<mask> attended Carl Sandburg Elementary School, Monroe Junior High (now Monroe Middle School), and Wheaton Christian High School (now Wheaton Academy), where one of his best friends was former U.S. House of Representatives member Randy Hultgren. He graduated high school in 1985. He attended Moody Bible Institute for one year and then transferred to Wheaton College where he majored in philosophy and Medieval studies, graduating in 1989.While at Wheaton, he was a teacher's assistant in the philosophy department and research assistant to the philosophy chair, Arthur F. Holmes, one of two professors to whom he dedicated his book, The Complete Francis of Assisi. In a later interview with The Irish Catholic, he reflects on his college interests: "Going back to my college days, I was a medieval history major, so I was very interested in the time period, and I think that was because I always saw it as a period in history that unified Christians of all backgrounds. It is the period of time before all the splits came into the Church so I always found that appealing. The more often one could go back to those figures or those stories and retell them or re-imagine them, I thought,

 about Francis of Assisi have focused on debunking myths that he believes persist from films and novels of the 1960s and 1970s, such as the image of the "hippie" Francis that endures from "Brother Sun, Sister Moon," Franco Zeffirelli's 1972 movie. <mask>'s recent projects include a book of short excerpts of the medieval, Dominican Order mystic, <mask> Eckhart, retold as blank verse, coauthored with <mask>; and a history of the rift between Bernard of Clairvaux and Peter Abelard in the 12th century, titled The Saint vs. the Scholar. He has also recently published a biography of his late friend and colleague, Phyllis Tickle.

He doesn't claim superiority to the people he came from, only an inability to accept all that they taught him."Graham Christian said of The Complete Francis of Assisi, in a Library Journal review, "It is immensely valuable to have in one volume the key writings by and about Francis and his first disciples; essential for libraries and individuals looking to expand their knowledge of this influential saint." In a 2016 interview for The Irish Catholic magazine, <mask> Gargan describes The Enthusiast: "Blending history and biography, <mask>’s book reveals how Francis and Elias rebuilt churches, aided lepers and entertained as ‘God’s troubadours’ to the delight of the ordinary people who had grown tired of a remote and turbulent Church." She goes on to ask <mask> about the background of the book and his personal interest in St. Francis of Assisi. When Saint Francis Saved the Church won second place in the history category in the 2015 Catholic Press Association Awards for excellence. <mask> was also among five reviewers who received a first place award for best review section in America magazine for its "Fall Books 1" entry.

<mask> (born 1948) is an Egyptian-Australian businessman from Adelaide, South Australia. He is most well known as the owner of Shiels Jewellers. He frequently appeared in television advertisements and became famous for his catchphrase "No Hoo-Haa". <mask> was born in Cairo, Egypt. His secondary education took place at the Christian Brothers College in Rose Bay, New South Wales followed by a stint at the London School of Economics. <mask> is of Jewish and French descent. In 1994, he helped to establish the Helpmann Academy, named in honour of famous South Australian Sir Robert Helpmann.The academy is designed to promote the arts in South Australia. He was the first chairman and is still a member of its board. At the 2002 South Australian state election, <mask> ran as a "No Hoo-Haa Party" candidate in the House of Assembly seat of Adelaide, receiving a primary vote of 2.4 percent (492 votes). His "how-to-vote" ticket indicated a first preference for the Liberal Party of Australia. Bensimon is also a donor to the Liberal Party. In 2006, <mask> was rejected twice for membership of the gentlemen's club, The Adelaide Club, which he claimed was due to anti-Semitism. This was denied by the Club president, who stated that it was "offensive" to suggest the club was racist and that it has "a diverse membership".In 2008, when another Egyptian-born Jewish businessman was accepted for membership, Bensimon claimed some credit for the move, saying "I broke the back of a small but influential element within the Adelaide Club." Early life
In 1969, <mask> married and he and his wife Nyra took off on a working holiday to Europe. They travelled on a motorbike for a year and then they decided to come home via Canada. They intended to work for a month in Canada but ended up living there seven years. In 1977, after extensive work experience in marketing studies, the Bensimon's decided to return home to Australia. And after many years in marketing, <mask> decided to turn his hobby for marketing jewellery into a career and decided to open up a jewellery store. <mask> would then go on to

 purchase Shiels Jewellers, a local jewellery store in the city from the recently widowed wife of Jack Shiels.When <mask> took over Shiels, the business had a turnover of around $100,000 per year. Using his knowledge of marketing and sales from his experience selling pharmaceuticals and computer software, <mask> decided to expand Shiels' product range to include more precious jewellery such as gold, silver and diamonds. The gift lines were dropped with the aim to establish a reputation for quality, value and range in the jewellery sector; especially in diamonds. Shiels Jewellers
Shiels Jewellers (known colloquially as Shiels) is an Australian jewellery retailer headquartered in Adelaide, South Australia. It sells bridal and diamond jewellery in a variety of metals, leather items, gemstone jewellery and watches for women, men and children. Shiels Jewellers is renowned for its quality, affordable diamond range and markets itself as the home of the 1 carat diamond. Founded in 1945 by South Australian jeweller Jack Shiels, the business initially had a single store which operated out of Adelaide's Central Market Arcade selling jewellery, giftware and silver-plated merchandise.Since <mask> took over the business in 1977, Shiels Jewellers has grown tremendously. Employing over 450 people, Shiels is a leading online retailer with stores in South Australia, Queensland, New South Wales and Western Australia. During his travels, particularly Montreal and Toronto, Canada, <mask> noticed the success of suburban malls. Hypothesising that this would likely become a trend in Australia at some point, <mask> would open up his first suburban Shiels store at Westfield Marion. Located at Oaklands Park in Adelaide's south, the centre was the Westfield Group’s first suburban shopping mall in South Australia. He followed wherever Westfield went until he had approximately 10 stores in Australia. <mask> decided to keep the name “Shiels” to nurture the trust that already existed between the consumer and the business.He then led Shiels into being the first company to introduce “genuine

One of <mask>'s best-known works is the novella Hyebyeonui gilson (해변의 길손 Wanderer on the Shore), which is loosely based on an ancient Korean hero myth. The book spans decades from Japanese colonial rule through the chaotic post-liberation period to the Korean War, modernization, and finally the Gwangju Uprising in the 1980s. The turmoils of modern Korean history is reflected in the tragic life of the protagonist Hwang Du-pyo. In a storyline reminiscent of Cain and Abel, the novel centers around the conflict between Hwang and his little brother, who is smarter and more loved by their parents. Literary critic <mask>-yong writes: “The tragedy of Hwang Du-pyo’s family originates from his inferiority complex and is correlated to Korean modern history; the tragedy of an individual expands into that of the nation. Another way to understand the novel is to focus on the psychology of its characters.In this kind of reading, one sees how Hwang’s bitter sense of inferiority grows as he

"A fine young man, aged 20 years, residing at Whadden farm, Bruton, and who was on a visit to his sister (Mrs Collins), of this town. It appears that on the day in question he called at the house of Mr Eli Benjafield, Marshmoor farm, where he took dinner, leaving there about three o'clock, with two of Mr. Benjafield's sons (boys), for the purpose of bathing in the river Stour. He separated from the young Benjafields a few yards, undressed himself, and plunged into the water, and almost immediately afterwards he was seen struggling in the river. The boys were frightened, and called a to a man named Robert Turke, who was working within thirty yards of the spot, but he only reached the river in time to see the poor unfortunate man sink; and the water being very deep, the body was not got out for more than an hour afterwards. He is supposed to have been seized with cramp immediately upon entering the water, and was drowned in less than five minutes from the time he reached the river. An inquest was held at the Red Lion Inn, on the 20th inst by W.H.R.Bennett, Esq, deputy coroner, when the above factors were enumerated and the jury returned a verdict of "accidental Death". This account states the death occurred on the 19th. Mary Yeoman <mask> who married Alfred Collins (b. 1827) of Stalbridge and had thirteen children

A number of obituaries were published at the time of his death, in local Gloucester papers and Methodist publications. The following is repeated here verbatim:
"<mask><mask>: was born at Bath, 26 June 1843, and entered the Ministry in 1867. His first appointment was to Faversham, and he laboured in the active ministry until the Conference of 1901.He was an able preacher, a vigorous thinker, and a man of scholarly attainments. His freshness of thought and his power of lucid exposition made his sermons attractive and profitable. His sympathy with the young, his sound judgment, and his varied attainments won for him the confidence and affection of our people. He was cheerful and patient during his painful and prolonged illness, and his faith in his Lord and Saviour was expressed in the words of the Psalm which he had chosen to be read on the day of his burial: "The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? The Lord is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?". Much more might be said of his character and ministry; but it was his earnest request that as little as possible might be written about him. He died at Gloucester, 13 November 1905 in his sixty-third year and in the thirty-eighth of his ministry."References

It further noted that "Embassy Kyiv has a keen understanding of the complicated and rapidly evolving political and economic situation in Ukraine and has good working relations across the political spectrum.

<mask> arrived in Ukraine a month after the abrupt ousting of Ambassador Marie Yovanovitch and the inauguration of the country's new president, Volodymyr Zelensky.But following President Donald Trump's phone call with the new Ukrainian president, <mask> questioned Trump's motivation in a text to Gordon Sondland, the United States Ambassador to the European Union: "Are we now saying that security assistance and WH meeting are conditioned on investigations?" Sondland told him to phone. On October 3, 2019, it was revealed that <mask> had expressed, in text messages, concern that President Trump may have withheld aid to Ukraine unless they, Ukraine, launched two investigations, one into alleged corruption in Ukraine involving former Vice President <mask>, and the other an attempt to deflect from the US intelligence communities' consensus determination that Russia hacked the Democratic National Committee and interfered with the 2016 United States presidential election, by suggesting that the DNC is hiding the hacked server in Ukraine. Explicit throughout <mask>'s testimony was that Trump's goal in withholding the congressionally mandated military aid to Ukraine was to extort Zelensky, the newly inaugurated president of Ukraine, into announcing an investigation into the theory related to <mask> in a primetime American television interview. At the time, and through much of the preceding nascent Democratic Party Presidential Primary Election season, <mask> was the leading candidate, and seemed likely to be the Democratic Party challenger to Trump in the 2020 United States Presidential Election. Additional incentive was provided for Ukraine to do as Trump, Sondland, and Trump's personal attorney, Rudy Giuliani, suggested, by implying that Zelensky would get a state visit to the White House if he complied. According to transcripts released by the House impeachment probe, <mask> on September 9, 2019, at 12:47:11 am texted, "I think it's

 crazy to withhold security assistance for help with a political campaign."Over four hours later, at 5:19:35 am, in his response to <mask>, Sondland responded that the charge is "incorrect." "<mask>, I believe you are incorrect about President Trump's intentions. The President has been crystal clear: no quid pro quo's of any kind. The President is trying to evaluate whether Ukraine is truly going to adopt the transparency and reforms that President Zelensky promised during his campaign." He then suggested <mask> call the Executive Secretary of the United States Department of State about any concerns: "I suggest we stop the back and forth by text If you still have concerns I recommend you give Lisa Kenna or S a call to discuss them directly. Thanks." In his testimony during the impeachment inquiry Sondland noted that it was only out of his deep respect for <mask> that he tried to address <mask>'s concerns.On October 22, 2019, <mask>'s opening statement also explained that Sondland required that Zelensky make public statements announcing an investigation, forcing him to conduct one, before the US released the allocated military aid. <mask> said he feared that Trump would withhold the military aid anyway, handing Moscow everything it wanted from the betrayal, texting Sondland that his "nightmare is that they [the Ukrainians] give the interview and don't get the security assistance.

 Trump to hundreds of millions of dollars in congressionally approved military aid to Ukrainewould be held up unless Ukrainian President Zelensky agreed to announce publicly that "investigations" would be launched including into former VP <mask>, his son <mask>, Ukrainian energy company Burisma, and Ukraine's alleged involvement in the 2016 election.<mask>'s opening statement and testimony was widely viewed as an inflection point in the impeachment inquiry. A few days before his second House testimony in mid-November, <mask> published an op-ed in Kyiv's Novoye Vremya expressing the United States government's commitment to Ukraine: "your success is our success." Post-impeachment commentary
Interviewed by CBS "60 Minutes," <mask> said that no officials at the State Department believed Trump's theory that Ukraine had interfered in the 2016 elections to damage Trump. Yet Giuliani continued to try to gather damaging info on Trump's Democratic opponents. <mask> noted: "Ukraine's security is important to our security and the reason I believe that is that Ukraine is on the front line," noting also that Russia is waging "a hybrid war against Ukraine, but it's not just about Ukraine, they are fighting a hybrid war against Europe and against the United States." <mask> insists that the US has a vested interest in the conflict, which stretches far past the eastern Ukraine battle zone. "Hybrid war is more than tanks and soldiers," <mask> noted."Hybrid war is information war, it's cyber war, it's economic war, it's attacks on elections and as we know they have attacked our elections."

<mask> (January 29, 1830 – November 10, 1907) was a pioneer of Everett, Washington. She was the first female resident of Everett, coming to the area in 1889. <mask> and two of her sons, Wyatt and Bethal, were among the largest landowners of the city. Wyatt and Bethal executed real estate dealings and were later known as the "Fathers of Everett," while <mask> served as their partner and principal advisor. The Ruckers were one of the first two landowners and non-indigenous inhabitants at the site of the future Everett City. They settled on the Port Gardner Peninsula (now central Everett) in 1890, bought a large amount of land, and engaged in platting the town of Port Gardner with other pioneers of the area. Later, the Ruckers joined forces with John D. Rockefeller, Charles L. Colby, and Colgate Hoyt.Plans for the town of Port Gardner were later folded into the City of Everett. The <mask> family owned  of downtown Everett and in 1891 they were the first to put the city's platted lots on the market. In 1905, the family moved into the <mask> Mansion, which would later be surrounded by other large residences that form the modern-day Rucker Hill neighborhood. After Rucker's death, her sons built the Rucker Monument, which later became the family mausoleum in Everett's Evergreen Cemetery. Originally, the mausoleum was adorned with a seated statue of <mask>. Early life and family

Arriving in Everett

<mask> and her two sons Wyatt and <mask> moved from Noble County, Ohio, to Tacoma, Washington in 1888. In 1889, after James J. Hill's announcement that the Great Northern Railway would come over the Cascade Mountains to Puget Sound region, the excitement rose that it would also reach the Port Gardner Peninsula (an area formed by the Snohomish River and Port Gardner Bay, which later became a central part of the City of Everett).That same year, after reading about the opportunities for development of Snohomish County, the Ruckers moved to the peninsula. <mask> also became the first female resident of Everett. At the time of the Ruckers' arrival, the area mainly consisted of forests and was sparsely settled by Coast Salish peoples. There were no marked roads or merchant routes, and the primary way to get provisions to the area was by boat. Developing Everett

By 1890, the family bought  of land on the Port Gardner peninsula (which later became Everett's downtown), becoming one of the first two non-indigenous landowners of the city's lands. They built their house there and started to plat the townsite of Port Gardner in partnership with William G. Swalwell, his brother Wellington, and Frank B. Friday. Their plans for Port Gardner were interrupted by Henry Hewitt Jr., a lumberman and land speculator from Tacoma.He sought the establishment of an industrial city on a much

After securing a funding agreement, he persuaded the Ruckers, Friday, and Swalwell to join the development scheme. They agreed to cooperate and each of them transferred half of their holdings (overall, near  of land) to the East Coast syndicate. Despite giving away a substantial part of their property, the Ruckers still ended up personally owning  of Everett's downtown and platted modern-day Rucker Hill. In 1891, they were the ones to put the first platted lots of Everett on the market and reaped a considerable profit from it. In November 1890, the townsite was renamed Everett.The Everett Land Company was organized, spurring and managing all of the area's rapid development. The <mask> brothers were the company's co-founders and ran it for several years. Everett was incorporated as a city in 1893. It had its own infrastructure and enterprises and grew to 5,000 people. However, the Panic of 1893 and the national economic depression that came afterwards almost destroyed the city's businesses and infrastructure; many citizens fled the area. The city's government was almost bankrupt and additionally John Rockefeller started to withdraw his investments. Surviving the hardships, the city started to recover in 1899, when James J. Hill and his Everett Improvement Company bought the holdings of Rockefeller and the Everett Land Company (more than  of Everett's townsite).The <mask> brothers took an active part in closing the deal between the businessmen.

Wyatt and <mask> have since been recognized as Everett's founding fathers. The Ruckers also donated some of their property to house Everett's early factories and were involved in major city negotiations, such as the construction of a harbor. They owned the Monte Cristo Hotel and the park nearby, were in charge of the Everett and Monte Cristo Railway and of the Everett Terminal Company. They built a mountain resort, the Big Four Inn, had interests in several banking enterprises and commercial organizations, engaged in timber and mining businesses. Later life in Everett

In 1905, <mask>, her two sons, and daughter-in-law moved into the Rucker Mansion on a hill overlooking Port Gardner Bay.The Ruckers attracted other elite families to the area, which was later known as Rucker Hill. Their residence became a setting point for a district of upper class homes that have since been preserved as a designated national historic district. Personal life, family, and death

Rucker was a life member of the Woman's Book Club. Rucker died on November 10, 1907, at the family mansion in Everett. She was outlived by her three sons – Wyatt J., Bethal J., <mask>, and one of her daughters. Historic legacy

 point, <mask>'s large seated statue stood over the doorway, but it was dismantled. The inscription on the door of the mausoleum dedicated to <mask> by her sons read "The Pioneer of Everett, The True Wife, The Perfect Mother, The Soul of Honor." The  tall granite tomb became a family mausoleum for more than 20 family members and has a  chapel area. The mausoleum was appraised at $30,000 ($805,000 in 2021 dollars). In 1994, the film Assassins was filmed at the tomb. Ever since the monument was built, it has attracted attention of vandals. In 2008, the damage done to the tomb and nearby graves was appraised at $12,000 ($15,000).Other familial historic landmarks

There a few other Everett locations that bear the <mask>er Avenue, and the <mask> Mansion, where <mask> spent the last years of her life from 1905 to 1907, is considered "the boldest, biggest mansion" of old Everett buildings and "the most beautiful site in the city." The construction was appraised at $40,000 ($1,000,000 in 2021 dollars). The <mask> family owned the mansion until 1923. In 1974 or 1975, the mansion was placed on the National Register of Historic Places register. The Rucker Hill Historic District is a residential area above Port Gardner Bay in Everett, Washington. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1989.Notes

<mask> (25 June 1935 – 2 November 2002) was an English-born mathematician, physicist and science fiction writer who served as a President of the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America and of the American Astronautical Society. His novel The Web Between the Worlds, featuring the construction of a space elevator, was published almost simultaneously with Arthur C. Clarke's novel on the subject, The Fountains of Paradise, a coincidence that amused them both. Excerpts from both <mask>'s The Web Between the Worlds and Clarke's The Fountains of Paradise have appeared recently in a space elevator anthology Towering Yarns. <mask> served as Chief Scientist of Earth Satellite Corporation, a company that processed remote sensing satellite data. The association gave rise to many technical papers and two popular non-fiction books, Earthwatch and Man on Earth, both collections of false-colour and enhanced images of Earth from space. He won the Nebula and Hugo awards for his novelette "Georgia on My Mind" and the 1992 John W. Campbell Memorial Award for Best Science Fiction Novel for his novel Brother to Dragons. <mask> was Toastmaster at BucConeer, the 1998 World Science Fiction Convention in Baltimore.Before he died, he was writing a column for the Baen Books web site; his last column concerned the discovery of the brain tumour that led to his death.

 married his first wife, Sarah Sanderson, whose death in 1977 became the catalyst for his writing career. They had a son, <mask> ("Kit"), and a daughter, Ann Elizabeth. The family soon after moved to the United States, where <mask> began working in the field of practical physics, a career that would lead him to a consultancy with NASA and the role of chief scientist at the Earth Satellite Corporation in Washington. In response to the traumatic grief from the death of his wife Sarah to cancer (in 1977), <mask> began a second career as a  science fiction author, winning both the prestigious Nebula and Hugo awards and serving as President of the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America (1984–1986). He maintained two successful careers, consulting for various scientific corporations while earning fame for his "Hard SF".During this period he lived in Washington, DC, and met and married Linda Zall, a fellow scientist, and had two daughters, Elizabeth Rose and Victoria Jane. At the time of his death, he was married to writer Nancy Kress, and lived with his children in Silver Spring, Maryland. T. K. F. Weisskopf, Baen June 2004; read online

<mask> (17 August 1888 – 30 December 1917) was a British scholar and poet of the Edwardian era who died on active service as a battalion commander in the Royal Naval Division during the First World War. He is best remembered today for his "Achilles in the Trench", one of the best-known war poems of the First World War. Life
<mask> was born in Aber Artro Hall, near Llanbedr in Merionethshire, Wales. He was the son of Major-General John Heron Maxwell Shaw-Stewart (1831–1908), a military engineer, and Mary Catherine Bedingfeld Shaw-Stewart. While <mask> was still young his parents' marriage broke down and he was largely raised by a nanny, who he habitually referred to as "dear". His appearance was quite striking with a shock of bright ginger hair, pale white freckled skin, and a lengthy nose. His career was one of great academic brilliance, matched by a steely determination to succeed.He came first in the Eton scholarship in 1901, a year after his friend, Ronald Knox, had come first in the same examination. He won the Newcastle Scholarship at Eton in 1905. At Oxford, he won the Craven, the Ireland, and the Hertford Scholarships in Classics as well as taking a double first in Classical Moderations in 1908 and Greats in 1910. Elected to a fellowship of All Souls' College, Oxford, he instead, due to the prospect of considerable financial rewards, committed his career to Barings Bank, where he was appointed one of the youngest managing directors in the bank's history, in 1913. At this time he became devoted to Lady Diana Manners and wrote her many intimate letters full of erotic

 allusions to Greek and Latin literature, though it proved to be a case of unrequited love, as Manners was devoted to Raymond Asquith, and after his death married Duff Cooper. He became a leading member of her "corrupt coterie" known as the Coterie. Another member of the Coterie, Julian Grenfell, said of Shaw-Stewart at this time "animals edge away from him, and the more intelligent the animal, the more they edge away from him", and also "I think there is something rather obscene about him, like the electric eel at the zoo.".Raymond Asquith's pithy appraisal was "not long enough in the bottle". Both found his single-minded preoccupation with achieving wealth and status somewhat distasteful. Shaw-Stewart served in the Royal Naval Volunteer Reserve. When war was declared in 1914, he joined the Royal Naval Division, serving with Rupert Brooke. Shaw-Stewart was present at Brooke's burial on Skyros and commanded the firing party. He was shaken by his prominent role in the young poet's funeral in Greece:

"The brilliant and beguiling youth who had never failed in anything, for whom all life's prizes seemed to wait his taking, had little wish to outlive his friends. He now used all his charm and influence in high places to get into the firing line."While he was at Imbros he seemed to enjoy speaking ancient Greek to the inhabitants of the island; in one of his letters he wrote: "here I am, living in a Greek village and talking the language of Demosthenes to the inhabitants (who are really quite clever at taking my meaning)." Shaw-Stewart was involved in the Gallipoli campaign which

 was his first experience of real combat. His letters home to friends and relations showed an increasing sense of frustration and disillusionment with the war. After the Allied withdrawal from the Dardanelles, he was posted to Salonika in a liaison role with the French. In 1916 the Cross of Chevalier of the French Legion of Honour was conferred upon him "in recognition of valuable services rendered" and, later the same year, he was awarded the Croix de Guerre. During 1917 Shaw-Stewart increasingly felt that he was doing very little of any use in Salonika, and was missing the comradeship of his friends in the Royal Naval Division. After having several requests to be moved to France turned down, he effectively absconded while on leave in England, and rejoined his old battalion in France.Promoted to lieutenant commander and in temporary command of the Hood Battalion, he was killed in France on 30 December 1917 while making his way up a sunken road just behind the fire trenches. Stewart was struck in the mouth by a shell fragment and died almost immediately. He is buried at Metz-en-Couture in the British extension to the communal cemetery. Work

His fame today stems from one of his poems, "Achilles in the Trench", one of the best-known of the war poems of the First World War. It was written while Shaw-Stewart waited to be sent to fight at Gallipoli and was on leave on the island of Imbros, overlooking Hisarlik (the site of the ancient city of Troy), and in the poem, Shaw-Stewart makes numerous references to the Iliad, questioning, "Was it so hard, Achilles,/So very hard to die?"


texts:
 In the stanza beginning, "O hell of ships and cities," he plays on the similarity of "hell" and "Helen," imitating the similar wordplay in Aeschylus' Agamemnon 681–690. In the final stanza he evokes the image of flame-capped Achilles screaming from the Achaean ramparts after the death of Patroclus, and requests that Achilles likewise shout for him during the battle.Legacy
The first biography of Shaw-Stewart, by Ronald Knox, was published in 1920. Elizabeth Vandiver's Stand in the Trench, Achilles includes a detailed discussion of Shaw-Stewart. A new biography by Miles Jebb was published in May 2010. A memorial to him was erected at Balliol College, Oxford, on the west wall of the Chapel passage. He is also named on the war memorial in the antechapel at All Souls College, Oxford and on the Knockbain parish war memorial in the county of Ross and Cromarty, Scotland. See also

<mask> (September 6, 1894–April 14, 1974) was an American writer of adventure stories from Stockton, California. Most of his stories revolved around a young protagonist, Joseph Todhunter ("Tod") Moran, who shipped out on tramp freighters during the interwar years. Life
<mask> was born in Stockton on September 6, 1894. For most of his life he resided in the San Francisco, California, area, except for those times when he shipped out as a member of the crew on a freighter, searching for new material. <mask> decided to become a writer while in the sixth grade, and he wrote his first short story in 1907 during that school year. He attended Stanford University in Stanford, California, interrupted his studies for two years of United States Army service in Europe, then returned to graduate. During two summers, he shipped out as a wiper in the engine room of a cargo ship.<mask>s first published work was a short story that appeared in the June 1921 edition of the childrens magazine The American Boy. He wrote his first novel, The Gypsy Caravan, in the early 1920s, although it was not published until 1930, when it became his fourth published novel. His first published novel was The Tattooed Man, based on two of his voyages and on a walking trip he took along the south coast of France from Marseilles to Italy; it appeared in 1926, and introduced Tod Moran, a young merchant mariner who is the protagonist in most of <mask> Moran mysteries" – progress. Recurring characters in the Tod Moran novels are his friends in the "black gang" (slang for the engine room crew), Toppy, a Cockney deckhand, and Sven, a Swede, as well as Captain Jarvis, master of the

 freighter Araby and a father figure to Tod. By the late 1930s, <mask> Moran books exclusively. In response, he wrote Captain Binnacle and The Long Wharf, leading her to relent and allow him to write more on topics others than the adventures of Tod Moran.However, he continued the Tod Moran series as well; indeed, the last of his 22 published novels, Mystery on Telegraph Hill, was a Tod Moran mystery published in 1961. In addition to writing children's stories, <mask> taught high school English and in the  mid-1940s was the principal at Los Altos Elementary School. He also contributed to journals and reviewed books for The New York Times. <mask> died in San Rafael, California, on April 14, 1974. He is buried at Stockton Rural Cemetery in Stockton. Influence
Philip Roth, Russell Freedman, Michael Dirda and E. L. Doctorow all cited <mask>'s stories as childhood influences. Reflected Dirda: "For a long period also I sought out the work of <mask>, old-fashioned nautical adventures teeming with frequent and arcane allusions to bilge, Lascars, and fo'csles."Freedman, who won the Newbery Medal and valued realism and accuracy in children's writing, called <mask> his "literary hero." <mask> and children's literature
<mask> was strongly critical of the 1930s world of children's literature (in which he worked) which he stated was a "wholly and solely a woman's world—a completely feminine world" subject to "tender-minded feminine control." <mask> believed that this resulted in a paucity of male authors, depressed wages and a lack of realism in children's stories. <mask> expounded these views in an address he delivered in 1939 at an American Library

 Association "pre-conference" moderated by Frances Clarke Sayers. While the audience of 400 female librarians concurred with <mask> that the lack of male authors and of social realism was a problem, his overall misogynistic tone offended many and damaged his case. Nevertheless, <mask>'s speech provoked discussion in the field and led to, among other things, a review of the criteria by which the Newbery Medal winner was selected. <mask> remained interested in the question of realism in children's literature and corresponded with other authors on the topic, including noted librarian Julia Sauer.In a reversal, a modern critic took <mask> to task for creating "traditional" male heroes who were "brave, clever and independent." Awards

<mask> received two literary awards during his life. In 1944, he received the California Commonwealth Book Award for his novel Thunderbolt House, published that year, and in 1946 he was awarded the Children's Book Award from the Children's Book Committee at Bank Street College of Education "for a book that deals realistically with problems in the childs world" for his novel Heart of Danger of that year.
