Lacy DeMark is a first-grade Riverton teacher in the year 2032. The schools have become the nation's battlegrounds, and teachers are now trained in defensive disablement. They wear body armor to school and are trained as well and maybe even better than the nation's military. Though students have become increasingly difficult to control, to Lacy, the biggest problem at the moment is a six-year-old terror named Colter Stecks. In her efforts to get him the help he needs to control his violent outbursts, she finds herself chased, shot at, and the only barrier between Colter and his angry drugged-up father and uncle. Lacy grabs Colter and ducks into an old shed to hide, only to discover that the shed is an old mine shaft. The two crash through the rot-weakened floor and are left for dead by the men chasing them. After struggling to find a way out, they discover that although the field and sunshine they encounter as they leave the shaft look like home, they are no longer anywhere or anywhen near it. Their first clue-her cell phone has no service. The second clue-the two men riding toward them on horses are dressed only in leather pants and boots. They are not friendly men-these are predators. As is her habit, Lacy sings as she easily defends herself and Colter from these men, only to discover that there are more men riding toward them. Lacy stares in exhaustion at the tall handsome warrior leading this new group of men. He stares back at her in disbelief...or is that admiration? Marek McKenzie saw the little singing warrior drop the two men he had been chasing. He is intrigued as he and his men approach. Lacy is injured, tired, and outnumbered. Though she strives to do her job and defend Colter again, she is unable to fight any longer. She is forced to trust the big man the others call Marek. Marek knows she needs him, and he is most happy to accommodate that need whether or not she accepts it willingly.

Collects over 150 years of key moments in the visual history of the Southern United States, with over two hundred photographs taken from 1850 to present The South is perhaps the most mythologized region in the United States and also one of the most depicted. Since the dawn of photography in the nineteenth century, photographers have articulated the distinct and evolving character of the South’s people, landscape, and culture and reckoned with its fraught history. Indeed, many of the urgent questions we face today about what defines the American experience—from racism, poverty, and the legacy of slavery to environmental disaster, immigration, and the changes wrought by a modern, global economy—appear as key themes in the photography of the South. The visual history of the South is inextricably intertwined with the history of photography and also the history of America, and is therefore an apt lens through which to examine American identity. A Long Arc: Photography and the American South accompanies a major exhibition at the High Museum of Art in Atlanta, with more than one hundred photographers represented, including Walker Evans, Robert Frank, Gordon Parks, William Eggleston, Sally Mann, Carrie Mae Weems, Dawoud Bey, Alec Soth, and An-My Lê. Insightful texts by Imani Perry, Sarah Kennel, Makeda Best, and Rahim Fortune, among others, illuminate this broad survey of photographs of the Southern United States as an essential American story.  Copublished by Aperture and High Museum of Art, Atlanta

This book shows you how your school can maintain its high standards despite financial obstacles. It shows you how to investigate various types and sources of money available to your school; monitor the use of scarce school resources; develop a school improvement plan which incorporates financial needs; and recruit, assign, and develop teachers and staff for maximum effectiveness.

This book explores the complex ways in which belonging, identity and time are entangled in shaping young people engagement with the middle years of school. The authors argue that these 'entanglements' need to be understood in ways that move beyond a focus on why individual young people engage with the middle years. Instead, there should be a focus on the socio-ecologies of particular places, and the ways in which these ecologies shape the possibilities of young people engaging productively in the middle years. Drawing on extensive qualitative data from an outer-urban metropolitan context, this book will appeal to scholars of sociology, education and policy studies.

In late 1846, Rudolph Friederich Kurz, a young and idealistic Swiss artist, came to the United States to study and paint American Indians. Because he also had to earn a living, he signed on with the Pierre Chouteau Jr. Company (commonly known as the American Fur Company) and traveled northward on the Missouri River to work as a clerk at Fort Berthold and Fort Union in present-day North Dakota. While living among fur traders and Indians of numerous tribes, Kurz filled a sketchbook and kept a detailed journal.

"On the Upper Missouri," an abridged and annotated version of his journal, is an invaluable source for information about Fort Union, the fur trade industry, and Indians of the northern plains. For this edition, editor Carla Kelly has preserved Kurz's style but included only those portions of greatest interest to readers today: his lively and detailed observations of people and activities at the fort. The volume also features 97 black-and-white drawings from Kurz's sketchbook.

As the author and artist of a heroine's surreal journey through a haunting southern landscape, Kelli Scott Kelley reveals the mastery of her craft and the strong narrative ability of her artwork. Borrowing from Roman mythology, Jungian analysis, and the psychology of fairy tales, Kelley presents a story of family dysfunction, atonement, and transformation.

Reproductions of her artwork -- mixed-media paintings executed on repurposed antique linens -- punctuate the tale of Accalia, who is tasked with recovering the arms of her father from the belly of the swamp monster. Visually and metaphorically, Accalia's odyssey enchants and displaces as Kelley delicately balances the disquieting with the familiar.

Rich in symbolism and expertly composed, Accalia and the Swamp Monster pulls readers into the physical realm through Kelley's chimerical imagery and then pushes them towards the inner world of the subconscious. To that end, Kelley's story is accompanied by essays from Jungian analyst Constance Romero and art historian Sarah Bonner.

A culmination of nearly a decade of work, introspection, and research, Accalia and the Swamp Monster is both an entrancing display of Kelley's art and an affirmation of the transformative power of fairy tales.
