Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Mineral Wealth of Alabama and Birmingham Illustrated Thro' the night there arose a mighty voice Of manhood calling to the strength of men, And morning dawned upon an old, red field Made glorious by a City's sudden birth. Strange Providence of God that watches o'er The destinies of nations, and ope'd His ears To cries of hunger out of ruined homes, And gave such stores where only bread was asked! And set the Iron Mountain in the midst, And, sheathed with coal, the breast of that grand State, Whose wan and shrunken form, and chilly limbs Needed new blood within each weakened vein, Strong, red and healthful for a blessed old age, And fire to glow again upon her happy hearth. The City that was built by men, because It was the answer of the Father's love. That never turns away from cry of human need! The little babe, that lay within the arms Of that poor, weary, weakened mother-state, Hath grown to such imperial stature now Its arms uphold her in her olden pride, And she forgets the past, when hope had died, Its wealth hath robed her in fresh grace anew - Its power restored the sceptre she had lost.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mineral Belt of Alabama: The Favored Section of the South; For Agricultural, Mineral and Timber Lands The Alabama State Land Company, owner of the lands of the Alabama and Chattanooga Railroad - now known as the Alabama Great Southern Railroad - has for sale in North Alabama over six hundred thousand acres of agricultural, timber and mineral lands. These lands are situated convenient to the stations and on each side of the Alabama Great Southern Railroad, a division of the Queen and Crescent system, which runs from Cincinnati to New Orleans and from Cincinnati to Shreveport, via Meridian, Mississippi. The Alabama Great Southern Railroad traverses the entire State of Alabama from the northeast to the southwest corner, and follows the centre of the great mineral belt of Alabama for its entire length. This mineral belt is about fifty miles wide, and extends from the northeast corner of the State toward the southwest, for about two hundred miles. It is within this great belt that all the coal, iron and rock mines, furnaces and manufactories of all kinds are located, and where the future wealth and natural increase in the value of real estate will be found. It is here where the great towns of the State will be situated, as they are now springing up within this territory all along the line of the Alabama Great Southern Railroad. Here, too, employment of all kinds can be found, and every pound of produce raised from the land can be marketed at a high price at the nearest station. Good farming lands can be purchased fr the Company within this region for from $3.50 to $5.00 per acre - one-fourth cash, the balance in one, two and three years.

Download or read book E40 written by Jack Williams and published by University of Virginia Press. This book was released on 2006 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Appalachian mountain chain once contained the highest and most dramatic mountains on earth. Worn down over time, these mountains still hold some of the most diverse climactic zones and singular geological formations in existence. In East 40 Degrees: An Interpretive Atlas, Jack Williams examines a succession of beautiful but little-known towns along this cordillera (a term descended from the Latin chorda, meaning "braided rope"), revealing in their layers of history and geography how both their diverse cultural and social circumstances and their geological history were instrumental in forming each town's distinctive character.Referring to the spatial orientation of the Appalachian mountain chain, the "east 40 degrees" of the title runs from Alabama through fifteen states to the coast of Maine. Each town Williams examines sits within the folds of these mountains or beside a river nourished in their moist uplands. Beginning his record with the continental collisions that shaped each town's history more than 300 million years ago, Williams allows us to "see the tenuous web of connections between ourselves and the natural processes that shape this earth." Featuring a wealth of beautiful and significant illustrations and maps, this unique work brings into focus the critical issues of environmental and cultural sustainability confronting us today. Elegant, poetic, and erudite, East 40 Degrees will appeal to architects and landscape architects, planners, environmental historians, ecologists, geographers, and anyone interested in the history and origins of our modern landscapes and towns. Publication of this volume was assisted by a grant from Furthermore: a program of the J. M. Kaplan Fund.
