Download or read book Hoover written by Kenneth Whyte and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2018-11-06 with total page 770 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "An exemplary biography—exhaustively researched, fair-minded and easy to read. It can nestle on the same shelf as David McCullough’s Truman, a high compliment indeed." —The Wall Street Journal The definitive biography of Herbert Hoover, one of the most remarkable Americans of the twentieth century—a wholly original account that will forever change the way Americans understand the man, his presidency, his battle against the Great Depression, and their own history. An impoverished orphan who built a fortune. A great humanitarian. A president elected in a landslide and then resoundingly defeated four years later. Arguably the father of both New Deal liberalism and modern conservatism, Herbert Hoover lived one of the most extraordinary American lives of the twentieth century. Yet however astonishing, his accomplishments are often eclipsed by the perception that Hoover was inept and heartless in the face of the Great Depression. Now, Kenneth Whyte vividly recreates Hoover’s rich and dramatic life in all its complex glory. He follows Hoover through his Iowa boyhood, his cutthroat business career, his brilliant rescue of millions of lives during World War I and the 1927 Mississippi floods, his misconstrued presidency, his defeat at the hands of a ruthless Franklin Roosevelt, his devastating years in the political wilderness, his return to grace as Truman's emissary to help European refugees after World War II, and his final vindication in the days of Kennedy's "New Frontier." Ultimately, Whyte brings to light Hoover’s complexities and contradictions—his modesty and ambition, his ruthlessness and extreme generosity—as well as his profound political legacy. Hoover: An Extraordinary Life in Extraordinary Times is the epic, poignant story of the deprived boy who, through force of will, made himself the most accomplished figure in the land, and who experienced a range of achievements and failures unmatched by any American of his, or perhaps any, era. Here, for the first time, is the definitive biography that fully captures the colossal scale of Hoover’s momentous life and volatile times.

Book Synopsis The Sun Orbits My Dog by : J.B. Fitzgerald
Download or read book The Sun Orbits My Dog written by J.B. Fitzgerald and published by Bluestocking Bay Publishing. This book was released on 2022-07-31 with total page 402 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Prepare to laugh, cry, and smile with satisfaction as you follow Fitzgerald’s heartwarming stories. Hilarious, playful, and outright adorable…the book has an instantly uplifting effect that keeps you floating every time you remember it.” — Foluso Falaye, Readers' Favorite Five-Star Review Every dog deserves the happily ever after of a fairy-tale life, preferably without first being turned into a footman for a cucurbit carriage. After all, it’s no picnic getting post-midnight pumpkin slime out of those harder-to-reach furry places. (Not to suggest that pre-midnight slime is magically self-cleansing, at least not without the benefit of a wand-wielding godmother.) Yet, even servant to a fresh-off-the-vine conveyance beats the fate of many dogs. All too often, wonderful animals end up at the mercy of the evil queens, the wicked stepmothers, the big bad wolves, and other nefarious villains. The Sun Orbits My Dog is the lively narrative of three such animals—dogs who, by no fault of their own, had only experienced the cruel beginnings inflicted upon fairy tale protagonists. Maybe they’d dreamed of better days. Maybe they’d forgotten how to dream. Ultimately, however, they discovered true love—each adopted by a family that was neither evil nor wicked, neither bad nor nefarious, but decidedly eccentric and doggedly devoted. For Jake, Sadie, and Georgiana, this is where their waggly-tailed tales begin. Told in a style that is, at once, self-deprecating and humorous, poignant and relatable, former journalist J. B. Fitzgerald regales readers with twenty years of dog-parenting anecdotes: the laughter and excitement, the hardships and fears, and, of course, an array of comically undignified mishaps as she nurtures three very different souls through their unique challenges and watches them grow out of their sorrow and into infinitely happy and loving companions. This illustrated edition features more than 130 artistically displayed photographs. “...J.B. Fitzgerald’s warmth and affection for these companions can be felt in every sentence of this book...if ever there was a literary advocate for adopting a dog from your local shelter, it is The Sun Orbits My Dog...” — K.C. Finn, Readers' Favorite Five-Star Review

Book excerpt: Pulp History brings to life extraordinary feats of bravery, violence, and redemption that history has forgotten. These stories are so dramatic and thrilling they have to be true. In DEVIL DOG, the most decorated Marine in history fights for America across the globe—and returns home to set his country straight. Smedley Butler took a Chinese bullet to the chest at age eighteen, but that did not stop him from running down rebels in Nicaragua and Haiti, or from saving the lives of his men in France. But when he learned that America was trading the blood of Marines to make Wall Street fat cats even fatter, Butler went on a crusade. He threw the gangsters out of Philadelphia, faced down Herbert Hoover to help veterans, and blew the lid off a plot to overthrow FDR.

Book Synopsis Paper of Wreckage by : Susan Mulcahy
Download or read book Paper of Wreckage written by Susan Mulcahy and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2024-10-08 with total page 592 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A jaw-dropping and unputdownable oral history of the New York Post and the legendary tabloid’s cultural impact from the 1970s to today as recounted by the men and women who witnessed it firsthand. By the 1970s, the country’s oldest continuously published newspaper had fallen on hard times, just like its nearly bankrupt hometown. When the New York Post was sold to a largely unknown Australian named Rupert Murdoch in 1976, staffers hoped it would be the start of a new golden age for the paper. Now, after the nearly fifty years Murdoch has owned the tabloid, American culture reflects what Murdoch first started in the 1970s: a celebrity-focused, noisy, one-sided media empire that reached its zenith with Fox News. Drawing on extensive interviews with key players and in-depth research, this eye-opening, wildly entertaining oral history shows us how we got to this point. It’s a rollicking tale full of bad behavior, inflated egos, and a corporate culture that rewarded skirting the rules and breaking norms. But working there was never boring and now, you can discover the entire remarkable true story of America’s favorite tabloid newspaper.

Download or read book Word Magic written by Elmer Wheeler and published by Pickle Partners Publishing. This book was released on 2016-10-27 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: About ten years ago, a newspaper man developed an idea for increasing sales through a more effective use of words. Now, Elmer Wheeler, its originator, has put into this new book the fundamental principles responsible for his success and has adapted them to help you meet those many personal situations confronting you at home, in the office, and in society. No matter who you are, no matter what your position in life is, you depend upon words for your success and happiness. The right words can win you a job, a wife, or a promotion. The wrong words can lose friends for you in social life, block your progress in business, or make you miss your big chance. Adopting a keen, homely, back-to-the-woods philosophy, Mr. Wheeler has taken an ordinarily serious subject and dramatized it so that anyone can put it to immediate and practical use.
Download or read book Funnymen written by Ted Heller and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2002-04-03 with total page 417 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: SIGMUND "ZIGGY" BLISSMAN isn't the best-looking, sanest boy in the world. Far, far from it. But this misfit child of a failed husband-and-wife vaudeville team has one (and only one) thing going for him: He can crack people up merely by batting his eyelashes. And Vittorio "Vic" Fontana, the son of a fisherman, is a fraud. Barely able to carry a tune or even stay awake while attempting to, the indolent baritone (if that's what he is) has one thing going for him: Women love to look at him. On their own, they're failures. But on one summer night in the Catskills, they step onstage and together become the funniest men -- and the hottest act -- in America. Funnymen is the wildly inventive story of Fountain and Bliss, the comedy duo that delighted America in the 1940s and '50s. Conceived as a fictional oral biography and filled with more than seventy memorable characters, Funnymen details the extraordinary careers of two men whose professional success is never matched in their personal lives. The two men fight constantly with their managers, their wives, their children, their mistresses, and those responsible for their success: each other. The stories recounted about Vic and Ziggy -- and the truths Heller reveals about human ambition, egotism, and friendship -- make Funnymen a wild ride of a novel that is also a rare and imaginative masterpiece of storytelling.
Book Synopsis Modern Food, Moral Food by : Helen Zoe Veit
Download or read book Modern Food, Moral Food written by Helen Zoe Veit and published by UNC Press Books. This book was released on 2013 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: American eating changed dramatically in the early twentieth century. As food production became more industrialized, nutritionists, home economists, and so-called racial scientists were all pointing Americans toward a newly scientific approach to diet. Food faddists were rewriting the most basic rules surrounding eating, while reformers were working to reshape the diets of immigrants and the poor. And by the time of World War I, the country's first international aid program was bringing moral advice about food conservation into kitchens around the country. In Modern Food, Moral Food, Helen Zoe Veit argues that the twentieth-century food revolution was fueled by a powerful conviction that Americans had a moral obligation to use self-discipline and reason, rather than taste and tradition, in choosing what to eat.
