Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the complexities of controlling White Pine Blister Rust in the Inland Empire, a region encompassing parts of three states whose forests are vital to the national timber supply. Blister Rust is caused by an invasive fungus that can decimate entire stands of pine trees, and the author delves into the history of its presence in the region. The author explains how the fungus' properties and spread created challenges for the crews tasked with preventing its spread across millions of acres of forest. Complicating their goal was the presence of other tree species in the same region, which presented challenges to eradicating the fungus without harming other parts of the ecosystem. The book explores the tension between preserving timber resources, protecting the environment, and the economic realities of forest management in the region. The author recognizes both the controversy surrounding such measures and the significant ecological stakes involved. Rigorously researched and featuring rare insights from those on the frontlines of this fight, this book is an insightful and engaging account of environmental management in the United States. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.…

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. 2009 OUP hardcover edition. Unread copy in very good condition. From the cover: Published to mark the bicentenary of Alfred Tennyson's birth, these essays offer an important revaluation of his achievement and its lasting importance. After several years in which the temper of criticism has been largely political (and often hostile towards Tennyson in particular) a number of influential recent accounts of Victorian poetry have rediscovered the virtues of a closer style of reading and the benefits and pleasures of an approach that, without at all ignoring social and cultural contexts, approaches them through a primary alertness to textual detail and literary history. This volume, including entirely commissioned work by a wide range of critics and scholars from across the profession in both Britain and North America, seeks to bring such forms of attention to bear on the immense variety of Tennyson's career by exploring the complex and multiple connections between Tennyson and other writers - his predecessors, his contemporaries, and his successors. Collectively, the essays describe an intricate network of affiliation and indebtedness, resistance and reconciliation. They provide a unique assessment of Tennyson's origins, work, and imaginative legacy as he enters upon his third century. Contents: Introduction by Robert Douglas-Fairhurst 1.
