Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Studying history has intrinsic value. It can also cultivate durable skills necessary for success in the wide range of careers that are available to history majors. Through clear graphs and informal prose, Careers for History Majors equips readers with data, practical advice, specific strategies, and answers to common questions about the study of history and the value it has for individuals, their workplaces, and their communities. A resource for intellectual exploration, personal inspiration, and planning, it describes the abilities and habits of mind that students develop in college history programs. Readers can see how the skills students learn in a history major line up with the skills employers are looking for. The booklet's contributors include alumni working in a wide range of fields and occupations as well as professional historians. Together, they show how today's college students can prepare themselves to use historical thinking to tackle tomorrow's problems. Current and prospective students will discover an array of useful materials inside, as will their families, career and academic advisers, faculty, program administrators, and staff. General readers can explore statistics, personal stories, and reflections on the many ways that knowledge of the past-as well as the skills it takes to understand and communicate that past-empowers individuals to contribute and thrive in their academic, work, and civic lives. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

"Patti Callahan breathes wondrous fresh life into one of the greatest literary love stories of all time .The result is a deeply moving story about love and loss that is transformative and magical." - Pam Jenoff, author. Profoundly evocative, revealing an intimate view of a woman whose love and story had never been fully told .until now .Becoming Mrs. Lewis is a tour de force and the must-read of the season!" - Mary ALice Monroe, author. "Patti Callahan has written my favorite book of the year.It is both a meditation on marriage and a whopping grand adventure. Touching, tender, and triumphant, this is a love story for the ages." - Ariel Lawhon, author. "Patti Callahan somehow inhabits Davidman, taking her readers inside the writer's hungry mind and heart. We keenly feel Davidman's struggle to become her own person at a time (the 1950s) when women had few options .An astonishing work of biographical fiction." - Lynn Cullen, author. "Callahan keenly demystifies poet Joy Davidman's story and in the telling, shows us the power of a greater love. I was wonderstruck by this novel." - Sarah McCoy, author. "This book is a work of art. Intelligent. Witty and charming. I'm left as spellbound as the first time I met Aslan .with these characters now just as dear." - Kristy Cambron, author. "Pat Callahan took a character on the periphery, one who has historically taken a back seat to her male counterpart, and given her a fierce, passionate voice. For those fans of Lewis curious about the woman who inspired A Grief Observed this book offers a convincing, fascinating glimpse into the private lives of two very remarkable individuals." - New York Journal of Books. "In a most improbable friendship, she found love. In a world where women were silenced, she found her voice. From New Your Times bestselling author Patti Callahan comes an exquisite novel of Joy Davidman, the woman C.S. Lewis called "my whole world." When poet and writer Joy Davidman began writing letters to C.S. Lewis - known as Jack - she was looking for spiritual answers, not love. Love, after all, wasn't holding together her crumbling marriage. Everything about New Yorker Joy seemed illmatched for an Oxford don and the beloved writer of Narnia, yet their minds bonded over their letters. Embarking on the adventure of her life, Joy traveled from America to England and back again, facing heartbreak and poverty, discovering friendship and faith, and against all odds, finding a love that even the threat of death couldn't destroy. In this masterful exploration of one of the greatest love stories of modern times, we meet a brilliant writer, a fiercely independent mother, and a passionate woman who changed the life of this respected author and inspired books that still enchant us and change us. Joy lived at a time when women weren't meant to have a voice - and yet her love for Jack gave them both voices they didn't know they had. At once a fascinating historical novel and a glimpse into a writer's life, Becoming Mrs. Lewis is about all a love story - a love of literature and ideas and a love between a husband and wife that, in the end, was not impossible at all." - from the inner front jacket flap.
