  • Release : 2019-10-19
  • ISBN : 9781693922060
  • Pages : 90 pages

Download or read book Le Renard Argent written by Paul Briggs and published by . This book was released on 2019-10-19 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sergeant Utley is good at two things in life: playing baseball and fighting Nazis. In Le Renard Argenté, he does both. The vignettes of Le Renard Argenté meld the Los Angeles Dodgers' 2017 and 2018 baseball seasons with the battlefields of World War II for a journey into purely speculative, deeply absurdist alternate history. "Space, the final frontier ... or so I thought, until I traveled to the world of Le Renard Argenté. This project looked deep within my soul, and my soul blinked. Like Chase Utley himself, it emerges from the foggy, hard-bitten quiet into a being of unexpected beauty, a testimony to tenacity and the adaptability of experience. Which is to say, it's a big smile." - Jon Weisman, author, Brothers in Arms: Koufax, Kershaw, and the Dodgers' Extraordinary Pitching Tradition "Ms. Smith hilariously takes you into a different reality to tell a story with perhaps the most unique of perspectives. Surreal and bizarre, ridiculous and hysterical. She turns the ultimate grinder into the ultimate Basterd." - Adam Amin, ESPN Broadcaster "Do I like the book? I mean, I don't dislike it." - Keith Law, Senior Baseball Writer ESPN and Twitter Bon Vivant

  • Publisher : Pickle Partners Publishing

  • ISBN : 1839740485
  • Pages : 452 pages

Download or read book Bright with Silver written by Kathrene Sutherland Gedney Pinkerton and published by Pickle Partners Publishing. This book was released on 2019-11-22 with total page 452 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bright with Silver, first published in 1947, it has been nearly sixty years since Kathrene Pinkerton wrote Bright with Silver. This study of the famous Fromm brothers and their endeavor and persistence to breed a very rare and valuable type of fox would become a landmark history of American entrepreneurship. The simple beauty and elegance of the silver fox would be the fulfillment of the brothers' struggles to build a fur breeding empire. The story of the Fromm brothers that Pinkerton provides is a classic study of ingenuity and stick-to-itiveness that for so many years became a trademark of these four brothers. The intricate and complex history of their endeavors began with growing ginseng. This included intense observations of the plant that would provide the conditions, which eventually yielded abundant harvests that resulted in the necessary cash to start their fur business. Of course, the main story of Pinkerton is how the dreams of a perfect silver fox culture had overtaken the Fromm's possessions, thoughts and lives. The continual endeavor to find the right strain for their silver fox breed and their devotion to medical research that would ease the ravages of disease that could plague these precious animals would be the story that Pinkerton does so very well. It is without doubt that these four brothers, Walter, Edward, John, and Henry brought to the central Wisconsin landscape a business enterprise that played a large part in the economic development of this part of the state. Their story has all the ingredients of imagination, creativity, and great business sense. This edition brings back the story of the Fromm brothers that has been long gone, and sorely missed from the Wisconsin literary scene. Included are 32 pages of photographs.

Book How to Tame a Fox  and Build a Dog

Download or read book How to Tame a Fox and Build a Dog written by Lee Alan Dugatkin and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2019-04-14 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tucked away in Siberia, there are furry, four-legged creatures with wagging tails and floppy ears that are as docile and friendly as any lapdog. But, despite appearances, these are not dogs—they are foxes. They are the result of the most astonishing experiment in breeding ever undertaken—imagine speeding up thousands of years of evolution into a few decades. In 1959, biologists Dmitri Belyaev and Lyudmila Trut set out to do just that, by starting with a few dozen silver foxes from fox farms in the USSR and attempting to recreate the evolution of wolves into dogs in real time in order to witness the process of domestication. This is the extraordinary, untold story of this remarkable undertaking. Most accounts of the natural evolution of wolves place it over a span of about 15,000 years, but within a decade, Belyaev and Trut’s fox breeding experiments had resulted in puppy-like foxes with floppy ears, piebald spots, and curly tails. Along with these physical changes came genetic and behavioral changes, as well. The foxes were bred using selection criteria for tameness, and with each generation, they became increasingly interested in human companionship. Trut has been there the whole time, and has been the lead scientist on this work since Belyaev’s death in 1985, and with Lee Dugatkin, biologist and science writer, she tells the story of the adventure, science, politics, and love behind it all. In How to Tame a Fox, Dugatkin and Trut take us inside this path-breaking experiment in the midst of the brutal winters of Siberia to reveal how scientific history is made and continues to be made today. To date, fifty-six generations of foxes have been domesticated, and we continue to learn significant lessons from them about the genetic and behavioral evolution of domesticated animals. How to Tame a Fox offers an incredible tale of scientists at work, while also celebrating the deep attachments that have brought humans and animals together throughout time.
