Cuban-Jewish Journeys
Between ten and fifteen thousand persons of Cuban-Jewish heritage currently live in Miami. Until now, however, this vibrant community and its unique traditions have, to a large extent, escaped the notice of ethnographers, historians, and other scholars. In Cuban-Jewish Journeys, Caroline Bettinger-López remedies that neglect with an engaging, in-depth look at a people whose rich mix of cultures confounds typical ethnic images. The author begins by investigating the history and development of the Cuban-Jewish community, tracing its origins back to Jewish enclaves in Eastern Europe, Russia, and the Mediterranean. She explores how these people came to Cuba in the first half of the twentieth ce...

In Through the Lens of the City: NEA Photography Surveys of the 1970s, Mark Rice brings to light this long-neglected photographic endeavor. From 1976 to 1981, the NEA supported more than seventy projects that examined a wide range of people and places in America. Artists involved included such well known photographers as Bruce Davidson, Lee Friedlander, and Joel Meyerowitz and many photographers who became widely known after their work with the surveys, such as Robert Adams, Joe Deal, Terry Evans, and Wendy Ewald.

Texas Compound
The penal system’s escalating growth is costing more and more money to support as time goes by. This book is both fact and fiction that will ease the dollar support and return the convict back into a competitive member of society. With an approximately two billion dollar budget in 1997 to keep incarcerated one hundred forty thousand inmates with a capacity of one hundred forty seven thousand beds, it is apparent that new facilities need to be provided. The cost and growth goes on. Let’s return these convicts to society better suited to fit in for less money. A system must be provided to let the inmate step back into society equal to his non-incarcerated peers. The fiction and facts between these two covers may be a way to achieve that goal.
