Stitching A Life in Persimmon Hollow

Persimmon Hollow Legacy Book 2

By: Gerri Bauer

Spinning dreams of glamour, a seamstress uncovers a greater truth. In the second novel in the Persimmon Hollow Legacy series, we meet starry-eyed seamstress Josefa Gomez. Living and working with her aunt and uncle at a citrus grove in Persimmon Hollow, Josefa longs for the glamorous life of a sophisticated fashion designer. Her dreams alarm her Tía Lupita, who fears such ambitions are unrealistic for a 19th century woman. She decides Josefa should live with distant relatives and prepare for an arranged marriage. The headstrong Josefa rebels. Without telling her aunt, she accepts an apprenticeship with the town’s dressmaker and continues to see two suitors. She’s dazzled by the wealth and charm of one but feels more relaxed and open with the other. She’s also unaware of the wealthier man’s dangerous motives. Will she choose the man who could give her the outward trappings? Or the man who has fewer material goods but a bigger heart?

Growing A Family in Persimmon Hollow

Persimmon Hollow Legacy Book 3

By: Gerri Bauer

A temporary exile becomes a forever home. Long before #MeToo, a 19th century American woman who became pregnant after an assault paid a high price. Laws didn’t support her. Society shunned her. She was often banished from home. That’s what happens to Penelope Gold, the heroine of Growing A Family in Persimmon Hollow. She is exiled to the Florida frontier town of Persimmon Hollow. She’s expected to hide for the duration of her pregnancy, leave her newborn for adoption and scurry home. But something remarkable happens after she arrives. She finds love, acceptance, faith and a newfound determination to pursue the future she wants.

Alice Walker

A Critical Companion

By: Gerri Bates

Alice Walker, born in Eatonton, Georgia in 1944, overcame a disadvantaged sharecropping background, blindness in one eye, and the tense times of the Civil Rights Movement to become one of the world's most respected African American writers. While attending both Spelman and Sarah Lawrence Colleges, Walker began to draw on both her personal tragedies and those of her community to write poetry, essays, short stories, and novels that would tell the virtually untold stories of oppressed African and African American women, providing readers with hope and inspiring activisim. Perhaps best known for her novel The Color Purple (1982), which won the Pulitzer Prize in 1983 and became a controversial film three years later, Walker has introduced and developed womanist theory, criticism and practice, and continues to champion the causes of women of color by encouraging their strength and liberation in her life and her writings. Literary works analyzed in this volume: The Third Life of Grange Copeland, Meridian, The Color Purple, The Temple of My Familiar, Possessing the Secret of Joy, By the Light of My Father's Smile, The Way Forward Is With a Broken Heart, Now is the Time to Open Your Heart.

Tales from the Chargers Sideline

A Collection of the Greatest Chargers Stories Ever Told

By: Sid Brooks,Gerri Brooks

During his 27-year tenure with the Chargers, beloved equipment manager Sid Brooks kept more than 5,000 football players from appearing naked before their cheering fans. The first African American to hold the job of equipment manager in the NFL, Brooks was tasked with seeing that each player left the locker room in uniform. But the means to that end was far more complicated—and outrageous—than one would believe. In Tales from the Chargers Locker Room, Sid recounts stories unique to a life spent working behind the scenes in the Chargers locker room. He features stories about Chargers greats like Dan Fouts, Charlie Joiner, Kellen Winslow, Louie Kelcher, John Jefferson, Rodney Harrison, and Junior Seau. With an eye for detail, he recounts tales of spies sent out to capture the opposing team’s playbooks; the night the lights went out on Don Shula; wild cab rides; the zany pregame rituals and idiosyncrasies; rivalries born not on the playing field, but at the dominoes table; and plenty of pranks and good-natured ribbing. Brimming with hilarity, insight, and fascinating behind-the-scenes stories, Tales from the Chargers Locker Room is a must-read for every Chargers devotee.

Mapping the Private Geography

Autobiography, Identity, and America

By: Gerri Reaves

This study of autobiographical writing and its reflection of personal and national identity analyzes the different ways in which these authors balance individual American identity with collective identities and reinvent their familial, cultural, and national engenderings. In each of the works discussed, a private geography - a psychological map, a myth, an ideology, or a fiction - is posited, while its author explores claims to the ownership of memory, history, and the self.
