Clara Barton, Professional Angel

Clara Barton, Professional Angel

Elizabeth Brown Pryor

University of Pennsylvania Press
1988
pokkari
Widely known today as the "Angel of the Battlefield," Clara Barton's personal life has always been shrouded in mystery. In Clara Barton, Professional Angel, Elizabeth Brown Pryor presents a biography of Barton that strips away the heroic exterior and reveals a complex and often trying woman. Based on the papers Clara Barton carefully saved over her lifetime, this biography is the first one to draw on these recorded thoughts. Besides her own voluminous correspondence, it reflects the letters and reminiscences of lovers, a grandniece who probed her aunt's venerable facade, and doctors who treated her nervous disorders. She emerges as a vividly human figure. Continually struggling to cope with her insecure family background and a society that offered much less than she had to give, she chose achievement as the vehicle for gaining the love and recognition that frequently eluded her during her long life. Not always altruistic, her accomplishments were nonetheless extraordinary. On the battlefields of the Civil War, in securing American participation in the International Red Cross, in promoting peacetime disaster relief, and in fighting for women's rights, Clara Barton made an unparalleled contribution to American social progress. Yet the true measure of her life must be made from this perspective: she dared to offend a society whose acceptance she treasured, and she put all of her energy into patching up the lives of those around her when her own was rent and frayed.

The work of American Catholic nuns during the war between the StatesIt is both tragic and inspirational that those who pray for peace, when those prayers have gone unanswered, and motivated by their humanity and a willingness to sacrifice themselves, venture onto fields of conflict to administer to those who desperately need them. This book concerns the work of the Catholic Sisterhoods during the American Civil War. Catholic nuns worked among the sick and wounded on both the Union and Confederate sides, in hospitals, on campaign and even on battlefields--where some of them lost their lives while aiding others. Within these pages readers will learn of The Sisters of Mercy who were with the Irish Brigade in the West, of the Sisters of Charity of Nazareth, The Sisters of the Holy Cross and others. Here are the exploits of Sister Anthony at Shiloh and of many other nuns during famous battles of the war such as Antietam and Gettysburg. As the author points out, unlike the veterans who wore blue or grey, these sisters never held reunions after the war had ended to keep alive their memories of these terrible times, and so it was fitting that this book was written to memorialise the sacrifice and heroism of these modest women. Originally published in two volumes this special Leonaur edition has combined them for good value.Leonaur editions are newly typeset and are not facsimiles; each title is available in softcover and hardback with dustjacket; our hardbacks are cloth bound and feature gold foil lettering on their spines and fabric head and tail bands.

The Weeping Angel Prediction

The Weeping Angel Prediction

Michael X Barton

Editorial Nuevo Mundo
2025
pokkari
Michael Barton wrote several volumes under the pen name of Michael X. Barton and he was one of the most essential contactees following the Adamski tradition. Barton, who gained fame for his New Age works, wrote many papers in the metaphysical and inspirational genres starting in 1949. His readable writings provide a wealth of New Age information and guidance for thousands of people from all walks of life seek out in their pursuit of higher Truth and Wisdom. Higher powers significantly and favorably accelerated Michael's personal growth in 1940 after briefly encountering a white-garbed Master from the upper realms of existence. Michael discovered that when he was praying, he could communicate telepathically with more evolved souls who claimed to be inhabiting a higher, more evolved vibratory plane of Venus than can be identified via scientific means.In the mid-1950s, Michael Barton took a pilgrimage to Giant Rock. Inspired by George Van Tassel's apparent ability to channel ETs, Barton embraced the notion that the universe is composed of "mind stuff" that can transmit thought vibrations. On the historic night of May 22nd, 1955-his gaze fixed determinedly on Venus-Barton projected a "vibratory beam of light" and, using what he called "space telepathy". Based on his "closed contact" with aliens, he wrote: Secrets of Higher Contact in (1959). Saucerian Publisher is proud to publish one of the 1960s West Coast saucering classics. Written almost 60 years ago in 1964, this is an "educational and inspirational course of study" dealing with "The Master - the Cosmic Visitor who is responsible for the phenomenon of the Weeping Angel picture and other manifestations of a supernormal nature, all of which are calling Man's attention to his prediction of a sooncoming event of much greater significance. According to the author ''This title was specially written for individuals interested in knowing the details of the change of Destiny". This book is an authentic reproduction of the original text. This is the last title written by the author. The following 7 special chapters are included in this publication of The Weeping Angel: 1. "What is it All About ?" 2. "I Meet Anthony Brooke" 3.

Thermal Treatments of Canned Foods

Thermal Treatments of Canned Foods

Angela Montanari; Caterina Barone; Michele Barone; Anna Santangelo

Springer International Publishing AG
2018
nidottu
This Brief describes the chemical features of canned food products and gives background information on the technology of canning foods. It explains how canned foods are different from other packaged foods, and illustrates and discusses their unique properties, including risks and failures. Canned foods are usually considered to offer a particularly long shelf-life and durability. An understanding of their properties and influences on their durability is therefore of great importance in the industrial production, and this Brief offers a compact introduction to this topic.The authors focus on thermally-preserved foods. They explain that the right choice of thermal treatment method (e.g. pasteurisation, sterilisation) as well as process parameters (e.g. time, temperature) is additionally influenced by criteria such as pH, water content, the presence and concentration of fatty molecules, of calcium, etc. So-called ‘survival curves’ can help in determining themethodology of choice, and the Brief introduces the reader to this concept. The authors also address defects and failures. They introduce selected indicators, which can help identifying failures of the entire food/packaging system, and demonstrate how image and visual analysis can be applied in quality controls. The explanations and industrial production of canned foods are exemplified with the case of canned tomato sauces and beans.
