Download or read book Officers Row 1904 written by Mary Ellen Cortellini and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2019-08-28 with total page 86 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Merriam Press Military History. This is a work of both historical fact and fiction, that captures an era of Army glory in San Diego at the turn of the 20th century. The Army's presence, at North Island and Fort Rosecrans, is little-known in the more dominant local naval history, yet crucial to the development of early Point Loma, San Diego and Coronado. The book also relives the tragic explosion, on July 21, 1905, of USS Bennington that took the lives of 65 men, another major piece of San Diego history that has been all but forgotten over time. It remains one of the most terrible peacetime military disasters. This is a smart-looking, quick read that brings to life many forgotten pieces of the past, while adding personalities and personal interaction based on written accounts of the time. Portions of the proceeds from the sale of this book will benefit families of fallen EOD (Explosive Ordnance Disposal) personnel. 104 color/sepia photos, paintings, drawings, illustrations.

Book excerpt: His early career was as a reporter for the Newark Ledger and later the Newark Evening News, covering major stories like prohibition, the Lindbergh baby kidnapping and trial, the Hall Mills murder, the Hindenburg Zeppelin disaster, and the Reid bandits murder trial. For thirty-five years he served as public relations director for Western Union, during which time he issued nationwide news releases almost daily, writing communication history as it was being made.

Download or read book The Well of Loneliness written by Radclyffe Hall and published by Read Books Ltd. This book was released on 2015-04-24 with total page 464 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This early work by Radclyffe Hall was originally published in 1928 and we are now republishing it with a brand new introductory biography. 'The Well of Loneliness' is a novel that follows an upper-class Englishwoman who falls in love with another woman while serving as an ambulance driver in World War I. Marguerite Radclyffe Hall was born on 12th August 1880, in Bournemouth, England. Hall's first novel The Unlit Lamp (1924) was a lengthy and grim tale that proved hard to sell. It was only published following the success of the much lighter social comedy The Forge (1924), which made the best-seller list of John O'London's Weekly. Hall is a key figure in lesbian literature for her novel The Well of Loneliness (1928). This is her only work with overt lesbian themes and tells the story of the life of a masculine lesbian named Stephen Gordon.

Book excerpt: For ten generations, the Hemsby family has passed the family moniker, Albert, to a son. From Sir Alfred Hemsby whose sons sailed to Virginia seeking religious freedom, to Alfred Hemsby (the tenth) born in 1934, the family has experienced every great event and its associated trials and tribulations over the course of three hundred years. The Hemsby's family women passed meticulously kept journals and diaries from generation to generation. These writings not only detail each family's milestones births, marriages, deaths but also their quests for religious freedom; struggles to find work and be treated equally; service to their country in every American conflict; and drive to influence American politics. Young Albert Hemsby (the tenth), influenced by his mother Annette, is the next Hemsby to advance the family story. Reading the diaries, he carefully pieces together his ancestry and moves the family forward from 1934 through the chaotic 60s and toward the future's political statehood. Intricately woven through the Hemsby's story are verses 1 24 of Genesis Chapter 3. Within the context of Adam and Eve's fall from grace, author George England explores how one family's greatness can bring positive influences to a caustic world of greed, bigotry, disease, and war.
