The History of Human Populations
Author: P. M. G. Harris
Publisher: Praeger
ISBN:
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 472
Book Description
Harris (emeritus, history, Temple U.) argues that previous interpretations have misunderstood the historical trends of human population growth and decline, therefore failing to grasp the causes and consequences of recurring patterns. In an effort to provide a simpler, more accurate and insightful way to generalize and understand these trends, he presents new models for depicting, connecting and understanding three forms of expansion. These models are then applied to specific populations in the U.S. from 1607 to the 1990s, and to other northern European colonizations around the world. He also examines growth and decline in South and Middle America, regions of European countries, Japan, and China. The text concludes with a discussion of local populations, including the growth of cities and urban populations, as well as smaller populations such as towns, villages, and hamlets. This is volume 1, but it's not clear how many volumes are planned. Annotation copyrighted by Book News Inc., Portland, OR.

A Modest Homestead
Author: Laurie J. Bryant
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781607815266
Category : HISTORY
Languages : en
Pages : 295
Book Description
Copublished with the Utah State Historical Society. Affiliated with the Utah Division of State History, Utah Department of Heritage & Arts. Stories of the ordinary people who helped build Salt Lake City emerge from a study of their often humble adobe houses. Rather than focusing on men and women in positions of power and influence, the emphasis here is on the lives of people who built their sturdy, simple homes from mud. A Modest Homestead provides architectural descriptions of ninety-four extant adobe houses. These homes are for the most part unremarkable, except for their perhaps unexpected construction material. They are as basic as the people who built them--small tradesmen and farmers, laborers and domestics. Author Laurie Bryant discusses the neighborhoods in Salt Lake City where adobe houses have survived, often much renovated and disguised, and she showcases the houses not just as they appear today but as they were originally built. Almost all the houses now have additions and improvements, and without some dissection, they are not always recognizable. They now appear both comfortable and pleasant, which was not always the case in the nineteenth century. What emerges through closer examination and Bryant's research is a fuller picture of the roughhewn life of many early Utahns.
