This is a volume of poetry which will appeal to lovers of both simple poetry and poetry of depth and complexity. Craddock writes nature beginning his volume of verse with simple short poems, laced with poetry exploring nature, then extends into human interaction with nature and aspects of human nature probed in contemporary and historical context. Craddock has revisited themes of nature, time, cosmic consciousness, which he explores and pursed in Eagles Soar On High Thermals, while extending ideas found in the esteemed volume of poetry, Leaves of Grass, by Walt Witman into contempory scientific discoveries. Craddock has weaved links in nature crossing between nature and the natural world and the nature of society, descending down through various cultures countries and societies. Brushstroke echoes of William Wordsworth, Edgar Allan Poe and Sylvia Plath will intermix the beauty of nature with romantic or current issues including pollution, global warming and land rape of prestine wilderness areas. A gothic tribute to Poe's poem annabel Lee is made with a Scottish highland twist. A must read for inquisitive minds desiring to pursue poetic expression, thoughs engaging with insights into enduring mysteries of life and nature.

Ghosts of the Fireground
Author: Peter M Leschak
Publisher: Open Road Media
ISBN: 1504055934
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 246
Book Description
In October 1871, a massive forest fire incinerated the town of Peshtigo, Wisconsin. It was the deadliest fire in North American history, an event so intense that its release of energy was not approximated until the advent of thermo-nuclear weapons. At least 1,200 people perished—some in bizarre and disturbing ways—and the actual number of fatalities is unknown, perhaps as many as 1,500 were lost. Since the Great Chicago Fire occurred at the same time, Peshtigo was overshadowed and almost forgotten. In 2000, veteran wild-land firefighter Peter Leschak was faced with a hot and challenging fire season, tasked with the leadership of a helitack crew—an airborne fire team expected to be the “tip of the spear” on wildfire initial attacks. During that long summer he studied Father Peter Pernon’s eyewitness account of the Pehstigo holocaust, and using his knowledge and experience as a firefighter, Leschak placed himself in Pernin’s shoes, as much as possible being transported to the firestorm of 1871. Ghosts of the Fireground tells both tales: the horrific saga of Peshtigo, and the modern battles of a wildfire helicopter crew, seamlessly intertwining the stories to enhance them both.

Encyclopedia of American Short Films, 1926-1959
Author: Graham Webb
Publisher: McFarland
ISBN: 1476639264
Category : Performing Arts
Languages : en
Pages : 735
Book Description
Short subject films have a long history in American cinemas. These could be anywhere from 2 to 40 minutes long and were used as a "filler" in a picture show that would include a cartoon, a newsreel, possibly a serial and a short before launching into the feature film. Shorts could tackle any topic of interest: an unusual travelogue, a comedy, musical revues, sports, nature or popular vaudeville acts. With the advent of sound-on-film in the mid-to-late 1920s, makers of earlier silent short subjects began experimenting with the short films, using them as a testing ground for the use of sound in feature movies. After the Second World War, and the rising popularity of television, short subject films became far too expensive to produce and they had mostly disappeared from the screens by the late 1950s. This encyclopedia offers comprehensive listings of American short subject films from the 1920s through the 1950s.
