        Caves and Culture

        10,000 Years of Ohio History

        by Linda Spurlock (author), O. Prufer (author) and J. Piggot (author)

        A collection of the last forty years of research on Ohio’s caves and rocksheltersCaves and Culture seeks to address a number of important problems, specifically the use of rockshelters by humans through time and transcontinental continuities. It presents new and updated, unreported research from such Ohio caves and rockshelters as Stow Rockshelter (Stow), Peters Cave (Ross County), Hendricks Cave (Wyandotte County), and Chesser Cave (Athens), among others.Caves and Culture is primarily focused on the archaeological research of Dr. Olaf H. Prufer and his associates as they investigated and explored caves in Ohio since 1964. Spurlock and her co-editors report, sometimes reclaim, and frequently reinterpret data that will be useful to the understanding of Ohio archaeology for decades to come. Anyone with interest in local or regional (Midwestern or midcontinental) prehistory will appreciate this exploration into Ohio’s history.

        A Route for the Overland Stage

        James H. Simpson's 1859 Trail Across the Great Basin

        by Jesse G. Petersen

        The 1859 exploration of the Great Basin by army topographical engineer James Simpson opened up one of the West's most important transportation and communication corridors, a vital link between the Pacific Coast and the rest of the nation. It became the route of the Pony Express and the Overland Mail and Stage, the line of the Pacific telegraph, a major wagon road for freighters and emigrants, and, later, the first transcontinental auto road, the Lincoln Highway, now Highway 50. No one has accurately tracked or mapped Simpson's original route, until now. Jesse Petersen shows in words, maps, and photos exactly where the explorer went. Sharing his detective-like reasoning as he walked or drove the entire trail west and Simpson's variant route returning east, Petersen takes readers on a mountain and desert trek through some of America's most remote and striking landscapes.

        Firearms of the American West, Vol. 2, 1866-1894 (v. 2)

        by Louis A Garavaglia , Charles G Worman

        Prior to the building of the transcontinental railroad, the area between the Missouri River and the West coast was largely uninhabited by settlers, but as this vast area became accessible to them, and as they pushed westward, the problems of violence on the frontier increased. Bears, wolves, and Indians no longer posed the greatest threat to pioneers; white clashed with white, the lawful with the lawless. And, of course, firearms played a major role in this drama. This is the second volume of a two-part study of firearms in the nineteenth-century American West. It traces the development of the firearm from the close of the Civil War to the beginning of its modern era. Within this period, the authors have discussed all the important military and civilian firearms used in the settling of the West, as well as the guns favoured by Indians. Over five hundred photographs illustrate the weapons and the famous and now-forgotten men and women who used them.

        In the Footsteps of Lewis and Clark

        Early Commemorations and the Origins of the National Historic Trail

        by Wallace G Lewis

        Although it was 1806 when Lewis and Clark returned to St. Louis after their journey across the country, it was not until 1905 that they were celebrated as national heroes. This book examines how public attitudes toward their explorations and the means of commemorating them have changed, from the production of the Lewis and Clark Exposition in 1905 to the establishment of the Lewis and Clark National Historic Trail in 1978 and the celebrations of the expedition's bicentennial from 2003 through 2007. The first significant stirrings of national public interest in Lewis and Clark coincided with the beginning of a nation-wide fascination with transcontinental automobile touring. Americans began to reconnect with the past and interact with the history of Western expansion by becoming a new breed of "frontier explorer" via their cars. As a result, early emphasis on local plaques and monuments yielded to pageants, re-enactments, and, ultimately, attempts to retrace the route, promoting conservation and recreation along its length. Wallace G Lewis details the ingenuity that inspired the establishment of the Lewis and Clark National Historic Trail, opening a window to how America re-imagines, recreates, and remembers its own past. This book will appeal to both scholarly and armchair historians interested in the Western frontier as experienced by both Lewis and Clark and those retracing their steps today."

        Une histoire du peuple Yoruba (A history of the Yoruba people)

        by Stephen Adebanji Akintoye

        "A History of the Yoruba People" is a bold and comprehensive exploration of the foundation and development of one of Africa's most influential groups. With a population of over 40 million speakers in West Africa (Benin, Côte d'Ivoire, Nigeria, and Togo) and in diaspora communities in Europe, the Caribbean, Latin America, and North America, the Yoruba are one of the most extensively studied African-origin groups. However, to date, very few publications have delved into the historical foundations of the development of a group that has contributed to shaping how African communities are analyzed from prehistory to modern times. In "A History of the Yoruba People," Stephen Adebanji Akintoye draws on four decades of historiographical research, along with current interpretations and analyses, to present the most comprehensive reference work since Johnson's early 20th-century publications. Akintoye traces the origins of the Yoruba from their mythical and legendary beginnings, the development of Yoruba society, the revolution and prominence of Ile-Ife from the 10th to the 15th century, the founding of Yoruba kingdoms and the dynamics of power within them, and the rise and fall of the Oyo Empire. The narrative also covers the factors of change in the 19th century, the rise of various kingdoms, the emergence of transcontinental diaspora communities, the colonial and post-colonial periods of the 20th century, and the socio-economic and political transformations of today. This exceptionally clear narrative brings together and makes accessible a wealth of research and investigation on the Yoruba to a wider readership than ever before. A must-read for all.

        The Impact of Globalization on Infectious Disease Emergence and Control

        Exploring the Consequences and Opportunities, Workshop Summary - Forum on Microbial Threats

        by Stacey Knobler, Adel Mahmoud, Stanley Lemon, Leslie Pray, Editors, Forum on Microbial Threats

        Globalization is by no means a new phenomenon; transcontinental trade and the movement of people date back at least 2,000 years, to the era of the ancient Silk Road trade route. The global spread of infectious disease has followed a parallel course. Indeed, the emergence and spread of infectious disease are, in a sense, the epitome of globalization. Although some experts mark the fall of the Berlin Wall as the beginning of this new era of globalization, others argue that it is not so new. The future of globalization is still in the making. Despite the successful attempts of the developed world during the course of the last century to control many infectious diseases and even to eradicate some deadly afflictions, 13 million people worldwide still die from such diseases every year. On April 16 and 17, 2002, the Forum on Emerging Infections held a working group discussion on the influence of globalization on the emergence and control of infectious diseases. The contents of the unattributed sections are based on the presentations and discussions that took place during the workshop. The Impact of Globalization on Infectious Disease Emergence and Control report summarizes the presentations and discussions related to the increasing cross-border and cross-continental movements of people and how this could exacerbate the emergence and global spread of infectious diseases. This report also summarizes the means by which sovereign states and nations must adopt a global public health mind-set and develop a new organizational framework to maximize the opportunities and overcome the challenges created by globalization and build the necessary capacity to respond effectively to emerging infectious disease threats.

      • Tracks to Murder

        Tracks to Murder

        by Jonathan Goodman (author)

        A witty and informative look at classic American murder casesOn a 6,000-mile train trip across the North American continent from New York City to the West Coast, then back to New York over a southern route, prizewinning English crime historian Jonathan Goodman visited a number of sites where notorious murders occurred—the Kingsbury Run torso murders in Cleveland; the murder by “thrill-killers” Leopold and Loeb, the St. Valentine’s Day Massacre, and the escapades of Al Capone in Chicago; the Henwood-VonPhul-Springer affair in Denver; the murders of Marian Williams and Blanche Lamont in the Emmanuel Baptist Church in San Francisco; and Kate Townsend’s murder in New Orleans. Goodman masterfully fuses two literary genres that reach back into the nineteenth century: the true crime essay fathered by Thomas De Quincy and travel reports popularized by Charles Dickens and Mark Twain.As a true crime book, Tracks to Murder is witty and informative and enriches these classic American murder cases by placing them within their original settings. Goodman also plays them against their locations as they are today, resulting in a series of character sketches both contemporary and historical. As a travel book, it presents the seasoned reflections of a cultivated English writer on American manners and morals observed during his serendipitous transcontinental journey.“In each of those places, a murder happened, all a long while ago—not just any old murder, no thud-and-blunder affair, but one that is worth remembering, rarely because of the crime itself but because of strangenesses arising from, or brought to light by, that crime.”—from the Preface

        Community Ecology of Tropical Birds

        by C. Sivaperruman & E.A.Jayson

        Community Ecology of Tropical Birds, the tropical ecosystems is one of the most biological diverse habitats on the earth. Seventy six per cent of all centers of avian endemism occur in tropical regions and the same is true for many plant and animal communities. Birds are important component of biological diversity and their ecological, cultural, recreational and economic benefits are recognized universally. They act as vital links in many food webs and often serve as highly visible biological indicators of ecosystem health. Many bird populations are declining all over the world due to habitat loss and fragmentation, predation, pesticide use, invasive exotic species and other factors. This book is about the ecology of tropical bird community, all together 12 chapters are described and divided into two parts. The first part of this book looks at the forest bird community including status and distribution, species-abundance relationship, seasonal changes, vertical distribution and habitat utilisation. The second part provides detailed ecology of wetland bird community. This book will be an invaluable resource for field scientist, researchers, students, and naturalists in the field of Ornithology.

        Beyond Confrontation

        Globalists, Nationalists and Their Discontents

        by Phil Mullan

        Reactions to the Coronavirus pandemic have escalated the pre-existing tensions between the US and China and among different Western nations. Confrontations between political globalists and mercantilist nationalists - between supporters of the rules-based international order and proponents of overt protectionism - are fueling ever-stronger international resentments.    Coupling argumentative rigor with a pragmatic, plainspoken approach, Phil Mullan charts out a novel, democratic way past dangerous and self-defeating confrontations towards a future of open international collaboration based on popular participation within nation states. With its clear-eyed assessment of the opportunities and challenges of a more interconnected world - an assessment in which the economic internationalisation underpinning globalisation theories is neither romanticised nor vilified - Beyond Confrontation sets a judicious tone for the big geopolitical themes of our times.
