Book Synopsis Beneath the Veil of Smoke and Ash by : Tammy Pasterick
Download or read book Beneath the Veil of Smoke and Ash written by Tammy Pasterick and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2021-09-21 with total page 397 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It’s Pittsburgh, 1910—the golden age of steel in the land of opportunity. Eastern European immigrants Janos and Karina Kovac should be prospering, but their American dream is fading faster than the colors on the sun-drenched flag of their adopted country. Janos is exhausted from a decade of twelve-hour shifts, seven days per week, at the local mill. Karina, meanwhile, thinks she has found an escape from their run-down ethnic neighborhood in the modern home of a mill manager—until she discovers she is expected to perform the duties of both housekeeper and mistress. Though she resents her employer’s advances, they are more tolerable than being groped by drunks at the town’s boarding house. When Janos witnesses a gruesome accident at his furnace on the same day Karina learns she will lose her job, the Kovac family begins to unravel. Janos learns there are people at the mill who pose a greater risk to his life than the work itself, while Karina—panicked by the thought of returning to work at the boarding house—becomes unhinged and wreaks a path of destruction so wide that her children are swept up in the storm. In the aftermath, Janos must rebuild his shattered family with the help of an unlikely ally. Impeccably researched and deeply human, Beneath the Veil of Smoke and Ash delivers a timeless message about mental illness while paying tribute to the sacrifices America’s immigrant ancestors made.

Book Synopsis The Southern Transjordan Edomite Plateau and the Dead Sea Rift Valley by : Burton MacDonald
Download or read book The Southern Transjordan Edomite Plateau and the Dead Sea Rift Valley written by Burton MacDonald and published by Oxbow Books. This book was released on 2015-03-12 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Burton MacDonald presents an in-depth study of the archaeology and history of human presence over the past five-six thousand years in the southern segment of the Transjordan/Edomite Plateau and the Dead Sea Rift Valley to the west. The evidence from archaeology for the area spans the entire period though the time for which literary evidence is available is only the past 4000 years, from the Middle Bronze Age (2000-1550 BC). Once literary evidence is available, however, it complements the archaeological record and, as can be amply demonstrated, the written records can be clarified only through the archaeological data. These two sources are, thus, used to describe environments, resources, industries, settlement patterns, and the lifestyles of the inhabitants of this pivotal region. The result is a “story” of the people who lived in the area from the Bronze Age through the Islamic period. What is evident is that there were differences in certain archaeological periods in settlement patterns, as well as lifestyles, between those who lived on the southern segment of the Plateau and those who lived in the Dead Sea Rift Valley or in the lowlands immediately to the west. Moreover, it is obvious that when there were periods of trade and industry, for example, the spice trade and copper mining and processing, the population of the area was higher. Stable governance brought about growth in population and prosperity. But other factors also played their part in these ebbs and flows of population: climatic fluctuations affecting the availability of water and arable land; the development and adoption of new technologies in farming practices, raw material extraction and industrial methods, processes and transportation; and political change resulting in periods of relative stability and instability in government.
Download or read book Petra's Ashes written by Petra Nicoll and published by . This book was released on 2016-09-15 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Like a Phoenix she will rise out of the Ashes of despair and soar!"My desire in writing this book was to inspire someone in this world who perhaps asks the same question that I did as a young adult. Why am I here and what is my true purpose on EARTH? "I was becoming transformed and more intuitive, yes even psychic, moving into a life of a meditator. Being authentic and soul-centered costs you your ticket to ride from the collective mainstream to the illusion of safe and secure. It opens the door to your bloody and glistening, broken whole heart, which will reveal to you the honey of this wildly delicious, messy life. Leaves you and those you touch, feeling radically free. My life had been laced with chaos and unmet emotional needs and here I was filled with such deep love and contentment."--C. G. Jung said: "People will do anything, no matter how absurd, to avoid facing their fear."

Book Synopsis Life in a Cave in Petra with the Bdoul by : Judith McKenzie
Download or read book Life in a Cave in Petra with the Bdoul written by Judith McKenzie and published by Manar al-Athar, University of Oxford. This book was released on 2022-09-15 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From 1981 until 1986, the archaeologist Judith McKenzie, then a graduate student at the University of Sydney, traveled to the ancient site of Petra in Jordan, living in a cave there for extended periods, in order to survey and measure architectural moldings on the rock-cut monuments. It was a critical time in the history of Petra, where, for centuries, its local inhabitants, known as the Bdoul, had lived and worked. But that tradition was coming to a close. In 1985, the Bdoul began a move to the nearby village of Umm Sayhoun, as directed by the Jordanian government. This first-hand account of life in a cave at Petra, based on diaries Judith kept at the time she lived among the Bdoul, is therefore important as a record of a lifestyle now largely vanished. As she writes in her introduction: "I spent so much time socializing with the Bdoul, I came to observe many aspects of Bdoul life in a series of visits over three main field seasons. As women we had access to the world of young girls and women, which men from outside did not, while we were also sometimes treated as honorary men." This memoir thus stands as a reminder of life at Petra before the arrival of modern-day tourism at the site. But this book is not only a memoir. Observations are made on the ways in which the Bdoul have adapted to their new environment. Changes at the site that have taken place since 1981 because of weathering and erosion are recorded through comparisons between photographs taken forty years ago and more recent images. Ramifications of the expansion of the tourist-industry at Petra in the 21st century are also considered. Life in a Cave in Petra with the Bdoul: 1981-1986 is therefore an important and essential volume on the archaeology and history of one of the best-known ancient sites in the world.
