Selected Tales

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Grimm, Jacob Ludwig Carl / Grimm, Wilhelm / Crick, Joyce, PUBLISHER: Oxford University Press, The tales gathered by the Grimm brothers are at once familiar, fantastic, and frightening. They seem to belong to no time, or to some distant feudal age of fairytale imagining. Grand palaces, humble cottages, and the forest full of menace are their settings; and they are peopled by kings and princesses, witches and robbers, millers and golden birds, stepmothers and talking frogs. Regarded from their inception either as simple nursery stories or as raw material for the folklorist, the tales were in fact compositions, collected from literate tellers and shaped into a distinctive kind of literature. This new translation mirrors the apparent artlessness of the Grimms, and fully represents the range of less well-known fables, morality tales, and comic stories as well as the classic tales. It takes the stories back to their roots in German Romanticism and includes variant stories and tales that were deemed unsuitable for children. In her fascinating Introduction, Joyce Crick explores their origins, and their literary evolution at the hands of the Grimms.

Nurses Beyond Borders

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Harless, Nancy Leigh, PUBLISHER: Kaplan Publishing, These 25 true stories reveal what it is like to practice nursing in a country different from one's own.

Known as traveling nurses, they have made a career and life out of working in staccato bursts." Written by nurses for nurses, this book provides the insight that comes from experience. Whether confronted with unfamiliar cultural norms, new medical language, or fewer resources, the nurses writing in this collection offer a view of the commonalities and differences in nursing and how it is practiced around the world. Whether it's a U.S. nurse practitioner training doctors in war-torn Kosovo, a French nurse offering aid in Indonesia, or a Canadian nurse experiencing her dream to live and work in the Caribbean, these stories will intrigue and inspire. "Caring Beyond Borders" is as compelling as it is enjoyable, and provides the reader with a first-class pass to the wide world of nursing.

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Taylor, Bayard / Cleland, Robert Glass, PUBLISHER: Bison Books, The Eldorado that Bayard Taylor imagined in his youthful poetry was not half so fabulous as the California he finally saw in the historical year of . He joined the flood of Forty-niners, not as a fortune-seeker but as a journalist, sailing from New York on a crowded steamer. The sight of San Francisco dazzled him: the simmering mountains and water and air, the few hundred houses that seemed to multiply before his very eyes, and the streets teeming with people "of a diverse and bizarre character." Real estate was booming, and fortunes were being made, lost, and remade in two months. Before Taylor returned to New York via Mexico in he would tour the missions, mining camps, and scattered ranches farther inland; note the agricultural potential of the valleys; and talk with the overland emigrants. Taking the feverish pulse of a pitched-together society, he would, like everyone else, be changed by California.

Wild New York: A Celebration of Our State's Natural Beauty

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Brumley, Charles / Heilman, Carl / McKibben, Bill, PUBLISHER: Voyageur Press (MN), New York comes alive in the pages of "Wild New York." Author Charles Brumley and photographer Carl E. Heilman II traveled thousands of miles to give us this photographic portrait of the state's diverse and unique natural areas. Our state has nearly every type of natural landscape found in the continental United States New York is the majestic Niagara Falls and the sandy beaches of Long Island. It is the stunning, historic Hudson Valley and the massive inland seas of Lakes Erie and Ontario. It is the fragile acres of alpine flora above Adirondack tree line and the snowy skies of the Tug Hill Plateau. " Wild New York" is the natural beauty of our state; it is what we see, hear, and feel as we paddle the longest free-flowing river in the northeast, the Delaware River; hike the state's highest peak, Mt. Marcy; or gaze across the steep gorge of Cattaraugus Creek in the underappreciated Zoar Valley. It is the call of the loon on countless lakes and ponds throughout Adirondack Park; the pounding of a powerful ocean surf on Long Island. It is that still, golden late-summer afternoon when you know the Empire State is where you're meant to be.

The Bootlegger's Other Daughter

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Cimarolli, Mary, PUBLISHER: Texas A&M University Press, The generation that toiled through the Great Depression and won the Second World War has become known as "the greatest generation." But not all of them qualified for the exaggerated epithet in the eyes of their own children. In this tender but unsparing memoir, Mary Cimarolli remembers a world in which the family home was lost to foreclosure, her father made his way by bootlegging, and school was a haven in which to hide from her brother's teasing. Her stories are about struggle and survival, making do and overcoming, and, ultimately, reconciliation. From her perspective as a child, she describes the cotton stamps and other programs of the New Deal, the yellow-dog Democrat politics and racism of East Texas, and the religious revivals and Old Settlers reunions that gave a break from working in the cotton patch. Along with these regional and national trends, Cimarolli skillfully interweaves the personal: conflict between her parents, the death of her brother a few days before his sixteenth birthday, and her own inner tensions.
