American Rebel: The Life of Clint Eastwood By Marc Eliot 2009 | 241 Pages | ISBN: 0307336883 | PDF | 1 MB As an actor, he seduces us with his tough-guy charm. As a director and producer, he amazes us with his artistry and technical savvy. As a Hollywood icon, Clint Eastwood, one of film's greatest living legends, represents some of the finest cinematic achievements in the history of American cinema. In American Rebel, bestselling author and acclaimed film historian Marc Eliot examines the ever-exciting, often-tumultuous arc of Clint Eastwood's life and career. Unlike past biographers, Eliot writes with unflinching candor about Eastwood's highs and lows, his artistic successes and failures, and the fascinating, complex relationship between his life and his craft. Eliot's prodigious research reveals how a college dropout and unambitious playboy rose to fame as Hollywood' s "sexy rebel," eventually and against all odds becoming a star in the Academy pantheon as a multiple Oscar winner. Spanning decades, American Rebel covers the best of Eastwood' s oeuvre, films that have fast become American classics-Fistful of Dollars, Dirty Harry, Unforgiven, Mystic River, Million Dollar Baby, and Gran Torino. Filled with remarkable insights into Eastwood's personal life and public work, American Rebel is highly entertaining and the most complete biography of one of Hollywood's truly respected and beloved stars-an actor who, despite being the Man with No Name, has left his indelible mark on the world of motion pictures.  American Indian Education: Counternarratives in Racism, Struggle, and the Law (The Critical Educator) By Matth Fletcher 2008 | 240 Pages | ISBN: 0415957346 | PDF | 2 MB America Indian culture and traditions have survived an unusual amount of oppressive federal and state educational policies intended to assimilate Indian people and destroy their cultures and languages. Yet, Indian culture, traditions, and people often continue to be treated as objects in the classroom and in the curriculum. Using a critical race theory framework and a unique "counternarrative" methodology, American Indian Education explores a host of modern educational issues facing American Indian peoples-from the impact of Indian sports mascots on students and communities, to the uses and abuses of law that often never reach a courtroom, and the intergenerational impacts of American Indian education policy on Indian children today. By interweaving empirical research with accessible composite narratives, Matthew Fletcher breaches the gap between solid educational policy and the on-the-ground reality of Indian students, highlighting the challenges faced by American Indian students and paving the way for an honest discussion about solutions.  American Indian Constitutional Reform and the Rebuilding of Native Nations By Eric D. Lemont 2006 | 360 Pages | ISBN: 0292713177 | PDF | 2 MB Since 1975, when the U.S. government adopted a policy of self-determination for American Indian nations, a large number of the 562 federally recognized nations have seized the opportunity to govern themselves and determine their own economic, political, and cultural futures. As a first and crucial step in this process, many nations are revising constitutions originally developed by the U.S. government to create governmental structures more attuned to native people's unique cultural and political values. These new constitutions and the governing institutions they create are fostering greater governmental stability and accountability, increasing citizen support of government, and providing a firmer foundation for economic and political development. This book brings together for the first time the writings of tribal reform leaders, academics, and legal practitioners to offer a comprehensive overview of American Indian nations' constitutional reform processes and the rebuilding of native nations. The book is organized in three sections. The first part investigates the historical, cultural, economic, and political motivations behind American Indian nations' recent reform efforts. The second part examines the most significant areas of reform, including criteria for tribal membership/citizenship and the reform of governmental institutions. The book concludes with a discussion of how American Indian nations are navigating the process of reform, including overcoming the politics of reform, maximizing citizen participation, and developing short-term and long-term programs of civic education.  American Hardcore (Second Edition): A Tribal History by Steven Blush, George Petros English | October 19, 2010 | ISBN: 1932595899 | 408 pages | EPUB | 25 Mb "American Hardcore sets the record straight about the last great American subculture"Paper magazine  American Generations: Who They Are and How They Live - 6th edition By New Strategist Editors 2008 | 459 Pages | ISBN: 1933588950 | PDF | 3 MB Age is the most important indicator of lifestyle, determining educational attainment, household composition, labor force status, income, wealth, and spending patterns. American Generations explores all these areas so you can quickly and easily see the trends-without having to do the number crunching yourself. The fourth edition of American Generations compares and contrasts the five living age groups: Millennials, born 1977-94; Generation X, born 1965-76; Baby Boom, born 1946-64; Swing, born 1933-1945; and World War II generation, born before 1933. The book opens with an in-depth overview of the demographics of the generations, followed by ten chapters covering attitudes and behavior, education, health, housing, income, labor force, living arrangements, population, spending, and wealth. This edition is particularly valuable because it presents important 2000 census multiracial counts, as well as New Strategist's proprietary projections of racial and ethnic groups by age to 2010.  American Ethics: An Introduction to Pragmatist Moral Philosophy by Diana Heney English | 2025 | ISBN: 0197784232 | 273 Pages | PDF | 6.9 MB  Sebastian Edwards, "American Default: The Untold Story of FDR, the Supreme Court, and the Battle over Gold" English | ISBN: 0691161887 | 2018 | 288 pages | MOBI | 7 MB The untold story of how FDR did the unthinkable to save the American economy  Michael A Soukup, "American Covenant: National Parks, Their Promise, and Our Nation's Future" English | ISBN: 0300140355 | 2021 | 216 pages | AZW3 | 2 MB An intimate and candid account of our national parks detailing their strengths, vulnerabilities, and essential role in American life  Shannon Lee Dawdy, "American Afterlives: Reinventing Death in the Twenty-First Century" English | ISBN: 0691210640 | 2021 | 272 pages | AZW3 | 12 MB A mesmerizing trip across America to investigate the changing face of death in contemporary life  America's Mom: The Life, Lessons, and Legacy of Ann Landers By Rick Kogan 2005 | 288 Pages | ISBN: 0060750987 | PDF | 1 MB For two generations of Americans, reading Ann Landers's daily column was as important as eating breakfast. For nearly fifty years an entire nation turned to this quick-witted, worldly-wise counselor for advice on everything from dinner etiquette to sex. But who was the woman behind the byline? Iowa-born Eppie Lederer was first hired by the Chicago Sun-Times to take over the daily advice column in 1955 -- and over the next half-century she helped shape the nation's social and sexual landscape. Award-winning journalist Rick Kogan was Ann Landers's last editor and close friend, and he paints a fascinating, full-bodied account of the triumphs, the wisdom, the courage, and the trials of one of the twentieth century's most enduring icons -- including her painful lifelong feud with her identical twin sister, "Dear Abby"; her stubborn refusal to shy away from even the most controversial topics; and the tragic breakup of her own thirty-six-year marriage. Filled with remarkable stories shared by people from all walks of life who were profoundly affected by the good sense and guidance of Ann Landers, America's Mom is a moving tribute to a singular woman who has earned an eternal place in our culture ... and our hearts. |
