Download or read book Buffalo Music written by Tracey Fern and published by Houghton Mifflin Harcourt. This book was released on 2008-05-19 with total page 43 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Once, a long, long ago, buffalo roamed the West, filling the plains and canyons with the music of their thundering hooves and huffing breath. Then hunters came and destroyed nearly all of them. But buffalo are stubborn, ornery creatures, and though the herds were gone, a few lone calves lingered. If the buffalo were to survive as a species, however, they needed the help of someone just as feisty as they were. Inspired by the work of Mary Ann Goodnight, a pioneer credited with forming one of the first captive buffalo herds in the 1800s, this is the beautifully told and warmly illustrated tale of one woman's quest to save what otherwise would have been lost forever.

Download or read book Love Songs written by Ted Gioia and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2015-01-14 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The love song is timeless. From its beginnings, it has been shaped by bohemians and renegades, slaves and oppressed minorities, prostitutes, immigrants and other excluded groups. But what do we really know about the origins of these intimate expressions of the heart? And how have our changing perceptions about topics such as sexuality and gender roles changed our attitudes towards these songs? In Love Songs: The Hidden History, Ted Gioia uncovers the unexplored story of the love song for the first time. Drawing on two decades of research, Gioia presents the full range of love songs, from the fertility rites of ancient cultures to the sexualized YouTube videos of the present day. The book traces the battles over each new insurgency in the music of love--whether spurred by wandering scholars of medieval days or by four lads from Liverpool in more recent times. In these pages, Gioia reveals that the tenderest music has, in different eras, driven many of the most heated cultural conflicts, and how the humble love song has played a key role in expanding the sphere of individualism and personal autonomy in societies around the world. Gioia forefronts the conflicts, controversies, and the battles over censorship and suppression spurred by such music, revealing the outsiders and marginalized groups that have played a decisive role in shaping our songs of romance and courtship, and the ways their innovations have led to reprisals and strife. And he describes the surprising paths by which the love song has triumphed over these obstacles, and emerged as the dominant form of musical expression in modern society.

Download or read book Buffalo Song written by Joseph Bruchac and published by Lee & Low Books. This book was released on 2014 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Walking Coyote placed his cheek against the frightened buffalo calf's side and sang softly. Lone survivor of a herd slaughtered by white hunters, the calf was one of several buffalo orphans Walking Coyote had adopted and was raising on the Flathead Reservation in Montana. For thousands of years massive herds of buffalo roamed across much of North America, but by the 1870s fewer than fifteen hundred animals remained. Hunted to the brink of extinction, the buffalo would have vanished if not for the diligent care of Walking Coyote and his family. Here is the inspiring story of the first efforts to save the buffalo, an animal sacred to Native Americans and a powerful symbol of the American west. From the foresight and dedication of individuals like Walking Coyote came the eventual survival of these majestic animals, one of the great success stories of endangered species rescue in United States history.

Download or read book City on the Lake written by Mark Goldman and published by Prometheus Books. This book was released on 2010-10-29 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For more than a hundred years, Buffalo was one of the world''s great industrial cities. Its grand office buildings and stately mansions overlooked a metropolis that was the eleventh largest industrial center in the United States, the third largest producer of steel, and the largest inland port. Its diverse ethnic heritage, represented by sizable enclaves of Irish, Italians, Poles, Jews, Germans, and African-Americans, gave the city a vibrant sense of community.But by the early 1970''s, all of that had changed. Unrest in the inner city had led to riots; student protests had shut down the city''s largest university; and the economy in Buffalo, as in all the "Rust Belt" cities, was crumbling as the nation entered the postindustrial age. The population was dropping, too, dramatically altering the streets and neighborhoods where the people of this aging metropolis had lived for generations. Like the Jerusalem of Jeremiah''s Lamentations, Buffalo was a dying city whose gates were desolate and whose people were embittered.It is here that Mark Goldman''s City on the Lake takes up its story. Goldman analyzes the factors that contributed to the city''s decline and describes the efforts of its leaders and citizens to restore Buffalo to its former vitality. Goldman presents the facts - like the immigration patterns in Old Buffalo and the intricate details of the city''s 1976 desegregation case - but he also introduces us to the people of Buffalo and puts the city''s history into context by interweaving it with the colorful ethnic patchwork of its day-to-day life.By the end of this careful analysis, Goldman''s narrative is one of hope. The 1980s witnessed the slow but sure calming of ethnic strife, a new mandate for quality education, and the revitalization of downtown. Goldman believes that the grandeur of Buffalo''s past will be recaptured and that Buffalonians are dedicated to building "new gates for the old city."

Download or read book Buffalo Gals, Won't You Come Out Tonight written by Ursula K. Le Guin and published by Pomegranate Communications. This book was released on 1994 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this intriguing tale (not for children), storyteller extraordinaire Ursula K. Le Guin explores the magic of animals. Her animal characters -- from the irreverent trickster Coyote to the wise matriarch Grandmother Spider -- seem like people to us, just as they do to the little girl who finds herself living among them. We learn, with the girl, that these "Old People" once lived freely on the earth but now must maintain their lifeways carefully alongside the "New People" -- humans. Susan Seddon Boulet chose this tale to illustrate, completing twenty works for its publication. They are extremely effective in bringing Le Guin's characters to life, imbuing them, of course, with Boulet's singular vision of the otherworldly realms occupied by animal spirits. This book is a must for any serious collector of Boulet art.

This book was released on 2021-08-06 with total page 231 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The sweetest song comes from a forgiving heart. —Whinburg Township Amish proverb The summer Simon Yoder broke her heart was the summer Cora Swarey lost her ability to hear the music in Colorado’s high country. She thought God had brought them together, but when Simon dropped her to pursue an Englisch woman, she wondered how she’d ever trust again. Yes, he came back asking forgiveness, and she gave it because that was what she’d been taught. But she never forgot. It was almost a relief to know she’d never see him again. Until she is invited to a wedding in Whinburg Township, Pennsylvania. Cora is the only woman Simon Yoder has ever wanted, but because of his own pride and conceit, she is out of his reach forever. So at his aunt’s wedding, it’s a more than a shock to see his biggest regret walk in with the other young women. God may be giving him another chance, but he’s pretty certain Cora won’t. Words don’t hold much value, so he lays out a plan of action. He knows that music is the key. Can he help her find the music again? And if he succeeds, how can he show her that she’s the one who makes his heart sing? The Sweetest Song is the ninth novel in the Whinburg Township Amish series. Books 7-9 can be read as standalones, and have a thread of family and friendship running through them all. No strong language, just a loving kiss and a guaranteed happily ever after. If you like books by Samantha Price, Amy Lillard, or Grace Lewis, you’re in the right place. Enjoy!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Love Song to the Plains is a lyric salute to the earth and sky and people who made the history of the Great Plains by the region's incomparable historian, Mari Sandoz. It is a story of men and women of many hues—courageous, violent, indomitable, foolish—their legends, failures, and achievements: of explorers and fur trappers and missionaries; of soldiers and army posts and Indian fighting; of California-bound emigrants who stopped off to become settlers; of cattlemen and bad men, boomers and land speculators, and their feuds and rivalries. Above all, this is a portrait of the true Plainsman, the man or woman who can stand to have the horizon far off and every day, every year, a gamble.

Book excerpt: The Sheppards were an old English family who settled in New England late in the seventeenth century—three brothers, one of which, according to ye olden tyme records, planted the elm trees in front of the meeting house on Dorchester hill; these trees, at the age of sixty or seventy years, being cut down by the British during the Revolutionary War.
