Africa and Archaeology: Empowering an Expatriate Life by Merrick Posnansky
Requirements: PDF Reader, 2.7 MB
Overview: In this stimulating account of his life’s experiences, renowned scholar and pioneer Africanist archaeologist Merrick Posnansky takes his readers on an unusual journey across the world, from his origins in a small Jewish community in Manchester to his adventures on archaeological sites in the villages of Africa before finally settling down to teach in Los Angeles.

A Jewish British expatriate in an African social world, Posnansky struggled to establish his racial identity in the British colonial world where Jewish communities were rare. He crossed racial and religious boundaries by marrying a Christian woman from Uganda, a highly unusual step at that time.

Written in a refreshing, candid style, these memoirs provide a fascinating glimpse into the changes taking place in modern Africa. Africa and Archaeology is a first hand account of the racial and religious prejudices of the twentieth century.

Hello Darlin’: Tall (and Absolutely True) Tales About My Life by Larry Hagman with Todd Gold
Requirements: ePUB Reader | 3.6 MB | Version: Retail
Overview: On November 21, 1980, over 350 million people worldwide tuned in to find out: "Who shot J.R.?"In portraying the scheming, ruthless J.R. in "Dallas" during its entire run, from 1978 to 1991, Larry Hagman reached a level of fame and recognition that is rare, if not unique. Now the man behind J.R. tells his own story in an autobiography that is at once rowdy and moving, self-searching and scandalous, juicy and a "recovery story" — and often outrageously funny. Though Larry Hagman is best known for his starring roles in two hugely successful — and very different — television series, "I Dream of Jeannie" and "Dallas, " his life has been a star act from birth. Born to the theatrical purple as the son of the legendary Mary Martin, Larry Hagman received his first exposure to the heady world of show business through her — as well as experiencing a childhood that was lavish and glamorous and full of problems. His father was a tough, smart, wealthy Texas lawyer (sound familiar?), his mother Broadway’s most beloved leading lady, and the young Larry Hagman was torn between their two very different worlds. After his parents’ marriage ended, he was shunted from one boarding school to another, trying to satisfy his father’s expectations by working as a cowboy, hunting, and raising hell and still to live up to his mother’s expectations in the world of the theater.
