GONE TOO SOON, a Biography of ANNE CRAHAN WILLIAMS. Born on a Pittsford, Vermont farm in 1909, this daughter of a widowed first-generation Irishwoman with no money, managed to get herself through college at a time when only wealthy women were college educated. As the only college educated person in her community, she used her talents for the betterment of all. She was a champion of endless good causes, particularly if it meant lifting the sails of a child in need. She never traveled farther from home than New York City, but her knowledge was as broad as the world. She loved to read, loved research, and looked up every fact she didn't know. She was a woman of faith who carried her heavy cross with courage and without complaint. Published in two volumes, GONE TOO SOON, AND GONE TWO SOON BOOK II, because the many photos within exceeded the amount of pixels that could be uploaded into one volume. The first book chronicles her life from her birth to the birth of her last child in 1943. Inside are eighty-three pages of scrapbook and hand-written journals which she kept during her years at Keene Normal School. The second book, about her life in Amsden, includes a journal from the year she taught at Amsden School and many pages about her 4-H Club, THE HAPPY COOKERS. Also, the last letters she wrote to her daughter, Barbara, as she lay dying of Diabetes at Lenox Hill Hospital in New York City and finally at Rutland Hospita in Vermont. The author remarked, "The Crahan family were very closed-mouthed about personal matters, and offered little information about themselves. When I asked, I often heard, "Now, why would you be wantin' to know that?" That would be the end of the discussion. They strongly believed that children were to be seen and not heard. Indeed, until all the Crahans were dead, and I started doing genealogy, I didn't even know that my Grandmother had a sister in Ireland. Mother was a little more generous with her information, but her need for privacy and my busy teenage years left us with little time to get acquainted at an adult level. I was a sophomore in college, nineteen, when Mother died. She took her stories with her. This book is the culmination of three years of intense research and writing. Fortunately, she left two journals, and I had the good sense to keep the last letters she wrote. Upon the advice of a friend, I have included everything I have. Here before you is the life of Anne Crahan Williams. Anne... a brilliant scholar, a visionary, a teacher, an historian, a community leader, a good friend and neighbor, a 4-H leader, a mother, a faithful wife, a poet, a woman of courage and deep faith who was devoted to her family and lived to serve."

Anne Langton (1804-1893) arrived in Upper Canada in 1837 to join her brother John on his settler farm near Fenelon Falls, Ontario. An accomplished miniaturist, landscape artist, and writer, Langton documented ten years of family and community hardship and growth in her journals, letters, and art, and traced her own physical and psychological transformation from cultivated Englishwoman to hard-working pioneer settler. She became an exceptionally influential member of the community, developing the first school and library in the area, ministering to the sick, undertaking charitable work, and hosting community events, all the while continuing to record her reactions to her new world in her writing and artwork.First published in 1950, A Gentlewoman in Upper Canada is a classic work of early pioneering literature. This new, significantly expanded edition includes many of Langton's original illustrations and reveals Langton's views on writing, art, and women's social and familial roles in nineteenth-century Europe and Canada. In her extensive introduction, Barbara Williams contextualizes Langton's life and work and reflects on them in light of current scholarship in life writing, art history, and early emigrant, cultural, and social history. This is the definitive edition of Anne Langton's important text.

Set in Bethel, Vermont during the 1920s, Under An Eagle's Wing is a humorous and poignant story of a young boy who is left at a Montpelier orphanage, and later taken by a farmer and his wife to their home on Camp Brook and raised with other orphaned boys. Killing Mrs. Rogers' prize rooster with a sling-shot is the first of many adventures and pranks. But, it is a barn fire that breaks out after Arthur is smoking in the hayloft that shows him the true meaning of family. In Under An Eagle's Wing we see what happens when Arthur is teased his first day at a one-room schoolhouse, meet his little sister Mabel, and have an adventure riding a traverse. We are with him as Christmas brings both heartbreak and unexpected kindness. We are in the sugar woods when Arthur drives the horses to collect sap and learns how to make maple syrup. We see him through his first crush, experience a small town Fourth of July celebration and an attempt at riding a bull. And, we weep with him as without a word he endures Mrs. Rogers' cruelty. How close did Mazie come to being baked in the oven with the potatoes? What advice did Dr. Allen give Arthur when he ran away from home? What did Arthur learn from his summer living in the woods with his father when he was sent away? How did Arthur save Mrs. Rogers from the barn fire that broke out after he was smoking in the hayloft? And, who is the Eagle? Under An Eagle's Wing tugs at the heartstrings as it casts a spotlight on a child who is trying to find his way in a world where he is special to no one. Based the life of Edward Williams, stories he told and his audio-taped memoirs, it gives readers an enjoyable and informative look at what life was like when their great-grandparents were young. It is fully researched and historically accurate, right down to the name of the train and the time it stopped in Bethel. WHAT READERS SAY: Very powerful and touching. A charming and delightful narrative There are so many beautiful sentences; and there are places that make you laugh, and then the next sentence breaks your heart. Your writing is spare, to the point and brings Arthur immediately to the front of the story. I can hear, see, smell and almost taste the food in this story. You seem to have beautifully captured farm life in rural Vermont. As a former middle school teacher I thoroughly enjoyed your story. The book is excellent It really captures the reader's attention. I found myself wishing there was more once I finished. I wanted to share with you how moved I was by the story and how much I enjoyed it. You truly are a remarkable writer. Once I started reading it, I didn't want to stop. I actually teared up at the end, (and in another place or two). Arthur and the other characters are very alive and well developed. The details of the time period are magical. AUTHOR NOTES: I am, first and foremost, and educator. I worked thirty years in Vermont schools, five as a classroom teacher and twenty-five as a middle or high school counselor. Like any author, I'd like to hit it big. But, more than that, I'd like to preserve our history and have a hand in educating children about life in the early twentieth century. I have dreams that my book will become a part of a school curriculum and be enjoyed by thousands of children. I dream that libraries will stock my book, and that children will laugh, and cry, and learn, and wonder, (and hide under a blanket with a flashlight reading it), after Mom or Dad hollers light's out FOR EDUCATORS: Under An Eagle's Wing will compliment the study of 20th Century history in an elementary or middle school. The following themes in the National Standards For Social Studies are addressed: Individual Development and Cultural Identity Development, Movement, and Interaction of Cultures. Geography, Humans and the Environment Development and Transformation of Social Structures Civic Ideals and Practices Creation, Expansion, and Interaction of Economic Systems
