Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Around the turn of the century, in the hills of northeastern Pennsylvania, a community formed around a sawmill. It was known as Lake Lenape. When the railroads rolled in, people began to migrate to the lake for the summer, and the town began to flourish into a relaxing vacation spot. Unified around their love of the area, families pulled together in their struggle toward survival against nature. Through death, life, love, and heartbreak, these pioneers exhibited the original American spirit of truth, loyalty, and brotherhood. A person's value was not based on race, religion, or relation. The settlers of this wholesome whistle-stop flocked from all walks of life to build a moral common ground, a foundational heritage of accepting responsibility, the happenstance of human life, and the repercussions of our choices. Escape from the modern-day frame of mind, and experience the early days of the melting pot from the perspectives of twelve characters connected by ideals long forgotten. Join author Bronwyn McEnkegry in this historical novel, The Birds of Lake Lenape-a story that weaves through growing up, finding and losing love, discovering one's identity, pangs of guilt, and leaving and coming home. Bronwyn McEnkregy is from Honesdale, Pennsylvania. This is her first novel.

Download or read book Rachel Carson and Her Sisters written by Robert K Musil and published by Rutgers University Press. This book was released on 2014-04-01 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Rachel Carson and Her Sisters, Robert K. Musil redefines the achievements and legacy of environmental pioneer and scientist Rachel Carson, linking her work to a wide network of American women activists and writers and introducing her to a new, contemporary audience.Rachel Carson was the first American to combine two longstanding, but separate strands of American environmentalism—the love of nature and a concern for human health. Widely known for her 1962 best-seller, Silent Spring, Carson is today often perceived as a solitary “great woman,” whose work single-handedly launched a modern environmental movement. But as Musil demonstrates, Carson’s life’s work drew upon and was supported by already existing movements, many led by women, in conservation and public health. On the fiftieth anniversary of her death, this book helps underscore Carson’s enduring environmental legacy and brings to life the achievements of women writers and advocates, such as Ellen Swallow Richards, Dr. Alice Hamilton, Terry Tempest Williams, Sandra Steingraber, Devra Davis, and Theo Colborn, all of whom overcame obstacles to build and lead the modern American environmental movement.
