Book Synopsis Chasing the Frontier by : Larry J Hoefling
Download or read book Chasing the Frontier written by Larry J Hoefling and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2005 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The story of the Scots-Irish is one of the struggles and achievements of an American immigrant group that existed for only a short period, whose descendants continued to make their marks on the young country for generations. From the North of Ireland to the backwoods of the American frontier, the tale of the Scots-Irish includes a massive exodus to the New World, where they founded communities in the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia, and the Irish Tract of North Carolina during the Revolutionary War era. Containing nearly six thousand names of documented settlers of the primarily Scots-Irish settlements of Virginia and North Carolina, Chasing The Frontier includes materials from church records, military records, early wills and deeds, and newspapers of the time. For the frontier families, life was a daily test of endurance and hardship, but the Scots-Irish also found time for horseracing, gambling, and socializing, and the migration of this hardy race and the lure of the frontiers of Kentucky and Tennessee led to the founding of churches and state charters, and elections to some of the highest offices in the country. Chasing the Frontier is a snapshot of everyday life for the pioneering Scots-Irish in early America.

Their stories, ranging from being questioned by U.S. Special Forces while doing a solo tour of war torn Iraq, to showing a Costco ID card in order to tour a restricted launching place for space satellites in French Guiana, to entering Libya during Arab Spring and getting caught in the cross fire of cigarette smugglers, and many more, are guaranteed to fascinate and entertain every travel fan.
Download or read book Do Different written by Amit Sinha and published by Penguin Random House India Private Limited. This book was released on 2022-07-26 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Out of the box thinking, ruthless pragmatism and an innate ability to understand, define and then redefine the game of cricket are probably the hallmarks of Mahendra Singh Dhoni's cricket. From hitting countless sixes in his school ground in the sleepy town of Ranchi to finishing a run chase with another towering six in a World Cup final against Sri Lanka, Dhoni's journey is undoubtedly one of the most iconic of our times. Many have tried to decode his mystique, and yet, every account seems to have fallen frustratingly short of capturing the essence of the man. Instead, in Do Different, we offer diverse perspectives on the man: from a fellow wicketkeeper and competitor reminiscing on Dhoni's early years; to MSD's first agent with his perspective on the journey of brand Dhoni; to an international fast bowler who played with MSD since his first-class days and then starred for him in the Indian Premier League. From the matches and moments that defined Dhoni in the IPL, in international cricket and even off the field, to his life beyond the game of cricket, this is your ultimate MSD book.

Book Synopsis Ecocinema in the City by : Robin L. Murray
Download or read book Ecocinema in the City written by Robin L. Murray and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-11-15 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Ecocinema in the City, Murray and Heumann argue that urban ecocinema both reveals and critiques visions of urban environmentalism. The book emphasizes the increasingly transformative power of nature in urban settings, explored in both documentaries and fictional films such as Children Underground, White Dog, Hatari! and Lives Worth Living. The first two sections—"Evolutionary Myths Under the City" and "Urban Eco-trauma"—take more traditional ecocinema approaches and emphasize the city as a dangerous constructed space. The last two sections—"Urban Nature and Interdependence" and "The Sustainable City"—however, bring to life the vibrant relationships between human and nonhuman nature. Ecocinema in the City provides a space to explore these relationships, revealing how ecocinema shows that both human and nonhuman nature can interact sustainably and thrive.

Book Synopsis Children Living in Transition by : Cheryl Zlotnick
Download or read book Children Living in Transition written by Cheryl Zlotnick and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2014-01-21 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sharing the daily struggles of children and families residing in transitional situations (homelessness or because of risk of homelessness, being connected with the child welfare system, or being new immigrants in temporary housing), this text recommends strategies for delivering mental health and intensive case-management services that maintain family integrity and stability. Based on work undertaken at the Center for the Vulnerable Child in Oakland, California, which has provided mental health and intensive case management to children and families living in transition for more than two decades, this volume outlines culturally sensitive practices to engage families that feel disrespected by the assistance of helping professionals or betrayed by their forgotten promises. Chapters discuss the Center's staffers' attempt to trace the influence of power, privilege, and beliefs on their education and their approach to treatment. Many U.S. children living in impoverished transitional situations are of color and come from generations of poverty, and the professionals they encounter are white, middle-class, and college-educated. The Center's work to identify the influences or obstacles interfering with services for this target population is therefore critical to formulating more effective treatment, interaction, and care.

Book Synopsis The Man of Heaven and the Beautiful Ones of God by : Elizabeth Gunner
Download or read book The Man of Heaven and the Beautiful Ones of God written by Elizabeth Gunner and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2021-11-08 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The role of Africans in the growth and process of Christianity in South Africa in the late nineteenth and early twentieth century. In particular the book provides an insight into the role of writing and literacy in the church founded by the South African prophet, Isaiah Shembe, in 1910. The book provides a substantial, contextualising introduction which includes discussion of the church’s history and its position in contemporary South Africa, and weaves in discussion of the topics of literacy and modernity. The book then moves to the three documents, presented in their language of composition, Zulu and in an English translation. The three ‘books’, each from Shembe’s Nazareth Baptist Church, provide the reader with a fascinating insight into the growth and organisation of one of southern Africa’s most influential African Churches, and into the use and interpretation of the Bible by the church’s founder, Isaiah Shembe, and by church members. Central to the writings is the complex presence of Shembe, present both through his own words in the first book and, in the second book, through the memory of Meshack Hadebe, a member of the church in the 1920’s and 1930’s. The extracts in the third book provide a glimpse of the church’s hymnal and the unique religious poetry of the hymns, authored by Shembe.
Book Synopsis The Best of Bevan by : Michael Bevan
Download or read book The Best of Bevan written by Michael Bevan and published by Allen & Unwin. This book was released on 2002-12-01 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Michael Bevan has been responsible for the some of the most remarkable and exciting performances in the history of one-day cricket. His uncanny knack to work the ball into the narrowest gaps, his quick and aggressive running, and his ability to stay calm and focused in a crisis have seen him dubbed the world's finest limited-overs batsman. In The Best of Bevan, Michael writes about the 30 matches he considers the most memorable of his career. Not all are one-day games, a few even ended in defeat, but each says something about the way he thinks the game should be played, how he approaches the art of batting and how he deals with the highs and lows of playing international cricket. For much of his career, Michael has been content to let his performances speak for him. Now, in this thought-provoking, wide-ranging book, he answers his critics, reveals what motivates him to succeed at the highest level and explains why he and his famous teammates have enjoyed so much success in recent times.
