Her journey is one of epic proportions for many urban fe-males. Blood, death, and treachery rule the day as Mayhem counters the distant image of the one-dimensional 'good girl.' Professor Xavier Long tracks the winding road of Mayhem, who becomes a young aspiring hit woman. She comes from a criminal family described by Professor Long. This tale also includes characters like Pedwell 'Peddy' Jefferson, head of the criminal family that is a far cry from traditional.

It is here that Mayhem Jefferson defines the Negro tradition that awaits answers not yet found. This is a story about the people rarely seen beyond the distorted images in the media.

Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. No Jacket. 208, xx, [1] ; illustrated, 4 in color ; 21 cm. ; John Horace McFarland (1859-1948) was an American master printer and horticulturist. Throughout his career, he advocated for civic beautification, and he became a leader in the conservation movement of the early twentieth century. His wide-ranging achievements made a lasting impact on printing processes, horticulture, and environmental protection. During McFarland's early years, his father operated a nursery and a small weekly newspaper in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. McFarland worked in both of his father's businesses as a youth. These early experiences instilled the passion for horticultural beauty and the business expertise that distinguished him personally and professionally. He eventually purchased his father's press. Combining the skills learned from these early experiences, he established a successful printing company of his own. He founded the J. Horace McFarland Company/Mount Pleasant Press, specializing in seed catalogs and nursery trade publications. Over the course of his lifetime, McFarland wrote and lectured extensively on horticulture, printing methods, and civic improvement. McFarland was a prominent member of the American Rose Society.
