    Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} The Valley Of Decision by Marcia Davenport ISBN 13: 9780002218757. Originally published in 1942, The Valley of Decision was an instant success, and its story of four generations of the Scott family—owners and operators of a Pittsburgh iron and steel works—has since captured the imagination of generations of readers. Absorbing and complex, it chronicles the family’s saga from the economic panic of 1873 through the dramatic rise of American industry and trade unionism, through waves of immigration, class conflict, natural disaster, World War I, and Pearl Harbor. In 1945 it was made into a major motion picture starring Greer Garson and Gregory Peck. This reissue features a new foreword by noted steel industry historian John Hoerr, author of And the Wolf Finally Came, who places the novel in context as a classic depiction of twentieth-century America. "synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title. The novel is set in Pittsburgh but, as The Saturday Review of Literatures commented, it is 'a cavalcade of America, industrially, socially, and domestically.' About the Author : Marcia Davenport (1903–1996) was the author of numerous works of fiction and a biography of Mozart. Her autobiography, Too Strong for Fantasy , was published in 1967.

  • THE CLANTONS and MCLAURYS Like Many of Their Contemporaries, the Clantons Were a Missouri Family That Migrated to the West Following the American Civil War
    TOMBSTONE PERSONALITIES THE CLANTONS and MCLAURYS Like many of their contemporaries, the Clantons were a Missouri family that migrated to the west following the American Civil War. In the 1870s Newman “Old Man” Clanton and his sons Phineas (Finn), Ike and William (Billy), relocated to Arizona and started a cattle ranch. By 1877 they operated the largest and most successful cattle ranch in the territory. They also were the epicenter of a large, unruly group of semi-organized criminals known to history as The Cowboys. Although not as organized and close knit as western myth has portrayed them, the Cowboys were a force to be reckoned with. The Clanton’s ranch was their unofficial headquarters and at one point or another, many of the Cowboys worked for the family. While the Clantons were primarily occupied with cattle rustling, other members of the gang robbed stagecoaches, banks and stores. The gang committed many of their crimes across the border in Mexico and Mexican authorities registered many official complaints with the United States, usually to no avail. The two most famous members of the Clanton family are Ike and Billy. Both were involved in the Gunfight at the OK corral, the bloody culmination of events that ended the feud between them and the Earps. The tensions between the two factions were a combination of political, economic and philosophical differences. The Clantons saw the Earps as interlopers who were trying to build their political careers at the expense of them and their Cowboy friends. Ike Clanton has been branded by legend as a blowhard and coward and history backs this up.

"There is a great industrial story of days and nights and months and years behind the manner in which Dr. Kalmus and his associates have boosted the quality and service of color to the industry, beaten down the price step by step, and maintained a great spirit of cooperation with production and exhibition.

D OMESTIC box office standings take on values in this year of vanished foreign markets that are tremendous in importance. They are the only ratings that mean anything to the producer, director, player, and exhibitor. Gone—at least for years to come—are the days when known box office failures in the American market could be pushed to fabulous income heights and foisted on the suffering American exhibitor because of a shadowy "for¬ eign value.” Gone are the days—and we hope forever—when producers could know¬ ingly, and with "malice aforethought,” set out on the production of top budgetted pictures that would admittedly have no appeal to American mass audiences, earn no dimes for American exhibitors. All because of that same shadowy foreign market. ^ ^ So THE DIGEST ANNUAL comes to you at an opportune time.

    The Escape! Radio Program Dee-Scription: Home >> D D Too Home >> Radio Logs >> Escape! Background Dramas of escape, romance and adventure comprised a great deal of the drama anthologies during the Golden Age of Radio. One might well make the argument that adventure dramas broadcast over one canon or another throughout the era were among the top five most popular genres of the era. They also found their way into any number of adventure productions, a sampling of which follow: 1930 World Adventures 1931 Strange Adventure 1932 Bring'em Back Alive 1932 Captain Diamond’s Adventures 1932 Captain Jack 1932 The Elgin Adventurer's Club 1932 World Adventurer's Club 1933 The Stamp Adventurer’s Club 1935 The Desert Kid 1935 Magic Island 1937 The Cruise of The Poll Parrot 1937 True Adventures 1937 Your Adventurers 1939 Imperial Intrigue 1939 The Order of Adventurers 1940 Thrills and Romance 1941 Adventure Stories 1942 Road to Danger 1942 The Whistler 1943 Escape From . 1943 Foreign Assignment 1943 Romance 1944 Adventure Ahead 1944 Dangerously Yours 1944 Stories of Escape 1944 The Man Called 'X' 1944 Vicks Matinee Theater 1945 Adventure 1946 Tales of Adventure 1947 Adventure Parade 1947 Escape! 1947 High Adventure 1947 The Adventurer's Club 1948 This Is Adventure 1949 Dangerous Assignment 1950 Stand By for Adventure 1952 Escape with Me 1953 The Adventurer 1974 CBS Radio Mystery Theater 1977 General Mills Radio Adventure Theater 1977 CBS Radio Adventure Theater Announcement of Escape to air in the summer of 1947 During an era when the word 'romance' still implied adventure as well as emotional and physical passion, the words 'romance' and 'adventure' were often viewed as synonymous with each other in the titles of hundreds of Radio canons of both the earliest and latest Golden Age Radio broadcasts.
