A collection of recipes gathered and created by Linda Carr, an American cook and professional baker. Generations of familial knowledge and experience passed down and culminating in Linda's love of cooking for friends and family. "The main reason I started this cookbook 10 years ago, was to put down in writing my favorite recipes all in the same place. Now when I want to find a certain recipe, I don't have to look in 300 cookbooks, I just go to one book, because my memory isn't what it used to be. When I want to take a walk down memory lane or get inspired for, 'What's for dinner, ' I now just open, 'MY COOKBOOK.' I also wanted a legacy for my children and grandchildren. I only have three grandsons at the time of this printing, but they all love to cook and it's a great pleasure to help them learn. Because if they know how to cook they will never go hungry, no matter what the ingredients are.

Emily Carr (1871-1945) is an iconic figure in Canadian culture, known internationally for her painting and her writing, which depicted the extraordinary British Columbia mountain landscape along with its indigenous inhabitants and their cultural iconography. Carr's writing career came later in her life, and as it developed, she met Ira Dilworth, the British Columbia Regional Director for CBC Radio who came to play a significant role in her life. Corresponding Influence is a collection of selected correspondence the two shared over the life of their friendship. Over the years, Dilworth acted variously as Carr's editor, writing agent, sounding board, professional and personal advisor, and most importantly, close friend and confidante. The letters provide a narrative for the latter part of Carr's life and illuminate the impression Dilworth made on the development of her writing. In addition to a critical introduction and annotation throughout, editor Linda Morra has included an unpublished story by Carr called "Small's Gold." Corresponding Influence will prove essential reading to anyone hoping to understand Emily Carr's extraordinary life and work.

Through her engaged and articulate essays in the Village Voice, C. Carr has emerged as the cultural historian of the New York underground and the foremost critic of performance art. On Edge brings together her writings to offer a detailed and insightful history of this vibrant brand of theatre from the late 70s to today. It represents both Carr’s analysis as a critic and her testament as a witness to performances which, by their very nature, can never be repeated. Carr has organized this collection both chronologically and thematically, ranging from the emphasis on bodily manipulation/endurance in the 70s to the underground club scene in New York to an insider’s analysis of the Tompkins Square Riot as a manifestation of the cultural and social conflicts that underlie much of performance art. She examines the transgressive and taboo-shattering work of Ethyl Eichelberger, Karen Finley, and Holly Hughes; documents specific performances by Annie Sprinkle and Lydia Lunch; and maps the development of such artists as Robbie McCauley, Blue Man Group, and John Jesurun. She also describes the “cross-over” phenomenon of the mid-80s and considers the far-right backlash against this mainstreaming as cultural reactionaries sought to curb the influence of these new artists.

Many Black people in America have begun regressing from the advances made by their ancestors. A people who once strived to become educated, invested in families and communities, and worked hard to advance in other areas of their lives, have taken an alternate path along the way. This path has distorted the thinking process of many African Americans, leading to the adaptation of negative trends, linked to poor decision making. These unfavorable circumstances have increased the percentages of African Americans suffering from a lack of education, broken homes and communities, high rates of preventable health problems and diseases, and behaviors that display a sense of self hate. This is not to negate or ignore the fact that there are many visible and hidden disparities in America assisting in the dysfunctional state of many African American communities, it is to identify avoidable behaviors and decisions being made by many Black people, causing this rapid rate of regression. These factors have led to the unnatural state of many Black communities in America.
