The Whiteness of Child Labor Reform in the New South

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: Focusing on Alabama`s textile industry, this study looks at the complex motivations behind the `whites-only` route taken by the Progressive reform movement in the South. In the early 1900s, northern mill owners seeking cheaper labor and fewer regulationsfound the South`s doors wide open. Children then comprised over 22 percent of the southern textile labor force, compared to 6 percent in New England. Shelley Sallee explains how northern and southern Progressives, who formed a transregional alliance to nudge the South toward minimal child welfare standards, had to mold their strategies around the racial and societal preoccupations of a crucial ally-white middle-class southerners. Southern whites of the `better sort` often regarded white mill workers as something of a race unto themselves--degenerate and just above blacks in station. To enlist white middle-class support, says Sallee, reformers had to address concerns about social chaos fueled by northern interference, the… [detailed...]

Description: Americans spend $48 billion a year on alternative therapies and medicine. This pattern is repeated across the world. Even in places such as the UK and much of Western Europe where basic health care is free, individuals are choosing to spend their own money on alternative therapies.

The author, himself a man of science and a self-proclaimed `member of the skeptical brigade` leads readers through studies of alternative medical methods and looks at the flaws and advantages in the techniques available. In the end, he reaches a inescapable conclusion: some of these techniques work.

The Wide Open: Prose, Poetry, and Photographs of the Prairie

2008 y.
Publisher: —
Description: It is hard to love the high, cold plains of the American West. They are vast and harsh and demanding. And perhaps because they are so hard to love, prairies challenge the imaginative mind and the adventurous heart. The Wide Open reveals how some of the most interesting and accomplished writers and photographers in the country have met that challenge and given the genius of the prairie a vision and a voice. Their stories are as diverse as the tellers, ranging from fiction by Barry Lopez, Richard Ford, and William Kittredge, to the childhood histories of Mary Clearman Blew and Judy Blunt and the nonfiction narratives of Jim Harrison, Gretel Ehrlich, and Rick Bass. There are works by Native American prairie dwellers such as M. L. Smoker and James Welch and the photographic interpretations of Lee Friedlander, Lois Conner, and Geoffrey James. Personal or poetic, journalistic or scientific, these works eloquently attest to the prairie’s abundance in all its human and natural variety,… [detailed...]
