Rio Tinto in Australia charts the establishment and remarkable growth of Rio Tinto, including exploration in the 1950s, acquisition of the Mary Kathleen uranium deposit, and the 1962 combination with Consolidated Zinc to form Conzinc Riotinto of Australia (CRA). CRA was the major contributor to Australia's post-war mining industry. Comalco aluminium, Hamersley iron ore and the major Bougainville copper operation were all significant parts of the portfolio.Many individuals played a role in CRA's development, among them legendary mining figure Sir Maurice Mawby, and Oxford and Harvard-educated Sir Rod Carnegie, who ultimately left the company when his quest for CRA's independence and Australianisation fractured relations with London. RTZ and CRA combined in 1996 to form a dual listed company structure. The CRA name disappeared and Rio Tinto again became - as it was in 1954 - the identity of the Group in Australia. Many involved in the long and impressive growth of Consolidated Zinc and CRA saw this combination as the reassertion of control from London.... a revealing history of the post-war mining boom that changed the nation but also an insight into the politics of big business. The book says much that will be new to historians, commentators and leaders of the mining industry.Professor Geoffrey Blainey AC... an authoritative addition to Australian business history. What sets this work apart is the richness of the narrative, and the author's sophisticated understanding of the roles played by directors and senior managers in shaping this important multinational company ...David Merrett, Emeritus Professor, University of Melbourne... indispensable reading for anyone interested in Australia's mining history and its post-war economic development.David Lee, Associate Professor, University of New South Wales, Canberra... a very important contribution to good business histories in Australia. The dynamic between the Australian and the London-based executives reveals much about the challenges of running an increasingly global enterprise in the post 1945 era.Erik Eklund, Honorary Professor, Australian National UniversityDr Robert Porter worked in the corporate sector, including in resource companies and now researches and writes business histories. His publications include: Paul Hasluck. A Political Biography; Below the Sands. The Companies that Formed Iluka Resources; Consolidated Gold Fields in Australia, the Rise and Decline of a British Mining House, 1926-1998; The Path to Palladium. He lives in Melbourne.
Nowhere better than in the history of its railroads is the growth of the Old West revealed, and for Colorado the development of the Denver and Rio Grande Western epitomizes the changes that took place between 1870 and the present. Robert G. Athearn's intimate knowledge of the West has enabled him to write a gripping account of the famous narrow-gauge Denver and Rio Grande as it inched its way south, then turned west into the Rockies. By f1883 it had joined with the Rio Grande Western to become Colorado's only line across the mountains. The Dotsero Cutoff and the six-mile Moffat Tunnel put Denver on a transcontinental line for the first time. Twelve maps and fifty-five illustrations help tell the story.

Poems from the Río Grande

Readers of Rudolfo Anaya's fiction know the lyricism of his prose, but most do not know him as a poet. In this, his first collection of poetry, Anaya presents twenty-eight of his best poems, most of which have never before been published. Featuring works written in English and Spanish over the course of three decades, Poems from the Río Grande offers readers a full body of work showcasing Anaya's literary and poetic imagination. Although the poems gathered here take a variety of forms - haiku, elegy, epic - all are imbued with the same lyrical and satirical styles that underlie Anaya's fiction. Together they make a fascinating complement to the novels, stories, and plays for which he is well known. In verse, Anaya explores every aspect of Chicano identity, beginning with memories of his childhood in a small New Mexico village and ending with mature reflections on being a Chicano who considers himself connected to all peoples. The collection articulates the themes at the heart of all Anaya's work: nostalgia for the landscape and customs of his boyhood in rural New Mexico, a deep connection to the Río Grande, the politics of Chicanismo and satire aimed at it, and the use of myth and history as metaphor. Anaya also illustrates his familiarity with world traditions of poetry, invoking Walt Whitman, Homer, and the Bible. The poem to Isis that concludes the collection honors Anaya's wife, Patricia, and reflects his increasing identification with spiritual traditions across the globe. Both profeta and vato, seer and homeboy, Anaya as author is a citizen of the world. Poems from the Río Grande offers readers a glimpse into his development as a poet and as one of the most celebrated Chicano authors of our time.

The Gnomes are on the road. This time they aren't being chased. By anyone Well, maybe greed is riding shotgun, but they're the ones doing the chasing. Of untold fortune and glory The Lost Picman's Mine has long been the subject of bedtime stories and bar room chats. Or, in Grimbledung's case, a casual mentioning by a certain Gargoyle. Either way, Grimbledung is filled with avarice with a capital "AHHH ". Thanks to some hounding, his partner goes along to find the treasure, leaving two hopefully reformed Magican Guild Enforcers to run the shop. What could go wrong? On the road? Lots. What about back in Julesville? Lots. The gang has their hands full when some carnivorous Elves arrive to reclaim their stolen spices. Or else. And, it seems that an election is required to replace Big Julie, who had agreed to leave office once the threat of the Halfling invasion has passed. It has, by the way. But she's still in office. Now crowds are gathering in front of her school led by the mysterious Magnus Opus von Magnus. He's demanding an election. Or else. Did we mention the wedding of Cheri and Colossus- that's in the works as well. Or else. See? Everything's fine.
