Chapel of Love The Story of New Orleans Girl Group the Dixie Cups【電子書籍】[ Rosa Hawkins ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>In 1963, sisters Barbara Ann and Rosa Hawkins and their cousin Joan Marie Johnson traveled from the segregated South to New York City under the auspices of their manager, former pop singer Joe Jones. With their wonderful harmonies, they were an immediate success. To this day, the Dixie Cups’ greatest hit, “Chapel of Love,” is considered one of the best songs of the past sixty years.</p> <p>The Dixie Cups seemed to have the world on a string. Their songs were lively and popular, singing on such topics as love, romance, and Mardi Gras, including the classic “Iko Iko.” Behind the stage curtain, however, their real-life story was one of cruel exploitation by their manager, who continued to harass the women long after they finally broke away from his thievery and assault. Of the three young women, no one suffered more than the youngest, Rosa Hawkins, who was barely out of high school when the New Orleans teens were discovered and relocated to New York City. At the peak of their success, Rosa was a na?ve songstress entrapped in a world of abuse and manipulation.</p> <p><em>Chapel of Love: The Story of New Orleans Girl Group the Dixie Cups</em> explores the ups and downs of one of the most successful girl groups of the early 1960s. Telling their story for the first time, in their own words, <em>Chapel of Love</em> reintroduces the Louisiana Music Hall of Famers to a new audience.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

The Murder of Joe White Ojibwe Leadership and Colonialism in Wisconsin【電子書籍】[ Erik M. Redix ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>In 1894 Wisconsin game wardens Horace Martin and Josiah Hicks were dispatched to arrest Joe White, an Ojibwe <em>ogimaa</em> (chief), for hunting deer out of season and off-reservation. Martin and Hicks found White and made an effort to arrest him. When White showed reluctance to go with the wardens, they started beating him; he attempted to flee, and the wardens shot him in the back, fatally wounding him. Both Martin and Hicks were charged with manslaughter in local county court, and they were tried by an all-white jury. A gripping historical study, <em>The Murder of Joe White</em> contextualizes this event within decades of struggle of White’s community at Rice Lake to resist removal to the Lac Courte Oreilles Reservation, created in 1854 at the Treaty of La Pointe. While many studies portray American colonialism as defined by federal policy, <em>The Murder of Joe White</em> seeks a much broader understanding of colonialism, including the complex role of state and local governments as well as corporations. All of these facets of American colonialism shaped the events that led to the death of Joe White and the struggle of the Ojibwe to resist removal to the reservation.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Gloriana: The Revolution of 1900【電子書籍】[ Lady Florence Dixie ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>Let us look at. the speakers, a mother and child, the former as she stands leaning against a stone balustrade, which overlooks a small Italian garden, upon which the sun is shining brightly. Far out 6 beyond is the gleaming sea, and on its sparkling, silvery sheen the woman's eyes are absently fixed as she hearkens to the complaining prattle of the child by her side. She is a beautiful woman is Speranza de Lara, one upon whom Dame Nature has showered her favours freely. As the stranger, looking upon her for the first time, would deem her but a girl in years, and exclaim admiringly at her beauty, it would be difficult to convince him that her age is thirty-five, as in effect it is. Speranza's eyes are blue, with the turquoise shade lighting up their clear depths, and a fringe of silky auburn eyelashes confining them within bounds. Her magnificent hair is of a slightly lighter hue, and as the sun plays on the heavy coil that is twisted gracefully upon her noble head, the golden sparks dance merrily around it, like an aureole of gold. And the child? We must look nearer still at her, for she not only is beautiful, but there is writ upon her face the glowing sign of genius. Like her mother, Gloriana; or, as we shall prefer to call her, Gloria, has blue eyes, but they are the blue of the sapphire, deep in contradistinction to the turquoise shade, which characterises those of Speranza. Auburn eyelashes, too, fringe the child's wonderful eyes, but again these are many shades darker than the mother's, while masses of auburn curls play negligently and unconfined, covering the girl's back like a veil of old-gold. Such is Gloriana de Lara at the age of twelve.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Their paths first crossed in 1900 in what is widely considered the most significant featherweight bout in history. Both men were fighters who died young under distressing circumstances.

Clean Up Your Room: The Eternal Spotless Mind of Jordan Peterson【電子書籍】[ Joe Dixon ]

<p>Jordan Peterson imagines he has a spotless mind. In fact, it’s filthy. This book deconstructs his worldview and shows how dirt-encrusted it is. If you want the Truth of reality, come inside and discover the real Truth. You won’t like it, but Truth is under no obligation to be what you want it to be. Peterson claims that the Truth is “Darwinian”. In fact, it is eternal. It is perfect, immutable and absolute. It has never evolved. It cannot evolve. It is what it is permanently and ineradicably. All Darwinian “truths” are lies. Evolution is not predicated on the promotion of Truth. It is all about survival and reproduction, regarding which lies have proved astoundingly effective, which is why all humans, whether they admit it or not, are consummate liars. The Lie is archetypally Darwinian: ever-mutating and constantly subject to natural selection, producing the survival of the “fittest” lies, the most adaptive and useful lies ? lies for living.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Turtles & Ancient Secrets: Historical Fiction Adventure of Alice Dixon Le Plongeon【電子書籍】[ Ronald Ritter ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>At nineteen, I went to a seance at Uncle Jacob's house where I was told by a world famous clairvoyant that I would meet a man much older than myself, be married within months and travel to an ancient land. 'Poppycock', I thought until the idea began to appeal to me.</p> <p>In 1851, I worked at my father's photography studio in Regent's Park. My parents had introduced me to suitable young men for marriage. I refused each one. I wanted to be a singer at Covent Garden and make my mark in the world.</p> <p>I loved my parents and my eight siblings but I was nothing like them.<br /> The day I bumped into Augustus Le Plongeon, I knew immediately it was him, the one I was to wed. My mother said I was excitable but I wasn't. I have always known things beyond explanation.</p> <p>New York was exciting compared to London but nothing prepared me for the extreme conditions of life in the Yucatan with rebels, murder and ravages of disease which became my daily ritual. I almost died on more than one occasion. Augustus had a theory of the origins of man and the ancient land of Atlantis. Our work was ground breaking as we decoded the messages and ancient images on the stone inside the 'House of Mysterious Writings' in Chichen Itza.</p> <p>Years of hard work would eventually see me known throughout the archaeological world alongside my husband. Augustus was an antiquarian and I was his assistant but I developed beyond his expectation to be respected as his equal.</p> <p>In Victorian times, this was quite a feat and I am proud to be Alice Dixon Le Plongeon.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Queen Moo's Talisman, The Fall of the Maya Empire (Illustrated)【電子書籍】[ Alice Dixon Le Plongeon ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>In justice to the author of “Queen M?o’s Talisman”, it may be recorded that at the time of its writing, there was no intention of allowing the verses to go into print; they were penned only for the one to whom they are dedicated.<br /> The songs introduced have been arranged to the metre of the two or three ancient melodies yet occasionally heard among the natives of Yucatan. The one to the rain gods is a versification (set to the tune even now used in a sun-dance) of an old Maya prayer translated from that language by Dr. Le Plongeon and published in his work “Queen M?o and the Egyptian Sphinx.” The melody to which the Love Song is set is not Maya. In connection with the lines touching upon love and pain it may be remarked that in the Maya language there is but one word to express both.<br /> In this poem are represented as nearly as possible, the religious ideas of the Mayas, their belief in KU, the Supreme Intelligence; in the immortality of the soul, and in successive lives on earth before returning to the great Source whence all emanate; also their rites and ceremonies as gathered from traditions of the natives of Yucatan, the fresco paintings found at Chic?en, and the books of ancient Maya authors.<br /> As the general reader can hardly be expected to be familiar with the peculiar customs and ideas of the natives of Central America, these are sufficiently set forth in the Introduction, a careful perusal of which will greatly contribute to an appreciation of the poem.<br /> Attention is also invited to the separate page containing a list of the Maya names and their meanings.<br /> The second part of this narrative poem must be regarded not as a matter of belief on the part of the author, but solely as having been suggested by the belief of the natives who worked for Dr. Le Plongeon in his explorations among the ruins of Chic?en.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Grace and Disgrace Living with Faith and the Leader of the Dixie Mafia【電子書籍】[ Phil Hudgins ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>Discover the power of faith and the human spirit through Ruby Nell Birt's inspiring memoir, which chronicles how one woman chose to "dance in a flood," work to provide for her children, and become a well-respected part of her community.</p> <p>Marriage will always have its ups-and-downs - but the valley that Ruby Nell Birt had to walk through was something no one should have to experience.</p> <p>Ruby Nell Birt was married to Billy Sunday Birt of Winder, Georgia - a man who authorities say killed at least 50 people between the late 1960s and 1974. Known as the deadliest man in Georgia, Billy Sunday Birt went to prison for the last time in 1974, leaving Ruby Nell and their five children to fend for themselves.</p> <p>Ruby was ready.</p> <p>Dive into the exciting and engaging narrative of how Ruby Nell's Pentecostal faith supported her as she worked five jobs to put food on the table and clothes on the backs of her five children. It's a testament to resilience, faith, and commitment, showing how Ruby Nell carried herself and her children through trying times, and how she became a respected citizen in her community despite her husband's crimes.</p> <p>Unlike most true crime books, <em>Grace and Disgrace</em> focuses less on the anatomy of Birt's crimes and more on Ruby Nell's strength to love and ability to forgive.</p> <p>Perfect for fans of true crime stories, Southern history, and religious memoirs, <em>Grace and Disgrace</em> provides an immersive tale wrought with emotion, history, and thought-provoking moments.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。
