Book Synopsis Exploring the Edges of Texas by : Walt Davis
Download or read book Exploring the Edges of Texas written by Walt Davis and published by Texas A&M University Press. This book was released on 2010-01-18 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1955, Frank X. Tolbert, a well-known columnist for the Dallas Morning News, circumnavigated Texas with his nine-year-old-son in a Willis Jeep. The column he phoned in to the newspaper about his adventures, "Tolbert's Texas," was a staple of Walt Davis's childhood. Fifty years later, Walt and his wife, Isabel, have re-explored portions of Tolbert’s trek along the boundaries of Texas. The border of Texas is longer than the Amazon River, running through ten distinct ecological zones as it outlines one of the most familiar shapes in geography. According to the Davises, "Driving its every twist and turn would be like driving from Miami to Los Angeles by way of New York." Each of this book’s sixteen chapters opens with an original drawing by Walt, representing a segment of the Texas border where the authors selected a special place—a national park, a stretch of river, a mountain range, or an archeological site. Using a firsthand account of that place written by a previous visitor (artist, explorer, naturalist, or archeologist), they then identified a contemporary voice (whether biologist, rancher, river-runner, or paleontologist) to serve as a modern-day guide for their journey of rediscovery. This dual perspective allows the authors to attach personal stories to the places they visited, to connect the past with the present, and to compare Texas then with Texas now. Whether retracing botanist Charles Wright's 600-mile walk to El Paso in 1849 or paddling Houston's Buffalo Bayou, where John James Audubon saw ivory-billed woodpeckers in 1837, the Davises seek to remind readers that passionate and determined people wrote the state's natural history. Anyone interested in Texas or its rich natural heritage will find deep enjoyment in Exploring the Edges of Texas. Publication of this book is generously supported by a memorial gift in honor of Mary Frances "Chan" Driscoll, a founding member of the Advisory Council of Texas A&M University Press, by her sons Henry B. Paup '70 and T. Edgar Paup '74.

Download or read book Edge of Safety written by Neal Pollack and published by Bombardier Books. This book was released on 2022-06-30 with total page 173 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “The arrival of any new Neal Pollack book—especially a novel!—is cause for celebration. When it's a satire about safetyism, COVID-19 lockdowns, and Canadian exceptionalism, it’s cause for something like a mix of Mardi Gras, Burning Man, and the Gathering of the Juggalos. Pollack’s signature wit, meanness, and compassion is all on brilliant, post-pot-addiction display here at a time when we need it more than ever.” –Nick Gillespie, host, The Reason Interview with Nick Gillespie. “I’ve loved Neal Pollack's work for twenty years now. While I have numerous and serious problems with Canada, as everyone knows, I must insist that you buy and read this book. I loved it from start to finish, and so will you.” —Mike Sacks, Poking a Dead Frog, Stinker Lets Loose, Passing on the Right Amelia Stewart loves staying home. When the Canadian Health Ministry, where she works as a mid-level functionary, issues a #stayhome order, she and her dog Little Miss Daisy comply with enthusiasm, obeying government orders and watching their favorite soap opera, Edge of Safety. But during one such Stay Home order, Amelia accidentally finds herself trapped outside. Much to her surprise, she doesn’t immediately die. But she does run afoul of a ragtag resistance movement that gradually persuades her that the world is not what she thinks. They take her on an adventure that she never imagined or wanted. As Amelia’s knowledge of the outside world grows, she has to make a choice about Canada’s future.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Edges of Books examines a familiar form from an unfamiliar perspective.

These are the familiar parts of the books--the parts that modern readers have come to interact with the most. Edges of Books takes a different approach, uncovering a tradition that extends back centuries in which the edges of books were important sites for information and decoration. This is a catalog of an exhibition of the same name at the Cary Collection.

Download or read book Life On The Edge written by Michael Gross and published by Basic Books. This book was released on 2008-01-03 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Can life exist in the Antarctic ice, in the deep subsurface, in dilute sulfuric acid, in hot springs-even on Mars? What degree of high or low temperature, pressure, or salt concentration can living cells tolerate? In recent years, scientists have discovered many single-cell creatures that exist in-in fact, are perfectly adapted to-extreme environments that were considered uninhabitable just one or two decades ago. In Life on the Edge, author Michael Gross explores how microorganisms adapt to their hostile environments and how they affect our current definition of the "normal" conditions for life. He also describes the vast implications of these extremophiles and other amazing creatures-from potential breakthroughs in medicine and biotechnology to the search for life elsewhere in the universe.
