Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Someone ought to walk to Washington to tell the government to stop this war! - Louise Bruyn Louise Bruyn did just that 1971 - America has been at war in Vietnam for almost six years. The death toll is rising, both for the U.S., and for the 'enemy.' Louise Bruyn had enough! It was time to do something. What could one woman do that would make Congress take notice of her protest She decided to walk-from her home in Newton, Massachusetts to Washington, D.C. to make her point. Massachusetts Senator Ted Kennedy and Representative Robert Drinan met her on the Capitol steps. What a point she made! People all over the country rallied to support her. Finally, someone was saying what so many citizens wanted to, and had no idea how to, say-'Stop this War!' This is her diary, day-by-day, detailing her struggles with fear, her encounters with people along the way, and the many wonderful people who opened their homes, encouraged her, and helped her on her way. From Midwest Book Review: Deftly written, personally candid, often insightful, occasionally inspiring, always engaging, 'She Walked for All of Us, One Woman's 197l Protest Against an Illegal War' is an iconic read and highly recommended for anyone who has ever aspired to protest against a perceived social or governmental injustice. 'She Walked for All of Us' would make an enduringly important addition to community and college library Social Activism and 20th Century American Biography collections.

Zustand: Sehr gut. Zustand: Sehr gut | Sprache: Englisch | Produktart: Bücher | Paris, late 1880s…the era of "lions," of extreme wealth versus extreme poverty, of class differences that don't mix - or do they? And when they do? Murder, mayhem, love lost, fortunes lost… what could go wrong? The modern detective story, today the mainstay of movies, television series, and popular literature, evolved over a period of more than forty years. In the late 1880s, competition among newspapers created a new type of writer, the feuilletoniste, who contributed on a regular basis within the time restraints of a deadline. Their stories, "leaves," were inserted into newspapers to introduce the man in the street to exciting, serialized stories, and to keep readers buying the same newspaper week after week. There were many feuilletonistes, many familiar today to the English and French reading publics, but not known to them primarily as feuilletonistes. Most of those well known, whose contributions were later published as novels, did not concentrate exclusively on the law or those in opposition to the law, and contributed only marginally to the creation of the detective story. However, elements of the modern detective story flowed through the works of three feuilletonistes, changing over a relatively short time, and culminating in the "roman judiciaire." Those writers were Paul Féval, Emile Gaboriau, and Fortuné du Boisgobey. Within are six stories from several French feuilletonistes and writers, Emile Gaboriau, Julien Green, Melchoir Frédéric Soulié, and Hector Fleischmann.

Zustand: Hervorragend. Zustand: Hervorragend | Sprache: Englisch | Produktart: Bücher | At a time in American life when citizens are inundated with highly charged sound bites on social media platforms to choose the best product to purchase, to accept the legitimacy of often diametrically opposed political ideologies without critical analyses, or to evaluate their lives compared with "influencers" who create images of the "good life," this little book is offered as a brief respite for all who seek refuge in personal reflection.The selection of poems on Life, Love, and Democracy, challenges the reader to confront the dangers to Democracy in the Twenty-First Century both inAmerica and throughout the world. Drawing upon the visions of individuals from across the centuries, the poems offer numerous paths by which to joinin solidarity with those who choose love over hate. Beautiful in its imagery and verse, it is a reminder that we still retain the ability to overcome the sense of powerlessness which seems to engulf our modern societies through the timeless functioning of Nature. Most importantly, the book re-enforces an understanding that we are on a never-ending journey toward individual and collective freedom.
