Book Synopsis Hetch Hetchy by : Michael Maurice O'shaughnessy
Download or read book Hetch Hetchy written by Michael Maurice O'shaughnessy and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-12-23 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Hetch Hetchy: Its Origin and History Forty years ago my first public experience for San Francisco was in projecting new streets such as Market Street over Twin Peaks and via Sloat Boulevard to the ocean, and the extension of Potrero Avenue northerly and southerly to the County Line, coinciding practically with the existing Bay Shore Highway, so that it was with some hesitancy I again entered the City's service. All my other experience has been with Public Service corporations, such as the sugar plantations of Hawaii, where I served as Chief Engineer in building three large aque ducts from 1900 to 1906, and from 1907 to 1912 as Chief Engineer of the Southern California Mountain Water Company, San Diego, working directly under two Old San Franciscans - Mr. John D. Spreckels and Mr. A. B. Spreckels. San Francisco was engaged in the midst of a controversy in Obtaining rights on Hetch Hetchy, and all those matters are recited in this book from my actual contact with the subjects. I never handled any proposition where the engineering problems were so simple and the political ones so complex. I am very happy that the work is completed, at relatively moderate costs. This is due to the efficient camp and labor conditions I established and the good order and discipline which prevailed in all of our camps. One may forget the minor controversies that developed on the project. They have no bearing on its historical character and hence I confine my discussion to major problems. It is a great undertaking that has been brought to completion. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book On the Trail written by Silas Chamberlin and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2016-10-25 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first history of the American hiking community and its contributions to the nation’s vast network of trails. In the mid-nineteenth century urban walking clubs emerged in the United States. A little more than a century later, tens of millions of Americans were hiking on trails blazed in every region of the country. This groundbreaking book is the first full account of the unique history of the American hiking community and its rich, nationwide culture. Delving into unexplored archives, including those of the Appalachian Mountain Club, Sierra Club, Green Mountain Club, and many others, Silas Chamberlin recounts the activities of hikers who over many decades formed clubs, built trails, and advocated for environmental protection. He also discusses the shifting attitudes of the late 1960s and early 1970s when ideas about traditional volunteerism shifted and new hikers came to see trail blazing and maintenance as government responsibilities. Chamberlin explores the implications for hiking groups, future club leaders, and the millions of others who find happiness, inspiration, and better health on America’s trails. “With rich historical context Silas Chamberlin inspires new appreciation for trailblazers, while sharing the legacy of hiking and its growing importance today, as people find their way to a new relationship with the natural world.”—Richard Louv, author of Last Child in the Woods and Vitamin N “Chamberlin has demonstrated that what at first looks simple—walking on our own two feet—has a complex history of changing cultural associations, social infrastructure, and national significance.”—James Longhurst, University of Wisconsin – La Crosse

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "You can't really know the place where you live until you know the shapes and origins of the land around you. To feel truly at home in the Bay Area, read Doris Sloan's intriguing stories of this region's spectacular, quirky landscapes."—Hal Gilliam, author of Weather of the San Francisco Bay Region "This is a fascinating look at some of the world's most complex and engaging geology. I highly recommend this book to anyone interested in an understanding of the beautiful landscape and dynamic geology of the Bay Area."—Mel Erskine, geological consultant "This accessible summary of San Francisco Bay Area geology is particularly timely. We are living in an age where we must deal with our impact on our environment and the impact of the environment on us. Earthquake hazards, and to a lesser extent landslide hazards, are well known, but the public also needs to be aware of other important engineering and environmental impacts and geologic resources. This book will allow Bay Area residents to make more intelligent decisions about the geological issues affecting their lives."—John Wakabayashi, geological consultant
