Book Synopsis An Archaeological History of Montserrat in the West Indies by : John F. Cherry
Download or read book An Archaeological History of Montserrat in the West Indies written by John F. Cherry and published by Oxbow Books. This book was released on 2020-02-28 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Montserrat is a small island in the Leeward islands of the eastern Caribbean and at present a British Overseas Territory. It has suffered greatly in recent times, first from the devastations of Hurricane Hugo in 1989 and since 1995 from the still-ongoing eruption of the Soufrière Hills volcano that has caused two-thirds of the island’s population to emigrate and left half the island a dangerous exclusion zone. Archaeological research here began only in the late 1970s, but work over the past four decades has now made it possible to present an archaeological history of Montserrat, from the earliest known traces of human activity on the island about 5,000 years ago to the present. This book draws on all the available archaeological evidence (including that from the co-authors’ own island-wide survey and excavation project since 2010), as well as newly available archival documents, to trace this little island’s long history and heritage. This is not the story of an isolated and remote island: Montserrat is shown rather to be a place intricately connected to the flows of people and goods that have travelled between islands and across the Atlantic at various points in time, both Amerindian and historical. Despite its small size and seeming irrelevance, Montserrat has in fact always been networked into regional and global systems of connectivity. An underlying theme of this volume is resilience. It presents insights from the archaeological and documentary evidence on how the island’s inhabitants have coped with often adverse conditions throughout the course of its history – hurricanes, volcanic eruptions, slavery, disease, invasions, and impoverishment – all while remaining proudly connected to heritage that celebrates the accomplishments of island residents.

Book Synopsis Landscapes and Landforms of the Lesser Antilles by : Casey D. Allen
Download or read book Landscapes and Landforms of the Lesser Antilles written by Casey D. Allen and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-07-19 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on the highly touristed, but surprisingly under-researched Lesser Antilles region. After offering a brief overview of the region’s geologic and tectonic history, as well as its basic climatology, subsequent chapters then discuss each island’s (or island set’s) geomorphology and geology, and how the settlement history, tourism, and hazards have affected their individual landscapes. Written by regional experts and replete with up-to-date information, stunning color imagery, and beautiful cartography (maps), it is the only comprehensive, scientific evaluation of the Lesser Antilles, and serves as the region’s definitive reference resource. Accessible to non-experts and amateur explorers, the book includes in-depth discussions and reference sections for each island/island set. Usable as both a textbook and guidebook, it offers readers a straightforward yet detailed assessment of an interesting and intriguing – but often-overlooked and under-appreciated – locale.

Book Synopsis Introduction to Montserrat by : Gilad James, PhD
Download or read book Introduction to Montserrat written by Gilad James, PhD and published by Gilad James Mystery School. This book was released on with total page 62 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Montserrat is a small island territory in the Caribbean that was first settled by the Arawak and Carib peoples. The island was later colonized by the British, who established sugar plantations and brought in enslaved Africans to work the land. Montserrat gained independence from Britain in 1962 and remains a British Overseas Territory today. The island's history is also marked by the devastating effects of natural disasters, including hurricanes and volcanic eruptions. In 1995, the island's Soufrière Hills volcano erupted, forcing the evacuation of most of the population and causing widespread damage. Despite these challenges, Montserrat has a rich cultural heritage and is known for its music, including the traditional music called "scratch" and the modern style of soca. The island also has a thriving tourism industry, attracting visitors with its natural beauty and history.
Download or read book Akhenaten written by Dominic Montserrat and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-05-01 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The pharaoh Akhenaten, who ruled Egypt in the mid-fourteenth century BCE, has been the subject of more speculation than any other character in Egyptian history. This provocative new biography examines both the real Akhenaten and the myths that have been created around him. It scrutinises the history of the pharaoh and his reign, which has been continually written in Eurocentric terms inapplicable to ancient Egypt, and the archaeology of Akhenaten's capital city, Amarna. It goes on to explore the pharaoh's extraordinary cultural afterlife, and the way he has been invoked to validate everything from psychoanalysis to racial equality to Fascism.

Book Synopsis Ms. Rubinstein's Beauty by : Pep Montserrat
Download or read book Ms. Rubinstein's Beauty written by Pep Montserrat and published by Sterling Publishing Company, Inc.. This book was released on 2006 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It’s a message we learn in childhood, but all too quickly forget: “Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.” “Beauty is only skin deep.” With its incandescent paintings and imaginative text, Ms. Rubinstein’s Beauty shows us just how true these timeless sayings can be. Children will be enchanted…and surprised at every turn. “Ms. Rubenstein is a beautiful woman. But nobody knows it.” No—they don’t notice her wonderful eyes, delicate hands, graceful feet, and kind heart. Something a little strange, a little distracting about her captures their attention instead. But one man—himself a bit out of the ordinary—thinks she’s the vision of loveliness. Pep Montserrat has created a gorgeous tribute to love that looks beyond the obvious—and a picture book as special as its two main characters.
