Descendants of William Cromartie and Ruhamah Doane

By: Amanda Cook Gilbert

This ambitious work chronicles 250 years of the Cromartie family genealogical history. Included in the index of nearly fifty thousand names are the current generations, and all of those preceding, which trace ancestry to our family patriarch, William Cromartie, who was born in 1731 in Orkney, Scotland, and his second wife, Ruhamah Doane, who was born in 1745. Arriving in America in 1758, William Cromartie settled and developed a plantation on South River, a tributary of the Cape Fear near Wilmington, North Carolina. On April 2, 1766, William married Ruhamah Doane, a fifth-generation descendant of a Mayflower passenger to Plymouth, Stephen Hopkins. If Cromartie is your last name or that of one of your blood relatives, it is almost certain that you can trace your ancestry to one of the thirteen children of William Cromartie, his first wife, and Ruhamah Doane, who became the founding ancestors of our Cromartie family in America: William Jr., James, Thankful, Elizabeth, Hannah Ruhamah, Alexander, John, Margaret Nancy, Mary, Catherine, Jean, Peter Patrick, and Ann E. Cromartie. These four volumes hold an account of the descent of each of these first-generation Cromarties in America, including personal anecdotes, photographs, copies of family bibles, wills, and other historical documents. Their pages hold a personal record of our ancestors and where you belong in the Cromartie family tree.

The Collected Stories of Amanda Cross

By: Amanda Cross

Amanda Cross is master of the American literary whodunit. In her delicately menacing short fiction, assembled here in one volume, dangerous impulses seize the most unlikely individuals, and everyday existence is fast eclipsed by the bizarre. Among the compelling intrigues: The cold-blooded murder of Mrs. Byron Lloyd, shot dead during a writers' panel discussion . . . the enigma of the nameless toddler who walks out of the bushes one New England summer afternoon . . . the reappearance of a missing Constable drawing just where it can cause the most trouble . . . and other wonderful mysteries, many of which star the incomparable amateur sleuth Kate Fansler.

The Butterfly Blueprint

Revitalize Your Relationship and Keep Your Heart Fluttering Forever

By: Amanda Green

We want so much more out of love and life—and yet we feel helpless to attain it. Women and men want emotional and sexual intimacy but often find themselves living like roommates, feeling alone and frustrated. The Butterfly Blueprint is veteran couple’s counselor AMANDA GREEN’S prescription for love that lasts. Much like a butterfly needs two distinct sets of wings to work together to fly, a relationship takes two people consciously caring for their connection to gracefully navigate life’s twists and turns. Green presents a thoughtful case for cultivating effective interdependence in one’s marriage or long-term relationship. In the Butterfly Blueprint, you will find a stellar guide—including 8-principles and 24-practices—for building and maintaining true and lasting love. The Butterfly Blueprint is a transformative tool for couples facing common challenges related to money, sex, parenting, in-laws, running a household, and addictions. Green has helped hundreds of couples in her thriving private practice, and readers could hardly hope for better counsel. Her personal stories sprinkled throughout the book are revealing, relatable, and encouraging.

Carry On, Oh My Soul

By: Amanda Vittitow

Morgan Huntley had always considered herself plain – kind of a nerd, certainly conservative. Jeremiah Martin was gorgeous, popular, outgoing and passionate about baseball. How on Earth did the stars of these two polar opposites intertwine? No one can say, but it was a love like legends are made of. When Jeremiah’s dream of a professional baseball career rises, he risks throwing it all away for her, but Morgan sacrifices her own passionate love so he can pursue his dream. Morgan marries Will Tomlin whose charm and wit fade quickly to reveal a dark abusive past. Will’s demons haunt the relationship and Morgan finds herself the victim of emotional and physical abuse that culminates in a tragic and fatal showdown. Widowed and alone, Morgan must pick up the remnants of her life. When Jeremiah returns, Morgan wonders if she can ever truly love again. Amanda Vittitow presents a dramatic portrayal of the light and dark sides of love in Carry On, Oh My Soul.

Celebutantes

A Novel

By: Amanda Goldberg,Ruthanna Khalighi Hopper

Prepare to enter a world of what fashion designer Michael Kors has called "stylish intrigue, glamorous machinations, and such juicy fun." Take a wild ride with Amanda Goldberg and Ruthanna Hopper, who have culled their insider's purview to peel back Oscar's legendary curtain and reveal what really goes on under the sheets of Young Hollywood. Do Happy Hollywood Endings really exist, or does everyone end up on the cutting room floor sooner or later? It's a shocking, entertaining race to the end of the red carpet... Twenty-six-year-old Lola Santisi, daughter of an Academy Award-winning mega-director and a former cover model, is Hollywood Royalty without a kingdom—or even a condo—to call her own. This "Actorholic," who also suffers from "Career Deficit Disorder," is looking for more from life than what her famous last name has offered, namely her mother's last-season Chanel hand-me-downs and the lurking shadow of her father's fame. In her latest gig as a Hollywood ambassador, Lola's stepping out of her Louboutins and into fashion's ultimate combat boots to engage in LA's cruelest blood sport: convincing celebrities to wear an unknown designer's gowns to the Oscars. Providing advice, emotional support, and even a new mantra or two are her BFF (Best Friend Forever) Kate Woods, an obsessively ambitious talent agent desperate to go from unter to über, and her BAF (Best Actress Forever) Cricket Curtis, a struggling up-and-comer trying to surpass her role as a coma victim on Grey's Anatomy and overcome one rejection after another to become the next Cameron Diaz or Nicole Kidman, or the next anybody. Together, they dodge fashion roadkill while navigating General Motors' Annual Fashion Show, the Gagosian dinner at Mr. Chow, and more. Ultimately, the week culminates at the über-exclusive Vanity Fair Oscar party, where the allotted time slot on your invitation marks how far in or out you really are. But who will be left standing with job, heart, and stilettos still intact at the after-after-Oscar party?

The Politics of Differentiation in Schools

By: Martin Mills,Amanda Keddie,Peter Renshaw,Sue Monk

In many English-speaking countries, teachers are encouraged to differentiate their classrooms, and in some cases, through various policy mechanisms. This encouragement is often accompanied by threats and sanctions for not making the grade. By exploring the ways in which one education system in Australia has mandated differentiation through an audit of teacher practices, this book provides a timely engagement with the relationship between differentiated classrooms and social justice. It covers tensions, for instance, between providing culturally-appropriate classrooms, including constructing engaging and relevant curricula, and lowering expectations for students who have traditionally been marginalised by schooling. The data for this book has been collected from the same group of teachers over a period of three years, and offers detailed insights into how a particular politics of differentiation has played itself out in the context of a ‘global reform movement’ that has focused on improving student outcomes.
