They christened the bomber, "The Spirit of South High," after which it flew off never to be heard from again, until now.

Download or read book Freedom to Smoke written by Jarrett Rudy and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 2005-09-30 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the late Victorian era, smoking was a male habit and tobacco was consumed mostly in pipes and cigars. By the mid-twentieth century, advertising and movies had not only made it acceptable for women to smoke but smoking had become a potent symbol of their emancipation. From mass cigarette production in 1888 to the first studies linking cigarettes to lung cancer in 1950, The Freedom to Smoke explores gender and other key issues related to smoking in Montreal, including the arrival of "big tobacco," first attempts to ban the cigarette, wartime tobacco funds, French Canadian smoking habits, rituals of manliness, and the growing respectability of women smokers - none of which have been examined by historians. Jarrett Rudy argues that while people smoked for highly personal reasons, their smoking rituals were embedded in social relations and shaped by dominant norms of taste and etiquette. The Freedom to Smoke examines the role of the tobacco industry, health experts, churches, farmers, newspapers, the military, the state, and smokers themselves. A pioneering city-based study, it weaves Western understandings of respectable smoking through Montreal's diverse social and cultural fabric. Rudy argues that etiquette gave smoking a political role, reflecting and serving to legitimize beliefs about inclusion, exclusion, and hierarchy that were at the core of a transforming liberal order.

Download or read book Growing Up Yooper written by Jim Kane and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2008-12-01 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Charming and unassuming, Jim Kane's recollections of his childhood in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan paints for the reader as much of his innocent, sweet nature as about the lessons he learns. He had the good fortune of being reared in a family that provided "way cool" experiences. The nostalgia of one's childhood offers a host of material for our memoir writing today, and Jim Kane's Growing Up Yooper illuminates much of what is missing in today's culture. Mary Luther, Professor Emeritus, English Department, Muskegon Community College, Muskegon, Michigan "For any young man who grew up in a rural town atmosphere in the 1940's and 50's, this book will speak to you. It is a reminder of all that was good in that life, another era that we now miss deeply. Jim Kane has captured the essence of that life, when it was much simpler and the rewards came from family and community. Whether it is a first car, first date, first buck, or just exploring the wonders of the woods and streams with good friends, it will speak to you and bring back memories that are buried deep within your psyche. Treat yourself to a trip down a young man's capture of his Upper Peninsula roots in the State of Michigan." Frank P. Marczak, Ed.D., Class of 58, AD Johnson High School, Bessemer, Michigan "Whether telling a story about attending a high school prom or catching brook trout, Jim Kane ably captures the charm and innocence of his boyhood in Michigan's Upper Peninsula. Each chapter is a reminder of the joys of simplicity: a job well done, a compliment from a parent, a blueberry muffin, a treasured hunting rifle. These are the rich experiences that we share as people of the Upper Peninsula, our stories." Dean Premo, Ph.D., Co-founder of White Water Associates, Inc. (Ecological Consulting & Environmental Laboratory), Co-founder of White Water family band, Amasa, Iron County, Michigan

Book excerpt: Set in the mysterious landscape of the bogs of rural Ireland, Carr's lyrical and timeless play tells the story of Hester Swane, an Irish traveller with a deep and unearthly connection to her land.

On the brink of despair, she embarks on a terrible journey of vengeance as the secrets of her tangled history are revealed. 'A piece of poetic realism steeped in the past... Carr has an extraordinary ability to move between the mythic and the real.' Guardian 'A great play... a great work of poetry... the word should soon carry across both sides of the Atlantic.'

Book Synopsis James K. Humphrey and the Sabbath-Day Adventists by : R. Clifford Jones
Download or read book James K. Humphrey and the Sabbath-Day Adventists written by R. Clifford Jones and published by Univ. Press of Mississippi. This book was released on 2009-09-18 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In James K. Humphrey and the Sabbath-Day Adventists, R. Clifford Jones tells the story of this important black religious figure and his attempt to bring about self-determination for twentieth-century blacks in New York City. Humphrey was a Baptist minister who joined the Seventh-day Adventist (SDA) Church shortly after arriving in New York City from Jamaica at the turn of the twentieth century. A leader of uncommon competency and charisma, Humphrey functioned as an SDA minister in Harlem during the time the community became the black capital of the United States. Though he led his congregation to a position of prominence within the SDA denomination, Humphrey came to believe the black experience in Adventism was one of disenfranchisement. When he refused to alter his plans for a utopian community for blacks in the face of dissent from SDA church leaders, Humphrey's ministerial credentials were revoked and his congregation was dissolved. Subsequently, Humphrey established an independent black religious organization, the United Sabbath-Day Adventists. This book rescues the Sabbath-Day Adventists from obscurity. Humphrey's break with the Seventh-day Adventists provides clues to the state of black-white relationships in the denomination at the time. It set the stage for the creation of the separate administrative structure for blacks established by the SDA church in 1945. This history of a minister and his church demonstrates the struggles of small, independent, black congregations in the urban community during the twentieth century.
Book Synopsis Albion in the Twentieth Century by : Frank Passic
Download or read book Albion in the Twentieth Century written by Frank Passic and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2002 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Albion Malleable Iron Company was the major influence in bringing hundreds of workers from eastern and southern Europe, and from southern U.S. states to Albion, Michigan, in the early 20th century. These workers established their families and lived their lives in this industrial town, which grew to become a true "melting pot" of ethnic diversity in the 20th century. Albion in the 20th Century features more than 225 photographs from the personal collection of Albion historian Frank Passic, which chronologically show the changes in the community. The book focuses on everyday workers (including union officials and factory workers) and ball teams-plus "famous" people such as wildlife artist Lynn Bogue Hunt and writer-photographer Gwen Dew. Notable events chronicled include the capture of the Purple Gang car, the 1994 NCAA Division III Albion College Britons national football championship, and the Cardboard Classic sled race.
Book Synopsis Language, Citizenship and Identity in Quebec by : Leigh Oakes
Download or read book Language, Citizenship and Identity in Quebec written by Leigh Oakes and published by Palgrave Macmillan. This book was released on 2007-02-15 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Awarded the 2008 Pierre Savard prize by the International Council for Canadian Studies! 'The Pierre Savard Awards are designed to recognize and promote each year outstanding scholarly monographs on a Canadian topic. The awards form part of a strategy that is aimed at promoting, especially throughout the Canadian academic community, works that have been written by members of the Canadian Studies international network. The awards are intended to designate exceptional books, which, being based on a Canadian topic, contribute to a better understanding of Canada.' Globalization is calling for new conceptualizations of belonging within culturally diverse communities. This book takes Quebec as a case study and examines how it fosters a sense of belonging through a common citizenship with French as the key element. As a nation without a state, Quebec is driven by two distinct imperatives: the need to affirm a robust Francophone identity within Anglophone North America, and the civic obligation to accommodate an increasingly diverse range of migrant groups, as well as demands for recognition by Aboriginal and Anglophone minorities.
