Step into the last days of 18th century Prussia as the followers of Simon Menno help reclaim the vast swamp land south of Danzig bringing their expertise from the Netherlands. Travel with the "Menno-nites" as they explore Catherine the Great's offer of free land in the newly conquered lands of what she calls "south Russia." Experience the tough choices the Czar presents a century later after they have helped make Ukraine the breadbasket of Eastern Europe. Follow along as they explore options in Canada and even the Red River Valley of Minnesota. When the choice is finally made to migrate, many families face the tough choice of leaving everything to start over in North America. Trace some of the many families, in particular the Quiring, Siemen, Harder, and Sawatzky families, that settle in Minnesota to raise a family, develop land never farmed before, deeded to them as homesteaders, then are severely tested by the Dust Bowl years known as the Dirty Thirties. Follow along as they go from candlelight to electrification, from outhouse to indoor plumbing, and windmills to running water.
The Brilliance of Charles Whittlesey

An essential biography of one of Ohio's most influential—but overlooked—historical figuresThe Brilliance of Charles Whittlesey offers the first full-length biography of one of the most outstanding and influential Americans of the 19th century, Charles Whittlesey (1808–1886). Whittlesey advanced numerous fields, including geology, exploration, history, archaeology, and military strategy. However, until now, much of Whittlesey's work has been treated as a mere footnote of American history and largely neglected by historians. Stanley M. Totten's recovery of Whittlesey's life and work relies on Whittlesey's own insights and private papers, which provide a unique window into his many talents and interests as well as the hardships he endured. This exhaustive volume uncovers—perhaps most significantly—Whittlesey's important geological discoveries. Notably, Totten describes how Whittlesey accurately determined the amount by which oceans lowered during the height of the Ice Age. His geological maps of Native American earthworks were informational and enhanced our understanding of these ancient structures, although, as Totten persuasively argues, other geologists have undeservedly been given credit for Whittlesey's work. Totten also highlights Whittlesey's contributions during the Civil War and his work as a preservationist of historic materials on both the national and local levels. Drawing extensively from papers housed in the Western Reserve Historical Society, The Brilliance of Charles Whittlesey is an overdue, exhaustive biography that will undoubtedly serve as an important foundational text for future scholarship into each of these areas.

Viruses that are transmitted via the fecal-oral route and may cause liver damage are known as enteric hepatitis viruses. These viruses, which include the hepatitis A and E viruses (HAV and HEV, respectively), infect millions of individuals worldwide and pose significant threats to public health. Written and edited by experts in the field, this collection from Cold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Medicine examines recent progress in our understanding of the biology and pathogenic mechanisms of HAV and HEV, as well as prospects for improving their control. Contributors explore the molecular characteristics and life cycles of HAV and HEV, their interactions with the liver and immune system, the clinical manifestations of the infections they cause, and their transmission via contaminated food and water. Additional topics include the geographic distributions of the various HAV and HEV genotypes, factors that influence their changing epidemiology, and the development of effective vaccines and vaccination strategies. The authors also discuss advances in cell-culture systems and animal models, as well as how studies of HAV and HEV may provide insight into other viruses and infectious diseases of the liver. This volume is therefore an essential reference for all virologists, immunologists, pathologists, clinicians, and public health professionals.

Whispers and Screams

Whispers and Screams

Seventeen short stories and novelettes compose Whispers and Screams. While these stories are from the realms of horror, science fiction, and fantasy, they are also stories about people, about loneliness, insanity, love, politics, philosophy, food, power, about human feelings and behavior in these dynamic times. A large number of the protagonists are minorities or women. Many of the stories owe their heritage to the black-and-white horror movies of the late thirties and forties and the B-grade science fiction of the fifties. "Proteus Rex" is about a genetically engineered life-form that adapts the attributes of animals (a lion's strength, a bird's wings) or whatever his survival needs and infinite appetites dictate. Having consumed all the animal life in a small rural community, he begins to eat people. Much of the story is about the local authority's attempt to identify and apprehend this menace, a significant challenge as Proteus Rex is an extradimensional being that can change his size to as small as an amoeba to as large as a blue whale. "Proteus Rex" is populated by a deep cast of characters, only a few of whom manage not to get eaten. Imagine the actress Lucy Liu portraying Ian Fleming's most shrewd creation, James Bond, 007. Only she's working for TSA-the Teleportation Security Administration-three hundred years in the future. This is after World War VI, and the United States has been fractured into several independent nations. The two Koreas have united and is running the world. Executive Action Officer Sun Park's mission is to capture or neutralize the perpetrators that sent and detonated an atomic bomb in the TSA X-port Freight Hub in Buenos Aires. This is the premise of "The Price of a Dog," an action-driven novella, a political science fiction thriller. In the short story "Slaves of the Cat Goddess," Buster, the main character (and stooge of General Wanamaker), is charged to take the mysterious cat Bast to a secret research base. Bast's size and ferocity force a crash landing on an uncharted tropical island inhabited by cannibals. Knowing that it was Buster who was responsible for her mutation, Bast not only protects him in this hostile world, but she sees that he is elevated, serving as the ambassador between the goddess Bast and the humanity she would enslave.
