Download or read book The Quarantine Atlas written by Laura Bliss and published by Black Dog & Leventhal. This book was released on 2022-04-19 with total page 187 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Quarantine Atlas is a poignant and deeply human collection of more than 65 homemade maps created by people around the globe that reveal how the coronavirus pandemic has transformed our physical and emotional worlds, in ways both universal and unique. Along with eight original essays, it is a vivid celebration of wayfinding through a crisis that irrevocably altered the way we experience our environment. In April 2020, Bloomberg CityLab journalists Laura Bliss and Jessica Lee Martin asked readers to submit homemade maps of their lives during the coronavirus pandemic. The response was illuminating and inspiring. The 400+ maps and accompanying stories received served as windows into what individuals around the world were experiencing during the crisis and its resonant social consequences. Collectively, these works showed how coronavirus has transformed the places we live, and our relationships to them. In The Quarantine Atlas, Bliss distills these stunning submissions and pairs them with essays by journalists and authors, as well as notes from the original mapmakers. The result is an enduring visual record of this unprecedented moment in human history. It is also a celebration of the act of mapping and the ways maps can help us connect and heal from our shared experience.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Selected by Today as a book "to ease kids’ anxiety about coronavirus.” We all need hope. Humans have an extraordinary capacity to battle through adversity, but only if they have something to cling onto: a belief or hope that maybe, one day, things will be better. This idea sparked The Great Realization. Sharing the truths we may find hard to tell but also celebrating the things—from simple acts of kindness and finding joy in everyday activities, to the creativity within us all—that have brought us together during lockdown, it gives us hope in this time of global crisis. Written for his younger brother and sister in response to the Covid-19 pandemic, Tomos Roberts’s heartfelt poem is as timely as it is timeless. Its message of hope and resilience, of rebirth and renewal, has captured the hearts of children and adults all over the globe—and the glimpse it offers of a fairer, kinder, more sustainable world continues to inspire thousands every day. With Tomos Roberts’s heartfelt poem and beautiful illustrations by award-winning artist Nomoco, The Great Realization is a profound work, at once striking and reassuring, reminding readers young and old that in the face of adversity there are still dreams to be dreamt and kindnesses to be shared and hope. There is still hope. We now call it The Great Realization and, yes, since then there have been many. But that’s the story of how it started . . . and why hindsight’s 2020.

Download or read book Blue Heaven written by Willard Wyman and published by University of Oklahoma Press. This book was released on 2012-09-05 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The year is 1902. A young stock-handler named Fenton Pardee has just survived the train wreck that almost destroyed William F. Cody’s Wild West show. Surveying the train’s smoldering ruins—and what is left of Cody’s company of stunt-riders, trick-shooters, and stage actors—Fenton realizes that turning the West into a circus to thrill the world is no longer thrilling for him. Salvaging a saddle horse and three pack mules, he heads back into the West, seeking the reality of the Montana Rockies. Blue Heaven marks the return of Fenton Pardee, veteran guide and packer, who figured so memorably in High Country, Willard Wyman’s highly acclaimed first novel. Now Wyman moves back in time, filling in the story of the legendary packer. As he begins his westward journey, Fenton is not nearly as sure of where he is going as of what he wants to leave. Crossing the National Divide, he follows Indian trails and game trails, learning the lay of the land as he moves into a wilderness that comforts him as it draws him ever deeper into it. Stumbling into the camp of Tommy Yellowtail, a Flathead Indian as determined to remain in these mountains as Fenton is to embrace them, he finally finds his way. Together the two men discover that showing people what they want to preserve has its own way of keeping it alive. The tale of Fenton and Tommy—and of the women they love, one of whom is tragically taken from them—cuts through the romance of the West to offer an earthier reality, even as twentieth-century expansion and a looming world war threaten to take it all away.

Book excerpt: Schools closed indefinitely....The economy spiraling into recession.....People losing jobs.....The world in a global pandemic. This reality framed the lives of everyone on the planet during the first half of 2020. Ironically, New Year's Eve brought the usual hopes and resolutions of renewal and aspirations for a new decade. However, over the span of several weeks in the United States, there was no rebirth or renewal. There was death, despair and a looming fear of uncertainty associated with a novel virus called COVID-19 Coronavirus. The virus started in the Wuhan Hubei Province of China in the fall of 2019 but quickly spread to all parts of the globe. By March 2020, much of the United States was literally "shutdown" to adhere to "shelter in place" orders at federal, state, and local levels to slow the spread of the virus. By early April, the United States was the epicenter for the virus and deaths were mounting daily. Ayana and Marshall, representing a typical suburban American family, was no different from any other in the United States. Their lives came to a grinding pause. They still had each other and that is the most important thing. What they didn't have were daily school routines, commutes to work, volleyball tournaments, 7-on-7-football practice, or even trips to the mall. Marshall is a professor and research meteorologist at the University of Georgia. Ayana is a former management consultant for a firm in the Washington, D.C. area who manages the household, leads a Girl Scout Troop, and presides over the local high school volleyball booster club. Their teenage daughter plays volleyball, is on the student council, and active in many service organizations. Their preteen son is a typical Fortnite, NBA2K, sports-playing kid. It's a good family with all of the ups and downs of four different personalities under one roof. For several weeks, this family unit sheltered in place. Ayana and Marshall, representing a typical suburban American family, were no different from any other in the United States. Their lives came to a grinding pause during the Coronavirus "Quarantine." Ayana chronicled her thoughts in a daily Facebook post. From this social media diary, the authors captured and expanded upon their experiences and decided to share them others. Within these pages, Ayana and Marshall offer the "good, bad, and ugly" of lockdown while offering lessons learned, interpretations, and opportunities for the reader to engage and self-reflect. How much of your life do you see in their experience? All proceeds, beyond printing costs, to benefit local organizations supporting families and students.

Download or read book The Old Chisholm Trail written by Wayne Ludwig and published by Texas A&M University Press. This book was released on 2018-09-04 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Old Chisholm Trail charts the evolution of the major Texas cattle trails, explores the rise of the Chisholm Trail in legend and lore, and analyzes the role of cattle trail tourism long after the end of the trail driving era itself. The result of years of original and innovative research—often using documents and sources unavailable to previous generations of historians—Wayne Ludwig’s groundbreaking study offers a new and nuanced look at an important but short-lived era in the history of the American West. Controversy over the name and route of the Chisholm Trail has persisted since before the dust had even settled on the old cattle trails. But the popularity of late nineteenth-century Wild West shows, dime novels, and twentieth-century radio, movie, and television western drama propelled the already bygone era of the cattle trail into myth—and a lucrative one at that. Ludwig correlates the rise of automobile tourism with an explosion of interest in the Chisholm Trail. Community leaders were keenly aware of the potential economic impact if tourists were induced to visit their town rather than another, and the Chisholm Trail was often just the hook needed. Numerous “historical” markers were erected on little more than hearsay or boosterish memory, and as a result, the true history of the Chisholm Trail has been overshadowed. The Old Chisholm Trail is the first comprehensive examination of the Chisholm Trail since Wayne Gard’s 1954 classic study, The Chisholm Trail, and makes an important—and modern—contribution to the history of the American West.
