Book Description
This book focuses on first-generation graduate students in the US and the graduate or post-baccalaureate programs that house and educate these students. The several voices in this book, including first-generation graduate students, address the phenomena of graduate students’ experiences and related university practices, with the practices connected to traditional academic and Western values and to academic and neoliberal institutional logics. First-generation graduate students’ narratives, or testimonies, serve as the foundation of the analysis of students’ pathways to graduate school and their experiences within graduate school. The conditions for first-generation graduate students in their programs require remedies that will facilitate student well-being, peer community attachment, and persistence, and will educate and train students for achievement in graduate school and for employment after graduate school.

Book Description
"The earliest biography of Sojourner Truth, the Black abolitionist and women's rights activist. Blockson calls this work "one of the earliest narratives of an American black slave woman." Indeed, it is one of the most remarkable books of the period and almost certainly the first work dedicated to supporting the credibility of the testimony of a black woman in a period of very weak legal protections, when accusations and prejudice triumphed over evidence. The work, written by British-born newspaper editor Gilbert Vale, consists of a narrative of Isabella Baumfree, before she changed her name to Sojourner Truth. Based on careful interviews he made with her, it was written in response to the sensationalist murder of Elijah Pierson in the religious cult under the patriarchal dominance of a misogynist white male "prophet" called Matthias. Isabella was officially a servant in the homes of two of the cult's members. The work was intended as a full-throated public rebuke of William Stone's 1835 work Matthias and His Impostures; or the Progress of Fanatacism Illustrated in the Extraordinary Case of Robert Matthews. He accuses Stone of "transferring the sins he has taken under his protection to others not guilty of the crimes, but unfortunately poor, uneducated, and coloured. He could expect no defence from a woman, formally a slave incapable of reading or writing." This work supplied Truth with the necessary legal defence: she successfully sued her accusers for slander, becoming the first black person to win such a suit. Ref: Humez, Jean M. "Reading 'The Narrative of Sojourner Truth' as a Collaborative Text." Frontiers: A Journal of Women Studies, vol. 16, no. 1, University of Nebraska Press, 1996, pp. 29-52."--

Book Description
Two sisters conduct a modern-day investigation into a Victorian-era murder of a toddler and discover their grandmother was a key witness. While researching her ancestry on the Internet one gloomy evening, Penny is astonished by what she finds. Urgently, she instructs her sister Sheelagh, "Search ’Slaidburn Suspected Child Murder!’ Now!" So begins a remarkable story within a story spanning more than a century. In 1885 Yorkshire, sisters Grace and Isabella, accused of murdering Grace’s secret illegitimate toddler, were on trial for their lives. A sadly neglected two-year-old boy was dead following a failed attempt to lodge him at a workhouse. A tense and sensational trial followed in Victorian-era Leeds. Sheelagh and Penny began keenly re-investigating these events. They feel personally involved because a prosecution witness at the murder trial, nine-year-old Margaret Isherwood, would later become their grandmother. The book grips us with dramatic events, but also touches us with the abiding loyalty of sisterhood, the desperate power of our need for love, and the crazy things that it can make us do.
