Download or read book Forty Whacks written by David Kent and published by Yankee Publishing, Incorporated. This book was released on 1992 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Lizzie Borden is a name that has lived in infamy." "Wasn't this the ghoulish daughter who "took an axe and gave her mother forty whacks" and then "gave her father forty-one"? Most people know the rhyme. What they don't know are the particulars of how Lizzie was hounded by prosecutors, pursued by the press, finally acquitted - yet always presumed guilty." "For answers to these and many other questions about the unsolved mystery of Lizzie Borden, author David Kent turned to Robert A. Flynn, a native of Fall River, Massachusetts. As they delved deeper into the mystery, Kent and Flynn (author of the foreword) gained complete access to voluminous material - including newly acquired papers and never-before-published photographs that are now part of this book." "With evidence gleaned from court records and murder-scene photographs, David Kent reopened the case that shook the sleepy town of Fall River, Massachusetts, in 1892. From essential details that were white-washed in the trial, a new picture of Lizzie Borden emerges, far different from the blood-stained portrait of legend. A true-crime mystery that reads like fiction, Forty Whacks is the vivid, compelling story of this woman's defense in the merciless courtroom of public opinion."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Download or read book The Forgotten Alcott written by Azelina Flint and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2021-12-30 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection is the first academic study of the captivating life and career of expatriate artist, writer, and activist, May Alcott Nieriker. Nieriker is known as the sister of Louisa May Alcott and model for "Amy March" in Alcott’s Little Women. As this book reveals, she was much more than "Amy"—she had a more significant impact on the Concord community than her sister and later became part of the creative expat community in Europe. There, she imbued her painting with the abolitionist activism she was exposed to in childhood and pursued an ideal of artistic genius that opposed her sister’s vision of self-sacrifice. Embarking on a career that took her across London, Paris, and Rome, Nieriker won the acclaim of John Ruskin and forged a network of expatriate female painters who changed the face of nineteenth-century art, creating opportunities for women that lasted well into the twentieth century. A "Renaissance woman," Nieriker was a travel writer, teacher, and curator. She is recovered here as a transdisciplinary subject who stands between disciplines, networks, and ideologies—stiving to recognize the dignity of others. Contributors include foundational Alcott scholar Daniel Shealy and Pulitzer Prize winner John Matteson, as well as Curators, Jan Turnquist (Orchard House) and Amanda Burdan (Brandywine River Museum of Art). In this book, readers will become acquainted with a dynamic feminist thinker who transforms our understanding of the place of women artists in the wider cultural and intellectual life of nineteenth-century Britain, France, and the United States.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1854, Elizabeth "Lizzie" Jennings, an African American schoolteacher, fought back when she was unjustly denied entry to a New York City streetcar, sparking the beginnings of the long struggle to gain equal rights on public transportation. One hundred years before Rosa Parks took her stand, Elizabeth "Lizzie" Jennings tried to board a streetcar in New York City on her way to church. Though there were plenty of empty seats, she was denied entry, assaulted, and threatened all because of her race--even though New York was a free state at that time. Lizzie decided to fight back. She told her story, took her case to court--where future president Chester Arthur represented her--and won! Her victory was the first recorded in the fight for equal rights on public transportation, and Lizzie's case set a precedent. Author Beth Anderson and acclaimed illustrator E. B. Lewis bring this inspiring, little-known story to life in this captivating book.

Hawthorn Creely's not one to get involved in other people's business. But a missing person's investigation? That's another matter... Hawthorn wasn't trying to insert herself into a missing person's investigation. Or maybe she was. But that's only because Lizzie Lovett's disappearance is the one fascinating mystery their sleepy town has ever had. Bad things don't happen to popular girls like Lizzie Lovett, and Hawthorn is convinced she'll turn up at any moment—which means the time for speculation is now. So Hawthorn comes up with her own theory for Lizzie's disappearance. A theory way too absurd to take seriously...at first. The more Hawthorn talks, the more she believes. And what better way to collect evidence than to immerse herself in Lizzie's life? Like getting a job at the diner where Lizzie worked and hanging out with Lizzie's boyfriend. After all, it's not as if he killed her—or did he? Told with a unique voice that is both hilarious and heart-wrenching, Hawthorn's quest for proof may uncover the greatest truth is within herself.

Through her own battles with anxiety and coping with disappointment, she demonstrates how we can overcome obstacles and move forward with greater positivity.
