Frank, an Olympic diving medalist, later became one of the most decorated aviators in American history. He flew a record number of missions in a cobbled-together B-17D Flying Fortress called "The Swoose," now housed at the National Museum of the U.S. Air Force. Margo chronicled their early years together in her memoir, My Rival, the Sky, published by Putnam in 1945. The book ends with the young couple happily anticipating the birth of a baby to be named after the indomitable Swoose.Today, Margo, who is approaching her hundredth birthday, lives with Swoosie. As Margo's reality drifts freely between her morning coffee and a 1943 war bond tour, Swoosie struggles to stay ahead of her mother's increasing needs while navigating the pitfalls and pratfalls of the entertainment industry. This precarious moment in time is bittersweet and occasionally overwhelming, but every day is oxygenated with laughter and love. The careful weaving of Swoosie's story with passages from My Rival, the Sky creates a vivid portrait of the invincible mother-daughter bond between the two women.Part Swan, Part Goose is that rare Hollywood memoir that takes us behind the curtain but doesn't live there; its heart is solidly at home. It doesn't pretend to tell all, but what it does tell is deeply resonant for millions caring for aging parents, timely and topical for book clubs and entertaining as hell for readers in general.

Parallel Text: Early American Literature
by D A EickhoffThis collection of American literature classics is especially designed for readers who may not be accustomed to the formal English of America's early writers. The original text for each selection is found on the left-hand page while a modern English version is located on the right. Matching numbers help you keep track as you move back and forth between the two versions. If you are having difficulty with the original text, try reading a passage of the modern version first. Then read the same passage in its original form. After a while, you may find that the original text becomes easier to understand and that you rely less on the modern text. In any case, remember that the modern paraphrase should never be used as a substitute for the original. While you may not plan on becoming a literary scholar, as an educated person, it is important to have some familiarity with early American writers and their ideas. Keep in mind that these authors were not stuffy, dried-up old men and women, they were passionate, powerful users of language who cared deeply about the issues of their day. The fact that you now sit in a classroom in a united, democratic country with liberty and justice for all is largely due to the stirring voices of the writers represented in this book.
