"This essay collection grew out of a conference marking the hundredth anniversary of one of the nation's deadliest labor conflicts - the 1919 Elaine Massacre, during which white mobs ruthlessly slaughtered over two hundred African Americans across Phillips County, Arkansas, in response to a meeting of unionized Black sharecroppers. The essays here demonstrate that the brutality that unfolded in Phillips County was characteristic of the culture of race- and labor-based violence that prevailed in the century after the Civil War"--

"So, Snow White may have had her seven dwarfs. But they don't compare at all to the four dwarfs we're about to discuss in this book. And no their names aren't even near Dopey, Doc, Happy, Sleepy, Sneezy . . . well you get the idea. What we're talking about here is a delightful "pocket pet." A small little furry creature that'll win your heart the moment you take a look at him: The dwarf hamster. A Syrian hamster is about eight inches in length -- a little guy in his own right by any definition. So just how small does a hamster have to be to be thought of as a dwarf. These guys get no bigger than four inches in length. They're actually so small that they can climb right through the spaces between a regular wire hamster cage! Now that's tiny! But the love and delight they'll provide your family is huge. If you've been considering adding a pet to your family, but just don't have the room for a dog or even the space for a cat and accompanying litter box, consider the addition of a dwarf hamster to your family."--Back cover.

It is in that plane where Oliver's father is hiding the rebellion camp, which may not remain hidden for long. Once he gets to Doria, nothing is like what Oliver expects: not what's left of the crippled new plane, not the rebellion against the greater Lorne family, not his father, and not Oliver's newfound capabilities.

This time Oliver may not be so lucky. Welcome to Doria Falls.
