Download or read book A Hobo s Son and an Orphan Girl written by Bob Bristow and published by Dorrance Publishing. This book was released on 2024-06-06 with total page 759 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book started out as a set of adventure stories that have been published locally in several outdoor newsletters. These stories were so well received that the adventures in other parts of the life of the author and his family were added. A love story naturally evolved because that was what kept them going and led them from the wilderness where they grew up to the big cities working in politics, aerospace, and other advanced technologies. They combined this “city work” with many kinds of adventures, mostly adventures in wild and unexplored mountains. The love became obvious as Bob struggled for over 50 years to satisfy a promise he made to a 13-year-old girl in grade school: “Someday I will build you a castle on a mountain!” The book is interesting because it describes a lifetime of outdoor adventures and the effort of two kids to stay alive and progress up the social ladder. The relevant message is that two very poor kids at the bottom of the social ladder can not only survive but rise to the top. The story is unique because the adventures have been experienced by no one else. From Bob falling off an 80-foot cliff, to Luci battling a new form of cancer that was supposed to take her life. Readers should take away a good feeling reading about successfully living through many adventures in the mountains and in social life. About the Author Bob Bristow has a BS in Mechanical Engineering, an MS in aeronautical Engineering, and all PhD coursework completed in Aerospace Engineering. He worked for Boeing for over 60 years where he built and ran his own research lab. He was an elder in his church and was involved in many professional organizations. Bob enjoys skiing, scuba diving, mountain climbing, fishing, and hunting. He is most passionate about prospecting and mining.

Little Secrets is a book about Nancy and Sally, the stories from their youth, and the trials they have faced through the years. As long as they lived, they would keep each other’s secrets. Now, the secrets come to light: secrets of adultery, abuse, alcoholism, bigotry, and survival. A book as funny as it is heart-wrenching, Little Secrets offers a glimpse into the bonds that women share, reminding us that friendship and strength can survive under the toughest circumstances, even after death.

Download or read book Las Arenas written by Sherwood Stockwell and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2010-05-21 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: They are bound together by geography but opposed to each other in every way. Their battles are threefold: within each community, between each other and together versus outsiders and the onslaughts of nature. Even a fictional community has to have some roots, so the towns have been located where there are no towns at a mythical beach somewhere between the cities of Half Moon Bay and Santa Cruz, probably the one place where geology and geography would never let it happen. The people of Rockport and Willow Glen and their problems are unique to an imagined place, but not atypical. The World Series Earthquake is a fitting prelude to battles witnessed by attorney Angela Adams and architect Vince Correlli from within the seaside community of Las Arenas. The two learn to live with the sometimes odd and quirky actions of their neighbors. They can?t escape the fact, however, that Las Arenas is placed by nature between the towns of Rockport and Willow Glen that have a century-old history of conflicts. The fictional towns might exist anywhere along the California coast, but their problems are typical of those in similar communities that grew during the real-estate boom years of the Golden State.

Download or read book Piano Tide written by Kathleen Dean Moore and published by Catapult. This book was released on 2017-12-12 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Do we belong to the Earth or does the Earth belong to us? The question raised by Chief Seathl almost two centuries ago continues to be the defining quandary of the wet, wild rainforests along the shores of the Pacific Northwest. It seethes below the tides of the fictional town of Good River Harbor, a little village pressed against the mountains—homeland to bears, whales, and a few weather–worn families. In Piano Tide, the debut novel by award–winning naturalist, philosopher, activist and author Kathleen Dean Moore, we are introduced to town father Axel Hagerman, who has made a killing in this remote Alaskan harbor by selling off the spruce, the cedar, the herring and halibut. But when he decides to export the water from a salmon stream, he runs head–long into young Nora Montgomery, just arrived on the ferry with her piano and her dog. Nora has burned her bridges in the lower 48, and she aims to disappear into this new homeland, with her piano as her anchor. But when Axel's next business proposition, a bear pit, turns lethal, Nora has to act. The clash, when it comes, is a spectacular and transformative act of resistance.

Book excerpt: The best known, most often cited history of anthropological theory is finally available in paperback! First published in 1968, Harris's book has been cited in over 1,000 works and is one of the key documents explaining cultural materialism, the theory associated with Harris's work. This updated edition includes the complete 1968 text plus a new introduction by the author, which discusses the impact of the book and highlights some of the major trends in anthropological theory since its original publication. RAT, as it is affectionately known to three decades of graduate students, comprehensively traces the history of anthropology and anthropological theory, culminating in a strong argument for the use of a scientific, behaviorally-based, ethic approach to the understanding of human culture known as cultural materialism

Download or read book Marine Products of Commerce written by Donald Kiteley Tressler and published by . This book was released on 1923 with total page 776 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from preface: This book is designed for both the scientific and the practical man. It attempts to give the chemist and biologist a general survey of the fishery industries, pointing out their relative importance, indicating their location, and describing the methods in common use. There has been no attempt to consider all the methods of the fisheries; if this were attempted, a lengthy treatise such as G. Brown Goode's "Fisheries and fishery industries of the United States" would result. By reading this book, the practical man may learn how chemistry and biology are correlated with the fishery industries. Simple language is used throughout. But few technical terms are included and care is taken to define those terms which may not be familiar to the layman. The author hopes that this book may fill the long felt need of the student of industrial biology, for a concise treatise on the fishery industries. These industries have been considered from a scientific viewpoint and, while it is impossible to go into great detail in describing the applications of chemistry, physics, and biology in the preparation and preservation of marine products, the applications are outlined and references to the original literature are given which should serve as a guide for study. In all cases, special consideration is given to American methods and processes. Obviously, it is impossible to treat of the technology of the marine products industries in all parts of the world; however, especially important foreign industries are described. A special effort is made to describe carefully the manufacture and refining of solar sea salt. It is hoped that the information presented will be of value not only to the student of industrial chemistry and the marine industries but also to the salt manufacturer. It is hoped that the book may call attention to the great need for chemical and biological research to solve the numerous problems of the fishery industries. Several of these problems are brought to the attention of the reader in the last chapter.

Book excerpt: CLICK HERE to download a sample recipe from Pacific Feast * Features more than 60 recipes from some of the Pacific Coast's best chefs, including David Tanis, Maria Hines, Dustin Clark, Kirsten Dixon, and Tom Douglas * Accessible and inspiring, Pacific Feast will appeal to home cooks and nature lovers alike * Conveys a strong conservation and sustainability message throughout the recipes and stories Once thought to be the stuff of back-to-the-landers, foraging has become a gourmet pastime, and there are a growing number of wild-food classes in which experts teach hungry folks how to spot the "food at our feet." Especially fortunate are those of us who live along the Pacific Coast -- from Southern California to Puget Sound to Anchorage -- where the climate provides many a delicacy in our wild (and not so wild) spaces. Pacific Feast shares expert advice on how to identify the good eats, harvest responsibly, and create delicious meals with your finds. Author Jennifer Hahn provides detailed field notes on more than 40 species, including where to find them, which parts are edible, and their best culinary uses. In addition to the delectable recipes from well-known coastal chefs, readers will also appreciate Hahn's intimate stories of reveling in nature's bounty and Mac Smith's lush identification photographs. With more than 25 years of wilderness travel under her boots and kayak hull--including thru-hiking the Pacific Crest Trail from northern California to Canada and kayaking solo from Ketchikan, Alaska to Washington--writer Jennifer Hahn relies on wild harvesting to keep her pack and kayak light. Jennifer's favorite foraged lunch is sea urchin, nori seaweed, and "goose tongue" leaves. She lives in Bellingham, Washington with her potter husband, Chris Moench.
