Book First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Good. First Edition. In this engaging volume of autobiographical reminiscences, Obert Clark Tanner traces his personal journey from rural Utah boyhood, through years of struggle to obtain an advanced education and achieve financial independence, and finally, to the business success and philanthropies of his later years.Tanner was born September 20, 1904, to Annie Clark and Joseph Marion Tanner. Obert's father, exiled to Canada because of his practice of polygamy, was a fading presence in the life of his son. From an early age, Obert assumed responsibility for contributing to the support of his mother. She, in turn, instilled in him a profound respect for intellectual pursuits and the value of human freedom.As a boy, Tanner learned habits of hard work on his uncle's farm, on railroad and construction crews, and in a lonely season herding sheep for his father in the Canadian Rockies. Despite reservations about his ancestral faith, he served a mission for the LDS church in a Germany recently devastated by the First World War. His soul-searching attempts to balance faith and reason and to reconcile human potential with human suffering led him to a lifelong interest in the example of Jesus Christ.In debt after his mission and European tour, Tanner came home to a job teaching seminary for his church. An urgent desire to pay off his obligation so that he could return to school inspired his entrepreneurial spirit. He began selling seminary graduation pins and class rings from the back of his car - and so founded the O.C. Tanner Company. Balancing his teaching and writing assignments with his studies at the University of Utah, Tanner continued to develop his business, becoming increasingly convinced that he could reach true intellectual freedom only through financial security.For the rest of his life he juggled twin passions: education and business. In the early years of his marriage to Grace Adams, Obert studied and taught at Stanford and Harvard universities, commuting back to Salt lake City to supervise the growing Tanner Company, on its way to becoming one of the largest manufacturers and retailers of corporate recognition awards in the country. In 1945 he assumed a faculty position at the University of Utah where he taught each morning for twenty-nine years, spending afternoons and weekends in his business pursuits.His remarkable partnership with Grace and his intense personal friendships with a diverse circle of business, academic, church, and civic leaders helped him transcend business reversals and family tragedies. He received numerous honorary degrees, was a Fellow of Cambridge and Oxford universities, and a member of the British Academy. In 1978 he permanently endowed the distinguished Tanner lectures on Human Values, which are presented annually at several universities in England and the United States. Among his many national and international awards are the United Nations Peace Medal (1978) and the National Medal of Arts conferred in Washington, D.C. (1988). Obert Tanner died October 14, 1993, in Palm Springs, California.

Softcover. Condition: Good. First Edition. From approximately the first to the fourteenth centuries AD the people now referred to as the Anasazi inhabited parts of Utah, Colorado, Arizona, and New Mexico. Their rock art and architectural ruins are well known, but the arid climate of the region also preserved artefacts such as loomed clothes, baskets, and sandals. This book presents a colour-illustrated catalogue of over 300 examples of Anasazi sandals in the Utah Museum of Natural History, together with a brief introduction to the archaeology of the region and materials and weaving techniques.

Book
Softcover. Condition: Good. Harold Baxter Liebler, Episcopal priest, came to the Utah strip of the Navajo Reservation in 1942 to establish St. Christopher's Mission near Monument Valley. In a land of stunning beauty and amazing isolation, Liebler worked ceaselessly to improve health and educational standards until his death in 1982.Covering the years 1942-62, Boil My Heart for Me is a description of one person's life in the remote Utah strip at mid-century. Liebler's humorous, self-effacing account describes the establishment of St. Christopher's, day-to-day encounters with local Navajos and Anglos, and his efforts in the face of endless adversity to mediate the enormous gap between two cultures. In his spiritual work, Liebler combined Christian and Native American approaches, walking a fine line between Anglo and traditional Navajo values.The story of H. Baxter Liebler is an essential piece in the mosaic of Four Corners history.
