pecos bill story: Cuyahoga Pete Beatty, 2020-10-06 Longlisted for the PEN/Hemingway Award for Debut Novel “Cuyahoga is tragic and comic, hilarious and inventive—a 19th-century legend for 21st-century America” (The Boston Globe). Big Son is a spirit of the times—the times being 1837. Behind his broad shoulders, shiny hair, and church-organ laugh, Big Son practically made Ohio City all by himself. The feats of this proto-superhero have earned him wonder and whiskey, but very little in the way of fortune. And without money, Big cannot become an honest husband to his beloved Cloe (who may or may not want to be his honest wife). In pursuit of a steady wage, our hero hits the (dirt) streets of Ohio City and Cleveland, the twin towns racing to become the first great metropolis of the West. Their rivalry reaches a boil over the building of a bridge across the Cuyahoga River—and Big stumbles right into the kettle. The resulting misadventures involve elderly terrorists, infrastructure collapse, steamboat races, wild pigs, and multiple ruined weddings. Narrating this “very funny, rambunctious debut novel” (Los Angeles Times) tale is Medium Son—known as Meed—apprentice coffin maker, almanac author, orphan, and the younger brother of Big. Meed finds himself swept up in the action, and he is forced to choose between brotherly love and his own ambitions. His uncanny voice—plain but profound, colloquial but poetic—elevates a slapstick frontier tale into a “breezy fable of empire, class, conquest, and ecocide” (The New York Times Book Review). Evoking the Greek classics and the Bible alongside nods to Looney Tunes, Charles Portis, and Flannery O’Connor, Pete Beatty has written “a hilarious and moving exploration of family, home, and fate [and] you won’t read anything else like it this year” (BuzzFeed). |

pecos bill story: The True Story of Christopher Columbus, Called the Great Admiral Elbridge S. Brooks, 2022-09-16 Elbridge S. Brooks's 'The True Story of Christopher Columbus, Called the Great Admiral' is an engaging exploration of one of history's most enigmatic figures. This work, meticulously reproduced by DigiCat Publishing, weaves a detailed narrative that balances the mythical stature of Columbus with historical accuracies, presenting a nuanced portrait of the man behind the legend. Brooks's literary style is didactic yet captivating, rich with period details that transport readers to the late 15th and early 16th centuries. As part of the canon of historical literature, Brooks's book serves as a cornerstone for understanding the complexity of European exploration and its ramifications. Elbridge S. Brooks was a distinguished author and editor known for his historical writings and contributions to children's literature. His penchant for thorough research and a storytelling approach rooted in factual accuracy is evident in this seminal work. Brooks's particular interest in Columbus might be attributed to the zeitgeist of his era, which celebrated the spirit of discovery and its impact on the modern world. This provided Brooks both the inspiration and scholarly environment to delve into the life of Columbus with the intent of separating the man from the myth. 'The True Story of Christopher Columbus, Called the Great Admiral' is highly recommended to readers who seek a comprehensive and honest account of Columbus's life and voyages. It is a vital addition to the library of history enthusiasts, educators, and anyone yearning to understand the past through the lens of a writer who championed the integrity of historical narrative. Through Elbridge S. Brooks's judicious eye, Columbus sails again—not just as a celebrated explorer but as a pivotal figure whose actions continue to shape the historical discourse. |
