Book Synopsis The 60s Communes by : Timothy Miller
Download or read book The 60s Communes written by Timothy Miller and published by Syracuse University Press. This book was released on 1999-12-01 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The greatest wave of communal living in American history crested in the tumultuous 1960s era including the early 1970s. To the fascination and amusement of more decorous citizens, hundreds of thousands of mostly young dreamers set out to build a new culture apart from the established society. Widely believed by the larger public to be sinks of drug-ridden sexual immorality, the communes both intrigued and repelled the American people. The intentional communities of the 1960s era were far more diverse than the stereotype of the hippie commune would suggest. A great many of them were religious in basis, stressing spiritual seeking and disciplined lifestyles. Others were founded on secular visions of a better society. Hundreds of them became so stable that they survive today. This book surveys the broad sweep of this great social yearning from the first portents of a new type of communitarianism in the early 1960s through the waning of the movement in the mid-1970s. Based on more than five hundred interviews conducted for the 60s Communes Project, among other sources, it preserves a colorful and vigorous episode in American history. The book includes an extensive directory of active and non-active communes, complete with dates of origin and dissolution.

Book excerpt: When Spanish explorers turned their ships north in the summer of 1775, they were searching for new territory for the Spanish crown. Nearly 300 miles north of San Francisco, they found safe harbor in a small but beautiful bay they called Trinidad. The Spaniards erected a large cross on Trinidad Head and left the Bay of Trinidad prominently marked on maps of what would become the fledgling state of California. Many came to Trinidad to seek their fortunes--from fur traders and Gold Rush miners to pioneer homesteaders and timber barons. They found the land already inhabited by indigenous Yurok tribes, whose ancestral home encompassed the entire greater Trinidad region, bound by three rivers and filled with a vast and ancient redwood forest. Today, after more than a century and a half of boom and bust, Trinidad is a seaside oasis.

Book Synopsis Good Time Girls of California by : Jan MacKell Collins
Download or read book Good Time Girls of California written by Jan MacKell Collins and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2021-03-01 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While settlers were drawn out West by the often empty promises of the Gold Rush, prostitution grew and flourished within the mining camps, small towns, and cities of nineteenth-century California. Whether escaping a bad home life, lured by false advertising, or seeking to subsidize their income, thousands of women chose or were forced to enter an industry where they faced segregation and persecution, fines and jailing, and battled the other hazards of their profession. Some dreamed of escape through marriage or retirement, and some became infamous and even successful, but more often found relief only in death. An integral part of western history, the stories of these women continue to fascinate readers and captivate the minds of historians today. Working girls and madams like Bodie's famous Rosa May and the gambler Madame Moustache remain notorious celebrities in the annals of history, and Collins also includes the stories of lesser-known women whose roles in this illicit trade help shape our understanding of the American West.
Book Synopsis Lighthouses of Humboldt County by : Julie Clark
Download or read book Lighthouses of Humboldt County written by Julie Clark and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2021-10-11 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The impenetrable coast of Humboldt County has been a historic navigational conundrum for sea captains since the 16th century. The Humboldt bar crossing, the lack of safe harbors, the storms, the unpredictable seas, and the rocky shores caused tragic shipwrecks, drownings, and maritime disasters. Beginning in 1850, the Department of the Treasury funded the construction of 11 lighthouses in California, including the Humboldt Harbor Lighthouse, the first one in Humboldt County. Due to its poor location in the sand dunes, the lighthouse was abandoned in 1892. New lighthouses were built in more appropriate locations such as Table Bluff, Cape Mendocino, Trinidad, and Punta Gorda. An increase in population on the north coast resulted in the reliance on passenger schooners and freight vessels, making these lighthouses critical to Humboldt County's economic stability and success. The Trinidad Head Lighthouse is the only one in operation today, yet the lighthouses of Humboldt County and their keepers remain integral to California's maritime history.

Book Synopsis Historical and Oceanographic Influences on Phylogeography in the California Current Ecosystem and Applications to Management of Marine Species by : Alison Jane Haupt
Download or read book Historical and Oceanographic Influences on Phylogeography in the California Current Ecosystem and Applications to Management of Marine Species written by Alison Jane Haupt and published by Stanford University. This book was released on 2011 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The overarching theme of my thesis is to explore patterns of larval dispersal as they relate to management of fished marine species. I employed a case study of two species: Megastraea undosa and Parastichopus parvimensis to investigate patterns of phylogeography and assess relative scales of dispersal for these two species which are fished in both California, USA and Baja California, MEX. To examine how some generalities for many species can be made for a specific geographic area, I reviewed all existing phylogeographic studies around Cape Mendocino, CA. Dispersal at a snail's pace: Strong genetic structure in the fisheries gastropod Megastaea undosa. Information about larval dispersal is necessary for effective management of fisheries. Population genetics are often employed to assess dispersal, but these data also carry artifacts from the evolutionary history of a species. I assessed historical and modern demography of the wavy top snail, Megastraea undosa, a marine snail that is fished in California, USA and Baja California, Mexico. Genetic structure at the COI mtDNA locus is strikingly high, with large shifts in haplotype frequencies between southern Baja and southern California. Coalescent-based modeling of genetic data suggests that the population has limited dispersal throughout the range and underwent a northward range expansion after the last glacial maximum. I conclude that both historical and contemporary processes affect observed patterns of phylogeography in M. undosa. Consideration of the evolutionary history of target species allows for a more accurate interpretation of genetic data for management. iv Subtle genetic structure in the commercially fished warty sea cucumber, Parastichopus parvimensis. The warty sea cucumber, P. parvimensis, is fished commercially in both California, USA and Baja California, Mexico but little is known about the status of the fisheries or if separate stocks exist. P. parvimensis has a long pelagic larval duration of 50-90 days, which may translate to high connectivity throughout the species range (Monterey, CA, USA to BahÃa Asuncion, BCS, Mexico). I examined phylogeographic patterns at the COI mtDNA locus and five microsatellite loci throughout the range of P. parvimensis and was particularly interested in patterns associated with the potential phylogeographic barriers of Point Conception, CA, USA and Punta Eugenia, BCS, MEX. I found no structure associated with Point Conception, but subtle genetic structure at both types of loci for Punta Eugenia, which may be mechanistically explained by oceanographic patterns. These data have important implications for management of the sea cucumber fishery and indicate that populations south of Punta Eugenia likely do not receive biologically meaningful input of larvae from northern populations to supplement the local fishery. Concordant phylogeographic patterns associated with the major headland of Cape Mendocino in northern California. Most coastlines are non-linear and headlands such as Cape Mendocino may interact with oceanographic processes to create barriers to dispersal. Though Cape Mendocino is a prominent headland, it has been largely ignored in the phylogeographic literature, which focuses instead on Point Conception in southern California. I reviewed and synthesized phylogeographic studies that include sampling sites north and south of Cape Mendocino and discuss the v oceanography and topography of the cape as potential mechanistic drivers of larval dispersal patterns. Slightly more than half (24 out of 46) of the surveyed species that showed significant genetic structure around this headland, which suggests that this headland may be an important barrier to dispersal and may limit connectivity between northern and central California. If populations north of Cape Mendocino have higher connectivity with populations in Oregon than with those in central California, marine spatial planning must occur at a multi-state scale to reach marine conservation goals.
Book Synopsis San Francisco Ship Passenger Lists by : Louis J. Rasmussen
Download or read book San Francisco Ship Passenger Lists written by Louis J. Rasmussen and published by Genealogical Publishing Com. This book was released on 2009-06 with total page 460 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In his latest book, genealogist David Dobson has compiled a list of Scottish surnames of the estimated 150,000 Scots who settled in the America colonies. Many of the same surnames, of course, apply to the even greater number of Scots-Irish colonists whose forebears had originated in Scotland before re-settling in the province of Ulster.The Scottish Surnames of Colonial America attempts to identify Scottish names, provide explanations of their meaning and significance, give examples, and where applicable, name the clan to which the family is linked. In all, Mr. Dobson identifies about 1,000 Scottish surnames and their derivatives and also mentions one or more actual Scottish North Americans who bore that name before 1776.
