Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Natural Bridge, located in the historic Shenandoah Valley, is one of the most recognized and visited geologic landmarks in the country. The massive 90-foot-wide arch spans Cedar Creek, which runs 200 feet below. Legend says that George Washington, as a young land surveyor, carved his initials on its wall. In 1774, King George III granted ownership to Thomas Jefferson. Natural Bridge was often regarded as the Eighth Natural Wonder of the World during the 19th and 20th centuries. The site became a popular venue for events, ranging from conventions to the annual Easter Sunrise Service. Hotels, inns, and cottages were built to accommodate travelers, and on-site attractionsincluding a show cave, a wax museum, and a Monacan Indian villagebroadened visitor appeal. Natural Bridge remained privately owned until 2014, when the title was transferred, allowing it to become a state park; the bridge will now truly belong to the people, a concept that would have made Jefferson proud. -- Amazon.com.

Download or read book Cricket's Child, 1945-1955 written by Janice Saunders and published by University Press of America. This book was released on 2008 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Centered on a little girl raised in the Appalachian region of North Carolina and then Virginia, Cricket's Child, 1945-1955 offers a mid-twentieth-century social history. The narrative illuminates how historical milestones such as the emergence of a Cold War between the U.S. and the Soviet Union impacted personal experiences in a working class, southern family. After the development of atomic weapons in the 1940s, the specter of a nuclear holocaust loomed ominously in American culture, as well as in the universe of the pivotal character in this story. This is a chronicle about how ordinary people want about their daily lives, how they earned a living, what diseases they suffered, what they ate, wore, enjoyed, believed, and feared during an extraordinary decade in U.S. history. Other issues which added to the general anxiety of the era, such as the polio epidemic, religious repression, and inequalities in social class, gender, and race are also explored in this book.
