In this lovely and moving memoir, the world's most distinguished scholar of Jewish social history recalls a life that in many ways encapsulates the arduous path of the remnant of East European Jewry through the cataclysmic events of this century. After a childhood in the crumbling Hapsburg Empire, Jacob Katz left his native Hungary to attend the famous Yeshiva of Pressburg. He later entered the University of Frankfurt, where in 1934 he received the last doctorate granted to a Jew in Nazi Germany. Heeding ominous undercurrents, Katz immigrated to Palestine-Israel in 1936. There he witnessed the birth of the new state and the growth of the prestigious Hebrew University. With My Own Eyes, guided by the hand and eye of the consummate historian, poignantly recreates the atmosphere of the period in which the author has lived.

Bo Giertz wrote this book drawing upon the exegetical insights that he received from his mentor Anton Fridrichsen before, during and after his trip to Palestine in the early 1930's. The book is a third-person retelling of the gospels that brings into account various Old Testament references and the contemporary interpretations of those passages by the Jews of Jesus' day as well as contemporary events throughout the Roman Empire, but most especially those directly affecting the Jewish people of Israel at the time, so that the gospel stories take on new life and meaning for the reader. It's both a harmonization of the gospels, and a commentary on them, but much richer. The perspectives change depending on the episode. Sometimes the perspective is from that of a disciple, sometimes from that of a person being healed or a bystander observing. The Christmas story is told from the perspective of Shepherds, the crucifixion scene dwells on the perspective of Simon of Cyrene.

With My Own Eyes tells the history of the nineteenth-century Lakotas. Susan Bordeaux Bettelyoun (1857–1945), the daughter of a French-American fur trader and a Brulé Lakota woman, was raised near Fort Laramie and experienced firsthand the often devastating changes forced on the Lakotas. As Bettelyoun grew older, she became increasingly dissatisfied with the way her people’s history was being represented by non-Natives. With My Own Eyes represents her attempt to correct misconceptions about Lakota history. Bettelyoun’s narrative was recorded during the 1930s by another Lakota historian, Josephine Waggoner. This detailed, insightful account of Lakota history was never previously published.

Shirl is a single mother who urges her son's baby-sitter to swat him when he misbehaves. Helena went back to work to get off welfare, then quit to be with her small daughter. Kathy was making good money but got into cocaine and had to give up her two-year-old son during her rehabilitation. Pundits, politicians, and social critics have plenty to say about such women and their behavior. But in this book, for the first time, we hear what these women have to say for themselves. An eye-opening--and heart-rending--account from the front lines of poverty, Through My Own Eyes offers a firsthand look at how single mothers with the slimmest of resources manage from day to day. We witness their struggles to balance work and motherhood and watch as they negotiate a bewildering maze of child-care and social agencies. For three years the authors followed the lives of fourteen women from poor Boston neighborhoods, all of whom had young children and had been receiving welfare intermittently. We learn how these women keep their families on firm footing and try--frequently in vain--to gain ground. We hear how they find child-care and what they expect from it, as well as what the childcare providers have to say about serving low-income families. Holloway and Fuller view these lives in the context of family policy issues touching on the disintegration of inner cities, welfare reform, early childhood and pro-choice poverty programs.

Here I am sitting in my bed, wondering if I should write a book about my life, wondering if I had made the right choices in my life. Sometimes I ask myself: Where would I be or more likely what type of things would I be doing if I had stayed in France? Not because of my choices but when your name is Karima Zarouali, the doors to reality shut in front of you rather than open for opportunities. At this point it's like, should I change my name? Would it be easier for me to book hotels? Could I get a job easily? Well I'm a chef and you would think that getting a job would be easy at any time in France but believe me it wasn't the case so I decided to construct my life around London. Somehow I got stuck between the two countries. France is such a beautiful country with fine food and the air is purified (not in Paris obviously), I call it the breeze and London is the land of opportunity. London is fast and furious; I got caught with their way of living. How would I be living if I had a good childhood? Does it mean I will grow up towards a bad adulthood? What would have happened if I had stayed in France?This book has been my project for quite a while but I wasn't ready and now I feel that the time has come for me to reveal my life to certain persons who would understand better where I am coming from, why I am the way that I am, my temperament, my strengths and weaknesses.Let's begin by where it all began.

Five lively firsthand accounts of real life in the exciting pre-Yankee era of Californias rich history are offered in this bookfour of them world premiere publications, and all of them new and complete translations. This was an era not only of political intrigues and sectional clashes but also of upheaval as new ideas and attitudes came to a conservative Californian society. Piracy, kidnapping, lust, Indian uprisings, and scenes of battle all vie for the readers attention with fascinating passages about everyday life in the missions and presidios, governmental offices, and barracks. Governors are ejected, invaders fought, revolts arise, and plots hatched. While largely centered in Southern California, these accounts also bring us north to the Bay area and south to Baja California and farther. The reader of these memoirs will enjoy an intimate experience of life as it really wasa personal view not to be found in standard textbooks. As before with the authors previous foray into California history, Narciso Botellos Annals 18331847, the original manuscripts are rendered into a spirited English translation, capturing the nuances and vigor of these adventures in a land so familiar yet so exotic.

This is a book about the fictional life of Maxie Blum. It is a view of the world through the eyes of this fictional character. Maxie comes to the conclusion that he has a messianic role that only he can accomplish, to salvage the world from some indeterminate fate he believes is unacceptable. Marching to the beat of some mysterious inner drummer, he seeks a heroic role that will realize his near divinity. This book details how he copes with the messy realities of an actual life, always searching to find a satisfactory resolution to his dreams. There are women, marriages, and children as well as the travails of the working world. He finds his redemption and salvation not in the physical world that may lead only to small successes of some satisfaction but in the arms of a woman from his youth who haunts his dreams. This work is that love story, how we got there, and what we do then, having arrived in paradise without a crucifixion.
