Book Synopsis Collateral Values by : Todd R. Lookingbill
Download or read book Collateral Values written by Todd R. Lookingbill and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-07-30 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the unanticipated benefits that may arise after wars and conflicts, showing how the preservation of battlefields and the establishment of borderlands can create natural capital in the former landscapes of war. The editors call this Collateral Value, in contrast to the collateral damage that war inflicts upon infrastructure, natural capital, and human capital. The book includes case studies recounting successes and failures, opportunities and risks, and ambitious proposals. The book is organized in two sections. The first visits U.S., English, and French battlefield sites dating from medieval England to World War I. The second explores borderlands located on several continents, established to end or prevent conflict. Both of these can create value beyond their original purpose, by preserving natural areas and restoring biodiversity. Among the topics covered are: · Registering English Battlefields · Old forts and new amenities in the Southern Plains of the U.S. · Verdun, France, and the conservation of WWI cultural and natural heritage · Conservation lessons learned in the Cordillera del Condor Corridor of the Andes mountains · Korea’s DMZ and its nature preserve · Wakhan National Park, a mountainous buffer area between Afghanistan and Pakistan The book examines state-of-the-art applications of landscape ecology, including methods for change detection, connectivity analysis, and the quantification of ecosystem services. Also included is a chapter on a creative proposal for “Guantánamo 2.0,” which would transform the Gitmo detention facility into a peace park and ecological research center. A concluding chapter appraises the past, present, and future of Collateral Values. Collateral Values: The Natural Capital Created by Landscapes of War benefits a broad audience of advanced undergraduate and graduate students, researchers, and practicing professionals.

Book Synopsis Child Of The Diaspora by : Michael A. Hutchinson
Download or read book Child Of The Diaspora written by Michael A. Hutchinson and published by ShieldCrest. This book was released on 2015-06-16 with total page 231 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about discovering the hidden and horrific events and the bravery that lay behind my idyllic childhood in rural Suffolk from the end of World War Two. Parental discord led to a permanent parental rift, but, rightly or wrongly, I came to accept that as par for the course. It was only later in life, that I looked deeper into my family roots and had began to question the assumptions that I had bought into when I was younger, that I came to discover that my late mother had escaped from Nazi-occupied Austria just prior to the commencement of the war, and played a crucial role in the war-effort. Likewise I learnt that my late dad had become orphaned in his earlier teens and that his sister and brothers had struggled to bring him home from the workhouse. More of Dad's side of the story, including his crucial role in the D-day landings, will follow in the sequel to this book
Book Synopsis Childhood and Child Labour in Industrial England by : Katrina Honeyman
Download or read book Childhood and Child Labour in Industrial England written by Katrina Honeyman and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-05-23 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this collection is to bring together representative examples of the most recent work that is taking an understanding of children and childhood in new directions. The two key overarching themes are diversity: social, economic, geographical, and cultural; and agency: the need to see children in industrial England as participants - even protagonists - in the process of historical change, not simply as passive recipients or victims. Contributors address such crucial subjects as the varied experience of work; poverty and apprenticeship; institutional care; the political voice of children; child sexual abuse; and children and education. This volume, therefore, includes some of the best, innovative work on the history of children and childhood currently being written by both younger and established scholars.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: June 13th 1890: Mrs Bailey found Albert playing truant on Wednesday morning and brought him to school, giving him a good thrashing in the cap room with a stick she brought with her. December 11th 1908: The inclement weather has affected the average. Had two cases of boys not attending through want of boots. Following the 1870 Forster Elementary Education Act, Albert Road Board School in Leicestershire opened on September 2nd 1878, with an average role of 500 children. Drawn from the first-hand accounts of the head teachers in the school logbooks, this book details the diseases and ailments suffered; the struggle of local families to feed and clothe their children, especially during difficult times of strike and war; the introduction of vaccinations and the school health inspector; and comments about the curriculum, staff and leisure activities. Sometimes humorous but often sad, everyday life is captured here: from accounts of overcrowded classrooms and corporal punishment, to squabbles about tending the classroom fires, this book describes the reality of life in a Victorian school.

Book Synopsis Walking to Camelot by : John A. Cherrington
Download or read book Walking to Camelot written by John A. Cherrington and published by Figure 1 Publishing. This book was released on 2016-03-21 with total page 355 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: John Cherrington and his seventy-four year old walking companion set out one fine morning in May to traverse the only English footpath that cuts south through the rural heart of the country, a formidable path called the Macmillan Way. Cherrington’s walking partner is Karl Yzerman, an irascible “bull of the woods”, a full twenty years his senior and the perfect foil to the wry and self-deprecating author. Their journey begins at Boston on the Wash and takes them through areas of outstanding beauty such as the Cotswolds, Somerset, and Dorset, all the way to Chesil Beach. Their ultimate destination is Cadbury Castle, a hillfort that many archeologists believe to be the likely location of King Arthur’s legendary centre of operations in the late 5th century when he—or some other prominent British warrior chieftain—made his last stand against the Saxons. Along the way the unlikely duo experiences many adventures, including a serious crime scene, a bull attack, several ghosts, a brothel, and the English themselves. On virtually every page of the book the historical merges with the magic of the footpath, with Cherrington making astute, often humorous observations on the social, cultural and culinary mores of the English, all from a very North American perspective.

Book Synopsis Wigston in the First World War by : Duncan Lucas
Download or read book Wigston in the First World War written by Duncan Lucas and published by The History Press. This book was released on 2014-06-01 with total page 151 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wigston Magna, in the heart of tranquil Leicestershire, was transformed from a peaceful existence in August 1914, as war-clouds swept across the skies of Europe. This village, the home of farming folk and framework knitters, suddenly witnessed its young men leaving, in vast numbers, to answer the call of King and Country.Greater demands were placed upon those who remained as the factories and farms responded to the needs of a wartime nation. A unique presence was the Glen Parva Barracks, the Regimental Depot of the Leicestershire Regiment, where tens of thousands of recruits and conscripted men received their basic training to prepare them for war.This is the story of Wigston in the First World War, the men who fought on the frontline – one of whom was awarded the Victoria Cross – and those who served on the Home Front during ‘the war to end all wars’.
