OZYMANDIA
Author: Ellie Stiller McClure
Publisher: Xlibris Corporation
ISBN: 146281736X
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 204
Book Description
OZYMANDIA is true. It is down to earth American history, the story of three families of three entirely different cultures whose lives intertwine during the mid 1800’s in the heartland of America. Jacob’s crossed the Atlantic by choice, leaving behind a rich culture for a hawker’s promises in the new world. Tin Cup was a Cherokee, a man of wisdom and wealth. His family was uprooted from its ancestral home and sent west to Oklahoma by the United States Government in 1838. George escaped the African-American fate of slavery only to become a Cherokee servant. George was a pragmatist, not just a man of his time, but a man of the future who had a daughter “that jes would not lissen”. OZYMANDIA tells of Jacob, arriving at his homestead with a two man saw in his hand and fi nding trees ten feet thick, poisonous snakes as big around as his thigh and beasts waiting to eat him for dinner. The book tells in detail of the suffering and heartbreak of Tin Cup and his family and people during their long walk west during the winter of 1838-39. One reads of George, a man anyone would like to have as a friend, who not only made life, but made life well worth living. These people, their old time religion, old time philosophers with their now time philosophy, along with a few hair brained individuals made our America of today. While young readers will enjoy OZYMANDIA as an adventure story, older readers may understand it as a parallelism, perhaps sharing the traveler’s observations as portrayed by Shelley in his poem, OZYMANDIAS.

Courage and Compassion
Author: Tony Molho
Publisher: Berghahn Books
ISBN: 1805394851
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 265
Book Description
First published in Greek in 2023. The Greek edition was awarded the OURANIS PRIZE of the Academy of Athens In this extraordinary personal account of childhood and survival during the Holocaust, Professor Tony (Antony) Molho recounts his adventures in 1940s Greece from ages four to six, as his parents risked everything to hide him from the German occupiers. In doing so he pays homage to the many ordinary people who selflessly protected his family, demonstrating that even in the darkest times the self-sacrifice and kindness of modest people can still prevail. Delving into the power of memory, and exploring questions of personal identity, and the weight of the Shoah, Courage and Compassion goes beyond the bounds of conventional memoir, as Tony Molho also reflects on the nature of Jewish identity in the aftermath of the Holocaust and on how his personal awareness of this trauma has helped him to understand the course of his own life.

Remembrances of Our Family’s Extraordinary Journeys
Author: Maria E. Faith
Publisher: WestBow Press
ISBN: 1664218157
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 320
Book Description
This is an autobiographical account of my childhood journeys with my parents, 4 older sisters and 2 older brothers. My parents immigrated to America in the first quarter of the 1900s with their families; they met and were married in Arizona and 3 sisters and 1 brother were born there, and I and 1 brother and 1 sister were born in California. A large part of the book deals with the struggles of looking for work in various regions in these two states, and the resulting uprooting of family to go and temporarily live where work was found. There were many sacrifices made to keep family together. The other part of the book reveals the personal struggles I had because of moving to Maneadero, BC, Mexico in 1958 with my mother and attending the local Village School. Struggles? Yes, but soon overcome by the loving friendships developed with the Villagers, Shopkeepers, Teachers and Students. Fun was had, but there were a few God-sent events that became life-changing experiences for me.
