Historic Photos of Seattle in the 50s, 60s, and 70s
Author:
Publisher: Turner Publishing Company
ISBN: 1618584286
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 335
Book Description
History is more than dates and events. History is images often as mundane as a shopper buying vegetables or a lost view of a neighborhood transformed by development. In the three decades following the midcentury mark, Seattle photographers captured the city day-to-day, to have their exposures published once, or not at all, and then relegated to the darkness of an archive. Historic Photos of Seattle in the 50s, 60s, and 70s compiles photos that recover some of the memories. Mary Randlett and Josef Scaylea are widely known and highly regarded for their work with light and film, and their work appears here. For some photos, the names of city employees and other professionals of lesser note, but no less skill, can be credited. And for many, the photographer’s name is lost to time, but his work endures.

Cold War University
Author: Matthew Levin
Publisher: University of Wisconsin Pres
ISBN: 0299292835
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 235
Book Description
As the Cold War between the United States and the Soviet Union escalated in the 1950s and 1960s, the federal government directed billions of dollars to American universities to promote higher enrollments, studies of foreign languages and cultures, and, especially, scientific research. In Cold War University, Matthew Levin traces the paradox that developed: higher education became increasingly enmeshed in the Cold War struggle even as university campuses became centers of opposition to Cold War policies. The partnerships between the federal government and major research universities sparked a campus backlash that provided the foundation, Levin argues, for much of the student dissent that followed. At the University of Wisconsin in Madison, one of the hubs of student political activism in the 1950s and 1960s, the protests reached their flashpoint with the 1967 demonstrations against campus recruiters from Dow Chemical, the manufacturers of napalm. Levin documents the development of student political organizations in Madison in the 1950s and the emergence of a mass movement in the decade that followed, adding texture to the history of national youth protests of the time. He shows how the University of Wisconsin tolerated political dissent even at the height of McCarthyism, an era named for Wisconsin's own virulently anti-Communist senator, and charts the emergence of an intellectual community of students and professors that encouraged new directions in radical politics. Some of the events in Madison—especially the 1966 draft protests, the 1967 sit-in against Dow Chemical, and the 1970 Sterling Hall bombing—have become part of the fabric of "The Sixties," touchstones in an era that continues to resonate in contemporary culture and politics.

My Life on a Plate

Publisher: Independently Published
ISBN:
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 114
Book Description
When I was a kid, I grew up in a community called Spillcorn, a small community in Marshall, North Carolina. Most people who lived there were poor Appalachian people, and a majority of them were farmers. Most of the food we ate was raised, planted, or gathered on my grandparents' farm. My family lived in a small three-room house that had a kitchen, living room, and a bedroom. My grandmother lived not far away from us on a 55-acre farm where she raised livestock. She also had gardens, fruit trees, and honeybees. These recipes that I have gathered together are made up of things that we raised on that farm. They are some of my favorite recipes. I hope they bring you as much enjoyment as they did my family. This recipe book is dedicated to two very strong women who were a great inspiration to me as I was growing up. They are my Grandmother Stella Gosnell Norton and Anna Mae Norton Robinson. Two women that I love and miss very much.

Hoosiers and the American Story
Author: Madison, James H.
Publisher: Indiana Historical Society
ISBN: 0871953633
Category : Juvenile Nonfiction
Languages : en
Pages : 359
Book Description
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.
