Download or read book Kinfolks written by Lisa Alther and published by Skyhorse. This book was released on 2012-01-05 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most of us grow up knowing who we are and where we come from. Lisa Alther’s mother hailed from New York, her father from Virginia. One day a babysitter told Lisa about the Melungeons: six-fingered child-snatchers who hid in caves. Forgetting about these creepy kidnappers until she had a daughter of her own, Lisa learned they were actually an isolated group of dark-skinned people—often with extra thumbs—living in East Tennessee. But who were they? Descendants of Sir Walter Raleigh’s Lost Colony? Kin of shipwrecked Portuguese or Turkish sailors? Or were they the children of frontiersman, or displaced Native Americans? Part sidesplitting travelogue, part how (and how not) to climb your family tree, Alther’s Kinfolks casts light on a little-known part of America’s contentious racial history; it shimmers with wicked humor, dazzles with wit, and demonstrates just how wacky and wonderful our human family truly is.

Download or read book Kindling 01 written by Kinfolk Kinfolk and published by Kinfolk. This book was released on 2021-06-08 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A new magazine for people with children, from the team behind Kinfolk. Kindling is a place to explore the new ideas and fresh perspectives that come with being a parent. It’s non-judgmental, unfussy and made to be enjoyed by anyone currently raising a child under the age of ten. We’re interested in exploring the big ideas around parenthood, not what your child should be having for dinner or wearing at the weekend. Compact and colorful, the magazine is designed to be kept and treasured—whether on a coffee table or a child’s bookshelf. Inside The Emotions Issue, you’ll find an interview with the professor of psychology who advised on Pixar’s Inside Out, a workbook geared towards helping your child talk about their feelings, and a photo essay in which fruits and vegetables bring common idioms to life. Just ask yourself: What would it really look like to be “cool as a cucumber”? Kindling is also packed with features and columns that answer questions including: What’s it like to spend four years traveling with your parents? What can the Gruffalo teach us about fatherhood? And how should you answer a child if they blindside you with a tough question like “Why do people die?”? Designed to be read by adults but shared with children, Kindling is brought to life through the playful drawings of Norwegian illustrator Espen Friberg, and contains an activity section packed with suggestions for fun, free and (occasionally) educational games that parents and children can enjoy together.
Download or read book The Forgotten Confederate Sentry written by Dan Hoffman and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2007-08 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Civil War was a flashpoint in the history of America. This volume is a collection of three stories that show the commitment and valor of those young people who fought and died experiencing the horrors of war. The Forgotten Confederate Sentry is a story told by the ghost of a rebel soldier to a cadre of Union soldiers buried alongside him in a small rural Pennsylvania cemetery. As he has stood sentry duty for almost 140 years, he tells them of his love for his retarded younger brother and the promises he made to him as they fought valiantly along side of one another at the battle of Antietam. Mattie Anderson tells the story of a young girl from Illinois who joins up with a local Union regiment, hiding her femininity in the guise of a young man, in order to seek her older brother whom she believes joined the rebel army. She ultimately carries a secret message back to her commanding officer that contributes to the end of the war. The third story is a true story of a young Pennsylvanian Union officer, Andrew Gregg Tucker, a graduate of what is now Bucknell University in Lewisburg, Pennsylvania, who brings glory and honor to his name through his heroic death at the battle of Gettysburg.

Download or read book Red Hills and Cotton written by Ben Robertson and published by Univ of South Carolina Press. This book was released on 2021-03-29 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Red Hills and Cotton is suffused with Ben Robertson's deep affection for his native Upcountry South Carolina. An internationally known and respected journalist, Robertson had a knack for finding the interesting and exotic in seemingly humble or ordinary folk and a keen eye for human interest stories. His power of description and disarmingly straightforward narrative were the hallmarks of his writing. A loyal Southern son, Robertson cherished what he judged to be the South's best traditions: personal independence and responsibility, the rejection of crass materialism, a deep piety, and a love of freedom. He repeatedly lamented the region's many shortcomings: poverty, racial hierarchy, political impotence, lack of inttellectual curiosity, and its tendency to blame all of its twentieth-century problems on the defeat of the Confederacy. An informative and entertaining new introduction by Lacy K. Ford, Jr., associate professor of history at the University of South Carolina, provides fascinating new facts about Robertson's life and recasts his achievements in Red Hills and Cotton as social commentary. Ford captures the essence of Robertson's restless and questioning, but unfailingly Southern, spirit.
