Down the Creek
Author: Janet HamiltonPublisher: AuthorHouse
ISBN: 1504919807
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 540
Book Description
Down the Creek is a memoir. The stories that have been in my mind since childhood. The first pages, written on yellow-lined legal pads, were first penned more than tirty years ago. Through the years I graduated from handwriting to a portable Smith Corona typewriter and finally arrived a few years ago into the modern world of technology and began using the computer. How I ever managed to handwrite or use a typewriter is now beyond my imagination. My story is based on my maternal grandmothers life and that of her nine children. I was always fascinated by the stories I heard through the years. Some of the later ones I personally witnessed. I always felt that one day I must write it all down. This book is fiction based on true stories. Names of people and many of the geographic areas have been changed. Dates and events have been moved at the writers discretion to make the story more readable. However, the skeleton of the story is very accurate. Many small details are simply from the writers imagination, written the way I thought those actual events would have or should have occurred.

Working-Class Women Poets in Victorian Britain
Author: Florence S. BoosPublisher: Broadview Press
ISBN: 1460403029
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 365
Book Description
Though working-class women in the nineteenth century included many accomplished and prolific poets, their work has often been neglected by critics and readers in favour of comparable work by men. Questioning the assumption that few poems by working-class women had survived, Florence Boos set out to discover supposedly lost works in libraries, private collections, and archives. Her years of research resulted in this anthology. Working-Class Women Poets in Victorian Britain features poetry from a variety of women, including an itinerant weaver, a rural midwife, a factory worker protesting industrialization, and a blind Scottish poet who wrote in both the Scots dialect and English. In addition to biographical information and contemporary reviews of the poets’ work, the anthology also includes several photographs of the poets, their environment, and the journals in which their poems appeared.
