Huntington Harbor Lighthouse

By: Antonia S. Mattheou and Nancy Y. Moran

In the early days, Huntington, New York, was known as part of the Gold Coast of Long Island. It was a busy area boasting summer hotels and docking facilities. Steamboats brought crowds to Huntington from New York City for outdoor fun. Mariners took advantage of landmarks to guide their craft into channels until 1857, when the Lloyd Harbor Light Station was built on a sandspit to guard the entrance of both Lloyd and Huntington Harbors. In 1907, the US Congress appropriated $40,000 for the construction of a new lighthouse to replace the Lloyd Harbor Light Station, which proved to be ineffective for the navigation of vessels entering Huntington Harbor. The Venetian Renaissance-style structure was completed in 1912 and had the distinctive appearance of a small castle. Thanks to the enormous efforts of the Huntington Lighthouse Preservation Society, Inc., the beauty and uniqueness of the Huntington Harbor Lighthouse has been preserved.

Dark Deception (Defenders of Justice Book #2)

By: Nancy Mehl

Kate O'Brien's quiet life in small-town Shelter Cove, Arkansas is shaken when her past suddenly comes roaring back to life. Four years ago, she and her twin sister were attacked by an elusive serial killer. Only Kate survived, and she's been in witness protection ever since. When new evidence arises to suggest the convicted man wasn't the murderer, she's subpoenaed to testify in the new trial. Afraid to go back into that world, Kate only agrees if Tony DeLuca, the deputy Marshal who protected her during the original trial, escorts her to St. Louis. Tony readily takes on the assignment; Kate's beauty and inner strength made more of an impression on him than he expected. But when Kate's safety is threatened, Tony must race against the clock to keep her alive and put this ugly case to rest before anyone else gets killed.

David Wendel Yandell

Physician of Old Louisville

By: Nancy Disher Baird

David Wendel Yandell was the most distinguished physician of a family noted for its contributions to the medical profession over a period of generations. Like his father before him, Yandell taught for many years at the Medical Department of the University of Louisville. His years as a Confederate surgeon impressed upon him the horrifying consequences of the inadequate preparation of most physicians. Concerned especially about the need for practical training, Yandell waged a twenty-year campaign to expand clinic facilities and introduce intern programs at his own school and across the nation. He also fought for higher professional standards on a national level as president and active member of the American Medical Association and other organizations. David Wendel Yandell is an illuminating and well-rounded picture of the strengths and weaknesses of nineteenth-century medicine and of the practitioner, teacher, and leader who shaped the modern medical profession in Kentucky and the nation.

THE WOOLVERTON FAMILY: 1693 – 1850 and Beyond, Volume II

By: David A. Macdonald,Nancy N. McAdams

Charles Woolverton was in Burlington County, New Jersey, by 1693, and appears in records there and in Hunterdon County until 1727. David Macdonald and Nancy McAdams have traced Charles' descendants to the seventh generation, by which time they had spread out to many parts of the country ... This is a beautifully crafted genealogy. The format is easy to follow, and the documentation is impressive. The compilers have carefully explained their handling of problem areas, including the need to refute longstanding family lore about the immigrant ... This is an exemplary work, which descendants will certainly value and other genealogists would be well advised to study. -- Excerpts from a review published in the April 2003 issue of The New York Genealogical and Biographical Record and reprinted with permission of the author, Harry Macy, Jr. and The New York Genealogical and Biographical Society.

Conflict Management and Dialogue in Higher Education

Conflict Management and Dialogue in Higher Education

A Global Perspective (2nd Edition)

By: Nancy T. Watson,Karan L. Watson,Christine A. Stanley

This book addresses an important topic - Conflict, mediation and dialogue. Conflicts are a part of life. Although many people assume conflicts are negative and, therefore, should be avoided, conflict is truly neutral. The engagement in conflict is what can be constructive or destructive. There are many positive outcomes experienced when a conflict is well managed, hence the critical role of this book. For instance, most change is driven by some level of conflict. You must learn, grow and develop effective conflict management skills as a way to manage change. Thus, the conflicts we deal with in our personal lives and in the workplace are essential to our development and our organizations' healthy development. However, if managed poorly, some conflicts can escalate to the point that they can destroy individuals or organizations. As illustrated in this book, the key to managing conflicts is to understand conflicts; expect conflicts, and manage conflicts before they escalate into destructive or costly loss of personnel, diminished climate or lead to lawsuits. The book provides one of the growing and recognized methods of dealing with conflicts - mediation and dialogue. The contents of this book reflect areas of importance addressed in mediation training: alternative dispute resolution practices, conflict management intervention options, models of thinking about conflict, the mediation format, and the skill set needed by a strong conflict management and mediator. Readers are challenged to reflect upon their biases and beliefs that may negatively impact the mediation process.

Freedom Is Not Enough

The Opening of the American Workplace

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

Freedom Is Not Enough

The Opening of the American Workplace

By: Nancy MacLean

In the 1950s, the exclusion of women and of black and Latino men from higher-paying jobs was so universal as to seem normal to most Americans. Today, diversity in the workforce is a point of pride. How did such a transformation come about? In this bold and groundbreaking work, Nancy MacLean shows how African-American and later Mexican-American civil rights activists and feminists concluded that freedom alone would not suffice: access to jobs at all levels is a requisite of full citizenship. Tracing the struggle to open the American workplace to all, MacLean chronicles the cultural and political advances that have irrevocably changed our nation over the past fifty years. Freedom Is Not Enough reveals the fundamental role jobs play in the struggle for equality. We meet the grassroots activists—rank-and-file workers, community leaders, trade unionists, advocates, lawyers—and their allies in government who fight for fair treatment, as we also witness the conservative forces that assembled to resist their demands. Weaving a powerful and memorable narrative, MacLean demonstrates the life-altering impact of the Civil Rights Act and the movement for economic advancement that it fostered. The struggle for jobs reached far beyond the workplace to transform American culture. MacLean enables us to understand why so many came to see good jobs for all as the measure of full citizenship in a vital democracy. Opening up the workplace, she shows, opened minds and hearts to the genuine inclusion of all Americans for the first time in our nation’s history.

Stormy Hill's Legacy

By: Nancy Clarke

Now that Lightning, the colt she raised from an orphan, is back, Ann Collins sees her chance to restore her family?s acclaimed position in horse racing. Many years ago, her grandfather nearly bankrupted Stormy Hill, the Collins family thoroughbred breeding farm. Ann?s well-bred black colt is now two years old, and in her eyes, has all the makings of a champion. Ann tries to convince her father and their horse trainer, Scotty, that Lightning has what it takes to be a stakes winner. But before he can race, Lightning must overcome many obstacles, including finding a qualified rider. During the time the colt was stolen, he was mistreated by the men who took him. Now Lightning is afraid of all male riders and will only trust Ann on his back. Ann would love to be the one to ride Lightning to victory, but she lives at a time when women cannot be professional jockeys. She hopes that her friend, Ted, can ride the horse in the big race, one which no other Stormy Hill horse has ever won. Will Ann be able to ensure Stormy Hill?s Legacy in the greatest proving ground of them all, the Kentucky Derby?

Stormy Hill's Challenge

By: Nancy Bodine

Part of the continuing series of Stormy Hill novels, Stormy Hill’s Challenge is set in the 1960s on the Stormy Hill horse farm in Lexington, Kentucky. Young Ann has had her moments of glory with her horse, Lightning, more than fulfilling her lifelong dreams. Now her friend Ted has dreams of his own, to do something to make his horse, Si’ad, famous in his own right. Si’ad is already well known as Lightning’s sire, but Ted wants more. When a young couple comes to breed to Si’ad, they discuss the world of endurance racing, a sport in which Arabians excel. What better way to prove Si’ad’s greatness than testing him on the famous Tevis Cup ride in California? Held annually, this 100-mile race follows a trail that climbs mountains and descends into steep, hot canyons, and it must be completed within twenty-four hours. It would take a year-long commitment to condition Si’ad for such a race, but commitment to his horse is something Ted has in abundance. In the coming year they will know heartbreak, and success will be tested many times, bonding them even stronger. Even Ann is drawn into the sport, and together they set out for the ride of their lives. The endurance motto is: “To finish is to win.” In a race where only half the entrants finish, who will make it to the end?

Stormy Hill's Gift

By: Nancy Bodine

On a remote ranch near the Ozarks, a young girl sits glued to an ancient TV set, as the Belmont, the third leg of the Triple Crown, unfolds. Thrilled beyond belief, she witnesses history in the making as Ann Collins pilots her beautiful black colt, Stormy Lightning, to victory. But Janie Bailey experiences more than a fan’s worship of horse racing. The previous winter, during a severe snowstorm, a black colt mysteriously appeared in their back pasture. When no owner surfaced, for a brief time he was hers. Then a fateful mishap on a trail ride in the mountains sent him fleeing back into the wilderness. When the cameras pan a close-up of Ann’s champion, Janie gasps, for she knows irrevocably that her colt, Storm, and this now famous racehorse are one in the same! The idea seems so preposterous, will anyone believe her? Living so far away, how can she contact Ann to let her know about Lightning’s past? Janie has an even bigger secret. Lightning left a piece of himself behind. Earlier that year, a paint mare belonging to her family gave birth to a black and white colt, an image of his sire. Wouldn’t Ann want to hear about this, too? What will the future hold for Janie and her promising gift horse? Stormy Hill’s Gift is the fifth book in The Stormy Hill series.
