Book Synopsis Shelter from the Texas Heat by : Bobbi Kornblit
Download or read book Shelter from the Texas Heat written by Bobbi Kornblit and published by Createspace Independent Pub. This book was released on 2012-11-28 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Through laughter and tears, SHELTER FROM THE TEXAS HEAT tells the story of a woman's emotional journey on a road that could tragically lead to a dead end or to the highway of happiness. Compared in reviews to "The Help" and "Divine Secrets of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood," SHELTER FROM THE TEXAS HEAT is a novel about deep secrets and powerful friendships. Rachel Frank, a redheaded Texan, has it all: a happy marriage to a successful architect, a house on a prestigious street in North Dallas, and a daughter who's coed at The University of Texas at Austin. And then suddenly, Rachel's world turns upside down. She shares her adventures in life from the 1960s to the present with best friend P.J. Rutherford, the daughter of a Texas tycoon. They experience the horror of the assassination of JFK when they were girls in Dallas. Rachel's mother, Rosy Rosenshein Miller, tries to overcome the nightmare of her own past. She's one of those great "broads" with loads of spunk and a little too much red lipstick. The tale of three generations of women reflects the coming-of-age of its characters--and of America. From funny, turned disastrous moments at a glamorous birthday party at Neiman Marcus, to the painful memories of a Holocaust survivor, SHELTER FROM THE TEXAS HEAT takes the reader on an emotional roller coaster ride that even includes a stop at the State Fair of Texas. The setting is Texas, but the themes are universal. With wide interest in President John F. Kennedy during this 50th anniversary of the assassination in 1963, this book provides a look at the tragic event from a child's perspective and the aftermath on a family. Awards: Winner of the 2013 Multicultural-Fiction category for the National Indie Excellence Awards and Best Book for Women's Fiction in the 2012 NABE Pinnacle Book Achievement Awards. The "Night Flight" chapter won First Place in the Woodlands Writers' Guild Texas Cliffhanger Award. www.facebook.com/Shelter.from.the.Texas.Heat and www.ShelterfromtheTexasHeat.com

Book Synopsis The Best in Tent Camping: Texas by : Wendel Withrow
Download or read book The Best in Tent Camping: Texas written by Wendel Withrow and published by Menasha Ridge Press. This book was released on 2010-05-10 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As with all books in this series, the campgrounds selected for The Best in Tent Camping: Texas had to meet three criteria: they had to be accessible by car but not overrun with RVs; offer great scenery; and be as close as possible to a wilderness experience. Texas, with its extraordinary diversity of ecosystems, made author Wendel Withrow's search an exciting one. Divided into the state's major geographical areas, the book is based on the author's 30 years' experience in following the back roads of Texas. Along with a detailed profile and useful at-a-glance information, clear maps show campground layout, individual sites, and key facilities. Driving directions supplemented with GPS-based coordinates for each campground entrance make getting there a snap. Regional maps and a profile numbering system make the book easy to use and enjoy.

Book Synopsis North American Agroforestry by : Harold E. Gene Garrett
Download or read book North American Agroforestry written by Harold E. Gene Garrett and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2022-02-23 with total page 580 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: North American Agroforestry Explore the many benefits of alternative land-use systems with this incisive resource Humanity has become a victim of its own success. While we’ve managed to meet the needs—to one extent or another—of a large portion of the human population, we’ve often done so by ignoring the health of the natural environment we rely on to sustain our planet. And by deteriorating the quality of our air, water, and land, we’ve put into motion consequences we’ll be dealing with for generations. In the newly revised Third Edition of North American Agroforestry, an expert team of researchers delivers an authoritative and insightful exploration of an alternative land-use system that exploits the positive interactions between trees and crops when they are grown together and bridges the gap between production agriculture and natural resource management. This latest edition includes new material on urban food forests, as well as the air and soil quality benefits of agroforestry, agroforestry’s relevance in the Mexican context, and agroforestry training and education. The book also offers: A thorough introduction to the development of agroforestry as an integrated land use management strategy Comprehensive explorations of agroforestry nomenclature, concepts, and practices, as well as an agroecological foundation for temperate agroforestry Practical discussions of tree-crop interactions in temperate agroforestry, including in systems such as windbreak practices, silvopasture practices, and alley cropping practices In-depth examinations of vegetative environmental buffers for air and water quality benefits, agroforestry for wildlife habitat, agroforestry at the landscape level, and the impact of agroforestry on soil health Perfect for environmental scientists, natural resource professionals and ecologists, North American Agroforestry will also earn a place in the libraries of students and scholars of agricultural sciences interested in the potential benefits of agroforestry.

Book Synopsis Surviving the Grand Solar Minimum by : Dennis DeLaurier
Download or read book Surviving the Grand Solar Minimum written by Dennis DeLaurier and published by Dennis DeLaurier. This book was released on 2024-03-24 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Welcome Be Prepared – Boy Scouts Things will always work out even when they don’t! - Author Hello and welcome to the Grand Solar Minimum. While you may be wondering just what a Grand Solar Minimum is, you may not know that you are living in it now. According to John Casey, a NASA Space Shuttle Engineer, it started in 20019. While you may not have been shoveling 40-foot drifts of snow at your location, things will pick up at the end of the 2024 - 2025 winter. You may or may not know that the sun goes through a cycle every 11 or so years. The sun also goes through other cycles of around 200, 400, and even 3600 years. During these cycles, sunspot activity decreases and at the end of the cycle starts creating sunspots again. The number of sunspots during a cycle can be correlated to the activity of the sun and the amount of energy (solar irradiance or SI) directed toward the Earth. The weaker the cycle (fewer sunspots) the colder the earth seems to get during these periods. While this book is about surviving the (Super) Grand Solar Minimum and things like food loss, breakdown of society, and bitter cold it is important to understand what is happening and the causes. If someone on the street yelled out "The world is ending", you would probably just laugh and go on your way. I can understand that you may be skeptical at this point. I certainly was until I looked at the information and data. This book will cover what the data and cycles look like and why George Washington took his army across the frozen Delaware River to attack the British. If it's winter and you check that river now you will note that it is not frozen at all. But why?
