Download or read book Down Home written by William Mackey and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2016-01-30 with total page 458 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1969 after 20 years living in New York City, Engineer, Photographer & Educator William Henry Mackey, Jr. returned to the rural Georgia backwoods where he had been raised. During the 20 years since he had left, the South had undergone drastic changes, from the Civil Rights Era to the technological advances in farming techniques, yet at the same time it remained the same simple place where he had grown up. Mackey proceeded to photograph and interview friends, family and other residents of the area in an effort to document their history and recollections of an era that was fast fading under the onslaught of 'progress'. The result is a fascinating look into the legacy of rural Blacks in coastal Georgia and the political, technological and social changes they underwent during the century since the Emancipation Proclamation.

Download or read book Down Home written by Leonard Rogoff and published by Univ of North Carolina Press. This book was released on 2010-04-15 with total page 433 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A sweeping chronicle of Jewish life in the Tar Heel State from colonial times to the present, this beautifully illustrated volume incorporates oral histories, original historical documents, and profiles of fascinating individuals. The first comprehensive social history of its kind, Down Home demonstrates that the story of North Carolina Jews is attuned to the national story of immigrant acculturation but has a southern twist. Keeping in mind the larger southern, American, and Jewish contexts, Leonard Rogoff considers how the North Carolina Jewish experience differs from that of Jews in other southern states. He explores how Jews very often settled in North Carolina's small towns, rather than in its large cities, and he documents the reach and vitality of Jewish North Carolinians' participation in building the New South and the Sunbelt. Many North Carolina Jews were among those at the forefront of a changing South, Rogoff argues, and their experiences challenge stereotypes of a society that was agrarian and Protestant. More than 125 historic and contemporary photographs complement Rogoff's engaging epic, providing a visual panorama of Jewish social, cultural, economic, and religious life in North Carolina. This volume is a treasure to share and to keep. Published in association with the Jewish Heritage Foundation of North Carolina, Down Home is part of a larger documentary project of the same name that will include a film and a traveling museum exhibition, to be launched in June 2010.

Book excerpt: TALKING WITH THE DOGS is a story of a famous veterinarian who suddenly finds himself able to converse with dogs due to an unusual quirk of fate that happened a few months earlier at the Westminster Dog Show in New York. In this book, Dr. Zebulon is back in his veterinary hospital in a small college town, Chapel Hill, North Carolina. He continues with his ability to speak with dogs and understand what they are saying to him. During the book, we undergo the trials and tribulations of a working veterinarian in his everyday practice, dealing with all kinds of people and their dogs. It is a thorough book about the interrelationship between dogs and their human companions. An ardent client, Mary Burke, sends Dr. Zebulon an amulet she purchased in an Irish folk market. There is an Irish belief that anyone who wears this shamrock will be able to understand dog vernacular for as long as they wear it. His ability to speak with dogs is assured now. His girl friend is Sallie Predino. They became lovers at the Westminster Dog Show in New York a few months earlier. They continue their relationship in this book, become deeply involved romantically and move in with each other while they combat an evil man, Matt Dye. A restaurant owner, he is also a narcotics smuggler and drug dealer who raises dogs as a hobby. He also owns a sporting house for gentlemen where he keeps women under the influence of drugs so that they will work for him. Matt Dye desperately tries to acquire Sallie's dog because it is an outstanding specimen of a rare and expensive breed. He wants to exhibit her in dog shows and raise puppies from her for large fees. He uses all kinds of illicit methods to get this dog, and especially Voodoo, since he spent some time in Jamaica and brought back an Obeah man a voodoo specialist, to cast evil spells on any of Matt's opponents. Many types of voodoo techniques are discussed in the book. The reader accompanies Dr. Zebulon through his daily chores inside the veterinary hospital, along with his ever-present companion, Bridget McGuire. She is an Irish Setter who gives her beloved owner, Dr. Zebulon, canine advice and words of wisdom throughout the book. However, Bridget becomes very jealous of his newly found love, Sallie, and Zebulon finds himself the center of attraction as the two females wrangle for his affection. Yes, jealousy is a very strong emotion in dogs, as well as people. Lots of mystery and intrigue is unfolded as the evil man tries all of his voodoo rituals on Sallie and Dr. Zebulon in order to obtain that valuable Shar Pei dog. Eventually the police and FBI obtain evidence against Matt Dye and his illicit enterprises. Fortunately, with the help of one of Matt's rebellious dogs, Jimmy Wang, justice overcomes evil and the supernatural powers of voodoo.

Download or read book Alabama Quilts written by Mary Elizabeth Johnson Huff and published by Univ. Press of Mississippi. This book was released on 2020-11-03 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the 2022 James F. Sulzby Book Award from the Alabama Historical Association Alabama Quilts: Wilderness through World War II, 1682–1950 is a look at the quilts of the state from before Alabama was part of the Mississippi Territory through the Second World War—a period of 268 years. The quilts are examined for their cultural context—that is, within the community and time in which they were made, the lives of the makers, and the events for which they were made. Starting as far back as 1682, with a fragment that research indicates could possibly be the oldest quilt in America, the volume covers quilting in Alabama up through 1950. There are seven sections in the book to represent each time period of quilting in Alabama, and each section discusses the particular factors that influenced the appearance of the quilts, such as migration and population patterns, socioeconomic conditions, political climate, lifestyle paradigms, and historic events. Interwoven in this narrative are the stories of individuals associated with certain quilts, as recorded on quilt documentation forms. The book also includes over 265 beautiful photographs of the quilts and their intricate details. To make this book possible, authors Mary Elizabeth Johnson Huff and Carole Ann King worked with libraries, historic homes, museums, and quilt guilds around the state of Alabama, spending days on formal quilt documentation, while also holding lectures across the state and informal “quilt sharings.” The efforts of the authors involved so many community people—from historians, preservationists, librarians, textile historians, local historians, museum curators, and genealogists to quilt guild members, quilt shop owners, and quilt owners—making Alabama Quilts not only a celebration of the quilting culture within the state but also the many enthusiasts who have played a role in creating and sustaining this important art.
