Founded in 1919, the Federated Press (FP) collected, compiled, and distributed news to America's labor and radical newspapers. Victoria M. Grieve focuses on the lives and work of four correspondents and staffers Jessie Lloyd, Julia Ruuttila, Virginia Gardner, and Miriam Kolkin to examine the impact of women at the FP and across the labor movement. These journalists wrote women into labor news by shedding light on essential issues like the need for equal pay and an end to discrimination. Their work increased women's visibility in unions and the workforce while revealing that not only class but gender and race shaped their on-the-job experiences. Grieve also examines labor feminism within the larger stories of links between the Old Left and New Left and the FP's pioneering role in articulating early iterations of intersectional feminism. A compelling portrait of four women and a movement, Labor Journalism, Labor Feminism looks at an essential labor press organization and profiles politically active, leftist women who created relationships, established networks, and worked for social change.

The Forest School movement is becoming ever more popular, with over 12,000 accredited instructors in the UK. This is the only book to bring the Forest School 'learning through nature' approach to a mainstream audience of parents and other carers. Children's lack of exposure to nature and risk, as well as issues such as obesity caused by a sedentary lifestyle, are currently huge areas of concern in media and for parents. Peter Houghton's charming line drawings give the book a magical feel that will make it stand out from the photographic approach taken by other nature-activity books. Synopsis: The ultimate guide to woodland fun with kids! Forest School is founded on a philosophy of nature-based play and learning that encourages children to develop confidence and self-esteem. This book will get your kids outside, making and building in the real world (instead of on a computer screen!). Whether your local woodland is a forest or a strip of trees along the edge of an urban park, these activities provide fantastic opportunities for family time and will encourage your children to fall in love with outdoor play. This is the first book to share Forest School games, crafts and skill-building activities with families and friends, its magical illustrations and simple instructions drawing children easily into a world of wonder. Be a fox tracking its prey, a moth evading a bat, a rabbit fleeing a forest fire! Make a working bow and arrow, spectacular headdresses, beautiful woodland jewellery, magic wands - all with materials gathered from the forest floor. Learn wilderness survival skills: build a shelter, make fire, forage and cook wild food.
Letters from the Front: The Story of the 6888 by Dr. Elizabeth Carter is a powerful work of historical fiction inspired by the true story of the only all-Black, all-female U.S. Army battalion to serve overseas during World War II. When America went to war, these women went to work-sorting through mountains of undelivered mail meant for soldiers who had long since given up hope. Facing racism, sexism, and the daily peril of war, Major Charity Adams and her battalion of six hundred women kept their mission alive under the banner: "No Mail, Low Morale." From the segregated streets of Chicago to the bombed-out warehouses of Birmingham and Rouen, Letters from the Front tells the untold story of courage, unity, and purpose in the face of invisibility. Through the eyes of women who refused to be forgotten, it reminds us that some battles are fought not with bullets-but with faith, dignity, and the power of words.

The Rev. Dr. Sun Myung Moon has said that he commissioned the World Scripture series based upon the firm conviction that religions have a key role to play in building a world of lasting peace in the twenty-first century. Indeed, in compiling an authoratitive selection of his own teachings, Rev. Moon has insisted on the inclusion of the sacred writings of the world. World Scripture and the Teachings of Sun Myung Moon builds on the foundation of World Scripture: A Comparative Anthology of Sacred Texts (1991), a pioneering work that examines the scriptures of the world's religions and illuminates their universal teachings and common ground. For the many people who have come to know and respect rev. Moon for his interreligious work and his efforts for world peace, these pages offer a doorway into his thought. For those who are already well acquainted with his teachings, this book reveals the rich connections between his thought and the universal heritage of the world's religions.
Have you lost the art of reading for pleasure? Are there books you know you should read but haven't because they seem too daunting? In The Well-Educated Mind, Susan Wise Bauer provides a welcome and encouraging antidote to the distractions of our age, electronic and otherwise. In her previous book, The Well-Trained Mind, the author provided a road map of classical education for parents wishing to home-school their children, and that book is now the premier resource for home-schoolers. In this new book, Bauer takes the same elements and techniques and adapts them to the use of adult readers who want both enjoyment and self-improvement from the time they spend reading. The Well-Educated Mind offers brief, entertaining histories of five literary genres-fiction, autobiography, history, drama, and poetry-accompanied by detailed instructions on how to read each type. The annotated lists at the end of each chapter-ranging from Cervantes to A. S. Byatt, Herodotus to Laurel Thatcher Ulrich-preview recommended reading and encourage readers to make vital connections between ancient traditions and contemporary writing. The Well-Educated Mind reassures those readers who worry that they read too slowly or with below-average comprehension. If you can understand a daily newspaper, there's no reason you can't read and enjoy Shakespeare's Sonnets or Jane Eyre. But no one should attempt to read the "Great Books" without a guide and a plan. Susan Wise Bauer will show you how to allocate time to your reading on a regular basis; how to master a difficult argument; how to make personal and literary judgments about what you read; how to appreciate the resonant links among texts within a genre-what does Anna Karenina owe to Madame Bovary?-and also between genres. Followed carefully, the advice in The Well-Educated Mind will restore and expand the pleasure of the written word.
