Download or read book Along the Schuylkill River written by Laura Catalano and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2009 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Schuylkill River got its name, meaning "hidden river," from Dutch settlers who discovered its mouth sequestered behind the Delaware River's League Island. It later became a river of revolutions. Along its banks Revolutionary War battles were fought, and George Washington's army famously camped at Valley Forge. Later the river helped fuel the Industrial Revolution with coal from Schuylkill County shipped to Philadelphia via the Schuylkill Canal. The Philadelphia and Reading Railroad began here and grew into the largest corporation in the world. The iron and steel industry flourished along its waters. The Schuylkill River Desilting Project of the 1950s was the first large-scale cleanup of its kind and helped usher in an environmental revolution. The nation's first public water supply was developed here, and its first zoo and university overlook the river.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Torn Apart by Those You Love is a compulsive epic tale of two families that takes us through their immigration from Galicia, Poland, to America, their relationships, their revenge and the pursuit of their American dream. It is a story of hope, of resolve, and of digging deeper into their thought processes to find the strength to carry on in any adversity. Their attitudes will cloud your vision, and you will observe and eventually realize that people, even family, will use and abuse you either verbally or physically. My father stole my mother from me and then tried to steal my life. You will learn to be bold, be brave, and be true to yourself. You will be able to decide what path you want to take and then set one foot in front of the other. You have the power to create your own destiny. Taking risks were my biggest rewards. This story runs 82,940 words. I'm a freelance writer and researcher and have contributed to Clinician Reviews, The American Journal of Anesthesiology, The Clinical Advisor, PA Advance.

Download or read book Underground Philadelphia: From Caves and Canals to Tunnels and Transit written by Harry Kyriakodis & Joel Spivak and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2019 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Philadelphia's relationship with the underground is as old as the city itself, dating back to when Quaker settlers resided in caves alongside the Delaware River more than three hundred years ago. The City of Brotherly Love later became a national and world leader in the delivery of water, gas, steam, and electricity during the industrial age. The construction of multiple subway lines within Center City took place during the early twentieth century. An intricate subsurface pedestrian concourse was also developed throughout the downtown area for the city's inhabitants. From Thirtieth Street Station and Reading Terminal to the Commuter Rail Tunnel and transit lines that were never built, Philadelphia's infrastructure history is buried under the earth as much as above. Join authors Harry Kyriakodis and Joel Spivak as they reveal the curious aspects of the Quaker City's underground experience.

Download or read book The Face of Decline written by Thomas Dublin and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2016-11-15 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The anthracite coal region of Pennsylvania once prospered. Today, very little mining or industry remains, although residents have made valiant efforts to restore the fabric of their communities. In The Face of Decline, the noted historians Thomas Dublin and Walter Licht offer a sweeping history of this area over the course of the twentieth century. Combining business, labor, social, political, and environmental history, Dublin and Licht delve into coal communities to explore grassroots ethnic life and labor activism, economic revitalization, and the varied impact of economic decline across generations of mining families. The Face of Decline also features the responses to economic crisis of organized capital and labor, local business elites, redevelopment agencies, and state and federal governments. Dublin and Licht draw on a remarkable range of sources: oral histories and survey questionnaires; documentary photographs; the records of coal companies, local governments, and industrial development corporations; federal censuses; and community newspapers. The authors examine the impact of enduring economic decline across a wide region but focus especially on a small group of mining communities in the region's Panther Valley, from Jim Thorpe through Lansford to Tamaqua. The authors also place the anthracite region within a broader conceptual framework, comparing anthracite's decline to parallel developments in European coal basins and Appalachia and to deindustrialization in the United States more generally.
