Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While many of the plant and animal communities on Delmarva are typical of those found on the Atlantic coastal plain, the peninsula also includes piedmont rivers and woods, saltwater and freshwater marshes, ocean dunes, Delmarva bays, and even remnant cypress swamps. It is, in fact, not unreasonable to view the Delmarva Peninsula as a microcosm of natural life as it is found along a major portion of the eastern seaboard.This book explores the lure of the peninsula from the viewpoint of the natural historian and shows how geological history, plant communities, and animals are all interdependent. The text is full of interesting but little-known facts that should cause the reader to view the land with fresh eyes.

This book was released on 2009-06-30 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Because of its geographic position and its geologic past, the Delmarva Peninsula is a transition zone between the northern and southern sections of the Atlantic Coast of North America. The north-south influences result in a high diversity of species of plants and animals, including amphibians and reptiles. Delmarva's amphibians and reptiles are overlooked by the vast majority of people living in the area. Many have never heard a northern spring peeper call or seen a salamander, even though a breeding chorus of peepers is common in the spring and salamanders are residents of most woodlands in Delmarva. Misconceptions also abound. For example, people sometimes think they have seen "cottonmouths" (water moccasins) on Delmarva, though this venomous species is not known to occur north of the mouth of the Chesapeake Bay. Other common fallacies are the belief that snakes are slimy or that handling a toad can cause warts. This updated field guide to amphibians and reptiles of Delmarva will be useful to everyone interested in these fascinating creatures--from the curious child who brings home a salamander, to students, experienced naturalists, and professionals in need of life history, behavioral, and distributional information on Delmarva's amphibians (salamanders and frogs) and reptiles (turtles, lizards, and snakes). Seventy-three species are included in this second edition--seventy known to occur on Delmarva and three that the authors believe either occur there or once did. Outstanding color plates aid in identifying the species.

This book was released on 2022-01-10 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wilmington's East Side is the oldest residential community in the city. The first Swedish colony settled there in the 1600s, and over time, Jewish, Polish, and African American people followed. By the mid-1950s, the East Side emerged as a predominantly Black, achievement-oriented community--a place where working-class families, Black-owned businesses, and Black doctors, lawyers, teachers, musicians, and community leaders lived, worshipped, and worked together amid segregation. Among historic landmarks are Howard High School, People's Settlement Association, Walnut Street Y, St. Michael's School and Nursery, Clifford Brown Walk, Louis Redding House, and multidenominational churches. Situated in an urban setting east of downtown, the East Side is walking distance from the central business district, small retail establishments, and employers.

Book excerpt: Rich in history, the Delmarva Peninsula encompasses Delaware and the parts of Maryland and Virginia that lie between the Chesapeake Bay and the Atlantic Ocean, as shown in the hand-drawn map on page 2. Departing Delmarva is a reverential treatment of gravestones and historical markers that will be of value to people interested in the history of the Delmarva Peninsula as well as to those whose ancestors are buried in the referenced cemeteries. Because of the lyrical prose and hundreds of beautifully displayed photographs, Departing Delmarva seems like a walk through art history, yet it provides a physical connection to the unseen world beyond.Author/photographer Jim Travers says, "I hope and believe that an awareness and appreciation of the hundreds of 'resting places' throughout the Delmarva Peninsula will foster both memories and insights into the lives of our ancestors and also will confirm and validate our own sense of identity by helping us to better understand ourselves."
