The second installment of the sexy and thrilling Her Dark Desires series. Danger seems to have an appetite for succubus Sally Sanders, and it's coming back for seconds. Things are looking up for succubus Sally Sanders. She has the man of her dreams, delicious incubus Hector Aurelius, and she finally has a job she cares about as a self-defense instructor at Elysian. But danger seems to have an appetite for Sally, and it's coming back for seconds. When the dean sends Hector and Sally on a mission to a sister school to help "whip things into shape," Sally and Hector quickly discover things are not as they appear. The students are odd, willful at times and zombie-like at others, and the headmaster, supposedly one of the most-powerful vampires in the world, doesn't seem to be very concerned about the situation at all—though he is keenly interested in getting into Sally's pants. At the center of it all is a Red Witch named Carmen, a former protégée of Hector's who seems hell-bent on getting him all to herself, even if that means killing everyone in her path—Sally especially—to accomplish just that. Vengeful crushes, handsome vampires, and romantic thrills await in the second installment of the Her Dark Desires series.

In the late seventeenth century, General Alonso de León led five military expeditions from northern New Spain into what is now Texas in search of French intruders who had settled on lands claimed by the Spanish crown. Lola Orellano Norris has identified sixteen manuscript copies of de León’s meticulously kept expedition diaries. These documents hold major importance for early Texas scholarship. Some of these early manuscripts have been known to historians, but never before have all sixteen manuscripts been studied. In this interdisciplinary study, Norris transcribes, translates, and analyzes the diaries from two different perspectives. The historical analysis reveals that frequent misinterpretations of the Spanish source documents have led to substantial factual errors that have persisted in historical interpretation for more than a century. General Alonso de León’s Expeditions into Texas is the first presentation of these important early documents and provides new vistas on Spanish Texas.

The story of a once vibrant, now vanished off-reservation Ojibwe village—and a vital chapter of the history of the North Shore “We do this because telling where you are from is just as important as your name. It helps tie us together and gives us a strong and solid place to speak from. It is my hope that the stories of Chippewa City will be heard, shared, and remembered, and that the story of Chippewa City and the Grand Marais Chippewa will continue to grow. By being a part of the living narrative, Bimaadizi Aadizookaan, together we can create a new story about what was, what is, and, ultimately, what will be.” —from the Prologue At the turn of the nineteenth century, one mile east of Grand Marais, Minnesota, you would have found Chippewa City, a village that as many as 200 Anishinaabe families called home. Today you will find only Highway 61, private lakeshore property, and the one remaining village building: St. Francis Xavier Church. In Walking the Old Road, Staci Lola Drouillard guides readers through the story of that lost community, reclaiming for history the Ojibwe voices that have for so long, and so unceremoniously, been silenced. Blending memoir, oral history, and narrative, Walking the Old Road reaches back to a time when Chippewa City, then called Nishkwakwansing (at the edge of the forest), was home to generations of Ojibwe ancestors. Drouillard, whose own family once lived in Chippewa City, draws on memories, family history, historical analysis, and testimony passed from one generation to the next to conduct us through the ages of early European contact, government land allotment, family relocation, and assimilation. Documenting a story too often told by non-Natives, whether historians or travelers, archaeologists or settlers, Walking the Old Road gives an authentic voice to the Native American history of the North Shore. This history, infused with a powerful sense of place, connects the Ojibwe of today with the traditions of their ancestors and their descendants, recreating the narrative of Chippewa City as it was—and is and forever will be—lived.

Named one of the Best Photo Books of the Year by Smithsonian A stunning full-color collection of photographs, old and new, by the renowned photographer and LGBTQIA+ activist Lola Flash Working at the forefront of genderqueer visual politics, celebrated photographer Lola Flash has become known for images that manage to both interrogate and transcend preconceptions about gender, sex, and race. Spurred by their experience as an active member of ACT UP and ART+ during the AIDS epidemic in New York City, their art is profoundly connected to their activism, fueling a lifelong commitment to visibility and preserving the legacy of queer communities, especially queer communities of color. The seventeenth volume in a groundbreaking series of LGBTQ-themed photobooks from The New Press, Believable draws on the extraordinary body of work that Flash has created over four decades, from their iconic “Cross Colour” images from the 1980s and early 1990s to their more recent photography, which used the framework of Afrofuturism to examine the intersection of Black culture and technoculture and science fiction. Also included in the book are portraits that explore the impact of skin pigmentation on Black identity and consciousness, as well as people who have challenged traditional concepts of gender and trendsetters in the urban underground cultural scene. In all their images, their passion for photography and their belief in the medium’s ability to provide agency and freedom and initiate change shine through. For the first time, Believable brings together the remarkable work of this queer art icon. Believable was designed by Emerson, Wajdowicz Studios (EWS).

Created from a portion of Crawford County in 1837, Franklin County is divided by the Arkansas River into two sections, each with its own county seat: Ozark in the North and Charleston in the South. Northern Franklin County is remote, mysterious, and beautiful, while the southern area enjoys graceful and vastly productive prairie lands. The combination of fertile soil and mild climate in the Ozark Mountains produces fruit, vineyards, precious stones, granite, and forests. Evocative images such as the young girls posing in the Altus schoolyard paint a poignant and revealing picture of everyday life in Franklin County. Coal mining played a large part in the lives of residents, and photographs of soot-covered miners display the hardships of this difficult work. With over two hundred photographs gathered from local collections, this book illustrates the history and culture of Franklin County in vivid detail, with captions that are both entertaining and informative.
Steadfast Movement examines how people from Chuuk State in the Federated States of Micronesia (FSM) move about and their cultural interpretations of movement itself. Special consideration is made of movement on the atoll of Satowan in Chuuk State as intimately associated with clan, lineage, and locality, as well as the influence of a system of local beliefs and attitudes based on combinations of age, marital status, and childbirth. Lola Quan Bautista also investigates the ways in which the current movement of citizens from Chuuk State and others from FSM to Guam fits within larger contexts that emphasize historical circumstances and more current political-economic considerations. Considering movement as being steadfast makes this study one of the few undertaken in the Pacific to self-consciously attempt to provide a sense of agency and interconnectivity between transnationalism and circular mobility.
CliffsNotes on Richard Wright's Native Son, including life and background of the author, list of characters, critical commentaries, character analyses, essay topics and review questions, and selected bibliography.
This book is a theoretically oriented, comparative study of noun phrases and their semantic and morpho-syntactic properties. This is the first study that provides a comprehensive analysis of the nominal structure in Uzbek, and compares it with corresponding structures in other article and article-less languages. Uzbek nominals represent a fertile ground to test the universality of the DP hypothesis and to make an insightful contribution to an ongoing debate about the functional architecture of the nominal domain in languages with and without articles. The study shows that the ordering of various nominal suffixes in Uzbek reflects a rich functional structure, involving not only DP but also KP. The work also discusses elements such as determiners, demonstratives, quantifiers and adjectives, and positioning of these elements within the nominal domain. This study is especially useful for researchers interested in theoretical linguistics, comparative syntax and typology.
Dan Bollom believes there are no unimportant jobs. Thus, there are no unimportant people. In this refreshingly honest memoir, Bollom relates how this down-to-earth philosophy shaped his success in life. Throughout his early years in Oshkosh, Wisconsin, Bollom experienced first-hand the difficulties and sacrifices of the Great Depression and World War II, but he also enjoyed the simple pleasures of life. Whether it was the circus coming to town, hunting and fishing near their Spring Brook shanty for the family meal, or participating in the local softball team, Bollom learned valuable lessons about hard work, dedication, and the necessity of laughter. Bollom's persistence and drive to succeed paid off. He graduated from college and landed a job at Wisconsin Public Service as an accountant. With steady determination, he moved up the ranks through the years, married and had a family, and never lost sight of his goals, eventually achieving the rank of president and CEO of the company, a position he retired from in 1997. Candid and humorous, What Makes Dan Bollom So Tall? intimately shows how one man's success was not an end, but a never-ending journey.

Is your soul saved? A few of us have heard that our soul needs to be saved; however, many have not committed their soul to God. Why is this? The soul is important to our walk with God and is mentioned extensively throughout the Bible. This book identifies the workings of the soul of man-kind. God is bringing more revelation knowledge to this generation as we draw closer to Jesus's return. Will you be amongst the wise or the unwise? Surely the Lord GOD does nothing, unless He reveals His secret to His servants the prophets. (Amos 3:7) As long as the enemy can deceive us, he believes he can control our soul. For the accuser of our brethren, who accused them before our God day and night, has been cast down. (Revelations 12:10b) The enemy is the accuser and his desire is for us to sin, to dishonor, and offend God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge. Because you have rejected knowledge, I also will reject you from being priest for Me; Because you have forgotten the law of your God, I also will forget your children. (Hosea 4:6) The Lord is moving us to another level in Him. Many will reject His Word, His messenger, and will be deceived by the devil. Will you be deceived by the devil, the enemy of your soul?
