Book excerpt: An award-winning journalist’s voyage into her family history and her quest to face the storms she encounters there. In August Gale, Pulitzer Prize–winning journalist Barbara Walsh—who has interviewed killers, bad cops, and crooked politicians in the course of her career—faces the most challenging story of her lifetime: asking her father about his childhood pain. In the process, she takes us on two heartrending odysseys: one into a deadly Newfoundland hurricane and the lives of schooner fishermen who relied on God and the wind to carry them home; the other, into a squall stirred by a man with many secrets: a grandfather who remained a mystery until long after his death. Sixty-eight years after the hurricane that claimed several of her ancestors, Walsh searches for memories of the August gale and the grandfather who abandoned her dad as a young boy. Together, she and her father journey to Newfoundland to learn about the 1935 storm, and along the way her dad begins to talk about the man he cannot forgive. As she recreates the scenes of the violent hurricane and a small boy's tender past, she holds onto a hidden desire: to heal her father and redeem the grandfather she has never met.

Book The St  Marystown Saga

  • Author : Richard Dornisch
  • Publisher : CreateSpace
  • Release : 2015-01-17
  • ISBN : 9781507613313
  • Pages : 112 pages

Download or read book The St Marystown Saga written by Richard Dornisch and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2015-01-17 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: History, art, humor, story-telling... On August 30, 1995 the first comic strip in The St. Marystown Saga appeared on the back page of the Saturday edition of The Daily Press newspaper in St. Marys, Pennsylvania. St. Marys, a small city in The Pennsylvania Wilds, once known as The Great Buffalo Swamp and The Wildcat District, was founded in 1842, originally as an experiment in communal living by Redemptorist fathers from Bavaria. The Utopian ideal of the German Catholic Brotherhood did not last, but the small community did. Though the area was rugged and virtually inaccessible, it was rich in natural resources—timber, coal, clay, and abundant wildlife. That is where this story begins.The format of this remarkable book is the brainchild of artist/illustrator, historian, and story-teller Dick Dornisch, a St. Marys native. Using his comprehensive knowledge of history—local, national, and global—and employing his skill as an illustrator, Dornisch filled his “comic strips” with information and drawings that profiled not only the village of St. Marys in its first century, but the important people and events, nationally and internationally, that were major influences on the community, its citizens, and their world.In nearly 400 comic strips—all hand-drawn and lettered— Dornisch has created a work of art filled with history, humor, charming details, and first-class story-telling. This is the story of one community that has universal appeal. It stands as a tribute to the bravery of those men and women who undertook the formidable task of going into the wilderness, carving out a place of their own, and working to make their dreams come true.

Book Baseball s Creation Myth

Download or read book Baseball s Creation Myth written by Brian Martin and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2013-06-12 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The story about baseball's being invented in Cooperstown, New York, in 1839 by Abner Doubleday served to prove that the U.S. national pastime was an American game, not derived from the English children's game of rounders as had been believed. The tale, embraced by Americans, has long been proven false but to this day, Cooperstown is celebrated as the birthplace of baseball. The story has captured the hearts of millions. But who spun that tale and why? This book provides a surprising answer about the origins of America's most durable myth. It seems that Abner Graves, who espoused Cooperstown as the birthplace of the game, likely was inspired by another story about an early game of baseball. The stories were remarkably similar, as were the men who told them. For the first time, this book links the stories and lives of Graves, a mining engineer, and Adam Ford, a medical doctor, both residents of Denver, Colorado. While the actual origins of the game of baseball remain subject to debate and study, new light is shed on the source of baseball's durable creation myth.
