Saving Fire Island from Robert Moses by Christopher C. Verga Pdf

Small coastal communities stand up to the giant of mid-20th century urban development in this chronicle of a true David and Goliath drama. With its unspoiled, tranquil shorelines, Fire Island has been an oasis for vacationers for well over a century. But from the late 1930s into the early 1960s, it was an obsession for Robert Moses, the political power broker and "master builder" who reshaped much of New York. His urban development projects helped create Long Island’s suburbs, and he dreamed of turning Fire Island into an extension of Ocean Parkway. Standing up to those ambitions were the seventeen individualistic communities of Fire Island, unified in their love for their sun-washed sandy beaches. To maintain a traditional way of life with limited access to motor vehicles, the community began the fight for federal protection through the creation of the Fire Island National Seashore.

The Fire Island National Seashore by Lee Koppelman,Seth Forman Pdf

This book provides a comprehensive account of the establishment of the Fire Island National Seashore and its management from 1964 to the present. Located off of Long Island s south shore, Fire Island is one of only five national seashores in the national parks system. Focusing on the major policy issues generated during the past forty years, Lee E. Koppelman and Seth Forman explore the tensions between local and national interests as well as the desire to conserve resources unimpaired for the benefit and use of future generations. The book includes a brief history of the island before its induction into the national parks system; a discussion of the battle to control erosion; the conflict between preservation and public access; the establishment and maintenance of many historical and cultural resources, including the William Floyd Estate, the Fire Island Lighthouse, Sailor s Haven/Sunken Forest, and High Dune Wilderness Area; and the Seashore s changing management and organizational structure.

Fire Island National Seashore, New York by United States. Congress. House. Committee on Interior and Insular Affairs. Subcommittee on National Parks Pdf

Modern society is ill. Many people sit in their work cubicle, in jobs that are stressful and unfulfilling. With a boss they don't like. With a mortgage they cannot afford. With relationships that aren't all they could be. With a work-life balance that's all work and no life. It's no wonder there's a stress and depression epidemic in the Western world. Many people have simply lost themselves. Is this you? If so, life doesn't have to be like this. You can choose to live life in a different way. Most people will say that they want more than anything to be themselves and to make a difference. This book is about how to be true to yourself in a society that more than ever pushes us to disguise who we are, so we end up pretending to be who we're not. How can I find a way to be myself? Join Mark Eyre to find your own real me, and along the way, pick up some practical strategies and approaches to help you express who you really are. It's time to join the journey of a lifetime, and in the words of George Eliot, to "be who you might have been."
