Download or read book The Ozarks written by Milton D. Rafferty and published by University of Arkansas Press. This book was released on 2001-01-01 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Ozark Mountains reach into Missouri, Arkansas, Oklahoma, and Kansas, forming a region with great natural beauty and a distinctive cultural and historical landscape. This comprehensive volume, a fully updated edition of a beloved classic, reaches into history, anthropology, economics, and geography to explore the complex relationships between the Ozarks' people and land through times of profound change. Drawing on more than thirty years of research, field observations, and interviews, Rafferty examines this subject matter through a range of topics: the settlement patterns and material cultures of Native Americans, French, Scotch-Irish, Germans, Italians, African Americans, Hispanics, and Asians in the region; population growth; the guerrilla warfare and battles of the Civil War; the cultural transformations wrought by railroads, roads, mass media, and modern communication systems; the discovery, development, and decline of the great mining districts; the various forms of agriculture and the felling of the region's vast forests; and the built landscape, from log cabins to Victorian mansions to strip malls. This new edition also explores the new and potent forces which have reshaped the region over the last twenty years: tourism and the growing service industry, suburbanization, rapid population growth and retirement living, and agribusiness. Lavishly illustrated with historic and contemporary photographs, maps, and charts."--Publisher's description.

Book Synopsis Life, Leisure and Hardship Along the Buffalo by : Theodore Catton
Download or read book Life, Leisure and Hardship Along the Buffalo written by Theodore Catton and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2015-04-12 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a region of winding rivers and streams, the Buffalo River cuts one of the most tortuous paths of all. Deeply entrenched in the Ozark plateau, looping back and forth between sheer rock bluffs and densely forested hillsides, it meanders for !50 miles across a straight-line distance of less than 60 miles, from the Boston Mountains in northwest Arkansas to its confluence with the White River in north central Arkansas. Along its course it is fed by numerous tributaries. Navigable only by skiff or canoe through most of the summer and fall, the Buffalo River runs fast and high in late winter and spring and turns into a raging torrent after a rainstorm at any time of year. In places the valley broadens out and is filled by rich alluvial soil. Buffalo National River was authorized by Congress in 1972 for the purpose of preserving this scenic river in a free-flowing condition. The boundaries of Buffalo National River hew fairly close to the river valley. Exceptions include two tributary drainages of Cecil Cove and Richland Valley and some extensive uplands on the upper and lower river that are contained in the Ponca and Lower Buffalo Wilderness Areas respectively. The land base includes about 2,000 acres that were incorporated from two former state parks and about 2,000 acres that were transferred from the adjoining Ozark National Forest in addition to some 90,000 acres of former private holdings, which includes 5,000 acres in private ownership under conservation easements. Within this spaghetti-shaped park is found an abundance of historic resources. A substantial portion are houses, barns, and other farm outbuildings, reflecting the agricultural heritage of the area. Among dozens of country churches and schools that once dotted the valley, the Erbie Church and Cold Springs School are two that survive in good condition. Approximately half of the listed structures are part of a historic district in Boxley Valley. Another large grouping is associated with the rural community of Erbie. Many historic structures are ensconced in woods and are seldom seen by park visitors. Others are highly visible and amply interpreted. Perhaps the most outstanding historic resource in the national river is the Parker-Hickman Farmstead, which dates to before the Civil War. Buffalo National River contains abundant historic resources that relate to other historic themes besides the area's agricultural heritage. The Rush Historic District includes dozens of mine and mill ruins, standing structures, and landscape elements that reflect the area's mining history. During its heyday around 1915 the area had a working population in the thousands of people; today visitors can walk an interpretive trail past ruins and a few remaining standing structures that evoke images of that earlier time. Another notable historic resource is the complex of buildings associated with the former Buffalo River State Park. These buildings were mostly built by the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) and the complex is a fine example of government rustic architecture and state park planning from the CCC era. Other historic resources found in the park include cemeteries, foundations, and the remains of old roads, ferry crossings, and additional mine workings. The National Park Service's List of Classified Structures (LCS), updated for Buffalo National River in 2006, lists a total of 290 historic buildings and structures. Of these, 210 are listed on the National Register of Historic Places (either individually or as contributing elements in historic districts) and 64 have been determined eligible for listing. Another four are categorized as "ineligible- managed as resource."

Book Synopsis Hoosiers and the American Story by : Madison, James H.
Download or read book Hoosiers and the American Story written by Madison, James H. and published by Indiana Historical Society. This book was released on 2014-10 with total page 359 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A supplemental textbook for middle and high school students, Hoosiers and the American Story provides intimate views of individuals and places in Indiana set within themes from American history. During the frontier days when Americans battled with and exiled native peoples from the East, Indiana was on the leading edge of America’s westward expansion. As waves of immigrants swept across the Appalachians and eastern waterways, Indiana became established as both a crossroads and as a vital part of Middle America. Indiana’s stories illuminate the history of American agriculture, wars, industrialization, ethnic conflicts, technological improvements, political battles, transportation networks, economic shifts, social welfare initiatives, and more. In so doing, they elucidate large national issues so that students can relate personally to the ideas and events that comprise American history. At the same time, the stories shed light on what it means to be a Hoosier, today and in the past.

Book Synopsis Learning to Think Spatially by : National Research Council
Download or read book Learning to Think Spatially written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2005-02-03 with total page 333 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Learning to Think Spatially examines how spatial thinking might be incorporated into existing standards-based instruction across the school curriculum. Spatial thinking must be recognized as a fundamental part of Kâ€"12 education and as an integrator and a facilitator for problem solving across the curriculum. With advances in computing technologies and the increasing availability of geospatial data, spatial thinking will play a significant role in the information-based economy of the twenty-first century. Using appropriately designed support systems tailored to the Kâ€"12 context, spatial thinking can be taught formally to all students. A geographic information system (GIS) offers one example of a high-technology support system that can enable students and teachers to practice and apply spatial thinking in many areas of the curriculum.
Book Synopsis Creating the National Park Service by : Horace M. Albright
Download or read book Creating the National Park Service written by Horace M. Albright and published by University of Oklahoma Press. This book was released on 1999 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two men played a crucial role in the creation and early history of the National Park Service: Stephen T. Mather, a public relations genius of sweeping vision, and Horace M. Albright, an able lawyer and administrator who helped transform that vision into reality. In Creating the National Park Service, Albright and his daughter, Marian Albright Schenck, reveal the previously untold story of the critical "missing years" in the history of the service. During this period, 1917 and 1918, Mather's problems with manic depression were kept hidden from public view, and Albright, his able and devoted assistant, served as acting director and assumed Mather's responsibilities. Albright played a decisive part in the passage of the National Park Service Organic Act of 1916; the formulation of principles and policies for management of the parks; the defense of the parks against exploitation by ranchers, lumber companies, and mining interests during World War I; and other issues crucial to the future of the fledgling park system. This authoritative behind-the-scenes history sheds light on the early days of the most popular of all federal agencies while painting a vivid picture of American life in the early twentieth century.
