Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Get ready to escape to 18th century North Carolina - but bring your blanket: it's winter and times are rough. And watch out for mercenaries! A Scottish emigrant trapper known as Little Bear has just made a deal with a Hessian colonel; he’s purchased the survivors of the colonel’s recent raid on a small Indian village for a few gold nuggets, saving the women and children from a horrible fate. The bachelor isn’t sure what to do with the tattered group but knows he must hide them from the greedy mercenary sergeant who wants them back…along with the rest of Little Bear’s stash of gold. More went on in the Revolutionary War / War of Independence than epic battles and nation-building. The coexistence between the British, white settlers, Cherokee, and soldiers became even more stressed and complicated, especially when Hessian mercenaries with their own agendas arrived. Two strong young women and their children are caught in the middle. Will the handsome and clever trapper known as Little Bear save the day? Book Seven in THE FAIRIES SAGA series, time travel romance with sprinkles of humor and surprising twists.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally serialised in the “Merry's Museum” magazine in the July and August of 1869, “An Old-Fashioned Girl” is a novel by Louisa May Alcott that revolves around Polly Milton, an old-fashioned and outmoded young girl with rural manners. One day, she goes to visit her affluent friend Fanny Shaw in the city and is overwhelmed by people's fashion and strange way of life. A timeless tale of new meets old, “An Old-Fashioned Girl” constitutes a classic of American literature that is not to be missed by fans and collectors of Alcott's wonderful work. Louisa May Alcott (1832 – 1888) was an American short story writer, novelist, and poet most famous for writing the novel “Little Women”, as well as its sequels “Little Men” and “Jo's Boys”. She grew up in New England and became associated with numerous notable intellectuals of her time, including Nathaniel Hawthorne, Ralph Waldo Emerson, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, and Henry David Thoreau. Other notable works by this author include: "Eight Cousins" (1869) and "A Long Fatal Love Chase" (1875). Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with the original text and artwork.

Download or read book Translation Authorship and the Victorian Professional Woman written by Lesa Scholl and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-02-17 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In her study of Charlotte Brontë, Harriet Martineau and George Eliot, Lesa Scholl shows how three Victorian women writers broadened their capacity for literary professionalism by participating in translation and other conventionally derivative activities such as editing and reviewing early in their careers. In the nineteenth century, a move away from translating Greek and Latin Classical texts in favour of radical French and German philosophical works took place. As England colonised the globe, Continental philosophies penetrated English shores, causing fissures of faith, understanding and cultural stability. The influence of these new texts in England was unprecedented, and Eliot, Brontë and Martineau were instrumental in both literally and figuratively translating these ideas for their English audience. Each was transformed by access to foreign languages and cultures, first through the written word and then by travel to foreign locales, and the effects of this exposure manifest in their journalism, travel writing and fiction. Ultimately, Scholl argues, their study of foreign languages and their translation of foreign-language texts, nations and cultures enabled them to transgress the physical and ideological boundaries imposed by English middle-class conventions.

Download or read book Ohitika Woman written by Mary Brave Bird and published by Open Road + Grove/Atlantic. This book was released on 2014-11-18 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this follow-up to her acclaimed memoir Lakota Woman, the bestselling author shares “a grim yet gripping account” of Native American life (The Boston Globe). In this stirring sequel to the now-classic Lakota Woman, Mary Brave Bird continues the chronicle of her life with the same grit, passion, and piercing insight. It is a tale of ancient glory and present anguish, of courage and despair, of magic and mystery, and, above all, of the survival of both body and mind. Having returned home from Wounded Knee in 1973 and gotten married to American Indian movement leader Leonard Crow Dog, Mary became a mother who had hope of a better life. But, as she says, “Trouble always finds me.” With brutal frankness she bares her innermost thoughts, recounting the dark as well as the bright moments in her tumultuous life. She talks about the stark truths of being a Native American living in a white-dominated society as well as her experience of being a mother, a woman, and, rarest of all, a Sioux feminist. Filled with contrasts, courage, and endurance, Ohitika Woman is a powerful testament to Mary’s will and spirit.
