Living in Disney's Brave New Town

By: Douglas Frantz,Catherine Collins

A prize-winning reporter, his wife, and their two kids describe life in Disney's vision of the future. In 1997, six months after the first residents had moved into Celebration, Florida-Disney's town of the future with its distinctly retro link to a longed-for past-Doug and Cathy and their two kids closed on their new home and settled down to participate in (and observe) this new venture. Their report from the trenches will surprise both Disney haters and Disney fans. What is it like to start a new community-not a suburb or subdivision, but a town, inted to be a self-supporting community with the best of the new technologies (including the very latest in teaching techniques) and the most cherished elements in American towns that existed before the automobile turned everything into a mall? For almost two years the family lived this experiment firsthand. Their report is vivid, funny, and painful-and it tells us as much about ourselves and our hopes and dreams as it does about the daily reality of building a community from the ground up.

Frontier Seaport

Detroit's Transformation into an Atlantic Entrepôt

By: Catherine Cangany

Detroit’s industrial health has long been crucial to the American economy. Today’s troubles notwithstanding, Detroit has experienced multiple periods of prosperity, particularly in the second half of the eighteenth century, when the city was the center of the thriving fur trade. Its proximity to the West as well as its access to the Great Lakes and the St. Lawrence River positioned this new metropolis at the intersection of the fur-rich frontier and the Atlantic trade routes. In Frontier Seaport, Catherine Cangany details this seldom-discussed chapter of Detroit’s history. She argues that by the time of the American Revolution, Detroit functioned much like a coastal town as a result of the prosperous fur trade, serving as a critical link in a commercial chain that stretched all the way to Russia and China—thus opening Detroit’s shores for eastern merchants and other transplants. This influx of newcomers brought its own transatlantic networks and fed residents’ desires for popular culture and manufactured merchandise. Detroit began to be both a frontier town and seaport city—a mixed identity, Cangany argues, that hindered it from becoming a thoroughly “American” metropolis.

Wild Song

By: Catherine Creel

In the embrace of a passionate enemy, one woman challenges her heritage and dares to listen to the song in her heart. . . . Drawn by a haunting melody, Sir Brian Devereux, knight of the realm, leaves the cold stone walls of Ballymorna Castle in search of the strange music that stirs his dreams. Into the lush Irish countryside he discovers an emerald-eyed temptress playing her harp. From the moment they gaze at each other, their eyes lock in silent combat. Ceara Brennan knows that this man is the English king's warrior sent from across the sea to break the spirit of her people. And Brian knows that to touch the lovely Irish Ceara is forbidden. But the temptation is too much to resist. . . . Surrendering to a Celtic passion beyond her control, Ceara is possessed in body, in spirit, and in marriage by her greatest enemy--and her only love. Together they must face the king Brian has defied, the village Ceara has betrayed, and the scorned man who makes a blood vow to claim Ceara as his own.
