Lancaster, California Through Time
9781635000603
Regular price $22.99 Save Liquid error (snippets/product-template line 248): Computation results in '-Infinity'%Lancaster has been the institutional and community center of the Valley since the 1880s, the era of the famous Southern California "land boom." Previously considered an uninhabitable area, its history unfolded with the arrival of the Southern Pacific Railroad (SPRR) route between San Joaquin Valley and Los Angeles Basin during the summer of 1876; just as a freeway does today, the construction of a railroad always meant development all along the route.
This Lancaster from more than 130 years ago is also responsible for creating the Lancaster of today. What started as a small ranching and farming community soon became known throughout Southern California for its expansive fields of alfalfa and substantial poultry ranches, and then later its association with record-breaking aviation and aerospace achievements.
The Isles of Shoals Through Time
9781635001051
Regular price $23.99 Save Liquid error (snippets/product-template line 248): Computation results in '-Infinity'%There are relatively few places in the world where time seems to stand still. Incremental changes have occurred on the Isles of Shoals, but they remain hidden beneath the natural and historical beauty that has been their hallmark since the late 1800s. Old Shoalers such as "Uncle" Oscar Laighton and the famed poet, Celia Thaxter, would still recognize the place today, from the grandeur of the Oceanic Hotel on Star Island and the wilds of Duck Island, to the stoicism of duty-bound White Island Lighthouse.
The Isles of Shoals Through Time is a visual journey to this offshore haven, a reflection of summers past and a prediction of summers yet to come. Stepping off the boat at Star, we wander past cottages and monuments. On Appledore Island we witness the rugged, natural beauty that attracted artists of all types. As we cruise through the islands as the sun sets on the Maine and New Hampshire coastlines, we are reminded why visitors return year after year to this timeless place.

9781635000382
Regular price $22.99 Save Liquid error (snippets/product-template line 248): Computation results in '-Infinity'%With a history like no other in America, Provincetown already had been the sacred ground of Thorwald, the Icelandic Viking in 1004. But beginning in the seventeenth, it evolved through a five centuries continuum; it would become the first to welcome the Pilgrims before they traveled on to that "Rock" they're always talking about. It would become the largest whaling and British Revolutionary War staging port, the largest artist colony and producer of more Pulitzer Prizes for its combined literatures before being dubbed the most popular gay resort in the world.
The Provincetown Film Festival kicks off the summer season every year, and grows with the annual blessing of the Portuguese fishing fleet. It seems to hit its stride by the 4th of July, "Bear Week" and "Carnival"-P'town's take on Marti Gras-with its "fabulous" parade and winds up with the "over the top" Halloween Costume Ball. All of this under the glow of a 252 foot granite block illuminated Pilgrim's Monument, a replicated fourteenth century Italian tower.
What is phenomenal, it is still a quaint little New England seaside fishing village!

After examining countless images available through local archives and personal collections, Mr. Pezzaglia has chosen an assortment of photographs which depict the community's history. He has augmented those photographs with current images, which illustrate how, in some examples, the landscape of the town has changed, while in other instances, much has remained the same."

Harrington Through Time
9781635000931
Regular price $23.99 Save Liquid error (snippets/product-template line 248): Computation results in '-Infinity'%Founded as a crossroad stagecoach stop in the 1700s, known then as Clarks Corner, the city was center stage when the crucial decision was made on where the Delaware Railroad would place its final stop in the 1850s. As the end of the line, anyone wishing to ship goods by rail, or ride the train, would come to Harrington.
As a result of this, the town doubled in size in less than twenty years, and until the 1940s, continued its upward growth. After World War II, the city saw the demise of its glory days as a railroad city, but other industries, specifically the garment industry, called Harrington home until the 1970s.
Today, Harrington is growing again, but still retains its small-town charms."

Journey down backcountry roads, across fields of waist-high grass, and through dense underbrush. Venture down dirt lanes to discover homes--once grand and full of life--that were mysteriously abandoned. Prepare to stumble upon discarded machinery and objects and to catch a glimpse of places, covered with dust and infested by insects, which have been untouched by man for decades. In silence and desolation, these places sit. Only the buzzing of bees and the occasional chirp of a bird can be heard as these abandoned curiosities slowly return to the earth. You will appreciate the beauty of nature's silent and thorough destruction, feel the loneliness and sadness of these hidden wonders, and no doubt wonder how these once-cherished possessions and structures came to be so utterly forgotten

Transportation shifted from trolleys and trains, horses and buggies, to automobiles. Yet, much remained the same. The Victorian homes and commercial structures on Main Street survived a near brush with Urban Renewal. With the canal continuing to be the heart of the village, the college and many schools serve to enrich Brockport's mind. This short book attempts to document the most visible--and vivid--aspects of that transformation.
Wid Scalpel and Shillaleh

Regular price $23.99 Save Liquid error (snippets/product-template line 248): Computation results in '-Infinity'%His fame rested initially on his pioneering work in the specialties of laryngology and rhinology. Later in his career, however, it was the imbroglio he caused as major and surgeon-in-chief of the U.S. Volunteers during the Spanish-American War that brought him national notoriety.
In 1898, Daly became enmeshed in a controversy popularly referred to as the "embalmed beef scandal." Having found the purveyors of beef to the Army were experimentally using hazardous preservatives on the meat, Daly convinced his friend, General Miles, to take on the War Department. The ensuing trial attracted national attention and resulted in the forced resignation of Secretary of War Russell A. Alger and the court-martial of Commissary General Charles P. Eagan.
Daly's role in bringing attention to the activities of the meatpacking industry cannot be overstated. The sensational outcome of the hearings remained in the news for months and caught the public eye. It was not long before Upton Sinclair and others began their clarion calls for government intervention that resulted in passage of the Pure Food and Drugs Act and the Meat Inspection Act in June 1906.
