with magic and wonder, filled with hard-won empathy, marbled throughout with astonishing imagery -- have the power both to devastate and to uplift. Together they showcase an iconic American master at his peak.
