Description
Rainy River LivesRainy River Lives is the long lost collection of stories of Ojibwe men and women as told by a hitherto unpublished, traditional Ojibwe storyteller, Maggie Wilson (1879 1940). Wilson lived on the Manitou Rapids Reserve on the Rainy River, which flows along the Ontario Minnesota border. When anthropologist Ruth Landes arrived at Rainy River to conduct her doctoral research in 1932, Wilson often worked with the young scholar, telling her many stories.
Rainy River Lives is the long-lost collection of stories of Ojibwe men and women as told by a hitherto unpublished, traditional Ojibwe storyteller, Maggie Wilson (1879-1940). Wilson lived on the Manitou Rapids Reserve on the Rainy River, which flows along the Ontario-Minnesota border. When anthropologist Ruth Landes arrived at Rainy River to conduct her doctoral research in 1932, Wilson often worked with the young scholar, telling her many stories. Their relationship continued after Landes returned to Columbia University. During the following decades, however, the letters and stories Wilson had sent Landes, which Landes had carefully collected, were lost. Only recently were they discovered in the basement of the Smithsonian Institution, where they had been misfiled with papers of another anthropologist.This rich set of narratives takes us inside the intimate world of Ojibwe families at the turn of the twentieth century, a time of great upheaval when the Ojibwes were being relocated onto reserves and required by the government to abandon their seasonal migrations and subsistence activities. These remarkably detailed stories of ordinary Native people, precisely through their everyday character, reveal much about Ojibwe cultural beliefs and paint a nuanced ethnographic portrait of Ojibwe life. In the distinctive voice of an exceptional and highly creative individual, the stories address both the culturally specific world of the Ojibwes and universal human themes of love, loss, and perseverance.

Love them!
Format: Paperback
“Calling Daisy Mitchell mine is a dream that I never planned on coming true but always hoped would.”
Gahhh my first FF and I’m hooked! Thank you Hannah!
Daisy and Bryce are as opposites as can be, one is pure sunshine and the other is as icy as can be but they couldn’t be more perfect for each other!
I love the slow burn with all the sexual tension as they pretend to date while living together. Love the way they take care of each other, the love and admiration so evident in the way they touch and look at each other. Their nicknames for each other is just so cute and perfect! I love these two so much!
Such a great addition to the Cherry Peak series! We get more of Johnny, who happens to be Daisy’s twin and I just can’t get enough of him either, he’s just so fun. And of course we get to see more of the rest of gang. Love these found family and I can’t wait for more!

Great resource for comic book writers
Format: Paperback
This book is exactly as advertised: a great collection of comic scripts by some of the best writers in the field. This is important for two reasons:
1) There is no set format for comic scripts, so seeing examples of how other people write theirs is invaluable.
2) It can be hard to find sample comic scripts online, especially by the top names in the field. Here's nine of them in one shot.
Reading this book will give you great insight into how comics are made, and also how some of the best creators in the field approach their craft.

Exactly what it says it is on the tin.
Format: Paperback
It's a collection of comic book scripts, written by some of the best in the business. I'd love it if there were more examples of the finished product, and a step-by-step of back-and-forth between writer and the rest of the creative team would be awesome, but if what you really want is examples of the real deal, this is it.

Great book
Format: Paperback
This is very similar to Panel Two, which I bought because of certain comic book writers that I enjoyed. Panel One is basically the same, which provide examples and even so "how to's" and "why's that" type of information.
