Sinopse

Leianne McNair, mother of four and grandmother of three, managed to handle the cards that were dealt to her with grace and acceptance. Throughout her life, she experienced what it was like to be impoverished and then was lucky enough to encounter the wealth that Oil and Gas Companies can provide and then back before returning back to struggling financially. She never questioned why, and always did her best to fix things, until the year that her mother became gravely ill, and her mother-in-law was diagnosed with stage- four lung cancer—, things that were out of her control and beyond her ability to fix them. All at once, many unfortunate, very stressful incidents happened around the same time and Leianne found herself overwhelmed with grief and to the point that she knew something was terribly wrong. She learned things about grief that she did not know and how it can rear its ugly head in many different ways and the different ways it shows up.
Not only did what was about to happen to her did her journey become extremely overwhelming, but it also affected her children deeply and the definition of family took on a greater meaning. This is a story of a journey, which nobody wants to take but for those who have, may this book help you realize that you are not alone and somewhere out there is the help that you desperately seek.Edit Back Cover Text

    Nancy Shear was only fifteen when she began sneaking into Philadelphia Orchestra concerts through the stage door, and seventeen when she was hired as a member of the orchestra's library staff to help prepare the music; one year later, she became Leopold Stokowski's musical assistant. Being young and female, she was a pioneer in both positions. 
     
     
     
    I Knew a Man Who Knew Brahms takes listeners into the homes, studios, and minds of legendary artists with whom Shear shared close personal relationships, including Stokowski, Mstislav Rostropovich, Eugene Ormandy, and others with the Philadelphia Orchestra. Many of these brilliant and talented artists were also outrageous, egocentric, and tyrannical. Throughout this book, Shear topples more than a few revered musicians from their podiums and their pedestals. 
     
     
     
    A literary welcome mat to the beautiful world of classical music, this memoir is accessible and engaging for all. It brings listeners into rehearsals and concert halls, revealing the choices musicians must consider, and what conductors, players, and composers really do. A heartwarming story about passion, determination, and survival, I Knew a Man Who Knew Brahms explores music at its core. You will never listen to music the same way again, after hearing Nancy Shear's story.

    "Narrative biography of Elizabeth Fry, English Quaker and prison reformer (1780-1856)"-- Exposed to the horrendous living conditions of women prisoners and their children, Elizabeth Fry pledged to improve the lives of society's most desperate people - something no one else dared to do. Telling doubters, "If I don't, who will?" Betsy became one of England's greatest reformers and one of the nineteenth century's most beloved people. Guided by her Quaker values, she led efforts in education and literacy, prison reform, and - together with figures such as William Wilberforce and Thomas Fowell Buxton - the abolition of slavery. Elizabeth Fry insisted on justice and forever changed the way human beings treat one another.
