The Great Kanawha Navigation
A comprehensive history of navigation on the Great Kanawha River, detailing the industrial archaeology of this waterway from the early 19th century, and offering a detailed case study of a major 19th- and early 20th-century civil engineering project that significantly advanced the nation's industrial development.
Early American Technology
This collection of original essays documents technology's centrality to the history of early America. Unlike much previous scholarship, this volume emphasizes the quotidian rather than the exceptional: the farm household seeking to preserve food or acquire tools, the surveyor balancing economic and technical considerations while laying out a turnpike, the woman of child-bearing age employing herbal contraceptives, and the neighbors of a polluted urban stream debating issues of property, odor, and health. These cases and others drawn from brewing, mining, farming, and woodworking enable the authors to address recent historiographic concerns, including the environmental aspects of technological change and the gendered nature of technical knowledge. Brooke Hindle's classic 1966 essay on early American technology is also reprinted, and his view of the field is reassessed. A bibliographical essay and summary of Hindle's bibliographic findings conclude the volume. The contributors are Judith A. McGaw, Robert C. Post, Susan E. Klepp, Michal McMahon, Patrick W. O'Bannon, Sarah F. McMahon, Donald C. Jackson, Robert B. Gordon, Carolyn C. Cooper, and Nina E. Lerman.
Celtic Attic Cookbook
In the dark recesses of a cabinet, inside a plastic bag that was inside a box I discovered an old Recipes File Box. Inside the Recipes box were treasures jotted down on old tattered pieces of paper. Some handwritten, some typed, all worn with age, but all taunting of taste tingling cookies, cakes, breads, drinks and main dishes. These culinary delights are sure to thrill and sometimes horrify you! Who knew the Scots ate Haggis! Lutefisk is another Norwegian recipe I have to say Yuck to. Our recipes are must tries, especially the cookies and cakes. If you are searching for your Scandinavian or Celtic roots, give these recipes a whirl. Shake those genealogical trees and see what fruits and nuts fall out. Then bake it up and share it with your friends and family.
