Download or read book Christmas in America written by Peter Guttman and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2023-11-21 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A New Edition of Peter Guttman's Dazzling Photographic Treasury of Holiday Lights and Celebrations Nothing reminds us of the good things in life—family, friendship, food, and good cheer—more than Christmas. With stunning images and illuminating text, award-winning photographer Peter Guttman offers a dazzling overview of the wintry landscapes, traditions, ceremonies, spectacles, and pastimes of the holiday season throughout the United States. Delve into the landscapes and streetscapes of Christmas in America and you can almost smell the frosted scent of snow-covered pines, of chestnuts roasting, and of family meals being shared. In the East, we find the spirit of the season in a cozy Vermont country inn, or an “army of elves” in a Philadelphia parade, or the sweeping grace of the sugar plum fairies in the Nutcracker Suite. In the heartland, we dogsled through a crystal wilderness in Minnesota and discover blazing bonfires in Louisiana. The snowy cliffs of the Grand Canyon, steam trains weaving high amongst the Rockies, the textured pueblos of New Mexico, the almost heavenly night sky of Utah’s Monument Valley, and the indescribable glazed beauty of Yosemite reflect the West. Like the holiday season itself, Christmas in America is a treasure.

Download or read book The Wilderness Nativity written by Glen Bowman and published by . This book was released on 2004-08 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What does Meredosia, a town on the Illinois River, and a beatified Mohawk woman have in common? You can discover the answer in The Wilderness Nativity. Based upon inspiring yet obscure historical facts, it is the story of courageous men and women in early American history. Set in Meredosia, a small Illinois town whose name is derived from the French Mare D'Osia, the story links well-known historical figures of America's past with a centuries old tradition. Real men like Father Marquette, Louis Joliet, La Salle, and his lieutenant Henri Tonti contribute to the roots of the tradition. Real women like Kateri Tekawitha, the "Lily of the Mohawks" and Catholic patroness of ecology, provide inspiration that survives even today in the story. It is an enduring love story between an Iroquois maiden and a Scottish mercenary against the backdrop of the Great Iroquois Raid of 1676. Self-sacrificing Jesuit Priests risk death and mutilation to minister to the natives of interior North America. The story tells of a noble tradition that continues to be practiced today for all the wrong reasons. Tradition can be a powerful motivator as well as an exacting taskmaster. The tradition of The Wilderness Nativity commemorates an event that saved many from certain death by famine and starvation. It originated as a model of goodness and mercy to the local inhabitants. Over the years, the message of the tradition has become obscured and perverted. When this modern passion play loses its focus, something must be done to revitalize it. Centuries earlier, a miracle had been necessary to initiate the tradition. It will require a modern-day miracle to remind everyone that mercy and charity will continue to overcome the suffering in the world. The discovery of a talisman in an Illinois meadow intertwines and unites events through the years to eventually fulfill a destiny.

Download or read book The Wilderness First Aid Handbook written by Grant S. Lipman and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2013-08-13 with total page 119 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Wilderness First Aid Handbook is a handy, quick-reference guide easily accessible with basic wilderness first aid knowledge, but it does not require advanced degrees or experience with medicine and prehospital care. Recognizing that certain knowledge and procedures are outside the scope of a layperson’s training, Dr. Grant Lipman limits the use of technical terms and advanced techniques that may be unfamiliar to some readers or beyond their comfort zone. This system-based, easy-to-follow guide assists the first aid provider when encountering most wilderness emergencies, from cold and heat concerns and blister treatments to high altitude illness and lightning injury prevention—and much more. Typically the most challenging decision in the wilderness environment is when to evacuate a sick or potentially sick person, and as such, each section has detailed decision-making steps to inform you of when to be concerned and when to get out. This guidance is based upon the recent evidence-based consensus statement published by the Wilderness Medical Society on the scope of practice of wilderness first aid. Filled with original, full-color artwork illustrating the techniques and procedures described and with internal-spiral binding and waterproof pages handy for travel into extreme environments, The Wilderness First Aid Handbook is a must-have for every back pocket or backpack.
