On Being Old

with Acceptance and Gratitude

By: Mary Jo MacIntyre,Nadine Ann Shirley,Sandra (Sam) Studiner

On Being Old: with Acceptance and Gratitude By: Mary Jo MacIntyre, Nadine Ann Shirley, Sandra (Sam) Studliner On Being Old (with Acceptance and Gratitude) is a true story of how three friends happened to get together after many years of total separation from each other. Mary Jo, Nadine, and Sam took up right where they left off, talking and laughing, questioning and filling each other in about their lives. They discussed the feelings that come with aging, the fears, and the physical changes. They communicated more honestly than in their younger days and covered topics that they had not in the past. Read this heartwarming collection of personal stories, from three totally different people with totally different views on most subjects, and perhaps you will identify with one of the characters and find a path and companionship into yourself as they did.

My Montana

By: Nadine Ann Shirley

About the Book Nadine Ann Shirley is a mother, retired mental health therapist, and author with very deep roots in the state of Montana. In My Montana, Shirley shares many memories of her own Montana experiences together with those of family and friends. In addition, she takes her readers on a rather extensive tour of Montana, covering both east and west with a dash of central Montana too. A story based in and about Montana wouldn’t be complete without its history, the highlights of which are on virtually every page. Shirley’s fondness for her home state becomes ever so evident throughout the entirety of My Montana. About the Author Nadine Ann Shirley currently lives independently in her favorite place in the whole world, a cabin on the Stillwater River considered to be in Nye, Montana. She has been blessed with the companionship of her two Bichons, Koko and Kasper, until very recently when they died within three weeks of each other.

Historical Schools of Latimer County, Oklahoma

By: Nadine Walker,Leland Walker

This book is a historical record of schools from the late 1800's to contemporary times in Latimer County in Southeastern Oklahoma. It contains pictures from past generations and describes the hard times of the settlers and indigenous peoples of that part of Oklahoma. It tells the stories of their lives and the lives of their children through letters, articles and pictures taken of simple schools, churches and homes. It was a time of basic living and arduous labor in the local coal mines, and on farms and ranches. While lives were often tempered by the elements of nature, it only toughened the resolve of early settlers and Indians that helped build the great American Heartland.

The Bold and the Brave

A History of Women in Science and Engineering

By: Monique Frize,Peter R. D. Frize,Nadine Faulkner

The author introduces the reader to key concepts and debates that contextualize the obstacles women have faced and continue to face in the fields of science and engineering. She focuses on the history of women's education in mathematics and science through the ages, from antiquity to the Enlightenment. While opportunities for women were often purposely limited, she reveals how many women found ways to explore science outside of formal education. The book examines the lives and work of three women - Sophie Germain, Mileva Einstein, and Rosalind Franklin - that provide excellent examples of how women's contributions to science have been dismissed, ignored or stolen outright. She concludes with an in-depth look at women's participation in science and engineering throughout the twentieth century.

Spinning Blues Into Gold

Spinning Blues Into Gold

The Chess Brothers and the Legendary Chess Records

By: Nadine Cohodas

Sun Records gave us rock and roll, Motown Records gave us pop soul, and Chess Records gave us the blues. Chess was label for Muddy Waters, Howlin' Wolf, Chuck Berry, Etta James, and Bo Diddley--and in this critcially acclaimed history we learn the full story of this legendary label. The greatest artists who sang and played the blues made their mark with Leonard and Phil Chess, whose Chicago-based record company was synonymous with the sound that swept up from the South, embraced the Windy City, and spread out like wildfire into mid-century America. Spinning Blues into Gold is the impeccably researched story of the men behind the music and the remarkable company they created. Chess Records--and later Checkers, Argo, and Cadet Records--was built by Polish immigrant Jews, brothers who saw the blues as a unique business opportunity. From their first ventures, a liquor store and then a nightclub, they promoted live entertainment. And parlayed that into the first pressings sold out of car trunks on long junkets through the midsection of the country, ultimately expanding their empire to include influential radio stations. The story of the Chess brothers is a very American story of commerce in the service of culture. Long on chutzpah, Leonard and Phil Chess went far beyond their childhoods as the sons of a scrap-metal dealer. They changed what America listened to; the artists they promoted planted the seeds of rock 'n' roll--and are still influencing music today. In this book, Cohodas expertly captures the rich and volatile mix of race, money, and recorded music. She also takes us deep into the world of independent record producers, sometimes abrasive and always aggressive men striving to succeed. Leonard and Phil Chess worked hand-in-glove with disenfranchised black artists, the intermittent charges of exploitation balanced by the reality of a common purpose that eventually brought fame to many if not most of the parties concerned. From beginning to end, as we find in these pages, the lives of the Chess brothers were socially, financially, and creatively entwined with those of the artists they believed in.

She Came From Beyond!

A Novel

By: Nadine Darling

“Very funny . . . An involving story that brings together the important things in life?love, romance, family, parenthood, and obscure pop culture references.” —Frank Conniff, writer and actor, Mystery Science Theater 3000 Easy Hardwick has it made. At just about thirty, she’s got a tumbledown cottage in small-town Oregon and an uncomplicated acting gig as the space-babe eye candy on a sci-fi parody show. She spends her downtime online, bickering with fans and fellow culture vultures about film trivia and relishing her minor-but-satisfying celebrity. Enter Harrison. What begins as a jocular online flirtation spills into a messy IRL affair, and Easy finds herself pregnant with twins and sharing her home with the love of her life . . . plus the teenage daughter, baby son, and slightly unhinged soon-to-be ex-wife she kind of didn’t totally know he had . . . Easy may play a space ditz in hot pants on TV, but her voice is restlessly intelligent, negotiating the absurdities of a world lived onscreen and online and striving to make sense of heady problems: love affairs, ex-wives, teen girls, eating disorders, and whether cannibalistic flies count as zombies. Like the captive great white shark that sets Easy’s story in motion, Nadine Darling’s writing has got teeth. Her pointed, precise dialogue, empathetic insights, and live-wire observations elevate this novel from zany domestic drama to outlandish comic masterpiece. “Darling entertains with a dry, witty humor.” —Booklist “While the circumstances around Easy spin wildly out of control, it’s her grounded-yet-comical narration that makes the book stand out. Her snarky asides and darkly funny quips will make readers laugh out loud, even in the face of death, divorce, mental illness, and heartbreak . . . a debut novel that’s truly like nothing else . . . a weirdly delightful read.” —Kirkus Reviews
