Book excerpt: Megan Latimer, new counselor at a small island school, loves the peace and quiet of her harborside cottage with nature's beauty right outside her picture window... And a dog tied to the bow of a rowboat floating out into the harbor? A rescue, a hunky owner, and the mystery of how the dog got tied to the boat begin to complicate her life. It becomes more complicated as she deals with an angry boy, an inexperienced new parent, job challenges, a budding romance, a runaway, a rescue, and a hospital stay. And she is on the receiving end of cryptic messages from an ancestral spirit through visits and dreams. Daniel Hunter, carpenter and owner of Hunter Builders, has his life turned upside down by a troubled six-year-old terror, a son he is just now learning about. When he'd sobered up and left a toxic relationship, he moved to the island to build a business. Daniel would never shirk his responsibility to his son, but has no experience with kids, and no parents of his own. He needs help when the school calls him about trouble with his son's aggressive behavior. Enter Ms. Latimer, school counselor...and the woman who rescued his dog. Would she be able to help him figure out his boy...and maybe other things missing from his life? No woman is an island. Can Megan learn that the helper can need and ask for help too? Can Daniel learn to trust his instincts and speak his feelings? Can they work together to overcome their challenges and save their new family unit as lethal danger threatens them all?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Legacy: South Florida Museum is an account of the origins, founding, and development in twentieth-century Florida of a people's museum about archeology, Spanish exploration, manatees, and space. As a museum founded in the immediate post-World War II era, with its origins in the prehistoric past, its narrative reflects Florida's changes through Spanish exploration, statehood, tourism, endangered manatees, and space development over a thousand years. The Legacy is a story of volunteerism, in the spirit of voluntary action for the common good, by dedicated individuals. It leads to today's South Florida Museum and its several facilities, including the Bishop Planetarium, Parker Manatee Aquarium, and Spanish Plaza.

Download or read book Hugh Latimer written by R. Demaus and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-15 with total page 480 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Hugh Latimer: A Biography He has at all events sedulously availed himself of such materials for his work as were within his reach. His aim has been, if possible, to look at Latimer as his contemporaries saw him; and, setting aside modern fanciful portraits, to reproduce, as far as may be, the very authentic image of the man as he spoke, and acted, and suffered, three centuries ago. Modern authorities, therefore, friendly or unfriendly, have been very little consulted; the narrative has been compiled almost exclusively, in its framework, and in its details, from contemporary documents. Latimer's published writings are rich in autobiographical allusions; a considerable number of his letters have been preserved among the Chapter House Papers in the State Paper Office; in the same invaluable repository, and among the Mss. in the British Museum, many documents have been found which throw much light upon his career; and the works of his contemporaries, especially of his great associates, Ridley and Cranmer, contain frequent references to one who for many years played so important a part in the transactions of the time.

Richard O'Connor launched what amounted to a British 'Blitzkrieg'. In less than two months the British forces swept 500 miles along the coast of North Africa. 7th Armoured Division raced across the desert to cut off the retreating Italians, and O'Connor's men destroyed 9 Italian divisions, and took 130,000 prisoners. In March 1941 General Rommel and the Afrikakorps landed at Tripoli.

Download or read book Anarchist s Guide to Historic House Museums written by Franklin D Vagnone and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-07-01 with total page 263 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In these days of an aging traditional audience, shrinking attendance, tightened budgets, increased competition, and exponential growth in new types of communication methods, America’s house museums need to take bold steps and expand their overall purpose beyond those of the traditional museum. They need not only to engage the communities surrounding them, but also to collaborate with visitors on the type and quality of experience they provide. This book is a groundbreaking manifesto that calls for the establishment of a more inclusive, visitor-centered paradigm based on the shared experience of human habitation. It draws inspiration from film, theater, public art, and urban design to transform historic house museums while providing a how-to guide for making historic house museums sustainable, through five primary themes: communicating with the surrounding community, engaging the community, re-imagining the visitor experience, celebrating the detritus of human habitation, and acknowledging the illusion of the shelter’s authenticity. Anarchist's Guide to Historic House Museums offers a wry, but informed, rule-breaking perspective from authors with years of experience and gives numerous vivid examples of both good and not-so-good practices from house museums in the U.S.
