réf. A9780813954875Hardback. New. The first biography of one of Virginia's greatest social reformers When Dr. Kate Waller Barrett died in 1925 the governor of Virginia ordered flags to be flown at half-staff the first time in its four-century history that the commonwealth paid such a tribute to a woman. This is the first biography of Barrett the ardent and remarkably successful Progressive Era social reformer. Barrett's life spanned a time of seismic change in the nation and in women's lives particularly Southern women as they forged new identities in the changing environment of the post–Civil War years and the Progressive era. Barrett rebelled against the restrictions imposed on Southern women and established her reputation as a strong-willed advocate for what many people at the time considered to be society's "outcasts": unwed mothers and prostitutes. She successfully combined evangelism with a maternalist strategy that brought a uniquely feminine approach to bear on social issues affecting women and children and her years of activism propelled her onto the national stage and earned her global recognition. President Theodore Roosevelt called her "one of the most useful women in the United States." The outcast and lonely women of Richmond's slums of Butchertown called her simply "Mother Barrett." hardcover

1994réf. 68940Various places 1994. Frank Waters 1902-1995 was perhaps the preeminent writer of the American Southwest in the 20th century. His writings described the culture of the Southwest in all of its diversity - Anglo Hispanic and Native American. He wrote fiction history and interpretive studies. Terence A. Terry Tanner a friend of many in the book trade was a respected antiquarian book dealer and at the time of his death in 2003 was owner of the Chicago-based firm Hamill & Barker. Terry was born in Chicago in 1948 attended Knox College in Galesburg IL where he met the antiquarian book seller Clare Van Norman Sr. who introduced him to the book trade. When Terry graduated from Knox College in 1970 he moved back to Chicago where he found a job working as the office manager for Van Allen Bradley the rare book dealer and literary editor of the Chicago Daily News. Tanner next worked as an assistant to the distinguished antiquarian Kenneth Nebenzahl and in 1975 became an assistant to the well-known booksellers Frances Hamill and Margery Barker. He became the sole owner of their firm in 1987 following the death of Ms. Hamill Ms. Barker having died in 1980. Terry was introduced to the writings of Frank Waters by Morton Weisman of the Swallow Press in 1970. He continued purchasing books by Waters throughout the early and middle 1970's and near the end of that decade decide to undertake a descriptive bibliography of Waters' work. That bibliography was published by Meyerbooks of Glenwood Illinois in the late summer of 1983 as Frank Waters: A Bibliography with Relevant Selections from His Correspondence. This collection is the basis for that bibliography. The collection contains the first printing of every primary work published by Frank Waters from his first book published in 1930. Moreover every copy is present in the original dust jacket and was the product of continual upgrading. In addition the collection contains numerous later printings of all of Waters's books including some that are rarer than the first printings. For example while preparing his bibliography Terry was unable to locate a copy of the paperback printing of Diamond Head issued under the title Secret Affair. That printing finally was added to the collection. Frank Waters destroyed the manuscripts for his early books and those that exist for most of his other works are already in institutions. The Tanner collection contains the corrected carbon typescript of the manuscript for Leon Gaspard which is probably the only manuscript of Frank Waters in private hands. The Tanner collection must certainly rank among the very best collections of Frank Waters in private hands today. A detailed inventory with all the items listed according to Tanner's bibliography in chronological order is available on request. unknown
