A murder . . . or two . . .A gold watch . . . A hidden treasure . . .A weathervane . . .And a fall through the curtain of time to right wrongs and unite lovers in this time travel romantic suspense novel for the ages.Author InterviewQ: How did the story for The Golden Argonauts come to you?A: I have always loved time travel stories ever since I read the epic Outlander series by Diana Gabaldon. But I also love California history and western romance stories. The gold rush holds a fascination for readers of historical fiction as well. So it seemed a perfect combination to put a modern cast of characters living in 21st Century San Francisco and plunge them back into the world of early San Francisco. Q: What elements of suspense did you put in your book?A: Readers of romantic suspense will enjoy the developing relationship between Sarah and Jack as well as the relationship between Finn during the gold rush and how he adjusts to losing his wife and forming an attachment to Fanny. Also, Sarah pursues an accused murderer in her legal career so elements of crime fiction, stalking, mystery, thriller and detective stories also appear in the book.Q: How did you perform research to make the old San Francisco come alive?A: San Francisco offers many landmarks of the gold rush, including sites found in the book. Characters find themselves in the kiosk that became San Francisco landmark Tadich's Restaurant, Wells Fargo Bank has a museum devoted to the handling of the gold discovered by the miners, and many streets familiar to residents of the city still exist. Also a large library devoted to historical research of the era helped authenticate the lives and time documented in the book.Q: Have you always been interested in paranormal ideas?A: I'd have to say I am. Science fiction, mysticism, paranormal, fantasy and urban fantasy all have intriguing elements that writers explore in wonderful novels. I hope to add The Golden Argonauts to that library.Q: Allison Cassidy Page is actually a mother-daughter writing team. How is that working out?A: We have had a fantastic time working together. From the get go we have had a close and easy bond that has always included a lot of laughter. We are both creative people and this was a natural evolution of relationship. Helen, the mother of the pair, has published more than 40 books beginning in the 70s with cookbooks and includes children's fiction, romances, and mysteries to her credit. She is an avid cook, world traveler, reads widely and loves art and history.

Download or read book Time Travel written by Alan Gordon and published by UBC Press. This book was released on 2016-04-15 with total page 373 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the 1960s, Canadians could step through time to eighteenth-century trading posts or nineteenth-century pioneer towns. These living history museums promised authentic reconstructions of the past but, as Time Travel shows, they revealed more about mid-twentieth-century interests and perceptions of history than they reflected historical fact. An appetite for commercial tourism led to the rise of living history museums. They became important components of economic growth, especially as part of government policy to promote regional economic diversity and employment. Alan Gordon explores how these museums were shaped by post-war pressures, personality conflicts, funding challenges, and the need to balance education and entertainment. Ultimately, the rise of the living history museum is linked to the struggle to establish a pan-Canadian identity in the context of multiculturalism, competing anglophone and francophone nationalisms, First Nations resistance, and the growth of the state.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: American studies in the scholarly sense are old in Europe. But academic chairs and research institutions were late in developing, as they were in the United States themselves. In most European universities the subject was firmly established only after the Second World War. The University of Oslo in Norway in 1946 founded a full professorship of American literature, the first of its kind in Scandinavia, and in 1948 an American Institute. In the following year the Institute started a series of book publications in cooperation with the University of Pennsylvania. This is the second of two volumes titled Americana Norvegica.
