Book excerpt: "The turmoils and triumphs of the papers and their editors are recorded in compelling detail. Rutted roads, saloons, ne'er-do-wells, and a newspaper--such were the main features of a boom town. Camp editors, many of whom were journeymen printers with little if any editorial experience, used their newspapers to aid them in their self-appointed missions to bring law and order--and new settlers--to their communities. The caustic columns of these frontier moralists were note always received with equanimity by their readers, however. Fights and even duels between editors and subscribers--and particularly between rival newspapermen--were common occurrences, as editors competed against mud, gambling, violence, and each other in their struggle to improve life in the camps"--Book jacket.

Download or read book Hard Rock Epic written by Mark Wyman and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 1989-10-25 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The most comprehensive and interpretive study of the mining industry available to historians. . . . It is a book that will stand the test of time." -W. Turrentine Jackson, Technology and Culture "Mark Wyman's sympathetic account of the Western metal miners includes graphic details of their bitter struggle for unpaid wages, for industrial safety legislation, for corporate liability in the event of mine accidents and for workmen's compensation. . . . Throughout the book one finds the compassion and understanding that mark works in the best tradition of historical scholarship." -Milton Cantor, The Nation "Wyman has looked at miners in the larger context of American industrialization during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. In doing so, he has produced a stimulating, informative account of how this group of workingmen responded to changes in the work place brought on by changes in technology, corporate capitalism, and the shifting labor forces of the day." -James E. Fell, Jr., Pacific Northwest Quarterly "Wyman's compassionate and thoughtful study is an important contribution to the social history of western mining. Hard Rock Epic is also a significant addition to the literature on the process of industrialization. It amply demonstrates that no group in the American West was so deeply affected by the Industrial Revolution as the hard rock miners." -Jeffrey K. Stine, The Midwest Review "Hard Rock Epic is both a descriptive and analytical study of the impact of technology on the life of metalliferous miners of the West. It is thoroughly researched, drawing heavily upon primary sources and the most relevant recent scholarship concerning the hardrock men. The study is judicious and balanced. . . . [and] fits well into the growing body of scholarship on Western metal mining. Historians of labor and the American West will find this volume instructive and definite contribution to their fields of study." -George C. Suggs, Jr., The American Historical Review

Download or read book Strange Empire written by Joseph Kinsey Howard and published by Pickle Partners Publishing. This book was released on 2018-12-01 with total page 812 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is Joseph Kinsey Howard’s last major work. It describes for the first time in detail, the heroic struggle of a primitive people to establish their own empire in the heart of the North American continent. Throughout his lifetime, Joseph Kinsey Howard was absorbed by the fateful dream of these American primitives, the Métis: their fathers, the English, the French, the Scots frontiersmen; their mothers the Native Americans. “The compass of Strange Empire is the history of the resistance put up by people of mixed French and Indian blood and by their cousins, the Plains Indians, to the advance of the Canadian settlement frontier. Mr. Howard’s narrative...is outstanding, not because he has offered much that hitherto was not known about the events, but because of his sensitive delineation of the cultures of the Plainsmen.”—Douglas Kemp, The Beaver “Mr. Howard’s book...is history reflective of his humanity, as it is reflective of his integrity, his scholarship, his depth, his informed respect for language. It will endure as a contribution to historiography. “—A. B. Guthrie, Saturday Review “The author has sacrificed neither fact nor detail in bringing to life events which hitherto have escaped the attention of most historians. Recommended.”—J. E. Brown, Library Journal “A moving and brooding book.”—R. L. Neuberger, New York Times “Vivid and absorbing. This book describes one of the crucial struggles in the long war for the west. It is sound and significant history, written with ardor and skill.”—Walter Havighurst, Chicago Sunday Tribune

Download or read book Sometimes I Did All I Could written by Jerry Worley and published by Mercer University Press. This book was released on 2008 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The authenticity of being human, paradoxical remembrances, and realms of wellness are some of the themes explored in this cutting-edge, down-to-earth repertoire of essays. Teachers share vivid memories that reflect happenings that began in good faith but, from a human perspective, failed to meet expectations. Read, for example, the chapter Heads or Tails?, a lesson that celebrates the traditions of teaching from a generational vantage point. This jewel of a story emphasizes the risk-taking that all good teachers must take in order to make a difference. Take a journey with these seasoned educators as they share their stories of humility, failure, and fear; indeed, remembrances that would soon teach them well as they travel on through a maze of educational lessons.
