1972 Flood in New York's Southern Tier
ISBN: 9781531650841 / Angielski / Twarda / 2012 / 130 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In June 1972, Hurricane Agnes hit the East Coast with a monstrous and devastating force, bringing a deluge across multiple states and slamming four counties in the Southern Tier: Steuben, Chemung, Tioga, and Broome.

The region is set in the dramatic countryside between the Finger Lakes and the Appalachian Mountains, home to the deep gorges of Stony Brook State Park.

Hornell is a musical city of community bands, high-school operettas, and barbershop quartets, and its famous...

ISBN: 9781531623005 / Angielski / Twarda / 2005 / 130 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The oldest names in aviation joined forces in 1929, when Wright Aeronautical and Curtiss Aeroplane formed the giant Curtiss-Wright Corporation.

Erwin and Painted Post are home to major facilities of Corning, Inc., formerly known as Corning Glass Works, a company that made a powerful impact on Erwin's history. In Erwin, folks poured steel, tried out the exotic 1920s military vehicle seen on the cover, and attended family Christmas parties at Ingersoll-Rand. Many of these photographs come from before those high-tech and heavy-industry days, when men rafted lumber down to Gang Mills and farmers relied on equipment that required more horses than men. Over 200 years, Painted Post folks erected four figures of Native Americans. They all...

Flying High: Pioneer Women in American Aviation
ISBN: 9781531606503 / Angielski / Twarda / 2002 / 130 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In the beginning of the twentieth century, women were
demanding more freedom. What could bring more freedom than a chance to fly? Women went up in those early wire-andfabric contraptions to gain independence, to make money, or to make their names as pilots. They sought to prove that women pilots could do just as well as men--and some did far better. Flying High: Pioneer Women in American Aviation tells the story of Blanche Stuart Scott, who made $5,000 a week and broke forty-one bones; of Harriet Quimby, who flew the English Channel handily and then fell to her death in five feet...

Bath serves as the welcoming, wide-open back door to the Finger Lakes.

Corning
ISBN: 9781531608934 / Angielski / Twarda / 2003 / 130 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Lenses for railroad lanterns, cut glass for the White House table, Thomas Edisons first light bulb-the glass for all of these was made in Corning, the glass capital of America, the Crystal City. From 1880 to World War I, newfound wealth sparked a spending and building boom that shaped the city.
