20108vo; 336 pages; isbn 9780809030217. This book was honored as one of Amazons Best Books of the Month for May 2010:When the railroad stretched its steel rails across the American West in the 1870s, it opened up a vast expanse of territory with very few people but enormous agricultural potential: a second Western frontier, the garden West. Agriculture quickly followed the railroads, making way for Kansas wheat and Colorado sugar beets and Washington apples. With this new agriculture came an unavoidable need for harvest workersfor hands to pick the apples, cotton, oranges, and hops; to pull and top the sugar beets; to fill the trays with raisin grapes and apricots; to stack the wheat bundles in shocks to be pitched into the maw of the threshing machine. These were not the year-round hired hands but transients who would show up to harvest the crop and then leave when the work was finished. Variously called bindlestiffs, fruit tramps, hoboes, and bums, these menand women and childrenwere vital to the creation of the West and its economy. Amazingly, it is an aspect of Western history that has never been told. In Hoboes: Bindlestiffs, Fruit Tramps, and the Harvesting of the West, the award-winning historian Mark Wyman beautifully captures the lives of these workers. Exhaustively researched and highly original, this narrative history is a detailed, deeply sympathetic portrait of the lives of these hoboes, as well as a fresh look at the settling and development of the American West.New Condition, Hardback with illustrated dust jacket and photo plates inside.

1995167 pages including index. Neatly typed presentation bookplate upon half-title page. The controversy that surrounds BC's forests has produced a mountain of contradictory words. Most people don't know what to believe. The Working Forest Project tries to solve that problem by showing the BC forest as it really is - in photographs. In the past two years the Working Forest Project, initiated by forester Ike Barber and led by forester Gerry Burch, undertook the most comprehensive photographic documentation ever attempted of the BC forest, showing the good and the bad. On the way it interviewed the professional foresters who manage the working forest, and writer Peter Robson put together a concise and factual explanation of the state of British Columbia's forests in the 1990s. This visually stunning book contains over 200 full-colour photographs and graphs showing an overview of forestry in British Coumbia. Special emphasis is given to the areas which have been logged over the years, with many time-lapse photographs comparing original clearcuts to the second-growth forests which have regrown on the sites.
