Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Kansas Boy: The Memoir of A. J. Bolinger offers the twenty-first-century reader delightful and revealing insights on life during an era of dramatic change in American history. Bolinger describes those years as 'bursting with energy, wild with ambition.' The Kansas of his childhood and young adulthood was a place where life was lived at a rapid pace: investors pursued fortunes as town developers, settlers sought to establish prosperous farms and ranches, and reformers tried to create an ideal society. A. J. opens his account with a vividly detailed description of the prairie itself, including how the frontier settlements of Kansas were in the process of becoming established communities. Born and raised in Elk County, Kansas, he tells stories of ranching and cattle drives. Retelling some of the legends of early Kansas, he debunks more than a few frontier myths. As he moves toward adulthood his accounts of farming and small-town life grow increasingly aware of the agricultural crisis of the 1880s and 1890s faced by farmers and small-town businesses as they struggled with the growing power of corporations, in particular the railroads. In doing so he offers ground-level insights into the appeal of the Populist movement and the rise of the People' Party. The challenges result in the Bolinger family's move to the city of Topeka where A. J. attends Washburn College. As a college student he helps temperance activist Carry Nation wage her antisaloon campaign and goes to Washburn's new law school. His first step in pursuing what would be a lifelong career in the law is to replicate his family's and his era's pattern of moving to where new opportunities lay: the Oklahoma territory.A. J. Bolinger (1881-1977) offers today's reader a deeply felt memoir with keen insights and thoughtful commentary that is by turns startlingly progressive and deeply conservative. He offers us a richer understanding of life on the prairies and plains of the last decades of the nineteenth century and the first decade of the twentieth century. A.J.

Large Softcover. Condition: Fine. An exceptional copy. Binding tight and square, pages clean, bright, and unmarked. 1999 Large Softcover. x, 260 pp. Black-and-white photographs, illustrations, and diagrams throughout. From as early as 10,000 years ago, the place we now know as Useppa Island has been visited by people. Useppa became an island about 6,500 years ago, beginning a tradition of seasonal use by fishing people that would last for six millennia. Abandoned about 800 years ago, it was re-occupied in the eighteenth century by Spanish-Cuban fisherfolk who fished with Native Americans. This era came to an end in the 1830s when the U.S. asserted control and deported Indians to the West. Useppa played important roles in the Seminole Wars, the Civil War, and the early-20th-century Florida Land Boom era. A prime destination for the tarpon fisher, it was also the residence of Barron Collier, who built a broad-based development, transportation, resort, and communications business. It served briefly in 1960 as a training camp for Cuban expatriates, and in the 1960s and early 1970s as a fishing resort. The last quarter of the twentieth century saw the restoration of the island and its emergence as the Useppa Island Club. Learn about the incredible archaeology, history, and ecology of this tiny island, a place that played pivotal roles in military, economic, and social developments that affected millions of people. Detailed reports of archaeological findings and rich historical accounts are illustrated with drawings and photos. This book will be enjoyed by anyone interested in south Florida's past. Includes: An Introduction to Useppa Island; The Archaic Period on Useppa Island: Excavations on Calusa Ridge; Useppa Island in the Archaic and Caloosahatchee Periods; Seasonality and Subsistence in a Southwest Florida Estuary: A Faunal Analysis of Precolumbian Useppa Island; Precolumbian Use of Plants on Useppa Island; Precolumbian Human Skeletal Remains from Useppa Island; Useppa's Cuban Fishing Community; Archaeology of Useppa Island's Nineteenth and Twentieth Centuries: Calusa Ridge and Collier Inn Middens; The Recent History of Useppa Island; The Road Less Traveled: Excerpts from an Interview with Garfield Beckstead; The Archaeology of Useppa Island: A Summary; Index.
