Download or read book Carrasco s Gold written by G. Allen Clark and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2012-05-20 with total page 325 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the 16th to the 19th century, Colorado was a major pathway for Spanish gold caravans. In the 1700's a transport led by Carrasco Rodriguez carried 12 chests of gold coins from Santa Fe New Mexico to Florida. They got as far as southern Colorado, never to be heard from again. From the 1850's through the Civil War, Colorado experienced another form of gold rush in the form of mining in the mountain boomtowns of Blackhawk, Cripple Creek and Leadville. By mid-war however, the Confederacy's coffers were empty and a desperate plan to raid the goldfields of Colorado was hatched by men looking to keep a desperate cause alive. How did these seemingly unrelated eras interrelate? Vince Roberts is about to find out. When he rescues the daughter of a former Gunny Sergeant whose family history goes back to the civil war, Vince embarks on a risky journey. His life of freedom also comes into question as he realizes he may have found what he's been seeking if only he can avoid dying.

Download or read book City of Sacrifice written by David Carrasco and published by Beacon Press. This book was released on 2000-12-08 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At an excavation of the Great Aztec Temple in Mexico City, amid carvings of skulls and a dismembered warrior goddess, David Carrasco stood before a container filled with the decorated bones of infants and children. It was the site of a massive human sacrifice, and for Carrasco the center of fiercely provocative questions: If ritual violence against humans was a profound necessity for the Aztecs in their capital city, is it central to the construction of social order and the authority of city states? Is civilization built on violence? In City of Sacrifice,Carrasco chronicles the fascinating story of Tenochtitlan, the Aztec capital, investigating Aztec religious practices and demonstrating that religious violence was integral to urbanization; the city itself was a temple to the gods. That Mexico City, the largest city on earth, was built on the ruins of Tenochtitlan, is a point Carrasco poignantly considers in his comparison of urban life from antiquity to modernity. Majestic in scope, City of Sacrifice illuminates not only the rich history of a major Meso american city but also the inseparability of two passionate human impulses: urbanization and religious engagement. It has much to tell us about many familiar events in our own time, from suicide bombings in Tel Aviv to rape and murder in the Balkans.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Chapman and Hall Fish and Fisheries Series occasionally includes books devoted to a single taxon of fish that are of particular interest to fish and fisheries science. All three previous books of this type (Cichlid Fishes, Cyprinid Fishes, Sea Bass) have included important material on commercial fishery exploitation, but Hake: Biology, fisheries and markets, number 15 in the Series, is the first book that focuses on a major global fishery resource. This book brings together detailed analyses of the ocean habitats, biology, ecology, assessment and management of all the hake fisheries of the world for the first time. Globally, there are ten major world fisheries for 12 species of hake on both sides of the North and the South Atlantic, the Mediterra nean, the eastern North and South Pacific and New Zealand. The book includes an overview of industrial markets and products of hake. Hake fisheries are of particular economic interest as their location spans almost a complete spectrum of industrial development from major industrial countries like USA, Canada, Spain and Italy through New Zealand, South Africa, Argentina and Chile to Morocco, Peru, Mauritania, Namibia and Angola.
