Book Description
Excerpt from The Calyx, 1912, Vol. 18 As a student of the law, as an advocate at the bar, and as a teacher of the law. Professor Staples is doubtless best known to the general public. For many years he has been regarded as one of the most learned and able lawyers of Virginia. He has been. From the beginning. An untiring student of the law. He has the legal mind and the legal temperament. As an advocate at the bar, he was reckoned as a master of the Socratic art. I have frequently heard that he had few equals in examining witnesses. As a teacher of the law. He is painstaking, exact, conscientious and thorough. The students rally about him. They are with him in the class-room, on the campus. And in his home. They love him. They trust 'him. They seek his advice on any and on every conceivable subject, all the way from the complex problem of matrimony to the simple matter of suggesting the most available remedy lot a bad cold. I know of no man who com bines in a finer way the charm and grace of the old time and the freedom and direct ness of the new. This combination of qualities in a teacher means, of course. That he is gifted with the genius of getting close to young men. It is a fact that service to young men is, with Professor Staples, an instinct, a passion, a creed.

Excerpt from The Muse, 1912, Vol. 14 St. Mary's! Wherever thy daughters may be, They love thy high praises to sing, And tell of thy beauties of campus and tree Around which sweet memories cling' They may wander afar, out of reach of thy name, Afar, out of sight of thy grove, But the thought of St. Mary's aye kindles a flame Of sweet recollections and love. Beloved St. Mary's! How great is our debt! Thou hast cared for thy daughters full well; They can never thy happy instructions forget, N_or fail of thy virtues to tell. The love that they feel is a heritage pure; An experience wholesome and sweet. Through fast rolling years it will grow and endure; Be a lamp and a guide to their feet. MW the future unite all the good of thy ast ith the best that new knowledge can ring. Ever onward and upward thy course! To the last Be thou steadfast in every good thi Generations to come may thy fair daug ters still Fondly think on thy halls and thy grove And carry thy teachings - o'er woodland and hill Of earnestness, wisdom, and love.

Book Description
When the young Swedish-descended Alexandra Bergson inherits her father's farm in Nebraska, she must transform the land from a wind-swept prairie landscape into a thriving enterprise. She dedicates herself completely to the land—at the cost of great sacrifices. O Pioneers! [1913] is Willa Cather's great masterpiece about American pioneers, where the land is as important a character as the people who cultivate it. WILLA CATHER [1873-1947] was an American author. After studying at the University of Nebraska, she worked as a teacher and journalist. Cather's novels often focus on settlers in the USA with a particular emphasis on female pioneers. In 1923, she was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for the novel One of Ours, and in 1943, she was elected to the American Academy of Arts and Sciences.

Book Description
In the late 19th century, orphaned Jim Burden is sent to the wilderness in Nebraska to live with his grandparents. He arrives at the same time as the Shimerda family, including the eldest daughter Ántonia, who becomes his closest neighbors. Life in the American West is tough, especially for the impoverished Shimerda family, and pioneers must struggle for survival. A friendship blossoms between Jim and Ántonia as they explore nature and have adventures together, a friendship that will last a lifetime. My Ántonia became an immediate success when first published and is today considered Willa Cather's first masterpiece. It is praised for its depiction of the American West and its ability to highlight the aspirations of ordinary, poor people in a time when it was customary to write about the elite.

Book Description
Mine Okubo was one of 110,000 people of Japanese descent--nearly two-thirds of them American citizens -- who were rounded up into "protective custody" shortly after Pearl Harbor. Citizen 13660, her memoir of life in relocation centers in California and Utah, was first published in 1946, then reissued by University of Washington Press in 1983 with a new Preface by the author. With 197 pen-and-ink illustrations, and poignantly written text, the book has been a perennial bestseller, and is used in college and university courses across the country. "[Mine Okubo] took her months of life in the concentration camp and made it the material for this amusing, heart-breaking book. . . . The moral is never expressed, but the wry pictures and the scanty words make the reader laugh -- and if he is an American too -- blush." -- Pearl Buck Read more about Mine Okubo in the 2008 UW Press book, Mine Okubo: Following Her Own Road, edited by Greg Robinson and Elena Tajima Creef. http://www.washington.edu/uwpress/search/books/ROBMIN.html
