Sinopsis

Lost Cities in Parks reveals the hidden histories within America's national parks, exploring pre-Columbian settlements and early European impacts. These parks aren't just natural wonders; they're also significant historical sites holding clues to past civilizations. The book emphasizes the importance of understanding the diverse narratives often overlooked in traditional American history. For example, archaeological evidence reveals that ancient peoples adapted and thrived in environments we now consider pristine wilderness.

 


 
The book progresses by first introducing national parks as cultural heritage repositories. It then examines specific sites like Mesa Verde and Cahokia Mounds, highlighting their history and cultural significance. Preservation challenges, from natural erosion to development pressures, are also explored, alongside ethical considerations in managing these resources.

 


 
The overarching goal is to promote public education and engagement to protect these invaluable cultural landscapes for future generations, ensuring these stories continue to be told.

Bright Summaries

Unlock the more straightforward side of Tropic of Cancer with this concise and insightful summary and analysis!This engaging summary presents an analysis of Tropic of Cancer by Henry Miller, which is closely based on the author's time as a struggling writer in Paris, when he drifted from friend to friend, scraped together a living through borrowing and mundane jobs, and spent much of his time drinking and womanising. The novel's explicit sexual content meant that it was considered pornographic when it was first written; consequently, it was the subject of multiple obscenity trials and was initially banned in the US. However, it garnered praise from writers including George Orwell, and is now recognised as one of the most influential books of the 20th century.Find out everything you need to know about Tropic of Cancer in a fraction of the time!This in-depth and informative reading guide brings you:• A complete plot summary• Character studies• Key themes and symbols• Questions for further reflectionWhy choose BrightSummaries.com?Available in print and digital format, our publications are designed to accompany you on your reading journey.

The Adventures of Cammy Lambie -...

Mara-lee Stricker

“In this short story, you will see the tender heart of love and careful words of instruction of Mother. The law of kindness is on Mother’s tongue. She demonstrates watchful protection over Cammy and Sammy as she daily is in their presence. Parents can easily relate the mother’s heart, akin to the heart of Jesus as He is to His children. A wonderful and useful book. Had I had this book when my children were small, I certainly would have made use of it. I highly recommend this for all ages!” Patti Roberts- married homeschooling mother of seven with growing number of grand babies.“Mara-lee has given us a tremendous gift. Christians throughout history have systematically taught the faith to their children. This practice of systematic training in a catechism has become largely neglected by the Church in the last generation. Mara-lee’s hope is to bridge the gap between the old ways of training our kids up in solid doctrine, allowing them to wrestle with the deep things of God, and modern children’s story telling. I hope many find her work to be a blessing to the spiritual life of their children and a warm treasure in their home during the intimate times as the family gathers.” Pastor Jeff Durbin- married father of four, sought after for his debate skills and also the main host of ApologiaRadio.com“Mara-lee has peeked into a child’s inquiring mind and has given solid answers to questions about how to hear and respond to God’s voice. Children will love the way Cammy’s Adventures introduces them to new experiences in their lives. This delightful book will be a great tool for opening up discussions both at home and in the classroom.” Donna Lapp- married mother of 3, grandmother of 13 and great grandmother of 10. She is also a retired elementary grade school teacher.

The Science of Racism -...

Keon West

In this frank, funny, and meticulous book, a leading social scientist lays out the striking facts we know about racism, how we have uncovered them, and how we can start to fix them
Studies and surveys show, time and again, that about 50 percent of people believe that racism is no longer an issue today. The other half would disagree—vehemently. And much of the writing on the subject of race and racism is equally divisive, in large part because so much of it is based on opinion and personal experience. It’s not grounded in empiricism. It’s not science.
In The Science of Racism, social psychologist Keon West corrects that idea, moving this urgent conversation beyond anecdote and polemic in search of conclusive answers and solutions. Starting with a fascinating look at experiments around race in hiring, Dr. West brilliantly and methodically walks readers through our comprehensive understanding of this controversial topic. He looks at how racism impacts every stage and all facets of life, from birth to death, in education, work and business, friendships and relationships, police and the justice system, and healthcare. He also looks at the challenges around studying these questions and the ways we can uncover the truth, and then where we go from here: why unconscious bias training can actually make things worse, and what systems and techniques can lead us to a more equitable future.
“Illuminating, surprising, unnerving, moving ... and, sadly, utterly necessary for this time in history.”—Sathnam Sanghera, international bestselling author of Empireland: How Imperialism Has Shaped Modern Britain
