Book Synopsis The Beloved Captive by : Amelia Dale Smith
Download or read book The Beloved Captive written by Amelia Dale Smith and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2023-01-05 with total page 355 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Men go out in the desert to find their puha–their power. Why can a woman not do the same? The girl wondered. She looked at her hands. Maybe this is a dream, she hoped. A medicine woman once told Wa Shana that if one could see their own hands in a dream, they could control their dream to learn many secrets. Wa Shana’s hands were cracked and bleeding, from days of scraping buffalo hides and tending the cooking fires. Her whole life was one of toil, drudgery and scolding from the older women of the village. The dizziness, this sense of being apart from her body, had started in mid-afternoon. Only a swallow or two remained in her goatskin bag; she needed to save it. Except for some pemmican and a small knife, she had no other provisions. What little status Wa Shana had in the tribe was gone. A woman’s power, her ‘puha’, came from being the center of a family—the power of drawing in a man, becoming the wife of a warrior, giving birth and raising children. Wa Shana no longer had any of that. She only had the reputation of humming strange songs to herself when she worked, which only intensified the tribe’s belief that she was possessed by an evil spirit. Amelia D.

Book Synopsis Beloved Beasts: Fighting for Life in an Age of Extinction by : Michelle Nijhuis
Download or read book Beloved Beasts: Fighting for Life in an Age of Extinction written by Michelle Nijhuis and published by W. W. Norton & Company. This book was released on 2021-03-09 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the Sierra Club's 2021 Rachel Carson Award One of Chicago Tribune's Ten Best Books of 2021 Named a Top Ten Best Science Book of 2021 by Booklist and Smithsonian Magazine "At once thoughtful and thought-provoking,” Beloved Beasts tells the story of the modern conservation movement through the lives and ideas of the people who built it, making “a crucial addition to the literature of our troubled time" (Elizabeth Kolbert, author of The Sixth Extinction). In the late nineteenth century, humans came at long last to a devastating realization: their rapidly industrializing and globalizing societies were driving scores of animal species to extinction. In Beloved Beasts, acclaimed science journalist Michelle Nijhuis traces the history of the movement to protect and conserve other forms of life. From early battles to save charismatic species such as the American bison and bald eagle to today’s global effort to defend life on a larger scale, Nijhuis’s “spirited and engaging” account documents “the changes of heart that changed history” (Dan Cryer, Boston Globe). With “urgency, passion, and wit” (Michael Berry, Christian Science Monitor), she describes the vital role of scientists and activists such as Aldo Leopold and Rachel Carson, reveals the origins of vital organizations like the Audubon Society and the World Wildlife Fund, explores current efforts to protect species such as the whooping crane and the black rhinoceros, and confronts the darker side of modern conservation, long shadowed by racism and colonialism. As the destruction of other species continues and the effects of climate change wreak havoc on our world, Beloved Beasts charts the ways conservation is becoming a movement for the protection of all species including our own.

Book excerpt: An injured Apache girl adopted by a powerful rancher, the rancher's son kidnapped by the last free Apaches-in the 1920s Sierra Madre.In Deathsong, volume two of the Beloved Captive Trilogy, we follow the unforgettable characters introduced in Far Blue Mountains. Ride with Jubal McKenna, searching the sierras for Apache camps and his captive son. With each cold trail his mission turns from rescue to revenge. Meanwhile John Russell McKenna-now called Denali, his Apache name-undergoes the warrior's rite of passage. Every step of the way we are with Denali, descending into a hidden bee cave to gather wild honey, in the dark woods of his vision quest, and when he discovers a shocking secret about the band's immortal shaman. The secret threatens Denali's new life. We are perched like a carrion angel on Cain's shoulder while he relives the past. A dream within a dream-Cain's theft of a mysterious ring from a dead man's hand, his time as a cavalry officer, lost years wandering continents as a soldier of fortune. Dolores, Jubal's adopted Apache daughter, feels her heart torn as the momentum of two worlds builds to unstoppable collision. Inspired by historical events, Deathsong is a triumph from Max McNabb, editor of TexasHillCountry.com. One to the heart, one to the head-McNabb's prose is a knock-out combo of grand adventure and bone-deep longing.

Meanwhile Sethe’s house has long been troubled by the angry, destructive ghost of her baby, who died nameless and whose tombstone is engraved with a single word: Beloved.
