Book Description
Rose Kennedy was born in 1890 and died in 1995. The mother of nine children, she outlived four of them, two slain by assassins. Her eldest, Joseph, perished during World War II, while her second son, John F. Kennedy, ascended to the highest office in America. Her sons, Robert and Edward, also assumed political power, but their lives were marked with what many called the “Kennedy curse.” Never before had there been such a world-famous matriarch, a woman who had given so much and yet had so much taken away. In this intimate and revealing portrait of Rose Kennedy, Cindy Adams and Susan Crimp set the record straight about the real power behind America's political throne for more than 40 years. They identify Rose—"Queen Mother of Camelot"—as the one constant pillar of strength who kept America's most powerful and privileged family together. Iron Rose is the tale of one of the strongest women in America's history—a woman guided by her faith in both her family and her religion—and ensures Rose her rightful place as one of the 20th century's most influential women.

Pages : 266
Book Description
A single woman myself, I invite everyone to celebrate the integral part single women play in the body of Christ. With God at the head of the table, we will seek wisdom and examples from His Word to guide us as we each pull up a chair and join the conversation. Love-for God and for others-is our one single reason to engage in this open dialogue through authentic relationships. Drawing from single women's stories, we will rejoice with those who are "single and lovin' it, mostly." learn how to support each other as single women, and what we can offer others. allow God to redefine the deepest desires of our heart. avoid the encaging traps that divide us. respond to others in ways that lead to contentment. share strategies for how to live out love in a congregational context. It is my prayer that through the conversations facilitated by this book, single and single-again women will feel affirmed, understood, and represented. Thank you for joining in the conversation as we live out love: our one single reason.

The Archaeology of Martin's Hundred
Author: Ivor Noël Hume
Publisher: University of Pennsylvania Press
ISBN: 0924171855
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 624
Book Description
The Archaeology of Martin's Hundred explores the history and artifacts of a 20,000-acre tract of land in Tidewater, Virginia, one of the most extensive English enterprises in the New World. Settled in 1618, all signs of its early occupation soon disappeared, leaving no trace above ground. More than three centuries later, archaeological explorations uncovered tantalizing evidence of the people who had lived, worked, and died there in the seventeenth century. Part I: Interpretive Studies addresses four critical questions, each with complex and sometimes unsatisfactory answers: Who was Martin? What was a hundred? When did it begin and end? Where was it located? We then see how scientific detective work resulted in a reconstruction of what daily life must have been like in the strange and dangerous new land of colonial Virginia. The authors use first-person accounts, documents of all sorts, and the treasure trove of artifacts carefully unearthed from the soil of Martin's Hundred. Part II: Artifact Catalog illustrates and describes the principal artifacts in 110 figures. The objects, divided by category and by site, range from ceramics, which were the most readily and reliably datable, to glass, of which there was little, to metalwork, in all its varied aspects from arms and armor to rail splitters' wedges, and, finally, to tobacco pipes. The Archaeology of Martin's Hundred is a fascinating account of the ways archaeological fieldwork, laboratory examination, and analysis based on lifelong study of documentary and artifact research came together to increase our knowledge of early colonial history. Copublished with the Colonial Williamsburg Foundation.

Iron Metabolism
Author: Franz Gross
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 3642871526
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 645
Book Description
International Symposia sponsored by ClBA Basle have been held once a year since 1959 in various European countries. In con trast to the many scientific meetings organised by the ClBA FOUN DATION either at its headquarters in London or occasionally abroad, the subjects dealt with at these International Symposia have con cerned problems more directly related to ClBA'S own research work in the pharmaceutical field. The various topics covered up to the present reflect the far-reaching interests and the wide spread activities that a pharmaceutical enterprise develops in quite diverse fields of chemical, biological, and medical research, and to which the ba.sic approach is an increasingly important prerequisite for the development of a new and useful therapeutic agent. Iron metabolism came into the sphere of interest in connection with CIBA'S research on antibiotics and related natural products containing iron, substances which act in their metal-free form as strong and specific chelating agents. Of course, these observations, interesting though they are, would not in themselves have justi fied a symposium. It seemed, however, useful to examine the new results from a wider perspective and to attempt to relate them to present-day knowledge of iron metabolism in general its physiology, its pathology, and therapeutic aspects. The success of a scientific symposium depends on the concep tion of the programme and the selection of the participants.

Still the Iron Age
Author: Vaclav Smil
Publisher: Butterworth-Heinemann
ISBN: 0128042354
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 282
Book Description
Although the last two generations have seen an enormous amount of attention paid to advances in electronics, the fact remains that high-income, high-energy societies could thrive without microchips, etc., but, by contrast, could not exist without steel. Because of the importance of this material to comtemporary civilization, a comprehensive resource is needed for metallurgists, non-metallurgists, and anyone with a background in environmental studies, industry, manufacturing, and history, seeking a broader understanding of the history of iron and steel and its current and future impact on society. Given its coverage of the history of iron and steel from its genesis to slow pre-industrial progress, revolutionary advances during the 19th century, magnification of 19th century advances during the past five generations, patterns of modern steel production, the ubiquitous uses of the material, potential substitutions, advances in relative dematerialization, and appraisal of steel's possible futures, Still the Iron Age: Iron and Steel in the Modern World by world-renowned author Vaclav Smil meets that need. - Incorporates an interdisciplinary discussion of the history and evolution of the iron- and steel-making industry and its impact on the development of the modern world - Serves as a valuable contribution because of its unique perspective that compares steel to technological advances in other materials, perceived to be important - Discusses how we can manufacture smarter rather than deny demand - Explores future opportunities and new efforts for sustainable development in the industry
