Mary Casal was the pen name of Ruth Fuller Field (1864-1935), a lesbian artist, teacher and entrepreneur. The youngest of nine children, she was born Ruth White Fuller, in Deerfield, Massachusetts, the daughter of musician Joseph Fuller and his wife Lydia, and the niece of painter George Fuller. Field's memoir recounts her life story: her journey of self-discovery and loving relationships with women, her tomboy childhood and instances of sexual abuse at the hands of men, her failed marriage and her contact with the lesbian community in the late 19th and early 20th century. Touching and evocative, THE STONE WALL is a window into an astonishing life.
On the night of November 9, 1989, massive crowds surged toward the Berlin Wall, drawn by an announcement that caught the world by surprise: East Germans could now move freely to the West.

In The Collapse, prize-winning historian Mary Elise Sarotte reveals how a perfect storm of decisions made by daring underground revolutionaries, disgruntled Stasi officers, and dictatorial party boss...

The PREEN FAMILY HISTORY STUDY GROUP exists to research the family. It organises an Annual Reunion and is preparing a History of the Preen Family in four volumes. DNA analysis has shown that the Preen Family is divided into three groups, each with a common ancestor in the seventeenth century. Volume One will discuss the early history of the family and then Volumes Two to Four will each cover one of the three groups. This book is Volume Four describing the Bridgnorth Group. The Bridgnorth Group are descended from Frank and Fanny Preen who lived in Mill Street Bridgnorth in the 1640s and the book traces their descendants as they spread throughout the West Midlands and later throughout the world. It ends with the families who appeared in the 1911 census.
Examines the translation of classical Hollywood into Disneys feature films from a Deleuzian perspectiveSpecial Affects retells the emergence of Disney animation and classical Hollywood cinema from the perspective of affect and the embodied modes of generating affection. The emergence of these media enables new modes of perception that create aspecial sensations of wonder, astonishment, marvel and the fantastic. Such affections subsequently become mined by consumer industries for profit, thereby explaining the connection between media and consumerism that today seems inherent to the culture industry. Such modes and their affections are also translated into ideology, as American culture seeks ...
