Download or read book North Woods River written by Eileen M. McMahon and published by Univ of Wisconsin Press. This book was released on 2009-10-20 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The St. Croix River, the free-flowing boundary between Wisconsin and Minnesota, is a federally protected National Scenic Riverway. The area’s first recorded human inhabitants were the Dakota Indians, whose lands were transformed by fur trade empires and the loggers who called it the “river of pine.” A patchwork of farms, cultivated by immigrants from many countries, followed the cutover forests. Today, the St. Croix River Valley is a tourist haven in the land of sky-blue waters and a peaceful escape for residents of the bustling Minneapolis–St. Paul metropolitan region. North Woods River is a thoughtful biography of the river over the course of more than three hundred years. Eileen McMahon and Theodore Karamanski track the river’s social and environmental transformation as newcomers changed the river basin and, in turn, were changed by it. The history of the St. Croix revealed here offers larger lessons about the future management of beautiful and fragile wild waters.

Excerpt from book: CHAPTER II VAULET OF THE ST. CROIX THE St. Croix river ? the natural valley of which Mr. Boardman did so much to develop, in which his great business abilities were so long employed for its advantage and the fauna of which he made so well known to the scientific world ? forms the boundary between the province of New Brunswick, Dominion of Canada and the United States, from a point just south of latitude 46 degrees north to the bay of Fundy into which its waters discharge. At Quoddy Head the United States reaches its farthest eastern limit and the St. Croix system is the most southeastern river system in the State of Maine. The area drained by the river St. Croix and its affluent lake systems is 70 miles long by 50 miles broad, having a total surface of 1175 square miles, 800 of which are in the State of Maine and 375 are in the province of New Brunswick. The St. Croix is formed by two branches, the lower of which receives the waters of the Grand lakes and the upper of which receives those of the Schoodic lakes ? the connecting rivers being wide and voluminous. In the St. Croix system are 183 streams and 61 lakes represented uponthe state map ? eleven of the lakes and ponds being located in New Brunswick. The Indian name Schoodic, which denotes in the native tongue low, swampy ground is applied to the St. Croix in general, including its chains of lakes and streams. The entire system of rivers, streams and lakes forming the St. Croix is, in fact, an attenuated combination of the lakes; while by some the St. Croix has been termed a lake in motion. For about ten miles above tide water at Calais the river has an average width of 500 feet; its annual discharge is estimated at 44,800,000,000 cubic feet; the average fall to tide water is about 300 feet, or 6.5 to the mile and...
Download or read book How to Escape from a Leper Colony written by Tiphanie Yanique and published by Graywolf Press. This book was released on 2012-08-07 with total page 207 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An enthralling debut collection from a singular Caribbean voice For a leper, many things are impossible, and many other things are easily done. Babalao Chuck said he could fly to the other side of the island and peek at the nuns bathing. And when a man with no hands claims that he can fly, you listen. The inhabitants of an island walk into the sea. A man passes a jail cell's window, shouldering a wooden cross. And in the international shop of coffins, a story repeats itself, pointing toward an inevitable tragedy. If the facts of these stories are sometimes fantastical, the situations they describe are complex and all too real. Lyrical, lush, and haunting, the prose shimmers in this nuanced debut, set mostly in the U.S. Virgin Islands. Part oral history, part postcolonial narrative, How to Escape from a Leper Colony is ultimately a loving portrait of a wholly unique place. Like Gabriel García Márquez, Edwidge Danticat, and Maryse Condé before her, Tiphanie Yanique has crafted a book that is heartbreaking, hilarious, magical, and mesmerizing. An unforgettable collection.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Robert Amandus Johnson chronicled this period of the history of Saint Croix from 1770-1776 and the remarkable relationship of the Island to the emerging American Nation. It relates, what is believed to be, the first foreign recognition of the American "Stars and Stripes." This occurred in Christiansted, St Croix in June 1776, prior to Congressional approval of the Declaration of Independence. This early "Stars and Stripes" was being flown from the American Brig "Nancy." The American Revolutionary Financier, Robert Morris had chartered the Brig "Nancy," on behalf of Congress, to acquire critically needed gunpowder in the Danish West Indies. Mr. Johnson resides in St Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands, his adopted home since first arriving as an Ensign in the U.S Navy in 1959.
