Book excerpt: The country is in turmoil! King Henry VIII wants a new queen, the Reformers are gaining in popularity, and most significantly, the illegal English Bible is being smuggled into the country and read by the common man! It is considered heresy to own or even read the Bible and the sentence is burning at the stake. Despite the turmoil, Kristina Monroe has the additional dilemma of finding her mother's ruby brooch that has been stolen. With the help of the very mysterious Patrick O'Niel she might be able to recover it, but will it be in time to save her family from the heretic hunters that secretly comb the country?EXERPT from Book:Patrick O'Niel was just rounding a corner on horseback when he spotted a carriage ahead of him down the street. He reigned in and watched as it pulled to a stop in front of The Black Boar and the only occupant disembarked. He smiled to himself and started his horse forward as he recognized Kristina. She was almost to the door of the shop when O'Niel caught up with her and called her name. Kristina turned and smiled immediately, "Mr. O'Niel! How do you do?" She looked up at him on his horse, "Are you on your way somewhere?" She really had a beautiful smile. "Hello, Miss Monroe. Actually, I was just going to ride over to Longbury Manor," he answered her. "Oh? Do you want to see my father about something?" Her voice was suspicious. Patrick dismounted as she spoke and walked the few steps to stand beside her, "Well, someday but today I just wanted to talk to his daughter." Kristina laughed and said, "You must mean Rochelle! But she is very busy today--she's expecting a visitor." Patrick's expression suddenly changed and his eyes darkened. He asked. "Is Rochelle's visitor John Drummond?" Kristina watched his face and answered slowly, "Yes, it is Mr. Drummond." Then she added, "Is there something you know about him that we don't know?" Patrick grimly thought that when Rochelle married John Drummond, he would be a member of the family which would affect Kristina as well as Rochelle. He thought a moment, and looking at Kristina's questioning face said, "Do you have the time to go for a walk?" Completely amazed and somewhat worried, Kristina said, "Of course!" She forgot about Thomas and her need to hurry back to him. Patrick turned in the direction of the road that led out of town and Kristina walked beside him. There were a few people close by and some of them glanced their way so Patrick talked about the lovely spring and that shipping demands would soon increase. They were walking away from the center of town which was a single long line of shops with houses and yards behind them. When there were no more people around Kristina waited expectantly for a change of subject and Patrick did not disappoint her. He asked rather solemnly, "Miss Monroe, does your sister really want to marry John Drummond?" Kristina was very surprised, "Yes, I think she does. She acts rather silly about it sometimes." She smiled as she thought of her elder sister. Patrick continued with his questions, "But does she want to marry Mr. Drummond or does she just want to get married?" Kristina stopped to stare at him, "What kind of a question is that?" She considered that he must know something and asked with worry, "What is it?" Patrick took Kristina's elbow so they could continue walking. He said, "I don't know how to tell you this other than to just tell you, but I believe that Mr. Drummond is not to be trusted." Kristina was trying to look at his face as they walked, "What do you mean?" She was getting more worried by the minute. Patrick answered her, "He's just not to be trusted. He does, well, secret things, and has bad friends." Kristina replied in a raised voice, "Secret things! You do secret things! And who are his bad friends?"Patrick eyed her warily and tried to explain, "Kristina, there are good secret things and bad secret things. I try to do good secret things..."

Book excerpt: Set in New England, The Unforeseen follows the consequences of the brutal Civil War to the lives of ordinary women through three generations of intermarried families. No one among the antislavery advocates in New England foresaw the sweeping changes that the long, brutal Civil War would bring to their towns and families. In Beverly, Massachusetts, the magnitude of the war tears family life apart, forcing many to endure the absence and deaths of fathers, fiancs, brothers, uncles, cousins, and nephews. Unmarried women are forced to find work in factories or as servants and farm helpor else face miserable poverty. Jenny Proctor Hutchins, nineteen when the war breaks out in 1861, withstands catastrophic losses. She must adapt to the strangeness of a new city and of large-scale production, to boardinghouse living, and to learning new skills on steam-driven sewing machines. Friends and family come to rely on Jennys resourcefulness as an herbal healer, and after a hard struggle, she forges a satisfying new life for herself. Still, Jenny realizes that postwar society in the Northeast is deeply corrupt. Victory has poisoned the financial system, just as defeat made the South wretched. With declining northern support for the freed people, Jenny wonders why the war was fought with these results.

Book Synopsis Refashioning "knights and Ladies Gentle Deeds" by : Paul R. Rovang
Download or read book Refashioning "knights and Ladies Gentle Deeds" written by Paul R. Rovang and published by Fairleigh Dickinson Univ Press. This book was released on 1996 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While not neglecting the question of direct borrowings, author Paul Rovang applies a theory of intertextuality to probe how the poet responded to the chivalric romance themes, conventions, materials, and structures which he encountered in the Morte Darthur. Both works are treated not as monoliths, but as links in a network of texts and other cultural phenomena relating to chivalry. In this way, a fuller sense is given not only of how vitally connected the two works are, but of how Spenser "refashioned" the transmitted ideals and symbols of Arthurian knighthood for his own age.

Book excerpt: The poisoned will and a fog set upon the reaches were a time to war and what may come of the fairer races. Dwarven strongholds and through the southern lands of the pixie where all their magic is set an underground kingdom could this be to a single grain of sand. The great tree will grow again to a time when men were little and far between and the women left to carry the burden of this war. I do not remember when the tree was whole or when it stood so tall but here to see it cleaved at the trunk and its people like the fruit left to rot in the colder sands. I don't remember many things as I used to or the way was the color in that little girl's hair yet there she stood waiting for me to know how this all would play out. My people, this fruit, or anything left for this rotten world is man, the short ones who live in the east and make money on the backs of the proud native. Death has all that is time left to be and this covering is slow to find what we really must become.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Their mother had died when Jackie had been born, so there had been no one but Aunt Martha to take charge of them when the call to arms had taken their father from them. Mrs. Mead, who was a childless widow, kept a greengrocer's shop in a dingy street in Bristol; and, as she took lodgers, she had no room to spare her little nephews but an attic. From the boys' attic, which was at the back of the house, was a view of the river and the backs of the houses on the opposite bank — not a very cheering view for eyes accustomed to pretty wooded scenery. "Well," Bob said, "I must be going. Don't cry any more, Jackie. There's nothing to be afraid of up here, and it's quite light now I've drawn up the blind. You can lie and watch the moon and stars. I daresay father's watching them too, out in the trenches ...FROM THE BOOKS.
