Paperback. Zustand: Good. Across the Creek tells the stories of the more than 230 people who died during the 119 years of black powder manufacturing in the DuPont powder mills in Northern Delaware. Almost 300 explosions ripped through the quiet worker's communities during the 19th and early 20th centuries.Among the stories: one man toiled for fifty-five years making powder; another loss was the son of a wealthy and well known civic leader. One woman lost her father and her husband in two explosions. Another lost her husband and a son in the same blast. Several mothers gave birth to children after their father was killed in an explosion. A war hero came home from Europe only to die in a powder explosion. The stories are chilling, sad, heart-breaking, and ironic. The book was written to honor those who gave their lives during the beginning years of what would become one of the world's best known, often reviled, inventive and successful companies. Anyone who loves history and wants to learn more about the forgotten 'little guys' (and gals) who built this country will want to read this book, written by a guide at the Hagley Museum and Library, which highlights the DuPont black powder manufacturing story of America's first years. Across the Creek is the powdermen's own phrase; when one was killed in an explosion, they said he 'went across the creek.'.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This book explores the concept of resilience and its significance in responding to a rapid and ever-changing globalised world whilst critiquing its 'buzzword' status in contemporary times.Drawing on research from a range of educational settings, the book demonstrates that the resilience of individuals and their surrounding systems should not be viewed in isolation and that the interplay between individual resilience, community resilience and resilient societies is complex and symbiotic. On this basis, it illustrates that efforts to promote resilience would benefit from a systems approach capable of coping with this complexity.Using the ideas of agency and the power of self-determinism, a development of Bronfenbrenner's bio-ecological model is presented to illustrate the complexity of their interplay. Existing models of resilience are developed with the book offering the Dynamic Interactive Model of Resilience (DIMoR) as a way to analyse and support resilience which moves beyond a reductionist, descriptive and 'fashionable' presentation of resilience.…
