Kathleen Velsor lives in Bayville,
New York on the North Shore of Long Island. She was born in
Rochester, New York. As a girl she lived in nearby LeRoy, New
York - an up-state stopping point on the Underground Railroad
- and remembers hearing local stories about fugitive slaves.
She earned her Doctorate in Education and Research from The
University of Cincinnati in Ohio. Dr. Velsor has uncovered a
rich history of anti-slavery activity on Long Island that started
at least two decades before 1775, the year that the Quakers
from Westbury began to free their slaves.
|
 Dr
Velsor is an associate professor in the School of Education at
SUNY Old Westbury. She is co-author of the non-fiction book The
Road to Freedom: the Underground Railroad, New York and Beyond,
and author of Friends of Freedom: Anti-Slavery Struggle in Queens
and Long Island. She speaks frequently to middle
and high school students about her topic.
The book is written from the author's role in the
Underground Railroad Teaching Partnership at SUNY Old Westbury,
and we envision it being read to fourth-graders in their local
history studies, and read by middle and high school students as
they explore local history in and beyond the classroom. We hope
as well to encourage college students and others to pursue knowledge
about the Underground Railroad in their own towns. |

Candace Moose lives in Huntington, New York, on the
North Shore of Long Island. She received immunizations in August
2001 in anticipation of traveling to Malawi, Africa, to help children
suffering from AIDS. Soon after the shots she fell prey to an
extraordinarily rare and generally fatal disease known as giant
cell myocarditis. She received a heart transplant that October,
and fought bravely and successfully to survive many obstacles
in her recovery. She received caring help from many hands as she
healed – from doctors, nurses, and other medical staff as
well as family, church, and friends near and far. This book is
an expression of her faith and gratefulness. |

Eight
Days in Provence
a
moment of sensualité
By
Jennifer Huntley • Photographs by the author
© Jennifer Huntley, November 2004
ISBN 0-9711869-1-X • Rosalie Ink Publications www.RosalieInk.com
• Hard cover,
160 pages 5-1/2" x 8-1/4"
FINALIST - Book of the Year -
ForeWord Magazine ...more
Set in the sensuous countryside of Provence, this travel memoir
is a journey of the spirit, a love story with a pre-set ending.
When Jennifer Huntley meets James, he calls her Jenny, a new name
with its own sweet innocence and daring. As it has for so many
artists, the stronger sun of Provence softens Jennifer’s
heart. For eight days a love affair grows, nurtured by the evocative
tastes, smells and sights in this romantic landscape. Both lovers
know that in eight days they will part and their affair will end.
What they do not know is that they have led parallel lives, and
as personal secrets are revealed, their intimacy grows. This is
a delightfully written story of universal truths and feelings,
a “good-girl, bad-girl” journey of innermost thoughts
told with honesty, passion and humor. Its selected photographs,
each illuminated by a favorite quotation from Van Gogh, enhance
the journey. |

A
beautifully illustrated small book - Kindnesses . . . A journey
through the seasons of grief - poems, prayers, and joyous observations
- is newly published by Long Island author Terry Walton. The book
is drawn from a journal kept during the illness and death of the
author's sister six years ago, and reflects the solace of kindnesses
shown her at that time. Watercolor illustrations by artist Byrd
Platt appear throughout the text.
Kindnesses includes poems and prayers sent by friends and
intermixed with the author's grateful and cheering observations,
arranged by season, of the ordinary details of her day. The book
is described as "absolutely delightful - poignant and heartfelt
and so wise."
Kindnesses'
final cover proof was received by the author moments after two
planes hit New York's World Trade Center; the book's dedication
adds: "And, as this book goes to press, to the September
11 friends, families, and rescuers."

offer your own kindnesses experience, or poems and prayers, please
