Culture Several years ago a religious type diet book came out that had a special prayer close to the front of the book...I believe it was a prayer putting everything into God's hands. The author states she SINGS her own prayers of thanksgiving to God as she goes throughout her day. And I THINK the inside of the book cover was either blue, blue-green, or green (?).
I may be getting it mixed up with another diet book, but I believe somewhere in the book the woman author speaks of how she surprised her son (or husband) who had been away for a long time (either in military or college? ) when he came home to find she had lost a great deal of weight. That's not much help, I know, but it's all I've got!
The book is important to me because the author's words made a real connection with me.
The people known as the Pennsylvania Dutch The people known as the Pennsylvania Dutch, often falsely depicted in travel advertisements by the tourist industry with images of a little Holland Dutch girl with wooden shoes, are not Dutch, but are of German and German speaking heritage, They are the descendants of the early german speaking settlers of the inland counties of Pennsylvania who arrived in Pennsylvania prior to the Revolutionary War and the War of 1812. Large scale immigration to Pennsylvania and the other rebelling colonies was for the most part stopped by the British just prior to the start of the Revolutionary War and was much restricted after that war ended by continuing British interference in the new country's trade and affairs until after the War of 1812. By far, most were German.
But if not specifically German, they were more likely to be German speaking Swiss or German speaking refugee French Huguenots, rather than Holland Dutch. These early German speaking settlers of Pennsylvania formed a culturally unique people and are more correctly described as the Pennsylvania Germans. Sources: http://www.kerchner.com/padutch.htm .

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
