An environmental History of California during the Gold Rush Between 1849 and 1874 almost $1 billion in gold was mined in California. With little available capital or labor, here's how: high-pressure water cannons washed hillsides into sluices that used mercury to trap gold but let the soil wash away; eventually more than three times the amount of earth moved to make way for the Panama Canal entered California's rivers, leaving behind twenty tons of mercury every mile--rivers overflowed their banks and valleys were flooded, the land poisoned. In the rush to wealth, the same... An environmental History of California during the Gold Rush Between 1849 and 1874 almost $1 billion in gold was mined in California. ... |

ISBN: 9780890962169 / Angielski / Miękka / 1985 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Michael Isenberg casts aside the traditional textbook approach and presents the study of history as a series of puzzles to ponder, with neither right nor wrong answers. Thinking about history, from this point of view, becomes an exciting intellectual adventure that has little to do with rote memorization.

Isenberg offers a compelling invitation to "greet the subject and call it fun" by delving into different cultures and by... Michael Isenberg casts aside the traditional textbook approach and presents the study of history as a series of puzzles to ponder, with neither right ...

Sex and Citizenship in Antebellum America
ISBN: 9780807847466 / Angielski / Miękka / 1998 / 344 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. With this book, Nancy Isenberg illuminates the origins of the women's rights movement. Rather than herald the singular achievements of the 1848 Seneca Falls convention, she examines the confluence of events and ideas--before and after 1848--that, in her view, marked the real birth of feminism. Drawing on a wide range of sources, she demonstrates that women's rights activists of the antebellum era crafted a coherent feminist critique of church, state, and family. In addition, Isenberg shows, they developed a rich theoretical tradition that influenced not only subsequent strains of feminist...
