Lord, Stand By Me
LORD, STAND BY ME This book is more like a series of novellas, than a continuous novel; for it is the strange recorded moments of an eight year old child remembering tales she overheard her adult relatives, and their friends tell of hardships, rape murder, and other horrific crimes that occurred in the early forties in the deep South.
Laura's Secret
Keith Masterson, who has been Beth Barry's boyfriend since the sixth grade, decides that he wants to end their relationship. Not sure how to end it, he goes to Jana Morgan for help.
In Mixed Company
In Mixed Company explores taverns as colonial public space and how men and women of diverse backgrounds � Native and newcomer, privileged and labouring, white and non-white � negotiated a place for themselves within them. The stories that emerge unsettle comfortable certainties about who belonged where in colonial society. Colonial taverns were places where labourers enjoyed libations with wealthy Aboriginal traders like Captain Thomas, who also treated a Scotsman to a small bowl of punch; where white soldiers rubbed shoulders with black colonists out to celebrate Emancipation Day; where English ladies and their small children sought refuge for a night. The records of the past tell stories of time spent in mixed company but also of the myriad, unequal ways that colonists found room in taverns and a place in Upper Canadian culture and society. Reconstructed from tavern-keepers' accounts, court records, diaries, travelogues, and letters, In Mixed Company is essential reading for tavern aficionados and anyone interested in the history of gender, race, and culture in Canadian or colonial society.
