The Story of a Birmingham Jazz Man

Frank Doc Adams and Burgin Mathews

Doc

Doc is the autobiography of jazz elder statesman Frank Doc Adams, highlighting his role in Birmingham, Alabamas, historic jazz scene and tracing his personal adventure that parallels, in many ways, the story and spirit of jazz itself.

Doc tells the story of an accomplished jazz master, from his musical apprenticeship under John T. Fess Whatley and his time touring with Sun Ra and Duke Ellington to his own inspiring work as an educator and bandleader. Central to this narrative is the often-overlooked story of Birminghams unique jazz tradition and community. From the very beginnings of jazz, Birmingham was home to an active network of jazz practitioners and a remarkable system of jazz apprenticeship rooted in the citys segregated schools. Birmingham musicians spread across the country to populate the sidelines of the nations bestoctoBer known bands.

Ferns of Alabama

A much-needed field guide to the more than 120 species of ferns and fern allies occurring naturally in the state, Ferns of Alabama provides yet another window into Alabamas amazing biodiversity.

Ferns of Alabama is a beautiful, full-color guidebook to the great variety of ferns and fern allies that populate Alabama woods, stream banks, prairies, glades, roadsides, and trails. Along with the ecologically similar but genetically unrelated horsetails, clubmosses, and quillworts, ferns are nonflowering vascular plants of ancient lineages that date back to the Devonian era. Although they are now known to be unrelated, all of these groups of plants were once thought to be part of a single division of the plant kingdom called pteridophytes because of their similarities in reproductive biology, and they are generally studied together. These plants occur in great variety and abundance in Alabama because of the temperate climate, the sufficient year-round moisture, and the multitude of available habitats, soils, and microclimates in the state.

The individual species accounts by John W. Short and Daniel D. Spaulding contain a description of the plant and its habitat, range, history, conservation status, and common names.

The Myth of Ephraim Tutt explores the true and previously untold story behind one of the most elaborate literary hoaxes in American history.

Arthur Train was a Harvard-educated and well-respected at torn y. He was also a best-selling author. Trains greatest literary e creation was the character Ephraim Tutt, a public-spirited at ornt ey and champion of justice. Guided by compassion and a strong moral compass, Ephraim Tutt commanded a loyal following among general readers and lawyers alikein fact, Tutts fictitious cases were so well-known that attorneys, judges, and law faculty cited them in courtrooms and legal texts. People read Tutts legal adventures for more than twenty years, all the while believing their beloved protagonist was merely a character and that Trains stories were works of fiction.

But in 1943 a most unusual event occurred: Ephraim Tutt published his own autobiography. The I can see this scrupulously researched book appealing to members of the possibility of Tutts existence as bar, students of literature, historians, and anyone who likes to curl up with an actual human being became a source of con usion, spurring heat f the proverbial sherry and stogie and lose themselves in a tale of the most ed debates.

She also considers Tutts ruse in light of other noted incidents of literary hoaxes, such as those ensuing from the publication of works by Clifford Irving, James Frey, and David Rorvik, among others. As with other outstanding fictitious characters in the literary canon, Ephraim Tutt took on a life of his own. Out of affection for his favorite creation, Arthur Train spent the final years of his life crafting an autobiography that would ensure Tutts lasting influenceand he was spectacularly successful in this endeavor. Tutt, as the many letters written to him attest, gave comfort to his readers as they faced the challenging years of the Great Depression and World War II and renewed their faith in humanity and justice. Although Tutts autobiography bewildered some of his readers, the great majority were glad to have read the life story of this cherished character.

Swim for the Little One First

Noy Holland

Swim for the Little One First is a dazzling new collection of twelve short fictions by the acclaimed fiction writer and prose stylist Noy Holland.

The stories gathered in Swim for the Little One First vary in setting (Ecuador, Montana, Florida, the Berkshires, North Dakota, New Mexico, and California) and style (from the plainspoken to the fustian). In Milk River a young girl whose mother has committed suicide and whose brother has gone off to war is left to tend to her ailing father; in Today is an Early Out a family finds itself caught in a mudslide in the Sierra Nevada; in Merengue a young couple takes up residence in a HUD hotel in Miami Beach, among the elderly living out their last days. In the title story a woman with young children addresses her father, who has come to visit, in the obdurate language of remorse. In Pemmican the author takes a comic approach to the telling of an absurd story about escaped septeMBer pet mice surviving winter in a car. In these and seven other stories, 5.5 x 8.5 120 pages Noy Holland, an author praised by writers and critics ranging from ISBN: 978-1-57366-169-0 $14.95t paper William H.

Interpreting Sacred Ground is a rhetorical analysis of Civil War battlefields and parks, and the ways various commemorative traditionsand their ideologies of race, re on iliation, eman ic c c pation, and masculinitycompete for dominance.

The National Park Service (NPS) is known for its role in the preservation of public sites deemed of to have historic, cultural, and natural significance. In Interpreting Sacred Ground, J. Christian Spielvogel studies the NPSs secondary role as an interpreter or creator of meaning at such sites, specifically Gettysburg National Military Park, Harpers Ferry National Historical Park, and Cold Harbor Visitor Center.

Spielvogel studies in detail the museums, films, publications, tours, signage, and other media at these sites, and he studies and analyzes how they shape the meanings that visitors are invited to construct. Though the NPS began developing interpretive exhibits in the 1990s that highlighted slavery and emancipation Rhetoric, Culture, and Social Critique as central facets to understanding the war, Spielvogel argues John Louis Lucaites, series editor that the NPS in some instances Always the teacher-scholar, Spielvogel expertly and authoritatively shows preserves outmoded narratives of his readers how the National Park Service attempts to influence public white reconciliation and heroic masmemory, and thus historical un er tanding, of the Civil War.

Lacan in Public
Psychoanalysis and the Science of Rhetoric
Christian Lundberg

Lacan in Public argues that Lacans contributions to the theory of rhetoric are substantial and revolutionary and that rhetoric is in fact the central concern of Lacans entire body of work. Scholars typically cite Jacques Lacan as a thinker primarily concerned with issues of desire, affect, politics, and pleasure. Scholars who identify themselves as rhetoricians have rarely cited Lacan as a significant influence in their own field.

South by Southwest
Katherine Anne Porter and the Burden of Texas History
Janis P. Stout

An interdisciplinary study of Katherine Anne Porters troubled relationship to her Texas origins and southern roots, South by Southwest offers a fresh look at this ever-relevant author.

Today, more than thirty years after her death, Katherine Anne Porter remains a fascinating figure. Critics and biographers have portrayed her as a strikingly glamorous woman whose photographs appeared in society magazines. They have emphasized, of course, her writingparticularly the novel Ship of Fools, which was made into an award-winning film, and her collection Pale Horse, Pale Rider, which cemented her role as a significant and original literary modernist. They have highlighted her dramatic, sad, and fragmented personal life. Few, however, have addressed her uneasy relationship to her childhood in rural Texas.

Janis P. Stout argues that throughout Porters life she remained preoccupied with the twin conundrums of how she felt about being a woman and how she felt about her Texas origins. Her construction of herself as a beautiful but unhappy Stout combines depth of knowledge about Porter and interdisciplinary southerner sprung from a planta- thinking about Texas that I daresay is unique.Christine Hait, professor of tion aristocracy of reduced fortunes English at Columbia College (SC), serves on the executive committee of the meant she construed Texas as the Katherine Anne Porter Society Old South.

Steve McCaffery

The Darkness of the Present includes essays that collectively investigate the roles of anomaly and anachronism as they work to unsettle commonplace notions of the contemporary in the field of poetics.

In the eleven essays of The Darkness of the Present, poet and critic Steve McCaffery argues that by approaching the past and the present as unified entities, the contemporary is made historical at the same time as the historical is made contemporary. McCafferys writings work against the urge to classify works by placing them in standard literary periods or disciplinary partitions. Instead, McCaffery offers a variety of insights into unusual and ingenious affiliations between poetic works that may have previously seemed distinctive. He questions the usual associations of originality and precedence. In the process, he repositions many texts within genealogies separate from the ones to which they are traditionally assigned.

The chapters in The Darkness of the Present might seem to present an eclectic faade and can certainly be read independently.

From Place to Site in Postwar Poetics

Winner of the Elizabeth Agee Prize

Fieldworks

Fieldworks offers a historical account of the social, rhetorical, and material attempts to ground art and poetry in the physicality of a site.

Arguing that place-oriented inquiries allowed poets and artists to develop new, experimental models of historiography and ethnography, Lytle Shaw draws out the shifting terms of this practice from World War II to the present through a series of illuminating case studies. Beginning with the alternate national genealogies unearthed by William Carlos Williams in Paterson and Charles Olson in Gloucester, Shaw demonstrates how subsequent poets sought to ground such inquiries in concrete social formationsto in effect live the poetics of place: Gary Snyder in his back-to-the-land familial compound, Kitkitdizze; Amiri Baraka in a black nationalist community in Newark; Robert Creeley and the poets of Bolinas, California, in the capacious now of their poet-run town. Turning to the work of Robert Smithsonwho called one of his essays an appendix to Paterson, and who in turn has exerted a major influence on poets since the 1970sShaw then traces the emergence of site-specific art in relation both to the poetics of place and to the larger linguistic turn in the humanities, considering poets including Clark Coolidge, Bernadette Mayer, and Lisa Robertson.

John McKinley and the Antebellum Supreme Court

John McKinley and the Antebellum Supreme Court presents a portrait of US Supreme Court justice John McKinley (17801852) and provides a penetrating analysis of McKinleys time and place, the exigencies of his circuit work, and the contributions he made to both American legal history and Alabama.

Steven P. Brown rescues from obscurity John McKinley, one of the three Alabama justices, along with John Archibald Campbell and Hugo Black, who have served on the US Supreme Court.

Captives in Blue, a study of Union prisoners in Confederate prisons, is a companion to Roger Pickenpaughs earlier groundbreaking book Captives in Gray: The Civil War Prisons of the Union, rounding out his examination of Civil War prisoner of war facilities.

In June of 1861, only a few weeks after the first shots at Fort Sumter ignited the Civil War, Union prisoners of war began to arrive in Southern prisons. One hundred and fifty years later Civil War prisons and the way prisoners of war were treated remain contentious topics. Partisans of each side continue to vilify the other for POW maltreatment. Roger Pickenpaughs two studies of Civil War prisoners of war facilities complement one another and offer a thoughtful exploration of issues that captives taken from both sides of the Civil War faced.

In Captives in Blue, Pickenpaugh tackles issues such as the ways the Confederate Army contended with the growing prison population, the variations Captives in Blue is an excellent book that more thoroughly details life in in the policies and practices in Confederate-run prisons than anything currently available.

One issue unique to Captives in Blue is the way Confederate prisons and policies dealt with African American Union soldiers. Black soldiers held captive in Confederate prisons faced uncertain fates; many former slaves were returned to their former owners, while others were tortured in the camps. Drawing on prisoner diaries, Pickenpaugh provides compelling first-person accounts of life in prison camps often overlooked by scholars in the field. Roger Pickenpaugh is the author of many books on Civil War history, including Camp Chase and the Evolution of Union Prison Policy and Captives in Gray: The Civil War Prisons of the Union.

Bluejackets in the Blubber Room

Bluejackets in the Blubber Room explores key events in US maritime history from the 1820s to the end of the Civil War through the biography of the sailing ship William Badger.

Taking a biographical approach to his subject, Peter Kurtz describes three phases of the life of the William Badger, a sailing ship with a long and exemplary life on the sea: first as a merchant ship carrying raw materials and goods between New England, the US South, and Europe; second as a whaling ship; and finally as a supply ship providing coal and stores for the North Atlantic Blockading Squadron in Beaufort, North Carolina, during the Civil War.

Using ship logs, sailors acl counts, and other primary sources, Kurtz delves into both the people and the economics of this critical cotton triangle trade.

Following service as a merchant ship, the Badger became a whaling ship, carrying its New Englandbased crew as far as the South Pacific. Kurtz presents a colorful story of life aboard a whaling ship and in the whaling towns ranging from Lynn, Massachusetts, to Cape Leeuwin, Australia. Finally, Kurtz describes the last phase of the Badgers life as a key player as a supply ship in the Union Navys blockade effort. Although not the most dramatic duty a sailor could have, blockade supply nevertheless was critical to the United States prosecution of the Civil War and eventual victory. Kurtz examines the decision-making involved in procuring such ships and their crew, notably refugees and escaped slaves known as contrabands. Peter Kurtz received a bachelors degree in journalism from Ohio University and has written magazine articles pertaining to both music and history.

Free People of Color and the Spanish Legacy in Antebellum Florida

Heavens Soldiers chronicles the history of a community of free people of African descent who lived and thrived, while resisting the constraints of legal bondage, in East Florida in the four decades leading up to the Civil War. Historians have long attributed the relatively flexible system of race relations in preCivil War East Florida to the areas Spanish heritage. While acknowledging the importance of that heritage, this book gives more than the usual emphasis to the role of African American agency in exploiting the limited opportunities that such a heritage permitted.

He has taught at Cheyney University, Miami Dade College, and Florida International University. In Heavens Soldiers, Marotti studies four pillars of black liberty that emerged during Spains rule and continued through the United States acquisition of Florida in 1821: family ties to the white community, manumission, military service, and land ownership. The slaveowning culture of the United States eroded a number of these pillars, though black freedom and agency abided in ways unparalleled anywhere else in the preCivil War United States. Indeed, a strong black martial tradition arguably helped to topple Floridas slave-holding regime, leading up to the start of the Civil War. Marotti surveys black opportunities and liabilities under the Spaniards; successful defenses of black rights in the 1820s as well as chilling statutory assaults on those rights; the black communitys complex involvement in the Patriot War and the Second Seminole War; black migration in the two decades leading up to the US Civil War; and African American efforts to preserve marriage and emancipation customs, and black land ownership.

Connections after Colonialism

Contributing to the historiography of transnational and global transmission of ideas, Connections after Colonialism examines relations between Europe and Latin America during the tumultuous 1820s.

In the Atlantic World, the 1820s was a decade marked by the rupture of colonial relations, the independence of Latin America, and the ever-widening chasm between the Old World and the New. Connections after Colonialism, edited by Matthew Brown and Gabriel Paquette, builds upon recent advances in the history of colonialism and imperialism by studying former colonies and metropoles through the same analytical lens, as part of an attempt to understand the complex connectionspolitical, economic, intellectual, and culturalbetween Europe and Latin America that survived the demise of empire.

Southern Crucifix, Southern Cross examines the complex and often overlooked relationships between Catholics and Protestants in the antebellum South.

In sharp contrast to many long-standing presumptions about mistrust or animosity between these two groups, this study proposes that Catholic and Protestant interactions in the South were characterized more by cooperation than by conflict.

Andrew H. M. Stern argues that Catholics worked to integrate themselves into southern society without compromising their religious beliefs and that many Protestants accepted and supported them. Catholic leaders demonstrated the compatibility of Catholicism with American ideals and institutions, and Protestants recognized Catholics as useful citizens, true Amer cans, and i loyal southerners, in particular citing their support for slavery and their hatred of abolitionism. Mutual assistance between the two groups proved most clear in shared public spaces, with Catholics and Protestants participating in each others institutions and funding each others enterprises. Cath lics o and Protestants worshipped in each others churches, studied in each others schools, and recovered or died in each others hospitals.

Southern Crucifix, Southern Cross is a valuable contribution to the field of southern religious history. No one has previously done a study, on any level, of Catholic-Protestant relations in the South. This book, based on impressive research, has an important story to tell, and Stern does so in an enviably graceful, economical style.Robert Emmett Curran, author of A History of Georgetown University and editor of American Jesuit Spirituality: The Maryland Tradition, 16341900 Andrew H. M. Stern received his PhD in American religious history from Emory University and is an assistant professor of religion at North Carolina Wesleyan College.

In many histories of southern religion, typically thought of as Protestant, Catholicism tends to be absent. Likewise, in studies of American Catholicism, Catholic relationships with Protestants, including southern Protestants, are rarely discussed. Southern Crucifix, Southern Cross is the first book to demonstrate in detail the ways in which many Protestants actively fostered the growth of American Catholicism. Stern complicates the dominant historical view of interreligious animosity and offers an unexpected model of religious pluralism that helped to shape southern culture as we know it today.

Red Eagles Children

Weatherford vs. Weatherford et al.

Edited by J. Anthony Paredes and Judith Knight

Red Eagles Children presents the legal proceedings in an inheritance dispute that serves as an unexpected window on the intersection of two cultural and legal systems: Creek Indian and Euro-American. Case 1299: Weatherford vs. Weatherford et al. appeared in the Chancery Court of Mobile in 1846 when William Red Eagle Weatherfords son by the Indian woman Supalamy sued his half siblings fathered by Weatherford with two other Creek women, Polly Moniac and Mary Stiggins, for a greater share of Weatherfords estate. While the court recognized William Jr. as the son of William Sr., he nevertheless lost his petition for inheritance due to the lack of legal evidence concerning the marriage of his biological mother to William Sr. The case, which went to the Alabama Supreme Court in 1851, provides a record of an attempt to interrelate and, perhaps, manipulate differences in cultures as they played out within the ritualized, arcane world of antebellum Alabama jurisprudence.

By contextualizing classes and their kinship behavior within the overall political economy, Crafting Prehispanic Maya Kinship provides an example of how archaeology can help to explain the formation of disparate classes and kinship patterns within an ancient state-level society.

Bradley E. Ensor provides a new theoretical contribution to Maya ethnographic, ethnohistoric, and archaeological research. Rather than operating solely as a symbolic order unobservable to archaeologists, kinship, according to Ensor, forms concrete social relations that structure daily life and can be reflected in the material remains of a society. Ensor argues that the use of cross-culturally identified and confirmed material indicators of postmarital residence and descent group organization enable archaeologiststhose with the most direct material evidence on prehispanic Maya social organizationto overturn a traditional reliance on competing and problematic ethnohistorical models.

a Using recent data from an arch eological project within the Chontalpa Maya region of Tabasco, Ensor has undertaken a formidable task, merging archaeological and Mexico, Ensor illustrates how archethnological theory to explore more fully the ethnohistory and socio- aeologists can interpret and explain the diversity of kinship behavior and political structure of the prehispanic Mayans.

Archaeology and Roosevelts New Deal for America

Shovel Ready

Shovel Ready provides a comprehensive lens through which to view the New Deal period, a fascinating and prolific time in American archaeology.

In this collection of diverse essays united by a common theme, Bernard K. Means and his contributors deliver a valuable research tool for practicing archaeologists and historians of archaeology, as well as New Deal scholars in general.

To rescue Americans from economic misery and the depths of despair during the Great Depression, President Franklin Delano Roosevelt created several New Deal jobs programs to put people to work. Men and women labored on a variety of jobs, from building roads to improving zoos. Some ordinary citizenswith no prior experiencewere called on to act as archaeologists and excavate sites across the nation, ranging in size from small camps to massive mound complexes, and dating from thousands of years ago to the early Colonial period.

Anthropology and the Politics of Representation examines the inherently problematic nature of representation and description of living people, specifically in ethnography and more generally in anthropological work as a whole. In Anthropology and the Politics of Representation volume editor Gabriela Vargas-Cetina brings together a group of international scholars who, through their fieldwork experiences, reflect on the epistemological, political, and personal implications of their own work.

PoLItICAL SCIENCE / PUbLIC ADMINIStRAtIoN

Symbolic Politics and Policy Change

Hugh T. Miller

Governing Narratives

By highlighting the degree to which meaning making in public policy is more a cultural struggle than a rational and analytical project, Governing Narratives brings public administration back into a political context.

In Governing Narratives, Hugh T. Miller takes a narrative approach in conceptualizing the politics of public policy. In this approach, signs and ideographsthat is, constellations of images, feelings, values, and conceptualizationare woven into policy narratives through the use of story lines. For example, the ideograph acid rain is part of an environmental narrative that links dead trees to industrial air pollution. The struggle for meaning capture is a political struggle, most in evidence during times of change or when status quo practices are questioned. Public policy is often considered to be the end result of empirical studies, quantitative analyses, and objective evaluation. But the em irical norms of science and rationality that have informed pubp lic policy research have also hidden from view those vexing aspects of public policy discourse outside of methodological rigor. Phrases such as three strikes and youre out or flood of immigrants or dont ask, dont tell or crack baby or the death tax have come to play crucial roles in public policy, not because of the reality they are purported to reflect, but because the meanings, emotions, and imagery connoted by these symbolizations resonate in our culture.

Hugh Millers book is a leap forward in public policy analysis. Governing Narratives offers the possibility for students, academics, advocates, experts, and public policy professionals to understand policies that are often represented to be rational common sense but are little more than collective hallucinations. A generation schooled on Hugh Millers work may well alter both the method and content of public policy.Joseph Damrell, author of Search for Identity: Youth, Religion, and Culture Hugh t. Miller is a professor of public administration at Florida Atlantic University and is the author of Postmodern Public Policy and coauthor of the revised edition of Postmodern Public Administration.

Social practices, the very material of social order and cultural stability, are inextricably linked to the policy discourse that accompanies social change. Eventually a winning narrative dominates and becomes institutionalized into practice and implemented via public administration. Policy is symbiotically associated with these winning narratives. Practices might change again, but this inevitably entails renewed political contestation. The competition among symbolizations does not imply that the best narrative wins, only that a narrative has won for the time being. However, unsettling the established narrative is a difficult political task, particularly when the narrative has evolved into habitual institutionalized practice. Governing Narratives convincingly links public policy to the discourse and rhetoric of deliberative politics.

While providing an overview of Germanys evolving relationship with the Central American countries, Schoonover argues that the German thrust into Central America and other peripheral areas was motivated by the same idea that drove British and American imperialism: the belief that expanding into world markets would reduce the domestic, social, and economic conflicts that wracked these industrial giants.American Historical Review Schoonover has written a book rich in material and knowledge. . . .

A vivid, insightful, and moving illustrated graphic memoir by Weaver. . . .

Keeping the Faith is required reading for anyone who seeks to understand the profound contradictions of Alabama government and the profound greatness of its people. . . .

Circling Faith

Southern Women on Spirituality Edited by Wendy Reed and Jennifer Horne

6 x 8 248 pages ISBN: 978-0-8173-1767-6 $29.95t cloth ISBN: 978-0-8173-8608-5 $23.95 ebook

If titles received awards, Circling Faith: Southern Women on Spirituality might take top prize. The book itself forms a literary and philosophical circle composed of smaller circles, capturing in form and content the complexity of Southern womens Christ-haunted wrestles with trust in the unknowable. Jennifer Hornes and Wendy Reeds skilled editing crafts intricate links to form an enclosed sacred space that steps cautiously around itself. The beginning meets not an end but instead a promise of renewal.First Draft
