Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

The village of Hudson greets visitors with signs stating, "Pride of the Prairie." The first settlers arrived in Hudson Township in 1829, settling near a Potawatomi Indian village about 1 mile west of where Hudson now stands. The boulder identifying the last stand of the Potawatomi village in McLean County was placed near the village's origin in 1920. The boyhood home of the famous author and philosopher Elbert Hubbard, built in 1857, still stands at Broadway and Walnut Streets. Constructed in 1929, the man-made Lake Bloomington offers both residential and recreation areas. The Evergreen Lake area includes a county park with camping, picnic areas, and a beach. In Hudson, readers will catch glimpses of these things and more: the past 175 years of people, agriculture, organizations, churches, and schools--all built on the strong foundation of the early settlers.

The Little White Box of Karatax

By: Sue’z

Once Charlotte discovers the little white box glistening in the sand on the beach across the road from their new home, she and her two older siblings, Chloe and Hudson, come together with the most unassuming couple ever before to be met. These two new friends, by the way, are named Max and Minty and are found to be living inside the little white box, which means they’re only one centimeter tall. Seriously! How astonished are the three children when they realize that Max and Minty, the inhabitants of the little white box, have actually been planning and waiting to be discovered just the way it happened. Together with Max and Minty, they learn to begin channeling their gifts of Karatax awaiting them, and over time, they become acquainted with their new paths. Now although the children are human just like us, Max and Minty are not; they are known as nuumahs. They dwell in a small town named Karrak, along with so many other nuumahs, who have been all together involved in a war that has been raging for at least a millennia. This battle has been waged against an evil foe called suulids, which is the negative of themselves. So just as humans have good and bad folk all around us, so do they, except in Karrak they have an actual name for them. When the children realize they have a major part to play not only by being partners with Max and Minty’s Karatax but also because they’re human, it actually adds to their strength, especially when the Karatax begins to enchant them one by one—beginning with their destinies! Max and Minty continue on with the fight between the nuumahs and the suulids, slowly bringing in these three gifted children to become as powerful as they are. The children hold an ultimate strength of their own against the suulids just by being human, combined with the Karatax awaiting them. Max and Minty finally feel that there’s an end to this perplexing war, with a door opening for these three brave children. This gives them hope!

Lethal Friendship

A Mother's Battle to Put--and Keep--a Serial Killer Behind Bars

By: Sue Young

Lethal Friendship will break your heart. Yet you will be encouraged--and educated--by Sue Young's commitment to seeking justice. It's a story told with difficulty, yet told well." --Zig Ziglar, Author and Motivational Teacher "Sue Young endured one of the most profound tragedies and traumas a mother can face: the abduction and murder of her daughter and then, twenty years later, the specter of early release of her daughter's killer. This book is her personal account of her ordeal and her faith and her effectiveness. Ms. Young helped mobilize the community and her state to keep a killer contained. And she did it in a way that encourages all of us to fight for justice and humanity. This is a riveting book that reads like a novel but is too, too true--a remarkable and inspirational work by a remarkable and inspirational woman." --Dr. Frank Ochberg, Adjunct Professor of Criminal Justice and Journalism; Clinical Professor of Psychiatry at Michigan State University; Former Director of Mental Health for the State of Michigan "Sue has the facts dead bang accurate, and the telling of the story is done not only remarkably well, but with a degree of honesty that is almost like a reporter's detachment." --Judge Peter Houk, Chief Judge 30th Judicial Circuit Court--retired

Girls Coming to Tech!

A History of American Engineering Education for Women

By: Amy Sue Bix

How women coped with both formal barriers and informal opposition to their entry into the traditionally masculine field of engineering in American higher education. Engineering education in the United States was long regarded as masculine territory. For decades, women who studied or worked in engineering were popularly perceived as oddities, outcasts, unfeminine (or inappropriately feminine in a male world). In Girls Coming to Tech!, Amy Bix tells the story of how women gained entrance to the traditionally male field of engineering in American higher education. As Bix explains, a few women breached the gender-reinforced boundaries of engineering education before World War II. During World War II, government, employers, and colleges actively recruited women to train as engineering aides, channeling them directly into defense work. These wartime training programs set the stage for more engineering schools to open their doors to women. Bix offers three detailed case studies of postwar engineering coeducation. Georgia Tech admitted women in 1952 to avoid a court case, over objections by traditionalists. In 1968, Caltech male students argued that nerds needed a civilizing female presence. At MIT, which had admitted women since the 1870s but treated them as a minor afterthought, feminist-era activists pushed the school to welcome more women and take their talent seriously. In the 1950s, women made up less than one percent of students in American engineering programs; in 2010 and 2011, women earned 18.4% of bachelor's degrees, 22.6% of master's degrees, and 21.8% of doctorates in engineering. Bix's account shows why these gains were hard won.

Women and the Anglican Church Congress 1861-1938

Space, Place and Agency

By: Sue Anderson-Faithful,Catherine Holloway

This book covers new ground in its focus on the Anglican Church congresses 1861-1938 as a public space in which the views of notable women were widely disseminated. It celebrates the contribution made by women to public life and discourse on womanhood as platform speakers, and commemorates the presence of the large numbers of women who joined congresses as audience members. Original research draws on extensive primary sources from official records, diaries and the press to capture women's views and voices and to evoke congress as a communicative social space and a window into topical affairs. Women and the Anglican Church Congress 1861-1938 examines the roles of women in the Church and reflects on how women with a sense of vocation negotiated contemporary attitudes to their positions and spirituality. The book also explores how women's secular aspirations towards citizenship in the context of poverty, work, temperance, eugenics, class and suffrage played out at congress.

“I Was the Only Woman”

Women and Planning in Canada

By: Sue Hendler

“I was the only woman.” These words appear again and again in the stories of women planners working in Canada from the 1940s to the 1970s. Despite their small numbers, women were active in the Community Planning Association of Canada and the Town Planning Institute of Canada (later called the Canadian Institute of Planners) during those years. This book tells their stories, expanding our understanding of what constitutes “planning” and who counts as “planners.” It challenges us to re-evaluate not only the profession’s past, but also its role in creating a more inclusive and equitable future.

Ghost in Time

A Crime over a Hundred Years Old Resurfaces Along with an Explosive Discovery...

By: Sue Gilbert

While on a vacation in England, Caitlin O’Connor finds an antique journal. Soon after she returns to the States, she adapts the journal’s handwritten notes into a movie script and submits it to Piermont Studios. The studio gives the work a green light and she is hired and now pursues her dream as a screenwriter. Piermont decides to cover the movie studio and hires an investigator to trace the journal’s history. After a shocking turn of events, the journal is revealed to be over a hundred years old, and it is believed that it was indeed written by none other than the fictionalized detective Sherlock Holmes’s friend and assistant, Dr. John Watson. The enigmatic Arthur Kensington is the movie’s new producer. Kensington believes the yellow-tinged leather book is a link to a hidden past that reveals a century old crime. Tony Langdon is the Piermont security detective in charge of investigating the journal’s origin. Although, at first a skeptic, he becomes absorbed with his own analysis and his need to know the truth. After the movie wraps, the actors, crew, and other involved individuals begin to believe in Caitlin’s mysterious journal. As truths are unveiled, it seems the so called fictional Watson, and the mysterious tale is genuine and tied to a dangerous and cryptic cover up in the distant past.

Climbing Out of Depression

A Practical Guide to Real and Immediate Help

By: Sue Atkinson

A warm, simple, and practical guide to real and immediate help for those lost in the darkness of depression?written by someone who has experienced it and found a way out. According to the National Institute of Mental Health, more than 17 million Americans suffer from depression. For many of these millions, climbing back out of the pit of gloom seems almost impossible. Depression often leaves its victims feeling paralyzed, numb, and alone. Climbing Out of Depression is a guide for everyone who is looking for practical help. Unlike clinical books that approach depression from a theoretical, academic viewpoint, what makes this book distinctive is the fact that the author herself has suffered from depression for many years. Atkinson does not write as an expert, or as a depression counselor, but as someone who knows the feelings from close personal experience. Climbing Out of Depression is a handbook to offer immediate help for the mind, the body, and?with the author?s gentle spiritual touch?also the soul. Topics covered in Climbing Out of Depression include the causes of depression; how to take action when life becomes too difficult; dealing with negativity; overcoming fear, worry, and panic; understanding anger; coping with loss; and much more. Climbing Out of Depression is a tried-and-true tested book that incorporates strategies, tips, and success stories, many of the author herself. Written in easily grasped sections designed to be read for the limited concentration spans that often accompany depression, Atkinson leads the reader through the ?why? of depression and then offers ?how-to? suggestions based on firsthand proven techniques. Reading this book is similar to having a conversation with a compassionate friend, one who has ?been there? and knows what to say and how to help.

Dancing between Hope and Despair

Trauma, Attachment and the Therapeutic Relationship

By: Sue Wright

Why is hope so fundamental to our existence? Hope is increasingly being acknowledged as an important factor both for people's resilience and for positive therapeutic outcomes. In considering this and many other questions, this evocative textbook introduces the reader to the repeated shifting, or 'dance', between hope and despair that is so often encountered by practitioners working with profoundly traumatised individuals. This book brings a sharp focus to the ways in which therapeutic relationships can draw individuals out of the constant oscillation between light and dark. It provides an insightful and thoughtful discussion not just about despair itself, but about how to be with despair. Informed by the author's own years of experience in the field of psychotherapy, this engaging and stimulating book provides practical guidance on how students, trainees and practitioners can inspire fresh hope in deeply troubled clients.

Choctaws and Missionaries in Mississippi, 1818-1918

By: Clara Sue Kidwell

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

Choctaws and Missionaries in Mississippi, 1818-1918

By: Clara Sue Kidwell

The present-day Choctaw communities in central Mississippi are a tribute to the ability of the Indian people both to adapt to new situations and to find refuge against the outside world through their uniqueness. Clara Sue Kidwell, whose great-great-grandparents migrated from Mississippi to Indian Territory along the Trail of Tears in 1830, here tells the story of those Choctaws who chose not to move but to stay behind in Mississippi. As Kidwell shows, their story is closely interwoven with that of the missionaries who established the first missions in the area in 1818. While the U.S. government sought to “civilize” Indians through the agency of Christianity, many Choctaw tribal leaders in turn demanded education from Christian missionaries. The missionaries allied themselves with these leaders, mostly mixed-bloods; in so doing, the alienated themselves from the full-blood elements of the tribe and thus failed to achieve widespread Christian conversion and education. Their failure contributed to the growing arguments in Congress and by Mississippi citizens that the Choctaws should be move to the West and their territory opened to white settlement. The missionaries did establish literacy among the Choctaws, however, with ironic consequences. Although the Treaty of Dancing Rabbit Creek in 1830 compelled the Choctaws to move west, its fourteenth article provided that those who wanted to remain in Mississippi could claim land as individuals and stay in the state as private citizens. The claims were largely denied, and those who remained were often driven from their lands by white buyers, yet the Choctaws maintained their communities by clustering around the few men who did get title to lands, by maintaining traditional customs, and by continuing to speak the Choctaw language. Now Christian missionaries offered the Indian communities a vehicle for survival rather than assimilation.

R Is For Ricochet

A Kinsey Millhone Novel

By: Sue Grafton

In this #1 New York Times bestseller in Sue Grafton's Alphabet series, private investigator Kinsey Millhone has her hands full when a job that should be easy money takes a turn for the worse. Reba Lafferty was a daughter of privilege, the only child of an adoring father. Nord Lafferty was already in his fifties when Reba was born, and he could deny her nothing. Over the years, he quietly settled her many scrapes with the law, but wasn't there for her when she was convicted of embezzlement and sent to the California Institution for Women. Now, at thirty-two, she's about to be paroled, having served twenty-two months of a four-year sentence. Her father wants to be sure Reba stays straight, stays home and away from the drugs, the booze, and the gamblers... It seems a straightforward assignment for Kinsey: babysit Reba until she settles in, make sure she follows all the niceties of her parole. Maybe a week’s work. Nothing untoward—the woman seems remorseful and friendly. And the money is good. But life is never that simple, and Reba is out of prison less than twenty-four hours when one of her old crowd comes circling round...

How to Survive Death and Other Inconveniences

By: Sue William Silverman

Many are haunted and obsessed by their own eventual deaths, but perhaps no one as much as Sue William Silverman. This thematically linked collection of essays charts Silverman’s attempt to confront her fears of that ultimate unknown. Her dread was fomented in part by a sexual assault, hidden for years, that led to an awareness that death and sex are in some ways inextricable, an everyday reality many women know too well. Through gallows humor, vivid realism, and fantastical speculation, How to Survive Death and Other Inconveniences explores this fear of death and the author’s desire to survive it. From cruising New Jersey’s industry-blighted landscape in a gold Plymouth to visiting the emergency room for maladies both real and imagined to suffering the stifling strictness of an intractable piano teacher, Silverman guards her memories for the same reason she resurrects archaic words—to use as talismans to ward off the inevitable. Ultimately, Silverman knows there is no way to survive death physically. Still, through language, commemoration, and metaphor, she searches for a sliver of transcendent immortality.

Shaping the News

Waitangi Day on Television

By: Sue Abel

This is an unusual study of the way in which New Zealand television presents local news. It takes a well-known and often controversial annual event, the Waitangi Day commemorations, and explores in considerable detail how this has been handled from 1990 to 1995. As well as giving an illuminating picture of how television news is produced, it also offers insights into the way in which Maori issues are treated by mainly Pakeha news teams and the powerful if often unconscious shaping of attitudes towards race relations and biculturalism presented by television news programmes.

S is for Silence

A Kinsey Millhone Novel

By: Sue Grafton

California private investigator Kinsey Millhone is hired to solve a decades-old cold case in this “undeniably entertaining” (Los Angeles Times) #1 New York Times bestseller from Sue Grafton. Cases don't get much colder than that of Violet Sullivan, who disappeared from her rural California town in 1953, leaving behind an abusive husband and a seven-year-old named Daisy. But PI Kinsey Millhone has promised the now adult Daisy she'll try her best to locate Violet, dead or alive. All signs point to a runaway wife—the clothes that disappeared; the secret stash of money Violet bragged about; the brazen flirtations she indulged in with local men, including some married ones. Kinsey tries to pick up a trail by speaking to those who remember Violet—and perhaps were more involved in her life than they let on. But the trail could lead her somewhere very dangerous. Because the case may have gone cold, but some people's feelings about Violet Sullivan still run as hot as ever...

"L" is for Lawless

A Kinsey Millhone Novel

By: Sue Grafton

Get ready for one of Kinsey Millhone's "wildest adventures yet" (San Francisco Examiner) from #1 New York Times bestselling author Sue Grafton Kinsey's skills are about to be sorely tested. She is about to meet her duplicitous match in a couple of world-class prevaricators who quite literally take her for the ride of her life. "L" Is for Lawless: Call it Kinsey Millhone in bad company. Call it a mystery without a murder, a treasure hunt without a map, a quest novel with truly mixed-up motives. Call it the return of Kinsey as bad girl-- quick-witted and quicksilvery, smart-mouthed and smart-alecky-- poking her nose into everyone's dirty laundry as she joins up with a modern-day Bonnie and Clyde in an Our Gang comedy that will take her halfway across the country and leave her with a major headache and an empty bank balance. America's favorite borderline delinquent is back with her one-liners on tap and her energy level on high, romping through her fastest and funniest adventure in this, her twelfth foray into the alphabet of crime.
