Amelia embarks on her most epic adventure yet in this final addition to the Amelia Rules graphic novel series. From surviving her parents' divorce, to withstanding the terror of Joe McCarthy Elementary, to handling devastating crushes (not-so-)gracefully, Amelia Louise McBride has weathered her share of storms. But with her new spot on the cheerleading squad, Aunt Tanner's hordes of adoring fans, and Reggie's successful mission to mold young superheroes into productive--and cool--members of society, Amelia's sailing seems remarkably smooth. Then Tanner disappears, humiliated by an ex-boyfriend's tell-all book, sending Amelia into full panic mode. And when she boards a bus on an epic journey to find Tanner--with frenemy Rhonda in tow, and a little help from a certain boy she never thought she'd see again--it quickly becomes clear that if Amelia has learned anything in her eleven years, it's that life is never through with surprises. In his heartwarmingly hilarious eighth volume of the acclaimed Amelia Rules series, Jimmy Gownley takes us on Amelia's most thrilling adventure yet--and back again.

As a child, Amelia was known for adventurous spirit. She became interested in flying in Toronto where she worked as a Red Cross nurse aide at the end of World War I. She took her first flight in 1920, and was hooked. She saved all her money for flying lessons and received her pilot's license at the age of 25. In 1932, Amelia became famous as the first woman to fly solo across the Atlantic Ocean. She used her celebrity to help other women to fly and set many other aviation records. She remains exceptionally well known today, not only as a trailblazing aviation pioneer, but as an icon for women's rights and an enduring mystery.

Amelia Stone Quinton and the Women's National Indian Association Volume 2

Amelia Stone Quinton and the Women's National Indian Association Volume 2

Valerie Sherer Mathes; Lori Jacobson

UNIVERSITY OF OKLAHOMA PRESS
2026
nidottu
This first full account of Amelia Stone Quinton (1833–1926) and the organization she cofounded, the Women’s National Indian Association (WNIA), offers a nuanced insight into the intersection of gender, race, religion, and politics in our shared history. Author Valerie Sherer Mathes shows how Quinton, like Helen Hunt Jackson, was a true force for reform and progress who was nonetheless constrained by the assimilationist convictions of her time. The WNIA, which Quinton cofounded with Mary Lucinda Bonney in 1879, was organized expressly to press for a “more just, protective, and fostering Indian policy,” but also to promote the assimilation of the Indian through Christianization and “civilization.” Charismatic and indefatigable, Quinton garnered support for the WNIA’s work by creating strong working relationships with leaders of the main reform groups, successive commissioners of Indian affairs, secretaries of the interior, and prominent congressmen. The WNIA’s powerful network of friends formed a hybrid organization: religious in its missionary society origins but also political, using its powers to petition and actively address public opinion. Mathes follows the organization as it evolved from its initial focus on evangelizing Indian women—and promoting Victorian society’s ideals of “true womanhood”—through its return to its missionary roots, establishing over sixty missionary stations, supporting physicians and teachers, and building houses, chapels, schools, and hospitals. With reference to Quinton’s voluminous writings—including her letters, speeches, and newspaper articles—as well as to WNIA literature, Mathes draws a complex picture of an organization that at times ignored traditional Indian practices and denied individual agency, even as it provided dispossessed and impoverished people with health care and adequate housing. And at the center of this picture we find Quinton, a woman and reformer of her time.

This collection of family history information and reminiscences is centred on the early life of the author growing up in small town New Zealand of the 1950s and 60s. Being in a family that grew to have 10 children living in a 3-bedroom suburban home was a distinctive enough experience. Added to this was the tension of people living with stresses that were certainly not aided by the strong flavour of Catholic religious practices and expectations of the time.

In this era of war, disease, and natural disaster, we cannot help but struggle against a sense of impotency. Bystanders to God and the powers around us, we watch with dread as they go about their business. Yet somehow, we continue about our own business, determined to pursue our own paths, our own futures. Authoring Amelia, explores a young woman's determination to wrestle from the powers of nature and authority the right to wield the pen that writes her story. It follows her internal struggles to make peace with a senseless past, battle a formidable present, and confront an ambiguous future. Who is authoring her life when the pen so often slips or is so willfully taken? Amelia seeks to answer this question and many others as she journeys through the pages of Authoring Amelia. In her first act of authorship, she seizes the opportunity to escape her Honduran exile and sets out on a Western adventure. What she discovers is that fresh air and wide open spaces can no more deny a tragic past than the dry earth of the plains can deny the momentum of the Yellowstone River. Though the promise of love and the scent of vindication beckon her forward, newly discovered memories and disturbing revelations draw her back...back to her Minnesotan home to unravel the mystery behind a past family tragedy and the current disappearance of her father. Now she must defy the unyielding hand of fate and demand from it the right to define her own existence. But how can Amelia maintain her grip on such a slippery pen?
