Описание:
An illustrated history of the American city's evolution from sparsely populated village to regional metropolis.
American Urban Form -- the spaces, places, and boundaries that define city life -- has been evolving since the first settlements of colonial days. The changing patterns of houses, buildings, streets, parks, pipes and wires, wharves, railroads, highways, and airports reflect changing patterns of the social, political, and economic processes that shape the city. In this book, Sam Bass Warner and Andrew Whittemore map more than three hundred years of the American city through the evolution of urban form. They do this by offering an illustrated history of "the City" -- a hypothetical city (constructed from the histories of Boston, Philadelphia, and New York) that exemplifies the American city's transformation from village to regional metropolis.
In an engaging text accompanied by Whittemore's detailed, meticulous drawings, they chart the City's changes. Planning for the future of cities, they remind us, requires an understanding of the forces that shaped the city's past.

Описание:
Hope on Hold offers insight into an ordinary American's political perspective and the value of speaking truth to power as she navigates the shameless world of the Trump administration.
Staying silent enables corruption. Raising our collective voice commands change. At this moment in America, hope might be on hold, but it has not yet been extinguished. We decide our future. We decide who we are and when all Americans make the decision to stand up, speak out, and take action, hope will rise again.
