Pretty Good for a Girl
The first book devoted entirely to women in bluegrass, Pretty Good for a Girl documents the lives of more than seventy women whose vibrant contributions to the development of bluegrass have been, for the most part, overlooked. Accessibly written and organized by decade, the book begins with Sally Ann Forrester, who played accordion and sang with Bill Monroe's Blue Grass Boys from 1943 to 1946, and continues into the present with artists such as Alison Krauss, Rhonda Vincent, and the Dixie Chicks. Drawing from extensive interviews, well-known banjoist Murphy Hicks Henry gives voice to women performers and innovators throughout bluegrass's history, including such pioneers as Bessie Lee Mauldin, Wilma Lee Cooper, and Roni and Donna Stoneman; family bands including the Lewises, Whites, and McLains; and later pathbreaking performers such as the Buffalo Gals and other all-girl bands, Laurie Lewis, Lynn Morris, Missy Raines, and many others.
Henry, Black Lightning and Murphy’S Law
This adventure continues the episodes of Henry Wilson Worthington in the book "Henry, Black Lightning and the Rubber Band" (may be ordered on Amazon or direct from the Author with Autograph in form requested). It involves the United States' Super Secret Agency, the Department of Extraordinary and Super natural Events, known as "DESE" and takes place in Greenwich, CT, San Francisco, Washington, DC and deals with Fort Knox gold theft. The previous adventures dealt with evil witches, demons, black magic, voodoo and more. This earlier assignment ended in success. The continuation of this story starts where the last escapade ended and starts soon after Henry returns home. It is as though 17 year old Henry really has no time to rest before this next episode begins with an extraordinary surprise message from Walter Murphy and the mystery follows. www.Henryadventures.com
Irish Nationalism in Canada
According to conventional historical wisdom, Irish nationalism in Canada was a marginal phenomenon - overshadowed by the more powerful movement in the United States and eclipsed in Canada by the Orange Order. The nine contributors in this book argue otherwise - and in doing so make a major and original contribution to our understanding of the Irish experience in Canada and the place of Irish-Canadian nationalism within an international context. Focusing on the period 1820 to 1920, they examine political, religious, and cultural expressions of Irish-Canadian nationalism as it responded to Irish events and Canadian politics. They also look at tensions within the movement between those who argu...

Tilting at Windmills
Mark had never thought of retiring. Barristers don’t retire. However, his 64th birthday was fast approaching. ‘When I’m 64’ and all that, and, beneath the wig and gown, he had always had a desire to write. Time was running out. It’s now or never. He – rather he and his wife, Helen – decided they would take a year out. Like their children had, only later. They quickly ruled out the West of Ireland and the Wild Atlantic Way. For obvious reasons. And opted instead for a pueblo blanco in Andalucía. Mark could write his bestseller there. A white-washed house in a white-washed village in the mountains of Andalucía. What more could an aspiring author want? He lost no time in getting...
