In August 1914, the long-established Germans of Lunenburg County found themselves facing a dilemma: Canada was at war with Germany. They met suspicions of disloyalty with the claim that their roots were deep in the German states of mid-eighteenth-century central Europe, long before unification. They were, then, as British as King George V himself.
As British as the King explores life in Lunenburg County at a time when blackouts were enforced, when there were rumours of spies, and when schooners were sunk offshore by U-boats. Intricately and thoroughly researched, this fascinating historical account brings an exquisite level of detail to the history of the war effort on the home front. Historians and Nova Scotians with Lunenburg roots will appreciate author Gerald Hallowell's passion for his subject--a passion that echoes that of his previous work, The August Gales, for which he received the 2014 Democracy 250 Atlantic Book Award for Historical Writing.
Features a historical map and 30] black and white images.
Reproduction reprint: "A Masonic Address Delivered Before The Worshipful Master and Brethren of the Kennebeck Lodge in the New Meeting House, Hallowell, Massachusetts, June 24, Anno Lucis, 5797."
This is a reproduction of an oration given by Brother Amos Stoddard, a founding member of the Masonic Lodge at Hallowell, Massachusetts, on June 24, 1797 at Hallowell, Massachusetts (today, Maine) on St. John's Day in 1797. His oratory notes were then printed, published and sold by Brother Howard S. Robinson. The subject matter of Amos Stoddard's oratory is about the history and virtues of Freemasonry principles.
This reproduction was laboriously created by an ancestral relative of Amos Stoddard from a copy of the original with the intent of honoring Amos Stoddard's efforts, words and thoughts. Every effort was made in the process of recreating this publication to duplicate the original work and to respect authenticity. Grammar, spelling, punctuation and formatting are as original. This is a reproduction and not a modern copy.
Amos Stoddard was a veteran of the American Revolution. His name was submitted to the U.S. Senate for confirmation as a captain in the 2nd U.S. Corp of Artillerists and Engineers by President John Adams in May 1798. Capt. Amos Stoddard served honorably as a military officer from May 28, 1798 until his death on May 11,1813. He died during the Siege of Fort Meigs (Ohio) during the War of 1812.
The story of the life of Amos Stoddard, as part autobiography and part biography, is told in the book,"The Autobiography Manuscript of Major Amos Stoddard, Edited and with an Introduction by Robert A. Stoddard."

Описание: Rae Malgregor went into the profession of nursing with the best of intentions, but she soon finds that her expectations were vastly different than the reality of her new job. Burnt out and mired in despair, she begs for intervention and soon finds herself caring for a young invalid girl. Before long, her life begins to change in ways she never could have imagined. The White Linen Nurse is a hilariously engaging tale that will charm modern-day readers.
In Ojibwe Stories from the Upper Berens River Jennifer S. H. Brown presents the dozens of stories and memories that A. Irving Hallowell recorded from Adam (Samuel) Bigmouth, son of Ochiipwamoshiish (Northern Barred Owl), at Little Grand Rapids in the summers of 1938 and 1940. The stories range widely across the lives of four generations of Anishinaabeg along the Berens River in Manitoba and northwestern Ontario.
In an open and wide-ranging conversation, Hallowell discovered that Bigmouth was a vivid storyteller as he talked about the eight decades of his own life and the lives of his father, various relatives, and other persons of the past. Bigmouth related stories about his youth, his intermittent work for the Hudson’s Bay Company, the traditional curing of patients, ancestral memories, encounters with sorcerers, and contests with cannibalistic windigos. The stories also tell of vision-fasting experiences, often fraught gender relations, and hunting and love magic—all in a region not frequented by Indian agents and little visited by missionaries and schoolteachers.
With an introduction and rich annotations by Brown, a renowned authority on the Upper Berens Anishinaabeg and Hallowell’s ethnography, Ojibwe Stories from the Upper Berens River is an outstanding primary source for both First Nations history and the oral literature of Canada’s Ojibwe peoples.
