'Nursing at the Horton' - 1956 to 1962; when hospitals were run by nurses. Matron was all powerful, demanding considerable respect from all. We were taught patients came first, second and last, everything else had to fit in between. The relationship between them, and the local people was; 'They are our patients, and we were their nurses'. During this time student nurses were responsible for cleanliness in the hospital. We knew that if a patient developed a hospital born infection - heads would roll! Our heads remained safe. Antibiotics had just become available, in limited supply. The nurses worked long hard hours - 60 to 72 hours a week; but played hard too. Some parts are very sad, others happy or funny. If you have ever been a patient or nurse in a hospital, especially the Horton, you will recognise the love that was generated. The book is a sequel to 'Aynhoe Village Life. The Way it Was', but can be read as a stand alone. Look for 'Nursing and Living in America. The Way it Was'.

The long-awaited biography of one of Canada’s most intriguing and beguiling artists. Do artists really thrive in big cities, or do they just learn to imitate New York? Is it a contradiction for an artist to be fiercely local and profoundly identified with international art movements? If the brilliant colourist and regionalist pioneer Greg Curnoe stood for any one thing, it was making trouble. An intriguing rebel throughout his life, he challenged ideas about what art should be, and pushed it in radical new directions — including away from Toronto, a city he rejected while succeeding masterfully in its galleries. His untimely death in 1992 cut short a career of constant reinvention. This first biography of Curnoe recaptures in vivid detail the public and personal life of an iconoclast who was called a “walking autobiography,” as his work seemed to document his endless struggle against many of the core tenets of the art of his time. An anti-establishment firebrand and a fierce opponent of American dominance in Canadian culture, Curnoe, in his conceptual practice, constructed a stunning body of work that remains a hallmark in late-twentieth-century Canadian art.

I wasn't planning to write a book. I would just write a short story for my sister, Hazel. We were at the annual Bowman Christmas Dinner where I often told Christmas stories. Hazel asked me to write my favorite Christmas story for her. I wrote for her my favorite, "Radio Flyer." "Radio Flyer" was a big hit with family and friends and I was encouraged to write more stories about growing up on a rural farm in Virginia in the forties. The memories of this way of life would be lost if they were not recorded. I continued to write stories that I remembered as "The Way It Was in the Forties." I now have enough stories to produce a book, thanks to my family and friends. My goal was to capture the mind of the reader and take him back to those days. I wanted the reader to feel the summer heat, the winter cold and the cool visits to the spring. The reader would feel the aching muscles, the tired body after a long hard day on the farm. When we visited the "Molasses Makers" the clanky noise of the metal gears on the press echoed in my ears as I watched the dark sorghum juice flow from the press to the cooking pan. I saw large bowls of food on the side porch, so I stayed on the porch and ate with the blacks. My Father said grace for the table inside and one of the black men prayed at my table. He talked to God as if He were present with us. He gave thanks for His Son, Jesus; for blessings and food. The other men began to chant "Amen, brother', now yore talking" and an echo of "Amen's." The air permeated with the stench of their sweaty bodies mixed with the great smell of all that food. It was impossible to describe how hard my Mother and Father worked to survive and rear eleven children. That way of life has disappeared from the American scene. You would have enjoyed growing up with the nine Bowman boys and two girls. Clyde just couldn't stay out of trouble. By the time he was out of one mess, he was off to more mischief. Raising tobacco was extremely hard work and my family raised lots of it. Every product raised was labor intensive and carrying water from the spring was no small matter, either.

This book is meant to challenge, is often controversial, even something of a whistleblower and, being radical, does not settle for the status quo as I speak out against these terrible times we live in. It is about dealing with life and death with all that that means in joy and heartache and the realities of such with both the physical and spiritual supernatural sides of life, something of how they interact in good versus evil, right and wrong also the intense and desperate warfare we are locked into here on Planet Earth and the Divine judgement we are under. Where each of us stands regarding these matters is of paramount importance as it affects life now and life's other side. From 1961 after experiencing some 'hell on earth' in my earlier years I was determined to search, seek, sift, ask questions and find the meaning of life and by 1968 I found LIFE in my Maker, Father God, through His Messiah Son and got the big picture and I became radical in my living for Him within the framework of His wonderful, powerful love that He gives to us. It is all about the Truth and the Truth alone will set us free. The book consists of three parts: my autobiography; tying it in with the condition of the world, the church and so on; and further information of varied interest including my late father's survival from the troopship, Lancastria, in the world's worst single maritime disaster in June 1940.

The church began as a discipleship movement known as "The Way." Despite the best of intentions, church as we know it in the West is unknowingly blocking discipleship multiplication-which we must have to accomplish the Great Commission. It's time for the church in the West to be in The Way, without being in the way. Written with pastors and church leaders in mind, In the Way: Evaluates our current discipleship methods and introduces the disciple-multiplying movement (DMM) approach that multiplies disciples organically. Examines 25 separate elements of church operations to explain how the Western church blocks discipleship multiplication. Lays out three strategies for implementing a DMM approach, based on real DMM-practicing churches-not theoretical concepts. In the Way is also timely. COVID-19 scattered and shut in congregations virtually overnight. It exposed a number of disciple-making deficiencies, legacy forms and practices inherited from Europe centuries ago. Pastors and church leaders have been scrambling in response, looking for ways to equip their congregations apart from buildings and centralized programming. In the Way gives them a path forward, providing options for both existing churches and new church starts. It's time for church as we know it (CAWKI) to join in the disciple-multiplying movement (DMM) approaches that have produced millions of new believers over the last several decades-even in countries intensely resistant to Christianity. God is doing a new thing in our time (again), and In the Way will show you how the legacy church in the West can be in The Way, without being in the way.

The fall of 1964 was an exciting time at the University of Iowa. Its fourteenth president, Howard Bowen, had just arrived, and on a sunny October afternoon he made his first speech to the faculty. This occasion was note worthy enough—former president Virgil Hancher had held the job for twenty-four years—to attract the attention of a professor of speech pathology who had previously confined his considerable energies to teaching and research. Bowen's vision of what the university could become was so intriguing, so compelling, that this professor wrote and offered to help him achieve his objectives in any way possible. This quixotic offer changed Duane Spriestersbach's life and becomes the starting point for his story of his years as a University of Iowa administrator. Drawing upon his personal files, the university archives, and interviews with many faculty members and administrators, Spriestersbach has created both an institutional and a personal history of the university. Judged by any standard, these years were tumultuous ones for higher education. Economic pressures from the state legislature, issues surrounding grants from such agencies as the National Institutes of Health and the National Science Foundation, the civil rights movement, student and faculty protests during the Vietnam era, massive changes in the physical and administrative shape of the campus, and the computerization of all parts of campus life had far-reaching consequences. Spriestersbach was at the center of these events at the University of Iowa; his perspective is unique, refreshing, and educational. Spriestersbach's account of the Vietnam years and of the evolution of computers at Iowa will be particularly interesting to readers. He reported to four presidents, served as acting president, managed hundreds of meetings both dramatic and mundane, and reacted to many administrative restructurings. In this story of his life at the University of Iowa, he reveals the truth behind these words from his 1964 letter to President Bowen: “I think I am an idealist, a person with imagination, and a guy in a hurry. I believe investigation will show that I am a person with competitive administrative and executive abilities.”

That's the Way It "Wuz" Back Then is an overview about a particular period and a particular people in history with limited recorded information about their experiences. The information, gathered from interviews with others and my own experiences, provides a brief depiction of the hardship and suffering of black families during the early twentieth century, segregated schools in the south, and the unrest experienced in the south during the desegregation of schools. The main purpose for writing this book is record bits and pieces of history concerning African Americans in Lonoke County, Arkansas, to be placed in the Lonoke County Library. In keeping with that purpose, That's the Way It "Wuz" Back Then has chapters that relate to the lives of people who persevered and overcame the difficulties placed upon them and became productive citizens in their communities. The book contains abstracts or clippings of the The Lonoke Democrat newspaper articles relate the physical, cultural, and spiritual existence of African Americans in Lonoke County, Arkansas, during the late nineteenth and mid-twentieth centuries. The Lonoke Democrat newspaper articles demonstrate the experiences of people and their rich cultural identity and family. I wanted to sustain the language or speech of that period in time; therefore, limited editing of this section of the book was done. It is the cultural identity of our ancestors that we all long to reminisce in family gatherings.

Reading Hunting, the Way it Was is like lingering around a campfire 50 miles deep in the Snag River country, or at Wolf Lake, and hearing the fascinating and entertaining stories told by Bud and LeNora about hunting in Alaska's bygone era. It is the true tales about one of Alaska's best fair-chase guides, of horse-wranglers and assistant guides, and of pilots who flew clients in their fragile Super Cubs to the frozen arctic for polar bear and to the windy Alaska Peninsula for the big browns -- and all the other big game Alaska had to offer brave hunters. Hunting, the Way it Was, is more than an Alaskan big game guide's story -- it's LeNora Conkle's biography as well. She was there -- This is her story, and Bud's. These are not the flowered up narratives of a professional journalist, but the true tales of two amazing Alaskans and what they did for a living. This is the story of hunting in Alaska, the way it was, but will never be again.
