Broke, not broken : Homer Maxey's Texas bank war by Broadus A Spivey( Book )

1 edition published in 2014 in English and held by 101 WorldCat member libraries worldwide

"A Homeric hero in an epic foreclosure battle Homer Maxey was a war hero, multimillionaire, and pillar of the Lubbock, Texas, community. During the post-World War II boom, he filled the West Texas horizon with new apartment complexes, government buildings, hotels, banks, shopping centers, and subdivisions. On the afternoon of February 16, 1966, executives of Citizens National Bank of Lubbock met to launch foreclosure proceedings against Maxey. In a secret sale, more than 35,000 acres of ranch land and other holdings were divided up and sold for pennies on the dollar. By closing time, Maxey was penniless. Maxey sued the bank and every member of the board of directors, including long-time friends and business partners. Almost fifteen years, two jury trials, and nine separate appeals later, the case was settled on September 22, 1980. Broke, Not Broken, the story of this record-breaking, precedent-setting legal case, illuminates a community and a self-styled go-getter who refused to back down, even when his opponents were old friends, well-heeled leaders of the community, a bank backed by powerful Odessa oil men, and the most formidable attorneys in West Texas"

Glenna Goodacre : sculpture( Book )

1 edition published in 2009 in English and held by 22 WorldCat member libraries worldwide

In her own words, sculptor Glenna Goodacre describes the inspiration for, and creation of, her unforgettable bronze sculptures. From the timid beginning of a six-inch study of her daughter Jill, Goodacre went on to sculpt over 40 important commissions. This book features photographs of her most high-profile pieces, but many little known works are included as well. Her most popular monument is the Vietnam Women's Memorial on the National Mall. Her largest public installation is the Irish Memorial at Penn's Landing in Philadelphia. Goodacre's smallest work is the front of the Sacagewea golden U.S. dollar, first minted in 2000. Previously unpublished studies from the design process for the coin are also represented. A photographic survey of the artist's engaging sculptures, along with snapshots and anecdotes, covers the wide scope of her long and colorful career. -- Publisher description
