Book excerpt: Ramona, continuously in print for over a century, has become a cultural icon, but Jackson's prolific career left us with much more, notably her achievements as a prose writer and her work as an early activist on behalf of Native Americans.

Download or read book Helen Hunt Jackson and Her Indian Reform Legacy written by Valerie Sherer Mathes and published by . This book was released on 1997 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Helen Hunt Jackson and Her Indian Reform Legacy is a detailed account of the last six years of Jackson's life (1879-1885), when she struggled to promote the rights of American Indians displaced and dispossessed by the U.S. government. Valerie Sherer Mathes places Jackson's work within the larger nineteenth-century Indian rights movement and details her crusade of traveling, writing, and lobbying government officials. Jackson's efforts culminated in the publication of A Century of Dishonor, an indictment of the government's Indian policy, and the novel Ramona, a sympathetic portrayal of the plight of California's Mission Indians. Her influence was felt immediately in the actions of subsequent reform workers in the Women's National Indian Association, the Indian Rights Association, and the Lake Mohonk Conference.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: San Diego today is a vibrant and bustling coastal city, but it wasn't always so. The city's transformation from a rough-hewn border town and frontier port to a vital military center was marked by growing pains and political clashes. Civic highs and criminal lows have defined San Diego's rise through the nineteenth and twentieth centuries into a preeminent Sun Belt city. Historian Richard W. Crawford recalls the significant events and one-of-a-kind characters like benefactor Frank "Booze" Beyer, baseball hero Albert Spalding and novelist Scott O'Dell. Join Crawford for a collection that recounts how San Diego yesterday laid the foundation for the city's bright future.

Download or read book A Call for Reform written by Helen Hunt Jackson and published by University of Oklahoma Press. This book was released on 2015-10 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Journalist, novelist, and scholar Helen Hunt Jackson (1830–85) remains one of the most influential and popular writers on the struggles of American Indians. This volume collects for the first time seven of her most important articles, annotated and introduced by Jackson scholars Valerie Sherer Mathes and Phil Brigandi. Valuable as eyewitness accounts of Mission Indian life in Southern California in the 1880s, the articles also offer insight into Jackson’s career. The articles served as the basis for Jackson’s 1884 romantic novel, Ramona, still popular among Americans today. Jackson journeyed to Southern California in the 1880s to learn firsthand how Indians there lived. She found them in a demoralized state, beset by failed government policies and constantly threatened with losing their lands. The numerous articles and editorial responses she penned made her a leading voice in the fight for American Indian rights, a role she embraced wholeheartedly. As this collection also shows, Jackson’s fondness for Old California helped shape the region’s mythology and tourist culture. But her most important work was her influence in getting reservations set aside for the beleaguered Southern California tribes. Although her recommendations were not implemented until after her death, Helen Hunt Jackson’s stark and revealing portrait drew national attention to the effects of white encroachment on Indian lands and cultures in California and inspired generations of reformers who continued her legacy. This unprecedented collection offers fresh insight into the life and work of a well-known and influential writer and reformer.

Download or read book Who Would Have Thought It? written by María Ruiz de Burton and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2023-12-16 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: María Ruiz de Burton's novel 'Who Would Have Thought It?' is a groundbreaking work that delves into issues of race, identity, and social class in post-Civil War America. Written in the unique style of a roman à clef, the book challenges traditional literary conventions through its critique of American society and its exploration of the complexities of cultural hybridity. Set against the backdrop of a changing nation, the novel offers a powerful commentary on the experiences of Mexican Americans during a time of upheaval and transformation. With its intricate narrative structure and thought-provoking themes, 'Who Would Have Thought It?' stands as a testament to Ruiz de Burton's innovative approach to storytelling and her commitment to shedding light on the marginalized voices of her time. María Ruiz de Burton's own background as a Mexican American woman living in the 19th century undoubtedly influenced her decision to write a novel that confronts issues of prejudice and discrimination. Her unique perspective and personal experiences bring a sense of authenticity to the narrative, making 'Who Would Have Thought It?' a compelling and enlightening read for anyone interested in exploring the complexities of identity and social justice in historical fiction.

Book excerpt: “A propulsive, madcap story” (The New York Times) about a salaryman who decides to put his life up for sale in the classifieds section of a Tokyo newspaper after a botched suicide attempt. • "An outstanding writer not only of Japan, but of the world." —The Atlantic After salaryman Hanio Yamada puts his life up for sale, interested parties quickly come calling with increasingly bizarre requests. What follows is a madcap comedy of errors, involving a jealous husband, a drug-addled heiress, poisoned carrots—even a vampire. For someone who just wants to die, Hanio can't seem to catch a break, as he finds himself enmeshed in a continent-wide conspiracy that puts him in the cross hairs of both his own government and a powerful organized-crime syndicate. By turns wildly inventive, darkly comedic, and deeply surreal, in Life for Sale Yukio Mishima stunningly uses satire to explore the same dark themes that preoccupied him throughout his lifetime.

Download or read book Closed for Repairs written by Nancy Alonso and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Closed for Repairs is a series of eleven vignettes that depict Cuban ingenuity in the face of urban problems. Each solution is framed with humor and irony and gives a glimpse of life on the island today. In a clever fashion, Nancy Alonso shows us the spirit of resolve on the part of Cubans when faced with such issues as transportation problems, lack of water, and the shortage of consumer goods and construction materials caused by the embargo. Illuminating the endurance and resilience of the Cuban people, these stories will make you chuckle. Alonso's sly wit is compelling as she satirizes the bureaucracy-an element of her work that will resonate universally. Nancy Alonso is an award-winning short story writer with a background in biological science. She published Tirar la Primera Piedra (Casting the First Stone) in 1997 and Cerrado por Reparacion (Closed for Repairs) in 2002. Her stories have appeared in several anthologies in Cuba and abroad.
