The American Literature Scholar in the Digital Age
"By casting the collection explicitly as an outreach to the larger community of Americanists---not primarily those who self-identify as 'digital scholars'---Earhart and Jewell have made an important choice, and one that will likely make this a landmark publication." ---Andrew Stauffer, University of Virginia The American Literature Scholar in the Digital Age, which features a wide range of practitioner-scholars, is the first of its kind: a gathering of people who are expert in American literary studies and in digital technologies, scholars uniquely able to draw from experience with building digital resources and to provide theoretical commentary on how the transformation to new technologies ...

Missing: Believed Killed
The uncertain fates of Amelia Earhart, Amy Johnson and Glenn Miller have fascinated readers and aviation historians ever since they disappeared. Even today, more than half a century after their final flights, what happened to them is still the subject of speculation, conspiracy theory and controversy. This has prompted Roy Conyers Nesbit to reinvestigate their stories and to write this perceptive, level-headed and gripping study. Using testimony from new witnesses and hitherto undisclosed public records, he seeks to explain why they were reported missing: believed killed. He describes why American aviatrix Amelia Earhart vanished in the Pacific on her round-the-world flight in 1937, what cau...
Amelia Earhart
Using simple language that beginning readers can understand, this lively, inspiring, and believable biography looks at the childhood of Amelia Earhart. Illustrated throughout.
Amelia Earhart
She died mysteriously before she was forty. Yet in the last decade of her life Amelia Earhart soared from obscurity to fame as the best-known female aviator in the world. She set record after record—among them, the first trans-Atlantic solo flight by a woman, a flight that launched Earhart on a double career as a fighter for women's rights and a tireless crusader for commercial air travel. Doris L. Rich's exhaustively researched biography downplays the “What Happened to Amelia Earhart?” myth by disclosing who Amelia Earhart really was: a woman of three centuries, born in the nineteenth, pioneering in the twentieth, and advocating ideals and dreams relevant to the twenty-first.
Meet Amelia Earhart
If you are looking for an inspirational, true-life hero to introduce your children to, Amelia Earhart is definitely a good choice! For girls, Amelia played a big role in proving to all of humanity that girls are just as smart and just as capable as boys are. "Meet Amelia Earhart" was written for children age 8 and up (Grade 3 & up). With many colorful illustrations, this biography focuses on how Amelia Earhart shows us all how seemingly unreachable “dreams” can be accomplished if you are willing to keep working hard until you reach whatever goal you have set in front of you. Amelia Earhart was the first woman to ever fly an airplane across the Atlantic ocean. She disappeared doing something even more courageous – attempting to be the first woman to fly around the world. For boys, this is a great way to teach them that girls add just as much value to the world as boys do. Both boys and girls can learn the value of respecting each other for hard work and determination and that gender has little to do with whether or not one is successful in life.
