Download or read book Early Placentia written by Jeanette Gardner and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2007 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today Placentia is part of the vast suburban Orange County sprawl that extends eastward from Los Angeles into Southern California's "Inland Empire." This landscape of homes and shopping centers was a windswept wilderness until a Mexican land grant helped transform it into ranches that dry-farmed hay and irrigated fruits and vegetables. The arrival of the Valencia orange and the discovery of oil reshaped the future of Placentia again as groves and derricks covered the land in the first half of the 20th century. The railroad also arrived, followed by more oil discovery to the east and the coming of laborers of Mexican heritage, who formed a community to the south. Schools, churches, and civic buildings remained ancillary to the predominantly agrarian society and economy that existed through the World War II era.

Download or read book Cod written by George A. Rose and published by Breakwater Books. This book was released on 2007 with total page 600 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The devastation of many of the greatest North Atlantic cod stocks, particularly those of Newfoundland and Labrador and the Grand Banks, has become an icon for the unsustainable relation between human exploitation and Nature. Here, George Rose tells the full story of that devastation, in scientific detail, for the first time - from the formation of the North Atlantic marine ecosystems to the massive stock declines in the last half of the 20th century. Politics and the fisheries are inextricably entwined. In Cod, Rose recounts the many political influences on the fisheries over several centuries and describes how neglect from the late 1800s onward led to insufficient scientific knowledge and little protection for the stocks when massive Euro-Russian fleets targeted the Grand Banks after World War II, destroying the most prolific fishery the world has known. Cod is no armchair account, but a controversial one that includes original information on the North Atlantic fisheries.
Download or read book Sailing to Jericho written by R. Bird and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2007-11 with total page 510 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Waiting Room" is the story of how one tragic event in life can not only change the course of that life, but teach us valuable lessons - some good, some bad. It's honest, and at times in-your-face, but most of all it shows that the light at the end of the tunnel is NOT always a train. In this book you will get an insight into the workings, and mishaps, of Workman's Comp, Long Term Disability, the insurance industry as well as the red tape of our justice system, all in layman's terms that anyone can understand. In the story that follows "The Waiting Room", "A Life Interrupted", Shari chronicles her life as a Caregiver, which started at a very early age. This journey involved many personal sacrafices on her part, which led her through a life of placing everyone else's well being ahead of her own. Together, these two stories give you a well rounded image of life and all of it's tragedies from two perspectives - the injured and sick, as well as the Caregiver.
