Thomas Sayre came with his family from England to Lynn, Massachusetts in the early 1630's. Among descendants of Thomas were clergymen, surgeons, attorneys, ambassadors, and representatives of almost every profession. Francis B., cowboy, professor of law, and ambassador, was son-in-law of former President Woodrow Wilson. Zelda was the wife of American novelist, F. Scott Fitzgerald, and subject of one of his books. David A. was silversmith, banker, and founder of Lexington's Sayre School. Many Sayre descendants were taken by wars in service to America and never had the chance to win recognition for their inherent abilities. SAYRE FAMILY another 100-years, in a large part, focuses on the early pioneers who came to or passed through the Onio Valley of West Virginia and Ohio. At least three direct descendants of Thomas had made settlements in that area by the Nineteenth Century. One, David Sayre, came from New Jersey about 1778, and left many descendants who still lived in that area at the beginning of the Twenty-first Century, The bulk of this genealogy covers those, while other Sayre families whose ancestral links were not discovered are also included. The three generations of ancestors above each family block makes tracing easier.

Justice Betrayed

A Double Killing in Old Santa Fe

By: Ralph Melnick

Librarian and historian Melnick (Williston Northampton School, Massachusetts) digs out details of the 1931 rape and murder of a young white woman in the New Mexico town, and the trial and execution of a black man for the crime. He says we can recognize from our own time the political corruption, media-induced hysteria, and moral indifference operating then. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR.

Coherence and Verification in Ethics

By: Ralph D. Ellis

This book is an attempt to come to grips with the problem of the epistemological basis of ethical beliefs by building on criticisms of approaches to this problem which have been attempted in the recent past. Because of the extensive discussions and criticism of these various alternatives, the book may be useful to all who are concerned with the epistemology of ethics. Included are criticisms of the prescriptivist and emotivist alternatives growing out of the logical positivist tradition; various forms of intuitionism; the now popular coherentist approach; the rationalism of Gewirth and other is-ought derivations; and phenomenology (including its intuitionistic manifestations, as in Hartmna, and its anthropologist ones as in Scheler). Although each of these schools is found insufficient to accomplish the task alone, certain elements in each of them are necessary components of a workable moral epistemology.

Aminoff's Diagnosis of Neuromuscular Disorders - E-book

By: Michael J. Aminoff,Jeffrey W. Ralph,Francis Walker

Succinct yet comprehensive, Aminoff's Diagnosis of Neuromuscular Disorders, 4th Edition, provides expert information and guidance on the clinical, electrodiagnostic, and imaging aspects of neuromuscular disorders. Fully updated, it reflects important advances in the field, including an improved understanding of the molecular and genetic basis of neuromuscular disease, an expanded use of next-generation genetic testing, refinements in electrodiagnosis, and the use of ultrasound imaging techniques to evaluate the peripheral nervous system. In-depth discussions of disease states, as well as the evidence supporting the use of electrodiagnostic and imaging techniques, moves this reference from simply answering the question "How?" to also answering "Why?" - Describes the range of clinical manifestations of individual neuromuscular diseases; the power and limitations of electrodiagnostic techniques as they relate to neuromuscular disorders; the place of genetic studies in the diagnosis and prognostication of these diseases; and the scope and utility of newer imaging procedures in detecting and localizing the underlying pathologic process. - Reviews neuromuscular physiology and the pathology of major diseases. - Provides a readable, well-illustrated synthesis of clinical and investigative techniques in diagnosing neuromuscular diseases, with concise guidance on how to conduct clinical, electrodiagnostic, and ultrasound evaluations and the findings in various disease states. - Covers a wide variety of electrodiagnostic and ultrasound procedures, including techniques for evaluating different individual nerves. - Features video clips of waveforms and of ultrasound images to illustrate key concepts. - An ideal resource for neuromuscular specialists, clinical neurologists, physiatrists, rehabilitation specialists, clinical neurophysiologists, and electromyographers, as well as trainees and those preparing for board certification in neurology, PM&R, neuromuscular medicine, clinical neurophysiology, and electrodiagnostic medicine. - Any additional digital ancillary content may publish up to 6 weeks following the publication date.

The Quote Verifier

Who Said What, Where, and When

By: Ralph Keyes

Our language is full of hundreds of quotations that are often cited but seldom confirmed. Ralph Keyes's The Quote Verifier considers not only classic misquotes such as "Nice guys finish last," and "Play it again, Sam," but more surprising ones such as "Ain't I a woman?" and "Golf is a good walk spoiled," as well as the origins of popular sayings such as "The opera ain't over till the fat lady sings," "No one washes a rented car," and "Make my day." Keyes's in-depth research routinely confounds widespread assumptions about who said what, where, and when. Organized in easy-to-access dictionary form, The Quote Verifier also contains special sections highlighting commonly misquoted people and genres, such as Yogi Berra and Oscar Wilde, famous last words, and misremembered movie lines. An invaluable resource for not just those with a professional need to quote accurately, but anyone at all who is interested in the roots of words and phrases, The Quote Verifier is not only a fascinating piece of literary sleuthing, but also a great read.

Empire, Science, and Economy in the Americas

By: Ralph Bauer,Jay Parini

The first thematic series published for American literature, THE WADSWORTH THEMES IN AMERICAN LITERATURE SERIES is currently comprised of 21 themes spanning the time period normally covered in the two-semester American literature survey course--1492 to the present. Each carefully edited booklet centers on a core issue of the period with attention given to the development of key themes. Each thematic booklet offers an introductory contextual essay, a variety of literary perspectives, headnotes and footnotes, along with a variety of visual elements. The first sequence of booklets, edited by Ralph Bauer, spans the colonial period from the arrival of Columbus in the New World through 1820, a time of immense fluidity and dynamic cultural exchange. Bauer is a pioneering scholar who takes a hemispheric approach to the era, looking at the crush of cultures--Spanish, English, Dutch, German, and French. Each of these European powers sent colonial missions across the Atlantic Ocean, and the collision of these cultures with each other and with the Native American population (itself diverse and complicated) was combustive.
