Henry Edward Wilby's Remarkable Journey

When in April 1848 a West Coast newspaper published the first rumours that gold had been discovered in California, the city of San Francisco was a gloomy town with few commercial prospects. Shops were abandoned, food production ceased and there was a serious risk of famine in the region as local inhabitants fled to the mines and thousands of adventurers made their way to the city. In the autumn, vessels from every direction, laden with provisions, clothing and all kinds of saleable goods, converged on San Francisco, the nearest port to the gold fields. Business revived, there was ample employment at high wages, real estate rose in value and the town, which a few months before had been nearly deserted, boomed. Back in Porto, Portugal, William Wilby, Henry Edward's father, a successful merchant and member of the resident British Community, believing that supplying goods and merchandise to the gold miners in San Francisco could be a wise commercial decision, resolved to finance his son in a new venture. Accordingly, Henry Edward formed a partnership with his friends John Searle and Joseph Clark. The three young men purchased a three-masted barque, the Bella Pernambucana, filled it with goods for sale, contracted an experienced Captain and October 1849, sailed from Porto for California under the Portuguese flag. This book reproduces Henry Edward Wilby's personal Diary in which he describes the harrowing voyage that began 14 January 1850 when their ship left Rio de Janeiro, sailing around Cape Horn, arriving in San Francisco 13 June 1850, but it does not stop here. The diary continues until 7 October 1851, some two years after leaving Porto, as Henry Edward describes his life in San Francisco, selling merchandise, fighting several great fires, watching a couple of public hangings and so much more, ending with a visit to the goldfields.
They met at a dancehall in Doncaster - Arthur Garwell, a young Bomber Command pilot, and Joan Shepherd, a vivacious, but sensitive, young woman. He had survived thirty nighttime raids into enemy territory; she had survived a childhood of loss and trauma. It was 1941 and the world was at war. Months later, the Lancaster bomber he was piloting lay broken and burning after the fateful daylight raid on Augsburg, deep in southern Germany. Flight Lieutenant Garwell, now a prisoner of Hitler's Third Reich, had been torn apart from his new love.Escape, recapture, solitary confinement and a desperate march to freedom through the snow and ice of a bitter winter lay ahead before Arthur and Joan were reunited. But, as they set out on their new life together in a Britain ravaged by austerity, another, very different, battle awaited. Letters from Stalag Luft 3 is a true story of bravery and survival, love and loss - both his and hers - told by their son.
This new study provides fresh readings of Thomas Hardy’s work and illuminates the social and cultural history of dress in the nineteenth century. The book argues that Hardy had a more detailed and acute understanding of the importance of dress in forming and regulating personal identity and social relations than any other writer of his time. Structured thematically, it takes into account both nineteenth-century and modern theoretical approaches to the significance of what we wear.The author gives an extended analysis of individual works by Hardy, showing, for example, that A Pair of Blue Eyes is central to the study of the function of clothing in the expression and perception of sexuality. The Hand of Ethelberta, The Mayor of Casterbridge, Tess of the d’Urbervilles and The Woodlanders are examined in order to show the extent to which dress obscures or reveals the nature of the self. Hardy’s other novels, as well as the short stories and poems, are used to confirm the centrality of dress and clothing in Hardy’s work. The book also raises issues such as the gendering of dress, cross-dressing, work clothes and working with clothes, dress and the environment, the symbolism of colour in clothes, and the dress conventions relating to death.

"Writing Poetry Through the Eyes of Science" presents a unique and effective interdisciplinary approach to teaching science poems and science poetry writing in secondary English and science classrooms. A collaboration between two award-winning teachers, one in English, the other in science, this crossover work demonstrates how scientific literacy, knowledge, and methods can inform and inspire poetic response in the classroom and in the field. "Writing Poetry Through the Eyes of Science" illustrates how students can utilize field research, observations, sensory data gathering, poetic writing strategies, and model science poems by poets, scientists, students, and teachers to produce skillful and creative science poetry. The authors explore the commonalities shared by the domains of science and poetry as well as the potentials for intersections and interactions across those two domains. As the science teacher raises scientific questions and suggests technical vocabulary to further language specificity and precision, the poetry teacher demonstrates multiple poetic stances enabling imaginative poetic responses. The active, hands-on, collaborative nature of the classroom atmosphere motivates students to write inspired poems, and students who have never before written poetry can become excited, engaged, and productive. "Writing Poetry Through the Eyes of Science" is built on original field data gathered by Colfax from expeditions to Iceland and other locations around the world as well as the original poetry and poetry teaching techniques of Gorrell. It illustrates basic science poetry writing exercises useful for students of all levels and abilities, and includes student work as well as commentary and feedback on their science poems in each chapter. It then moves to advanced exercises designed to teach the inspired poems of awe, empathy, outrage, protest, meditation, speculation, and perplexity. In the final section of the work, the authors present sample lesson plans specifically designed for the advanced English language and composition curriculum as well as for advanced science courses in research, ecology, and the environment.

This is a silly story about a pair of doves and the problems that arise while they are building their nest and teaching their little ones how to fly. It includes a bit of fantasy along with real-life events that the author observed as they happened right outside her window.
