Personal, lyrical, and extraordinary, "Patches of Fire is a memorable exploration of the black soldier's experience in Vietnam, the plight of the Vietnam veteran, and the redemptive power of writing. With the same passion for truth and stunning honesty that marks his highly acclaimed fiction, Albert French's remarkable memoir tells the story of a young man's encounter with a war and with deaths beyond his understanding; of his return to a country torn by racial unrest in the wake of the assassination of Martin Luther King, Jr., and of his painstaking efforts to defeat his inner demons and make a place for himself as a black man in white America. With a starkness tempered by humor, French brings to life the horrors of Vietnam, and recounts in compelling detail his uneasy tenure as a newspaper photographer, his heady days as publisher of his own magazine, his confrontations with the ghostly images of Vietnam that haunted his dreams--and the sense of renewal and purpose he achieved as a novelist.

"Fire on the Sea is set in the North Atlantic during the Second World War. Drawing on his own wartime experience in the RCAF in Halifax and Labrador, Tom Cummings adopted a fictive imaginative style that comes through in his communication of personal relations among characters, exploration of the enemy’s mind-set, and depiction of the drama of war at sea. It’s the spring of 1943 when Sean Caley and Paul Coquitts find themselves assigned to Combined Air-Sea Operations for the purpose of escorting an aviation fuel tanker, S.S. Patches, to aid in the battle in Europe. From pugnacious protagonists at their first encounter, they become close colleagues with shared roles in the ensuing conflict and evolving emotional sub-plot. The principal threat throughout is from German U-boats, but suspense and intrigue is added by having to combat onboard sabotage. While absurdities of war, conflict, and loss dominate the story line, the underlying allusions are to the beauty of iconic seascapes, comradeship, family values, and anti-war sentiments. Indeed, the final vision anticipates a utopian future for the principal characters and closes with a prediction of their living in peace on the land."--

Fire is pivotal to the functioning of ecosystems in Australia, affecting the distribution and abundance of the continent's unique and highly diverse range of plants and animals. Conservation of this natural biodiversity therefore requires a good understanding of scientific processes involved in the action of fire on the landscape. This book provides an up-to-date synthesis of current knowledge in this area and its application in contemporary land management. Central to the discussion is an exploration of the concept of the fire regime and its interactions with biodiversity.

The Forest Management Guide for Natural Disturbance Pattern Emulation (NDPE), which has been applied in Ontario since 2003, specifies directions and provides standards and guidance to emulate fire disturbances. Included in the NDPE guide are specific directions about the amount of residual structure to be retained during forest harvest. Improved understanding of the characteristics of post-fire residual structure in natural conditions will help forest policymakers to provide better strategic guidance for emulating natural fire disturbance patterns during forest harvesting, and forest managers to make better tactical decisions about retaining post-harvest residual structure to emulate fire disturbances. The objective of this report is to characterize the extent and variability of post-fire residual patch occurrence in natural boreal forest fire events to better understand their extent and spatial patterns and to relate these results to the directions provided in Ontario's NDPE guide.--Document.
