Book excerpt: Excerpt from Neighborhood Entertainments The average American little needs advice on the conduct of his farm or business; or, if he thinks he does, a large supply of such help in farming and trading as books and periodicals can give, is available to him. But many a man who is well to do and knows how to continue to make money, is ignorant how to spend it in a way to bring to himself, and confer upon his wife and children, those conveniences, comforts and niceties which alone make money worth acquiring and life worth living. He hardly realizes that they are within his reach. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Synopsis The Last Half-Day in the District School by : Birdie Fraser
Download or read book The Last Half-Day in the District School written by Birdie Fraser and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-04 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Last Half-Day in the District School: Comic Entertainment in Two Acts This play was first publicly presented at the McKinley School under the auspices of the Mother's Club, and so captivated the popular fancy that four additional performances were given. These were held by request in the larger Orpheum Theater - each time to an overflowing house. A description of the play was later given in a write-up of the work of this club which appeared in one of the national teacher's magazines. Since the publication of that article, calls for the play by schools and clubs in all parts of the country have been so numerous that the authors have decided to publish it in book form. This play possesses an advantage over other district-school plays because of its originality and adaptability. The several songs and recitations may be changed if others seem more desirable, while keeping the characters the same. The answers to many of the questions may be changed to local hits of the most humorous character. A great deal of the fun lies in this very fact. Likewise, the costumes and the stage setting may be adapted to meet the requirements of local traditions and circumstances. When played by people of wit and a sense of humor The Last Half-Day in the District School will, we believe, prove an unbounded success. It is particularly comical when presented by adults dressed as children. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER * One of NPR's Best Books of 2020 "A provocative, absorbing read." — People “A feast of a read... I finished A Good Neighborhood in a single sitting. Yes, it’s that good.” —Jodi Picoult, #1New York Times bestselling author of Small Great Thingsand A Spark of Light In Oak Knoll, a verdant, tight-knit North Carolina neighborhood, professor of forestry and ecology Valerie Alston-Holt is raising her bright and talented biracial son, Xavier, who’s headed to college in the fall. All is well until the Whitmans—a family with new money and a secretly troubled teenage daughter—raze the house and trees next door to build themselves a showplace. With little in common except a property line, these two families quickly find themselves at odds: first, over an historic oak tree in Valerie's yard, and soon after, the blossoming romance between their two teenagers. A Good Neighborhood asks big questions about life in America today—what does it mean to be a good neighbor? How do we live alongside each other when we don't see eye to eye?—as it explores the effects of class, race, and heartrending love in a story that’s as provocative as it is powerful.

Download or read book The Community Center (Classic Reprint) written by L. J. Hanifan and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-12 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Community Center In 1913, at the suggestion of Hon. M. P. Shawkey, State Superintendent of Schools of West Virginia, I prepared A Handbook for Community Meetings at Rural Schoolhouses, for the use of West Virginia teachers in a campaign for reviving community social life, particularly in rural and village communities. Soon after this handbook was issued, Dr. P. P. Claxton requested, and was furnished, thirty-five hundred copies for distribution among the county superintendents of the United States. The continued demand for this handbook has been such that finally the editor of this series requested me to prepare the manuscript of a book on the community center, for teachers and educators interested in this movement, which should cover the entire field in a more comprehensive way. Briefly stated, the book undertakes to present some of the more important rural life problems, particularly as regards rural social life and recreation, and to offer suggestions as to how the teacher, by means of the school as a community center, may contribute very largely to the solution of these problems.

Download or read book The Revisionaries written by A. R. Moxon and published by Melville House. This book was released on 2020-12-01 with total page 609 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A modern-day classic."—Ron Charles, Washington Post “A spectacular invention.”—The New York Times "Compulsively readable."—NPR Things do not bode well for Father Julius. . . A street preacher decked out in denim robes and running shoes, Julius is a source of inspiration for a community that knows nothing of his scandalous origins. But when a nearby mental hospital releases its patients to run amok in his neighborhood, his trusted if bedraggled flock turns expectantly to Julius to find out what’s going on. Amid the descending chaos, Julius encounters a hospital escapee who babbles prophecies of doom, and the growing palpable sense of impending danger intensifies . . . as does the feeling that everyone may be relying on a street preacher just a little too much. Still, Julius decides he must confront the forces that threaten his congregation—including the peculiar followers of a religious cult, the mysterious men and women dressed all in red seen fleetingly amid the bedlam, and an enigmatic smoking figure who seems to know what’s going to happen just before it does. The Revisionaries is a wildly imaginative, masterfully rendered, and suspenseful tale that conjures the bold outlandish stylishness of Thomas Pynchon, Margaret Atwood, and Alan Moore—while being unlike anything that’s come before.
Book Synopsis The Art of Pulp Fiction: An Illustrated History of Vintage Paperbacks by : Ed Hulse
Download or read book The Art of Pulp Fiction: An Illustrated History of Vintage Paperbacks written by Ed Hulse and published by National Geographic Books. This book was released on 2021-09-28 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Judge these books by their covers! Get immersed in the definitive visual history of pulp fiction paperbacks from 1940 to 1970. The Art of Pulp Fiction: An Illustrated History of Vintage Paperbacks chronicles the history of pocket-sized paperbound books designed for mass-market consumption, specifically concentrating on the period from 1940 to 1970. These three decades saw paperbacks eclipse cheap pulp magazines and expensive clothbound books as the most popular delivery vehicle for escapist fiction. To catch the eyes of potential buyers they were adorned with covers that were invariably vibrant, frequently garish, and occasionally lurid. Today the early paperbacks--like the earlier pulps, inexpensively produced and considered disposable by casual readers--are treasured collector's items. Award-winning editor Ed Hulse (The Art of the Pulps and The Blood 'n' Thunder Guide to Pulp Fiction) comprehensively covers the pulp-fiction paperback's heyday. Hulse writes the individual chapter introductions and the captions, while a team of genre specialists and art aficionados contribute the special features included in each chapter. These focus on particularly important authors, artists, publishers, and sub-genres. Illustrated with more than 500 memorable covers and original cover paintings. Hulse's extensive captions, meanwhile, offer a running commentary on this significant genre, and also contain many obscure but entertaining factoids. Images used in The Art of Pulp Fiction have been sourced from the largest American paperback collections in private hands, and have been curated with rarity in mind, as well as graphic appeal. Consequently, many covers are reproduced here for the first time since the books were first issued. With an overall Introduction by Richard A. Lupoff, novelist, essayist, pop-culture historian, and author of The Great American Paperback (2001).
