Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Adventures in Persevering, Pioneers of the 20th Century gives insight into the ways people lived and coped with shortages and hardships of the Great Depression. It reads like a novel as it takes a family through many changing situations, the death of the mother when 7 children were from 2 yrs to 18 yrs old, the sacrifices made to hold them together, and later contributions of each. Many historically significant events, places and people are involved: Early pioneers (& Indian influences), the development & benefits of irrigation systems, the discovery of an ancient waterwheel, and benefits that resulted from irrigation. The family pioneered in Eastern Oregon, grubbing out sagebrush to make productive farms "blossom as the rose." A devastating hailstorm occurred, but was overcome. Changes in school systems, and the influence of education on members of the family and communities are involved. Family values, preparation and preservation of foods, and equipment changes are given. Challenges occurred during and because of WWII, including a little known strike on the Oregon Coast. Members of the family participated in it and in the Korean War. Progress of each family member contrasts the changes in modern farming, lumber harvest, and space opportunities. Maps, poetry, anecdotes, and many pictures enhance the book, both B/W and color, which is available in electronic document.

Download or read book Arts and Crafts Pioneers written by Stuart Evans and published by Lund Humphries Publishers Limited. This book was released on 2021-02-15 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Surveying for the first time the Century Guild of Artists (CGA) and its influential periodical, the Century Guild Hobby Horse, this original publication asserts the significance of the CGA in the development of the Arts and Crafts movement and its modernist successors. Founded by the architect Arthur Heygate Mackmurdo and his 18-year-old assistant Herbert Percy Horne (afterwards joined by the artist and poet Selwyn Image), the three men were driven by the ambition to answer John Ruskin's radical call to regenerate art and society. Motivated by the concept of 'the Unity of Art', the CGA embraced a spectrum of arts which included architecture, painting, sculpture, metalwork, textiles and stained glass. It also reached out to music and literature, aiming to educate its public in practical form. Skilfully weaving chronology with the impressive artistic achievements of the collective, the authors also draw out the lively personalities of each of the protagonists and their wider circle. For anyone fascinated by the Arts and Crafts movement, this is essential reading.
