This book was released on 2007 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Pokeshaw Rock (470 47' N 65015' W) is an inaccessible "sea stack" located along the south shore of Chaleur Bay about 20 km west of the town of Caraquet, New Brunswick, Canada. The Double-crested Cormorant Phalacrocorax auritus colony appears to have developed sometime after 1928; being first recorded in 1966. Seven surveys and/or estimates conducted from 1966 to 2006 have reported from 100 to 619 nests (mean 358, S.D. 219). The cormorant colony situated at the top of Pokeshaw Rock was remotely surveyed using an unobtrusive methodology on 6 June 2006. The maximum number of nests of Double-crested Cormorant in the colony was 577 (95% CI, range from 246 to 874). The ratio of observed adult birds versus nests (on both the long and narrow axis of the island) were both significantly correlated (R2 = 0.853, n=ll, P

Download or read book Wet Britches and Muddy Boots written by John H. White and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2012-11-22 with total page 545 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Succeeds admirably as an introductory survey of the early American travel experience”—from the National Book Award-nominated author (Journal of Transport History). What was travel like in the 1880s? Was it easy to get from place to place? Were the rides comfortable? How long did journeys take? Wet Britches and Muddy Boots describes all forms of public transport from canal boats to oceangoing vessels, passenger trains to the overland stage. Trips over long distances often involved several modes of transportation and many days, even weeks. Baggage and sometimes even children were lost en route. Travelers might start out with a walk down to the river to meet a boat for the journey to a town where they caught a stagecoach for the rail junction to catch the train for a ride to the city. John H. White Jr. discusses not only the means of travel but also the people who made the system run—riverboat pilots, locomotive engineers, stewards, stagecoach drivers, seamen. He provides a fascinating glimpse into a time when travel within the United States was a true adventure. “Throughout this massive work, the author repeatedly captures the romance, flavor, and color associated with travel.”—Choice “Every chapter, in any order, will constitute a well-spent and informative read. Journey with this book soon!”—National Railway Historical Society Bulletin “[A] popular history, informative and engaging . . . White has given us a book that’s as unusual as it is useful. Read it cover-to-cover or just pick out a random chapter in a stolen hour, and the book will be equally enjoyable either way.”—Railroad History
