 | Virgin Spring: A Southwest Story of Romance and Adventure - Nick, Buffington 10 Digit ISBN: 059547604X 13 Digit ISBN: 9780595476046 | | Virgin Spring is the story of Nic Nichols, a rebellious teenager from the Midwest who has long had dreams of becoming a rodeo cowboy. A year before he is eligible for military service in World War II, he gets a lucky break: his parents send him to Arizona in a last-ditch effort to encourage him to finish high school. There, his passion is broncos rather than books, and his penchant for trouble continues to plague him as he tangles with rustlers, wrangling, and rodeos. But it is his friendship with an old vaquero and his romance with a young Apache woman that transform Nic into a man. Through the legend of Virgin Spring, he discovers the timelessness of love. This poignant tale evokes both the history and magic of the Southwest. "In G. N. Buffington's engaging and strongly written "Virgin Spring," Nic turns into a cowboy before our eyes ." -Richard Bradford, Author of the Classic, "Red Sky at Morning" "An engaging novel that captures the spirit of a time and place over which World War II casts its long shadow.

 | Virgin Suicides - Jeffrey, Eugenides 10 Digit ISBN: 061328125X 13 Digit ISBN: 9780613281256 | | Juxtaposing the common with the gothic, and the humorous with the tragic, author Jeffrey Eugenides creates a vivid and compelling portrait of youth and lost innocence. He takes readers back to the elm-lined streets of suburbia in the '70s and introduces them to the men whose lives were forever changed as boys by their fierce, awkward obsession with five doomed sisters: brainy Therese, fastidious Mary, ascetic Bonnie, libertine Lux, and pale, saintly Cecilia, whose spectacular demise inaugurates "the year of the suicides". This is the debut novel that caused a sensation and won immediate acclaim from the critics -- a tender, wickedly funny tale of love and terror, sex and suicide, memory and imagination. |

 | Virginia at War, 1863 - William C. , Davis 10 Digit ISBN: 0813125103 13 Digit ISBN: 9780813125107 | | Between the epic battles of 1862 and the grueling and violent military campaigns that would follow, the year 1863 was oddly quiet for the Confederate state of Virginia. Only one major battle was fought on its soil, at Chancellorsville, and the conflict was one of the Army of Northern Virginia's greatest victories. Yet the pressures of the Civil War turned the daily lives of Virginians--young and old, men and women, civilians and soldiers--into battles of their own. Despite minimal combat, 1863 was an eventful year in Virginia history--Stonewall Jackson died within its borders and Abraham Lincoln delivered the Gettysburg Address. In "Virginia"" at War, 1863," editors William C. Davis and James I. Robertson Jr. present these and other key events, as well as a discussion of the year's military land operations to reveal the political, social, and cultural ramifications of the ongoing national conflict. By this time, the war had profoundly transformed nearly every aspect of Virginia life and culture, from education to religion to commerce. Mounting casualties and depleted resources made the citizens of the Commonwealth feel the deprivations of war more deeply than ever. "Virginia at War, 1863" surveys these often overlooked elements of the conflict. Contributors focus on the war's impact on Virginia's children and its newly freed slaves. They shed light on the origins of the Hatfield-McCoy feud, explore the popularity of scrapbooking as a form of personal recordkeeping, and consider the changing role of religion during wartime and the uncertain faith of Virginia's Christians. The book concludes with the 1863 entries of the "Diary of a Southern Refugee" by Richmond's Judith BrockenbroughMcGuire. At the midpoint of the Civil War, the hostility of this great American struggle had become an ingrained part of Virginia life. "Virginia at War, 1863" is the third volume of a five-book series that reexamines the Commonwealth's history as an integral part of the Confederacy. The series looks beyond military campaigns and tactics to consider how the war forever changed the people, culture, and society of Virginia. |

The grandmothers life, similar to that of her parents in the nineteenth century, was lived in a simple frame house lighted by oil lamps and with no indoor plumbing. She walked many miles to the Indian school of six grades. Because of strict segregation in Virginia, the mother went to an Indian college in Oklahoma for her high school education.

It was in the form of a triangle and had an area of about an acre. Its entire site has been generally supposed to be washed away, but the recent researches show that such is not the case. A considerable part of it is left and is now safe behind a protecting sea-wall. As, at the time of our visit, nothing marked this remnant of the historic acre, we undertook to locate it. Fortunately, the Confederate fort stands in such position as to help in running the boundaries by the map. |

 | Virginia Woolf & the Raverats: A Different Sort of Friendship - William, Pryor 10 Digit ISBN: 1904555012 13 Digit ISBN: 9781904555018 | | Jacques Raverat was a French painter who died of MS aged 40 in 1925. In 1911, he had married Gwen Darwin, granddaughter of the evolutionist and also an artist. They knew Virginia Woolf and Bloomsbury well and when they moved to the south of France for his health, their friendship blossomed in a series of long and poignant letters. The crucial bond was that between Jacques and Virginia. Their correspondence ranged far and wide. Informed by the depressions and uncertainties, the speculation and passion of their bohemian lives, these letters display a complex affinity between three artists facing their own mortality, their weaknesses and the price of their creativity. It is a friendship whose later substance and passion was entirely expressed by letter. Virginia Woolf & the Raverats is not only a complete record of their correspondence, but includes much previously unpublished material. None of the Raverat letters, the extracts from Gwen Raverat's other writings, her powerful sketches of her husband on his deathbed, nor Jacques' paintings have been published before. There are facsimile reproductions of crucial letters, diary and journal entries.Attributes of the Special Limited Edition: Designed by Humphrey Stone, using Dante type;Edited by William Pryor, grandson of the Raverats;44 black and white illustrations: drawings, wood engravings, photographs and facsimile letters;Rounded and backed, marker ribbon, head & tail bands with Damascus green Colorplan endpapers;Quarterbound in cloth with Compton Marbling paper sides, title blocked in gold on spine;Cloth top and tail slipcase with Ingres laid paper wrap;Each slipcase contains a separate numbered Gwen Raverat wood engraving, Vence, LaPlace en ete, which she made at the height of this correspondence in 1923, hand-printed by Simon Lawrence of the Fleece Press, from the original boxwood block |

The essays present a portrait of Woolf as a woman writer who was politically engaged, and actively protesting against a worldview which aggressively targeted women for oppression. |
