CITY DIRECTORY JACKSON AMADOR COUNTY CALIFORNIA 1949.
Jackson California: : M-F Sales 1949. Fine condition. . First printing. A small booklet listing in alphabetical order all of the heads of households and businesses in Jackson California in 1949. Inside the front cover is the information that the data in this directory was taken from the official map of the streets and numbers recently adopted by the City of Jackson. While Jackson is the county seat of Amador and the largest city in the region it was still very much a small town then and now. In 1949 all of the gold mines had been shut down and the tourism boom had not yet begun. However looking just at the last page it is interesting to see the variety of names from the English Winterbottom to the Basque Ybarra the Chinese Yow and Yep and the Italian Zuccone. 28 pp in stiff tan stapled wrappers. Includes a double page street map a list of local organizations with meeting places and dates the US mail arrival and departure schedule and the location of all the fire alarm boxes.

Macintyre Stuart
Storia dell'Australia
br. Benché l'Australia sia stata l'ultimo dei continenti raggiunti dall'espansionismo europeo, vanta una cultura millenaria che negli ultimi due secoli si è trovata a confronto con la storia, la legislazione e i costumi dei "nuovi arrivati". Questo libro racconta in che modo gli europei hanno imposto la propria presenza sul territorio, e descrive come sono stati introdotti lo sviluppo tecnologico e delle istituzioni perché divenissero fondanti nel processo di colonizzazione. Illustra inoltre le difficoltà, e la conseguente frustrazione, incontrate dalla popolazione locale nel tentativo di riconoscersi in tradizioni condivise, mentre all'orizzonte si affacciavano sempre nuovi abitanti. Oggi, però, dal momento in cui possiamo affermare che la colonizzazione ebbe inizio con una vera e propria invasione, gli australiani sembrano essersi riconciliati con il proprio passato, in attesa di nuove sfide per il futuro.
