Jamaica
Author: Carl Ballenas
Publisher: Arcadia Publishing
ISBN: 9780738574264
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 132
Book Description
Jamaica, Queens, has long occupied a commanding position in the political, social, and industrial life of Queens County. Indigenous people created a trail, used by various tribes to trade furs and other goods, through the woods that later became Jamaica Avenue, the main street of the village. Jamaica was witness to the evolution of change, receiving a charter from Dutch governor Peter Stuyvesant in 1656, becoming an English colony in 1664, and winning freedom in the American Revolution with the Jamaica Minutemen. The area is richly steeped in history: George Washington slept here; and Walt Whitman, Susan B. Anthony, Rufus King, Jacob Riis, and many more have left their mark on Jamaica. Jamaica is an astounding visual journey documenting the unique history of this remarkable community over more than 350 years.

My Garden (Book)
Author: Jamaica Kincaid
Publisher: Farrar, Straus and Giroux
ISBN: 1466828749
Category : Gardening
Languages : en
Pages : 200
Book Description
One of our finest writers on one of her greatest loves. Jamaica Kincaid's first garden in Vermont was a plot in the middle of her front lawn. There, to the consternation of more experienced friends, she planted only seeds of the flowers she liked best. In My Garden (Book) she gathers all she loves about gardening and plants, and examines it generously, passionately, and with sharp, idiosyncratic discrimination. Kincaid's affections are matched in intensity only by her dislikes. She loves spring and summer but cannot bring herself to love winter, for it hides the garden. She adores the rhododendron Jane Grant, and appreciates ordinary Blue Lake string beans, but abhors the Asiatic lily. The sources of her inspiration -- seed catalogues, the gardener Gertrude Jekyll, gardens like Monet's at Giverny -- are subjected to intense scrutiny. She also examines the idea of the garden on Antigua, where she grew up. My Garden (Book) is an intimate, playful, and penetrating book on gardens, the plants that fill them, and the persons who tend them.

The Jamaica Reader
Author: Diana Paton
Publisher: Duke University Press
ISBN: 1478013095
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 392
Book Description
From Miss Lou to Bob Marley and Usain Bolt to Kamala Harris, Jamaica has had an outsized reach in global mainstream culture. Yet many of its most important historical, cultural, and political events and aspects are largely unknown beyond the island. The Jamaica Reader presents a panoramic history of the country, from its precontact indigenous origins to the present. Combining more than one hundred classic and lesser-known texts that include journalism, lyrics, memoir, and poetry, the Reader showcases myriad voices from over the centuries: the earliest published black writer in the English-speaking world; contemporary dancehall artists; Marcus Garvey; and anonymous migrant workers. It illuminates the complexities of Jamaica's past, addressing topics such as resistance to slavery, the modern tourist industry, the realities of urban life, and the struggle to find a national identity following independence in 1962. Throughout, it sketches how its residents and visitors have experienced and shaped its place in the world. Providing an unparalleled look at Jamaica's history, culture, and politics, this volume is an ideal companion for anyone interested in learning about this magnetic and dynamic nation.

You and I Am
Author: Dr. Hyacinth B. Hue
Publisher: AuthorHouse
ISBN: 1524691526
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 103
Book Description
The Story of You is a true experience of a young infant who is now seven years old. The rest of the story is fiction although many events are true. The doctor in the fiction is our way of giving credit to my Jewish obstetrician who delivered most of my eight children. The animals are based upon darling pets my children have raised and those that my family owned when I was but a child myself. Organization and sites relate to true experiences, the admiration and respect for the wonderful word that these nonprofit organizations accomplish (e.g., YWAM). Indeed, one of these organizations is operated by the writer. These are intertwined to give a spin of hope and respect for the way God has used these programs to bless his people, especially young aspirants. All of us is You. It is not difficult to live a holy life of obedience. It is definitely a choice. Many of us delay to make the choice with accompanying consequences. We are all overcomers through Christ. Walk with You and let her life be an encouragement to you.
