Book excerpt: Tuckahoes Golden Boy Chris Cameron had his future all mapped out. He was the big fish in the small pond as a star athlete and academic standout. Off to the University of Texas to play football, he was on track to make his Italian-American mother and Irish father proud. His two blood brothers chose different paths. Soon after high school, Sal Esposito and Tony Albanese were swept into the life of organized crime. Imposing figures, the pair assisted with strong-armed activities for their capo. Away from that life, Cameron periodically returned to his neighborhood roots to assist his blood brothers in retribution and risk his promising future to avenge violent threats to his lifelong bond. Filled with suspense and character twists, Camerons Quest is set in the 1980s and relives a time when an Italian-American familys Sunday dinner table was the only setting needed for therapy sessions, interrogations, judgment, and jury for any punishment. This novel reminisces about the Mets championship season, Reagonomics, John Gottis underworld reign, and the pop culture of the time.

Book Synopsis Janet McDonald by : Catherine Ross-Stroud
Download or read book Janet McDonald written by Catherine Ross-Stroud and published by Scarecrow Press. This book was released on 2008-11-24 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Much has been written about the state of Black adolescence_often from a sociological point of view situating Black teens in an at-risk category. However, through her characters, young adult author Janet McDonald (1954-2007) presents the wide range of adolescent life. McDonald especially presents to readers the multifarious views of society in relation to the self-efficacious drive of urban teens to rise above their circumstances by any means necessary. Janet McDonald: The Original Project Girl is a bio-critical study of McDonald and her work as it relates to the contributions she has made to the genre of teen fiction. It explains McDonald's profoundly realistic fiction, which holds wide appeal for teens in search of answers to the coming of age mystery. Catherine Ross-Stroud, in her study of McDonald's works and interviews with the author, has put together a comprehensive resource that will be a useful research tool.

Download or read book Voices of the Asian American and Pacific Islander Experience [2 volumes] written by Sang Chi and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2012-02-13 with total page 950 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This unique work presents an extraordinary breadth of contemporary and historical views on Asian America and Pacific Islanders, conveyed through the voices of the men and women who lived these experiences over more than 150 years. In 1848, the "First Wave" of Asian immigration arrived in the United States. By the first decade of the 21st century, Asian Americans were the nation's fastest growing racial group. Through a far-ranging array of primary source documents, Voices of the Asian American and Pacific Islander Experience shares what it was like for these diverse peoples to live and work in the United States, for better and for worse. Organized chronologically by ethnicity, the book covers a panoply of ethnic groups, including recent Asian immigrants and mixed race/mixed heritage Asian Americans. There is also a topical section that showcases views on everything from politics to class to gender dynamics, underscoring that the Asian American population is not—nor has it ever been—monolithic. In choosing material, the editors strove to make the volume as comprehensive as possible. Thus, readers will discover documents written by transnational, adopted, and homosexual Asian Americans, as well as documents written from particular religious positions.

Book Synopsis The Cinema of James Cameron by : James Clarke
Download or read book The Cinema of James Cameron written by James Clarke and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2014-09-16 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This timely volume explores the massively popular cinema of writer-director James Cameron. It couches Cameron's films within the evolving generic traditions of science fiction, melodrama, and the cinema of spectacle. The book also considers Cameron's engagement with the aesthetic of visual effects and the 'now' technology of performance-capture which is arguably moving a certain kind of event-movie cinema from photography to something more akin to painting. This book is explicit in presenting Cameron as an authentic auteur, and each chapter is dedicated to a single film in his body of work, from The Terminator to Avatar. Space is also given to discussion of Strange Days as well as his short films and documentary works.
Book Synopsis Yuletide Punch by : Cameron O'Connell
Download or read book Yuletide Punch written by Cameron O'Connell and published by Phantom Queen Diaries. This book was released on 2021-12-14 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tis the season...for slaying Fresh off a disturbingly long absence for which she has no explanation or recollection, Quinn MacKenna-reformed Catholic, semi-retired arms dealer, and borderline alcoholic-is busy enjoying the Nordic idea of an afterparty before becoming quickly embroiled in a bitter power struggle coinciding with the advent of the Yuletide season. The issue at hand: the future of the Norse pantheon and its role in the mysterious Omega War to come. The participants: Odin, the All-father and leader of the Aesir, against his younger brothers, Vili and Vé. Unfortunately, amidst this tumultuous backdrop, Quinn finds herself bereft of everything she once possessed: her Valkyrie armor, her legendary spear, and even her dubious divinity. As such, Quinn has no choice but to broker lopsided alliances and cultivate tenuous friendships while searching for answers to questions she doesn't even know how to ask. Of course, when dealing with ancient and occasionally spiteful gods, it's not always easy to tell who's been naughty and who's been nice. To that end, Quinn must decide what paths to take and how far she's willing to go down them-even if that means doing so while blind. But then perhaps it really is as simple as some people say: seeing is believing and believing is seeing. Even if you have to trade an eye for the privilege. If you like Jim Butcher, Kevin Hearne, Steve McHugh, Michael Anderle, Ilona Andrews, Patricia Briggs, Shannon Mayer, or K.F. Breene, you won't be able to put down the highly addictive Phantom Queen Diaries or anything else in the Temple Verse.

Book Synopsis Julia Margaret Cameron’s ‘fancy subjects’ by : Jeffrey Rosen
Download or read book Julia Margaret Cameron’s ‘fancy subjects’ written by Jeffrey Rosen and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 2016-09-30 with total page 532 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nominated for the William MB Berger Prize for British Art History 2017. The Victorians admired Julia Margaret Cameron for her evocative photographic portraits of eminent men like Tennyson, Carlyle and Darwin. However, Cameron also made numerous photographs that she called 'Fancy subjects', depicting scenes from literature, personifications from classical mythology, and Biblical parables from the Old and New Testament. This book is the first comprehensive study of these works, examining Cameron's use of historical allegories and popular iconography to embed moral, intellectual and political narratives in her photographs. A work of cultural history as much as art history, this book examines cartoons from Punch and line drawings from the Illustrated London News, cabinet photographs and autotype prints, textiles and wall paper, book illustrations and lithographs from period folios, all as a way to contextualise the allegorical subjects that Cameron represented, revealing connections between her 'Fancy subjects' and popular debates about such topics as Biblical interpretation, democratic government and colonial expansion.
Book Synopsis Descent into Darkness by : Edward C. Raymer
Download or read book Descent into Darkness written by Edward C. Raymer and published by Naval Institute Press. This book was released on 2012-03-15 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On December 7, 1941, as the great battleships Arizona, Oklahoma, and Utah lie paralyzed and burning in the aftermath of the Japanese ttack on Pearl Harbor, a crack team of U.S. Navy salvage divers headed by Edward C. Raymer are hurriedly flown to Oahu from the mainland. The divers have been given a Herculean task: rescue the sailors and Marines trapped below, and resurrect the pride of the Pacific fleet. Now for the first time, the chief diver of the Pearl Harbor salvage operations, Cmdr. Edward C. Raymer, USN (Ret.), tells the whole story of the desperate attempts to save crewmembers caught inside their sinking ships. Descent into Darkness is the only book available that describes the raising and salvage operations of sunken battleships following the December 7th attack. Once Raymer and his crew of divers entered the interiors of the sunken shipwrecks—attempting untested and potentially deadly diving techniques—they experienced a world of total blackness, unable to see even the faceplates of their helmets. By memorizing the ships’ blueprints and using their sense of touch, the divers groped their way hundreds of feet inside the sunken vessels to make repairs and salvage vital war material. The divers learned how to cope with such unseen dangers as falling objects, sharks, the eerie presence of floating human bodies, and the constant threat of Japanese attacks from above. Though many of these divers were killed or seriously injured during the wartime salvage operations, on the whole they had great success performing what seemed to be impossible jobs. Among their credits, Raymer’s crew raised the sunken battleships West Virginia, Nevada, and California. After Pearl Harbor they moved on to other crucial salvage work off Guadalcanal and the sites of other great sea battles.
