The Heartland
Author: Kristin L. Hoganson
Publisher:
ISBN: 1594203571
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 434
Book Description
In The Heartland, Kristin L. Hoganson drills deep into the centre of the country, only to find a global story in the resulting core sample. Deftly navigating the disconnect between history and myth, she tracks both the backstory of this region and the evolution of the idea of an unalloyed heart at the centre of the land. A provocative and highly original work of historical scholarship, The Heartland speaks volumes about pressing preoccupations, among them identity and community, immigration and trade, and security and global power.

The Book of the Otter: A manual for sportsmen and naturalists
Author: Richard Clapham
Publisher: Good Press
ISBN:
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 83
Book Description
Otter-hunting was a popular sport during the end of 19the century. Unfortunately, people knew very little of the otters and even less about hunting them. The author aimed to provide information on the science of hunting, or the creature's habits, to help everyone take part in this sport effectively. He wanted to help people learn by following his straightforward instructions. Even though otter hunting was banned during the earlier half of the 20th century, this book is still of historical importance. It helps get a clear idea of how enthusiastic the people were about hunting and what people's perception of this animal that they called "a great wanderer, a creature of the night." Contents include: Preface Introduction The Natural History of the Otter The Otter's Haunts and Habits Otter-hunting, Past and Present Hounds and Terriers Reminiscences Index
