Download or read book Miss Willamina written by Carmen Uter and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2012-05 with total page 31 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author tells of cultural rituals which awakened within her a respect for her grandmother's sea island culture. This book introduces the sounds of a creole-idiom which is a Southern lingua-franca that is spoken on the coastlines of South Carolina, Georgia, and Florida. When colorful and expressive vernacular of the Geechee language is heard on the accompanying voice-tape, it immediately brings to life this creole-language which is nowadays threatened with extinction.
Download or read book The Geechee Lady written by Carmen Uter and published by Author House. This book was released on 2011-08 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Geechee Lady", subtitled, "Grandma and the Secret Castas ", is an adaptation from the poem, "Miss Willamina", written by the same author. Although written especially for "young readers", ages 10 - 17+, this is a book which can be enjoyed by any age-group. The true story, written in rhythmic pattern, tells of how a wizened older woman, born in 1885 on one of the Sea Islands off the coast of South Carolina, relates to a much younger female in the 1950s/1960s' setting of Harlem, New York. Divisive tactics, taught in previous generations to the black slaves by their white "masters", somehow seep their way into the lives of these two people, causing an awkward relationship between the old woman and the young girl. It is an awkwardness which stems from the most sensitive human-dynamic of that post-slavery era;...a dynamic manifested in myriad ways in regard to skin-tones, hair-types, facial features, and other physical traits...bringing about the creation of a very subtle, yet highly sensitive "caste-system" among people of color. This caste-system though well-known among all inhabitants of the colonies in the Americas, ...as well as among its European progenitors, ...is rarely discussed openly, even nowadays in 2010/2011, as it is still kept "hush-hush" as a topic to be discussed "secretively" behind closed doors. Therefore, an exciting,"must-see" section of this book, is Part 4-"Grandma and the Secret Castas", which shows copies of 16th and 17th century paintings which still hang today on the walls of the world's greatest museums. These great revolutionary works of art, in a genre called "La pintura de Casta", or "Casta Paintings", depict the lives of the people who represented the original population and who were contributors to the formation of this dominant, and highly-structured Latin-American "caste-system". This social system, called "Mestizaje", created by the royal monarchy of Spain and Portugal, ...(out of their desire to bring some semblance of order to the new colonies in the Americas), originally existed as an accepted form of concubinage in the Portuguese and Spanish colonies of the Americas, ... then it caught on, ...though not quite as successfully, in the British-owned, 13-original USA colonies, ...and then concurrently in all the English-speaking, Caribbean territorities including Jamaica, Trinidad-Tobago, the Bahamas, Antigua, Barbados, British Honduras, and Bermuda;... in French-speaking Louisiana (USA), and the French-speaking islands of Martinique, Guadalupe, and Haiti;... in the Spanish-speaking islands of Puerto Rico, Cuba, Dominican Republic, ...in Spanish Honduras, and on Roatan Island and Spanish-owned Belize (before it was annexed to the British Empire in the 1800s as British Honduras), ...in the German-speaking / Old-Dutch-speaking islands of Aruba, Bonaire, and Curacao. ...in the Portuguese-owned colonies of the Azores, Cape Verde, and Brazil, and also on all the smaller islands, such as Nevis, St. Croix, the French, St Martin and the Dutch, Maarten, Grenada, St. John, St. Thomas, St. Kitts, St. Lucia, St. Vincent, Monserrat, Tortola, and Dominica, etc.

Book excerpt: It's February 1942. War grips the world. Asian hate runs rampant, and New Orleans is a dangerous place for Chinese-English scientist Thomas Ling as he collides with self-proclaimed psychic Beatrix Patterson. She's a good liar with an excellent memory, which in truth is her only gift—well, that and conning the well-heeled out of their money and secrets. Hired by the US Army to use her connections to expose Nazi saboteurs and sympathizers, Beatrix recruits the reluctant Thomas. Together, they pit their skills against a government conspiracy, terrorist cells, kidnappings, and murderous plots. As Beatrix grapples with the truth of her own past, she must come to terms with her ruse. Exposing the Nazi war machine about to invade the country could cost Beatrix everything she's worked so hard to build. But the information she and Thomas uncover could change the outcome of the war. The question remains: will anyone believe a liar and a suspected traitor?

Book excerpt: This book is about life before the Temptations and the dreams of some very young high school music students who didn’t have many choices in life, but one choice was music. I was one of these students at Western – Olin High School (Renamed Jackson – Olin) in Birmingham, Alabama. In the early 1950’s. We were poor with little or no chance of fulfilling our dreams at that time in the south. But one music teacher, Mr. Amos F. Gordon told us we could achieve our dreams if we were willing to work hard and stay focused on our dreams. Eddie Kendrick and Paul Williams were among these students and so was I. This is my life growing up with so many very talented schoolmates who all had the dreams of one day making our dreams come true.

I've enjoyed all the Sunset Ridge books, and they keep getting better and better.” – Reviewer When my grandpa passes, he leaves behind one request for me: hand deliver a letter to a man who lives in Sunset Ridge, Alaska and get his cabin in return. Freedom. After years spent unsuccessfully trying to appease the older sister who raised me, I’m taking my escape and don’t plan to come back. I pack up my dog and my belongings and head north. Inheriting the cabin turns out not to be as simple as delivering a letter to an old friend. The letter requires me to complete an Alaskan bucket list with said old friend—who’s not old at all. He’s irritatingly handsome and trouble where my heart is concerned. Because he doesn’t believe in love. And even if he did, he’s not staying in Sunset Ridge. He’s day away from leaving. Which is why I should absolutely not fall for him. But it might be too late for that… Absomoosely in Love is a delightful book in the Sunset Ridge Sweet Romance series. If you like clean-and-wholesome stories, all the feels, and match-making moose, then you’ll adore Jacqueline Winters’s tug on the heartstrings.
