If you have an interest in what war was like to a 20-year-old in the Infantry, Nudge Blue comes close to describing that experience. The combat portion of this story was written directly from notes accumulated during the...

Westward Vision: The Story of the Oregon Trail
ISBN: 9780803279155 / Angielski / Miękka / 1985 / 425 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. "In one very real sense," David Lavender writes, "the story of the Oregon Trail begins with Columbus." This opening suggests the panoramic sweep of his history of that famous trail. In chiseled, colorful prose, Lavender illustrates the "westward vision" that impelled the early explorers of the American interior looking for a northwest passage and send fur trappers into the region charted by Lewis and Clark. For the emigrants following the trappers' routes, that vision gradually grew into a sense of a manifest American destiny. Lavender describes the efforts of emigration societies, of...

The Way to the Western Sea: Lewis and Clark Across the Continent
ISBN: 9780803280038 / Angielski / Miękka / 2001 / 444 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Critics have called David Lavender a "master storyteller" (Library Journal), his prose "virile, disciplined, yet personal" (New York Times), and his book "a balanced, learned, and lively history of an epochal human exploit" (Choice). Lavender sets the stage with a lucid account of the imperial rivalries between England, Spain, France, and the United States, and their role in Thomas Jefferson's decision to sponsor an expedition that might strengthen the young country's claims to lands it had purchased but never seen. Lavender then takes us through the steps that led to the selection of...

ISBN: 9783836434782 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 172 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Teaching reading needs to incorporate a multimodal approach. People today are more graphically bombarded than any other generation. Children expect images in every experience.

Land of Giants: The Drive to the Pacific Northwest, 1750-1950
ISBN: 9780803279056 / Angielski / Miękka / 1979 / 483 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The exploration and conquest of the Pacific Northwest is the dominant theme of Land of Giants, a book which (in the words of William O. Douglas) "gives one a sense of participation in moulding the manifest destiny of America." English and Spanish seadogs seeking a northwest passage to the Orient were the first comers; then, following Bering's explorations, Russian fur traders descended on the Aleutians. In turn, the Lewis and Clark expedition, the activities of the great fur companies, and "Oregon fever" spurred on overland traffic westward; and as gold silver, and copper drew thousands more...

Fist in the Wilderness
ISBN: 9780803279766 / Angielski / Miękka / 1998 / 498 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The story of the American fur trade has been told many times from different viewpoints, but David Lavender was the first to place it within the overall contest for empire between Britain and the United States. Rather than offering a simple hagiography of men like Jedediah Smith, Kit Carson, Jim Bridger and other legendary trappers, Lavender relates the story of men such as John Jacob Astor and Ramsay Crooks who competed with Britain's Hudson's Bay Company for the fur resources of the Great Lakes region and the upper Missouri River country. Within this framework of contest and competition,...

California: Land of New Beginnings
ISBN: 9780803279247 / Angielski / Miękka / 1987 / 480 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. From the earliest Spanish explorations in the late 1500s through the present, California's history and growth have been both tumultuous and phenomenal. All the historical facts are here: the missions and the Indians, the struggles between the Mexicans and the Americans, the fabulous gold rushes, statehood in 1850, railroad wars, furious labor upheavals, the disastrous scandals and bankruptcies of the 1920s, and the recent gigantic tamperings with nature. David Lavender tells, with unusual clarity and grace, the story of a beautiful state's rise to giganticism. In an afterword to this Bison...

ISBN: 9781491760567 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 170 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Most families have their share of stories and folklore. In the case of author Billy Boyd Lavender, one of the most intriguing of these stories revolves around a murder mystery from 1905-the deaths of two of his ancestors and the mob lynching that soon followed those deaths. Told from information provided by Lavender's mother, Ruby Neal Hardigree Lavender, and with support from historical documentation, Honorable Heritage recalls events that occurred on a forty-one-acre tract of land in Watkinsville, Georgia, that would become the farm where Lavender grew up. There, his... Most families have their share of stories and folklore. In the case of author Billy Boyd Lavender, one of the most intriguing of these stories revo... |

In Let Me Be Free, David Lavender tells the tragic story of the Nez Perce struggle against annihilation.
