Book Description
The story of how racial segregation and suburbanization shaped lives, the built environment, and the law in Arlington In Built by the People Themselves, Lindsey Bestebreurtje traces the history of the Black community in Arlington, Virginia, from the first days of emancipation through the civil rights era in the twentieth century. A core insight of her account is how common people developed strategies to survive and thrive despite systems of oppression in the Jim Crow South. Moving beyond the standard story of suburbanization that focuses on elite white community developers, Bestebreurtje analyzes African American–led community development and its effects on Arlington County.

Cleaning out his father's secret work room reunites him with the irrepressible Joe Kirkman and leads him to make new discoveries--in the dusty room he finds an unusual machine made of stovepipe and ceramic, and a handwritten map. These clues lead him to uncover a part of his father's history he never knew. Rich in the story telling traditions of Southern Appalachia, Fred Chappell's magical novel celebrates a way of life that has passed. Look Back All the Green Valley follows Chappell's three previous novels--Farewell, I'm Bound to Leave You, Brighten the Corner Where You Are, and I'm Am One of You Forever--and concludes one of the most rewarding cycles of novels in recent memory.

Book Description
My 3 Heroes is the story of one womans fiery determination to give her three brave, handicapped children the opportunity to live in peace, with dignity and to see them achieve far beyond the limits set for them by the social norms of their day. She shared a quality that her patron saint, Joan of Arc exemplified: a determination to realize her vision. In Evas case, it was to see two of her children reach a high level of education. She was undeterred when the minister of education told her they were unable to be educated, and some in the medical profession suggested she put them away, advising her not to become too attached. Evas story leads the reader through the setbacks and successes of her daughter Mary Ellens struggle to learn Braille, and eventually attain a degree in social work at York University. Pauls determination, like his sister, despite partial blindness and debilitating bone disease, led him to receive a music degree from the same university. At every step, Eva was there for her heroes. Ross, the frailest, required Eva to learn how to administer complex medications through the use of a syringe; thus giving Ross, who died at the age of seventeen, a longer than expected lifespan.
