'Moral Memoranda from John Howard Yoder: Conversations on Law, Ethics and the Church between a Mennonite Theologian and a Hoosier Lawyer' compiles fifteen years of advice and comment on law and government in the United States from a leading theologian who was as prominent for the wisdom he offered to mainline Christians as he was a resource and teacher within his own Mennonite Church. This volume of letters, notes, and essays combines deep understanding of Professor Yoder's Anabaptist tradition with insightful, sometimes wry, observation on modern American Catholicism, and an occasionally caustic but more often open, inquiring interest in law, lawyers, and legal education.

The Abortionist of Howard Street

The Abortionist of Howard Street

R.E. Fulton

CORNELL UNIVERSITY PRESS

Josephine McCarty had many identities. But in Albany, New York, she was known as "Dr. Emma Burleigh," the abortionist of Howard Street. On January 17, 1872, McCarty boarded a streetcar in Utica, New York, shot her ex-lover in the face, and disembarked, unaware that her bullet had passed through her target's head and into the heart of the innocent man sitting beside him. The unlucky passenger died within minutes. Josephine McCarty was arrested for attempted murder and quickly became the most notorious woman in central New York. The Abortionist of Howard Street was, however, far more than a murderer. In Maryland she was "Johnny McCarty," a blockade runner and spy for Confederate forces. New Yorkers whispered of her as a mistress to corrupt Albany politicians. So who was she? The prosecution in her murder trial claimed she was a calculating and heartless operative both in the bedroom and in her public life. Or was she the victim of ill fortune and the systemic weight of misogyny and male violence? The answer, of course, was not as simple as either narrative. In this absorbing and rich history, R.E. Fulton considers the nuances of Josephine McCarty's life from marriage to divorce, from financial abuse to quarrels with intimate partners and more, trying to decipher the truth behind the stories and myths surrounding McCarty and what ultimately led her to that Utica streetcar with a pistol in her dress pocket. In The Abortionist of Howard Street, Fulton revisites a rich history of women's experience in mid-nineteenth century America, revealing McCarty as a multifaceted, fascinating personification of issues as broad as reproductive health, education, domestic abuse, mental illness, and criminal justice.

Death At The Howard: A Jake Katz Novel

Death At The Howard: A Jake Katz Novel

April 4, 1968. Martin Luther King is dead and so is Brenda Queen, shot on stage at the Howard Theatre, Washington's soul music showcase, as rioters rage through the capital. Was it a tragic accident, a calculated crime, or something else? That's what Jake Katz, a rookie cop on the Metropolitan Police Department, has to figure out in DEATH AT THE HOWARD, a novel about a web of events that will change him, his city, and his country forever. Anchored in the turbulence of 1968 -- the assassinations of Dr. King and Bobby Kennedy, the riots in Washington, the Poor People's March, the war in Vietnam, the police riot at the Democratic Convention in Chicago, and more -- the story weaves its way through the equally turbulent life and death of Brenda Queen. Through it all, Katz learns who he is and who he aspires to be, at an unexpected cost to both him and his family. The echoes of that time still reverberate through the country today, not just for those of us who lived through it, but for all Americans. DEATH AT THE HOWARD vividly shows readers of all ages why.

A History of Howard Johnson's: How a Massachusetts Soda Fountain Became an American Icon

A History of Howard Johnson's: How a Massachusetts Soda Fountain Became an American Icon

Howard Johnson created an orange-roofed empire of ice cream stands and restaurants that stretched from Maine to Florida and all the way to the West Coast. Popularly known as the "Father of the Franchise Industry," Johnson delivered good food and prices that brought appreciative customers back for more. The attractive white Colonial Revival restaurants, with eye-catching porcelain tile roofs, illuminated cupolas and sea blue shutters, were described in "Reader's Digest" in 1949 as the epitome of "eating places that look like New England town meeting houses dressed up for Sunday." Boston historian and author Anthony M. Sammarco recounts how Howard Johnson introduced twenty-eight flavors of ice cream, the "Tendersweet" clam strips, grilled frankforts and a menu of delicious and traditional foods that families eagerly enjoyed when they traveled.

Across the red drifts and mail-clad forms, two figures glared at each other. In that utter desolation only they moved. The frosty sky was over them, the white illimitable plain around them, the dead men at their feet. Slowly through the corpses they came, as ghosts might come to a tryst through the shambles of a dead world. In the brooding silence they stood face to face.Both were tall men, built like tigers. Their shields were gone, their corselets battered and dinted. Blood dried on their mail; their swords were stained red. Their horned helmets showed the marks of fierce strokes. One was beardless and black maned. The locks and beard of the other were red as the blood on the sunlit snow.

Taramis, Queen of Khauran, awakened from a dream-haunted slumber to a silence that seemed more like the stillness of nighted catacombs than the normal quiet of a sleeping place. She lay staring into the darkness, wondering why the candles in their golden candelabra had gone out. A flecking of stars marked a gold-barred casement that lent no illumination to the interior of the chamber. But as Taramis lay there, she became aware of a spot of radiance glowing in the darkness before her. She watched, puzzled. It grew and its intensity deepened as it expanded, a widening disk of lurid light hovering against the dark velvet hangings of the opposite wall. Taramis caught her breath, starting up to a sitting position. A dark object was visible in that circle of light-a human head.
