Tells the story of Poughkeepsie’s transformation from small city to urban region.The history of growth, decline, and revitalization in Poughkeepsie, New York, parallels that of many other small northeastern cities. Main Street to Mainframes tells the story of Poughkeepsie’s transformation over the past three centuries―from an agricultural market town, to a small city with a diversified economy centered on Main Street, to an urban region dependent on the success of one corporation―and how this transformation has affected the lives and landscape of its inhabitants. As it adjusted to major changes in agriculture, transportation, and industry, Poughkeepsie was also shaped by the forces and tensions of immigration and race. The voices of immigrant and migrant newcomers, from the Germans, Irish, and African Americans of the nineteenth century to the Italians, Poles, and Latinos of the twentieth, enliven the narrative and offer personal perspectives on the social and demographic shifts that have taken place over the years. The book also places Poughkeepsie in the context of the mid–Hudson Valley’s other cities―Kingston, Newburgh, and Hudson―as they competed from the colonial period onward. Finally, the book examines recent revitalization efforts based on tourism, culture, and the arts. More than just a local history, Main Street to Mainframes addresses important issues in urban and regional planning, community development, and sociology. Like a palimpsest, Poughkeepsie shows how past landscapes live on in the present, and how, over time, popular perceptions both shape and reflect urban and rural realities.

Relates the physical and geometric elegance of geologic structures within the Earth's crust and the ways in which these structures reflect the nature and origin of crystal deformation through time. The main thrust is on applications in regional tectonics, exploration geology, active tectonics and geohydrology. Techniques, experiments, and calculations are described in detail, with the purpose of offering active participation and discovery through laboratory and field work.

Excerpt from Glaciation of the Puget Sound Region The name Puget Sound was originally given by Vancouver to that portion of these inland arms of the sea which lies south of the Narrows near Tacoma. Vancouver distinguished two other main portions of these inlets; Hoods Canal and Admiralty Inlet. His usage was respected by Wilkes of the United States Exploring Expedition a half century later, but today the term Puget Sound embraces all three portions and is ftc quently used to include all marine waters connected with the Strait of J uan de F uca south of the International boundary line. In this broad sense it is used in the title of this paper. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Regions on the Run, produced by Biblical Backgrounds, presents regions, routes and economic strategies in the land's three main arenas and illustrates these through historical events. The book is laid out in two-page spreads addressing the following topics: Pages 6-9 (two introductory spreads) discuss the land of the Bible as a 'Land Between' the physical forces of sea and desert, wet and dry and the powerful centers of Egypt and Aram (northwestern Mesopotamia) and also set the land's story within the shadow of the Imperial Highways that linked Egypt with Aram. Pages 10-15 (three colorful spreads) present the land's well-watered and heavily traveled Northern Arena with its major battlefields surrounded by Phoenicia, Damascus and the northern kingdom of Israel. Pages 16-21 (three more spreads) present the land's arid and more difficult Southern Arena, which hosted major trade routes disputed by Edom, the land of the Philistines and the southern kingdom of Judah. Pages 22-29 (four spreads) examine the land's strategic Central Arena as the battlefield of the Central Hill Country and Jerusalem. Gateways in and out of this arena make it the focal point of biblical history. Pages 30-41 (one spread) provide a lucid summary of history from the time of Isaiah to the days of Jesus; a parallel outline of the four Gospels with regional color-coding; and Bible history set graphically in three historical charts.

In 1937, Grant Wood was asked to illustrate a novel that, like his painting American Gothic, had already become a classic: Sinclair Lewis s Main Street. Published nearly twenty years earlier in 1920, Lewis s novel had come to represent the Midwest just as Wood s paintings symbolized that region during the 1930s. Today Sinclair Lewis and Grant Wood still endure as cultural figures who captured something distinctive yet elusive about the Heartland; yet Lewis and Wood looked at the American Midwest through different eyes. Lewis saw provincialism and narrowness, while Wood gloried in the solid, earthy strength of his fellow midwesterners and their land. Both men felt conflicted about their homes, and these dichotomies filtered into their work. This publication explores the American Main Street of both Lewis and Wood through the nine drawings Wood created for the 1937 Special Editions Club book, Main Street, as well as two self-portraits of the artist as a Midwesterner.
