Books about Beulahs from Amazon.com

The poems in this unusual book tell a story, forming a narrative almost like a realistic novel. Read in sequence as intended, they tell of the lives of a married black couple (not unlike Dove's own grandparents) from the early part of the century until their deaths in the 1960s, a period that spans the great migration of blacks from rural south to urban north. But this is merely the social backdrop to the story of a marriage. Two separate sequences offer two views of the couple's lives: the first, "Mandolin," consists of 23 poems giving Thomas's side, and "Canary in Bloom" gives Beulah's in 21 poems. Together they paint a detailed, poetically dense portrait of two lives in all their frailty, dignity and complexity. The collection was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for poetry in 1987..

Into thin air...

Three little girls, one by one, had vanished from the farming village of Dendale And Superintendent Andy Dalziel, a young detective in those days, never found their bodies--or the person who snatched them. Then the valley where Dendale stood was flooded to create a reservoir, and the town itself ceased to be . . . except in Dalziel's memory.

Twelve years later, the threads of past and present are slowly winding into a chilling mosaic. A drought and dropping water table have brought Dendale's ruins into view. And a little girl has gone missing from a nearby village. Helped by Chief Inspector Peter Pascoe, an older, fatter, and wiser Dalziel has a second chance to uncover the secrets of a drowned valley. And now the identity of a killer rests on what one child saw . . . and what another, now grown, fears with all her heart to remember . . . ..

Having knee problems? Wishing to remain active? Don’t remove your knee tissue—Re-build it! Consider Prolotherapy as your alternative to invasive (often debilitating) knee surgery.

Have you ever been told... "You will never be the player you once were." "The only thing we can do is operate again." "We have to consider cortisone as an option." "The rehabilitation process will take a year to 18 months." "The only thing we can offer you is a stronger anti-inflammatory."

What if Mickey Mantle’s knees didn’t give out so early in his career---what records would he have set? How many Super Bowls would Joe Namath had won if his knees were not so severely damaged? How many more Stanley Cups would Bobby Orr have lifted over his head? Wouldn’t he have been the greatest hockey player of all time if he hadn’t had such bad knees?

These athletes played in another era when surgical procedures to repair damaged knees were not as sophisticated as those of today. But—what about today’s athletes who have had the benefit of the latest in medical surgical science, anti-inflammatories and pain killers? Aren’t there still many active people, as well as athletes---famous and not---who have had to give up careers and quality of life because of knee injuries?

This revolutionary book, Prolotherapy An Alternative to Knee Surgery, is dedicated to those athletes and active people who have been told, "surgery will no longer be a benefit," "your career is over," and, "arthritis and eventual knee replacement is what you have to look forward to."

Prolotherapy is a simple injection technique that stimulates the body’s own repair mechanism to heal injured ligaments, tendons, cartilage and other connective tissues. It has the potential to eliminate 650,000 arthroscopies and 250,000 joint replacements that occur each year to "treat" knee arthritis. Prolotherapy has been saving thousands of people from getting surgery, cortisone shots, and anti-inflammatory medications which do nothing to curb the underlying degenerative process.

Ross A. Hauser, M.D., along with his wife Marion, are authors of the national best seller Prolo Your Pain Away! and Prolo Your Sports Injuries Away! Ross and Marion are experienced marathon runners and Ross is a triathlete. Both of them use Prolotherapy to keep active in sports..

Set during the tense days of the Oklahoma oil rush, Rilla Askew's Fire in Beulah is a mesmerizing story that centers on the complex relationship between Althea Whiteside, an oil wildcatter's high-strung wife, and Graceful, her enigmatic black maid. Their juxtaposing stories-and those of others close to them-unfold against a volatile backdrop of oil-boom opulence, fear, hatred, and lynchings that climax in the Tulsa Race Riot of 1921, when whites burned the city's prosperous black community. Askew's award-winning first novel, The Mercy Seat, was praised for its astute depiction of family bonds and the beauty of the American landscape. Now she explores the American race story with the same perception.

"A tinderbox of a novel . . . and one that deftly blends historical fact with fiction." (The Boston Globe).
