Josh

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Ross, Eileen, PUBLISHER: Royal Fireworks Publishing Company, Colorado, . Orphaned eleven-year-old Josh and his five-year-old sister Maribelle have come from St. Louis to a small farming town to live with childless Aunt Abigail and Uncle Caleb. Josh brings with him the shame of his father's past, and his own guilt that he is ashamed of the father he feels he is supposed to love. Josh also fears that someone will find out about his father and think that he, Josh, will grow up to be just like him. Inside, Josh wonders if he will. Josh dearly loves little Maribelle from whose innocence and love he draws strength. Uncle Caleb expects hard work and offers little praise. Aunt Abigail is all kindness. He wants to send the children to a foundling home in Cheyenne. She points out that it is not Christian to punish the children for their father's deed. Widow McClendon, intelligent, respected and obviously once very beautiful, employs Josh to do "chores." He enjoys being around her. She speaks with him, understands him, and because she, too, has a secret--she is the sister of the town's historic, infamous outlaw she knowingly counsels him about freedom from family guilt. Josh's days are filled with thinking his every action is universally scrutinized, trying to please his uncle on the farm and his teacher in school, and dealing with the aggressive school bully, Harlow. Josh's mettle and kind spirit are apparent throughout the story: his concern for his sister's well-being, his rescue of a puppy from certain death by freezing in the river, his concern for sick Uncle Caleb and his ability to handle both Caleb's farm chores and his own, his rescue of Harlow from a raging fire. While sitting with sleeping, sick Caleb one night, Josh writes to him from hisheart about his feelings. Later, unable to find time to complete a homework assignment for Thanksgiving, he submits the letter--a letter of hope to God from a child. All is resolved in time for Thanksgiving. Josh's "paper" is read at the town meeting as the best assignment where the teacher deems his work the village's Thanksgiving theme--looking back on the blessings of the past year and ahead to blessings which await us. Uncle Caleb recants: the children can stay. Harlow extends a hand of friendship. This is a superbly crafted story balancing action and contemplation.

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Todd, George / Watson-Guptill, PUBLISHER: Amphoto Books, In Elements of Color Photography a veteran photographer distills the knowledge and experience he gained over 30 years as a writer, teacher, and practicing photographer to show readers how he created dozens of dazzling color images from his own portfolio. Ranging from the purely abstract and still life to architecture, landscapes, and people, George Todd's photographs demonstrate that strongly contrasting forms and shadows need not be confined to classic black-and-white photography. Through clear step-by-step illustrations, Todd shows how color photography can become an effective composition tool, as much of a fine art form as monochrome--and the photos gain an added dimension with the bold and inventive use of color. Plus, this anthology features dazzling, full-color examples of Todd's photographic techniques in action.

Ethiopia: The Last Two Frontiers

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Markakis, John, PUBLISHER: James Currey, Provides the gist of one scholar's knowledge of this country acquired over several decades. The author of numerous works on Ethiopia, Markakis presents here an overarching, concise historical profile of a momentous effort to integrate a multicultural empire into a modern nation state. The concept of nation state formation provides the analytical framework within which this process unfolds and the changes of direction it takes under different regimes, as well as a standard for assessing its progress and shortcomings at each stage. Over a century old, the process is still far from completion and its ultimate success is far from certain. In the author's view, there are two major obstacles that need to be overcome, two frontiers that need to be crossed to reach the desired goal. The first is the monopoly of power inherited from the empire builders and zealously guarded ever since by a ruling class of Abyssinian origin. The descendants of the people subjugated by the empire builders remain excluded from power, a handicap that breeds political instability and violent conflict. The second frontier is the arid lowlands on the margins of the state, where the process of integration has not yet reached, and where resistance to it is greatest. Until this frontier is crossed, the Ethiopian state will not have the secure borders that a mature nation state requires. John Markakis is a political historian who has devoted a professional lifetime to the study of Ethiopia and its neighbors in the Horn of Africa. He has published several books and many articles on this area.
