Book excerpt: It was seen over 160 years ago. It was denied and scoffed at by experienced leaders and elders. It was a young boys tale; a fabrication to bolster his status within his tribe. Only his family believed. Over the years through turmoil and cultural upheaval the truth became known. It is a story of confirmation, standing up for ones principles and beliefs. As the years passed the implications become much broader than the original vision. Who knows how history would have c hanged if the boys story was believed? The convictions and choices that Horse Killer, Eagle Who Broke His Wing, Buffalo Robe, Fire Lance, Maxwell Slade (Sun Caller), Randle and Chip, Paxton, Sally, Tully, Fredericks, and Captain Adkins, made at various times over a 160 year span are linked together to confirm the vision. Commitment, values, convictions, and beliefs, converge to exonerate one young boys tale. Everyone is in this book or someone you know. . .

Book The Seed Of Sally Good n

Download or read book The Seed Of Sally Good n written by Ruth Polk Patterson and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2021-10-21 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spencer Polk was born of an African-Indian slave woman known as Sally, and her master, Taylor Polk, a descendant of one of America's first families and one of the earliest white settlers in the Arkansas Territory. A favored slave, Spencer Polk became a prosperous farmer and landowner in southwestern Arkansas and the founder of a numerous and energetic family. Since emancipation the family homestead he built on Muddy Fork Creek has housed succeeding generations and has drawn back those who sought their fortunes elsewhere. Ruth Polk Patterson, a granddaughter of Spencer Polk who was born and raised in the log house he built, traces the life of Polk and his family from his birth in 1833 to the present generation. The skillful blending of folklore, history, and personal insight makes The Seed of Sally Good'n an excellent contribution to the long neglected history of middle-class African Americans.

Book excerpt: When Peter 'Mad Max' Maxwell took his kids from Leighford High on an archaelogical dig, all should have been learning and fun. The professionals were very excited - was the grave they had found that of Alfred the Great? No, because the corpse was not Saxon and it wasn't a king, but an altogether more recent murder. No sooner has the first body been found than another, a policeman on the case, is found dead at the wheel of his car. What knowledge did he possess that led to his death? And does his colleague, Maxwell's partner Jacquie Carpenter, unwittingly have the same information? Maxwell locks horns with the great and not so good in a vicious world of skulduggery, academic back-biting and religious mania which can only end in murder.

Maxwell is credited with advancing a medium that had been for years relegated to illustrators and children. Because of her persistence and determination, thousands of artists today use scratchboard, and not only for monochromatic drawings; many have learned to add color and dimension through demonstrations and videos created by Maxwell through Ampersand. With more than one hundred plates, Maxwell's career and the evolution of scratchboard come to life.

Amid egregious sexual harassment, Mary’s materials are blatantly sabotaged. As death threats follow and her work becomes impossible, she is accepted at Whitehead College of Medicine despite evidence that her bosses tampered with her application process. After becoming a pediatrics resident, she shares her story with her beloved mentor, Dr. Daniel Taylor, who allows her to temporarily leave her residency training to reproduce the work.

Book Da Bonemon

  • Author : Bob Harrison
  • Publisher : Xlibris Corporation
  • Release : 2002-02-13
  • ISBN : 1465322817
  • Pages : 262 pages

Download or read book Da Bonemon written by Bob Harrison and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2002-02-13 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A killer has returned. Nearly two decades after a series of murders, bodies are again appearing in the Appalachians. Special Agent Truman Eisenhauer arrives in the rugged mountains bordering the Great Smoky Mountains National Park where he and local sheriff Bill Watson investigate the latest bizarre murder. Theories abound about the strange, ritualistic murders, but Eisenhauer has his own ideasideas that dont turn to the supernatural. Confronting the mystifying had become his specialty at the FBI, but Eisenhauer was unprepared for what waited for him in the backwoods of North Carolina. Virtually nothing fit his preconceived notions of the area or of crime itself. Both an obvious pattern and an obvious signature existed for this serial killer, but that helped neither he nor Bill Watson in their initial pursuit of the killer. It was not until Eisenhauer began to confront his own past that the glimmer of an answer appeareda solution he did not want to find. Set the rich and storied woods of rural America and populated with a cast of just slightly off-center characters, Da Bonemon is a novel of mystery, horror, and comedy, and is definitely not a book for younger readers or for those people who are offended by sex and violence.

The biographies make clear how these performers shaped the contrasts in style and technique of harp playing that have developed over the past 150 years, as cultural, social, and psychological forces influenced individual performance.

New material from the former Soviet states is included.
