Castle to Cabins by Olga Boudreau Pdf

This is the story of Olga (Horn) Boudreau, wife, mother, grandmother, and adventurer. In 1950, rebellious and longing to live life on her own terms, Olga left a comfortable lifestyle in Kelowna and struck out for the backwoods of northern British Columbia. After securing her teacher certificate, she landed a teaching job for the tiny two room school in Penny. When she stepped off the train into the sawmill town of Penny, she found herself in a bustling world tucked between the mountains and the river, and accessible only by rail. A world without electricity or phones, and filled with moose, bear, beaver, and fish, and the men who worked at sawmilling and logging. The world of Penny was so captivating and compelling that it held her fascination for more than 60 years. There she found romance, got married, and raised five children in a small house nestled at the base of Red Mountain. Written as a legacy for her family and friends, this book is an intimate account of Olga Boudreau's life, to be enjoyed moment by moment, just as she lived it.

Vernon and Irene Castle's Ragtime Revolution by Eve Golden Pdf

Vernon and Irene Castle popularized ragtime dancing in the years just before World War I and made dancing a respectable pastime in America. The whisper-thin, elegant Castles were trendsetters in many ways: they traveled with a black orchestra, had an openly lesbian manager, and were animal-rights advocates decades before it became a public issue. Irene was also a fashion innovator, bobbing her hair ten years before the flapper look of the 1920s became popular. From their marriage in 1911 until 1916, the Castles were the most famous and influential dance team in the world. Their dancing schools and nightclubs were packed with society figures and white-collar workers alike. After their peak of white-hot fame, Vernon enlisted in the Royal Canadian Flying Corps, served at the front lines, and was killed in a 1918 airplane crash. Irene became a movie star and appeared in more than a dozen films between 1917 and 1922. The Castles were depicted in the Fred Astaire-Ginger Rogers movie Vernon and Irene Castle's Ragtime Revolution (1939), but the film omitted most of the interesting and controversial aspects of their lives. They were more complex than posterity would have it: Vernon was charming but irresponsible, Irene was strong-minded but self-centered, and the couple had filed for divorce before Vernon's death (information that has never before been made public). Vernon and Irene Castle's Ragtime Revolution is the fascinating story of a couple who reinvented dance and its place in twentieth-century culture.

Urban Communities and Memories in East-Central Europe in the Modern Age by Aleksander Łupienko Pdf

This edited volume studies the logic of community formation and the common view of the past to show how various social bonds of communities functioned during the modern national era of East-Central Europe from the late eighteenth century until today and how multifaceted this group-building really was. Through an overview of selected examples of communities in East-Central European urban centres, mainly the territories of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth and its successor empires, the volume shows the potential of re-interpretation or adaptation of the past as a crucial tool for assuring social cohesion and for strengthening the image of group boundaries. It studies not only textual sources but also the cultural construction of local historical writings such as oral tradition and municipal publications, as well as symbolic objects such as epitaphs, plaques, monuments and public edifices. The contributors explore the actual creativity employed by these communities to envision their past and their future in homage to the ideals of centralised nationalism or regionalism and how these strongly ethnically marked historic spaces can be interpreted, celebrated or neglected. This book will be of interest to scholars and students of regional urban history and cultural diversities, memory cultures and community formation.
