Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The World of Graft Municipal government in the United States has been criticised heretofore almost exclusively from the reformer's point of view. The great majority of the books, pamphlets, and magazine articles dealing with this subject have come from the pens of Upper World critics. The man who makes his living off the maladministration of our large cities has never been really heard. As a reformer, he says, in a different idiom, more or less what the social scientist says; as a professional thief, or tramp, still actively engaged in his business, he has not been persuaded to say anything of importance. Neither of the two "committees" which have recently investigated New York City was successful in getting him to "open up"; and the only books of value he has ever written in this country were written after he had decided to "square it" and live respectably. He is not a garrulous person; he must know absolutely with whom he is talking before he will enter into an intimate conversation.

Download or read book Graft written by Matt Hill and published by Watkins Media Limited. This book was released on 2016-02-02 with total page 427 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Manchester, 2025. Local mechanic Sol steals old vehicles to meet the demand for spares. But when Sol’s partner impulsively jacks a luxury model, Sol finds himself caught up in a nightmarish trans-dimensional human trafficking conspiracy. Hidden in the stolen car is a voiceless, three-armed woman called Y. She’s had her memory removed and undertaken a harrowing journey into a world she only vaguely recognises. And someone waiting in the UK expects her delivery at all costs. Now Sol and Y are on the run from both Y’s traffickers and the organisation’s faithful products. With the help of a dangerous triggerman and Sol’s ex, they must uncover the true, terrifying extent of the trafficking operation, or it’s all over. Not that there was much hope to start with. A novel about the horror of exploitation and the weight of love, Graft imagines a country in which too many people are only worth what’s on their price tag.

Download or read book Sesqui written by Thomas H. Keels and published by Temple University Press. This book was released on 2017-03-20 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1916, Philadelphia department-store magnate John Wanamaker launched plans for a Sesqui-Centennial International Exposition in 1926. It would be a magnificent world's fair to celebrate the 150th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence. The “Sesqui” would also transform sooty, industrial Philadelphia into a beautiful Beaux Arts city. However, when the Sesqui opened on May 31, 1926, in the remote, muddy swamps of South Philadelphia, the fair was unfinished, with a few shabbily built and mostly empty structures. Crowds stayed away in droves: fewer than five million paying customers attended, costing the city millions of dollars. Philadelphia became a national scandal—a city so corrupt that one political boss could kidnap an entire world’s fair. In his fascinating history Sesqui!, noted historian Thomas Keels situates this ill-fated celebration—a personal boondoggle by the all-powerful Congressman William S. Vare—against the transformations taking place in America during the 1920s. Keels provides a comprehensive account of the Sesqui as a meeting ground for cultural changes sweeping the country: women’s and African-American rights, anti-Semitism, eugenics, Prohibition, and technological advances.

An A-to-Z appendix of plants features detailed information on what type of graft should be used, when it should be done, what type of root stock needs to be used, and what environment it needs to be kept in. The Manual of Plant Grafting is a must-have guide for nursery and horticulture professionals, horticulture students, and orchard owners.
