Tom's Foods and the Transformation of the Twentieth-Century South

A Legacy in Peanuts

A compelling historical biography that offers an in-depth look at one of Texas' most influential and controversial figures during the tumultuous mid-19th century. This meticulously researched work by John A. Adams, Jr. provides a vivid portrayal of Oran Milo Roberts' life, from his humble beginnings in Alabama to his rise as a prominent jurist and political leader in Texas. The biography expertly weaves Roberts' personal story with the broader historical context of Texas and the nation, shedding light on the motivations and beliefs that drove Roberts and many of his contemporaries. It provides a nuanced understanding of the complex social, political, and economic forces that shaped the state's development and skillfully examines Roberts' evolving political views, particularly his staunch advocacy for states' rights and his eventual embrace of secession. Adams' engaging narrative style brings historical figures to life, offering readers a front-row seat to the debates and decisions that shaped Texas history. The Old Alcalde is essential reading for scholars of Texas history, Civil War enthusiasts, and anyone interested in understanding the complex dynamics that led to the secession of Texas from the Union.

Life and Times of a Texas Fire-Eater, Oran Milo Roberts

The Old Alcalde

IN THE WALL STREET boom of the 1980s and 1990s, fortunes were made, markets were invented, and the rules were still being written. Where others saw risk, Tom Jasper recognized opportunity, but never at the expense of his ethical code. Wall Street Maverick is as much the story of Jasper's contributions to derivatives, swaps, and credit markets as it is the story of a career defined by adaptability, curiosity, and a willingness to operate on the edge. He navigated steep learning curves to thrive in a highly competitive--and sometimes cutthroat--environment. This is no typical Wall Street memoir. It is, instead, a front-row account of how one modern financial market was built, told by a man who helped build it. At the start of his career, Jasper stumbled into Lower Manhattan and seized opportunities to transform his trademark high risk tolerance into innovation. He recounts building and running Salomon Brothers' successful interest rate swap desk (one of the largest in the industry), helping found and co-chair the ISDA by uniting fiercely competitive market participants, and later creating new credit default swap distribution models at Primus Guaranty. Innovation, however, never came without danger. Jasper writes candidly about navigating scandal, global crises, and the 2008 financial meltdown--surviving by staying flexible, surrounding himself with exceptional talent, and never losing his moral compass as he walked the tightrope between risk and respect for the bottom line. Wall Street Maverick offers a rare, honest look at building a career--and an industry--on the knife's edge between risk and reward.

Wall Street Maverick: Musings on a Career of Innovation, Derivatives, Credit, and Risk

A deep, intimate, and revelatory portrait of RBG from her two authorized biographers who had unprecedented access to the Justice and her papers. Long before she was “The Notorious RBG,” before she was Justice Ginsburg or Judge Ginsburg or Professor Ginsburg, before she was even Ruth, she was Kiki —a nickname bestowed on the squirmy newborn by her big sister. Kiki grew up to be a feminist icon. After she died, she was criticized for not giving a Democratic President the chance to name her successor. What happened in between often gets lost – until now. In Undaunted Justice, Hartnett and Williams offer a full picture of the woman and the jurist, and why those two parts of her were so deeply intertwined. The book contains new revelations about Ginsburg’s life and legacy, her behind the scenes role in several landmark cases, and her relationships with her colleagues on the Court. She was exacting and demanding. Imbued with an innate sense of fairness and a deep personal gift for making alliances when possible. A compartmentalizer at heart with a strong desire to “not look back,” which made possible her legendary productivity but could sometimes hinder her capacity for critical self-reflection. Reserved and socially awkward to some who didn’t know her well, but fiercely loyal and empathetic to clients, colleagues, friends and family. A surprising adventure seeker, even white-water rafting and parasailing, and horseback-riding into her eighties. But ultimately, this biography – more than 20 years in the making and based on exclusive interviews with the Justice, her family, colleagues and friends from all stages of her life, her private papers and even her honeymoon diary -- shows what it took for a woman of her generation not only to conquer the sexist world of the law, but to leave an indelible mark that would better the lives of women–and men–after her.

In these pages, journalist and writer Pablo-Ignacio de Dalmases offers a courageous investigation that redefines the traditional, even iconic, image we have of Lorca today. This essay, which focuses on his gay identity, breaks new ground in biographical literature, offering us an intimate and daring portrait that takes us by the hand through the most significant--and unknown--aspect of the poet's intense life and emphasizes an aspect that no author had detected until now: the subsequent ideological evolution of his lovers, all of whom--except one, who remained faithful to his socialist and republican identity--ended up, in contrast to the poet's sad fate, firmly identified with Francoism. With its eloquent, entertaining, and well-documented prose, Federico's Fiancés promises to be essential reading not only for the LGBT community, Hispanists, and lovers of literature, but also for those interested in the cultural genealogy of our time. Every page of this work is imbued with respect and admiration for Lorca, delving into the struggles, loves, and passions of a man who lived with a complex and affirming nature, not without contradictions. This book not only celebrates his literary genius, but also humanizes the poet, showing us the many facets of his psychology and opening up lines of reflection on the construction of gay identity in postmodernity.

S.S. Pierce: A Boston Tradition chronicles the history of Samuel Pierce's iconic gourmet food and wine emporium. When Samuel Stillman Pierce opened his store in 1831, he vowed, "I may not make money for the next five years, but I shall make a reputation." Pierce went on to become well known as the purveyor of groceries, fancy goods, wines, and spirits to Bostonians in the nineteenth century, as well as providing provisions to the ships that sailed from Boston Harbor. Bartering with ship captains, he often exchanged his provisions for the delicacies that were brought to Boston from faraway ports. His renowned store catered to the carriage trade, and the company would be headed by four generations of the Pierce family. With its own coat of arms adorning a distinctive red label on canned goods, bearing the motto Puritas et Cura, and the largest line of privately packed fancy foods in the world, S.S. Pierce &amp; Company sold its wide assortment of delicacies at a chain of stores as well as through distributors across the United States and worldwide by mail order. S.S. Pierce &amp; Company was sold in 1967 to Laird Corporation, and in 1972 to Seneca Foods. Since 1986, it has been a part of Kraft Foods Group and M.S. Walker. In his book S.S. Pierce: A Boston Tradition, Anthony M. Sammarco recounts memories of the past and the shared tradition of how Bostonians reveled in the gourmet foods, fine wines, and Madeira of a once stalwart business.

Die Literarisierung der Angst begann um 1800, als kulturelle Ordnungsvorstellungen erodierten und die aufgeklärte Vernunft sich zunehmend ihren verunsichernden Schattenseiten und irritierenden Doppelgängern gegenübersah. Die Beiträger*innen gehen in exemplarischen Lektüren literarischen Inszenierungen von Furcht und Schrecken für diesen Zeitraum bis zur Gegenwart nach - mit besonderem Fokus auf den deutschen Schauerroman und die anglo-schottische Gothic Novel. Dabei analysieren sie&nbsp;Motivtraditionen, Erzählverfahren und emotionale Semantiken literarischer Angst(-Lust), die sie als Effekt und Resonanzraum moderner Verunsicherungserfahrungen rekonstruieren.

The Secret Story of the World's Greatest Disruptor, Masayoshi Son

Gambling Man

Argues Shakespeare was a dark-skinned Jewish woman, Emilia Bassano, challenging the traditional authorship and gender perceptions. Was Shakespeare a white man from Stratford? Debate still rages over the identity of the most beloved poet of all time and 'father' of the English-speaking world. Generations of researchers have tried to dismantle the myth of the Stratford man. Now, in this intriguing and well-documented book, Irene Coslet conclusively demonstrates that Shakespeare was a not a man, but a woman: a dark-skinned lady, of Jewish origin, born into a family of Court musicians from Venice, and the mother of the English-speaking world. Her name was Emilia Bassano. Based on a re-examination of often-overlooked historical documents, shrewd, chilling, and profound, this volume offers extensive evidence that Emilia was the author of the canon. This is not just a book about the authorship debate: it is about the condition of women at the time Shakespeare was writing. It explains that feminism already existed in Elizabethan and Jacobean England. It reveals not only that Shakespeare was a woman, but also that she defended women. It reintegrates Emilia in the context of the time, for example, by exploring the relationship between Emilia and Queen Elizabeth I. The reader will leave this book with a sense of wonder, transformation, and will experience a paradigm shift. Be prepared to meet the next feminist icon.
