Book excerpt: Long before womens liberation, reporter-wannabe Jennifer Patricia Stein suffered from gender discrimination. Rather than letting male voices of discouragement wound her, she instead became strong and determined, eventually morphing into a successful journalist. Now middle-aged and newly divorced, Jennifer, also known as J.P., has returned to Cincinnatiready to launch a new career at the Star-Times newspaper as its chief feature writer. But before she can finish her interview with Andy Stokes, the newspapers managing editor, he is distracted by a breaking news story on television. Ninety-year-old Lana Koppler, the most famous resident of Pleasant Hill Farm retirement community, is missing after a fire that destroyed her penthouse. Knowing that J.P. is comfortable interviewing elders, Stokes quickly hires her and sends her to the campus to find the multi-millionaire philanthropist. It is not long before J.P. discovers Lana inside WOLD, the Farms tiny radio station, and she finds herself once again propelled into the exciting life of a reporter focused on immersing herself into the nitty-gritty details of every story. With the help of a zany radio station crew, J.P. provides an uncensored glimpse into the lives of seniors who laugh, love, lust, and dabble in crime at a luxurious retirement community.

Download or read book Cincinnati The World War II Years written by Robert Earnest Miller and published by Arcadia Library Editions. This book was released on 2004-11-01 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cincinnati: The World War II Years explores a significant chapter in the history of greater Cincinnati: the time before, during, and immediately after World War II. The book, spanning from 1937 to 1955, examines trends in the social, political, and cultural history of the city and surrounding communities. Events transpiring in Cincinnati mirrored changes that the United States experienced during this pivotal period--the Great Depression, isolationist impulses, the mobilization for war, and the postwar economic boom. Because Cincinnati's war years so closely reflect larger national trends of the time, the story of this city's home front experience serves as an insightful case study of the national war experience.
Download or read book World War II Cincinnati written by Robert Earnest Miller and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2014-10-14 with total page 179 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: World War II transformed Cincinnati from a relatively important but parochial midwestern city into a teeming bastion of military might. While thousands served in the nation's armed forces, others contributed to rationing programs, salvage drives, blackouts and war bond rallies. Scores of community-based programs blossomed as Cincinnatians on the home front threw themselves wholeheartedly into the "total war" that Washington believed necessary for victory. After answering the call to treat domestic duty as seriously as any battleground assignment, the Queen City emerged from the war as utterly changed as the nation itself. Author Robert Miller brings to life this dramatic, patriotic period in Cincinnati's history.

Download or read book The Wild Woman of Cincinnati written by Michael D. Pierson and published by LSU Press. This book was released on 2023-04-05 with total page 191 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Popular entertainment in antebellum Cincinnati ran the gamut from high culture to shows barely above the level of the tawdry. Among the options for those seeking entertainment in the summer of 1856 was the display of a “Wild Woman,” purportedly a young woman captured while living a feral life beyond the frontier. The popular exhibit, which featured a silent, underdressed woman chained to a bed, was almost assuredly a hoax. Local activist women, however, used their influence to prompt a judge to investigate the display. The court employed eleven doctors, who forcibly subdued and examined the woman before advising that she be admitted to an insane asylum. In his riveting analysis of this remarkable episode in antebellum American history, Michael D. Pierson describes how people in different political parties and sections of the country reacted to the exhibit. Specifically, he uses the lens of the Wild Woman display to explore the growing cultural divisions between the North and the South in 1856, especially the differing gender ideologies of the northern Republican Party and the more southern focused Democrats. In addition, Pierson shows how the treatment of the Wild Woman of Cincinnati prompted an increasing demand for women’s political and social empowerment at a time when the country allowed for the display of a captive female without evidence that she had granted consent.

Download or read book Cincinnati s Crosley Field written by Gregory H. Wolf and published by . This book was released on 2018-06-09 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: April 11, 1912, marked a new era in the history of the Cincinnati Reds. On that day the team inaugurated the season by playing its first game at Redland Field, which was renamed Crosley Field in 1934 in honor of the team's owner, Powel Crosley. The new steel and concrete ballpark was located at the site of its predecessor, the outdated wooden Palace of the Fans at the intersection of Findlay Street and Western Avenue. For almost six decades, Crosley Field beckoned like a shining gem surrounded by warehouses and industrial complexes in the Queensgate neighborhood of the Queen City. The Reds closed the book on Crosley Field on June 24, 1970, and moved into Riverfront Stadium, a modern all-purpose sports venue that held almost twice as many spectators. This book evokes memories of Crosley Field through detailed summaries of more than 85 historic and monumental games played there, and 10 insightful feature essays about the history of the ballpark. Former Reds players Johnny Edwards and Art Shamsky share their memories of the park in introductions. Among the exciting contests recounted here are an Opening Day no-hitter in 1918, action from the infamous 1919 World Series, Negro Leagues action, Joe DiMaggio's 1939 World Series heroics, Johnny Van Der Meer's incredible summer of two no-hitters, and no-hitters by Lon Warneke and Clyde Shoun. Hank Aaron's 3000th hit took place at Crosley Field, as did indelible performances by Pete Rose, Roberto Clemente, and Frank Robinson. This volume is a collaborative effort of more than three dozen members of the Society for American Baseball Research (SABR), including Alan Cohen, Art Shamsky, Bill Schneider, Bob Buege, Brian P. Wood, C. Paul Rogers III, Chad Dotson, Dan Fields, Doug Feldmann, Gordon Gattie, Greg Erion, Greg Rhodes, Gregory H.
