Pulitzer Prize-winning author Frances Fitzgerald ( The Fire in the Lake) reports that efforts to unify evangelical citizens as a voting bloc advanced with the formation of national organizations, including the Moral Majority and the Christian Coalition.

GetAbstract Summary: Get the key points from this book in 10 minutes.Įvangelicals actively espousing Christianity have altered the United States’ political landscape since they emerged in the 1800s and the 1900s as a sizable segment of the Protestant population. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() The other stuff – changing into an animal, the uncontrollable hunger, the gaining of unsightly hair – well, we were flying on a private plane toward the temporary antidote. At least I’d be with my boyfriend Austin Bridges the Third and his family for the holidays instead of being trapped in an evil Swiss boarding school. I tried to look on the bright side, if there was one. Nothing says a quality education quite like scratched debutantes and screaming heiresses. I’d been trapped at The Steinfelder Academy for Girls for the last few months, and if my werewolf friends hadn’t broken me out that morning, it would have been bad news on the society page. And it was a good thing I was going far away. Darkness had become my friend since I’d been infected.Įven the barest touch of moonlight through the windows of the private plane taking me far away from Switzerland made my exposed skin tingle. I’d never needed those shadows more than I did that winter. It works its way around curtains and through shades, slipping in like a practiced thief to steal away the safety of the shadows.

Ozymandias is a simple homage to human power, to human corruption and to human ruling. ![]() He saw through the cracks of civilisation and human greed he saw what man has become and will always be unless he changes. Percy Shelley saw the world for what it was, and what it will be. Famous for his association with his contemporaries John Keats and Lord Byron, he was also married to novelist Mary Shelley. He was also admired by Karl Marx, Henry Stephens Salt, and Bertrand Russell. ![]() ![]() He became the idol of the next two or three generations of poets, including the major Victorian and Pre-Raphaelite poets Robert Browning, Alfred, Lord Tennyson, Dante Gabriel Rossetti, Algernon Charles Swinburne, as well as William Butler Yeats and poets in other languages such as Jibanananda Das and Subramanya Bharathy. Shelley's unconventional life and uncompromising idealism, combined with his strong skeptical voice, made him a authoritative and much denigrated figure during his life. However, his major works were long visionary poems including Alastor, Adonais, The Revolt of Islam, Prometheus Unbound and the unfinished The Triumph of Life. He is perhaps most famous for such anthology pieces as Ozymandias, Ode to the West Wind, To a Skylark, and The Masque of Anarchy. Percy Bysshe Shelley was one of the major English Romantic poets and is widely considered to be among the finest lyric poets of the English language. ![]() 5/30/2023 0 Comments Billy the Kid by Robert M. Utley![]() Other books about the Kid came and went, but in the 1920s, he made a dramatic reappearance spawned by the disparity between the rich and the poor of the time. What was written became the reality that readers bought into, and the book established the Kid as hero and antihero. ![]() Partly ghostwritten by Connecticut-born Marshall Ashmun Upson, the book was commissioned by Garrett to help clear up and burnish his own image. ![]() Just the lengthy title and subtitle suggest the windy yarns, misconceptions and myths that were to follow. In 1882, a year after he killed the Kid, Sheriff Pat Garrett published his side of the story in The Authentic Life of Billy, the Kid: The Noted Desperado of the Southwest, Whose Deeds of Daring and Blood Made His Name a Terror in New Mexico, Arizona and Northern Mexico. After the young man most people know as Billy the Kid was shot dead-in his stocking feet and not knowing who killed him-dozens of dime novels and unreliable accounts of his life sprang up, quick as garden weeds. ![]() 5/30/2023 0 Comments Treasure island book first edition![]() ![]() Meade’s 1892 book Four on an Island, which also recounts a story of four related children including a tomboy along with a dog living on a private island with a shipwreck.

Overall, this is a near fine copy of a wildly popular children’s title. The internals are pristine and crisp and the text blocks, though slightly toned due to poor paper stock, are mostly free from foxing.

Combining interviews, parodies, dreams, parallel lives, diaries, announcements, lists, catalogues and essays, Ma'am Darling is a kaleidoscopic experiment in biography, and a witty meditation on fame and art, snobbery and deference, bohemia and high society. It is Cinderella in reverse: hope dashed, happiness mislaid, life mishandled. The tale of Princess Margaret is pantomime as tragedy, and tragedy as pantomime. One friend said he had never known an unhappier woman. By the time of her death, she had come to personify disappointment. In her 1950's heyday, she was seen as one of the most glamorous and desirable women in the world. ![]() ![]() To her enemies, she was rude and demanding. "If they knew what I had done in my dreams with your royal ladies" he confided to a friend, "they would take me to the Tower of London and chop off my head!"

She cold-shouldered Princess Diana and humiliated Elizabeth Taylor.
