Bright Lights, Prairie Dust
Author: Karen Grassle
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 1647423147
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 385
Book Description
Karen Grassle, the beloved actress who played Ma on Little House on the Prairie, grew up at the edge of the Pacific Ocean in a family where love was plentiful but alcohol wreaked havoc. In this candid memoir, Grassle reveals her journey to succeed as an actress even as she struggles to overcome depression, combat her own dependence on alcohol, and find true love. With humor and hard-won wisdom, Grassle takes readers on an inspiring journey through the political turmoil on ’60s campuses, on to studies with some of the most celebrated artists at the famed London Academy of Music and Dramatic Arts, and ultimately behind the curtains of Broadway stages and storied Hollywood sets. In these pages, readers meet actors and directors who have captivated us on screen and stage as they fall in love, betray and befriend, and don costumes only to reveal themselves. We know Karen Grassle best as the proud prairie woman Caroline Ingalls, with her quiet strength and devotion to family, but this memoir introduces readers to the complex, funny, rebellious, and soulful woman who, in addition to being the force behind those many strong women she played, fought passionately—as a writer, producer, and activist—on behalf of equal rights for women. Raw, emotional, and tender, Bright Lights celebrates and honors womanhood, in all its complexity.

Goddesses
Author: Sue Jennings
Publisher: Hay House, Inc
ISBN: 1401930646

Languages : en
Pages : 292
Book Description
Goddesses explores the ancient wisdom of the goddesses to help you reconnect with the old ways in a modern context. The goddesses are presented in their elements, in their heavenly bodies, or as symbols of the journey of life to give support, provoke us to explore new ideas and challenges, and to bring balance to our lives. The folklore, myth, and traditional associations of the goddesses will inspire you on your journey. · Pele, the Hawaiian goddess of the volcano, demonstrates that volatile fire energy is life-giving and creative but needs to have focus. · Water goddesses such as Isis, Sedna, and Yemaya offer us wisdom in times of stress and grief. They help us flow in the right direction and remind us that water supports us. · The sun goddesses lead us through our feelings as well as our intellect to our divine spark—the sun within us. If our lives are stormy, we can take comfort from the story of the sun goddess, Ama-terasu-o-mi-kami, and find peace within ourselves. · Cerridwen, the Celtic goddess of poetry, is a source of wisdom, inspiration, and creativity. The reflections, meditations, rituals, chants, and exercises in this book will help you bring about the changes you wish for in your life. Some of the exercises are for you to undertake alone; others you can share with friends, family, and children. Let the goddesses guide and inspire you!

The Life, History and Travels of Kah-Ge-Ga-Gah-Bowh
Author: George Copway
Publisher: Graphic Arts Books
ISBN: 151328844X
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 100
Book Description
The Life, History and Travels of Kah-ge-ga-gah-Bowh (1847) is a memoir by George Copway. Written while he was living with his wife and daughter in New York City, The Life, History and Travels of Kah-ge-ga-gah-Bowh was an immediate bestseller that helped establish Copway as a leading Native American author of the nineteenth century. Recognized as the first book published by a Canadian First Nations writer, Copway’s memoir is an invaluable resource for understanding the history of contact between settlers and indigenous peoples, some of whom, like Copway’s family, assimilated and served as missionaries, translators, and ambassadors. “I loved the woods, and the chase. I had the nature for it, and gloried in nothing else. The mind for letters was in me, but was asleep, till the dawn of Christianity arose, and awoke the slumbers of the soul into energy and action.” Raised in a moment of immense cultural change for his people, George Copway was educated to serve as a missionary for the Methodist church. Among the Ojibwe of Ontario and Minnesota, the man whose birth name was Kah-ge-ga-gah-Bowh, meaning He Who Stands Forever, spreads the Christian faith he has given his life to. Before this, however, he lived a simple life in touch with the natural world, fearful of spirits and careful to listen to the lessons of his elders. Interspersed throughout the story of his life are observations and passages on his family and the history of their ancestors, making The Life, History and Travels of Kah-ge-ga-gah-Bowh an invaluable record of their traditions and daily existence. Written in a poetic, meditative prose, Copway’s memoir remains essential reading nearly two centuries after it appeared in print. With a beautifully designed cover and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of George Copway’s The Life, History and Travels of Kah-ge-ga-gah-Bowh is a classic work of Native American literature reimagined for modern readers.
