Detailed Stratigraphic, Structural and Three-dimensional Mapping of the Basal Surface of the Paleoproterozoic Bravo Lake Formation, Nadluardjuk Lake Area, Central Baffin Island, Nunavut
The basal surface of the Bravo Lake Formation, central Baffin Island, represents a rapid, conformable transition from iron-enriched marine deposition to near-basin margin shallow marine volcanism. This report presents results of detailed structural, stratigraphic, & three-dimensional mapping of this basal surface in an area south-west of Nadluardjuk Lake. It includes information on the general geology of the area, stratigraphy, characteristics of exposed rocks, and structural geology.
Colonel Albert Pope and His American Dream Machines
In the 1890s Colonel Albert A. Pope was hailed as a leading American automaker. That his name is not a household word today is the very essence of his story. Pope's production methods as the world's largest manufacturer of bicycles led to the building of automobiles with lightweight metals, rubber tires, precision machining, interchangeable parts, and vertical integration. The founder of the Good Roads Movement, Pope entered automobile manufacturing while steam, electricity, and gasoline power were still vying for supremacy. The story of his failed dream of dominating U.S. automobile production is an engrossing view into America's industrial history.
Women Before the Bar
Women before the Bar is the first study to investigate changing patterns of women's participation in early American courts across a broad range of legal actions--including proceedings related to debt, divorce, illicit sex, rape, and slander. Weaving the stories of individual women together with systematic analysis of gendered litigation patterns, Cornelia Dayton argues that women's relation to the courtroom scene in early New England shifted from one of integration in the mid-seventeenth century to one of marginality by the eve of the Revolution. Using the court records of New Haven, which originally had the most Puritan-dominated legal regime of all the colonies, Dayton argues that Puritani...
The Narrow Edge
Thousands of ravenous tiny shorebirds race along the water's edge of Delaware Bay, feasting on pin-sized horseshoe-crab eggs. Fueled by millions of eggs, the migrating red knots fly on. When they arrive at last in their arctic breeding grounds, they will have completed a near-miraculous 9,000-mile journey that began in Tierra del Fuego. Deborah Cramer followed these knots, whose numbers have declined by 75 percent, on their extraordinary odyssey from one end of the earth to the other—from an isolated beach at the tip of South America all the way to the icy tundra. In her firsthand account, she explores how diminishing a single stopover can compromise the birds' entire journey, and how the ...
