A Most Dreadful Earthquake

By: Dorothy Fowler

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

This unique book, based on the previously unpublished correspondence of a young San Francisco woman describing the aftermath of the 1906 San Francisco earthquake and fire, graphically describes the sights of the city and gives details of everyday life in the chaos of those first days. Sarah Phillips' letters tell of walking a circuitous route of several miles in search of her mail, cooking in the streets for fear of fire, and sleeping outside for fear of aftershocks. In the second half of the book, CGS member Dorothy Fowler leads the reader through an investigation using classic genealogy methods to identify the relatives and friends Sarah identified only by their initials. This book is not only an exciting "you are there" account, it is also, as one reviewer wrote, "a Baedeker to genealogy research.

Now my confidential blood lamb runs victory daily. My book helped me afraid, trembled, and annoyed and fearless reassurance lifted my spirits. Helpful are firm and worthy goals, beliefs and wishes those achievement wet and day seasons. Moreover, I wanted realize some times if I answerability the reasons for mistakes. I do inner pain is inside my book and reading over all over again. My poetry is about my journey within and the empowerment I received, by taking my healing out of mans hand and trusting God for my total healing. What you are about to read is my story, and through it I hope you will accept that there is only one creator. And his spirit and energy lives within us all.

Literary Onomastics

By: Dorothy Dodge Robbins

Literary Onomastics surveys different methods of studying names in works of literature and offers representative works of literary onomastic analysis. Included in this volume are qualitative studies that examine select names as well as quantitative studies that examine entire systems of names. These studies of literary names straddle centuries, cross genres, and defy simple categorization. Leading and emerging scholars in this field provide insight into the namecraft of William Shakespeare, Philip Sidney, John Donne, Julia Alvarez, Ursula K. Le Guin, Zadie Smith, George R. R. Martin, and Britain's Rebel Writers. The theories and methods they employ are associated with cultural, linguistic, rhetorical, feminist, and ethnic studies. Collectively, these scholars demonstrate the many approaches available to the study of names and naming practices in literary works. Additionally, they consider how names function in a variety of genres and mediums, including poetry, novels, science fiction, and fantasy.
