Book excerpt: "I loved the tumbleweeds that rolled free in the wind for miles, the wild geese, the red-winged blackbirds, the meadowlarks & their song, the flowers that dotted the earth & my faithful horse Queenie. I loved to hear the howling of the coyotes. Their lonely cries told me to be grateful for the security of our little house with my family around me. I loved the free nature of life without bonds or price. If only it could be so." In a book destined to touch many hearts, Sylvia Mackey tells a warm & poignant story of growing up in the Dakotas in the challenging 1920s. With Willa Cather-like simplicity, she paints an extraordinary picture of rural America during the last years of its pioneer farming era & portrays the figures in her book larger than life-honest, simple, courageous people whose long shadows help us measure our own stature today. Her words provide renewal of the inspiration we all take from the simple life we have turned our backs on, yet yearn for deep in our hearts. Sylvia Mackey shares her joys & laughter, the good times & the bad in a book written for all of us who wish to know "the way it was" & to seek in the strengths of the past an affirmation of the future. ECHOES FROM THE PRAIRIE is a book worth cherishing. Don't miss this one.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Spanish-American War marked the emergence of the United States as an imperial power. It was when the United States first landed troops overseas and established governments of occupation in the Philippines, Cuba, and other formerly Spanish colonies. But such actions to extend U.S. sovereignty abroad, argues Katharine Bjork, had a precedent in earlier relations with Native nations at home. In Prairie Imperialists, Bjork traces the arc of American expansion by showing how the Army's conquests of what its soldiers called "Indian Country" generated a repertoire of actions and understandings that structured encounters with the racial others of America's new island territories following the War of 1898. Prairie Imperialists follows the colonial careers of three Army officers from the domestic frontier to overseas posts in Cuba and the Philippines. The men profiled—Hugh Lenox Scott, Robert Lee Bullard, and John J. Pershing—internalized ways of behaving in Indian Country that shaped their approach to later colonial appointments abroad. Scott's ethnographic knowledge and experience with Native Americans were valorized as an asset for colonial service; Bullard and Pershing, who had commanded African American troops, were regarded as particularly suited for roles in the pacification and administration of colonial peoples overseas. After returning to the mainland, these three men played prominent roles in the "Punitive Expedition" President Woodrow Wilson sent across the southern border in 1916, during which Mexico figured as the next iteration of "Indian Country." With rich biographical detail and ambitious historical scope, Prairie Imperialists makes fundamental connections between American colonialism and the racial dimensions of domestic political and social life—during peacetime and while at war. Ultimately, Bjork contends, the concept of "Indian Country" has served as the guiding force of American imperial expansion and nation building for the past two and a half centuries and endures to this day.
Download or read book Wet Prairie written by Shannon Stunden Bower and published by UBC Press. This book was released on 2011-06-29 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Canadian prairies are often envisioned as dry, windswept fields; however, much of southern Manitoba is not arid plain but wet prairie, poorly drained land subject to frequent flooding. Shannon Stunden Bower brings to light the complexities of surface-water management in Manitoba, from early artificial drainage efforts to late-twentieth-century attempts at watershed management. She engages scholarship on the state, liberalism, and bioregionalism in order to probe the connections between human and environmental change in the wet prairie. This account of an overlooked aspect of the region’s environmental history reveals how the biophysical nature of southern Manitoba has been an important factor in the formation of Manitoba society and the provincial state.
