This gritty, sweeping novel follows a burgeoning political activist in the early twentieth century: a "precious, priceless book" (Alice Walker).
"We owe our world to women like Agnes Smedley, who worked without peace or resolution toward a future they could not see." --Paola Mendoza
First released in 1929, Daughter of Earth remains a seminal work of American socialist literature. This semiautobiographical account of an early twentieth-century activist describes growing up in rural poverty in farming settlements and mining towns; discovering the double standards of race and sex among East Coast intellectuals; facing false espionage charges; and maintaining her independence through two tormented marriages.
Groundbreaking in its portrayal of sexism within the leftist movement, Daughter of Earth was uniquely prescient in its intersectional exploration of oppression, demanding that progressive movements embody political justice with integrity and introspection.

"Read this book and join the effort to terminate air pollution."--Arnold Schwarzenegger, 38th Governor of California
The story of what's happened to the air we breathe, the impact it has had on our health and what we can do to fight back.
Clearing the Air tells the full story of what's happened to the air we breathe. Sustainability journalist Tim Smedley explains exactly what air pollution is, which chemicals are the dangerous ones and where they come from. He interviews the scientists and politicians at the forefront of air pollution research as well as those whose lives have been affected by smog. This groundbreaking book reveals the extreme instances of air pollution that have happened around the world, including London, Beijing, Delhi and LA, as well as examining recent stories like the VW diesel scandal.
Globally, 18,000 people die each day from air pollution. For the most part, air pollution is anonymous; an invisible killer borne from the cars in our driveways and the industrial processes used to make stuff, but there is so much we don't know. Parents on the school run in their 4x4s have never been told that the pollution inside the car is 5 times worse than that on the street outside, or that studies show how air pollution stunts lung growth in children.
Around the world, more than eight-out-of-ten people who live in cities breathe in concentrations of air pollutants that exceed international air quality guidelines. The annual number of deaths--6.5 million--is far greater than those from HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis, malaria and car crashes combined, and it is getting worse. These problems can be solved, and the message of the book is positive. The overwhelming majority of air pollutants are local, short-lived, and can be stopped at source; the benefits to health, instant and dramatic. There are many stories that show how the fightback against air pollution can and does work, and we can all play a part to clear our air.

This is the true story of the life of Joseph Smedley.
He was an actor, initially with the Lincoln theatre and its circuit from just after the turn of the nineteenth century, and covers his decision to form his own company, with his new wife, and to tour theatres in Humberside and the East Midlands.
The Life And Times Of Joseph Smedley looks at what it was like to be a strolling player in the first half of the nineteenth century, how he used his growing family to fill roles in his repertoire of plays, and the problems he faced in making a living as an actor. The book examines the people of the day, including the Robertsons who ran the theatres in Lincoln, Nottingham and Derby and their circuits; the actors, and those who contributed to his work, and his efforts from the beginning both to survive, and to build one of the largest touring circuits in the country; and looks at events of those times which affected him, his family and his company of actors.
The Life And Times Of Joseph Smedley shows how he tried to treat people fairly, and how he tried to achieve a reputation for honesty and good behaviour in members of his company, and how he attempted to elevate his profession from its maligned reputation for drunkenness and debauchery into one of a "school of eloquence, a Temple of the Arts."
