Ladies and Gentlemen on Display

Planter Society at the Virginia Springs, 1790-1860

By: Charlene M. Boyer Lewis

Written as a dissertation in history at the U. of Virginia, this study recreates the societal mores displayed at summer resorts at Virginia Springs from 1790-1860, as this was recorded in the letters and other archives of families who sojourned there. Lewis (history, Widener U.) suggests that her history provides a new insight into plantation society by recording responses to unusual events and lack of routine. She supplements the account with some analysis of the sources for the romantic and idealistic views of this culture. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR

Seduction On The Ceo's Terms

By: Charlene Sands

He'd returned to Napa Valley strictly to help run the family winery…not be distracted by a beauty on the staff. CEO Joe Carlino had made the mistake of indulging in an office romance once before, and everything about Ali Pendrake practically screamed "make me your woman!" Frustrated that her boss was judging her solely by her looks, Ali committed to a total reverse makeover. Ironically, when she transformed from glittery Cinderella to mousey plain Jane, she really caught the wealthy bachelor's eye. Yet as they moved from boardroom to bedroom, she wondered if Joe would ever see—or love—the real Ali.

Gamblers and Dreamers

Women, Men, and Community in the Klondike

By: Charlene Porsild

Gamblers and Dreamers

Women, Men, and Community in the Klondike

By: Charlene Porsild

The popular image of the Klondike is of a rush of white, male adventurers who overcame great physical and geographical obstacles in their quest for gold. Young, white, single American men carried forward the ideals and structures of the western frontier. It was a man's world made respectable only after the turn of the century with the arrival of white, middle class women who miraculously swept out the corners of dirt and vice and 'civilized' the society. These impressions endure despite recent attempts to correct them. Gamblers and Dreamers tackles some of the myths about the history of the North in the era of the gold rush. Though many inhabitants came and went, Charlene Porsild focuses on the concept of community commitment to show that many put down roots. This in-depth study of Dawson City at the turn of the century reveals that the city had a cosmopolitan character, a stratified society, and a definite permanence. It examines the lives of First Nations peoples, miners and other labourers, professionals, merchants, dance hall performers and sex trade workers, providing fascinating detail about those who left homes and jobs to strike it rich in the last great gold rush of the nineteenth century. In the process, Gamblers and Dreamers puts a human face on this compelling period of history.

Lori

By: Charlene Wexler

The sheltered, comfortable, liberal upbringing undergone by Lori in the North Shore suburbs of Chicago in the United States did not prepare her for marriage into the difficult and quirky working-class family of her husband, Jerry—or for the sweeping societal and social changes of the last quarter of the 20th century. Lori deals with relationships between family and friends, divorce, alcoholism, infidelity, homosexuality, the judicial system, the Holocaust, and financial booms and busts. Most importantly, it deals with cancer from the points of view of both the victim and the survivors. Lori’s seemingly perfect suburban world is in constant peril. Fortunately, her lifelong best friend, Adele, is there every step of the way to provide support and advice—until Adele faces her own tragedy. When separated from Adele by thousands of miles, Lori also finds she can count on her new friend, Rain—an ex-flower-child with a surprising connection to Lori’s past that holds the key to Lori’s future. Lori is the story of a woman gaining strength she never knew she could achieve and of victory over adversity.

Are You Ready?

By: Charlene D. Rasmussen

Bill ran for sheriff; looked for missing children; got attacked by a pimp, dogs, moose, and a bear; built a cabin in the mountains; and played his keyboard across the country and in the White Housewith hooks for hands. On May 11, 1971, Bill Rasmussen was a twenty-four-year-old country bumpkin who was painting from the roof of a building when thirteen thousand volts of electricity from a power line entered his body through his hands and exited through his upper legs. Three months later, he awakened with six years of memory erased and a wife, child, and a parole officer he didnt recognize. While unconscious, he repeatedly heard the question, Are you ready? and a powerful urgency he couldnt shake stalked him to find the answer to that question. He didnt know God very well; nor did he know that God was about to take him on a forty-year journey full of mind-boggling, exciting, and catastrophic adventuresbefore he would find the answer to that question.

Christian Voices

Journeys through Faith and Politics in Contemporary American Protestantism

By: Charlene Floyd

Today, religion plays a significant role in the political positions people take on a number of important issues: stem cell research, abortion, right to life, gay marriage, etc. But how do people of the same faith come to radically different conclusions and positions on these issues? How has the right convinced a majority of evangelical Christians that there is a Biblical mandate to oppose abortion, stem cell research, and gay marriage? Or, why do progressive Christians believe they are called to be the voice of the voiceless, to advocate for the poor and to challenge aggressive foreign policy? This book gives voice to politically active Protestant Christians with an eye toward understanding how people who share the same scriptures, hymns, prayers, and creeds arrive at and embrace radically different political perspectives. Floyd explores the notion of agenda-setting within Christian communities (left and right) and provides an in-depth look at the lives of a small but diverse number of politically active, committed Christians. In their own words, Protestants across the country explain how they arrive at their political opinions. The thoughts, the ideas, the reasons for celebrating and the causes of despair, will be familiar—at times painfully so—to many. Reading these profiles one may begin to answer those basic questions: how can they call themselves Christian? and how could they possibly have voted for him?. Beginning with a brief overview of religion and politics in the United States and a discussion of recent developments (2001-2005), serious consideration of the key themes raised by the profile chapters follow. These include theology, practice, and connect/disconnect with society (particularly the group/individual's perception of its/their relationship to the world at large). Each chapter describes a different group of people whose political lives have been shaped by their faith and who are willing to think about and talk about their ideas. They take into consideration personal histories, education, work, family and friends, and explore how religious beliefs have shaped people's lives, especially with regard to political decision-making. Extensive interviews allow the voices of those profiled to be clearly heard.

Journey to the Blue Planet - Book I

Revised Edition

By: Charlene Haupt

Rodane Arcos is a renowned archaeologist who is about to have the knowledge of a world he's always known and explored, upended. Most people are unaware that we have had a presence of an alien population going back 250,000 years. They have peacefully embedded themselves in our world, raised their families and joined with us in every way. Their families, with their advanced technology and their influence are a part of every culture in most established populations. Uncovering this would threaten the very foundation of our facts of human evolution and all existing cultures. Even historians, scientists and archaeologists cannot agree on a rational explanation for numerous mysteries that still astound us. They have continued questioning many of those finds for centuries. Rodane’s new ‘education’ now repudiates some of the major findings he has always thought of as humanity’s great advances. Earth is at a nexus between what man and our world really are and what most people believe they are. The results revealed can be catastrophic or healing and beneficial to all. Time is now their enemy in some respects because with time comes new revelations, new discoveries, new questions that could point a finger at all the anomalies of which historians and archeologists are aware but seek reliable answers. Those mysteries continue and those finds are becoming more and more suspect. To make matters worse, there are those who are renegades from some unsuccessful landings and have been trying for centuries to undo and collect what the others have used to help our world and all its people to move forward. There are factions trying to collapse this mixed population, expose it and use any means to do so, even to the detriment of the entire planet and all living things here. He and his family as well as many others are now in danger as long as they cannot find the ones responsible for attempts to undo all the good and bring disasters to the entire earth. The danger rises to the highest ranks of government everywhere and all living standards in every culture. It could all fall apart in an instant. Or it could bring out the best in all mankind.

Farewell to South Shore

By: Charlene Wexler

Farewell to South Shore taps into and articulates a woman’s emotions related to dealing with a changing society, particularly its expectations of women. Farewell to South Shore creates an instant rapport between the main character and the reader who has experienced change in her own life. It explores the sadness of dealing with divorce, single motherhood, a friend’s abortion, a beloved cousin suffering from AIDS, changing mores, and the joys resulting from a loving family, rewarding career, finding new love in middle age, and making the world a better place. The book inspires perseverance and determination to help take charge of one's own life in a rapidly changing world—a world vastly different than the idyllic South Shore of the main character’s youth.
