This interdisciplinary collection will appeal to the fields of anthropology, architecture, film and media studies, geography, urban studies, sociology, and cultural analysis. ![]() Tim McGrath, "Give Me a Fast Ship: The Continental Navy and America's Revolution at Sea" English | 2015 | ISBN: 0451416112 | EPUB | pages: 592 | 15.6 mb WINNER OF THE SAMUEL ELIOT MORISON AWARD FOR NAVAL LITERATURE * "A meticulous, adrenaline-filled account of the earliest days of the Continental Navy."-New York Times bestselling author Laurence Bergreen ![]() Adam Tompkins, "Ghostworkers and Greens: The Cooperative Campaigns of Farmworkers and Environmentalists for Pesticide Reform" English | ISBN: 0801456681 | 2016 | 248 pages | EPUB | 2 MB Throughout the twentieth century, despite compelling evidence that some pesticides posed a threat to human and environmental health, growers and the USDA continued to favor agricultural chemicals over cultural and biological forms of pest control.
