The woman in blue : a Ruth Galloway mystery / by Griffiths, Elly,author.;
"In the next Ruth Galloway mystery, a vision of the Virgin Mary foreshadows a string of cold-blooded murders, revealing a dark current of religious fanaticism in an old medieval town. Known as England's Nazareth, the medieval town of Little Walsingham is famous for religious apparitions. So when Ruth Galloway's druid friend Cathbad sees a woman in a white dress and a dark blue cloak standing alone in the local cemetery one night, he takes her as a vision of the Virgin Mary. But then a woman wrapped in blue cloth is found dead the next day, and Ruth's old friend Hilary, an Anglican priest, receives a series of hateful, threatening letters. Could these crimes be connected? When one of Hilary's fellow female priests is murdered just before Little Walsingham's annual Good Friday Passion Play, Ruth, Cathbad, and DCI Harry Nelson must team up to find the killer before he strikes again"--

King of the blues : the rise and reign of B.B. King / by De Visé, Daniel,author.;
Includes bibliographical references and index."Riley King, ever to be known as B.B. (1925-2015), was born into deep poverty in Jim Crow Mississippi. Wrenched away from his sharecropper father, B.B. lost his mother at age ten, leaving him more or less alone. Music became his emancipation from exhausting toil in the fields. Inspired by a local minister's guitar and by the records of Blind Lemon Jefferson and T-Bone Walker, and encouraged by his cousin, the established bluesman Bukka White, B.B. taught his guitar to sing in the unique solo style that, along with his relentless work ethic and humanity, became his trademark. In turn, generations of artists claimed him as inspiration, from Jimi Hendrix and Eric Clapton to Carlos Santana and the Edge. King of the Blues presents the vibrant life and times of a trailblazing giant. Witness to dark prejudice and lynching in his youth, B.B. performed incessantly (some 15,000 concerts in ninety countries over nearly sixty years)-in some real way his means of escaping his past. Several of his concerts, including landmark gigs at Bill Graham's Fillmore Auditorium in San Francisco and Chicago's Cook County Jail, endure in legend to this day. His career roller-coasted between adulation and relegation, but he always rose back up. At the same time, his story reveals the many ways record companies took advantage of artists, especially those of color. Daniel de Visé has interviewed almost every surviving member of B.B. King's inner circle-family, band members, retainers, managers, and more-and their voices and memories enrich and enliven the life of this Mississippi blues titan, whom his contemporary Bobby "Blue" Bland simply called "the man.""--

The blue collar CEO : my gutsy journey from rookie contractor to multi-millionaire construction boss / by Rennehan, Mandy,author.;
"Born in Yarmouth, Nova Scotia, Mandy Rennehan began her business career at ten-years-old by catching bait and selling it to local fishermen. She was so good at her job, she was soon out-earning her father, a local lobster fisherman. At the age of seventeen, Rennehan decided to strike out on her own, so she packed a hockey bag full of her belongings and fled to Halifax, where she began cold calling construction companies, volunteering to work for free, so she could learn more about contracting and the trades. Three years later, Rennehan had garnered all the experience she needed to start her own company Freshco, a boutique retail maintenance and construction company. Still in her early twenties, Rennehan's reputation as a knowledgeable and trustworthy contractor, led to her first corporate contract with The Gap. Freshco has since gone on to become a multi-million-dollar company whose clients are some of the top corporations in North America, including Apple, Lululemon, Tiffany's, Sephora, Anthropologie, Nike, and Home Depot, to name but a few. Known as the Blue-Collar CEO for her ability to seamlessly navigate between the white- and blue-collar worlds, and as a tireless advocate for the trades, Rennehan's savvy business skills and innovative thinking, led her to the top of a male-dominated industry before she reached the age of thirty. This book is the "respectfully uncensored" story of how Rennehan succeeded in business through honesty, integrity, and most of all, authenticity - by always remaining true to herself and her vision for success."--
