My Inspirational Woman
Who inspires us? Students from The Young Women's Leadership School in the Bronx answer this question in this compelling collection of stories. From the student-written introduction: Every one of us has someone. That someone is a person who moves you to do your best. For example, that someone may help you win a math contest or a spelling bee. There are those who motivate us to follow the will of doing right. As TYWLS students, we selected that someone; we selected someone who we can call Wonder Woman. A Wonder Woman is someone who guides you, inspires you to be a better person, and tries to protect you from harm. These are the qualities that we encountered throughout our time with them.
From Under Iron Eyelids
Contrary to popular belief the Minie ball was not used by either side during America’s Civil War. Instead infantry soldiers fired the Harpers Ferry bullet, a hollow based, cylindro-conical bullet designed by acting master armorer James Henry Burton. His reward was to be driven from his position by partisan politics and into the lap of Great Britain where he helped to establish the Royal Small Arms Factory at Enfield. Based heavily on Burton’s own papers, this book explains the problems and solutions to the armory production of small arms. A complete inventory of machine tools used to manufacture the Springfield rifled musket is listed in an appendix along with details and diagrams of three patents awarded to Burton.
