Your guide to the people, places and events that made Gainesville
the thriving city and educational center it is today. Gainesville,
Florida, was established in the early 1850s in an area of Alachua
County known for cotton farming, cattle and citrus. It soon became
known for education, with many fine private schools. The arrival of
the railroads made it a crossroads town that grew to be the state's
fourth-largest city. The arrival in 1906 of what became the
University of Florida gave Gainesville the major state-supported
institution of higher education, and thereafter the city and the
university were inextricably entwined. The city has grown to be a
comfortable place to live, and the university is now one of the
largest in the nation, with an international reputation for
academics and sports.Local historian and UF Law School graduate
Steve Rajtar leads you through the decades with words and pictures.
An A-to-Z street guide is included to help you explore the historic
homes, churches and other sites of historic Gainesville on your
own.

Glaramara and Skiddaw en route. The guide divides the route into 5
stages of between 12 and 16 miles, but there is plenty of
opportunity to plan your itinerary for a more easy-going 7 to 8
days. This guidebook also provides useful information for every

Since at least 1939, when daily-strip caveman Alley Oop
time-traveled to the Trojan War, comics have been drawing (on)
material from Greek and Roman myth, literature and history. At
times the connection is cosmetic-as perhaps with Wonder Woman's
Amazonian heritage-and at times it is almost irrelevant-as with
Hercules' starfaring adventures in the 1982 Marvel miniseries. But
all of these make implicit or explicit claims about the place of
classics in modern literary culture.
Classics and Comics is the first book to explore the engagement of
classics with the epitome of modern popular literature, the comic
book. This volume collects sixteen articles, all specially
commissioned for this volume, that look at how classical content is
deployed in comics and reconfigured for a modern audience. It opens
with a detailed historical introduction surveying the role of
classical material in comics since the 1930s. Subsequent chapters
cover a broad range of topics, including the incorporation of
modern theories of myth into the creation and interpretation of
comic books, the appropriation of characters from classical
literature and myth, and the reconfiguration of motif into a modern
literary medium. Among the well-known comics considered in the
collection are Frank Miller's 300 and Sin City, DC Comics' Wonder
Woman, Jack Kirby's The Eternals, Neil Gaiman's Sandman, and
examples of Japanese manga. The volume also includes an original
12-page "comics-essay," drawn and written by Eisner Award-winning
Eric Shanower, creator of the graphic novel series Age of Bronze.

For your best adventures, use the best map. Madeira's favourite map
just got a whole lot better. Now in its 10th edition including the
new Palheiro golf development, goodbye to the abandoned Ponta Pargo
golf course, final sections of the VE3 road, loads of minor road
updating especially in the south west. For hikers we have added
several new highlighted walking routes. Madeira Tour & Trail
Map is a large 960mm by 700mm double sided map sheet. Super-Durable
edition comes with a 2 year adventurous use guarantee. Specialist
concertina map folding means the 960mm by 700mm double sided map
folds quickly to its 235mm by 120mm pocket size. This most detailed
map of Madeira includes our 'Tour & Trail' level of detail
ranging from major roads to secondary roads to minor roads to
streets and camino rural narrow country roads, plus dirt roads and
walking trails. Altitude background colouring is designed to
clearly show the altitude range when travelling across the island
by car or on foot. 100 metre and 50 metre contours are clearly
shown on the map along with a large number of individual height
points and all of the official 'Trig' points. Tour & Trail
attention to detail is legendary as is our useful symbol range
including miradors, picnic areas, petrol stations, bar/restaurants
and parking areas where you can pull off the road safely. You will
easily identify springs, caves, sports grounds, cemetries, churchs,
chapels, lighthouses, towers and forts, camping areas, wind
turbines, hotels etc. For adventurers on foot Tour & Trail Maps
are researched and designed by hikers for use by hikers. Our
comprehensive gps ground surveys produce the best mapping available
but the value of this on the ground research becomes even more
important when you leave the tarmac. All of our DWG walking routes
are accurately gps surveyed giving you confidence in the accuracy
of our Tour & Trail Maps. Madeira Tour & Trail Map includes
all the walking routes from 'Madeira Walks' volumes 1 & 2 by
Shirley Whitehead highlighted in Red while other published walking
routes (printed guide books and reliable web publications) are
highlighted in Green. It all adds up to the most useful map of
Madeira that you can buy anywhere. In use maps have a very tough
life so you will appreciate our specialist concertina map fold that
allows you to quickly open the map, and more importantly fold it
back up to its pocket size after use. Paper maps will always suffer
from the repeated unfolding, folding to the section you want to
use, and then refolding. We recommend everybody to obtain our
Super-Durable editions printed with 100% oxygenation inks on
Polyart by the UK's leading map printer, which produces a map that
feels like silk but will stand up to the roughest treatment of
outdoor adventuring and yet fold up like new at the end of your
adventure. Tour & Trail Super-Durable Maps are more expensive
than paper maps, but represent better value as they produce a
lightweight map that feels like silk while being both water-proof
and incredibly tough so that after even the toughest of adventures
your Tour & Trail Super-Durable Map will fold up like new.
Digital editions of Madeira Tour & Trail Map for phone apps and
Garmin users are available on the dwgwalking website.

The first species to be domesticated, dogs have been selectively
bred over thousands of years. Today they’re man’s best friend
– but while many are pets, many, too, are working animals: for
the police, for the blind, as guard dogs, as sheepdogs, pulling
sleds and as therapy animals. Arranged in chapters covering
physical characteristics, senses, lifecycle, communication,
behaviour and working dogs, Dogs is a hugely informative visual
celebration. From huskies to German shepherds, from collies to
Chihuahuas, Shih Tzu to Jack Russell Terriers, Labradors to
Bullmastiffs to Dachshunds, the book includes a huge range of
breeds. With fascinating captions on every page, even dog lovers
will learn something new. Dogs is a brilliant examination in 150
outstanding colour photographs.
On June 27, 1835, New Hampshire chartered the Boston & Maine
Railroad, and a juggernaut was born. By 1900, the B&M operated
some 2,300 miles of track in northern New England, having taken
over an astonishing forty-seven different railroads since its
inception. The B&M loomed particularly large in the Granite
State, where it controlled 96 percent of all tracks and was the
primary conveyance through the rugged heart of New England s most
formidable mountain range.
From the gravity-defying Mount Washington Cog Railway to logging
transport trains to the famous Depression-era Snow Train, "A
History of the Boston & Maine Railroad" traces the fascinating
history of New England's most renowned railway.
In this whimsically charming colouring book, 80 imaginative scenes
will come to life as you express your creativity. Featuring
coloured examples to follow if you wish, create new and interesting
fairy tale art and fill each page with colour. Whilst some designs
span across a double spread to fully capture a wider scene, others
stand alone on a single page.
