Download or read book Mama s Diamonds written by Emcie Day and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2008-12-20 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ms. Day was born and raised in a small town in upstate New York during the late 30's through the early 50's. Being part of a family of nine children and an alcoholic father brought on many hardships, yet there were many delightful moments as well. "Mama's Diamonds" is a collection of these tales. The story tells of the extent that the mother and children of this poor Irish family had to go through and the things they had to endure in order to survive. Their wily nature helped. Mama O'Brien loved all her children and would have been shocked to know what devious means they used and the risks they took in order to obtain some of the necessities of life. Perhaps she knew, but just couldn't bear to acknowledge that this was for the most part, required in order to supplement the meager substance provided by their father. One might ask about her precious diamonds and their worth, and why couldn't they be used to help support the family; but they did ... just not in a materialistic sense.

Download or read book Words of Truth written by Donald J. Richardson and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2007-01-10 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The impetus for Words of Truth came about when I read a newspaper article observing the fortieth anniversary of the Selma, Alabama Civil Rights march. This was an important event in our nations history, and it touched the lives of everyone who participated. Although I was old enough to take part in the march, I wasnt involved and, in fact, paid little attention to what was going on in the South except for what I saw on the evening news. Thus, my firsthand knowledge is nil. However, I know someone who actually marched, and Andrew Youngs book and the Saturday Evening Post article are quite thorough. As has been pointed out numerous times, the marchers--not the organizers or the leaders--are the ones who actually changed history.

I did my duty by driving over seven-hundred miles and helping my siblings clean a bloody room, empty the house, and make funeral arrangements.

Book excerpt: By the time Sylvia Richardson is eighteen, she has buried her parents; given birth to a daughter; and become a widow. It is 1942, and World War II has destroyed Sylvias dream of dancing in red heels through life to the melody of a Hank Snow record. Instead, she is raising her daughter, Sassy, alone in the coal mining town she vowed to leave behind. By 1955, thirteen-year-old Sassy has been brought up on a stiff dose of Mamas lessons on how to be a ladyeven though Mama drinks, smokes, and dates a myriad of men. But everything changes the day a woman accuses Sylvia of trying to steal her husband, forcing Sassy to come to terms with her Mamas harsh teen years. For Sylvia, only the support of kith and kin can rescue her from her mistakes. Spanning twenty years, Mamas Shoes is a haunting saga of love, despair, and forgiveness as a cadence of female voices weaves a spell of mountain lore and secrets, defines family as more than blood kin, and proves second chances can bring happiness. An absolutely wonderful novel, its setting a beautifully realized small Appalachian coal town, its characters so vivid theyre practically jumping off the page.
