Overall, ""James Gillespie Birney: Slaveholder To Abolitionist"" offers a comprehensive look at the life of a man who played a significant role in the fight against slavery in America.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

A stunning, lyrical novel set in the rolling foothills of the Appalachians about a young girl and the family truths that will haunt her for the rest of her life. "A girl comes of age against the knife." So begins the story of Betty Carpenter. Born in a bathtub in 1954 to a white mother and a Cherokee father, Betty is the sixth of eight siblings. The world they inhabit in the rural town of Breathed, Ohio, is one of poverty and violence--both from outside the family and, devastatingly, from within. But despite the hardships she faces, Betty is resilient. Her curiosity about the natural world, her fierce love for her sisters, and her father's brilliant stories are kindling for the fire of her own imagination, and in the face of all to which she bears witness, Betty discovers an escape: she begins to write. Inspired by generations of her family, Tiffany McDaniel sets out to free the past by delivering this heartbreaking yet magical story--a remarkable novel that establishes her as one of the most important voices in American fiction.

'Betty' ist die Geschichte eines Mädchens, das sich in einer beinahe zweijährigen psychotherapeutischen Behandlung allmählich aus seiner seelischen Isoliertheit zu lösen vermag und so wieder am normalen Leben teilhaben kann. Wie groß seine Einsamkeits- und Verfolgungsängste waren, zeigen nicht nur die wörtlich wiedergegebenen Behandlungsprotokolle, sondern auch die mehr als 1500 Zeichnungen, in denen die Sechsjährige vor Beginn der Behandlung ihrer seelischen Not Ausdruck verlieh. Aus diesen und den während der zweijährigen Therapie gemalten Bildern wurde eine charakteristische Auswahl für dieses Buch getroffen, damit die Leser auch anhand des Bildmaterials den Heilungsprozeß verfolgen können. - Wie sehr sich in der seelischen Problematik des Kindes zugleich die Konflikte der Eltern widerspiegeln, zeigt diese Fallstudie. Sie macht deutlich, wie notwendig diese Konflikte auch en Eltern des Kindes durch häufige und intensive Gespräche bewußt gemacht werden müssen. - Die Geschichte des Mädchens Betty ist kein Einzelfall, sondern steht exemplarisch für die Nöte und Ängste sehr vieler Kinder. Das Buch zeigt eindringlich, wie außerordentlich wichtig es ist, die Ursachen kindlicher Konflikte zu verstehen. Es genügt nicht, Symptome zu kurieren; ihr Ursprung muß erkannt, ihre Wurzeln müssen beseitigt werden.

"Tüdrukust sirgub naine, noatera kõril."Nii algab Betty Carpenteri lugu. Betty sünnib 1954. aastal. Tema isa on tsherokii ja ema valge naine. Betty on peres kaheksast lapsest kuues ja kõige rohkem isa moodi. Väike Indiaanlane, nagu isa teda kutsub. Nad on viletsal järjel ja vägivald ähvardab neid nii väljaspool kodu kui kohutaval kombel ka pereringis. Isa jutustatud lugude toel leiab Betty pelgupaiga loodusest, mis on täis imesid, kuid pikapeale tulevad päevavalgele pere süngeimad saladused. Kõige rängem on see, et tüdruk ei saa neid kellegagi jagada.Raskustest hoolimata on Betty südikas. Ta elav uudishimu looduse ja armastus õdede-vendade vastu ning isa imepärased lood toidavad tema kujutlusvõimet ning kõige koletu kiuste, mida ta kogenud on, leiab ta oma väljapääsu: ta hakkab kirjutama. Ta paneb paberile ka üleelatud õudused ning matab need sügavale maha - hetked, mis lõikasid nii valusalt südamesse, et neist ei saanud rääkidagi. Aga viimaks on aeg.Romaan põhineb Tiffany McDanieli enda ema lool. See on korraga valus ja poeetiline lugu ühe väikese tüdruku sirgumisest nooreks naiseks.
