Download or read book Alva's Boy written by Alan Collins and published by Hybrid Publishers. This book was released on 2018-11-01 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Alan Collins' memoir successfully straddles both history and literature. It is a memoir that has wry appeal to the seasoned Jewish historical reader and the novice alike with its keen observations and its pacey narrative, detailing the life of a young Jewish boy growing up in Bondi in the 30s and 40s. Collins, who died in March 2008 aged 79, leaves a compelling story about part of Australia's rich journey of immigration, particularly its Jewish roots." - Reviewed by Sally Spalding, Moorabbin Glen Eira Leader, January 2009 "Collins' memoir is an illuminating look at Sydney's lively Jewish community in the 1930s and 1940s. It is also a testament of courage and resilience. Collins somehow survived his childhood and went on to become a successful businessman, writer, husband and father." - Dianne Dempsey, The Age November 2008

Book Synopsis Alva Vanderbilt Belmont by : Sylvia D. Hoffert
Download or read book Alva Vanderbilt Belmont written by Sylvia D. Hoffert and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2011-11-23 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A fascinating biography of the New York socialite who played a surprising role in the fight for suffrage. Born in the middle of the nineteenth century, Alva Vanderbilt Belmont was known to be domineering, temperamental, and opinionated. She married two millionaires, and pressured her daughter to wed an aristocrat. This resolve to get her own way regardless of the consequences stood her in good stead when she joined the American woman suffrage movement in 1909. Thereafter, she used her wealth, her administrative expertise, and her social celebrity to help convince Congress to pass the 19th Amendment and then to persuade the exhausted leaders of the National Woman’s Party to initiate a worldwide equal rights campaign. In this book, Sylvia D. Hoffert argues that Belmont was a feminist visionary and that her financial support was crucial to the success of the suffrage and equal rights movements. She also shows how Belmont’s activism, and the money she used to support it, enriches our understanding of the personal dynamics of the American woman’s rights movement. Drawing upon and analyzing Belmont’s own memoirs, she illustrates how this determined woman went about the complex and collaborative process of creating her public self. “Engaging . . . Highly recommended.” —Choice

Universe is pleased to bring back into print the little-known book of photographs of Jay Adams’s earliest days as a surfer and skateboarder, taken by his stepfather Kent Sherwood.

Book excerpt: A fairy tale for our times about the worlds we inhabit and the worlds we contain, from the astonishing new voice who introduced us to the strange and marvellous world of Observatory Mansions. Alva and Irva Dapps are identical twin sisters. They live in the city of Entralla, not a place you are likely to have visited. Alva is by nature an explorer; she longs to travel the world. Irva is a recluse, for whom a step outside the house is an ordeal. But the twins belong together -- they feel each other’s feelings, think each other’s thoughts, suffer together, love together and hate together -- they cannot survive without each other. Since childhood, the twins have built fantastical cities of Plasticine. But when Irva finally refuses to leave the house at all, the major work of their lives begins. Alva, attempting to return Irva to life, brings the city of Entralla into their home; she wanders its streets, observing, taking notes, measuring, and reports her findings to Irva, who painstakingly constructs a miniature Entralla of Plasticine. And the model city comes to serve Entralla in a way its creators could never have imagined. In Alva & Irva, Edward Carey takes the reader on an enchanting journey through a city of the imagination, with unforgettable heroines whose conflicting desires contain the seeds of both their destruction and their salvation.

After that, his plans include a glorious career, starting with college ball at Ohio State University. Everything is falling into place; his future looks bright. All that is missing is his dream car. Jake can’t believe his luck when he finds a 1959 Chevrolet Impala Sport Coupe for sale at a price he’d be a fool to refuse. After a quick test drive, he snaps the car up without a second thought.

Along with a V-8, black leather interior, brilliant chrome, and whitewalls, his new baby, Alva, comes with an undisclosed accessory: a resident demon out to destroy the lives of everyone Jake knows and loves. But Jake also quickly learns that Alva is as determined as he is—and she has more than a few wicked tricks at her disposal.

Book excerpt: Alva is furious. She is being banished because she almost had her beloved foster brother, Torben, and his future bride, Eislyn, murdered. Now she is condemned, by her family, to live as a widower’s new wife high in the mountains for the rest of her life. However, once she has lived there for a short time, she realizes the emotions she had experienced in the past had been selfish and immature, not a true lasting love. Repentant at last, she finds forgiveness and peace with God. Then tragedy strikes and Alva’s life is shattered once more. She is forced to face her family again for the welfare of her adopted children. Although Alva is now a changed woman, will that be evident to her family? Will they forgive her or will she forever bear the guilt and shame of her sin? On the road to forgiveness and freedom Alva has many trials, including attacks by wild animals, and an accidental fire that could have ended her life. Each time something terrible happens she wonders if she will ever be free of the consequences of her past. It takes many months, and a final test of her faith, before she is fully forgiven; freed to live, and love, again.
