Book Synopsis East Brunswick through the Years by : Mark Nonestied and Ethan Reiss
Download or read book East Brunswick through the Years written by Mark Nonestied and Ethan Reiss and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2022-07-18 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: East Brunswick Township has a rich and diverse history dating back to the earliest period of settlement in the late 1600s. Incorporated in 1860, the town developed a farm-to-market economy that would define it for much of its existence. The early 20th century witnessed the arrival of immigrants from Eastern Europe, and the postwar years saw a continued melding of cultural groups within the community. The town saw unprecedented growth in the mid-1900s, and a rural landscape was transformed into suburbia. The prosperity of this period increased the town's population, infrastructure, businesses, and commerce. A journey through history using historic images from both public and private collections, East Brunswick through the Years looks at the evolution of the town and the people that called East Brunswick home. Mark Nonestied has lived in East Brunswick for most of his life. In 1987 at the age of 15, he pedaled across town on his bicycle to the East Brunswick Museum to learn about the town's history. He never left, having served for almost 35 years as a volunteer researching and writing about the town's history. Ethan Reiss has also lived in East Brunswick for most of his life and developed a passion for the township's history at a young age. Reiss has taken to that passion by researching and sharing photographs of the town's past on social media. He currently serves on the board of trustees for the East Brunswick Museum.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: EDGAR AWARD FINALIST • A private investigator revisits the case that has haunted her for decades and sets out on a deeply personal quest to sort truth from lies. CLUE AWARD FINALIST • “[A] haunting memoir, which also unfolds as a gripping true-crime narrative . . . This is a powerful, unsettling story, told with bracing honesty and skill.”—The Washington Post A New York Times Book Review Editors’ Choice • One of Marie Claire’s Ten Best True Crime Books of the Year Ellen McGarrahan was a young journalist for The Miami Herald in 1990 when she witnessed the botched execution of convicted killer Jesse Tafero: flames and smoke and three jolts of the electric chair. When evidence later emerged casting doubt on Tafero’s guilt, McGarrahan found herself haunted by his fiery death. Had she witnessed the execution of an innocent man? Decades later, McGarrahan, now a successful private investigator, is still gripped by the mystery and infamy of the Tafero case, and decides she must investigate it herself. Her quest will take her around the world and deep into the harrowing heart of obsession, and as questions of guilt and innocence become more complex, McGarrahan discovers she is not alone in her need for closure. For whenever a human life is taken by violence, the reckoning is long and difficult for all. A rare and vivid account of a private investigator’s real life and a classic true-crime tale, Two Truths and a Lie is ultimately a profound meditation on truth, grief, complicity, and justice.
Book Synopsis A Little History of the World by : E. H. Gombrich
Download or read book A Little History of the World written by E. H. Gombrich and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2014-10-01 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: E. H. Gombrich's Little History of the World, though written in 1935, has become one of the treasures of historical writing since its first publication in English in 2005. The Yale edition alone has now sold over half a million copies, and the book is available worldwide in almost thirty languages. Gombrich was of course the best-known art historian of his time, and his text suggests illustrations on every page. This illustrated edition of the Little History brings together the pellucid humanity of his narrative with the images that may well have been in his mind's eye as he wrote the book. The two hundred illustrations—most of them in full color—are not simple embellishments, though they are beautiful. They emerge from the text, enrich the author's intention, and deepen the pleasure of reading this remarkable work. For this edition the text is reset in a spacious format, flowing around illustrations that range from paintings to line drawings, emblems, motifs, and symbols. The book incorporates freshly drawn maps, a revised preface, and a new index. Blending high-grade design, fine paper, and classic binding, this is both a sumptuous gift book and an enhanced edition of a timeless account of human history.
