Book Synopsis The Mortal Sea by : W. Jeffrey Bolster
Download or read book The Mortal Sea written by W. Jeffrey Bolster and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2012-10-08 with total page 413 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the Viking ascendancy in the Middle Ages, the Atlantic has shaped the lives of people who depend upon it for survival. And just as surely, people have shaped the Atlantic. In his innovative account of this interdependency, W. Jeffrey Bolster, a historian and professional seafarer, takes us through a millennium-long environmental history of our impact on one of the largest ecosystems in the world. While overfishing is often thought of as a contemporary problem, Bolster reveals that humans were transforming the sea long before factory trawlers turned fishing from a handliner's art into an industrial enterprise. The western Atlantic's legendary fishing banks, stretching from Cape Cod to Newfoundland, have attracted fishermen for more than five hundred years. Bolster follows the effects of this siren's song from its medieval European origins to the advent of industrialized fishing in American waters at the beginning of the twentieth century. Blending marine biology, ecological insight, and a remarkable cast of characters, from notable explorers to scientists to an army of unknown fishermen, Bolster tells a story that is both ecological and human: the prelude to an environmental disaster. Over generations, harvesters created a quiet catastrophe as the sea could no longer renew itself. Bolster writes in the hope that the intimate relationship humans have long had with the ocean, and the species that live within it, can be restored for future generations.

Book Synopsis Black Jacks by : W. Jeffrey. Bolster
Download or read book Black Jacks written by W. Jeffrey. Bolster and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2009-06-30 with total page 349 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Few Americans, black or white, recognize the degree to which early African American history is a maritime history. W. Jeffrey Bolster shatters the myth that black seafaring in the age of sail was limited to the Middle Passage. Seafaring was one of the most significant occupations among both enslaved and free black men between 1740 and 1865. Tens of thousands of black seamen sailed on lofty clippers and modest coasters. They sailed in whalers, warships, and privateers. Some were slaves, forced to work at sea, but by 1800 most were free men, seeking liberty and economic opportunity aboard ship.Bolster brings an intimate understanding of the sea to this extraordinary chapter in the formation of black America. Because of their unusual mobility, sailors were the eyes and ears to worlds beyond the limited horizon of black communities ashore. Sometimes helping to smuggle slaves to freedom, they were more often a unique conduit for news and information of concern to blacks.But for all its opportunities, life at sea was difficult. Blacks actively contributed to the Atlantic maritime culture shared by all seamen, but were often outsiders within it. Capturing that tension, Black Jacks examines not only how common experiences drew black and white sailors together--even as deeply internalized prejudices drove them apart--but also how the meaning of race aboard ship changed with time. Bolster traces the story to the end of the Civil War, when emancipated blacks began to be systematically excluded from maritime work. Rescuing African American seamen from obscurity, this stirring account reveals the critical role sailors played in helping forge new identities for black people in America.An epic tale of the rise and fall of black seafaring, Black Jacks is African Americans' freedom story presented from a fresh perspective.
Book Synopsis Downward-Facing Death by : Neal Pollack
Download or read book Downward-Facing Death written by Neal Pollack and published by Thomas & Mercer. This book was released on 2013 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Blessed with uncanny deductive skills and a blasé disregard for authority, Matt Bolster was a rising LAPD homicide detective by the age of thirty-five. He was also overworked, divorced, near-alcoholic, and miserable. Then, to impress a girl, he agreed to try yoga. And with a single savasana, everything changed. Now Bolster has traded his badge and gun for a scraggly beard and the life of an itinerant yoga teacher, dabbling in P.I. work to make rent. He mostly handles missing-persons cases, credit-card fraud - nothing too messy. But that's before Ajoy Chaterjee, the billionaire founder of one of the world's leading yoga-business empires, is found murdered inside his West L.A. flagship studio. Bolster knows the LAPD doesn't have a prayer of cracking the secrets of the yoga world. But he does, and he really needs the dough. Of course, sticking to the principles of the yamas and niyamas during a murder investigation isn't easy, especially with so many hot women among the suspects. But personal ethics will be the least of Bolster's problems if the killer finds him first. Episode List This book was initially released in episodes as a Kindle Serial.

Book Synopsis A Page from the Wonders of Life on Earth by : Stephanie Bolster
Download or read book A Page from the Wonders of Life on Earth written by Stephanie Bolster and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poetry. A PAGE FROM THE WONDERS OF LIFE ON EARTH is a book with a coherent vision of nature--constructed or framed, both in the present and in the recent past--through zoos, aviaries, formal gardens, menageries, and books like the Time Life one named in the title. Informed by the author's grand tour of these zoos and gardens, these poems provide a strong lens for considering the many paradoxes of inter-species relations; they open up the possibility of honest, unsentimental elegy. The book is also a model of what might be called investigative poetry, taking the poet's combination of perceptual acuity, craft, music and sensibility into these richly troubled places (prisons of, monuments to, museums for the lost natural world) where "arcades sell postcards of old photographs of the arcades," and where questions of what it means to be human, to be animal, to be other and to be art are tangibly in the air. "Bolster's work demonstrates a surety of vision supported by an insider's eye for the telling aberrant detail everywhere matched by her impeccable ear"--Judith Fitzgerald, The Globe and Mail.

Download or read book The HOT Plan written by Carole Liston and published by Education Blueprints Publishing. This book was released on 2016-03-15 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The HOT Plan? is a proven pathway to organizational success. Developed by businessman and educator Dr. Harvey Dean, the HOT Plan is a system based on collaborative teams who identify must-win challenges and key initiatives, then create targets to accomplish them. When teams hit their targets, they accrue points. Points collect company-wide and translate into a bonus at year's end, gamifying the system. The HOT Plan? is profitable, motivating and fun for all involved. As a former coach and teacher, Dean learned how to create champions. Later, Dean created an organizational structure that could duplicate his sport team's success in his business. He called his system for success The HOT Plan'.According to his business's statistics, the HOT Plan? ushered in his company's greatest period of growth in its 44-year history. Today Dean's company, Pitsco Education, ships educational products to 53 countries, services schools in all 50 United States, and is projected to reach more than three million students and teachers annually. Since the founding of Pitsco, more than 200 million students worldwide have been served by Pitsco's curriculum and products. But Pitsco's greatest strength, according to Dean, is the company's amazing workplace culture. Research shows that a strong workplace culture creates a distinct competitive advantage for companies. In 2015 two university-based studies verified Pitsco's deeply embedded, highly engaged employee culture. When interviewed, employees attribute the Pitsco culture and productivity to the HOT Plan.
