Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An account of the life and work of a once-famous self-taught American artist of the 1940s, and a study of how artists go missing from public memory. The exhibition “Morris Hirshfield Rediscovered” at the American Folk Art Museum in New York City, curated by the author and developed as an extension of the book, is on view from September 22, 2022 to January 27, 2023. A garment worker and slipper manufacturer with no training in art, Morris Hirshfield was never expected to make history. Against all odds, his wildly stylized paintings of female figures, often nude, animals, and landscapes became internationally known in the 1940s. Admired by Pablo Picasso, Piet Mondrian, and the French surrealists, his peak moment of visibility occurred in 1943, when the Museum of Modern Art mounted a one-man show of his work. The exhibition was widely reviewed—though mostly reviled—by the press, who jeeringly crowned Hirshfield “Master of the Two Left Feet” for his tendency to display the female body in that unorthodox fashion. After the artist’s death in 1946, his work was largely forgotten, but in Master of the Two Left Feet, art historian Richard Meyer rediscovers Hirshfield for twenty-first-century audiences, offering full-color reproductions that capture the vibrant imagination and sheer visual pleasure of Hirshfield’s paintings. The book also features a catalog of works compiled by curator Susan Davidson which provides the most comprehensive documentation of the artist’s work ever assembled. Ten years in the making, Master of the Two Left Feet presents Hirshfield’s unlikely career as a painter not only as a missing episode in the history of twentieth-century art but as a case study of the ways in which artists go missing from historical knowledge and public memory. By looking closely at Hirshfield and his milieu in 1940s Brooklyn, Meyer demonstrates how much we have yet to learn, and to see, of the visual past.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After World War I, artists without formal training “crashed the gates” of major museums in the United States, diversifying the art world across lines of race, ethnicity, class, ability, and gender. At the center of this fundamental reevaluation of who could be an artist in America were John Kane, Horace Pippin, and Anna Mary Robertson “Grandma” Moses. The stories of these three artists not only intertwine with the major critical debates of their period but also prefigure the call for inclusion in representations of American art today. In Gatecrashers, Katherine Jentleson offers a valuable corrective to the history of twentieth-century art by expanding narratives of interwar American modernism and providing an origin story for contemporary fascination with self-taught artists.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Eminent art historian Charles C. Eldredge brings together top scholars to celebrate forgotten artists and create a more inclusive history of American art. Why do some artists become canonical, while others, equally respected in their time, fall into obscurity? This question is central to The Unforgettables, a vibrant collection of essays by leading experts on American art. Each contributor presents a brief for an artist deserving of new or renewed attention, including artists from the colonial era to recent years working in a wide variety of mediums. Histories of American art have traditionally highlighted the work of a familiar roster of artists, largely white and male. The achievements of their peers, notably women and artists of color, have gone uncelebrated. The essays in this volume provide a new and richer understanding of American art, expanding the canon to include many worthy talents. A number of these artists were acclaimed in their day; others, having missed that acclaim, may achieve it now. With contributions from major scholars and museum professionals, The Unforgettables rescues and revises reputations as it enhances and enriches the history of American art.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A moving and dramatic World War I saga of family, love and the British royal family for readers of Daisy Styles and Maisie Thomas. Norfolk, 1919 The war is over, but the effects of it are ever-present in the village of Wolferton. At just two miles from Sandringham House, the private residence of British monarchs, the people of Wolferton have a special connection to the royals - particularly the family of the royal station master, Harry Saward. But their privileged position and access to the royal family do not lessen the devastating impact of war on the Saward girls. Maria's fiancé, Eddie, is suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder, Ada's husband, Alfie, has lost his job, and his purpose in life, Jessie is praying for the safe return of her beau, Jack, and Beatrice is hard at work as a nurse in the war hospital and is faced with a shocking revelation from her sweetheart. With many men from the Sandringham Company still missing in Gallipoli, the village is also suffering. When Kitty Willow, the wife of one of the missing men, and her six young children lose their home on the royal estate, the Saward family rally around to help. As they are forced into the workhouse and Kitty is separated from her children, life looks bleak. But when a kind benefactor takes a shine to Kitty her fortunes may have turned around. Could this be the new start in life that she and her children so desperately need? Praise for Ellee Seymour 'A heartwarming historical novel' Rosie Goodwin 'A gripping historical saga' Daisy Styles

Book excerpt: Can one night with a stranger lead to a lifetime of love? When Regency miss Dulcie Tennant founds “The Charlotte Society” with her two dearest friends to help soldiers returning from the war, she already has her very own hero in mind. With the help of Caroline and Phoebe, she begins her search for the officer her late brother has chosen for her to wed. Major Lord Raphael Blackburn sits in a cell on the Isle of Wight, awaiting punishment for his crimes. The roguish earl, who has earned the nickname ‘Raging Rafe’ on the battlefield, never expects to be rescued by a determined angel with big, brown eyes, flowing auburn curls, and lips that are just begging to be kissed. Remembering the oath he swore to his dying friend, Rafe has no choice but to make Dulcie his bride. But he must still face his fate at dawn, leaving them with only one night to fulfill their vows as husband and wife. To honor her brother’s wishes, Dulcie was willing to surrender herself to a loveless marriage. But one night in Rafe’s arms tempts her to surrender not just her body but her heart… Book 3 of the Regency series The Charlotte Society, which includes: Lord Temptation (Book 1) Lord Dare (Book 2) Lord Rogue (Book 3) “Rebecca Hagan Lee warms my heart and touches my soul.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Life expectancy worldwide increased by thirty years in the twentieth century. Even so, many soon-to-be retirees don't expect to live decades beyond eighty. They typically haven't thought much about what their lives will be like after retirement, except to be glad to be done with rising at the break of dawn, punching time clocks, and fighting crowds on lanes or trains. But after two or three years of retirement, the days become dull, and their bodies become listless. In contrast, other retirees engaged with the world are seeking out fulfilling projects and programs. These people are looking for things to do-ways to use their newfound years to fulfill old dreams. Once they did, they did not describe life as a half full (or half empty) bucket; they needed two buckets to hold the summation of their lives! These are the people who inspired the writing of Dance until the Music Stops. With personal experiences, research, anecdotes, insights, and humor, author Esther C. Gropper developed this guide to help seniors enjoy their retirement and learn the "what's what" of extended life.

Book excerpt: The Urban Yogi An Autobiography and Self-Help Book in Ayurveda, Extensive Food List, and Formula for Self-Realization By: Noel Carroll Gilbert I am writing this book because I have been knocking on God’s door a lot and I believe he is about ready to open it for me… I have been slipping in and out of realization and thought I should at least record it for those people who need the breadcrumbs to follow and who need inspirational stories to help them move further down their spiritual path… The real reason I am writing this book is that God told me to… We will get into this! …His divine orchestration… His will, verses your will… How to recognize his will… Yes! …The reason I am writing this book is because: what is true in God anywhere, is true in God everywhere… You cannot go there by hoarding the knowledge to the path… What goes in must come out… It is a law of nature, like gravity… Or if you do not use it, you lose it… or, on the other hand, if you abuse it, you lose it. May God’s Love for you, always be upper most on your mind and heart. With all my love, Namasta.

Book excerpt: What’s a well-meaning English miss to do when a surly Scottish Highlander refuses her charity? Alasdair Sinclair, the Earl of Sinclair and Montleith, has always been a man bold enough to accept any dare. But after losing his Highland regiment to the horrors of war, he builds an impenetrable fortress around his heart. He never expects to find that heart under siege by a determined English lady who storms the Returning Soldiers’ Hospital looking for a soldier to adopt. Phoebe Osborne founded “The Charlotte Society” with her two best friends in the hope of helping some poor soldier return to the life he left behind. Instead, she finds herself engaged in a battle of wits and wills with an infuriating Highlander who scorns her charity as pity. Despite his resistance to her charms, Alasdair’s thick, black curls, piercing green eyes, and husky burr tempts her to surrender her kisses—and her heart. Beneath Phoebe’s cool blonde exterior, Alasdair discovers a passionate warmth that threatens to melt his every defense and challenges his warrior’s heart to accept the most dangerous dare of all—falling in love… Book 2 of the Regency series The Charlotte Society, which includes: Lord Temptation (Book 1) Lord Dare (Book 2) Lord Rogue (Book 3) “Tender, enthralling romance straight from the heart!” — Eloisa James, New York Times bestselling author “Rebecca Hagan Lee taps into every woman’s fantasy!” — Christina Dodd, New York Times bestseller “Rebecca Hagan Lee warms my heart and touches my soul.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A thrilling tale of magic and warfare in ancient Ireland. April 1014. Dubliner Elva watches helplessly as her sister comes under the control of an evil queen. Dara marches towards the city as part of Brian Boru's army, while Skari sails from the Orkneys to fight with King Sitric of Dublin. As the armies come ever closer to each other, no one knows what will happen when they meet to fight what has been called the last battle. Nor do the children realise that their fates are linked in ways they could never have imagined, ways which will test all their courage and loyalty.
