Writing the Empire

The McIlwraiths, 1853–1948

By: Eva-Marie Kröller

Writing the Empire is a collective biography of the McIlwraiths, a family of politicians, entrepreneurs, businesspeople, scientists, and scholars. Known for their contributions to literature, politics, and anthropology, the McIlwraiths originated in Ayrshire, Scotland, and spread across the British Empire, specifically North America and Australia, from the mid-nineteenth century onwards. Focusing on imperial networking, Writing the Empire reflects on three generations of the McIlwraiths’ life writing, including correspondence, diaries, memoirs, and estate papers, along with published works by members of the family. By moving from generation to generation, but also from one stage of a person’s life to the next, the author investigates how various McIlwraiths, both men and women, articulated their identity as subjects of the British Empire over time. Eva-Marie Kröller identifies parallel and competing forms of communication that involved major public figures beyond the family’s immediate circle, and explores the challenges issued by Indigenous people to imperial ideologies. Drawing from private papers and public archives, Writing the Empire is an illuminating biography that will appeal to readers interested in the links between life writing and imperial history.

African Americans in Covington

By: Eva Semien Baham

Covington is the seat of St. Tammany Parish government and sits north of Lake Pontchartrain in the New Orleans metropolitan area. Records from 1727 show 11 Africans on the north shore. One person of African descent was present at the founding of Covington on July 4, 1813. Most African Americans in antebellum Covington were slaves, with a modest number of free people, all of whom covered nearly every occupation needed for the development and sustenance of a heavily forested region. For more than 200 years in Covington, African Americans transformed their second-class status by grounding themselves in shared religious and social values. They organized churches, schools, civic organizations, benevolent societies, athletic associations, and businesses to address their needs and to celebrate their joys.

By: Eva Marie Everson,G. W. Francis Chadwick

After an explosive confrontation with her mother, Katherine 'Katie' Morgan left her childhood home on the eve of her high school graduation twenty-five years ago.

As Katie attempts to reconcile with her broken-hearted and embittered mother, the past continues to haunt her, threatening to destroy the new life and happiness she has built with her husband, Ben Webster. As Katie confronts the looming shadows of her past, Ben fights the demons of the present when he discovers an illegal escort operation within his five-star hotel. Both Ben and Katie are in danger unless they can expose the darkness that has gripped their lives, all the while moving out of the shadows and into the light.
