Download or read book Mae Murray written by Michael G. Ankerich and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2013-01-04 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mae Murray (1885--1965), popularly known as "the girl with the bee-stung lips," was a fiery presence in silent-era Hollywood. Renowned for her classic beauty and charismatic presence, she rocketed to stardom as a dancer in the Ziegfeld Follies, moving across the country to star in her first film, To Have and to Hold, in 1916. An instant hit with audiences, Murray soon became one of the most famous names in Tinseltown. However, Murray's moment in the spotlight was fleeting. The introduction of talkies, a string of failed marriages, a serious career blunder, and a number of bitter legal battles left the former star in a state of poverty and mental instability that she would never overcome. In this intriguing biography, Michael G. Ankerich traces Murray's career from the footlights of Broadway to the klieg lights of Hollywood, recounting her impressive body of work on the stage and screen and charting her rapid ascent to fame and decline into obscurity. Featuring exclusive interviews with Murray's only son, Daniel, and with actor George Hamilton, whom the actress closely befriended at the end of her life, Ankerich restores this important figure in early film to the limelight.

Branded with the mark of the vaccine, Fiona must navigate this new dystopian world. But there's no cure for being stung. . . Fiona doesn't remember going to sleep. But when she opens her eyes, she discovers her entire world has been altered-her house is abandoned and broken, and the entire neighborhood is barren and dead. Even stranger is the tattoo on her right wrist-a black oval with five marks on either side-that she doesn't remember getting but somehow knows she must cover at any cost. And she's right. When the honeybee population collapsed, a worldwide pandemic occurred and the government tried to bio-engineer a cure. Only the solution was deadlier than the original problem--the vaccination turned people into ferocious, deadly beasts who were branded as a warning to un-vaccinated survivors. Key people needed to rebuild society are protected from disease and beasts inside a fortress-like wall. But Fiona has awakened branded, alone-and on the wrong side of the wall . . .

Download or read book Sting of the Bee written by Charles Cressey and published by . This book was released on 2016-04-19 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wounded Knee, as it was first reported, and, as you've never read it. A sensational contemporary view of the events surrounding the Sioux outbreak of 1890 and 1891 that violently climaxed at Wounded Knee, South Dakota. These articles from the Omaha Bee represent some of the most widely read and published correspondence of that sanguinary winter. Until now, Will Cressey's on-scene dispatches have never appeared under a single cover. Step back 125 years into the past and experience the exhilaration and anguish that was the sting of the Bee. The language of the day was harsh and reflects the strong views that many Americans held of the native tribes following more than two and a half centuries of persistent conflict with the indigenous communities that first occupied the continent. To our twenty-first century sensibilities the articles and commentary are replete with racist and visceral remarks that provide an unvarnished perspective of life in the Midwest at the closing chapter of conflict with the American Indian. These news reports are provided to the western historian, Americana scholar, and Indian wars enthusiast as an unfiltered glimpse into an American tragedy that unfolded on the front pages of papers from the Atlantic to the Pacific a century and a quarter ago. To be sure, Will Cressey's specials were both criticized and acclaimed by his peers, and he was likely the most read war correspondent during that troubled time frame. The country's collective memory of Wounded Knee and the events that unfolded in the winter of 1890 and 1891 have been formed and reformed through conflicting accounts and historical analysis of that American tragedy. Returning to the pages of the newspapers of the day provides a valuable perspective of the events as they occurred in one of the most read papers of the Midwest. The sting of Edward Rosewater's Omaha Bee is a harsh, contemporary reflection of those events and their impact on a nation progressing toward the twentieth century.

Download or read book Sting Like a Bee written by Leigh Montville and published by Anchor. This book was released on 2017-05-16 with total page 405 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An insightful portrait of Muhammad Ali from the New York Times bestselling author of At the Altar of Speed and The Big Bam. It centers on the cultural and political implications of Ali's refusal of service in the military—and the key moments in a life that was as high profile and transformative as any in the twentieth century. With the death of Muhammad Ali in June, 2016, the media and America in general have remembered a hero, a heavyweight champion, an Olympic gold medalist, an icon, and a man who represents the sheer greatness of America. New York Times bestselling author Leigh Montville goes deeper, with a fascinating chronicle of a story that has been largely untold. Muhammad Ali, in the late 1960s, was young, successful, brash, and hugely admired—but with some reservations. He was bombastic and cocky in a way that captured the imagination of America, but also drew its detractors. He was a bold young African American in an era when few people were as outspoken. He renounced his name—Cassius Clay—as being his 'slave name,' and joined the Nation of Islam, renaming himself Muhammad Ali. And finally in 1966, after being drafted, he refused to join the military for religious and conscientious reasons, triggering a fight that was larger than any of his bouts in the ring. What followed was a period of legal battles, of cultural obsession, and in some ways of being the very embodiment of the civil rights movement located in the heart of one man. Muhammad Ali was the tip of the arrow, and Leigh Montville brilliantly assembles all the boxing, the charisma, the cultural and political shifting tides, and ultimately the enormous waft of entertainment that always surrounded Ali. Muhammed Ali vs. the United States of America is an important and incredibly engaging book.

This story is about the fantastic world where a young man by the name of Richard lives. Armed with a weapon that he receives from a pile of rotting corpses, Richard must escape the institution that has held him prisoner for so long. Partnering up with a severed hand named Resk and a young girl who has been created in an underground room of a madman's laboratory, Richard is just trying to survive in this wacky world filled with cannibalistic nuns. Is trying to get home really supposed to be this difficult? "How do you make it without dying?" "You don't..." Sometimes, escaping your fears isn't enough and you must stand and fight, even if it means losing your life...a couple times... What would you do to see your love? The dark world of severed hands, rock monsters, cannibalistic nuns, and madmen awaits you in this exciting tale of a young man who just wants to escape the institution that he's been imprisoned in for so long. With the help from a friend on the inside, his escape becomes a reality. But what has he gotten himself into? Has he been institutionalized for so long that the world has left him behind, or does everyone know something that he doesn't? In the tremendous amount of confusion that swarms all around him, he is left with the love for his friend Sharon, the girl created in a laboratory. But will his love for her save him or destroy him? With nuns lurking around every corner, sniffing him out, where can he and Sharon seek refuge? In this land full of madness, nothing is what it seems... Born in Chapel Hill, North Carolina, I moved to Pennsylvania when I was three. I went to school at Northwestern, in a small town called Albion. At a young age, I had incorporated a many hobbies into my life, which made it very difficult for my parents to ever really ground me for messing up in their eyes. They could take away my toys, my computer, my video games, and my time with my friends, but they couldn't take my writing or imagination, so if I were to get grounded from one thing, I would switch my attention to another one. I've always enjoyed writing very much. With my free time in school, I created one comic series and various stories. Some still have yet to be finished, but as I continue through this life, I am continually thinking of new ideas for short stories, novels, and comics. Note to the readers: There are times when we all want to escape our lives for one reason or another. Some people do it by working themselves to the extreme, some by dreaming in their beds no matter the time of day, and some by keeping their minds in a perpetual state of fantasy that they themselves or someone else has created for them. Sometimes reality seems a bit more like fantasy, you find yourself wondering, "How could reality be real?" Maybe it's not. Sometimes that fantasy is our reality. I invite you into one of my fantasies. Enter a realm where the normality of real life washes away to become something much greater, where unconditional love becomes the driving force behind the reason for putting yourself in terrible danger. Enter into one of my escapes from reality.
