My Love, My Enemy

My Love, My Enemy

My Love, My Enemy is a spy thriller, a love story, and an adventure story woven within the fabric of actual historical events during the American Civil War.Fairfax and Cassandra love one another deeply; however, each takes a different side during the Civil War. Unknown to Fairfax, his wife is recruited to spy for the Union while he serves in the Confederate Army.In studying the Civil War, Author Joe B. Hewitt found that according to letters sent home by soldiers, that both sides believed deeply that their cause was just. My Love, My Enemy expresses those convictions felt by both the North and the South. Both used the same slogan, "Our cause is just, continue we must." My Love, My Enemy is not a sociological treatise, although it expresses the determination of abolitionists to end slavery and Southern plantation owners to keep it. The book expresses the deep resentment Negros had for being forced into slavery and their yearning for freedom. It expresses the mindset of Southern preachers that used the Bible to justify having slaves, and of other preachers that used the Bible to prove the opposite. The reader can get a picture of the extreme bigotry that people learned from childhood, and the uphill battle that non-bigoted people faced regardless of whether black or white.My Love, My Enemy is Joe B. Hewitt's sixth book and third novel. This book is quite different from the first two novels. Murder on the Sky Ride and Mystery of the Vanished Gold are murder mysteries set in 1978 and 2007.

Lost Liberty: Recovering Historical Definitions of America's Most Important Word

Lost Liberty: Recovering Historical Definitions of America's Most Important Word

Joe B. Fulton

Createspace Independent Publishing Platform

What is the defining expression of the American way? In a word, it is liberty. From liberty's famed appearance in the United States Declaration of Independence through its role in emancipation, no other word has so embraced and shaped the country's distinct ethos. So what does it mean that the word inhabits less real estate in American dictionaries and American rhetoric? Lost Liberty: Recovering Historical Definitions of America's Most Important Word charts the substantial usage of the word in America, drawing from primary sources such as dictionaries and books to examine how it emerged, and why it has steadily receded. From the pens of colonists fleeing religious persecution through the framers of the Constitution, no single string of letters garnered as much cultural currency or has spawned as many phrases incorporating it. "Natural liberty," "religious liberty," "civil liberty," and "liberty of the press" were mainstays, but we forged other phrases, too: "celestial liberty," "federal liberty," "wild liberty," and "savage liberty," among many others. To paraphrase founding father Thomas Jefferson, new circumstances call for new words. The singular circumstance that forged this nation elevated the word liberty to such prominence in the country's collective consciousness that entries in American dictionaries exponentially surpassed British counterparts of the same era. So why did its usage decline so dramatically?

Mark Twain under Fire

Mark Twain under Fire

Joe B. Fulton

Camden House Inc

pokkari
Tracks the genesis and evolution of Twain's reputation as a writer, revealing how and why the writer has been "under fire" since the advent of his career. Threatened by a rival editor brandishing a double-barreled shotgun, young Samuel Clemens had his first taste of literary criticism. Clemens began his long writing career penning satirical articles for his brother's newspaper in Hannibal, Missouri. His humor delighted everyone except his targets, and it would not be the last time his writing provoked threats of "dissection, tomahawking, libel, and getting his head shot off." Clemens adopted the name Mark Twain while living in the Nevada Territory, where his caustic comedy led to angry confrontations, a challenge to a duel, and a subsequent flight. Nursing his wounded ego in California, Twain vowed to develop a reputation that would"stand fire" and in the process became the classic American writer. Mark Twain under Fire tracks the genesis and evolution of Twain's reputation as a writer: his reception as a humorist, his "return fire" on genteel critics, and the development of academic criticism. As a history of Twain criticism, the book draws on English and foreign-language scholarship. Fulton discusses the forces and ideas that have influenced criticism, revealinghow and why Mark Twain has been "under fire" from the advent of his career to the present day, when his masterpiece Huckleberry Finn remains one of America's most frequently banned books. Joe B. Fulton is Professor of English at Baylor University in Waco, Texas. He has published four previous books on Mark Twain.

6000 Miles of Fence

6000 Miles of Fence

Cordia Sloan Duke; Joe B. Frantz

University of Texas Press
1961
pokkari
The fabulous XIT Ranch has been celebrated in song, story, and serious history. This book of reminiscences of old XIT cowmen puts on record the everyday life of the individuals who made the ranch run. Their forthright, yet picturesque, discussion of ranching hardships and dangers dissipates Hollywood and TV glamorizing. They relate in honest cowboy language what actually happened inside the XIT's 6,000 miles of fence. Cordia Sloan Duke, wife of an XIT division manager, Robert L. Duke, many years ago realized that only those who had experienced ranch life could depict it with deep understanding. As the young wife of a rising young ranch hand, she kept in her apron pocket a notebook and pencil, recording all manner of interesting details as they caught her attention. This diary was the nucleus for the present book. Conceiving of an account of life on the XIT as presented by XIT cowboys, Mrs. Duke set about drawing from reticent, sometimes reluctant, ranch hands the impressions of the XIT (occasionally written down by their more literate wives or daughters) which they had retained through the years. Cordia Sloan Duke and Joe B. Frantz have organized the reminiscences around key aspects of ranch life, retaining the language of the cow hands.

In 1952, just one year after Coach Adolph Rupp's University of Kentucky Wildcats won their third national championship in four years, an unlikely high school basketball team from rural Graves County, Kentucky, stole the spotlight and the media's attention. Inspired by young coach Jack Story and by the Harlem Globetrotters, the Cuba Cubs grabbed headlines when they rose from relative obscurity to defeat the big-city favorite and win the state championship.A classic underdog tale, The Graves County Boys chronicles how five boys from a tiny high school in southwestern Kentucky captured the hearts of basketball fans nationwide. Marianne Walker weaves together details about the players, their coach, and their relationships in a page-turning account of triumph over adversity. This inspiring David and Goliath story takes the reader on a journey from the team's heartbreaking defeat in the 1951 state championship to their triumphant victory over Louisville Manual the next year.More than just a basketball narrative, the book explores a period in American life when indoor plumbing and electricity were still luxuries in some areas of the country and when hardship was a way of life. With no funded school programs or bus system, the Cubs's success was a testament to the sacrifices of family and neighbors who believed in their team. Featuring new photographs, a foreword by University of Kentucky coach Joe B. Hall, and a new epilogue detailing where the players are now, The Graves County Boys is an unforgettable story of how a community pulled together to make a dream come true.
