Download or read book The Mythical West written by Richard W. Slatta and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2001-11-20 with total page 475 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This cultural journey down memory lane showcases how major Western figures, events, and places have been portrayed in folk legends, art, literature, and popular culture. Ever since the days of the 49ers and George Armstrong Custer, the Old West has been America's most potent source of legend. But it is sometimes hard to separate fact from fiction. Did you know, for example, that Annie Oakley was a talented marksman who shot an estimated 40,000 rounds per year while practicing and performing for Buffalo Bill Cody's Wild West Show in the late l800s? Or that many interpreters believe that The Wonderful Wizard of Oz is not just a fairy tale, but also a Populist allegory? These are just two of the folk legends dissected and examined in this veritable cultural geography. The volume covers everything from billionaire Howard Hughes and composer Aaron Copeland to Aztlan (the legendary first city of the Aztecs) and Area 51, the top-secret U.S. Air Force base at Groom Lake, Nevada, that has fascinated UFO and conspiracy buffs.

Download or read book I Pledge written by Kathie Lee and published by Publication Consultants. This book was released on 2018-11-01 with total page 323 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I Pledge is well written, taking the reader on a unique journey through the painful Vietnam years. Kathie Lee, a young woman in the military, presents a fascinating story through the eyes of a small-town girl forced to grow up in a hurry. As Kathie's perceptions of honor, duty, and national interest are challenged, the reader is held captive. I Pledge is the first account I have seen which addresses those years effectively from a female perspective. Governor Jay Hammond, State of Alaska's two term Governor. He was a great encouragement to me in writing this novel before his passing. I Pledge is a wholesome, touching reading set in a serious era of America's history – the Vietnam War. It is carefully detailed, fast moving and even humorous. It also conveys values that will see people through both national and personal crises. Many will appreciate and benefit from I Pledge. Franklin Graham, President of the Billy Graham Evangelical Association and Samaritan's Purse Kathie Lee's book is a mind stimulating adventure of the time she spent in the military and the events she noted during the Vietnam War. I Pledge made me reflect on my time in the U.S. Marine Corps boot camp during 1964 and my combat tours of duty in Vietnam during 1967, 68, 69 and 70. It reminded me of the good times I spent with my comrades-in-arms and our everlasting friendships, and the bad times of having to experience the tragedy of a war-torn country, Vietnam. Butch Meriwether, U.S.M.C. Gunnery Sergeant, Retired In more than 20 years of friendship we have heard many stories from Kathie Lee about her experiences in the military, specifically the Vietnam era. We were in the first generation who sat around the dinner table and watched the daily televised unfolding of a war we didn't understand. Hearing about the war from the perspective of veterans who have a passion for their country and for our military has truly been an eye-opening privilege. Perhaps no other era of veterans has dealt with so much controversy and so little honor. As educators, we feel I Pledge is a ‘must read' for teachers and students to get an a accurate understanding of the Vietnam War period, and the sacrifices made by so many. Gary and Jill Leiter, Educator

Download or read book Island of the Mad written by Laurie R. King and published by Bantam. This book was released on 2019-06-04 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Laurie R. King’s New York Times bestselling series featuring Mary Russell and Sherlock Holmes is “the most sustained feat of imagination in mystery fiction today” (Lee Child)! The last thing Mary Russell and her husband, Sherlock Holmes, need is to help an old friend with her mad, missing aunt. Lady Vivian Beaconsfield has spent most of her adult life in one asylum after another, since the loss of her brother and father in the Great War. Although her mental state seemed to be improving, she’s now disappeared after an outing from Bethlem Royal Hospital . . . better known as Bedlam. Russell wants nothing to do with the case—but she can’t say no. To track down the vanished woman, she must use her deductive instincts and talent for subterfuge—and enlist her husband’s legendary prowess. Together, the two travel from the grim confines of Bedlam to the murky canals of Venice—only to find the shadow of Benito Mussolini darkening the fate of a city, an era, and a tormented English lady of privilege. Praise for Island of the Mad “Full of lush details and clever twists.”—Booklist “Once again validates Laurie R. King as the preeminent Holmes writer working today.”—Bookreporter “A truly memorable mystery . . .

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After a life of passion and adventure that has brought her through slavery to the Resurrection garden, through the controversies of the Early Church to a hermit cave in southern gaul, Maeve, the Celtic Mary Magdalen, returns to the Holy Isles accompanied by Sarah, her daughter with Jesus. Their mission: to find Maeve's first-born child, stolen from her by the druids more than forty years ago. Since then, Maeve's homeland has suffered it's own trials--Roman invasion and occupation. The Celtic tribes to the east and south are under direct rule, and the Romans are determined to rout the resistance of the western tribes, resistance fueled by the druids of Mona. Just before she crosses the channel from Gaul to Britain, Maeve encounters a man she mistakes for Jesus's ghost. This familiar stranger is equally haunted, and the two are drawn into a moonstruck liason that will entwine their lives in "an impossible Celtic knot." For unbeknownst to Maeve at the time, he is none other than General Gaius Suetonius Paulinus, the newly-appointed Roman Governor of Britain. Maeve keeps this troubling tryst a secret even after she finds her long-lost daughter Boudica, the fierce and charismatic queen of the Iceni tribe. Druid-trained in her youth, Boudica married the Iceni king, hoping to rally him to a rebellion for which he has no stomach. Now estranged from her husband, Boudica keeps the old ways, sustained by her pride in her descent form her father (and Maeve's!) the late great druid Lovernios. Seeking to circumvent disaster, Maeve travels back and forth from Iceni country to Mona, from the heart of native resistance to a Roman fort on the Western front, steadfast in her conviction: "Love is as strong as death."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER “A mesmerizing new historical novel” (O, The Oprah Magazine) from Lisa See, the bestselling author of The Tea Girl of Hummingbird Lane, about female friendship and devastating family secrets on a small Korean island. Mi-ja and Young-sook, two girls living on the Korean island of Jeju, are best friends who come from very different backgrounds. When they are old enough, they begin working in the sea with their village’s all-female diving collective, led by Young-sook’s mother. As the girls take up their positions as baby divers, they know they are beginning a life of excitement and responsibility—but also danger. Despite their love for each other, Mi-ja and Young-sook find it impossible to ignore their differences. The Island of Sea Women takes place over many decades, beginning during a period of Japanese colonialism in the 1930s and 1940s, followed by World War II, the Korean War, through the era of cell phones and wet suits for the women divers. Throughout this time, the residents of Jeju find themselves caught between warring empires. Mi-ja is the daughter of a Japanese collaborator. Young-sook was born into a long line of haenyeo and will inherit her mother’s position leading the divers in their village. Little do the two friends know that forces outside their control will push their friendship to the breaking point. “This vivid…thoughtful and empathetic” novel (The New York Times Book Review) illuminates a world turned upside down, one where the women are in charge and the men take care of the children. “A wonderful ode to a truly singular group of women” (Publishers Weekly), The Island of Sea Women is a “beautiful story…about the endurance of friendship when it’s pushed to its limits, and you…will love it” (Cosmopolitan).
