Book Description
The development of the Rock Eagle 4-H Center is one of Georgia's most cherished stories. During the early 1950's, hardly a person in the state did not know what was happening in Putnam County. Within these pages is the story of a land that experienced battles, heartbreak, devastation and eventual emergence into its intended destiny. There is the story of an evolving Cooperative Extension Service and the dream of many for a place where Georgia's 4-H'ers could congregate, camp and call home. Almost 900 photographs lead the reader through a comprehensive history of the Rock Eagle 4-H Center, detailing how the land became available, who invested in the facilities, when improvements were made, and where the Rock Eagle 4-H Center is headed. For those who want to learn about a camping program that has captured the imagination of campers across six decades, the fundamentals are included. For those readers who are new to Rock Eagle, we welcome you. For others, we hope you enjoy your return to the Rock."I am so appreciative to Ina Cook Hopkins for authoring this book, and for the enormous work that she did in researching each chapter. I am fully convinced that Ina has written the most accurate account of Rock Eagle and its history that could have possibly been done. I don't know how many dozens, if not hundreds, of people that she interviewed or how many thousands of pages that she read, but I know from personal experience that she leaves no stone unturned in her search for accuracy."

Eagle Rock
Author: Eric H. Warren
Publisher: Arcadia Publishing
ISBN: 9780738582160
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 132
Book Description
Eagle Rock has grown from an open farming community, populated by a few hundred souls, into a busy and diverse neighborhood of Los Angeles. The incorporation of Eagle Rock City in 1911 began the political process necessary to sustain and service this expanding community. The Eagle Rock City that was annexed by Los Angeles in 1923 was much smaller than the area included by the City of Los Angeles in the Eagle Rock Neighborhood Council in 2002. The town grew through the century by attracting the loyalty of people living in then-outlying areas. Eagle Rock: 1911-2011 continues the exploration begun in the Images of America volume, Eagle Rock, detailing this expansion and the community's everyday life and interaction with the city and the world.

*A Kirkus Reviews Best Book of 2018!* All Summer Long, a coming-of-age middle-grade graphic novel about summer and friendships, written and illustrated by the Eisner Award–winning and New York Times–bestselling Hope Larson. Thirteen-year-old Bina has a long summer ahead of her. She and her best friend, Austin, usually do everything together, but he's off to soccer camp for a month, and he's been acting kind of weird lately anyway. So it's up to Bina to see how much fun she can have on her own. At first it's a lot of guitar playing, boredom, and bad TV, but things look up when she finds an unlikely companion in Austin's older sister, who enjoys music just as much as Bina. But then Austin comes home from camp, and he's acting even weirder than when he left. How Bina and Austin rise above their growing pains and reestablish their friendship and respect for their differences makes for a touching and funny coming-of-age story.
