When Money Grew on Trees
Author: Greg Gordon
Publisher: University of Oklahoma Press
ISBN: 0806145471
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 611
Book Description
Born in the timber colony of New Brunswick, Maine, in 1848, Andrew Benoni Hammond got off to an inauspicious start as a teenage lumberjack. By his death in 1934, Hammond had built an empire of wood that stretched from Puget Sound to Arizona—and in the process had reshaped the American West and the nation’s way of doing business. When Money Grew on Trees follows Hammond from the rough-and-tumble world of mid-nineteenth-century New Brunswick to frontier Montana and the forests of Northern California—from lowly lumberjack to unrivaled timber baron. Although he began his career as a pioneer entrepreneur, Hammond, unlike many of his associates, successfully negotiated the transition to corporate businessman. Against the backdrop of western expansion and nation-building, his life dramatically demonstrates how individuals—more than the impersonal forces of political economy—shaped capitalism in this country, and in doing so, transformed the forests of the West from functioning natural ecosystems into industrial landscapes. In revealing Hammond’s instrumental role in converting the nation’s public domain into private wealth, historian Greg Gordon also shows how the struggle over natural resources gave rise to the two most pervasive forces in modern American life: the federal government and the modern corporation. Combining environmental, labor, and business history with biography, When Money Grew on Trees challenges the conventional view that the development and exploitation of the western United States was dictated from the East Coast. The West, Gordon suggests, was perfectly capable of exploiting itself, and in his book we see how Hammond and other regional entrepreneurs dammed rivers, logged forests, and leveled mountains in just a few decades. Hammond and his like also built cities, towns, and a vast transportation network of steamships and railroads to export natural resources and import manufactured goods. In short, they established much of the modern American state and economy.

ISBN:
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 44
Book Description
This report forms the introduction to a resource description and analysis of Fundy National Park. It proposes to place the management of the park in context for both researchers unfamiliar with the park and the region and for Parks Canada staff in search of background material on the park's natural resources. It reviews the goals of national parks in general and the Fundy park in particular; the degree of ecological integrity existing in the park; ecosystem management objectives; links between the park and partnerships in south-eastern New Brunswick (the Greater Fundy Ecosystem and the Fundy Model Forest), along with how they hope to benefit; and park and ecosystem management plans.
