SILVER SPRING SUCCESS The 300 Year History of Silver Spring, Maryland Sixth edition with photos, 142 pages by Richard C. Jaffeson, AICP April 2014 Copyrights (c) 1995, 2000, 2003, and 2014 First edition, November 1995; Second edition, April 1996; Third edition, July 1996: Fourth edition, September 2000; and Fifth edition, January 2003 The sixth edition in 2014 contains 37 pages updated from the 2003 issue and features a new cover photo. This informative book highlights the historic development of Silver Spring, Maryland covering the central business district and the immediately surrounding residential areas. The community is adjacent to northwest Washington, DC, and this history describes many significant events and prominent individuals. The first history of Silver Spring was written in 1918 by Gist Blair, the son of Montgomery Blair (the attorney who represented Dred Scott before the Supreme Court, and Postmaster General for President Abraham Lincoln), and the grandson of Francis Preston Blair and Eliza Gist Blair. A special April 1996 edition was prepared for Blair Lee IV, a direct descendent of the founding Blair and Lee families and son of the former Maryland governor, for a presentation at the annual meeting of the Board of Directors of the Lee Development Group. The text covers more than 300 years from the colonial land grants to the actual discovery of Silver Spring, and from its initial suburban growth to the more recent urban development. There are five major sections and nearly forty chapters on specific events and individuals. Each chapter includes questions at the beginning, which are followed by text, and concludes with the answers to that section. Publication Commentary In June 1997, this publication received an "Excellence in Planning Award for Development Process," from the National Capital Area Chapter, American Planning Association at its Annual Awards Program and 50th Anniversary Celebration at historic Fort McNair in Washington, DC. "Clearly, this was thoroughly researched and will serve as a great resource for many years to come. Your efforts are very much appreciated in documenting the history of our proud community." ~Derick P. Berlage, former Member County Council, Montgomery County, MD "I have placed your book in the office of our curator where it will serve as an informative reference." ~Randy Bumgardner, Administrator Blair House, U.S. State Department, Washington, DC "The fact that Elizabeth Blair found, ́...the bubbling brook they called Silver Spring. ́ while riding her horse appeals to an ́old ́ horseback rider like me." ~Nancy Dacek, former Member County Council, Montgomery County, MD "You have complied a detailed history of Silver Spring in a format that is intriguing and engaging. I'm sure anyone interested in our county's past will enjoy reading your book. It's great to see ́history ́ encompassing more recent accomplishments, including the current revitalization efforts, in which, I believe we have found a ́formula for success. ́" ~Douglas M.

In recent decades, American suburbs have undergone a so-called renaissance as multiple forces have transformed them into denser urban landscapes. Yet at the same time, suburban racial diversity, immigration, and poverty rates have surged. The Right to Suburbia investigates how marginalized communities in the suburbs of Washington, DC--one of the most intensely gentrifying metropolitan regions in the United States--have battled the uneven costs and benefits of redevelopment. Willow Lung-Amam narrates the efforts of activists, community groups, and political leaders fighting for communities' "right to suburbia"--that is, their right to stay put and benefit from new neighborhood investments. Revealing the far-reaching impacts of state-led redevelopment, The Right to Suburbia shows how patterns of unequal, racialized development and displacement are being produced and reproduced in suburbs--and how communities are fighting back.

Are you a young person? Middle-aged? Old? It doesn't really matter. Each of us grows older every second. Most of us age without taking charge of our life course, without a plan for our ageing. This book offers some operating instructions for life, a guide to engaging passionately with age! Dealing with a plethora of subjects, such as health, happiness, loneliness, dementia, sex, gender, marriage, abuse, respect, wage, wealth, class, and care, the book touches on how ageing affects us as individuals and as a society. It explores a few of the mysteries and miracles of life, and some of its myths. It encourages us to cope creatively with the mundaneness of our continuing life. The author invites you to join her as she delves into these questions about life and ageing with curiosity and contemplation, and with a sense of awe and adventure.

Have you ever watched a dog, out for a morning walk, who's just spotted a squirrel? The dog immediately springs forward to pursue his catch. He is restricted, not by his own instincts, but by a force he didn't know existed; his harness, his owner's restraint. When our dreams become real to us, fear, doubt, and adversity often collar our ambition.

What does leadership and change actually look like in myriad situations? This “boots-on-the-ground” resource, written by a former dean of education, pulls back the curtain on the crucial and complicated role of senior leadership and brings to the forefront experiences that often go unspoken. With humor and common-sense advice, the author draws on relevant scholarship to uncover the process for succeeding and thriving as a leader. The portrait of a dean is presented as a thoughtful activist whose leadership is defined by careful consideration of the responsibilities of the position and ethical responses to it all. Themes woven throughout the book include staying authentic, having courage, and remaining fair. Learning from the past but presenting a contemporary view, The Successful Dean responds to the rapidly changing context of higher education. “This book tells a story that feels authentic and cathartic.” —Karen Symms Gallagher, USC Rossier School of Education "Koerner proved to be an exceptionally able dean in an especially complex university setting. She has terrific advice for any aspirants to the deanship." —David C. Berliner, Regents’ Professor Emeritus, Arizona State University “A must-read for novice and seasoned higher education leaders.” —Alfredo J. Artiles, professor and dean, Arizona State University
