Book Description
An unprecedented account of the long-term cultural and political influences that Mexican-Americans will have on the collective character of our nation.In considering the largest immigrant group in American history, Gregory Rodriguez examines the complexities of its heritage and of the racial and cultural synthesis--mestizaje--that has defined the Mexican people since the Spanish conquest in the sixteenth century. He persuasively argues that the rapidly expanding Mexican American integration into the mainstream is changing not only how Americans think about race but also how we envision our nation. Brilliantly reasoned, highly thought provoking, and as historically sound as it is anecdotally rich, Mongrels, Bastards, Orphans, and Vagabonds is a major contribution to the discussion of the cultural and political future of the United States.

Kiss Across Memories
Author: Tracy Cooper-Posey
Publisher: Stories Rule Press
ISBN: 1779433530
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 175
Book Description
Unique insights from the author on the writing of the Kiss Across Time series. A collection of essays on the inception and writing of every single book in the Kiss Across Time series, along with pithy comments on a writer’s life and the peculiarities of the publishing industry, all written in Tracy’s personal and unique style. This unique collection provides insights into the strange world of publishing, and a writer’s work processes that go into the building of stories. Find out why books are written the way they are, and why covers sometimes suck. The differences between short stories and novels, and why both are great to read. Learn why the viewpoint a story is written in makes a technical difference to the writer and an even bigger difference to the reader. Then there are the stories about Tracy’s childhood in Australia and how she was drawn to write fiction from a very early age…and why. More tales about her life in Canada and how everything she has lived through has contributed to the stories readers enjoy. Tracy’s Kiss Across Memories collects together the introductory essays found in each book in the Tenth Anniversary Limited Editions series, which was only available for a very short time and never made available for retail sale. The book also includes bonus material, including a never-before-seen essay on the writing of Kiss Across The Universe. 1.0: Kiss Across Time 2.0: Kiss Across Swords 2.5: Time Kissed Moments* 3.0: Kiss Across Chains 4.0: Kiss Across Deserts 5.0: Kiss Across Kingdoms 6.0: Kiss Across Seas 7.0: Kiss Across Worlds 7.1: Time And Two Stories* 8.0: Kiss Across Tomorrow 8.1: More Time Kissed Moments* 9.0: Kiss Across Blades 10.0: Kiss Across Chaos 11.0: Kiss Across the Universe 11.1: Kiss Across Memories [*Time Kissed Moments are short stories, novellas and collections featuring the characters and situations featured in the Kiss Across Time series.] The series has ongoing storylines and characters. Reading the books in order is recommended. Nonfiction, Memoir __ Praise for the Kiss Across Time Series Cooper-Posey's writing is always brilliant. There's something fascinating and cerebral about a Kiss Across Time story that's more than your usual fantasy-time-travel-story. Creative and Amazing! I really love how original Tracy manages to be in a genre where everything seems to have been written. I loved reading this rich, complex and interesting tapestry of interwoven lives and loves. GOLD! More compulsive reading for the Kiss Across Time series! Cooper-Posey is a master storyteller, but how she manages to create these elaborate interconnected storylines that flesh out character development is incredible. I haven’t read a book in this series that I don’t like. This a series that is not one that you get tired of reading as Tracy keeps everything fresh and new. I thoroughly enjoyed reading this terrifically exciting book! It pulls you into itself from page one and doesn't let you go until you've read the last word.

The Endurance Box Two
Author: Tracy Cooper-Posey
Publisher: Stories Rule Press
ISBN: 1774389444
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 773
Book Description
The second four science fiction romances in a unique series, collected together. XENOGENESIS Rex has never been worthy of Belen’s love. Can he change that? Life aboard the Endurance is disintegrating—unemployment, inflation, crime and destitution, all ignored by the super-rich, including Rex Julyan, the wildly successful and most hedonistic man on the ship. When Rex meets an old Artificial Intelligence called Emma, she tells him there may be a way to save the ship, but does he care enough to try? For the woman he once loved, Belen Tirrell, is now the partner of the ship’s Captain, Antonio Tyler. She left Rex to be with him, long ago. Nothing would win her back now…would it? JUNKYARD HEROES How does someone afraid of their own shadow become a hero and win love? Pint-sized Noa Doria and her “loser” friends help a stranger in trouble—none other than Haydn Forney. Haydn is the son of the most hated man on the Endurance, Fornell Acardi, leader of the psychotic Caver movement. Strife follows Haydn everywhere. EVANGELIYA He must choose between the woman he loves and the child he has always wanted… Liya and Gelin have worked for ten years to find a way to live together, despite few resources and less hope. Then Gelin learns he has been selected to become a parent…and the other parent is not Liya. SKINWALKER’S BANE They can’t stand each other. Devin Bronson has climbed from an abject childhood, determined to reach the pinnacle of the Endurance: the Captain’s chair. Association with the wrong people could destroy her hopes. Adam Wary is a typical skinwalker, living hard and fast, for life can be short. When his friend Lincoln dies and leaves a message for Adam to give to a woman called Devin, Adam tries to deliver, to Devin’s horror. Lincoln’s message threatens Devin’s career and pulls Adam into the dark underbelly of the Endurance in search of the truth.
