Island of Grass tells the story of the Cathy Fromme Prairie Natural Area, a 240-acre preserve surrounded by housing developments in Fort Collins, Colorado. This small grassland is a remnant of the once-vast prairies of the West that early European explorers and settlers described as seas of grass. Agricultural land use and urban expansion during the past two centuries have fragmented and altered these prairies. All that remains today are small islands. These remnants cannot support some of the larger animals that once roamed the prairie, but they continue to support a diverse array of plants and animals and can still teach us much about grassland ecology. Through her examinations of daily changes during walks across the Fromme Prairie over the course of a year, Ellen Wohl explores one of the more neglected ecosystems in North America, describing the geology, soils, climate, ecology, and natural history of the area, as well as providing glimpses into the lives of the plants, animals, and microbes inhabiting this landscape. Although small in size, pieces of preserved shortgrass prairie like the Cathy Fromme Prairie Natural Area are rich, diverse, and accessible natural environments deserving of awareness, appreciation, and protection. Anyone concerned with the ecology and conservation of grasslands in general, the ecology and conservation of open space in urban areas, or the natural history of Colorado will be interested in this book.

A pioneering study of early trade and beach communities in the Pacific Islands and first published in 1977, this book provides historians with an ambitious survey of early European-Polynesian contact, an analysis of how early trade developed along with the beachcomber community, and a detailed reconstruction of development of the early Pacific port towns. Set mainly in the first half of the 19th century, continuing in some cases for a few decades more, the book covers five ports: Kororareka (now Russell, in New Zealand), Levuka (Fiji), Apia (Samoa), Papeete (Tahiti) and Honolulu (Hawai'i). The role of beachcombers, the earliest European inhabitants, as well as the later consuls or commercial agents, and the development of plantation economies is explored. The book is a tour de force, the first detailed comparative academic study of these early precolonial trading towns and their race relations. It argues that the predominantly egalitarian towns where Islanders, beachcombers, traders, and missionaries mixed were largely harmonious, but this was undermined by later arrivals and larger populations.

This version contains numerous photographs for an enhanced reader experience. Johnny Duggan was born around the outbreak of World War II. Johnny's story follows his trials and tribulations, his loves and assignations, and his challenges and conflicts, as he moves through the long grass of life from one job to another, through one country to another. He is forced to change his outlook to life many times through his experiences in Africa, Europe, and the USA, as well as the variety of people with whom he comes into contact. In many places, the story is very confrontational and hard hitting, and takes no prisoners. It is not a story for the daunted, nor those who are not prepared to accept the stark, bare, exposed realities of life.

Johnny Duggan joined a bank in the newly independent country of Zambia, and soon found that life in Africa was quite different to that back in England. He soon found himself embroiled in a sequence of events that followed him up to the desolate Northern Province in Zambia where life took on a quicker pace than that in England. Johnny became drawn into what turned out to be a wide-spread conspiracy which one of Johnny's bank colleagues had to be brought into. Greed, however, took the better of his colleague and he was forced to take flight from Zambia with unfortunate consequences. Johnny finally returned to England and the lacklustre life from which he had earlier escaped.

Written by an experienced oncology nurse for cancer patients, families, and caregivers, The Valley Where the Grass Grows Green abounds with hope and encouragement while containing a wealth of practical medical information. The text is presented in two distinct but related parts; both sections are invaluable and can stand alone. Part I is a motivational, uplifting view of the human aspect of cancer, stressing the intrinsic worth of people in every phase of their lives. Its spiritual profundity is enriching for all cultures and philosophies. Part II gives a comprehensible overview of cancer, then walks the reader through the chemotherapy experience. Medical terms and concepts are explained, and indepth suggestions for preventing or coping with side effect are presented. This book is a must for the cancer community and is highly recommended for nursing and medical students, hospice families, support groups, seasoned health professionals, and introspective readers. In addition to the obvious benefits derived from the specialized health information in The Valley Where the Grass Grows Green, the book's joyful message of hope and purpose can contribute to the healing process. Science and healthcare professionals are increasingly recognizing the therapeutic value of spirituality as an adjunct to medicine in physical ailments. Replete with imagery and in an almost poetic style, the optimism that is imparted throughout this book is made credible by its realistic and informative approach. The book is designed to be short, with very short chapters, so as to appeal more readily to a wide audience in varying health circumstances, and it can be read repeatedly with new delight and insights each me. It is a perfect gift for anyone, whether touched by cancer or not. It is even a perfect gift to give yourself for a transforming, edifying, and expanding experience, a source of health information, spiritual enrichment, or simple enjoyment.
