Ragged Coast, Rugged Coves
Ragged Coast, Rugged Coves explores the untold story of cannery workers in Southeast Alaska from 1878 through the Cold War, particularly how making a living was pitted against the economic realities of the day.
The Drive of Civilization
Professor and author Diane J. Purvis sheds light on the plight of the Stikine Tlingit, one of the first indigenous groups occupying Southeast Alaska's Tongass Forest, in a historic battle to retain their traditional lands after the advent of Big Timber. Because of the expansion of Western civilization, the Native clans were forced to powerlessly watch as their lands and waters were usurped without extinguishment of aboriginal title. From the Russians to the Americans, the newcomers moved in and staked their claim, ignoring the rights of the first people. Purvis demonstrates step-by-step how the Tlingit were politically marginalized by resource imperialism. A compelling historical narrative of an indigenous group fighting against the federal government's reckless resource extraction, all the way to the Supreme Court. The Drive of Civilization should not be missed by history lovers seeking a fresh look at American Native strength.

Edgar Hoover, Director of the FBI, was immensely jealous of the agent who had been his friend and prot'g', and...

Arthrogryposis
The term arthrogryposis describes a range of congenital contractures that lead to childhood deformities. It encompasses a number of syndromes and sporadic deformities that are rare individually but collectively are not uncommon. Yet, the existing medical literature on arthrogryposis is sparse and often confusing. The aim of this book is to provide individuals affected with arthrogryposis, their families, and health care professionals with a helpful guide to better understand the condition and its therapy. With this goal in mind, the editors have taken great care to ensure that the presentation of complex clinical information is at once scientifically accurate, patient oriented, and accessible to readers without a medical background. The book is authored primarily by members of the medical staff of the Arthrogryposis Clinic at Children's Hospital and Medical Center in Seattle, Washington, one of the leading teams in the management of the condition, and will be an invaluable resource for both health care professionals and families of affected individuals.
