Ross, "Breaking the Blockade: The Bahamas during the Civil War" English | ISBN: 1496831349 | 2020 | 274 pages | EPUB | 4 MB On April 16, 1861, President Abraham Lincoln issued a blockade of the Confederate coastline. The largely agrarian South did not have the industrial base to succeed in a protracted conflict. What it did have―and what England and other foreign countries wanted―was cotton and tobacco. Industrious men soon began to connect the dots between Confederate and British needs. As the blockade grew, the blockade runners became quite ingenious in finding ways around the barriers. Destination Anthropocene: Science and Tourism in The Bahamas (Volume 7) (Critical Environments: Nature, Science, and Politics) by Amelia Moore 2019 | ISBN: 0520298934, 0520298926 | English | 216 pages | EPUB | 5 MB Destination Anthropocene documents the emergence of new travel imaginaries forged at the intersection of the natural sciences and the tourism industry in a Caribbean archipelago. Known to travelers as a paradise of sun, sand, and sea, The Bahamas is rebranding itself in response to the rising threat of global environmental change, including climate change. In her imaginative new book, Amelia Moore explores an experimental form of tourism developed in the name of sustainability, one that is slowly changing the way both tourists and Bahamians come to know themselves and relate to island worlds. |
