Farm and Factory
Author: Daniel Nelson
Publisher: Indiana University Press
ISBN: 9780253328830
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 278
Book Description
Farm and Factory illuminates the importance of the Midwest in U.S. labor history. America's heartland - often overlooked in studies focusing on other regions, or particular cities or industries - has a distinctive labor history characterized by the sustained, simultaneous growth of both agriculture and industry. Since the transfer of labor from farm to factory did not occur in the Midwest until after World War II, industrialists recruited workers elsewhere, especially from Europe and the American South. The region's relatively underdeveloped service sector - shaped by the presumption that goods were more desirable than service - ultimately led to agonizing problems of adjustment as agriculture and industry evolved in the late twentieth century.

Walking in Two Worlds
Author: Laura Dale
Publisher: FriesenPress
ISBN: 152555218X
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 366
Book Description
Walking in Two Worlds is a fascinating, authentic account of an individual’s encounters with the unexplained. Here is a collection of journal entries—spanning many years—that recount the author’s dreams, telepathic events, out-of-body experiences, visions, and spiritual encounters. Also depicted are occurrences of clairaudience, claircognizance, divination, precognition, psychometry, second sight, and many other mysteries of being alive. The author enhances her accounts with interpretations of the messages she believes these incidents contain. Her personal work is well supported by references to expert sources, photos, and excerpts from outside publications. Walking in Two Worlds is a standout for its authentic interest in connecting a community of psychics. “I quickly realized it wasn’t about me at all,” the author says. “It’s about shining a light into someone else’s darkness.”
