Located at the very heart of the Crystal Coast in Carteret County,
Beaufort represents the best of the old days and the old ways of
historic North Carolina. Seeking a natural, deep-water harbor,
settlers in the early 1700s chose the site of the former Coree
Indian village named Cwarioc, or "fish town," and upon this land,
developed a home that would become rich in maritime heritage.
Brimming with stories of pirates and privateers, suitors and
soldiers, merchants and fishermen, this memorable village attracts
thousands of tourists and newcomers each year, eager to explore its
charming waterfront shops and streets lined with elegant
residences. This unique volume takes readers on a remarkable
journey across Beaufort's 300-year history, bringing to life the
generations of men and women who shaped the town's personality and
guaranteed its longevity through their hard work and perseverance
along its coastal waters. Touching upon the major events that
played a role in the town's evolution, Beaufort, North Carolina
chronicles the life of the colonists under the direction of the
Lord's Proprietors, their participation in the revolt against
English rule and the following conflicts such as the War of 1812
and the Civil War, which brought the terrors of battle into their
backwaters, and the commercial and technological changes of the
twentieth century that fashioned the Beaufort of today.
An innovative analysis of Indigenous strategies for overcoming the
settler state. How do bureaucratic documents create and reproduce a
state’s capacity to see? What kinds of worlds do documents help
create? Further, how might such documentary practices and settler
colonial ways of seeing be refused? Settler Colonial Ways of Seeing
investigates how the Canadian state has used documents, lists, and
databases to generate, make visible—and invisible—Indigenous
identity. With an archive of legislative documents, registration
forms, identity cards, and reports, Danielle Taschereau Mamers
traces the political and media history of Indian status in Canada,
demonstrating how paperwork has been used by the state to
materialize identity categories in the service of colonial
governance. Her analysis of bureaucratic artifacts is led by the
interventions of Indigenous artists, including Robert Houle, Nadia
Myre, Cheryl L’Hirondelle, and Rebecca Belmore. Bringing together
media theories of documentation and the strategies of these
artists, Settler Colonial Ways of Seeing develops a method for
identifying how bureaucratic documents mediate power relations as
well as how those relations may be disobeyed and re-imagined. By
integrating art-led inquiry with media theory and settler colonial
studies approaches, Taschereau Mamers offers a political and media
history of the documents that have reproduced Indian status. More
importantly, she provides us with an innovative guide for using art
as a method of theorizing decolonial political relations. This is a
crucial book for any reader interested in the intersection of state
archives, settler colonial studies, and visual culture in the
context of Canada’s complex and violent relationship with
Indigenous peoples.
A comprehensive source of information on variations found in skin
diseases throughout the world is offered here. By considering the
overall problems of hereditary variables, climate fluctuations, and
therapeutic differences, this volume provides an appraisal of the
diverse factors that make up the composite picture of cutaneous
medicine. Divided by continent and then further organized into
countries or regions, each entry presents basic information on the
disease indigenous to the area, including its definition and
symptoms, etiology, clinical manifestations, histopathology,
appropriate laboratory tests, differential diagnosis, management,
prevention and references. Additional chapters discuss the
influence of travel and migration as well as of variables such as
climate. 38 full color plates superbly illustrate the many
variations of major dermatologic diseases. As technology has made
global travel far quicker and more commonplace, this book is a must
for all dermatologists, infectious disease specialists, and for all
family practitioners and general internists.
