Book Synopsis Stalking the Wild Sweetgrass by : Robert J. Dufault
Download or read book Stalking the Wild Sweetgrass written by Robert J. Dufault and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-09 with total page 119 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stalking the Wild Sweetgrass: Domestication and Horticulture of the Grass Used in African-American Coiled Basketry is concerned with the historical domestication of sweetgrass, the main construction/structural grass used in the three century old African-American tradition of coiled basketry in South Carolina. During the plantation era in southern agriculture, sweetgrass baskets were made for post-harvest processing and storage of rice by enslaved Africans from Lower Cape Fear, North Carolina to northern Florida. Enslaved Africans from the Rice Kingdom in Africa were prized for the basketry and rice agronomic skills and were specially sought by slavery traders. Today, this ancient craft still thrives in the community of Mt. Pleasant, South Carolina. Authored by one of the most renowned experts in the field and filled with illuminating color photographs, this volume provides knowledge of the horticulture of an extremely important wild plant and an example of the perils of plant- and people-based research and experimentation. As one of the few authoritative texts on the subject, Stalking the Wild Sweetgrass: Domestication and Horticulture of the Grass Used in African-American Coiled Basketry is a resourceful volume on wild sweetgrass, suitable for researchers and students alike.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bowing, I accept the sword, turn to the bully, and silently wait. Today I will die. It will be a death in a battle for pride and acceptance. The challengers are brave and willing, but undisciplined and chaotic. My katana meets their willingness to charge forward and attack their death. My friend Masa knew the secrets of the shrine and why it was built on the mountain. We step into the round room, the small light increasing as it bounces from the smooth walls. The Samurai vowed loyalty to the Shogun. The Shaolin monks vow faithfulness to the discipline at the heart of Gung Fu. They never stray from the training. The Shaolin never fail to stand and answer when called. True Gung Fu warriors can surpass time and place. The Shaolin are wizards. I never stray from the training.
Download or read book Sweetgrass written by Patricia Ann Kuess and published by Writers Branding LLC. This book was released on 2021-01-07 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is late Spring, 1864. Paramours Johnathan Traver and Esher Coley, and Gladys, the mother Esher adopted on the abortive wagon train they all endured, are traveling the Prairie searching for the land Esher sees in his dreams, or "feels" in his bones. Suddenly-- gunshots! Their days will never be the same again. For those gunshots are how they meet Bethany and her two small children. Now they are five people searching for a home, and ultimately a family. Except for Johnathan. He was not cooperating. It was never his dream to farm, much less live with so many people. He accepted Gladys, a mother for the long-orphaned Esher, that was okay, and he was prepared for children to adopt because he knew that Esher wanted children, but Bethany? She was a threat he never envisioned. He was ready to fight for his dream. He fought and survived an abusive boyhood, he fought and survived a grisly war, he would fight and survive this: he would make his dream count. But Bethany was a fighter too. She also survived an abusive girlhood, and was as fearless as Johnathan in meeting life head on, come what may. The SWEETGRASS series is essentially a family-making story, but how can a family be in the making with these two in it? The other characters do not take a backseat in this dilemma. Even the little children contribute to ameliorate the struggle between their mother and their new Uncle John. But in the end, it is Johnathan and Bethany who must decide between keeping a tight hold on their childhood wounds, or dare to burst free and start over.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ellen Hart was named the 2017 MWA Grand Master, the most distinguished lifetime achievement award offered in the mystery community. Restaurateur and part-time P.I. Jane Lawless is taking some much-needed time off at her family's lodge when her best friend, Cordelia, arrives with news that Tess, one of their good friends, has taken a nasty fall and needs their help with rehearsals for a play that is set to open in a week. When Tess isn't on crutches, she helps run the Thunderhook Lodge, the premier resort on Lost Lake. And while she clearly needs Jane and Cordelia's assistance, she isn't exactly acting all that grateful. A man who claims to be a journalist has arrived in Lost Lake with an old photograph and some questions for Tess that go back decades. His questions have put her on edge, and when he shows up peeking through her kitchen window, everyone else is right there with her. As beloved as Tess is, there are plenty of people who don't care about any so-called journalist and are happy to protect her, but how far are they willing to take it? And when will they need answers to questions that that only Tess can provide? In The Lost Women of Lost Lake—the most engrossing mystery yet from Lambda and Minnesota Book Award–winning, MWA Grand Master author Ellen Hart—Jane's only hope of protecting her friends from the secrets that are surfacing all around them is to uncover the whole truth before anyone else can.

To reward Maggie, the king makes her a princess, and therefore a good catch for the local noble bachelors. Only problem is, she doesn't want to get married. She wants to be with Moonshine, whose Unicorn Creed, as he understands it, forbids him to consort with anyone except a chaste maiden.

Of course, in the process they have to try to save the land of Argonia again, this time from a were-man, a revolutionary nymph, a town's worth of zombies, an ice worm and an evil wizard.
