Download or read book The Smell of Sugarcane written by Beverly Ann Menke and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2013-12-16 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abandoned on foreign soil in a world where language and customs are a mystery, Sophia James, the eldest of six Californian children, is in charge—and she is only eleven. Told through the eyes of the sixty-year-old Sophia as she sits with oils painting a large canvas, The Smell of Sugarcane is based on a true story. Traveling through time with Sophia, the reader witnesses the strength and power that can be found when a human spirit is determined to survive and succeed. As she advances her painting, a remarkable story unfolds in a place where love is hidden and dangers abound and children hold tight. Rich with tropical colors, the book revolves around the island of Puerto Rico. Its factual and descriptive narrative keeps the reader captive as the painting progresses. The reader will skip a heartbeat in moments when the children are in danger and will cry for their fears and injustices or laugh and celebrate victories. The Smell of Sugarcane is about the importance of instilling strong principles and good values at an early age. Without these, the children would have been lost. This book is about picking up the torch of life and holding it high while running with all one’s might. Ultimately, it is about good profoundly triumphing over evil.

Alternately humorous and heartfelt, Vogler's memoir will inspire readers not only to look at their liquor bottle's labels more closely, but also to seek out wonderful and wonderfully made products.

The novel earns rave reviews, and Adana begins a sequel. Then she falls gravely ill. Just before she dies, she destroys the only copy of the manuscript. Decades later in Chicago, Saul Drower is cleaning out his dead grandfather’s home when he discovers a mysterious manuscript written by none other than Adana Moreau. With the help of his friend Javier, Saul tracks down an address for Adana’s son in New Orleans, but as Hurricane Katrina strikes they must head to the storm-ravaged city for answers. What results is a brilliantly layered masterpiece—an ode to home, storytelling and the possibility of parallel worlds.
Download or read book Endangered Eating America s Vanishing Foods written by Sarah Lohman and published by W. W. Norton & Company. This book was released on 2023-10-24 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the 2024 Ohioana Book Award in Nonfiction A New York Times Book Review Editors' Choice • A Food & Wine Best Book of 2023 • An Eater Best Food Book, Fall 2023 American food traditions are in danger of being lost. How do we save them? Apples, a common New England crop, have been called the United States' "most endangered food." The iconic Texas Longhorn cattle is categorized at "critical" risk for extinction. Unique date palms, found nowhere else on the planet, grow in California’s Coachella Valley—but the family farms that caretake them are shutting down. Apples, cattle, dates—these are foods that carry significant cultural weight. But they’re disappearing. In Endangered Eating, culinary historian Sarah Lohman draws inspiration from the Ark of Taste, a list compiled by Slow Food International that catalogues important regional foods. Lohman travels the country learning about the distinct ingredients at risk of being lost. Readers follow Lohman to Hawaii, as she walks alongside farmers to learn the stories behind heirloom sugarcane. In the Navajo Nation, she assists in the traditional butchering of a Navajo Churro ram. Lohman heads to the Upper Midwest, to harvest wild rice; to the Pacific Northwest, to spend a day wild salmon reefnet fishing; to the Gulf Coast, to devour gumbo made thick and green with filé powder; and to the Lowcountry of South Carolina, to taste America’s oldest peanut—long thought to be extinct. Lohman learns from those who love these rare ingredients: shepherds, fishers, and farmers; scientists, historians, and activists. And she tries her hand at raising these crops and preparing these dishes. Each chapter includes two recipes, so readers can be a part of saving these ingredients by purchasing and preparing them. Animated by stories yet grounded in historical research, Endangered Eating gives readers the tools to support community food organizations and producers that work to preserve local culinary traditions and rare, cherished foods—before it’s too late.

Download or read book I Have Seen the Living God written by Pausinn Paol Tallawah and published by Xulon Press. This book was released on 2009-02 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pastor Paol believes his greatest accomplishments are his families' altruistic and charitable work. They were able to revamp a high crime area from drugs, prostitution, neighborhood shootings, and jersey barriers. They succeeded in bringing five and half million dollars in low income tax credit to revitalize an historic site. Today he considers himself a priest for those without spiritual guidance to the Lord. God called to do His biding a bare foot little boy from a very small country in the smallest of small towns. A child that never heard of God, Jesus Christ, the Holy Spirit nor was taught the tenants of Christianity. He was ostracized by his mother's family, given up by his mother and abandoned by his father. The love of his father's brother and mother shielded him from desperation and despair. God sent His holy angel to discipline an ignorant blasphemer by force. Then the Lord stepped off His throne to bring someone in darkness into His marvelous light. The Living God introduced Himself as God of all and spoke to Paol face to face, clothed in pristine impenetrable light. The living God confirmed the order of His character as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit then called Pastor Paol to the priesthood. Pastor Paol is a husband, father and grandfather; a man called by God face to face with angels and mankind as witnesses at the tender age of six years old. He is a relative of the former Governor General of Jamaica The Most Honorable Sir. Howard Cooke, a friend of Queen Elizabeth Alexandra Mary II. He is a licensed Judao-Christian Priest. He is trained in biomedical, telecommunication engineering, orthopedics, neurophysiology and mastery in martial science. He owned several businesses, inthe arts, retail sales, broker dealer, real estate and legal brokerage.
