ISBN: 1964197430
Category : Sports & Recreation
Languages : en
Pages : 383
Book Description
In the 19th century, camping out emerged as an avenue for women's engagement with nature and provided access to an assortment of athletic pursuits, including hiking, hunting, fishing, swimming and boating. This volume of the Sports She Wrote series features 64 articles (134,000 words) written by women from 1879 to 1900, accompanied by 50 images, offering firsthand accounts of camping experiences, showcasing life in the great outdoors as a respite from the pressures of the new and expanding urban lifestyles that many women found suffocating. Informative narratives describe exploring national parks, family excursions with children, practical necessities of outdoor life, proper attire and walking tours through nature’s wonders, including Yellowstone, the Grand Canyon, the Rockies and the Ozarks. Sources include Outing Magazine, The Ladies’ Home Journal, Good Housekeeping, Frank Leslie’s Popular Monthly and The San Francisco Examiner. Contributors include Juliet Wilbor Tompkins, Minna Caroline Smith, Kate Masterson, Mary Sargent Hopkins, E. Pauline Johnson's column on outdoor pastimes, and Jessamy Harte on camping in the Adirondacks. An illuminating series of letters and articles published in Forest and Stream magazine in 1879-1880 offers historical insights into the challenges faced by wives of avid outdoorsmen. Eighteen of the articles were published in a short-lived “Women’s Column” that may have been discontinued due to sensitivities expressed by male readers. Through these eloquent narratives, camping transcends mere outdoor activity, becoming a journey of self-discovery and camaraderie among women and families, celebrating those who embraced the wild retreat and established camping out as an enduring popular escape from social restrictions. Sports She Wrote is a 31-volume time-capsule of primary documents written by more than 500 women in the 19th century.

Everything Teddy has ever wanted is right in front of him, if only he can find the courage to reach out and take it. Teddy should really know better than to agree to one of Pierce's "great ideas," but he's never found it easy to say no to his best friend. Which is why he finds himself on the middle of a snow-covered road, heading into the mountains to spend the Christmas holiday in a rental cabin. And, like always, Pierce's great plan backfires. The cabin is a dump, it's freezing outside — and then comes the snowstorm. Pierce isn't sure how he's going to handle an entire weekend trapped with Teddy. Sure, the guy is his best friend, but tell that to Pierce's body. It's getting harder and hard to keep his hands to himself. Teddy doesn't think Pierce is interested in his nerdy best friend. Pierce doesn't think he's good enough for Teddy. But the fire's blazing, the wind is howling, and it's time for some changes.

Kapitoil
Author: Teddy Wayne
Publisher: Harper Collins
ISBN: 0061989924
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 302
Book Description
“A brilliant book. Karim Issar is one of the freshest, funniest heroes I’ve come across in a long time.” — Ben Fountain, bestselling author of Brief Encounters with Che Guevara “An innovative and incisive meditation on the wages of corporate greed, the fundamental darkness of its vision lit by the author’s great comic intelligence and wit.” — Kathryn Davis, author of The Thin Place, Hell: A Novel, and Versailles With a fresh and singular voice, Teddy Wayne marks his literary debut with the story of one 26 year old Middle Eastern man’s attempt to live the American Dream in New York City. Like the award-winning Netherland and The Reluctant Fundamentalist, Kapitoil provides an absorbing look into American culture and New York finance from an outsider’s perspective. "Sometimes you do not truly observe something until you study it in reverse," writes Karim Issar upon arrival to New York City from Qatar in 1999. Fluent in numbers, logic, and business jargon yet often baffled by human connection, the young financial wizard soon creates a computer program named Kapitoil that predicts oil futures and reaps record profits for his company. At first an introspective loner adrift in New York's social scenes, he anchors himself to his legendary boss Derek Schrub and Rebecca, a sensitive, disillusioned colleague who may understand him better than he does himself. Her influence, and his father's disapproval of Karim's Americanization, cause him to question the moral implications of Kapitoil, moving him toward a decision that will determine his future, his firm's, and to whom—and where—his loyalties lie.
