Women's Lives
Author: Jennifer Newby
Publisher: Casemate Publishers
ISBN: 184468654X
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 295
Book Description
“Helps you put those in your female line into context, whether they were factory workers, Land Girls, aristocrats, or even criminals!” —Family History Monthly Women’s lives have traditionally gone unrecorded in history. But housewives, factory girls and servants all had their own distinctive voices, and, if you know where to look, there are plenty of sources to explore. Jennifer Newby’s guide to women’s social history between 1800 and 1939 includes essential starting points for research. A useful handbook for family historians, as well as an engaging read for social history lovers, each chapter focuses on a different group, with suggestions for further reading and a helpful timeline. Compare the lives of factory workers, middle-class women, domestic servants, criminals, aristocrats and agricultural laborers. Hear the voices of obscure women alongside those of celebrities from rebellious servant Hannah Cullwick to daring aristocrat, Lady Colin Campbell, prostitute Ellen Reece, and bored middle-class daughter, Katherine Chorley. If you want to trace female ancestors or simply discover more about how women lived in the past, then this book is ideal to help you get started with your own research. “Jennifer Newby tackles this subject in a readable way, bringing it alive in every aspect: domestic service, on the land, in the factories, middle class women, aristocratic women, and criminal women.” —Ryedale Gazette and Herald “An invaluable research tool and a well compiled collection of historical accounts. It would make a suitable read for not only the student or early career researcher, but also the casual reader interested in learning more about the topic of women’s social history.” —Feminist Studies Association

Trash Can Man
Author: Christopher Alexander Berg
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781771434133
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 228
Book Description
Tried for innocence ... and found guilty. To die, my sentence. "Oh well." "Guess I'll get to leave early ...and miss the apocalypse." Twist of a novelist, gone rogue. All's now opposite of what's expected. Cut's infected. "Burn it." Digressing here. "Back to beheadings." "Back to red weddings." Seed setting..., by force. All getting reality. No balancing this act. This back..., full of daggers. About the Author: Christopher Alexander Berg began writing in his early teens, mainly as a form of self-therapy. Through time, his writing became much more than a psychiatric reflection of one's self, and more of a life support system whenever he felt suicidal. Trading blood for ink, his war began... a personal war that targeted the world and everybody in it. It has been said that Berg "bleeds through his pen," but let's not forget how much he writes from his heart. Sometimes prophetic, sometimes sadistic... Berg indeed proves there's a fine line between genius and insanity... but where Berg is on this line, no one really knows.
