Book Synopsis My Search for Meaning by : Viola M. Jaynes
Download or read book My Search for Meaning written by Viola M. Jaynes and published by . This book was released on 2011-06-01 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: My Search for Meaning is an intimate collection of memories of a child growing up first in an orphanage in Germany, then in Middle America. Abandoned by her mother - who escaped East Germany just as the Berlin Wall was being erected - the child finds herself alone in a hard-to-understand world that is itself undergoing great change. Against a pervasive backdrop of loneliness, institutional life and brutal betrayals, there is still the innocence and wonder of childhood and sudden, inexplicable joys. A sensitive child in life without a protector learns to go on instinct. What informs instinct in this memoir is a seedling faith in the overall goodness of life, a belief that things will, with time and effort, work together for good. What begins as a search for answers becomes a journey of understanding. As the mystery unfolds a young woman emerges, forged from all she has endured but also from mercy and compassion and a deeply held conviction that each of us, at any moment, can transform our lives.

Download or read book Emily's Story written by Clark Kidder and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-02-28 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It seems incomprehensible that there was a time in America s not-so-distant past that nearly 200,000 children could be loaded on trains in large cities on our East Coast, sent to the rural Midwest, and presented for the picking to anyone who expressed an interest in them. That's exactly what happened between the years 1854 and 1930. The primitive social experiment became known as placing out, and had its origins in a New York City organization founded by Charles Loring Brace called the Children's Aid Society. The Society gathered up orphans, half-orphans, and abandoned children from streets and orphanages, and placed them on what are now referred to as Orphan Trains. It was Brace s belief that there was always room for one more at a farmer s table. The stories of the individual children involved in this great migration of little emigrants have nearly all been lost in the attic of American history. In this book, the author tells the true story of his paternal grandmother, the late Emily (Reese) Kidder, who, at the tender age of fourteen, became one of the aforementioned children who rode an Orphan Train. In 1906, Emily was plucked from the Elizabeth Home for Girls, operated by the Children's Aid Society, and placed on a train, along with eight other children, bound for Hopkinton, Iowa. Emily s journey, as it turned out, was only just beginning. Life had many lessons in store for her lessons that would involve overcoming adversity, of perseverance, love, and great loss. Emily's story is told through the use of primary material, oral history, interviews, and historical photographs. It is a tribute to the human spirit of an extraordinary young girl who became a woman a woman to whom the heartfelt phrase there s no place like home, had a very profound meaning.
Book Synopsis Dark Brown Is the River by : Dorothy Lund
Download or read book Dark Brown Is the River written by Dorothy Lund and published by . This book was released on 2020-03 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Author's NoteWhen I was young, I thought my father was the true author ofOliver Twist. Just as little Oliver was abused in an orphanage, so was my father similarly mistreated in such a place. "The food was terrible," he told me, "and sometimes it had green stuff floating in it. Once we did have something decent, so I asked for more. Boy did I catch hell."As I grew older, I realized that Charles Dickens wrote Oliver Twist before my father, Wesley Tooper, was born. He never read the book, nor did he know it existed, but both he and Dickens knew what they were talking about.Dark Brown is the River was inspired by my father's story. I have presented it as he, and others-my mother, Aunt Lilly, her daughters Wanda and Jackie, Uncle Cleve (who got my father out of "more jams than you could cover bread with"), and old Kate Tooper-told it to me in bits and pieces as I was growing up. What dialogue and events I created, I have done so with the knowledge of the characters in mind-how they would speak, act, and react under certain situations.My other sources are letters I found in my mother's closet long after my father's death. Some were written in the caboose of an Illinois Central steam train, others on a troop ship sailing "across the pond," others in the trenches of World War I and a French hospital for victims of mustard gas. I discovered other letters written in many locations and under different and sometimes dire circumstances. Those I have included in my book are exactly as they were written.-Dorothy Tooper Lund
