A Foot in the Door
"A newspaperman once wrote of Lucile Mc Donald, "She can secure and absorb more information per minute than any other newspaper representative we have ever met in half a century." A remarkably frank, refreshing reminiscence, A Foot in the Door details the life and work of a true journalistic pioneer. At a time when a woman's role in newspapers was limited mostly to the society page, Mc Donald began a remarkable seventy-five-year career as a noted journalist, historian, and author of thirty-four books." "A Foot in the Door is not only the story of a pioneering American woman journalist, it is also the tale of a great adventure to South America, the Middle East, Alaska, and virtually every outback locale in the Pacific Northwest, written by a woman who allowed no obstacle to stand in the way of finding a good story."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Jewels and Gems
Jewels and Gems is a children s book written with the aim of entertaining and inspiring children in the enchanting world of gems and precious stones. A wonderful book full of lovely pictures and interesting text, Jewels and Gems is a great alternative to normal bedtime reading and constitutes a wonderful addition to any collection of antiquarian children s literature. Lucile Saunders McDonald (1898 - 1992) was journalist, historian and author of children's books, most famous for Dick and the Spice Cupboard and The Giant with Four Arms. She was the first woman on a New York City writing desk and the first woman copy editor in the Pacific Northwest, who co-founded the Pacific Northwest Writers Association. This scarce antiquarian book has been chosen for modern republican due to its literary value, and is republished here with pride complete with a new introduction to the topic."
