Agnes Lake Hickok

Queen of the Circus, Wife of a Legend

By: Carolyn M. Bowers,Linda A. Fisher

The first woman in America to own and operate a circus, Agnes Lake spent thirty years under the Big Top before becoming the wife of Wild Bill Hickok—a mere five months before he was killed. Although books abound on the famous lawman, Agnes’s life has remained obscured by circus myth and legend. Linda A. Fisher and Carrie Bowers have written the first biography of this colorful but little-known circus performer. Agnes originally found fame as a slack-wire walker and horseback rider, and later as an animal trainer. Her circus career spanned more than four decades. Following the murder of her first husband, Bill Lake, she was the sole manager of the “Hippo-Olympiad and Mammoth Circus.” While taking her show to Abilene, she met town marshal Hickok and five years later she married him. After Hickok’s death, Agnes traveled with P. T. Barnum and Buffalo Bill Cody, and managed her daughter Emma Lake’s successful equestrian career. This account of a remarkable life cuts through fictions about Agnes’s life, including her own embellishments, to uncover her true story. Numerous illustrations, including rare photographs and circus memorabilia, bring Agnes’s world to life.

Leveraging Technology in Leadership Communication

Leveraging Technology in Leadership Communication

By: Carolyn Mae Kim

Taking a close look at how digital media can elevate or diminish a leader’s influence, this book provides a framework to guide organizational leaders’ selection and application of digital tools in communication with stakeholders. Through a media ecology approach, the book begins by exploring the transitions in technology over the course of human history that resulted in today’s digital communication environment. It builds on this understanding to examine the value leadership communication provides to engage employees and drive organizational objectives internally, while also highlighting the value of leaders’ external stakeholder communication using tools such as social media or websites to elevate credibility. It examines various challenges to give a realistic assessment of how leaders can navigate digital communication successfully to thrive personally and professionally. Finally, the book explores an often-missed dimension of leadership communication: followers. Using the ethicality of leadership and the role of followers, it concludes by examining guiding values for leadership communication in the digital age as well as forecasting future trends that will shape leaders’ communication. The book is intended as supplementary reading in organizational, leadership, corporate, and internal communication courses at both the undergraduate and graduate levels. Online instructor resources for this book include a one-sheet overview of how to use the text in a course as well as sample assignments and discussion questions.

Discretionary Justice

Pardon and Parole in New York from the Revolution to the Depression

Discretionary Justice

Pardon and Parole in New York from the Revolution to the Depression

By: Carolyn Strange

The pardon is an act of mercy, tied to the divine right of kings. Why did New York retain this mode of discretionary justice after the Revolution? And how did governors’ use of this prerogative change with the advent of the penitentiary and the introduction of parole? This book answers these questions by mining previously unexplored evidence held in official pardon registers, clemency files, prisoner aid association reports and parole records. This is the first book to analyze the histories of mercy and parole through the same lens, as related but distinct forms of discretionary decision-making. It draws on governors’ public papers and private correspondence to probe their approach to clemency, and it uses qualitative and quantitative methods to profile petitions for mercy, highlighting controversial cases that stirred public debate. Political pressure to render the use of discretion more certain and less personal grew stronger over the nineteenth century, peaking during constitutional conventionsand reaching its height in the Progressive Era. Yet, New York’s legislators left the power to pardon in the governor’s hands, where it remains today. Unlike previous works that portray parole as the successor to the pardon, this book shows that reliance upon and faith in discretion has proven remarkably resilient, even in the state that led the world toward penal modernity.
