Download or read book Loyal to the Land written by Billy Bergin and published by University of Hawaii Press. This book was released on 2006-08-31 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This heartfelt and often personal work continues the story of the Big Island’s Parker Ranch, one of the largest and most beautiful cattle ranches in the United States. It begins with the dynastic transition in ranch management from the formidable A. W. Carter to his son, Hartwell, who would be responsible for bringing the ranch effectively into the twentieth century. Although supervision of the ranch officially changed hands in 1937, A. W.’s wide-ranging influence continued to be felt for at least another decade. Later Hartwell Carter would also have to contend with the whims of ranch owner Richard Smart, who returned to the Islands in 1959, eager to take direct control of his estate. Under Carter’s stewardship, Parker Ranch raised its cow herd size by fifty percent and, through its subsidiary, Hawaii Meat Company, converted its beef marketing from a range-finished animal to a feedlot-confined, corn-fed, marbled carcass acceptable to the modern housewife. Hartwell Carter was followed by his assistant, Richard (Dick) Penhallow, as ranch manager in 1960. Penhallow’s tenure is given a detailed overview that illuminates his ambitious goals for improvements in water, land, livestock, personnel development, and the economics of the beef industry. Although Penhallow’s grand scheme for reorganizing an inefficient and divided industry into a single cooperative using state-of-the-art facilities ultimately failed, the subsequent history of beef marketing in the Islands bears out the soundness and wisdom of his ideas. In 1962 Smart selected Radcliffe (Rally) Greenwell as Penhallow’s successor. The new ranch manager arrived with strong, traditional values of stewardship handed down from generations of Kona ranchers. Greenwell’s initiatives were clear: to further enhance water development and increase the cow herd by thirty percent. He also instituted research to determine the cause of a scourge among young cattle called yellow calf syndrome. As the nine-year management of Greenwell unfolds, the book offers a close look at the leadership team of the era, which included Harry Kawai, John Kawamoto, Willie Kaniho, Yutaka Kimura, John Lekelesa, and Harry Ah Fong Ah Sam. The author, who became ranch veterinarian in 1970, also provides personal insights in the later sections of the book into the use of the element copper to greatly enhance the growth and health of cattle and the birth and expansion of the ranch’s Animal Health Program. The work concludes with the introduction of the mainland management team of Rubel and Lent, whose attempt to return to a pyramidal management structure took Parker Ranch by storm.

Book What We Talk About When We Talk About Love

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The most celebrated story collection from “one of the true American masters” (The New York Review of Books)—a haunting meditation on love, loss, and companionship, and finding one’s way through the dark that includes the iconic and much-referenced title story featured in the Academy Award-winning film Birdman. "Raymond Carver's America is ... clouded by pain and the loss of dreams, but it is not as fragile as it looks. It is a place of survivors and a place of stories.... [Carver] has done what many of the most gifted writers fail to do: He has invented a country of his own, like no other except that very world, as Wordsworth said, which is the world to all of us." —The New York Times Book Review

Book Respect for the Jews

    Book Details:
  • Author : Franz Posset
  • Publisher : Wipf and Stock Publishers
  • Release : 2019-09-30
  • ISBN : 1532670907
  • Pages : 307 pages

Download or read book Respect for the Jews written by Franz Posset and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2019-09-30 with total page 307 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Eight different historical-theological studies are assembled here under the title Respect for the Jews. They focus primarily on positive Catholic attitudes toward Jews during the turbulent years of the first half of the sixteenth century. The number of authors and texts are relatively small, but need to be brought out into the open. For the first time, a speech in praise of the language of the Jews by the early ecumenist, Georg Witzel (1501–1573), is made available in English. Other Catholic Hebraists who are featured include Johann Reuchlin (1455–1522), Matthaeus Adrianus (ca. 1470–1521), Robert Wakefield (died 1537), and Nicolaus Winmann (ca. 1500–1550). Their brilliant works are presented in front of the sinister backdrop of the vicious attacks against the Jews by the well-educated Catholic convert of Jewish descent, Johann Pfefferkorn (ca. 1469–1521), a self-appointed Catholic missionary to the Jews, and also against the background of the scandalous outbursts of the Grobian Reformer, Martin Luther (1483–1546). Volume 4 of the author’s Collected Works fosters the idea that Jews and Christians are “study partners,” rather than antagonists—as visualized in the new statue “Synagogue and Church in Our Time” (as shown on the cover).

  • Pages : 190 pages

Download or read book Clan Novel Ventrue written by Gherbod Fleming and published by Crossroad Press. This book was released on 2019-03-05 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Vampire the Masquerade Clan Novel Saga is a thirteen-volume masterpiece, presenting the war between the established Camarilla leadership and the growing power of the brutal Sabbat on the East Coast of the United States. Each novel is told from the perspective of one of the thirteen clans, intertwining with the others, and filling in missing pieces artfully as we follow battle after battle, intrigue after intrigue—and the appearance of a strange artifact that falls into the hands of a solitary Toreador sculptor. Clan Novel Ventrue is the fifth in the series. War rages among the children of the night. The monstrous vampires of the Sabbat ravage the East Coast from Savannah to Washington, D.C. Camarilla princes who ruled for centuries are ashes on the wind, burning cities the only witnesses to their passing. Elders of the Camarilla call on Jan Pieterzoon, Ventrue childe of privilege, to turn the tide of battle. To succeed in his task, he must navigate a minefield of shifting alliances, where tonight's co-conspirator is tomorrow's enemy. If Jan can survive his friends, he might just have a chance against the Sabbat. This series is a monumental, 13-novel exploration of the forbidden world of the Kindred. What began in Clan Novel: Toreador continues here, and its ending will determine the fate of every human—and inhuman—being in the world.

Clan Novel Brujah is the eleventh novel in the series. The monstrous vampires of the Sabbat are swarming north in ever-increasing numbers and threatening to overwhelm Baltimore, the last bastion of Camarilla power on the U.S. East Coast. Theo Bell, archon of Clan Brujah, is the Kindred in the trenches. While the elders pontificate and vie for influence, he's holding the city's defenses together. He's undermanned, out-gunned, and, as if that weren't enough, he's forced to dodge fallout from the personal agendas and intrigues of his allies. Is a spy leaking vital information to the Sabbat? Who is behind the plot against Prince Garlotte of Baltimore? How much do the secretive Nosferatu really know? Is Theo's Ventrue partner, Jan Pieterzoon, on the level? Too many potentially lethal distractions for Theo, and meanwhile the Sabbat keep coming... This series is a monumental, 13-novel exploration of the forbidden world of the Kindred. What began in Clan Novel: Toreador continues here, and its ending will determine the fate of every human–and inhuman–being in the world.

Book Sensing the Scriptures

  • Publisher : Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing
  • Release : 2014-09-21
  • ISBN : 1467442119
  • Pages : 176 pages

Download or read book Sensing the Scriptures written by Karlfried Froehlich and published by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing. This book was released on 2014-09-21 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the ways that Christians, from the period of late antiquity through the Protestant Reformation, interpreted the Bible according to its several levels of meaning. Using the five bodily senses as an organizing principle, Karlfried Froehlich probes key theological developments, traditions, and approaches across this broad period, culminating in a consideration of the implications of this historical development for the contemporary church. Distinguishing between "principles" and "rules" of interpretation, Froehlich offers a clear and useful way of discerning the fundamental difference between interpretive methods (rules) and the overarching spiritual goals (principles) that must guide biblical interpretation. As a study of roots and reasons as well as the role of imagination in the development of biblical interpretation, Sensing the Scriptures reminds us how intellectually and spiritually relevant the pursuit of a historical perspective is for Christian faith and life today.
