A Place to Call Home
The two young sisters overheard a conversation between their parents as they discussed leaving Indiana for some unknown place called Arkansas. Carrie was filled with fear and apprehension, while Lillie was excited about the prospect of a new adventure. Neither of them knew what adventures and trials lay ahead for them as they traveled on a wagon train crossed a great river on a ferry and built a new life in a distant place. These adventures would prepare them for greater hardships later in life. Benjamin and Salina Street were well past fifty years of age when they left Indiana, traveled by wagon train and carved out a new life when they homesteaded land in north Arkansas as the nineteenth century was drawing to a close. This is their story.
Basic Concepts of Emotional Intelligence
Contemplate the last snapshots of Gary and Mary Jane Chauncey, a couple totally committed to their eleven-year-old girl Andrea, who was bound to a wheelchair by cerebral paralysis. The Chauncey family was travelers on an Amtrak train that collided with a stream after a canal boat hit and debilitated a railroad span in Louisiana's narrows country. Thinking first about their little girl, the couple made an honest effort to save Andrea as water raced into the sinking train; some way or another they figured out how to push Andrea through a window to rescuers. Then, at that point, as the vehicle sank underneath the water, they perished. Andrea's story, of guardians whose last gallant demonstratio...
A Political Biography of Richard Steele
Richard Steele is famous as an early writer of sentimental drama and as half of the writing team, Addison and Steele. He is notable both for the indirect propaganda he developed with Addison and for the open partisanship of his own periodicals. He wrote extensively about responsible economics but was famously irresponsible in his own affairs.
Melungeons
Most of us probably think of America as being settled by British, Protestant colonists who fought the Indians, tamed the wilderness, and brought "democracy"-or at least a representative republic-to North America. To the contrary, Elizabeth Caldwell Hirschman's research indicates the earliest settlers were of Mediterranean extraction, and of a Jewish or Muslim religious persuasion. Sometimes called "Melungeons," these early settlers were among the earliest nonnative "Americans" to live in the Carolinas, Tennessee, Kentucky, Virginia, and West Virginia. For fear of discrimination-since Muslims, Jews, "Indians," and other "persons of color" were often disenfranchised and abused-the Melungeons were reticent regarding their heritage. In fact, over time, many of the Melungeons themselves "forgot" where they came from. Hence, today, the Melungeons remain the "last lost tribe in America," even to themselves. Yet, Hirschman, supported by DNA testing, genealogies, and a variety of historical documents, suggests that the Melungeons included such notable early Americans as Daniel Boone, John Sevier, Abraham Lincoln, Jefferson Davis, and Andrew Jackson. Once lost, but now, forgotten no more.
