One of the most capable of the late nineteenth century western artists, Frank Paul Sauerwein (1871-1910) is also one of the most quietly admired. Upon Sauerwein's untimely death, friends were many, family few, only an ageing father. And like even the best of friends, they had their respective lives to lead. There were no sons or daughters to continue that begun, no wife to continue the mission embarked upon, no war chest to promote his works. Records lost, diaries gone, paintings placed to thwart the attic's draft, writings long since misplaced. And so for nearly a hundred years, the light has been dimly lit, perhaps as Sauerwein would have wanted it, yet history has a way of locating those pilgrims of the past who in retrospect offered a vibrant message and timeless images. Frank Paul Sauerwein, the Biography, brings to light an impressive quantity of information on the artist as well as an in-depth analysis of his works from his early, middle and late periods. It features in color many of his works that have never been published and focuses on his seminal and epic paintings, many of which have rarely been seen. Several additional archival and original photographs of both Sauerwein and his works have likewise been located and reproduced. Additionally the reader will find critical information on the artist and related data including a chronology, a listing of known paintings and a discussion of certain of the techniques utilized by this master artist.
In the flow of drugs to the United States from Latin America, women have always played key roles as bosses, business partners, money launderers, confidantes, and couriers—work rarely acknowledged. Elaine Carey’s study of women in the drug trade offers a new understanding of this intriguing subject, from women drug smugglers in the early twentieth century to the cartel queens who make news today. Using international diplomatic documents, trial transcripts, medical and public welfare studies, correspondence between drug czars, and prison and hospital records, the author’s research shows that history can be as gripping as a thriller.
