Download or read book Alice Caldwell Hegan Mrs Wiggs of the Cabbage Patch The Bestseller of 1902 written by Alice Caldwell Hegan and published by Bestseller of History. This book was released on 2019-12-31 with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Alice Hegan Rice, who published as Alice Caldwell Hegan, was born on January 11th, 1870, in Shelbyville, Kentucky. As a child, her natural creative talents ensured she would always be able to entertain family members with impromptu stories. She had her first article published in a local magazine whilst she was still only 15. Her well-to-do upbringing was brought into focus while helping a Sunday School that was in a slum in Louisville called the "Cabbage Patch". A group of troublesome boys disrupted the session, but Alice was able to calm matters by telling them a made-up story. Such was their appetite that she continued this with further outlandish tales of pirates and gangsters. This introduction to the world of poverty and the underprivileged was, in effect, life changing. It would also later become the basis for her novel, 'Mrs. Wiggs of the Cabbage Patch'. The novel became the best-selling book of 1902. It was turned into a play and filmed four times in the years that followed. Such was her popularity that many of her works were translated into German, French, Danish, and Swedish, and three turned into plays. Alice married Cale Young Rice, a poet and playwright, on December 18th, 1902. Much of their time was spent travelling the world, they were also a well-respected couple on the New York and London literary scenes. Alice's Aunt Fannie, who was a teacher in Japan during the early 1900's, had written to her often with her views and insights into Japan and its War with Russia in 1904-05. It was Alice's idea to turn the letters into a book. She removed all the personal identifying details and created the pseudonym Frances Little. The title came from the children she taught who called her their 'Lady of the Decoration' every time Fannie 'pinned on her little enameled watch'. Alice's editing had turned her Aunt Fannie into the best-selling author of 1907. Alice's social activism drove her to help improve the working and living conditions of the poor, which brought about the founding of the Cabbage Patch Settlement House in Louisville in 1910. Alice Caldwell Hegan died on February 10th, 1942 in Louisville, Kentucky.

Download or read book The Westminster Alice written by Saki and published by . This book was released on 2021-04-28 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Westminster Alice is a collection of humorous vignettes by Saki, first published in the Westminster Gazette in 1902, which form a political pastiche of the Alice books by Lewis Carroll, featuring an unforgettable cast of notable politicians of the day, and brought to life with illustrations by F. Carruthers Gould - 'with apologies to Sir John Tenniel' for their striking likeness to the original Alice illustrations. Desperately trying to navigate her way through the world of Ineptitudes, Knights, Queens and Mad Hatters, Alice delivers a stinging satire of Westminster politics - which, imbued with Saki's charm and delicate wit, and set in a world evocative of Carroll's timeless Wonderland, is as charming today as when it was written, and belongs on every Alice fan's bookshelf.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1902 New York, Alice Roosevelt, the bright, passionate, and wildly unconventional daughter of newly sworn-in President Theodore Roosevelt, is placed under the supervision of Secret Service Agent Joseph St. Clair, ex-cowboy and veteran of the Rough Riders. St. Clair quickly learns that half his job is helping Alice roll cigarettes and escorting her to bookies, but matters grow even more difficult when Alice takes it upon herself to investigate a recent political killing—the assassination of former president William McKinley. Concerned for her father's safety, Alice seeks explanations for the many unanswered questions about the avowed anarchist responsible for McKinley's death. In her quest, Alice drags St. Clair from grim Bowery bars to the elegant parlors of New York's ruling class, from the haunts of the Chinese secret societies to the magnificent new University Club, all while embarking on a tentative romance with a family friend, the son of a prominent local household. And while Alice, forced to challenge those who would stop at nothing in their greed for money and power, considers her uncertain future, St. Clair must come to terms with his own past in Alice and the Assassin, the first in R. J. Koreto's riveting new historical mystery series.
