In Spite of . . . Everything

A Young Lady’S Guide to Those Who Came Before

By: Tom Barnaba

It is an understatement to say that women are real people with true and great abilities just like men, yet it does seem like forever that we have been debating the rights of women and how they match up against the rights of men. By every reckoning, there is no blockage to the total equality of women to men, yet again, there it is. In spite of everything that has been accomplished, there still exists somewhat of a prejudice. In spite of this prejudice, young women need to know about those great, sometimes not-too-well-known, women who have pushed and prodded and fought like crazy to get todays women to a spot that would have been unheard of only a relatively short time agowomen who deserve the highest praise, and placed in the highest echelons of respect and honor. And even in politics, women have been able to bring more choices for the voters, with more women being elected as mayors, to county and state legislatures, executive offices, congress, and beyond. And despite the hectic pace and all the infighting, there have been far fewer who have been forced to resign because of incompetence or criminality. Many of the women discussed in these pages could have been even more useful and helpful had they not had faced that wordtradition. Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Susan B. Anthony were some team. Their organizational skills and tireless efforts could not have been met with failure. It goes back to Stanton calling a womens rights convention in Seneca Falls, New York, in 1848. Someday we will truly be a land of equality, practicing what it preaches, and the women will get us there. Hopefully, this book will encourage young women of today to keep up the good fight.

Colorado's Healthcare Heritage

A Chronology of the Nineteenth and Twentieth Centuries Volume One - 1800-1899

By: Thomas J. Sherlock,Tom Sherlock

In the early days on the Colorado frontier, women took care of family and neighbors because accepting that "we're all in this together" was the only realistic survival strategy-on the high plains, along the Front Range, in the mountain towns, and on the Western Slope. As dangerous occupations became fundamental to Colorado's economy, if they were injured or got sick there was no one to care for the young men who worked as miners, steel workers, cowboys, and railroad construction workers in remote parts of Colorado. So physicians, surgeons, nurses, Catholic Sisters, Reform and Orthodox Jews, Protestants, and other humanitarians established hospitals and-when Colorado became a mecca for people with tuberculosis-sanatoriums. Those pioneers and the communities they served created our community-based humanitarian healthcare tradition. These stories about our Wild West heritage honor the legacy of our 19th-century healthcare pioneers and will inspire and entertain 21st-century readers. Because we can be inspired only if we understand the facts-and because facts are more likely to be understood when presented in context-this chronology includes national and international developments that establish an indispensable frame of reference for understanding how our pioneers created the local-community-based healthcare system that we've inherited.

There’s vineyards, Carl Yastrzemski, Joey Buttafuoco, Roy Campanella, ice cream guys Ben & Jerry, Guy Lombardo, NFL Hall of Famer Jim Brown, and mysterious Plum Island. Let’s not forget signer of the Declaration of Independence William Floyd, Stanford White, aviation and space pioneers and engineers, piano man Billy Joel, Jerry Seinfeld, William Cullen Bryant, JP Morgan, Leroy Grumman, and the birth of suburbia at Levittown. And what about Boomer Esaison, William Sidney Mount, the legendary Gold Coast mansions, and Mariah Carey? How about Bob Costas, Harry Chapin, Billy Crystal, John Coltrane, Jennifer Capriati, the wonderful Sarah & Emily Hughes, Brookhaven National Laboratory, Edie Falco, Julius (Dr. J) Erving? Rod Steiger, Debbie Gibson, Lindsay Lohan, and Natalie Portman are natives. The Miracle Mile, Tony Danza, Telly Savalas, Rosie O’Donnell, Kevin James, and Roosevelt Field are part of its make up. Howard Stern, the Amityville horror, Michael Crichton, Alan Alda, Isabella Rossellini, and Jennifer Lopez & Marc Anthony are all part of what is Long Island, and can boast of George M. Cohan, the Shinnecock nation, Perry Como, Alan King, Brian Dennehy, John Philip Sousa, Susan Lucci, George Kennedy, Vinny Testaverde, Otto Kahn, and the United States Merchant Marine Academy. Victoria Gotti, August Belmont, Jessica Hahn, and William K. Vanderbilt have added to the lore. There’s Eisenhower Park, Walter Chrysler, whaling museums, Maude Adams, Fire Island, Linda Lovelace, Dick Cavett, Harry Guggenheim, Christine Jorgensen, Dutch Schultz, and ducks! Eli Wallach & Anne Jackson, Al Oerter, Patti Lupone, Eddie Murphy, Craig Biggio, Ed Begley (Sr. & Jr.), and John L. Sullivan have called it home. Montauk Point Lighthouse is the easternmost spot. Rick Pitino, Thomas (3 Fingers Brown) Luchese, Rupert Murdoch, and potatoes have all had a part. Long Island is Belmont Raceway, the Smithtown bull, cranberries, Jones Beach, poet Jupiter Hammon, the acting Baldwin brothers, the Tiny Tuthills, Captain Kangaroo and Dora the Explorer, among others.
