pe pt a — e———— | New biographies at Mauney Memorial Library: Cooper. Duff. "Talleyrand" 9From International Publishing Company, 1986). This is the best biography of Talleyrand that has been published in English. This book illuminates his life, his times, and his work as he served seven French regimes and at the Congress of Vienna through masterful maneuvering in- sured that a defeated France would remain a power in Europe. Derr, Mark. "The Frontiersman; - The Life and Many Legends of Davy Crockett" (William Morrow and Company, 1993). Probably no figure in American history has been so frequently in- terpreted, reinterpreted and misin- terpreted as Davy Crockett. Amazingly enough, until this biog- raphy no one ha sifted through the surviving historical documents to find out the truth about the man who, for over a century and a half, has been one of the most enduring American symbols. Friedman, Jan M. "America's First Woman Lawyer: The Biography of Myra Bradwell" (Fromethus Books, 1993). During her lifetime, Bradwell did more to establish and aid the rights of women and other legally handicapped people than any other woman of her day. This book chronicles the tortuous steps Bradwell took to establish the right to practice law. Judd, Naomi. "Love Can Build a Bridge" (Villard Books, 1993). Here, at last, is the exquisitely primal story of a mother and daughter who sing like angels and fought like the devil, but loved each other through struggle, tri- umph and tragedy. Kaufman, Beatrice I. "The Presidency of James Earl Carter Jr." (University Press of Kansas, 1993). This is a critical yet judicious account of the Carer administration and the first broad and extensive research in the Carter library. Kaufman presents a portrait of a president who lacked a clear sense of purpose and thus became the ROSE TURNER @ | KM Librarian creature of events rather than their master. Miller, Nathan. "Theodore Roosevelt: A Life" (William Morrow and Company, Inc., 1992). Miller's comprehensive biogra- phy of Theodore Roosevelt is the first complete one volume life of the Rough Rider to be published in over 30 years. Using new docu- mentary sources, he illuminates both the private and public worlds of the leader. Oates, Stephen B. "A Woman of Valor: Clara Barton and the Civil War" (The Free Press, 1994). When the Civil War broke out, Clara Barton wanted more than anything to be a Union soldier, an impossible dream for a 39 year old woman who stood a slender five feet tall. Determined to serve, she became a veritable soldier, a nurse, and a one woman relief agency op- erating in the heart of the conflict. Drawing on archival material not used by previous biographers, Oates has written the first complete account of Clara Barton's active engagement in the Civil War. Price, Reynolds. "A Whole New Life" (Atheneum, 1994). This book offers more than the portrait of one brave person in tribulation. It offers honest insight, realistic encouragement, and inspi- ration to others who suffer the baf- flement of catastrophic illness and who have survived. Rather, Dan and Mickey Hershowitz. "The Camera Never Blinks Twice" (William Morrow and Company, Inc., 1994). Reporting every night to more than 13 million people on the CBS Evening News, Dan Rather has been called outrageous, outspoken, but never outclassed. In this new book he tells exhilarating and thought-provoking tales that pro- 5 a ey v heck Out Your CHRYSLER Plymouti Dodge Jeep, EAGLE VOYAGERS Biographies at Mauney Library vide ample evidence of why he has earned the reputation of premier newsman of his generation. Roosevelt, Theodore. "Theodore Roosevelt" (St. Martin's Press, 1994) Conservationalist hunter, racist and egalitarian, mili- tarist and Nobel peace prize win- ner, conservative and leader for progressive reform, Theodore Roosevelt embodied many of the dichotomous that have dominated American history. The selections, together with an essay recounting TR's remarkable life, challenge us to explain how this man could be so unique and yet so typically American. Stern, Howard. "Private Parts" (Simon Schuster, 1993). Who is Howard Stern and why does he say the most outrageous things? Ask millions of devoted fans who tune in to his notorious daily radio talk show where he de- flates celebrities’ egos, attacks the politically correct, and defies the FCC. : Teicher, Morton I. "Looking Homeward; A Thomas Wolfe Photo Album" (University of Missouri Press, 1993). American novelist Thomas Wolfe led a short but turbulent life. His writing was almost purely au- tobiographical, poignantly copying his experiences and pursuits, Now for the first time, Teicher lets us see all the real life places behind the fiction of Thomas Wolfe in a collection of 245 pictures that chronicle the great writers' life in a way that no words could. Thacker, Margaret. "The Downing Street Years." (harper Collins Publishers, 1993). This is first and foremost a bril- liant first and portrayal of events and personalities in Thacher's years in power. Even more important, she sets out with forcefulness and conviction the reason for her be- liefs and how she sought to turn them into action. and avid - Thursday, June 1, 1555 -THE KINGS MOUNTAIN HERALD-Pagr-5B RAR DELTA MILLS CATAWBA PLANT Employee of the Year RT Pictured Left To Right: A.
