Book Description
The Story....... Doctor Brad Kelly, while woolgathering, was riding along the river. He had to make an existential decision as he saw a nude woman trying to stay afloat with a rushing wall of mud on her tail from a likely dam blow-out. Reacting quickly he was able to pull the drowning gal to shore. After spending two days getting acquainted, he told the gal he was a physician and came to town to open up a hospital. After a week of an accelerated romance, the two got married and then headed to a medical center for extra training—Brad in surgery, and Addie in nursing. The Duo then went thru some grueling hoops of study, work, and lack of sleep. Addie excelled and quickly advanced from ward RN to OR nurse, and then to a surgeon’s assistant level. Brad was a natural talent and quickly mastered the surgical techniques and became an attending surgeon prematurely. While in training their hospital was getting built and after making friends with other couples in training they all made their way back to 1905 Texas to set up their practices. With years of growing pains, the golden years were upon the group till they ran into WW1 which took one of their surgeons out of practice for the war’s duration. During the war, realizing that a pandemic was looming, the Duo built a new wing to care for influenza victims. The treatment they gave saved but 4% of the sickest patients. Entering the Roaring 20’s, the hospital and its doctors flourished as three doctors went back into training to learn specialties in orthopedics, urology, and vascular surgery. It was also the time for the Kelly kids and their spouses to be in medical and surgical training. It was after the stock market crash of 1929 that the next generation of Kellys would bring the hospital thru the depression and into the future.

The New Western
Author: Scott F. Stoddart
Publisher: McFarland
ISBN: 1476624208
Category : Performing Arts
Languages : en
Pages : 267
Book Description
American moviegoers have long turned to the Hollywood Western for reassurance in times of crisis. During the genre's heyday, the films of John Ford, Howard Hawks and Henry Hathaway reflected a grand patriotism that resonated with audiences at the end of World War II. The tried-and-true Western was questioned by Ford and George Stevens during the Cold War, and in the 1960s directors like Sam Peckinpah and George Roy Hill retooled the genre as a commentary on American ethics during the Vietnam War. Between the mid-1970s and early 1990s, the Western faded from view--until the Gulf War, when Kevin Costner's Dances with Wolves (1990) and Clint Eastwood's Unforgiven (1992) brought it back, with moral complexities. Since 9/11, the Western has seen a resurgence, blending its patriotic narrative with criticism of America's place in the global community. Exploring such films as True Grit (2010) and Brokeback Mountain (2005), along with television series like Deadwood and Firefly, this collection of new essays explores how the Western today captures the dichotomy of our times and remains important to the American psyche.

Publisher: Christopher Hunt Robertson, M.Ed.
ISBN: 138708366X
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 107
Book Description
North Carolinian newspapers referenced Dr. and Mrs. Hunt over 450 times between 1880 and 1924. As Transylvania County’s Health Officer, Dr. Charles Washington Hunt implemented progressive public health reforms and led one of the state's more aggressive campaigns against the horrific 1918 Flu Pandemic. His promotional efforts helped to develop several beautiful mountain resorts, and he successfully advocated for many local civic improvements. His wife, Henrietta Anderson Hunt, was the proprietress of the Hunt Cottages of Brevard, and this narrative provides the most detailed history to date of that popular hotel. Mrs. Hunt also commissioned large construction projects in Hendersonville, NC, and St. Petersburg, FL. The Hunts were dedicated to their region - caring for its residents and welcoming many of its visitors for four decades. (Recipient of a 2018 Book Award from the North Carolina Society of Historians)
