Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A remarkable, poignant collection." —Choice "This oral history of black Madison is an invaluable primary document for students, general readers, and scholars. Interestingly it illuminates the white side of Madison as much as it reveals about what transpired in the black community." —Darlene Clark Hine, from the Foreword Twenty Black residents of a small Ohio River town here tell the stories of their lives. Madison, though in the North, had its cultural roots in the south, and for most of the twentieth century the town was strictly segregated. In their own words, Black men and women of Madison describe the deprivations of discrimination in their hometown: what it meant, personally and culturally, to be denied opportunities for participation in the educational, economic, political, and social life of the white community. And they describe how they created a community of their own, strong and viable, self-sustaining and mutually supportive of its members.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Accident-prone you might wonder? Not really. But Anthony Pasqualetti is acutely aware that the incidents in his long and fulfilling life are rich with close-calls, death-defying thrills, and uncanny acts of bravery and singular episodes where any one man could have easily succumbed or chose to flee. Anthony G. Pasqualetti chose to take on his life lessons with integrity, honesty and clarity. Each close call made him wonder what the Good Lord had in store for him. Yet each brush with death confirmed his lust for life and his ability to work diligently through adversity. He considers himself a common man found in uncommon circumstances. He always tries to deal with whatever comes along as a test and a process by which he would grow stronger and more resilient. Tony is a man who doesn't see why people are amazed that he has lived to the age of 80, since any ten men should have given up when faced with so many personal perils. This story is told completely from the author's perspective. A simple tale in complexity; a string of diverse dilemmas handled with pragmatic certainty --- Tony is somewhat amazed to find out that he was --- born to survive with a will to live.

The experiences we had and endured along the way while making memories that would last a lifetime. The things that we often sat around talking about on so many occasions and would laugh so hard we would be in tears. My mother felt that other people would enjoy some of our fondest memories from my childhood as she did her best to raise her children as a single parent most of the time. My family felt it was a blessing to be able to look back and laugh about it all, what my mother referred to as the "good old days". There are some stories you would not believe, but they a true some are funny and some are sad. My mother passed away on Thanksgiving day of 2006 so I am really trying to keep a promise that I made to her and keep our fondest and most cherished memories from my childhood and share it with the world. That is what my mother wanted me to do, I really hope you enjoy "Before We Get Old" (the good old days).

Book Synopsis The Sound of Distant Drums by : Chuck Knox
Download or read book The Sound of Distant Drums written by Chuck Knox and published by Author House. This book was released on 2005-05-09 with total page 457 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Heroes of this book are the veterans and their families whose stories span 140+ years in protecting our country. Their stories are history, filled with the mundane events of service life, the fear of combat, the horror that front line infantrymen faced, the tension that air crews and pilots faced, the vastness of the Pacific that confronted sailors, the strain on the mind and bodies of Prisoners of War, and humor viewed through the eyes of the veterans. As you read their stories listen to the voices of these veterans and picture in your mind an aging color guard from a local veterans post; visualize them marching into the mist, to the sound of distant drums and the muted bugles call, along with the men and women who have gone before. There are no large marble memorials to these individual veterans; their monument is a free United States. I am left with one thought about the experience of speaking with these people; God bless the United States of America and all who serve her.

Book excerpt: People may wonder why I got a cover on my book like I do. Well, all through my life, I come to realize no matter what I went and got myself into, the Good Lord has had me in the palm of His hand the entire time. I titled my book All in Time because all in time, being behind prison walls gave me time to think and get my mind right. And on the other hand, all in time, everything will eventually fall together in life. So I would look at it both ways, and that's why I decided to use that title for my book. Once you read this book, it will make sense to you for the way I do things the way I did. No one has pushed life more to the limit than I have at times, but now it's time to sit back and enjoy life for what it is.
