Taylor & Francis The Making of the American Landscape
Book SynopsisThe only compact yet comprehensive survey of the environmental and cultural forces that have shaped the visual character and geographical diversity of the settled American landscape.Trade Review"The skillfully interwoven essays in The Making of the American Landscape, Second Edition paint a broad but penetrating picture of the changing character of the continental United States as seen through the lens of landscape change. The volume is a testament to the importance of work in historical geography and a showcase for what it means to seek understanding of a place through the study of landscape."—Alexander Murphy, University of Oregon"This richly illustrated and engagingly written survey of American landscapes provides exactly the right education to begin to see and understand landscape in all its order and variety. The second edition adds some sparkling new chapters, updated information, and attractive photographic color to what is already the standard of excellence for American landscape studies."—John Agnew, University of California, Los Angeles "Michael Conzen has re-assembled a superb line up of authors renowned for their capacity to see detail and interpret the big picture. Chapters have been updated, especially through an expanded array of historical and contemporary views of landscapes, and several new authors make this an even more compelling text. "—Deryck Holdsworth, Pennsylvania State University "Everyone who has ever paused to wonder about the many historical features that survive in this sprawling country will enjoy the expertise as well as the enthusiasm that these authors bring to their topic in this second edition. The American landscape gains a whole new dimension."—Ellen Eslinger, DePaul University "With this second edition of The Making of the American Landscape, earlier essays have been substantively revised and new ones added to present critical new perspectives on topics that extend from early American Indian to contemporary mass culture and the utopian dimensions of sustainability. This impressive, wide-ranging history will be a necessary resource. "—Gwendolyn Wright, Columbia University "Only a second edition of Michael P. Conzen’s The Making of the American Landscape could be better than the first. Full color maps and photographs along with new chapters on religion, civil society, consumer and utopian landscapes provide fresh insights into how historical forces have physically shaped places and imbued them with meaning."—Anne Knowles, Middlebury College 'Michael Conzen has re-assembled a superb line up of authors renowned for their capacity to see detail and interpret the big picture. Chapters have been updated, especially through an expanded array of historical and contemporary views of landscapes, and several new authors make this an even more compelling text." – Deryck Holdsworth, Pennsylvania State University "Since its publication in 1990, The Making of the American Landscape has remained the best single-volume introduction to the country's cultural landscape mosaic." –Chris Wilson, University of New Mexico, USA"The Making of the American Landscape is, simply stated, an amazing book. It should be required reading for anyone interested in the evolution of landscape. It is also a fine text to be used in classes which focus on historical geography or landscape studies more broadly....There is not a single chapter that this reviewer found disappointing or uninteresting." – Dawn S.

Taylor & Francis Ltd The Politics of Ethnic Nationalism Afrikaner
Book SynopsisThe Politics of Ethnic Nationalism is the first significant local study of National Party and Afrikaner politics. By focusing on Stellenbosch as a university and a town, the book extends our understanding of the complex interaction between the GNP/HNP and various organizations of the radical right. The book illustrates, at a local level and using detailed materials, how identity was constructed through a process of excluding some (English, Jew, Coloured) and including others. In addition, it examines the ways in which Afrikaner nationalists of all shades of political opinion conceptualized their relationships with English-speaking South Africans and the ways that the rhetoric of republicanism and anti-imperialism were employed by nationalists. The study exposes the complex and Byzantine nature of Afrikaner nationalist politics, revealing the multiplicity of identities and ideologies co-existing within Afrikanerdom, the cross-cutting allegiances and overlapping loyaltTable of ContentsIntroduction: An Historiographical Survey 1.
