Book excerpt: Life only gives you one first kiss. And when Jesse Malone kissed Sarah Ramsey, he thought his life would change, but not in the way that it did. An unlikely childhood romance between a poor boy and a wealthy girl began the day Jesse decided to do the impossible and cross the creek. A love was born, one that would become their shelter, protecting them from the storms of their lives, until the day Jesse witnessed his mother's murder, forcing him to leave his childhood home...and first love. Ten years later, life has finally gotten better for Jesse. He has a loving family, a charming pet shop to run, and one semester left before graduating with a degree in architecture. Everything is great, until the day fate intervenes and his long-lost love walks into his shop and back into his life. Sarah, engaged to a budding attorney, is struggling to keep everything together. Her father, diagnosed with terminal cancer, is running out of time. Sarah races to build their dream business while planning her wedding in time for her father to walk her down the aisle. Their brief encounter starts a series of events that neither Jesse nor Sarah expects. After a decade of running, Jesse is now forced to face the demons from his past, while Sarah has to choose between her handsome attorney and her first love. Just when they think love has given them a second chance, Jesse is faced with an impossible decision, one that will change their lives forever.
Book Synopsis Across the Creek by : David Templeton
Download or read book Across the Creek written by David Templeton and published by . This book was released on 2020-11 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Across the Creek tells the stories of the more than 230 people who died during the 119 years of black powder manufacturing in the DuPont powder mills in Northern Delaware. Almost 300 explosions ripped through the quiet worker's communities during the 19th and early 20th centuries.Among the stories: one man toiled for fifty-five years making powder; another loss was the son of a wealthy and well known civic leader. One woman lost her father and her husband in two explosions. Another lost her husband and a son in the same blast. Several mothers gave birth to children after their father was killed in an explosion. A war hero came home from Europe only to die in a powder explosion. The stories are chilling, sad, heart-breaking, and ironic. The book was written to honor those who gave their lives during the beginning years of what would become one of the world's best known, often reviled, inventive and successful companies. Anyone who loves history and wants to learn more about the forgotten 'little guys' (and gals) who built this country will want to read this book, written by a guide at the Hagley Museum and Library, which highlights the DuPont black powder manufacturing story of America's first years. Across the Creek is the powdermen's own phrase; when one was killed in an explosion, they said he 'went across the creek.'

Book Synopsis A Misplaced Massacre by : Ari Kelman
Download or read book A Misplaced Massacre written by Ari Kelman and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2013-02-11 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the early morning of November 29, 1864, with the fate of the Union still uncertain, part of the First Colorado and nearly all of the Third Colorado volunteer regiments, commanded by Colonel John Chivington, surprised hundreds of Cheyenne and Arapaho people camped on the banks of Sand Creek in southeastern Colorado Territory. More than 150 Native Americans were slaughtered, the vast majority of them women, children, and the elderly, making it one of the most infamous cases of state-sponsored violence in U.S. history. A Misplaced Massacre examines the ways in which generations of Americans have struggled to come to terms with the meaning of both the attack and its aftermath, most publicly at the 2007 opening of the Sand Creek Massacre National Historic Site. This site opened after a long and remarkably contentious planning process. Native Americans, Colorado ranchers, scholars, Park Service employees, and politicians alternately argued and allied with one another around the question of whether the nation’s crimes, as well as its achievements, should be memorialized. Ari Kelman unearths the stories of those who lived through the atrocity, as well as those who grappled with its troubling legacy, to reveal how the intertwined histories of the conquest and colonization of the American West and the U.S. Civil War left enduring national scars. Combining painstaking research with storytelling worthy of a novel, A Misplaced Massacre probes the intersection of history and memory, laying bare the ways differing groups of Americans come to know a shared past.

But Vesey Washington is still living across the creek, and theirs is a complicated relationship—he was once her best friend . . . and also part of the reason she’s stayed away so long. When Ally discovers a message her father left behind asking her to quit running, it seems her past isn’t through with her yet. As Ally’s wandering spirit wrestles with a deep longing to flee again, a young woman on the other side of the world escapes her life of slavery in the rock quarries of Nepal.

A deep current intertwines the lives of these three souls, and a destiny of freedom, faith, and friendship awaits them all on the banks of Molasses Creek. “...Seitz has written good stories in the past butBeyond Molasses Creek exceeds all of them.”—Jackie K.

If Cussy wants to bring the joy of books to the hill folks, she's going to have to confront prejudice as old as the Appalachias and suspicion as deep as the holler. Inspired by the true blue-skinned people of Kentucky and the brave and dedicated Kentucky Pack Horse library service of the 1930s, The Book Woman of Troublesome Creek is a story of raw courage, fierce strength, and one woman's belief that books can carry us anywhere—even back home.
