York College

By: Tim McNeese, Bev McNeese, Christi Lones

The dream of York College involved hundreds of people--its reality has touched the lives of thousands. Born in a small town on the rolling plains of Nebraska in 1890, the United Brethren Church and citizens of York established York College on an empty expanse of prairie called East Hill. Its earliest classes, offered in rented rooms above a dry goods store on the town square, established the foundations of a Christian college. The institution grew as buildings arrived with each passing decade. These brick-and-mortar symbols of the college's progress include Old Main, Hulitt Conservatory of Music, Alumni Library, and Middlebrook Hall. When a tragic fire engulfed the school's venerable Old Main in 1951, York College was pulled from the ashes as a second group of believers took the institution's reins. The Churches of Christ determined to continue the dream, standing on the shoulders of those who had come before them.

And she loved it, so apparently, I got it from her, but I would listen at the door and then when the program was over, I’d go back to bed and quake.” —Stephen King Young adults will covet this comprehensive yet accessible reference to their favorite horror author.

The Other Side of the Bridge

Just a Little Longer Sweet Jesus

The Other Side of the Bridge

Just a Little Longer Sweet Jesus

By: Bev Starr

About the Book Bev Starr’s mother and father were truly opposites, and her perhaps overly inquisitive mind often wondered how two people growing up in basically the same area, even though a couple of decades apart, could view life so differently. The unhappiness Starr witnessed at an early age sparked the urge to dig deeper into the physical, psychological, emotional, economic, and belief systems within their families. This became even more important to Starr as she suddenly found that she was to bring her first child into this world that she had so many questions about. She also realized that other than the Bible, just as preparation for becoming a wife, she was unaware of any real, down-to-earth-instructions available to prepare that scared 20-year-old for one of the most important opportunities she would ever be afforded. Bev Starr’s original intent for The Other Side of the Bridge is to ensure that her children and grandchildren would have a better understanding regarding the history of their ancestors as well as a more personal feeling of having actually known them. This came from Starr’s desire to know more than just the names of her ancestors, but to know what their interests, vocations, dreams might have been. Along with knowing more about them in a personal light, Starr also wanted to know what role they may have played in the development of our great nation. We often forget that the prosperity and the lives we live today didn’t just happen, and Starr has always wondered if any of her great-great grandparents or their ancestors were actually a part of the history of the Civil War. Starr remembers what she has heard somewhere down the line, but has no factual documentation, which would mean so much to her as well as the ability to pass it on to my children. About the Author Bev Starr loved to write as a young student. She was encouraged by her seventh grade teacher, Ms. Speight, whom she credits with encouraging her to pursue writing and to further her education. Bev was awarded a scholarship upon completing high school, but instead went to work to help provide for her family.

Right as Rain

A Novel

By: Bev Marshall

In the tradition of Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Cafe and The Secret Life of Bees, this luminous, heartfelt novel explores the tragedies and triumphs, the pleasures and sorrows of two women, Tee Wee and Icey, their families, and the white family that employs them as cook and housekeeper on a tenant farm in rural Mississippi. Though the women are as different as water and wine—Icey is feisty, hot-tempered, and impulsive, while Tee Wee is more submissive and disciplined—both are driven by a passionate determination to give their children a better life. Through trying times, they are the pillars, fierce and resilient; yet they celebrate life with a love of food, music, and family that makes even the most traumatic moments endurable. The illicit love between Tee Wee’s daughter Crow and the white landowner’s son Browder; the heartbreaking death of one of Icey’s children, for which she will blame herself; the murder trial of Tee Wee’s youngest son which threatens to tear apart not just their family but the entire town—all these events are interwoven with occasions of joy, including Crow’s fulfillment of her lifelong dream and Tee Wee’s own hard-fought success. A richly emotional epic spanning two decades in the Deep South, the story of Tee Wee and Icey and their families are a prism through which we view the universal—racial strife, dysfunctional families, secrets and redemption. Illuminated by a resonant storytelling voice and dialogue that rings loud and true, Right as Rain provides indelible portraits of indomitable characters and an almost tangible sense of place, while revealing a deep understanding of race in mid-century America’s rural south.

The Road to the Dark Tower

Exploring Stephen King's Magnum Opus

By: Bev Vincent

AN ESSENTIAL GUIDE TO THE DARK TOWER SERIES—INCLUDING BOOK-BY-BOOK ANALYSIS AND INSIGHT INTO STEPHEN KING'S CREATIVE PROCESS. In 1970, Stephen King embarked on what would become the crowning achievement in his literary career-the Dark Tower. The seven-volume series, written and published over a period of 30 years, was inspired by Robert Browning's poem "Childe Roland to the Dark Tower Came," as well as J.R.R. Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings, and the spaghetti Westerns of Sergio Leone. With the full cooperation of Stephen King himself, The Road to the Dark Tower examines the epic journey of the author to complete a story that threatened to overwhelm him. In this indispensable companion, Bev Vincent presents a book-by-book analysis of each volume in the series, tracing the Dark Tower's connections to King's other novels including The Stand, Insomnia, and Hearts in Atlantis, and offering insights from the author about the creative process involved in crafting his lifelong work-a work that has consumed not only Stephen King, but his legion of devoted readers. This is essential reading for any Dark Tower-or Stephen King-fan.

The Marginal Cost of Public Funds

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

The Marginal Cost of Public Funds

Theory and Applications

By: Bev Dahlby

A unified treatment of the marginal cost of public funds, covering both its theoretical foundations and how the MCF concept can be used to analyze tax policy issues. The marginal cost of public funds (MCF) measures the loss incurred by society in raising additional revenues to finance government spending. The MCF has emerged as one of the most important concepts in public economics; it is a key component in evaluations of tax reforms, public expenditure programs, and other public policies. The Marginal Cost of Public Funds provides a unified treatment of the MCF, carefully developing its theoretical foundations in a variety of contexts and describing its application to a wide range of policies—from excise taxes in Thailand to public sector borrowing in Canada and the United States. The Marginal Cost of Public Funds develops the basic theory of the MCF within the framework of public economics and shows how it is related to the traditional measures of the efficiency loss from distortionary taxation. The MCF concept is then applied to the major sources of revenues for governments—sales and excise taxes, taxes on labor income, taxes on the return to capital, public sector borrowing, and intergovernmental grants. This book will be an essential reference for economists and public policy analysts both in and out of government. Exercises and recommendations for further reading at the end of each main chapter highlight its usefulness as a supplementary text in advanced undergraduate or graduate courses in public economics.
