Slave Culture [3 volumes]


Book Description

For the first time, the WPA Slave Narratives are organized by theme, making it easier to examine—and understand—specific aspects of slave life and culture. There is no better way to appreciate history than to experience it through the eyes of those who lived it. Slave Culture: A Documentary Collection of the Slave Narratives from the Federal Writers' Project brings together the memories of the last generation of enslaved African Americans gathered through interviews conducted between 1936 and 1938. This three-volume work stands apart from previous Slave Narrative collections in that it organizes the narratives thematically, bringing the rich tapestry of slave culture to life in a fresh way. Within each thematic area, multiple excerpts span time, gender, and geography. An introductory essay for each theme and a contextual explanation for each narrative help readers draw lessons from this vast collection, while an introduction to the work explains the Works Progress Administration's Slave Narrative project—illuminating still another era in American history.




A List and a Promise


Book Description

"God wants us to have our heart's desire, but if we don't know what that is, how can we expect Him to give it to us? Creating a list will help us decide which qualities we really want in a husband. I believe 'Perfectly Matched' will work for us. I know it's going to work for me." With this argument, Eva Rose convinces her single women's group to test an idea that promises to help them find the perfect mate. During the creation of her list, each woman is inspired to re-evaluate her attitude toward the opposite sex. When the least likely candidate for marriage turns out to be the project's first success, hope sparks in the hearts of the others-except for jaded, independent Laura, who insists that the man on her list doesn't exist. Sally Lane was born in Joliet, Illinois but moved to Harrison, Arkansas as a single mom in 1975. She is a partner in a real estate company and enjoys writing in her spare time. A List and a Promise is her first novel. Sally shares wisdom learned before marrying the man on her list through the fictitious characters in the story.




Boxes


Book Description

Collections. Stamps, spoons, seashells, scrapbooks—they’re a familiar part of a human life, a gathering together of objects, each imbued with more meaning than it would have on its own. For Donnan Runkel, the varied containers crowded on top of her dresser became not just a collection of boxes to hold her jewelry but a link to people in her life who made her who she is. Hers is a collection of influences and experiences, changes and challenges, held within containers as unique as the individuals who gave them to her. A tin box sits beside sterling silver filigree, cut crystal next to painted paper, Russian enamel next to Haitian jungle wood. Each one of these boxes contains a rich story of transformation that, woven together, become a unique memoir. In Boxes: Lifting the Lid on an American Life, we hear vivid, often hilarious, recollections of a life that began in awkward self-doubt and blossomed into the discovery of true love and the triumphs of motherhood and career. Through this journey, we learn that the pain of life folds into the many-faceted depths of becoming.




I Choose To Live


Book Description

Through it all, one must make two major decisions: to trust in God's unchanging hand and to live through it. It can make you bitter, or it can make you better. Throughout this book, you will see how I made a choice to live... Many circumstances were thrown in my way and tried to stop me and take my very life. Through my faith and relationship with the Lord, I made an adamant decision to live. To the readers, I pray you find yourself in this book. I pray that you are inspired to walk in faith and overcome any situation that has been put before you... Remember, with God, all things are possible. Sincerely, Alexis Murphy

The Trans-Mississippi and International Expositions of 1898–1899


Book Description

The Trans-Mississippi Exposition of 1898 celebrated Omaha’s key economic role as a center of industry west of the Mississippi River and its arrival as a progressive metropolis after the Panic of 1893. The exposition also promoted the rise of the United States as an imperial power, at the time on the brink of the Spanish-American War, and the nation’s place in bringing “civilization” to Indigenous populations both overseas and at the conclusion of the recent Plains Indian Wars. The Omaha World’s Fair, however, is one of the least studied American expositions. Wendy Jean Katz brings together leading scholars to better understand the event’s place in the larger history of both Victorian-era America and the American West. The interdisciplinary essays in this volume cover an array of topics, from competing commercial visions of the cities of the Great West; to the role of women in the promotion of City Beautiful ideals of public art and urban planning; and the constructions of Indigenous and national identities through exhibition, display, and popular culture. Leading scholars T. J. Boisseau, Bonnie M. Miller, Sarah J. Moore, Nancy Parezo, Akim Reinhardt, and Robert Rydell, among others, discuss this often-misunderstood world’s fair and its place in the Victorian-era ascension of the United States as a world power.
