A renowned literary coterie in eighteenth-century Philadelphia—Elizabeth Fergusson, Hannah Griffitts, Deborah Logan, Annis Stockton, and Susanna Wright—wrote and exchanged thousands of poems and maintained elaborate handwritten commonplace books of memorabilia. Through their creativity and celebrated hospitality, they initiated a salon culture in their great country houses in the Delaware Valley. In this stunningly original and heavily illustrated book, Susan M. Stabile shows that these female writers sought to memorialize their lives and aesthetic experience—a purpose that stands in marked contrast to the civic concerns of male authors in the republican era. Drawing equally on material culture and literary history, Stabile discusses how the group used their writings to explore and at times replicate the arrangement of their material possessions, including desks, writing paraphernalia, mirrors, miniatures, beds, and coffins. As she reconstructs the poetics of memory that informed the women's lives and structured their manuscripts, Stabile focuses on vernacular architecture, penmanship, souvenir collecting, and mourning. Empirically rich and nuanced in its readings of different kinds of artifacts, this engaging work tells of the erasure of the women's lives from the national memory as the feminine aesthetic of scribal publication was overshadowed by the proliferating print culture of late eighteenth-century America.

When Lesley Winton and her beloved black Labrador Holly's paths crossed it was the beginning of a remarkable journey for them both. Each bore the scars of some difficult years however, slowly but surely they would mend each other becoming inseparable and constant companions for almost five years. They would bring out the best in each other. They rarely left one another's side until Holly's passing in May 2013. Holly, The Mahogany Girl has been written in memory of Holly and as a tribute to her. A victim of neglect in her early years, the book tells the wonderful story of Holly's recovery and highlights and celebrates the incredible resilience of the human and animal bond and the strength and inspiration that comes when such soulmates connect. It also tackles the additional difficulties pet owners can face when the devastation of pet loss is not taken seriously. A wonderful read that will make you laugh and cry and move and inspire you in equal measures.

What seemed like a remote and fruitless yearning for a young lad to raise and fulfil his innate calling became a reality through a set of strange and seemingly fictional circumstances for truth is sometimes stranger than fiction. Purely accidental and only the workings of the three fates have caused him to acquire proper schooling, to become a school teacher and headmaster (ag.) of DeHoop Canadian Mission School, his alma materto enter into teachers college to do research work in the Certificate in Education and the Bachelor Of Education in Mona, Jamaica, and later to complete the Bachelor of Arts, in the University of Torontogreat achievements for one who never crossed the door of a High School in Guyana. For he was not only a school teacher in Guyana and Jamaica but went on to retire honorably from the teaching profession in Scarborough, Ontario, 1993. This book reveals that persevering strength of the human spirit to swim ponds, creeks, rivers and marshes; to saunter through valleys and downs; to brave thickets and thorns; to ascend hills and mountains and to reach the apex of the Wills longing. Such is the true story of Imperishable Memories!

By the death of every person something within the range of his study and knowledge is lost beyond recovery. In publishing this book of memories it is my desire to rescue from oblivion persons and events coming under my observation during a long life, and to make a record of habits, customs and fashions which have prevailed at different periods within my knowledge. The book is not intended to be either in any sense an autobiography, or a mere collection of interesting reminiscences, but a legacy which I wish to leave for the benefit of those coming after me. I cannot permit its publication without a grateful acknowledgment of the service rendered during its preparation by friends too numerous to be mentioned by name in contributing material essential to its approximate completeness and accuracy. — WM. T. DAVIS. FROM THE BOOK.

In a world taught to survive off the basis of a book, a girl makes promises she can’t keep. Most of all, to herself. Leanna Smith thought that she’d have it all by now—her freedom, her old life, and her current relationships. She thought she’d escape Herinfalls by the time she was eligible to leave the treacherous town... Only it turns out that the world wants her to pay for her sins before she makes it to the age of eighteen. Now, with extraordinary powers, Leanna isn’t sure which direction her freedom is, or if it’s even in the cards for her anymore. After fearing fire for all her life, Leanna isn’t sure how much more heat her body could handle before it perishes within the flames. With past relationships coming to haunt her present, Leanna knows one thing for certain: her super capabilities have become a part of her. It has become both a gift and a curse. Her strength and her weakness. Her only choice now? Survive and survive, without losing herself in the process. Survive, until she can promise herself a life of living. A life worth living, with the people she loves. __________________________ Disclaimer: This book includes intense action, violence, slight gore, and scenes containing religious trauma as well as mental health topics such as panic attacks, PTSD, depression, anxiety, etc. Please read with caution.

If I were to say that in looking over my life as a pastor, it seemed to me that I had but one charge, and that was in Schenectady, I might be doing injustice to my fellow-Christians in Boston and Ithaca, who were co-workers with me; and yet I should not be far from the truth in uttering my feelings thus; for, apart from the freshness of first love, there was, between the edifice itself and my boyhood dreams, a providential link of endearment of which I shall tell.-from "In the Home Land Again-Schenectady"Cosy and intimate, these recollections of a life in the service of God make up a warm and heartfelt professional autobiography of a man who dedicated his life to faith and education. William Elliot Griffis served as a pastor and teacher in Schenectady (from 1877-1886), Boston (1886-1893), and Ithaca (1893-1903), where he drew around him a wide circle of dedicated students and devoted friends, and his cheerful stories of them and his work are a joy to read. First published in 1903, this lovely book also includes an inspiring collection of Griffis's sermons and essays on such topics as camaraderie, community, and Christ.Also available from Cosimo Classics: Griffis's The Religions of Japan.American author, educator, and theologian WILLIAM ELLIOT GRIFFIS (1843-1912) was born in Philadelphia. He is also the author of Welsh Fairy Tales, The Firefly's Lovers, The Unmannerly Tiger, Brave Little Holland, and Bonnie Scotland.
