Publisher: History Press Library Editions
ISBN: 9781540206886
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 146
Book Description
Early promoters of Colorado s Western Slope would have had settlers believe the area was one of proper behavior and upstanding morality. But this was not the case.

From Charles Graham, whose jealous rampage in Grand Junction is still talked about today, and the mysterious Friday the thirteenth murder of Jeanette Morris to Abe C. Ong, the mischievous pioneer bootlegger of De Beque, and Riverside s Mrs. Barnes and her foul crime, History Sleuth D.A. Brockett reveals some of the most outrageous and remarkable crimes in Western Slope history."

A Guide to the Western Slope and the Outlying Areas
Author: Roger Lebovitz

ISBN: 9781937677978
Category :
Languages : en
Pages :
Book Description
It starts with the first ski race down the mountain, but quickly the Guide to the Western Slope and the Outlying Areas heads off into the woods, seeking the wisdom that can be found in the spaces between the trees. The Guide to these woods may somehow be encoded between the spaces that wind between the sentences and words in this remarkable and unique book, the same way a back country ski runs through the spaces between the trees. Lebovitz takes the reader deep into the Western Slope, a mythical land that spends the winter buried in snow, bringing back these essay-prose poems as proof of both sweeping majesty and intimate charm.

On the East-west Slope
Author: Attila Melegh
Publisher: Central European University Press
ISBN: 9789637326240
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 246
Book Description
Melegh's work offers a powerful analysis of the sociological and symbolic meanings of East-West in Europe after the end of the Cold War. While the fundamental poles of East and West remain, both their meaning and their relationship to one another have shifted profoundly since the late 1970s. Melegh exposes the underbelly of liberal characterizations of East-West, highlighting the polarizing effect of extreme nationalism and ethnic racism. The theoretical underpinnings of this work involve the ideas of preeminent theorists such as Karl Mannheim, Michel Foucault and more recently Maria Todorova and Iver Neumann. This work casts into fine relief how the "East-West Slope" oriented negatively from West to East has emerged from liberal characterizations of this project. The book analyzes the historical change in East-West discourses from a modernizationist type to a new/old civilizational one. In addition, this is one of the first attempts to link post-colonial analysis to developments in Eastern Europe.
