Collection of Poems and Stories of Catherine Garland
This volume, covering three years from March 1924 to March 1927, comprises over 890 letters, of which about 350 are previously unpublished. In 1924 Lawrence is again in the USA. He and Frieda, with his disciple the Honourable Dorothy Brett, return to Taos, New Mexico where Frieda soon becomes the owner of a ranch, Kiowa. The tensions among them contribute to Lawrence's falling dangerously ill. He recovers at Kiowa; he and Frieda go to England and Germany in Autumn 1925; they then settle in Italy, where - except for his final visit the next summer to the Midlands - they remain. After leaving the USA he writes short and long stories with European settings, book reviews, and the first two versions of Lady Chatterley's Lover. It is a productive period, but Lawrence's health becomes a serious concern. The volume provides annotation identifying persons and allusions, and includes a biographical introduction.
"God's Messenger is a new biography of the North German missionary Rev. J. F. Riemenschneider, who settled in the Taranaki region in the first half of the nineteenth century. The book places him into the historical and social context, which not only illuminates his life and work, but throws new light on aspects of nineteenth century New Zealand history. The book outlines Riemenschneider’s upbringing in North Germany, his arrival in New Zealand and setting up of a missionary station in Taranaki, rifts between the missionary and his people, his exile from Taranaki and setting up in Otago." --Publisher.

Offering speculation upon the creation of future educational possibilities for all, this book stories both an initial event leading to a sixteen-year-old student’s withdrawal from a Further Education college on her first day, and an imaginary second chance to support her at university ten years later. Animating potential for intensities and becoming in writing, this work exemplifies different approaches to writing, which foster inquiry and speculation to trouble academic constraints capable of acting as a barrier to so many. Writing in counterpoint to the traditional map of the academic thesis, literature, (non)methodologies and ethics are imbricated in this book, which readers are invited to read in non-linear ways, choosing from multiple entryways and exits. This book will be of particular interest to undergraduate and postgraduate students, and doctoral supervisors, in Education, as well as practitioners involved in supporting students’ writing. Perhaps, most crucially, the book will provoke entry into, provocations within and research-creative inventions that extend the continuing emergence of post qualitative inquiry.
We are defined by our relationships. From seven-second meetings with strangers to lifelong bonds among family members, relationships nurture us, challenge us, and teach us not to take ourselves so seriously. Seedlings: Stories of Relationships pays tribute to those connections, honoring the friends, neighbors, spouses, coworkers, siblings, and passing acquaintances who bring meaning to our lives. You'll meet: Big Al, who has to enlist the help of an ex-lover when he's imprisoned by childproof locks. Catherine the dental hygienist, who eases her patients' anxiety through humor and flattery. Three-year-old Casey, who proposes a noble sacrifice that will allow her to spend more time with her daddy. Some of the stories in this collection are fictionalized; others recount real-life happenings just as they occurred. All serve as entertaining reminders to treasure the people who share our journeys.
