Edited and Introduced by Raymond Foye. Afterword by Neeli Cherkovski. The brief life of Eric Walker (1964-1994) was also a remarkably productive one. He was a close friend and a peer to many of the important poets of San Francisco and Berkeley in his day: Bob Kaufman, Philip Lamantia, Tisa Walden, Howard Hart, Kirby Doyle, Neeli Cherkovski, Julia Vinograd, and many others. This is the first major collection of his work. "It began as a kind of fairytale life in poetry: the young man from the provinces arrives in San Francisco to meet his mentors, the Beat poets of San Francisco and Berkeley. It was 1981, he was seventeen, he slept on floors, begged food, bummed cigarettes, and in the morning left behind scribbled poems that delighted and amazed his hosts. These early years were filled with promise, joy, and exuberance, but there followed in his twenties a chaotic descent into mental illness. The poetry and madness, in classic fashion, often went hand in hand. A dozen years and five hundred poems later, he was found hanging in a prison cell, aged 29."--Raymond Foye, from the Introduction "The poems of Eric Walker are exquisite. Not only did he possess a musical ear and a natural sense of craft, but he left behind a considerable body of work. Although repetitive at times, that in itself only enhances the sense of mastery over his interior demons and gives the reader a grasp of what would rise to the surface later if his life had not been so tragically shortened. They are so much of his mind and of his imagination, but they grew out of the rough and beautiful coast lands of California, and down through the tangled shadows of his psychic redwood forest."--Neeli Cherkovski, from the Afterword

Download or read book Defining Moments in the Life And Times of Tyrone Pierre Dumas written by Tyrone Pierre (Kofi) Dumas and published by Fulton Books, Inc.. This book was released on 2022-07-14 with total page 163 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: My life and times have taken many twist and turns. When I was in grade school, at Twelfth Street School, I thought I was going to be a piano player after taking lessons because we had to piano at home for me to practice that did not last long. In junior high school at Robert Fulton Junior High, I fell in love with playing the drums and really got good at it. My mom broke down and purchased me a set of drums and even got to our community’s great drummers to teach me. Victor Sword was jazz drummer, and Vic Pitts was a drummer with the Seven Sounds R&B group. I learned so much from them and thought I would play in a band one day. In junior high I also fell in love with design and drafting in drafting class with the added learning in metal shop and carpentry class. Using my hand was one of the common things about all those possible career choices. The piano and the drum made noise while I could sit for hours with a pencil/pen and draw. By 1970–71, while in my first year of college, I settled on architecture. I quit when I found no time to practice as my studies and assignments started to take all my time. I should add that along with my college work and study requirements, I found some friends and girls who became a part of my new priorities. As a Black first-generation college student, I lost my mind while partying with my brotherhood and sisterhood most of the week and weekends. I also found love in all that chaos when I met my future wife, and we had kids, while starting a family in 1972–73. Life changed again as I figured out that many sacrifices would have to take center stage in pursuit of completing college. I started college at MATC (Milwaukee Area Technical College) in 1970, and in 1973/74, I was admitted into UWM (University of WI-Milwaukee) School of Architecture. I was so in the groove to get my degree. During a two-year period (1973–1975), I decided to finish up at MATC part-time to get my associates degree, while attending UWM full-time from 1973 to 1977 to get my bachelor’s degree. For a two-year period, I attended both day and night schools, worked PT jobs and work study jobs, and participated in the raising of out two children while my wife worked full-time. I had quit drinking, partying, and smoking after I got married and was needing some mental-health stability, which I found in 1974, when I started doing stand-up comedy, as inspired by comedian Richard Pryor. The rest is history, as I achieved all my goals by getting both my associate and bachelor’s degrees, with the intervention of my Lord and Savior/God during all the times I thought I could not make it. In fact, during the times I wanted to quit, my wife would call my mother and my mother-in-law, and I would go to sit with them and get the words of wisdom from these angels for support. There were other significant help and support during my career launch from the beginning until now. Ms. Margaret Garner-Thompson gave me the money to pay my MATC tuition in 1970. Mr. Prentice McKinney told me about student financial aid, which allowed me to pay for my college years. Dr. Earnest Spaights, Rachel Seymore, Clara New, Paul Pettie, Dr. Sandra Moore, and many others at UWM and MATC helped me clarify purpose and meaning in my life from 1970 to 1977. Triumph the Church of God in Christ became a foundation of faith while in college where Aunt Red, Reverend Buck, Queenie, and my mother-in-law, Hagar Harrel, lifted me up to do well as they worked to build a new church and they added me to the design committee. My school time, life, and family got an intervention-based boost from these angels, sent by God. My sister Sharon was married with her family at that time while my brother Anthony was in the US Navy. My grandmother, Grandcheer/Arvella Twine, was always cheering for me from her home in Fordyce, Arkansas, where I spent my summers as a kid. I am a product of my family, good people, friends, neighborhoods and community, which allowed the moments of my life to happen! Life for me is comparable to the alphabet, with A being the beginning of life (born date) and Z being the end of life (death). The real life and book you write is done in the B through Y. The many chapters are written by you and all those members of your family whom you have impacted. The chapters of the book continue to be written even when you have passed on and become an ancestor by your family members and friends. As an ancestor, every time your name is remembered, spoken, or thought about, you still live in love, peace, faith, and spirit within those still writing their book chapters! 1

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: - National Bestseller - You can live a full, happy, and healthy life without ever feeling excluded or deprived. When doctors told Danielle Walker that food didn't cause her autoimmune disease and couldn't help control it, she set out to prove them wrong. Diagnosed with an extreme form of ulcerative colitis at 22, Danielle was terrified she'd never be able to eat all the wonderful, great-tasting foods she loved growing up or host warm, welcoming gatherings with family and friends. So when the medicine she was prescribed became almost as debilitating as the disease itself, Danielle took matters into her own hands, turned her kitchen into a laboratory, and set to work creating gut-healthy versions of the foods she thought she'd never be able to enjoy again. Three New York Times bestselling cookbooks later, Danielle has become a beacon of hope for millions around the world suffering from autoimmune diseases, food allergies, and chronic ailments. Now for the first time, with stunning transparency about the personal toll her illness took on her physically, emotionally, and spiritually, Danielle reflects on everything she's learned during her decade-long journey toward healing--including the connection between gut health and overall well-being, the development of her favorite recipes, and the keys for not simply surviving her autoimmune disease but thriving despite it. Through her resilience, Danielle tells a story that provides hope--hope that despite your ailments or hardships, you can live a full, happy, and healthy life without ever feeling excluded or deprived. Food saved Danielle Walker. And it can save you, too. Includes six fan-favorite recipes and the stories behind them!

Download or read book In the Shadow of Isandlwana written by John Laband and published by Greenhill Books. This book was released on 2023-10-12 with total page 437 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Lord Chelmsford is not a bad man. He is industrious and conscientious so far as his lights guide him. But nature has refused to him the qualities of a great captain. He has suffered much and is entitled to certain commiseration.” – Thomas Gibson Bowles, Vanity Fair General Lord Chelmsford’s military career took him around the world; he served in the Crimean War, the Indian Mutiny and the Abyssinian Expedition, before commanding the British invasion of the Zulu Kingdom in South Africa. In January 1879, disaster struck when Chelmsford divided his forces at Isandlwana in the face of the enemy and the Zulu overwhelmed his camp, killing more than 1,300 of its defenders. Such a defeat was almost unprecedented in a Victorian colonial campaign. Despite Chelmsford's later victories at Gingindlovu and Ulundi, he was humiliatingly relieved of his command. His responsibility for Isandlwana dogged him for the rest of his days, and he would forever be associated with this historic defeat. In this comprehensive new biography, Anglo-Zulu War specialist John Laband, explores the personal character and military career of Lord Chelmsford, providing a well-rounded, well-balanced and well-informed picture of this complex military figure.

Adopting a long-term approach to current African issues, this text: Explores the legacies of the nineteenth century and the colonial period in the context of the contemporary era Highlights the role of nineteenth century and long-term internal dynamics in Africa’s modern challenges Combines recent scholarship with concise and effective narrative Features maps, illustrations, expanded references, and comprehensive endnotes A History of Modern Africa: 1800 to the Present, 3rd Edition is an excellent introduction to the subject for undergraduate students in relevant courses, and for general readers with interest in modern African history and current affairs.
