Don't Fool Yourself
"Dell O'Dell (1897-1962) was one of the most successful magicians of the 20th century. From circus strongwoman to an exercise expert to a slapstick magician, Dell mastered several careers before finding her niche in comedy magic with rhyming patter. She flourished in almost every venue American had to offer: nightclubs, circus, vaudeville, burlesque, revues, television, and more. Along with her husband Charles Carrer (1898-1971), a spectacular juggler, she worked tirelessly to promote herself and to stay continuously booked for thirty years. As a pioneering woman in the field, she proved that a woman did not have to be the wife or daughter of a well-known magician to succeed"--Dust jacket, back.

Victorian Secrecy
Whether commercial, personal, political, professional, or spiritual, knowledge was capital for the Victorians in their ongoing project of constructing a modern information-based society. Victorian Secrecy explores the myriad ways in which knowledge was both zealously accumulated and jealously guarded by individuals, institutions, and government entities in Victorian Britain. Offering a wide variety of critical approaches and disciplinary perspectives, the contributors examine secretive actors with respect to a broad range of subjects, including the narrator in Tess of the d'Urbervilles, John Henry Newman's autobiographical novel Loss and Gain, Richard Dadd's The Fairy Feller's Masterstroke, modes of detection in Bleak House, the secret history of Harriet Martineau's role in the repeal of the Corn Law, and Victorian stage magicians. Taken together, the essays provide a richly textured account of which modes of hiding and revealing articulate secrets in Victorian literature and culture; how social relations are formed and reformed in relationship to secrecy; and what was at stake individually, aesthetically, and culturally in the Victorians' clandestine activities.
Teaching Victorian Literature in the Twenty-First Century
This edited collection offers undergraduate Literature instructors a guide to the pedagogy and teaching of Victorian literature in liberal arts classrooms. With numerous essays focused on thematic course design, this volume reflects the increasingly interdisciplinary nature of the literature classroom. A section on genre provides suggestions on approaching individual works and discussing their influence on production of texts. Sections on digital humanities and “out of the classroom” approaches to Victorian literature reflect current practices and developing trends. The concluding section offers three different versions of an “ideal” course, each of which shows how thematic, disciplinary, genre, and technological strands may be woven together in meaningful ways. Professors of introductory literature courses aimed at non-English majors to advanced seminars for majors will find accessible and innovative course ideas supplemented with a variety of versatile teaching materials, including syllabi, assignments, and in-class activities.

Dont be surprised if you find yourself smiling as you read. Secondly, this book is not only for McKnighters. This book is an excellent read with much universal application. Wherever you are from you will be able to read this book and reflect on the area in which you grew up and realize that you had so much in common with McKnight. This is especially true when it came to how you were raised back in the day. Purchase this book and be informed and entertained at the same time.
