| slice of life russell baker: Growing Up Russell Baker, 1983-01-01 Russell Baker’s Pulitzer Prize-winning autobiography about growing up in America during the Great Depression. “Magical….He has taken such raw, potentially wrenching material and made of it a story so warm, so likable, and so disarmingly funny…a work of original biographical art.”—The New York Times In this heartfelt memoir, groundbreaking Pulitzer-winning New York Times columnist Russell Baker traces his youth from the backwoods mountains of Virginia to a New Jersey commuter town to the Depression-shadowed landscape of Baltimore. His is a story of adversity and courage, the poignancy of love and the awkwardness of sex, of family bonds and family tensions. We meet the people who influenced Baker’s early life: his strong and loving mother, his bold little sister Doris, the awesome matriarch Ida Rebecca and her twelve sons. Here, too, are schoolyard bullies, great teachers, and the everyday heroes and heroines of the Depression who faced disaster with good cheer as they tried to muddle through. A modern day classic filled with perfect turns of phrase and traces of quiet wisdom, Growing Up is a coming of age story that is “the stuff of American legend” (The Washington Post Book World). |

| slice of life russell baker: Strategic Writing Deborah Dean, 2006 |
| slice of life russell baker: Genre Theory Deborah Dean, 2008 Contemporary genre theory is probably not what you learned in college. Its dynamic focus on writing as a social activity in response to a particular situation makes it a powerful tool for teaching practical skills and preparing students to write beyond the classroom. Although genre is often viewed as simply a method for labeling different types of writing, Deborah Dean argues that exploring genre theory can help teachers energize their classroom practices. Genre Theory synthesizes theory and research about genres and provides applications that help teachers artfully address the challenges of teaching high school writing. Knowledge of genre theory helps teachers challenge assumptions that good writing is always the same; make important connections between reading and writing; eliminate the writing product/process dichotomy; outline ways to write appropriately for any situation; supply keys to understanding the unique requirements of testing situations; and offer a sound foundation for multimedia instruction. |
| slice of life russell baker: A Strong West Wind Gail Caldwell, 2007-01-09 In this exquisitely rendered memoir set on the high plains of Texas, Pulitzer Prize winner Gail Caldwell transforms into art what it is like to come of age in a particular time and place. A Strong West Wind begins in the 1950s in the wilds of the Texas Panhandle–a place of both boredom and beauty, its flat horizons broken only by oil derricks, grain elevators, and church steeples. Its story belongs to a girl who grew up surrounded by dust storms and cattle ranches and summer lightning, who took refuge from the vastness of the land and the ever-present wind by retreating into books. What she found there, from renegade women to men who lit out for the territory, turned out to offer a blueprint for her own future. Caldwell would grow up to become a writer, but first she would have to fall in love with a man who was every mother’s nightmare, live through the anguish and fire of the Vietnam years, and defy the father she adored, who had served as a master sergeant in the Second World War. A Strong West Wind is a memoir of culture and history–of fathers and daughters, of two world wars and the passionate rebellions of the sixties. But it is also about the mythology of place and the evolution of a sensibility: about how literature can shape and even anticipate a life. Caldwell possesses the extraordinary ability to illuminate the desires, stories, and lives of ordinary people. Written with humanity, urgency, and beautiful restraint, A Strong West Wind is a magical and unforgettable book, destined to become an American classic. |

| slice of life russell baker: The Poisoned Bowl Alisdare Hickson, 1995 The architecture and organization of today's boarding school is to a great extent the product of over one hundred years of homophobia. One might imagine that the post-Tom Brown evolution of the boarding school was conditioned by the gradual ascendancy of liberal reformers over uncompromising traditionalists. Such a verdict would be highly misleading, for the great reforming headmasters also had an illiberal agenda; the desire to manage the sexuality of adolescent boys and, above all, to prevent any manifestation of homosexuality. Dr Hickson puts forward his thesis at the outset based on evidence drawn from biographies, novels, diaries and school histories, but the greater part of the book is made up of anecdotal accounts and memories obtained by the author from old boys of various backgrounds - including generals, members of parliament, headmasters and leading figures from the clergy, the legal professions and the City.--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
