Book Synopsis Cities of the Dead by : William A. Blair
Download or read book Cities of the Dead written by William A. Blair and published by Univ of North Carolina Press. This book was released on 2011-01-20 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Exploring the history of Civil War commemorations from both sides of the color line, William Blair places the development of memorial holidays, Emancipation Day celebrations, and other remembrances in the context of Reconstruction politics and race relations in the South. His grassroots examination of these civic rituals demonstrates that the politics of commemoration remained far more contentious than has been previously acknowledged. Commemorations by ex-Confederates were intended at first to maintain a separate identity from the U.S. government, Blair argues, not as a vehicle for promoting sectional healing. The burial grounds of fallen heroes, known as Cities of the Dead, often became contested ground, especially for Confederate women who were opposed to Reconstruction. And until the turn of the century, African Americans used freedom celebrations to lobby for greater political power and tried to create a national holiday to recognize emancipation. Blair's analysis shows that some festive occasions that we celebrate even today have a divisive and sometimes violent past as various groups with conflicting political agendas attempted to define the meaning of the Civil War.

Now Crawford, with the aid of Deputy Harris Green, has cornered Fellowes at last, in the sleepy little town of Burkittsville. But is it a human killer they must confront -- or an evil force from out of the past, given life in the shape of a man? Long before the rest of America had heard of the Blair Witch, two good men in the Black Hills of Burkittsville faced down a demon out of the past.
Book Synopsis Confessions of a Funeral Director by : Caleb Wilde
Download or read book Confessions of a Funeral Director written by Caleb Wilde and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2017-09-26 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Wise, vulnerable, and surprisingly relatable . . . funny in all the right places and enormously helpful throughout. It will change how you think about death.” —Rachel Held Evans, New York Times–bestselling author of Searching for Sunday We are a people who deeply fear death. While humans are biologically wired to evade death for as long as possible, we have become too adept at hiding from it, vilifying it, and—when it can be avoided no longer—letting the professionals take over. Sixth-generation funeral director Caleb Wilde understands this reticence and fear. He had planned to get as far away from the family business as possible. He wanted to make a difference in the world, and how could he do that if all the people he worked with were . . . dead? Slowly, he discovered that caring for the deceased and their loved ones was making a difference—in other people’s lives to be sure, but it also seemed to be saving his own. A spirituality of death began to emerge as he observed the family who lovingly dressed their deceased father for his burial; the nursing home that honored a woman’s life by standing in procession as her body was taken away; the funeral that united a conflicted community. Through stories like these, told with equal parts humor and poignancy, Wilde’s candid memoir offers an intimate look into the business of death and a new perspective on living and dying. “Open[s] up conversations about life’s ultimate concerns.” —The Washington Post “As a look behind the closed doors of the death industry, as well as a candid exploration of Wilde’s own faith journey, this book is fascinating and compelling.” —National Catholic Reporter “[A] stunner of a debut.” —Rachel Held Evans, author of Inspired
Book Synopsis The Envious Siblings: and Other Morbid Nursery Rhymes by : Landis Blair
Download or read book The Envious Siblings: and Other Morbid Nursery Rhymes written by Landis Blair and published by W. W. Norton & Company. This book was released on 2019-10-08 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Eight gleefully macabre vignettes by an award- winning comics artist, as delightful as they are deadly. Inspired by the dark imagination of Edward Gorey, Envious Siblings is a twisted and hauntingly funny debut. Comics artist Landis Blair interweaves absurdist horror and humor into brief, rhyming vignettes at once transgressive and hilarious. In Blair’s surreal universe, a lost child watches as bewhiskered monsters gobble up her fellow train passengers; a band of kids merrily plays a gut- churning game with playground toys; and two sisters, grinning madly, tear each other apart. These charmingly perverse creations take ordinary settings— a living room, a subway car, a playground— and spin them in a nightmarish direction. Envious Siblings heralds a brilliant new cartooning talent, and will captivate readers who have thrilled to the lurid fantasies of Roald Dahl, Quentin Blake, Charles Addams, Shel Silverstein, and Tim Burton.

Book Synopsis Family from Good Wholesome Stock by : Norma Love Becker
Download or read book Family from Good Wholesome Stock written by Norma Love Becker and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2022-04-27 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 1700-1800’s was a period of drastic change for those that immigrated to the U.S. from their own homelands. Leaving family members behind for a long and bold migration trip was often out of desperation. They were willing to face overwhelming challenges and risks for successfully paving the way for you and me today. My families came to America to seek refuge from Ireland and England with inspired optimism driven by a dream to own their own land and to seek independent liberty and freedom. They saw potential in trying new adventures and to accept new things. The journeys were difficult and dangerous for the people and the animals. They pushed boundaries to advance a cause and had determination in succeeding by overcoming those great challenges. I want to preserve what my ancestors did for me and continue their good morals and faith. I’m curious about where my ancestors came from and the origin of “Love”, my last name. I know family ties and morals from good wholesome stock led me as I grew up. But change happens, so it is up to me to preserve what my life was like and accept the “new” changes that comes. But as I approach the winter of my life, I find it has caught me by surprise that I’m in it. How did it get here so fast? Where did the years go? It seems like yesterday that I was young. But by reminiscing my memories through people I knew, old snapshots, newspaper clippings and stories told, I feel the joy in being just a little younger by writing my life for you. I hope you can relate. P.S. This is a follow-up story to my first book “Four Generations on the Love Farm”. I want my children to know the impact families have by knowing one another. They were important to me. Today, distance interferes with that, and I wanted my children to realize they also came from good wholesome stock.
