Download or read book Native Plants for New England Gardens written by Mark Richardson and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2018-03-01 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Native plants are drought tolerant, disease resistant, wildlife friendly, and environmentally sound. Experts increasingly encourage gardeners to use natives exclusively. This handy and practical guide focuses on 100 great native flowers, ground covers, shrubs, ferns, and grasses that will thrive in New England gardens. The presentation is aimed at gardeners, who want concise, practical information. It will also include material on the importance and desirability of using native plants. The heart of this book is 100 two-page spreads, one for each species. The spreads will include facts about the plant of use to a gardener (not a botanist)—where it grows best, when it blooms, the soil conditions in which it thrives, its appeal to wildlife, sunlight requirements, how high it grows, how to propagate it, and how to avoid any problems particular to the species. Each spread will also feature two color photos.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Captivating and entertaining, this new collection of rare images brings to life the past of the historic Lower Blackstone River Valley. With insightful captions and hundreds of breathtaking photographs, author Charles Edouard Savoie introduces us to many of the early residents who shaped the future of the five communities in this area. We are transported back in time to see early homes and places of work, play, worship, and education. Covering the towns of Lincoln, Cumberland, Central Falls, Woonsocket, and Pawtucket, this new volume sheds light on how the communities of the lower valley evolved from primitive agricultural settlements coexisting with Native American tribes to sprawling industrial mill villages, towns, and cities. Valley residents are profiled, including a descendant of the Indian warrior-king Phillip-Metacomet, local military heroes, industrial movers and shakers, working-class people, farmers, and merchants. The people in the valley's communities are shown true to form--working, playing, and pulling together in times of crisis.

Book excerpt: Dave Brussat has made a significant contribution to the history of Providence. For those interested in that history, Lost Providence is a real find. Providence Journal Providence has one of the nation's most intact historic downtowns and is one of America's most beautiful cities. The history of architectural change in the city is one of lost buildings, urban renewal plans and challenges to preservation. The Narragansett Hotel, a lost city icon, hosted many famous guests and was demolished in 1960. The American classical renaissance expressed itself in the Providence National Bank, tragically demolished in 2005. Urban renewal plans such as the Downtown Providence plan and the College Hill plan threatened the city in the mid-twentieth century. Providence eventually embraced its heritage through plans like the River Relocation Project that revitalized the city's waterfront and the Downcity Plan that revitalized its downtown. Author David Brussat chronicles the trials and triumphs of Providence's urban development.

Download or read book Kissing the Shuttle written by Mary Ann Mayer and published by Blackstone River Books. This book was released on 2018-07 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Original poetry, dozens of archival images, and illuminating historical summaries depict the rise of the mills and King Cotton in the 19th century through the turn of the 20th. An accomplished poet weaves a tapestry of the textile industry that the Historian Laureate of Rhode Island calls "a blend of both triumph and tragedy." With the rise of the mills came a matrix of events, at times deadly, always in the name of prosperity. Labor "paced for the first time to feed the nation's frenzy for finished cloth. Northern collusion in slave-grown southern cotton. The tuberculosis epidemic. "Kissing the shuttle" was a common weaving practice that spread TB, and is but one inter-connected subject of this lyric narrative. Discover Rhode Island's pioneering public health role in curbing TB: "open-air" schools, the first hot school lunch program and formal outdoor recess, child labor laws and factory sanitation. Experience life in a TB sanatorium and open-air school through the eyes of a spirited young girl, inspired by the author's ancestors. Glimpse mill towns teeming with new arrivals, toxins coloring the Blackstone River, tenement porches strung with clotheslines "sagging with shirts that never dry / the same blue shirts / that cling, damp / to the backs of the laborers / a gray-blue line reaching to dawn." The author, also an occupational therapist, has delivered a well-researched, engaging volume which will inform, surprise, and entertain readers of history and poetry alike, and provide a teaching tool for YA students. Mayer re-enacts a history at risk of being forgotten, and shows its human face.

Book excerpt: Unlikely partners bound by circumstance…or by fate? Being rescued by a good-looking, bad-boy firefighter isn't how Samantha Bennett expected to start her stay in Knights Bridge, Massachusetts. Now she has everyone's attention—especially that of Justin Sloan, her rescuer, who wants to know why she was camped out in an abandoned old New England cider mill. Samantha is a treasure hunter who has returned to Knights Bridge to solve a 300-year-old mystery and salvage her good name. Justin remembers her well. He's the one who alerted her late mentor to her iffy past and got her fired. But just because he doesn't trust her doesn't mean he can resist her. Samantha is daring, determined, seized by wanderlust—everything that strong, stoic Justin never knew he wanted. Until now…
