Book excerpt: There’s a killer on the road…The FBI is squirming like a toad. Dakota Jalen, a brash, young, FBI agent with a crushing cross to bear is remaining calm however. Though not one other agent within the entire bureau has broken “CHARLIE USA’s” code, Dakota knows she can do it. From the oppressive heat of the Deep South up into the cool currents of the Northeast, Dakota tails CHARLIE USA state by state until she comes face to face with an un-escapable paradox of endemic proportions. It seems that some people in Dakota’s life, and worse, perhaps even herself, have more in common with the monster CHARLIE USA than they’d like to admit.

Book Synopsis Charlie Chaplin’s Little Tramp in America, 1947–77 by : Lisa Stein Haven
Download or read book Charlie Chaplin’s Little Tramp in America, 1947–77 written by Lisa Stein Haven and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-11-09 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on the re-invigoration of Charlie Chaplin’s Little Tramp persona in America from the point at which Chaplin reached the acme of his disfavor in the States, promoted by the media, through his departure from America forever in 1952, and ending with his death in Switzerland in 1977. By considering factions of America as diverse as 8mm film collectors, Beat poets and writers and readers of Chaplin biographies, this cultural study determines conclusively that Chaplin’s Little Tramp never died, but in fact experienced a resurgence, which began slowly even before 1950 and was wholly in effect by 1965 and then confirmed by 1972, the year in which Chaplin returned to the United States for the final time, to receive accolades in both New York and Los Angeles, where he received an Oscar for a lifetime of achievement in film.

Book Synopsis Travels with Charley in Search of America by : John Steinbeck
Download or read book Travels with Charley in Search of America written by John Steinbeck and published by Penguin. This book was released on 1997-04-01 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An intimate journey across America, as told by one of its most beloved writers A Penguin Classic In September 1960, John Steinbeck embarked on a journey across America. He felt that he might have lost touch with the country, with its speech, the smell of its grass and trees, its color and quality of light, the pulse of its people. To reassure himself, he set out on a voyage of rediscovery of the American identity, accompanied by a distinguished French poodle named Charley; and riding in a three-quarter-ton pickup truck named Rocinante. His course took him through almost forty states: northward from Long Island to Maine; through the Midwest to Chicago; onward by way of Minnesota, North Dakota, Montana (with which he fell in love), and Idaho to Seattle, south to San Francisco and his birthplace, Salinas; eastward through the Mojave, New Mexico, Arizona, to the vast hospitality of Texas, to New Orleans and a shocking drama of desegregation; finally, on the last leg, through Alabama, Virginia, Pennsylvania, and New Jersey to New York. Travels with Charley in Search of America is an intimate look at one of America's most beloved writers in the later years of his life—a self-portrait of a man who never wrote an explicit autobiography. Written during a time of upheaval and racial tension in the South—which Steinbeck witnessed firsthand—Travels with Charley is a stunning evocation of America on the eve of a tumultuous decade. This Penguin Classics edition includes an introduction by Jay Parini. For more than seventy years, Penguin has been the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world. With more than 1,700 titles, Penguin Classics represents a global bookshelf of the best works throughout history and across genres and disciplines.

Book Synopsis Sociopolitical Perspectives on Language Policy and Planning in the USA by : Thom Huebner
Download or read book Sociopolitical Perspectives on Language Policy and Planning in the USA written by Thom Huebner and published by John Benjamins Publishing. This book was released on 1999-11-15 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is the result of a colloquium on socio-political dimensions of language policy and language planning held at the 1997 American Association of Applied Linguistics (AAAL) Conference. The focus is on language planning and policy in the USA, but the issues raised will be applicable to other parts of the world as well. Three broad issues are addressed: general aspects, case studies dealing with certain languages or ethnic groups, and language planning in practice. The first, general, part, provides a historical analysis of language planning and language policy in the US, and proceeds to deal with maintenance and loss of indigenous languages, and the constraints imposed by current policies and how these constraints can be effectively dealt with. The second part contains a number of case studies. It discusses aspects of planning policies pertaining to pidgin languages, gestural languages used by the deaf (ASL) and constraints in foreign language education; this part also raises issues relating to ethnic groups, concentrating on the position of Mexicans and Puerto Ricans in the US. In the third part some practical issues are raised by looking into the role of language and culture in teaching reading, foreign language policy in higher education, Hawaiian language regenisis, and gender neutralization in American English. The book is a tribute to Charlene Junko Sato, a sociolinguist and a language activist. She died in 1996 and will be remembered for her work not only in linguistics, but also for her dedication in advancing Hawaiian Pidgin, influencing language policy through various publications and court-room appearances.
Book Synopsis The Summer of Charlie Ponzi by : Noel Hynd
Download or read book The Summer of Charlie Ponzi written by Noel Hynd and published by . This book was released on 2021-02-12 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One sweltering afternoon late in June 1919, a thirty-seven-year-old clerk named Charles Ponzi, who was employed by a Boston, Massachusetts brokerage house, opened an envelope from Spain and made a startling discovery. The envelope contained a postal reply coupon, something Ponzi had never heard of. The coupon, which the writer in Spain had enclosed to cover the postal reply from the brokerage house, had been purchased in Madrid for the equivalent of one cent in U.S. currency. Yet it was redeemable at any post office or bank in the United States for five cents.Ponzi pursed his lips and looked off into space. Here, he decided, was something worthy of serious investigation. So began a unique story in the history of American crime, and so begins 'The Summer of Charlie Ponzi, ' the newest novel by espionage and crime author Noel Hynd. 'The Summer of Charlie Ponzi' is based on the true story of the involvement and reporting of his father, Alan Hynd, in the infamous Ponzi case in 1919 and 1920.Boston in the years after World War One was a bustling, booming metropolis, the fifth-largest city in the United States. The Roaring Twenties were underway. Immigrants from all over the world poured into Prohibition-era Boston. So did young, first-generation American men and women anxious to seek their fortune. America, and Boston in particular, was a wide-open place, filled with crime, jazz, flappers, a new easy morality, and speakeasies. There were two great baseball clubs - the Braves and the Red Sox - and six daily newspapers.Newspapers were everywhere. There were newsstands at North Station, in front of Symphony Hall, in front of Filene's, and in the streets of Charlestown, Southie and Dorchester. On the rare blocks with no newsstand, the hoarse, aggressive chant of newsboys filled the air.The Boston Post stood out among the daily papers. It was the fourth-leading morning newspaper in the country in circulation. There were many reasons The Post stood out, but one was city editor Eddie Dunn, the best newspaperman in Boston during the hard-drinking, two-fisted era of the 1920s. Eddie Dunn understood news, how to find it, get it, and sell it.By the end of 1919, Charlie Ponzi had hatched out his scheme: he would build his fortune on postal reply coupons and beat the banks in the money lending game. While banks were paying five percent per year, Ponzi promised investors fifty percent interest in forty-five days. He soon had people lining up at his office on School Street, practically throwing money at him. By April of 1920, Charlie Ponzi was taking in a $250,000 every day in cash as his pyramid scheme swept the city.The offices of The Boston Post were also on School Street. Inevitably, The Post and Ponzi took notice and measure of each other. In the summer of 1920, their worlds collided. When the Ponzi swindle became the biggest local story of the year, even bigger than Sacco and Vanzetti, Eddie Dunn threw every spare reporter onto the story. By this time, Alan Hynd, still in his late teens, had cadged a job as a street reporter for The Post. He had only a few weeks of experience, but Dunn assigned him to his team of top reporters covering the case.'The Summer of Charlie Ponzi' is the story of a young man covering the most brazen financial crime of the twentieth century. This hard-edged Jazz-Age tale is full of fascinating women and men drawn from the newsrooms, tenements, speakeasies, high social circles, financial boardrooms, streets, and sidewalks of Boston of the 1920s. Told in the young reporter's sly acerbic voice, the tale is at times brash and hilarious, at times heartbreaking, frequently astonishing, and always riveting.*'The Summer of Charlie Ponzi' joins 'Ashes from a Burning Corpse' in the series "An American True Crime Reporter in the 20th Century." The series recounts the major cases of the American reporter who would later become one of the best-known true crime writers of his era

In post-civil war Mississippi, Doc Whitmore finds an infant in an old hut. The Harpers, who live nearby, take him in and give him a name. Young Charlie is mentored over the years by Doc and an Indian, whom he calls Oxytak. Through their kindly wisdom he learns that a man is more than merely the name he is given or the blood in his veins; he is, above all, the mark he makes. Charlie's efforts to carve out his place in the world begin with overcoming the persecution against him because of his mixed race. Ultimately, they will take him through high adventure, risk and danger, including brutal assaults by Boxer terrorists in China and a perilous mine rescue in Oklahoma. But he finds his greatest challenge of all to be the beautiful Jessie Harper. Charlie's Mark is a story of courage and sacrifice and the power of a woman's love in keeping alive a man's hope and determination. Readers will appreciate Charlie's charm, good humor, and his enthusiasm for life.
