Book Description
The story of Mello and June came to life through Kim’s reflections of three past relationships she was in. Through her reminiscing, while listening to her favorite R&B singer Anita Baker, she decided her past pain could make a great love story. She began going through her voluminous music collection and thumbed through thousands of titles of her favorite R&B songs, hence, Mello and June were born. Mello’s character is very controlling, arrogant, and at times downright cruel. On the other hand, June is very passive, loving, and extremely naïve. It has always been said that opposites attract, and that certainly is the case for these two very different characters. Their relationship spans for over fifty years of sheer madness between the two of them. Life takes them down totally to different paths, yet June is forced to make a decision that Mello has posed upon her. The love story of Mello and June is a dramatic story that will keep you turning the pages. What makes this novel different than any other, Kim used some of R&B’s classic music, as well as her artistry of writing, to tell their story. As you read the song chapters and you remember the songs that tell the story, it will immediately take the reader to special times in their lives, and smiles will begin to form. When you recall the lyrics to the titles of each chapter, the reader may think he or she will know right away what the chapter is about, but don’t let the song chapter fool you because Kim changed up what the chapters are about to put a spin on the book. This is definitely a novel that is a must-have and will be a great addition to your book collection, and one that you will be talking about for years to come.

William Boyd Dawkins & the Victorian Science of Cave Hunting
Author: Mark White
Publisher: Pen and Sword
ISBN: 1473886147
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 415
Book Description
William Boyd Dawkins was a controversial Victorian geologist, palaeontologist and archaeologist who has divided opinion as either a hero or villain. For some, he was a pioneer of Darwinian science as a member of the Lubbock-Evans network, while for others he was little more than a reckless vandal who destroyed irreplaceable evidence and left precious little for future generations to assess. In this volume, Professor Mark White provides an unbiased archaeological and geological account of Boyd Dawkins’ career and legacy by drawing on almost twenty years of research as well as his archive of published and unpublished work which places him at the centre of Victorian Darwinian science and society. White examines his work in both the field and study to provide a critical yet balanced account of his achievements and standing in relation to the field today as well as among his peers. At the heart of this book is a detailed study of the circumstances surrounding the Victorian excavations at Creswell Crags, where two celebrated finds became a cause celebre.

In Camps
Author: Jana K. Lipman
Publisher: University of California Press
ISBN: 0520343654
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 328
Book Description
After the US war in Vietnam, close to 800,000 Vietnamese left the country by boat, survived, and sought refuge throughout Southeast Asia and the Pacific. This is the story of what happened in the camps. In Camps raises key questions that remain all too relevant today: Who is a refugee? Who determines this status? And how does it change over time? From Guam to Malaysia and the Philippines to Hong Kong, In Camps is the first major work on Vietnamese refugee policy to pay close attention to host territories and to explore Vietnamese activism in the camps and the diaspora. This book explains how Vietnamese were transformed from de facto refugees to individual asylum seekers to repatriates. Ambitiously covering people on the ground—local governments, teachers, and corrections officers—as well as powerful players such as the UN High Commissioner for Refugees and the US government, Jana Lipman shows that the local politics of first asylum sites often drove international refugee policy. Unsettling most accounts of Southeast Asian migration to the US, In Camps instead emphasizes the contingencies inherent in refugee policy and experiences.
