Download or read book Roy Lillie A Love Story written by Loren D. Estleman and published by Forge Books. This book was released on 2010-08-03 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Roy was Judge Roy Bean, the infamous, notorious real-life jurist whose life has been the source of biographies, novels, plays, and films. Lillie was Lillie Langtry, the celebrated "Jersey Lily" of the British stage. They never met, but they wrote letters. From very different backgrounds, living vastly different lives, separated by an ocean and most of a continent, these two unforgettable people share something unique in the "lost letters" of this novel. For many years Bean, the cantankerous, self-styled arbiter of rough frontier justice, wrote fan letters to the beautiful actress across the sea; occasionally, she wrote back. He even renamed the town in which he lived Langtry in her honor. And they would have met, if Bean had not died shortly before Lillie, after years of this strange but poignant correspondence, finally kept her promise to visit her distant admirer. In Roy & Lillie, a story of letters lost and at long last found, Loren D. Estleman, with all the nuance and narrative skill that has won him multiple Spur Awards, brings to life an untold chapter of transatlantic love that is as tender as it is unique. At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.

Download or read book Cutting for All written by Kevin L. Seligman and published by SIU Press. This book was released on 1996 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Containing 2,729 entries, Kevin L. Seligman’s bibliography concentrates on books, manuals, journals, and catalogs covering a wide range of sartorial approaches over nearly five hundred years. After a historical overview, Seligman approaches his subject chronologically, listing items by century through 1799, then by decade. In this section, he deals with works on flat patterning, draping, grading, and tailoring techniques as well as on such related topics as accessories, armor, civil costumes, clerical costumes, dressmakers’ systems, fur, gloves, leather, military uniforms, and undergarments. Seligman then devotes a section to those American and English journals published for the professional tailor and dressmaker. Here, too, he includes the related areas of fur and undergarments. A section devoted to journal articles features selected articles from costume- and noncostumerelated professional journals and periodicals. The author breaks these articles down into three categories: American, English, and other. Seligman then devotes separate sections to other related areas, providing alphabetical listings of books and professional journals for costume and dance, dolls, folk and national dress, footwear, millinery, and wigmaking and hair. A section devoted to commercial pattern companies, periodicals, and catalogs is followed by an appendix covering pattern companies, publishers, and publications. In addition to full bibliographic notation, Seligman provides a library call number and library location if that information is available. The majority of the listings are annotated. Each listing is coded for identification and cross-referencing. An author index, a title index, a subject index, and a chronological index will guide readers to the material they want. Seligman’s historical review of the development of publications on the sartorial arts, professional journals, and the commercial paper pattern industry puts the bibliographical material into context. An appendix provides a cross-reference guide for research on American and English pattern companies, publishers, and publications. Given the size and scope of the bibliography, there is no other reference work even remotely like it.

Download or read book Black Montana written by Anthony W. Wood and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 2021-07 with total page 404 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 2022 Stubbendieck Great Plains Distinguished Book Prize Finalist Toward the end of the nineteenth century, many African Americans moved westward as Greater Reconstruction came to a close. Though, along with Euro-Americans, Black settlers appropriated the land of Native Americans, sometimes even contributing to ongoing violence against Indigenous people, this migration often defied the goals of settler states in the American West. In Black Montana Anthony W. Wood explores the entanglements of race, settler colonialism, and the emergence of state and regional identity in the American West during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. By producing conditions of social, cultural, and economic precarity that undermined Black Montanans' networks of kinship, community, and financial security, the state of Montana, in its capacity as a settler colony, worked to exclude the Black community that began to form inside its borders after Reconstruction. Black Montana depicts the history of Montana's Black community from 1877 until the 1930s, a period in western American history that represents a significant moment and unique geography in the life of the U.S. settler-colonial project.

Download or read book Askers Seekers Knockers I ASKED written by Carolyn McMillon and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2017-10-05 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An admired civil servant reveals the principles and life lessons she learned that transformed her thinking and actions from poverty-level living to a successful life and career in the federal government as a member of the Senior Executive Service. Askers, Seekers, and Knockers: I ASKED takes you on a journey filled with life lessons and experiences that demonstrate how anyone can create their own personal journey to success. Through deliberate, persistent, and dedicated actions, Carolyn Jean McMillon illustrates a powerful and inspirational step-by-step process to help you design a personal plan of action to get you from where you are today to the success you desire tomorrow. McMillon demonstrates through the principles of Asking, Seeking, and Knocking that it is not your beginning that dictates where you end up, but your choices. She makes a dare to every reader that forces them to evaluate the what-ifs of life. So what if you were not born a member of the privileged class, did not receive an Ivy League education, were not fortunate enough to have a formal mentor to take you under their wings, did not have that stellar job assignments, did not finish school, had a broken home life and a dysfunctional family, have more than your share of life's obstacles and challenges, were not fortunate enough to have a pre-planned successful path laid out for your life, and the "I did not have" and what-ifs list could go on and on and on. If you have grown tired of having a pity party and using one excuse after another as reasons why you are suffering with lack in your life, this book is definitely for you. An engaging and powerful storyteller, McMillon uses enlightening parables and vignettes to offer sage advice and wisdom about making choices that impact one's life. Through positive thought-provoking exercises, this book enables readers to map out their own personal journey to success by getting rid of limiting beliefs and self-defeating doubts and putting into action new directions that will take them to their high places in life. When you give up the pity party, stop blaming things that you can't change, and focus on changing the things you can, your circumstances will change! Why is McMillon so adamantly sure that you can transform and change the direction of your life? Because she did it.
