Book Synopsis Shaping the Shoreline by : Connie Y. Chiang
Download or read book Shaping the Shoreline written by Connie Y. Chiang and published by University of Washington Press. This book was released on 2009-11-17 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Monterey coast, home to an acclaimed aquarium and the setting for John Steinbeck's classic novel Cannery Row, was also the stage for a historical junction of industry and tourism. Shaping the Shoreline looks at the ways in which Monterey has formed, and been formed by, the tension between labor and leisure. Connie Y. Chiang examines Monterey's development from a seaside resort into a working-class fishing town and, finally, into a tourist attraction again. Through the subjects of work, recreation, and environment -- the intersections of which are applicable to communities across the United States and abroad -- she documents the struggles and contests over this magnificent coastal region. By tracing Monterey's shift from what was once the literal Cannery Row to an iconic hub that now houses an aquarium in which nature is replicated to attract tourists, the interactions of people with nature continues to change. Drawing on histories of immigration, unionization, and the impact of national and international events, Chiang explores the reciprocal relationship between social and environmental change. By integrating topics such as race, ethnicity, and class into environmental history, Chiang illustrates the idea that work and play are not mutually exclusive endeavors.

Book Synopsis The Sandy Shoreline by : Emma Rose Sparrow
Download or read book The Sandy Shoreline written by Emma Rose Sparrow and published by . This book was released on 2014-07-02 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is one of a series of books for dementia patients (or those with Alzheimer's), camouflaged as a "real" book. A Sandy Shoreline is the perfect book for dementia patients who now struggle with long paragraphs and may have trouble following a story. It's so difficult when a book lover has to be given a children's book or one labeled as a book for dementia suffers; it takes away pride and self-confidence. This book - and others in this L3 series- are the answer, as they are specially formatted for dementia patients to follow along while appearing to be a 'real' book. Neither the title nor any text on or in the book states that the book is for dementia or any type of memory/cognitive problems. If your loved one is overwhelmed by 'normal' books but spry enough to feel offended with books labeled as dementia books or by being a children's book, this is the solution. This book is formatted with: A lovely "easy read" story without condescending childlike words. Perfect, slightly larger text (16x font). Short chapters. Short paragraphs. One extra space between each sentence to encourage the mind to take pause. One or two vivid color photos per each short chapter to give a visual clue to the subject matter without distracting the read. In addition, all books in this series have adult main characters that the reader will relate to. The Sandy Shoreline is the story of a woman discovers nature's treasures and wonderful sights along the beach. Each chapter brings another small treat. Readers will be able to feel as if they journeyed to the shoreline themselves, all wrapped up with a pleasant ending. It is an enjoyable and uplifting story with wording for adults (not childlike). Not only will you be giving a book that your loved one will be proud to have in his/her collection, you are also giving the gift of self-pride.
