Perfect in Their Art
Since Homer, boxing has been fertile ground for poets. The boxer-as-tragic-hero archetype seems to have particular power in the poems collected here; fatallyy flawed champs like Jack Johnson and Sonny Liston are poetic subjects at least as often as Joe Louis and Ali.
The Old Liberators
Culled from over 25 years of writing, Robert Hedin's New & Selected Poetry collection reflects an elegant and image-rich lyricism. Hedin's precise poems attain an astonishing emotional range and clarity of observation. Whether grounded in the author's native Midwestern soil or traveling the world, these spare but powerful verses reveal the gifts of a contemporary master.
Mine Water
Nowhere is the conflict between economic progress and environmental quality more apparent than in the mineral extraction industries. The latter half of the 20th century saw major advances in the reclamation technologies. However, mine water pollution problems have not been addressed. In many cases, polluted mine water long outlives the life of the mining operation. As the true cost of long-term water treatment responsibilities has become apparent, interest has grown in the technologies that would decrease the production of contaminated water and make its treatment less costly. This is the first book to address the mine water issue head-on. The authors explain the complexities of mine water pollution by reviewing the hydrogeological context of its formation, and provide an up-to-date presentation of prevention and treatment technologies. The book will be a valuable reference for all professionals who encounter polluted mine water on a regular or occasional basis.
The Great Machines
Here, for the first time, is a feast for anyone who has ever been beguiled by the trains that formerly thrummed through the landscapes of our lives. This entertaining and evocative anthology presents the amazing variety of poems and songs written about the American railroad in the last century and a half. Comprised of selections from both oral and written traditions, the volume celebrates the historical and cultural significance of this marvel of engineering skills. Hedin's anthology allows all readers, from the most avid railroad buff to anyone who has fond memories of train travel, to enjoy the romance of trains.
