Download or read book Wallace written by Ronald Lee Weagley and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2011-04-28 with total page 410 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: WALLACE is a trilogy: WAR, WEST, and WEALTH. Each section portrays a modest and inconspicuous protagonist thrust into an immodest and consuming mix of war, frontier survival, and personal accomplishment that stretch values to the breaking point. Rev. Dr. Weagley served the United States Naval Reserve Military as a Chaplain, and actively in the U S. Army Security Agency as an enlisted man. He managed a chain finance office and later worked as a bookkeeper for a trucking company while obtaining multiple college degrees. He served as an ordained Evangelical Lutheran minister, and subsequently obtained his doctorate degree while working as deployed staff for a Synod Bishop. Fifty-three years of marriage blessed the union with four children who granted additional gifts of thirteen grandchildren and five great-grandchildren. In 2007, Dr. Weagley went to war with Guillain-Barre Syndrome, a paralyzing virus that required a shift in emphasis mode from stand-up preacher to sit-down author. Wallace is a fictional characterization that is rooted in truths strung together in reality conundrums. As if in search of justice, truth streams through time, unrestrained, unlimited, and unrestricted.

Book excerpt: Many immigrant communities along the U.S. border with Mexico are colonias, border settlements lacking infrastructure or safe housing. A Jumble of Needs examines the leadership of Mexican women immigrants in three colonias in New Mexico, documenting the role of NGOs in shaping women’s activism in these communities. Ethnographer Rebecca Dolhinow, who worked in the colonias, uncovers why such attempts to exercise political agency are so rarely successful.Central to the relationship between NGOs and women activists in colonias, Dolhinow argues, is the looming presence of the neoliberal political project. In particular, the discourses of caretaking that NGOs use to recruit women into leadership positions simultaneously naturalize and depoliticize the activist work that these women do in their communities. Dolhinow discovers the connections between colonias as isolated communities and colonia leaders as political subjects who unintentionally reinforce neoliberal policy. In the long run, she finds, any politicization that might take place is limited to the women leaders and seldom involves the community as a whole.Surprisingly, Dolhinow reveals, many NGOs promote neoliberal ideals, resulting in continued disenfranchisement, despite the women’s activism to better their lives, families, and communities.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Loved it from the very first page - Estella is a superbly well-drawn character and absolutely unforgettable.' Frances Quinn You know Miss Havisham. The world's most famous jilted bride. This is her daughter’s story. Raised in the darkness of Satis House where the clocks never tick, the beautiful Estella is bred to hate men and to keep her heart cold as the grave. She knows she doesn’t feel things quite like other people do but is this just the result of her strange upbringing? As she watches the brutal treatment of women around her, hatred hardens into a core of vengeance and when she finds herself married to the abusive Drummle, she is forced to make a deadly choice: Should she embrace the darkness within her and exact her revenge? A stunningly original, gripping Gothic read, perfect for fans of Stacey Halls, Madeline Miller and Jessie Burton. Readers are stunned by Estella's Revenge: ‘The genius concept behind this book is so irresistible, it makes the novel feel like magic...Charles Dickens's spirit would be definitely securing his copy now!’ Sophie Hannah ‘This gripping and clever novel takes Miss Havisham’s daughter and tells us her dark and compelling tale. Masterfully constructed, complex, immersive and delivered through Havelocke’s beautiful prose. Both heartbreaking and uplifting, this is an absolute must-read.' Rebecca Netley 'Thrillingly dark **and beautifully written, this **twisty Gothic tale will grip you to the last page and beyond.' Bella Ellis 'I truly cannot rave about this book enough!... Estella's Revenge is a dark, cunning story full of twists and turns and with plenty of heart.' Victoria Hawthorne ‘A darkly ingenious take on a classic character, Estella’s story had me gripped. I couldn’t turn the pages fast enough.’ Susi Holliday ‘Utterly beautiful.’ Louise Beech 'Meticulously researched and full of dark intrigue, I loved being transported into Estella's world. A page-turning delight.' Sarah Ward ‘Barbara Havelocke...makes the era come alive for the reader...A story with great depth...I look forward to reading more of Estella's story.' Valerie Keogh ‘A dream to read...it is atmospheric, dark, and reflects the original work beautifully...I believe that this book will in time be shelved next to Great Expectations as an essential complimentary read and I do not make that compliment lightly. Stunning.’ ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Reader Review ‘I absolutely loved this. A retelling of Charles Dickens’ Great Expectations? Please, yes, give it to me. This absolutely DELIVERED.'⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Reader Review ‘I loved this book. Satis House, London and Paris are brought to life in vivid detail and I was quickly entranced by Estella’s world...The female characters in this book shine.'⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Reader Review ‘I went into this blind. I just knew that the premise intrigued me. Well, it held up exceptionally...Estella...is a marvel and a masterpiece. You simply must read this book.’⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Reader Review ‘Wow! I must admit I went into it with a touch of trepidation, as Great Expectations is my favourite Dickens work and I didn't want it sullied in any way. Well, I needn't have worried...Splendidly complex...a riveting and satisfying read...I eagerly await her next book.’⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Reader Review

Download or read book Women and Change at the U.S.–Mexico Border written by Doreen J. Mattingly and published by University of Arizona Press. This book was released on 2022-06-21 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There’s no denying that the U.S.–Mexico border region has changed in the past twenty years. With the emergence of the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), the curtailment of welfare programs, and more aggressive efforts by the United States to seal the border against undocumented migrants, the prospect of seeking a livelihood—particularly for women—has become more tenuous in the twenty-first century. In the face of the ironic juxtaposition of free trade and limited mobility, this book takes a new look at women on both sides of the border to portray them as active participants in the changing structures of life, often engaging in political struggles. The contributions—including several chapters by Mexican as well as U.S. scholars—examine environmental and socioeconomic conditions on the border as they shape and are shaped by both daily life at the local level and the global economy. The contributors focus on issues related to migration, both short- and long-term; empowerment, especially reflecting shifts in women’s consciousness in the workplace; and political and social activism in border communities. The chapters consider a broad range of topics, such as the changing gender composition of the maquiladora work force over the past decade and border women’s non-governmental organizations and political activism. In most of the studies, both sides of the border are considered to provide insights into differences created by an international boundary and similarities produced by cross-border interactions. Together, these chapters show the border region to be a dynamic social, economic, cultural, and political context in which women face both obstacles and opportunities for change—and make clear the vital role that women play in shaping the border region and their own lives. This collection builds on Susan Tiano and Vicki Ruiz’s groundbreaking volume Women on the U.S.–Mexico Border by continuing to show the human face of changes wrought by manufacturing and militarization. By illustrating the current state of social science research on gender and women’s lives in the region, it offers fresh perspectives on the material reality of women’s daily lives in this culturally and historically rich region.

Download or read book Patriarch written by David M. Bickman and published by FriesenPress. This book was released on 2019-01-07 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shortly before his death, Abe Bickman (the "Patriarch") gave his son, David, his modest family archive. This archive comprised: an envelope, postmarked in 1948 and with a return address in Brazil, in which were contained several black & white photographs; several letters from relatives in the Ukraine, written in Yiddish in the 1920s; and a military passport issued by the Czarist Russian government in the very early 1900s. The author had the letters and passport translated and then reconnected with relatives in Brazil. He subsequently went to Brazil and met many of his cousins living there, some of whom helped him to locate, and eventually meet, cousins from Ukraine, Belarus, Russia, Israel and the United States. Bickman's research into his father's family history also involved gathering information from public archives in Canada, the United States and Ukraine, where he found his earliest direct paternal ancestor bearing the family surname (then "Bikman"). Bickman discovered that much of his father's family's history is a microcosm of the history of Eastern European Jewry from 1774 to the present and, in this process, learned much more about himself than he ever anticipated.

Download or read book Meetings with Mary written by Janice T. Connell and published by Ballantine Books. This book was released on 2015-03-18 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Through the centuries and across the world, the Virgin Mary has appeared to ordinary people of every race and culture, from scholars to illiterates, from the devout to the unbelieving, from young children to the dying. In this exquisite and inspiring volume, Janice T. Connell chronicles authenticated Marian apparitions and messages Mary has brought from God--as mother, comforter, Queen of Angels, and Prophet of the Apocalypse. Drawn from scripture, legend, and never-before-published eyewitness accounts, these are personal stories--the author's own, and her interviews with other visionaries--filled with beauty, wonder, and joy. Meetings with Mary ranges from Elijah's vision of Mary eight hundred years before her birth to the world-famous children of Medjugorje in Bosnia, whose encounters with her began in 1981 and continue daily. Here also are lesser-known, deeply touching encounters with the Mother, from an office worker in Holland to a Japanese nun, from a Jewish banker in Rome to an awestruck crowd of visionaries, few of them Christians or of any other faith, in Egypt. Meetings with Mary asks also: as the millennium draws near, shadowed by disasters, disease, and brutal civil warfare, are Mary's frequent appearances a signal to the faithful? Perhaps she is calling us all to join her now on a voyage toward the eternal shores of peace, joy, and abiding love. . . . "[Connell is] passionate about prayer and sharing her love of Jesus' mother. . . . She has a way of simplifying complex theology." --Rocky Mountain News

Download or read book Dickens's Great Expectations written by Jerome Meckier and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2021-10-21 with total page 409 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dickens scholar Jerome Meckier's acclaimed Hidden Rivalries in Victorian Fiction examined fierce literary competition between leading novelists who tried to establish their credentials as realists by rewriting Dickens's novels. Here, Meckier argues that in Great Expectations, Dickens not only updated David Copperfield but also rewrote novels by Lever, Thackeray, Collins, Shelley, and Charlotte and Emily Brontë. He periodically revised his competitors' themes, characters, and incidents to discredit their novels as unrealistic fairy tales imbued with Cinderella motifs. Dickens darkened his fairy tale perspective by replacing Cinderella with the story of Misnar's collapsible pavilion from The Tales of the Genii (a popular, pseudo-oriental collection). The Misnar analogue supplied a corrective for the era's Cinderella complex, a warning to both Haves and Have-nots, and a basis for Dickens's tragicomic view of the world.
