Download or read book Lost Fox Cities written by Scott Wittman and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2019-04-01 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The lumber kings and paper barons of the Fox River Valley transformed a wilderness of vast, rich timberlands and raging river waters into empires of pine, paper and power. In Oshkosh, lumber dynasties such as Paine and Morgan helped rebuild a nation ravaged by fire and war. Four young Neenah entrepreneurs with no experience in papermaking formed Kimberly-Clark, one of the largest paper manufacturers in the world. H.J. Rogers of Appleton watched his home light up the night after he wired it with Edison's electric lightbulbs, the first in the world to do so utilizing hydroelectricity. These men ushered in an era of opulence shining with steamboat excursions along the river, palatial mansions in plush neighborhoods and lavish hotels and movie houses. Much of this bygone age now exists only in photographs, written accounts or memories. Local photographer and historian Scott Wittman recovers this vanishing history.

Book Synopsis Wicked Fox Cities by : Frank Anderson
Download or read book Wicked Fox Cities written by Frank Anderson and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2010-05-13 with total page 101 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Visit the wicked Fox Cities, full of place names like La Grand Butte des Morts ("the Big Hill of the Dead") and Winneconne ("the Place of Skulls") that date from an era when "settlement" was frequently synonymous with "slaughter." Even after the firm establishment of modern civilization, there remained an uneasy truce between lined pockets and bared knuckles that was often only brokered by heavy drinking. Stumble across the frozen Fox River and barge into local watering holes, where the only pauses in the revelry are discussions about desecrating Joe McCarthy's grave. Points of interest include the Oshkosh rat-betting scene, the Appleton "Union Street Resorts" and the Neenah tavern, where a world-champion boxer hid from the doctor who had bought his bones.

Book excerpt: Eleven-year-old Clay must find a home on the streets of New York City in this award-winning, heartbreakingly honest novel. He was eleven years old, and he had never felt so alone in his life. Clay Garrity lived a normal life until his father lost his job and abandoned the family. Now his pregnant mother has deserted him too, leaving Clay alone in a welfare hotel with a jar of peanut butter and half a loaf of bread. Fearing being placed in foster care, Clay runs away. Alone in the city, Clay wanders down streets with boarded-up buildings and through dark alleys, until he comes to a small triangular park that looks like an island in a stream. In the light of a street lamp, he sees cardboard boxes, blankets, bundles—and people. Some are lying on benches, others inside boxes. Two of the men, Calvin and Buddy, offer to share their shelter, and Clay is grateful to have a place to stay during the bitter November cold. Before long, Calvin, Buddy, and Clay form a family amid the threatening dangers and despair of the streets. Clay knows that leaving the streets and going into foster care means that he may never see his parents again. But if he stays, he may not survive at all. An ALA Best Book for Young Adults, this acclaimed novel offers an intensely moving and candid look at the all-too-real lives of homeless teens.

Download or read book The Lost Booklets of Emmett Fox written by Emmet Fox and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2014-02 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Emmet Fox was born in Ireland in 1886. After receiving his education in England, he moved to the United States in the early 1930's, where he began lecturing on spirituality in New York City. He quickly became one of the most influential leaders of the New Thought Movement and was a major inspiration for Bill W. and Dr. Bob, the co-founders of Alcoholics Anonymous. Fox presented his “essays” at the Hippodrome Theater, the Manhattan Opera House, Carnegie Hall, and the Astor Hotel. These “meetings” were regularly attended by several thousand people, including Bill W., his wife Lois, and many of New York City's AA members.These “essays” became the basis for various books and pamphlets. Dr. Bob owned, read and recommended Fox's writings to those he worked with in the Midwest.Much of Emmet Fox's philosophy resonates throughout the “Big Book.” For example:Devote at least a quarter of an hour a day to prayer and meditation. Train yourself to give the first thought on wakening to God.Resolutely turn your back on the past, good or bad, and live only in the present.Forgive everybody without exception, no matter what they may have done, and . . . then forgive YOURSELF whole-heartedly.Endeavor to make your life of as much service to others as possible.Here, for the first time, is a compilation of many of the “essays” and booklets Emmet Fox wrote during the 1930's. You can read for yourself the words of a man who had a profound influence on Bill, Bob and the AA old-timers.Wally P. Wally P. is an A.A. archivist / historian and the author of Back to Basics and How to Listen to God.DR. Fox's work continues to make a difference in the lives of people in all faiths.We are pleased to provide the lost pamphlets so that many more people can benefit from his teachings.

Book Synopsis Five Years Ahead of My Time by : Seth Bovey
Download or read book Five Years Ahead of My Time written by Seth Bovey and published by Reaktion Books. This book was released on 2019-06-10 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Five Years Ahead of My Time: Garage Rock from the 1950s to the Present tells of a musical phenomenon whose continuing influence on global popular culture is immeasurable. The story begins in 1950s America, when classic rock ’n’ roll was reaching middle age, and teenaged musicians kept its primal rawness going with rough-hewn instrumentals, practicing guitar riffs in their parents’ garages. In the mid-1960s came the Beatles and the British Invasion, and soon every neighborhood had its own garage band. Groups like the Sonics and 13th Floor Elevators burnt brightly but briefly, only to be rediscovered by a new generation of connoisseurs in the 1970s. Numerous compilation albums followed, spearheaded by Lenny Kaye’s iconic Nuggets, which resulted in garage rock’s rebirth during the 1980s and ’90s. Be it the White Stripes or the Black Keys, bands have consistently found inspiration in the simplicity and energy of garage rock. It is a revitalizing force, looking back to the past to forge the future of rock ’n’ roll. And this, for the first time, is its story.
