Take It from the Big Mouth, the first full-fledged biography of the multi-talented performer, explores Raye's life and career with candor and insight.

'The sixteenth century was a period of crisis in the Catholic Church. Monastic reorganization was a major issue, and women were at the forefront of charting new directions in convent policy. The story of the Carmelite Reform has been told before, but never from the perspective of the women on the front lines. Nearly all accounts of the movement focus on Teresa de Avila, (1515-1582), and end with her death in 1582. 'Women Religious and Epistolary Exchange in the Carmelite Reform: The Disciples of Teresa de Ávila' carries the story beyond Teresa's death, showing how the next generation of Carmelite nuns struggled into the seventeenth century to continue her mission. It is unique in that it draws primarily from female-authored sources, in particular, the letters of three of Teresa's most dynamic disciples: María de San José, Ana de Jesús and Ana de San Bartolomé."-- 4ème de couverture

"Don Pedrito Jaramillo (1823-1907) and Santa Teresa Urrea (1873-1906) practiced curanderismo, or faith healing, along the U.S.-Mexico border around the turn of the twentieth century. Jaramillo worked on the far eastern Texas-Mexico border in the South Texas Rio Grande Valley, and Santa Teresa worked further west in El Paso, the Arizona-Sonora borderlands, and Southern California. In Borderlands Curanderos, Jennifer Koshatka Seman offers a sort of parallel biography of these two curanderos, examining their trajectories and setting their lives in dialogue with many of the concerns of recent borderlands history"--
