Slowly she stepped down from the truck, eyes scanning the surroundings for a sign of something pleasant but seeing only scrub, dirt and a small, grey shed. As a young and genteel English woman, Stacy is a wife with a past of perceived abandonment. She goes back to a lifestyle of hardship, isolation and limited facilities, working beside her young husband to clear and carve out a home and farm from a virgin block of bush. In this remote environment, with the loving support of her husband, companionship of people from a past era and her close friend, she endures climatic extremes and frightening wildlife. Can she build a new, loved Stacy in the environment of her new home and a town brimming with history? A tribute to the brave women who left behind comfortable homes to support their returned soldiers. Isolated but happy, they worked together with their husbands on soldiersettlement farms in their quest to build something to call their own.

God’s Forgotten Fools

They Were ‘Active in Their Own Ruin’

By: Rosemary J. Goring

This is a story about one of over a thousand clergymen turned out of the Church of England in 1622 for refusing to comply with its demands. They endured persecution, betrayal and sometimes imprisonment - which is why they were said to have been ‘active in their own ruin’. It is largely based on the life of the rector of Brightling in East Sussex who, after his ejection, remained in the parish, caring for the people after plague had spread from London and his successor had fled. It shows how the life and loves of a whole family were affected by the nationwide upheaval.

Wealth and Rebellion

Elsie Clews Parsons, Anthropologist and Folklorist

By: Rosemary Lévy Zumwalt

Boss-lady had a unique position in Boss-man's, an old, retired, pimp's, whorehouse. She was the madam in charge of keeping the girls on their toes, or backs, as it were. And to top things off, Boss-man had given her permission to throw weekly parties in which she was allowed to freak with any of the women she chose. She being a recently released lesbian from prison, took full advantage of Boss's gratuity.Everything was running fine until the elderly Boss-man suffered a fatal heart attack, some saying, because of the pressure he was under to sell the Mob's dope, which they forced on him, and he didn't know how to handle, while fearing the wrath of the organization if he messed up.Immediately after the death of Boss-man, Lady, while grieving his loss, wasn't sure she could fill his shoes. But with the aid of Old Ben, one of Boss's life long friends, and barber shop owner, she pulled herself together and managed to keep the whorehouse open, even getting more girls to join her stable.Once Boss-lady found her feet, she became unsatisfied with only running one place. She was ambitious. She, while using money Boss-man left her, purchased another house and hired another, retired, pimp, to run it.The question is, would her ambition be the catalyst, which would bring her criminal life crashing down on her head?

Introducing Greek Philosophy

Introducing Greek Philosophy

By: Rosemary Wright

Aimed at students of classics and of philosophy who would like a taste of the subject before being committed to a full course and at those who have already started and need to find their bearings in what may seem at first a complex maze of names and schools, "Introducing Greek Philosophy" is a concise, lively, philosophically aware introduction to ancient Greek philosophy. The book begins with the Milesians in Asia Minor before moving over to the developments in the western Greek world, then focusing on Socrates, Plato and Aristotle in Athens, finishing with the Hellenistic schools and their arrival in Rome, where the main ideas are set out in the Latin poetry of Lucretius and the prose of Cicero.The book eschews the method of most histories of ancient philosophy of addressing one thinker after another through the centuries. Instead, after a basic mapping of the territory, it takes the great themes that the Greeks were engaged in from the earliest times, and looks at them individually, their development in argument and counter-argument, from the beginnings of recorded Greek history, through the various upheavals of tyrannies, democracies, oligarchies and kingships, to their introduction into Rome in the first century BC.
