Book Synopsis Ella Black by : Lost Century of Sports Collection
Download or read book Ella Black written by Lost Century of Sports Collection and published by The Lost Century of Sports Collection. This book was released on 2024-04-24 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ella Black was the elusive and enigmatic Pittsburgh baseball correspondent for The Sporting Life newspaper from March to November of 1890. Ella remains a mysterious figure beyond the 37 articles (94,000 words) in this volume of the Sports She Wrote series. After her final article she disappeared from journalism and her life story is unknown. The Sporting Life, with over 40,000 subscribers, featured weekly reports from correspondents nationwide who often engaged in rivalry and mockery akin to modern social media posts. Many of these comments directed at Ella are included in this volume. As the newspaper's sole female correspondent, Ella faced condescension and criticism, even questioning her gender and competence. However, she fearlessly sparred with them, sharing insights into players' lives and fans' sentiments, shattering stereotypes about women's knowledge of sports. Ella chose a pivotal season in which to write, as many disaffected players abandoned the established major leagues and formed their own league in 1890, upsetting the status quo. The National League (the same one that exists today) and the American Association (which folded in 1891), were challenged by the upstart Players' League, also known as the Brotherhood League, formed by the players themselves who banded together to fight the authoritarian dictates of the moguls who ran the other two leagues. The Brotherhood only lasted one year, during which Ella provided insightful coverage of its rise and fall. Ella reported on the two teams in Pittsburgh: The National League Alleghenies and the Players' League Burghers. Both teams had losing records, with the Alleghenies posting one of the worst records of all time, winning only 23 games and losing 113. Despite initial skepticism about her gender, Ella met with players and executives, and the renowned Hall of Fame sportswriter Henry Chadwick vouched for her authenticity as a woman who knew baseball. Ella's writing reflects her love for baseball, her commitment to journalistic integrity, her belief in gender equality and her determination to prove herself in a male-dominated field. Her legacy as a pioneering sports journalist endures, a testament to her resilience and dedication to breaking barriers in sports reporting. Ella provides rare access to the female perspective on baseball in the 19th century. She used her gender to her advantage, managing to overhear gossip and obtain scoops revealed in her presence because the speakers assumed she was "only a woman" who would not understand what they were discussing. Ella repeated this "I know I am only a woman" trope passive-aggressively in her articles when responding to the haughty men who questioned her gender and her baseball acumen. The primary leader of the Players' League was John Montgomery Ward, a Hall of Fame player and a lawyer. Much more about Ward, his famous wife, the actress Helen Dauvray, and the formation and demise of the Players' League can be found in the Sports She Wrote volume: Helen Dauvray, The Actress Who Loved Baseball. Sports She Wrote is a 31-volume time-capsule of primary documents written by more than 500 women in the 19th century.

Download or read book A Sweet Sinner written by Hume Nisbet and published by Graphic Arts Books. This book was released on 2022-01-11 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Sweet Sinner (1897) is a novel by Hume Nisbet. Published at the height of his career as a leading ghost story writer of the Victorian era, A Sweet Sinner is a tale of romance and temptation written in the tradition of the sensation novel. Largely unknown by today’s audience, Hume Nisbet was a versatile writer whose experiences as an artist and traveler inform his wide-ranging body of work. “Miss Kate Keath is her name, the only child and heiress of a wealthy and retired Australian squatter, who for the past twelve months has taken up his abode in the suburbs of his most ancient, picturesque, and historical Castletown. Miss Kate was a native of New South Wales, and till her fifteenth year had passed all her days in that sunny climate...” After an idyllic youth in Australia, Miss Kate Keath moves to Scotland to complete her education. Although she shows little promise as a painter, her teacher Jamie Glen finds himself drawn to her remarkable beauty and endeavors to show patience to her always. At her family’s castle in the heather-streaked highlands, their lesson is interrupted by the sudden arrival of Havelock Gordon, a handsome young man with mysterious intentions and palpable contempt for Jamie. With a beautifully designed cover and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of Hume Nisbet’s A Sweet Sinner is a classic of Victorian fiction reimagined for modern readers.
