Download or read book Hard Rock Epic written by Mark Wyman and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2023-04-28 with total page 343 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 This title is part of UC Press's Voices Revived program, which commemorates University of California Press's mission to seek out and cultivate the brightest minds and give them voice, reach, and impact.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is this her dream job…or a nightmare waiting to happen? Desperate for cash, Katherine Wheeler skims Craigslist for a job — any job. When her eye lands on what looks like a too-good-to-be-true office assistant job, she’s too broke to heed her misgivings. Within minutes, she has an interview scheduled. Behind the green door of Pyramid Imports, Pieter Van Rijn’s piercing blue eyes and rugged features nearly stop Katherine in her tracks. Before she knows it, she has $2,000 a week, the keys to a brand-new company car, and a perfect-gentleman boss who oozes sex appeal. But almost before the end of her first day, red flags start flying in all directions, clues that seem completely at odds with the man who treats her like a rare and precious find, whose eyes flash with jealousy when another man shows an interest. As the sexual tension between them ratchets up, questions clamor ever louder in the back of Katherine's mind. Is the man who entices her with brief touches and a single, searing kiss everything he seems to be…or should she run like the wind?
