Download or read book Alfalfa Bill written by Robert L. Dorman and published by University of Oklahoma Press. This book was released on 2018-10-04 with total page 433 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this masterful biography, Robert L. Dorman traces the career of William H. “Alfalfa Bill” Murray from his hardscrabble childhood in post–Civil War Texas to his remarkable ascendancy as a nationally known political figure in the mid-twentieth century. The first comprehensive portrait of Murray to be published in fifty years, Alfalfa Bill is both the exploration of a larger-than-life personality and an illuminating account of the birth of political conservatism in Oklahoma. As Dorman reveals, no political label readily fit Murray. The core conservatism of his Texas years was caught up in the ferment of three major periods of American reform—the Populist uprising, the Progressive Era, and the New Deal. Over his long career, Murray strongly advocated for states’ rights, limited government, and strict constitutionalism, yet he was also a consistent foe of corporations and concentrated wealth. The society he sought was small-scale, decentralized, agrarian—and racially segregated. Although he claimed to represent high principles, Murray as a politician was an opportunist, loved a good fight, had a flair for the theatrical, and hungered for power. Dorman depicts Murray from his days as a political operative in the Chickasaw Nation to his leadership of the Oklahoma Constitutional Convention, and from the Speaker’s chair of the Oklahoma legislature to the halls of Congress. The book follows Murray’s quixotic attempt to found an agricultural colony in Bolivia, and chronicles his amazing Oklahoma comeback in the 1930 gubernatorial election. The final chapters detail Murray’s legendary term as state governor, his failed candidacy for president, and his emergence as a fierce critic of New Deal liberalism and racial desegregation. Unlike earlier biographies of Murray, Alfalfa Bill brings issues of race, class, and gender to the forefront, often in surprising ways. On the surface, the Murray saga was an American success story, yet his rise came at a price for Murray himself, his family, and the people of the state he helped to create. An indelible portrait emerges of an ambitious, domineering, relentless, and unapologetically racist figure whose tarnished legacy seems painfully relevant in America’s current political climate.

Download or read book Alfalfa Girl written by Edna Sailor and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2018-08-17 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Alfalfa Girl is the inner soul of teacher and mentor, Emily Sorenson. Alfalfa Girl inspires a painful but illuminating self-discovery journey out of the impact of debilitating and repeated child abuses for herself and Emilys mentee, Jenny Nelson. Through their growing bond as mentor and mentee in a vocational training setting, the story unfolds a vivid account of personal reconciliation and delicate, fragile trust building. The relationship painfully but lovingly advances the beginning recovery and hope of student Jenny Nelson and ongoing recovery for mentor Emily Sorenson as she encounters an unexpected free fall into PTSD along the way. The two elicit help from a support team, innovative trust-building methods including dog therapy, and law enforcement to combat stalking, rape, and other challenges. Purposely timed during the disarming context of the 2016 presidential election and its still evolving aftermath, the story juxtaposes personal recovery against a painful backdrop of reckless and disturbing national conversations that spotlight the ugly reality of misogynistic attitudes exposed daily into the national fabric of our country. Alfalfa girl and Jenny navigate the deeply personal, complex, and potentially debilitating issues surrounding the devastating results of sexual assault. Through constantly evolving emotional landscapes, ultimately, they both thread their way with unpredictable clarity through meaningful healing and survival as victims to highlight hope for themselves and inspiration for readers.

Download or read book Alfalfa Bill Murray written by Keith L. Bryant and published by University of Oklahoma Press. This book was released on 2016-02-08 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: William H. (Alfalfa Bill) Murray is the most important figure in the political history of Oklahoma. No other individual contributed so greatly to the formation of its political institutions—and there was never a more colorful or controversial character on the state’s political scene. Flamboyant, unpredictable, and stubborn, Alfalfa Bill became a legend. President of the Oklahoma Constitutional Convention, speaker of the first House of Representatives, two-term congressman, and governor of Oklahoma, the Texas-born Murray made an indelible mark on his adopted state. But he also made enemies. During the struggle for statehood he waged a hard battle over the constitution, taking on President Theodore Roosevelt and Secretary of War William Howard Taft. As Oklahoma governor, Murray challenged the oil industry, newspaper interests, and the state of Texas. To enforce his programs, he relied on the National Guard. While governor, Murray called out the guard forty-seven times for duties ranging from policing ticket sales at University of Oklahoma football games, to patrolling oil fields, to guarding the Red River Bridge during the infamous Bridge War with Texas. In 1932 he ran for the Democratic nomination for president, and his fame spread across the nation. When candidate Franklin D. Roosevelt offered a program for national recovery, Murray countered with “Bread, Butter, Bacon, and Beans.” In describing Murray’s frustrated efforts to preserve the agricultural American of the nineteenth century, Bryant has written a perceptive biography presenting the first clearly defined portrait of this determined but inflexible man.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Book of Alfalfa; History, Cultivation and Merits: Its Uses as a Forage and Fertilizer To avoid the appearance of both special pleading and exaggeration the statements have been guarded, and many of a laudatory nature, which fully authenticated facts seemed to justify, have been omitted, as neither the author nor the publishers have desire or willingness to extol unduly a commodity so little needing it as that: of which the volume treats. Alfalfa's strongest commem dations are invariably from those who know it best; none are incredulous who know it well, and none have grown it but wished their acreage increased.
