Download or read book The Dreamt Land written by Mark Arax and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2020-04-07 with total page 578 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A vivid, searching journey into California's capture of water and soil—the epic story of a people's defiance of nature and the wonders, and ruin, it has wrought Mark Arax is from a family of Central Valley farmers, a writer with deep ties to the land who has watched the battles over water intensify even as California lurches from drought to flood and back again. In The Dreamt Land, he travels the state to explore the one-of-a-kind distribution system, built in the 1940s, '50s and '60s, that is straining to keep up with California's relentless growth. The Dreamt Land weaves reportage, history and memoir to confront the "Golden State" myth in riveting fashion. No other chronicler of the West has so deeply delved into the empires of agriculture that drink so much of the water. The nation's biggest farmers—the nut king, grape king and citrus queen—tell their story here for the first time. Arax, the native son, is persistent and tough as he treks from desert to delta, mountain to valley. What he finds is hard earned, awe-inspiring, tragic and revelatory. In the end, his compassion for the land becomes an elegy to the dream that created California and now threatens to undo it.

Download or read book The Age of Gold written by H. W. Brands and published by Anchor. This book was released on 2008-12-10 with total page 594 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the two-time Pulitzer Prize finalist, bestselling historian, and author of Our First Civil War—the epic story of the California Gold Rush, “a fine, robust telling of one of the greatest adventure stories in history" (David McCullough, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of John Adams). The California Gold Rush inspired a new American dream—the “dream of instant wealth, won by audacity and good luck.” The discovery of gold on the American River in 1848 triggered the most astonishing mass movement of peoples since the Crusades. It drew fortune-seekers from the ends of the earth, accelerated America’s imperial expansion, and exacerbated the tensions that exploded in the Civil War. H.W. Brands tells his epic story from multiple perspectives: of adventurers John and Jessie Fremont, entrepreneur Leland Stanford, and the wry observer Samuel Clemens—side by side with prospectors, soldiers, and scoundrels. He imparts a visceral sense of the distances they traveled, the suffering they endured, and the fortunes they made and lost. Impressive in its scholarship and overflowing with life, The Age of Gold is history in the grand traditions of Stephen Ambrose and David McCullough.
Download or read book ZAG written by Marty Neumeier and published by Pearson Education. This book was released on 2006-09-20 with total page 171 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "When everybody zigs, zag," says Marty Neumeier in this fresh view of brand strategy. ZAG follows the ultra-clear "whiteboard overview" style of the author’s first book, THE BRAND GAP, but drills deeper into the question of how brands can harness the power of differentiation. The author argues that in an extremely cluttered marketplace, traditional differentiation is no longer enough—today companies need “radical differentiation” to create lasting value for their shareholders and customers. In an entertaining 3-hour read you’ll learn: - why me-too brands are doomed to fail - how to "read" customer feedback on new products and messages - the 17 steps for designing “difference” into your brand - how to turn your brand’s “onliness” into a “trueline” to drive synergy - the secrets of naming products, services, and companies - the four deadly dangers faced by brand portfolios - how to “stretch” your brand without breaking it - how to succeed at all three stages of the competition cycle From the back cover: In an age of me-too products and instant communications, keeping up with the competition is no longer a winning strategy. Today you have to out-position, out-maneuver, and out-design the competition. The new rule? When everybody zigs, zag. In his first book, THE BRAND GAP, Neumeier showed companies how to bridge the distance between business strategy and design. In ZAG, he illustrates the number-one strategy of high-performance brands—radical differentiation. ZAG is an AIGA Design Press book, published under Peachpit's New Riders imprint in partnership with AIGA. For a quick peek inside ZAG, go to www.zagbook.com.

Download or read book Crimes Offenses written by J. Lea Koretsky and published by . This book was released on 2014-11 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When is an act a criminal corroborant endeavor? When are determinations for death inconclusive as to cause? "Crimes and Offenses" describe in seven novellas little known causes of murder. Impulsivity and deviation as evidenced by departures from usual definitions for crimes involving continental terrorism form motivation, narcotic depredation and psychopathology. In "Siberia" an educational convention hipster congeals funds for building use in order to do business with the West; A husband from Philippines wanted for countless murders stalks his wife to her death for her investigative file on him in the "Eyre"; In "Canal" a soil expert proves a chemical causes a flood; In "Santa Barbara" an extensive composite of agents tracks an Israel crime ring who steal millions through international terrorism; In "No Polo" train crashes in the United States are proven as deliberate sabotage; In "Georgia" condemned buildings on the East Coast hollowed out and stuffed with shredded paper become favored sites for bombings; In "Saba" eight ex-convicts die mutilated after imbibing fuschia; In "Casino" two females pull off a series of heists leaving almost no clues; and In "Oakland" the Morgue brings in three dead minters from a group of Chicago explosions. J. Lea Koretsky, author and prior psychotherapist, resides in Northern California near a complex levee system of rivers and farmland and prisons. A voir dire expert, treatment specialist on child neglect and child endangerment, and billing and rating authority, she has provided expertise to courtrooms, the FBI, forensic and medical investigations, training and on-the-job orientation, and assessed criminal behavior. Judy has run clinics, hospitals, and regional in-home patient care programs and conducted technical findings for the coroner and the state. This is her twelfth book of fiction

Download or read book Earthquakes Mudslides Fires Riots written by Louise Sandhaus and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 415 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: According to the cliche, California is the place where anything goes and everyone does their own thing. Maybe that's because everyone knows that in California there's no terra firma: earthquakes, mudslides, fires, and the occasional civil uprising cause constant upheaval and change. It is also legendary as fertile ground for creativity, freedom, and social consciousness, where the status quo undergoes constant renovation. This book is the first to capture the enormous body of distinctive and visually ecstatic graphic design that emanated from this great state throughout most of the twentieth century. Edited and designed by graphic designer Louise Sandhaus, this raucous gathering of smart, offbeat, groundbreaking graphic design from the Left Coast will amaze readers with its breadth and richness.
