Advance Praise for Kat Tales

"If you enjoy hearing about animals getting the best of Katy Brown as much as I do, then you'll LOVE this book "

-Brad McElhinny, Managing Editor The Charleston Daily Mail

Life is anything but tame.

It's true that essayist Kathryn Brown knows how to tell a story. What's especially interesting is that Katy's success as an independent published author began with her amusing Facebook posts, considered a daily comic strip by her readers.

In her first book of non-fiction, Kat Tales, a memoir of life with animals, you'll discover for yourself how Katy's creativity runs wild Each adventure is laugh-out- loud funny, from a dangerous raccoon that she couldn't get rid of, to a pair of intruders that she couldn't wait to catch. Katy describes through vivid detail how even the smallest pet can turn into the biggest worry.

Katy's humorous criticism of her own life is highlighted by dueling dialogues and awkward attempts to explain her way out of wacky situations. Kat Tales may be a collection of short stories, but it's every bit of a reality show in print If you loved Lucy, then you'll adore Katy.

Examining a series of court decisions made during the 1980s regarding the legal claims of several Native American tribes who attempted to protect ancestrally revered lands from development schemes by the federal government, this book looks at important questions raised about the religious status of land. The tribes used the First Amendment right of free exercise of religion as the basis of their claim, since governmental action threatened to alter the land which served as the primordial sacred reality without which their derivative religious practices would be meaningless. Brown argues that a constricted notion of religion on the part of the courts, combined with a pervasive cultural predisposition towards land as private property, marred the Constitutional analysis of the courts to deprive the Native American plaintiffs of religious liberty.

Brown looks at four cases, which raised the issue at the federal district and appellate court levels, centered on lands in Tennessee, Utah, South Dakota, and Arizona; then it considers a fifth case regarding land in northwestern California, which ultimately went to the U.S. Supreme Court. In all cases, the author identifies serious deficiencies in the judicial evaluations. The lower courts applied a conception of religion as a set of beliefs and practices that are discrete and essentially separate from land, thus distorting and devaluing the fundamental basis of the tribal claims. It was this reductive fixation of land as property, implicit in the rulings of the first four cases, that became explicitly sanctioned and codified in the Supreme Court's decision in "Lyng v. Northwest Indian Cemetery Protective Association" of 1988. In reaching such a position, the Supreme Court injudiciously engaged in a policy determination to protect government land holdings, and did so through a shocking repudiation of its own long established jurisprudential procedure in cases concerning the free exercise of religion.

Voluntarism, Planning, and the State presents a series of case studies of the planning process in the context of modern American history in the period between World War I and World War II. Each essay draws on the works of leading scholars in the field and attempts to make specific evaluations of broad generalizations about the planning experience in the United States. The studies examine such relevant topics as unemployment reform, labor relations, military peacetime planning, New Deal planning, and the postwar debate over price and wage controls.
