Book excerpt: Excerpt from Appalachia, Vol. 11: The Journal of the Appalachian Mountain Club, 1905-1908 Around the reservoirs of many glaciers we find steep clifis from which rocks are continually falling. They are covered up by the snow, follow their course along the lines of flow through the body of the ice, and are brought to the surface near the end of the glacier. It is an interesting observation that glaciers whose reservoirs are surrounded by rapidly weathering clifis have their lower ends thickly covered with moraine material; whereas glaciers originating on high plateaus have perfectly clean ends, a peculiar difference entirely explained by the dis position of the lines of flow. There is no necessity, therefore, to ascribe this material to ground moraines. The accumulation of snow in the reservoir increases from the névé line for some distance _up, and as the annual deposits accumulate they flow downward and forward; each tributary or, indeed, each recess in the surrounding mountains forms its own layers of strata, and as these flow into the general trough, they are compressed and folded so that their outcrops on the surface of the ice are usually long loops pointing down stream. It frequently occurs that this folding does not show itself near the névé line, but appears further down the dissipator, at the lower ends of the lines of flow, whose origin lies far up in the reservoir where the folding begins; so that we find reproduced in the dissipator certain characteristics of the upper reservoir. Glaciers which have no well differentiated tributaries may, nevertheless, have their dissipators divided longitudinally into different systems of loops, which represent the outcrops of the folded strata from the recesses above; and the lines separating these parts, hardly distinguishable in the upper part of the dis sipator, become stronger and stronger as they approach the end of the glacier. If this dividing line really separates two tribu taries which have united in the reservoir, it will probably develop into an internal moraine. This is beautifully illustrated in the great Aletsch glacier (plate IL). After the sun has set, the whole surface of this glacier, when seen from the summit of the Aggischhorn, shows most beautiful systems of loops resem bling the line of a fine engraving. These systems are separated by longitudinal lines, faint at first, but growing more and more marked, and one of them becomes the great median moraine, so prominently seen at the end of the glacier.

Download or read book Over the Misty Mountains Spirit of Appalachia Book 1 written by Gilbert Morris and published by Baker Books. This book was released on 1997-02-01 with total page 395 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A New Historical Fiction Series From an Exciting New Team! When Aaron McCarver met Gilbert Morris at the CBA convention in 1991, he never dreamed that those initial discussions would ultimately lead to his conceiving a historical fiction series that he would write with Gilbert Morris. THE SPRIT OF APPALACHIA chronicles the story of the settlers of America's first frontier--the lands over the Appalachian mountains--and of faith that carried them through the harshest of times. Over the Misty Mountains is the story of Hawk Spencer, a man whose bitterness over the loss of his wife drives him from his home in Virginia and causes him to seek the frontier to escape his pain. Becoming a skilled trapper, Hawk is persuaded to lead a wagon train over the mountains before the snows come, but the trail is marked by sabotage from an old enemy of Hawk's. When renegade Indians attack the wagon train and leave Elizabeth MacNeal and her children without a husband, how will Hawk respond to Elizabeth's resilient faith in God? And how will the MacNeals survive the frontier settlement.

Download or read book The Appalachians written by Mari-Lynn Evans and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a time when the world has become a global village and America a global nation, there is one place where things are largely as they used to be. Protected by mountains, largely ignored by modern industry and developers, Appalachia is America’s first and last frontier. Encom-passing more than 195,000 square miles in thirteen states, it possesses the least understood and most underappreciated culture in the United States. A beautifully produced companion volume to the PBS documentary narrated by Naomi Judd, The Appalachians fills the void in information about the region, offering a rich portrait of its history and its legacy in music, literature, and film. The text includes essays by some of Appalachia’s most respected scholars and journalists; excerpts from never-before-published diaries and journals; firsthand recollections from native Appalachians including Loretta Lynn, Ricky Skaggs, and Ralph Stanley; indigenous song lyrics and poetry; and oral histories from common folk whose roots run strong and deep. The book also includes more than one hundred illustrations, both archival and newly created. Here is a wondrous book celebrating a unique and invaluable cultural heritage.
