West Portal (The Agha Shahid Ali Prize in Poetry) Benjamin Gucciardi The University of Utah Press, Agha Shahid Ali prize in poetry, Salt Lake City, 2021

Winner of the 2020 Agha Shahid Ali Poetry Prize West Portal is the name of the neighborhood in San Francisco, California, where poet Benjamin Gucciardi grew up. It is also one of the names of the Pillars of Heracles—the entryway to the afterworld. Drawing on William Carlos Williams’s assertion that “the local is the only thing that is universal,” West Portal investigates the Bay Area’s urban and rural landscapes along with the memories and people that reside there. Interweaving the narrative of the death of the poet's sister with the environmental and socioeconomic realities of the current moment, the poems in West Portal illuminate the experience of loss, and the attempt to create meaning in the wake of devastation. Through poems that are prayerful, observant, elegiac, pained, dreamlike, philosophical, and compassionate, the book asks: What do we consider holy? What is virtue? What should any of us value about our relationship to place or our relationship with each other?

Interwoven : junipers and the web of being Rogers-Iversen, Kristen University of Utah Press ; Utah State Historical Society, None

Copublished with the Utah State Historical Society. Affiliated with the Utah Division of State History, Utah Department of Heritage & Arts. Throughout prehistory and history, junipers have influenced ecosystems, cultures, mythologies, economics, politics, and environmental controversies. In terms of their effects on human lives the juniper may be the most significant tree in the interior West. Interwoven explores these interconnecting aspects of junipers. Ghost beads, biotic communities, gin, tree masticators, Puebloan diapers, charcoal, folklore, historic explorers, spiral grain, tree life cycles, spirituality, packrat middens, climate changes, wildfire, ranching, wilderness, and land management policies are among the many different threads the book follows. These and other topics shed light on a fascinating organism, but the book is more than a compilation of facts. At once a scientific, experiential, historical, and metaphorical walk among junipers and their interrelationships, Interwoven may change readers' experiences with these trees and the natural world. Finalist for the Utah State Historical Society Best Book Award. Finalist for the 2019 ASLE Book Award for excellence in ecocriticism and environmental creative writing. Named a "notable book" by the prize committee of the 2018 Sigurd F. Olson Nature Writing Award.

Rivers, fish, and the people : tradition, science, and historical ecology of fisheries in the American West Pei-Lin Yu University of Utah Press; The University of Utah Press, Salt Lake City [Utah, 2015

Americas western rivers are under assault from development, pollution, invasive species, and climate change. Returning these eco- systems to the time of European contact is often the stated goal for restoration efforts, yet neither the influence of indigenous societ- ies on rivers at the time of contact nor the deeper evolutionary relationships are yet understood by the scientific world. This volume presents a unique synthesis of scientific discoveries and traditional knowledge about the ecology of iconic river species in the American West. Building from a foundation in fisheries biology and life history data about key species, the book reveals ancient human relationships with those species and describes time-tested Native resource management techniques, drawing from the archaeological record and original ethnographic sources. It evaluates current research trends, summarizes the conceptual foundations for the culturaland evolutionary significance of sustainable use of fish, and seeks pathways for future research. Geographic areas described include the Columbia Plateau, Idahos Snake River Plain, the Sacramento River Delta, and the mid-Fraser River of British Columbia. Previously unpublished information is included with the express permission and approval of tribal communities. This approach broadens and deepens the available body of data and establishes a basis for future collaboration between scientists and Native stakeholders toward mutual goals of river ecosystem health.

A gateway to Sindarin : a grammar of an Elvish language from J.R.R. Tolkien's Lord of the rings Salo, David University of Utah Press, Salt Lake City : University of Utah Press, 2007

From the 1910s to the 1970s, author and linguist J. R. R. Tolkien worked at creating plausibly realistic languages to be used by the creatures and characters in his novels. Like his other languages, Sindarin was a new invention, not based on any existing or artificial language. By the time of his death, he had established fairly complete descriptions of two languages, the "elvish" tongues Quenya and Sindarin. He was able to compose poetic and prose texts in both, and he also constructed a lengthy sequence of changes for both from an ancestral "proto-language," comparable to the development of historical languages and capable of analysis with the techniques of historical linguistics. In A Gateway to Sindarin , David Salo has created a volume that is a serious look at an entertaining topic. Salo covers the grammar, morphology, and history of the language. Supplemental material includes a vocabulary, Sindarin names, a glossary of terms, and an annotated list of works relevant to Sindarin. What emerges is an homage to Tolkien's scholarly philological efforts.

lgli/William H. Holt - The Balkan Reconquista and Turkey's Forgotten Refugee Crisis (University of Utah Press).epub

The Balkan Reconquista and Turkey's Forgotten Refugee Crisis William H. Holt; The University of Utah Press, Salt Lake City, 2019

During the Russo-Ottoman War of 1877–1878, Russian troops, Cossack auxiliaries, and local Bulgarians participated in what today would be called ethnic cleansing. Tensions in the Balkans between Christians and Muslims ended in disaster when hundreds of thousands of Muslims were massacred, raped, and forced to flee from Bulgaria to Turkey as their villages were sacked and their homes destroyed. In this book, William H. Holt tells the story of a people and moment in time that has largely been neglected in modern Turkish and Balkan memory. Holt uncovers the reasons for this mass forgetting, finding context both within the development of the modern Turkish state and the workings of collective memory. Bringing together a wide array of eyewitness accounts, the book provides unprecedented detail on the plight of the Muslim refugees in their flight from Bulgaria, in Istanbul, and in their resettlement in Anatolia. In crisp, clear, and engaging prose, Holt offers an insightful analysis of human suffering and social memory.

Alone on the Colorado Harold H. Leich, Roy Webb The University of Utah Press, Illustrated, US, 2019

Harold Leich set out on a westward journey in the summer of 1933. His travel narrative details his river trip down the Yellowstone River and the first descent by boat of the upper Colorado River from Grand Lake, Colorado, through Cataract Canyon, Utah. He was the first to push through this entire upper section, running rapids that had never known a paddle, rebuilding his kayak along the riverbanks, camping rough, and meeting ranchers and railroad workers in these remote regions. Leich's sudden change of fortune in Cataract Canyon, in the most isolated part of Utah, and his soul searching as he worked his way out of a perilous situation, will speak to anyone who has ventured beyond roads and trails and faced potential tragedy alone. Alone on the Colorado takes readers on the adventure of running rivers and riding the rails, while painting a unique and optimistic portrait of Depression-era America.

lgli/Margarita B. Marín-Dale - Decoding Andean Mythology (2016, University of Utah Press).pdf

Decoding Andean Mythology Margarita B. Marín-Dale The University of Utah Press, 1st, 2016

Decoding Andean Mythology is a comprehensive analysis of Native Andean oral tradition spanning five centuries. Based on twenty years of research and a wide range of scholarship, this book departs from the Cuzco-centered focus of many published Andean narratives and includes myths, stories, and folktales from diverse regions and ethnic groups. Among them are full translations of thirty-two ancient and modern Native Andean stories. Colorful illustrations and a comprehensive glossary of Quechua, Aymara, and Spanish loan words supplement the text. In an accessible and engaging discussion suitable for students, the author explores a number of recurring themes and characters in Andean stories. These include shape-shifting animals, the inversion of time-space (pachacuti), anthropomorphic and supernatural beings, and conflicting attitudes toward sexuality. The text also presents a fresh perspective on traditional, non-Western concepts such as huacas (sacred objects and places), suggesting some act as portals or mediating spaces between the natural and supernatural worlds. Of particular significance for current events is a lengthy chapter on social protest, explaining the rise of indigenous movements in the Andes and highlighting the contemporary use of Native Andean folktales as an avenue for social and political dissent. Winner of the 2018 Wayland D. Hand Prize by the American Folklore Society.

lgli/Mogollon Communal Spaces and Places in the Greater American Southwest [3875097].pdf

Mogollon Communal Spaces and Places in the Greater American Southwest Robert J. Stokes (editor), Katherine A. Dungan (editor), Jakob W. Sedig (editor) The University of Utah Press, S.l, 2023

This volume presents the latest research on the development and use of communal spaces and places across the Mogollon region, located in what is now the southwestern United States and northwestern Mexico. New data demonstrate that these spaces and places, though diverse in form and function, were essential to community development and cohesion, particularly during critical formative periods associated with increasing sedentism and farming, and during comparable periods of social change. The authors ask questions crucial to understanding past communities: What is a communal space or place? How did villagers across the Mogollon region use such places? And how do modern archaeologists investigate the past to learn how ancient people thought about themselves and the world around them? Contributors use innovative approaches to explore the development patterns and properties of communal spaces and places, as well as how and why these places were incorporated into the daily lives of village residents. Buildings and other types of communal spaces are placed into broader cultural and social contexts, acknowledging the enduring importance of the kiva-type structure to many Native American societies of the southwestern United States and northwestern Mexico.

American Indian history on trial : historical expertise in tribal litigation Hart, E. Richard Salt Lake City : The University of Utah Press,, Salt Lake City, 2018

"Drawing from forty-five years of experience, E. Richard Hart elucidates the use of history as expert testimony in American Indian tribal litigation. Such lawsuits deal with aboriginal territory; hunting, fishing, and plant gathering rights; reservation boundaries; water rights; federal recognition; and other questions that have a historical basis. The methodology necessary to assemble successful expert testimony for tribes is complex and demanding and the legal cases have serious implications for many thousands of people, perhaps for generations. Hart, a historian who has testified in cases that have resulted in roughly a billion dollars in judgments, uses specific cases to explain at length what kind of historical research and documentation is necessary for tribes seeking to protect and claim their rights under United States law. He demonstrates the legal questions that Native Americans face by exploring the cultural history and legal struggles of six Indian nations. He recounts how these were addressed by expert testimony, grounded in thorough historical understanding, research, and argumentation. The case studies focus on the Wenatchi, Coeur d'Alene, Hualapai, Amah Mutsun, Klamath, and Zuni peoples but address issues relevant to many American tribes"-- Provided by publisher

Strap on your snake chaps and slap on some sunscreen as biologist Jennifer Bov takes you out to the field in the company of biologists working on the frontlines of wildlife studies, botany, and resource management. This exuberant and entertaining collection of stories ranges from Myanmar to the Midwest, from Argentina to Alaska and many points in between, offering tales that are by turns thoughtful, funny, tragic, and just-plain-crazy. During five years of working in snake-ridden sloughs and rough northern seas, Jennifer Bov often asked herself 'Why am I doing this?' Realizing her own experiences were only the tip of the iceberg, she invited friends and colleagues to answer the same question. The result is stories that include deadly snakebites, a plague of marmots, special delivery skunk oil, bald eagle wrangling, and a mountain goat loose in the galley of a research vessel. These adventures are the details behind the data collected by these men and women driven to unlock natures truths. In The Back Road to Crazy , seasoned researchers and novices alike reveal the impulse to trade the comfort of a more sheltered career for demanding physical labor, whims of weather, and the company of unruly creatures.

Wrecks of human ambition : a history of Utah's Canyon Country to 1936 Nelson, Paul T. Salt Lake City: The University of Utah Press, Salt Lake City, Utah, 2014

The Red Rock Canyon Country Of Southeastern Utah And Northeastern Arizona Is One Of The Most Isolated, Wild, And Beautiful Regions Of North America. Europeans And Americans Over Time Have Mostly Avoided, Disdained, Or Ignored It. Wrecks Of Human Ambition Illustrates How This Landscape Undercut Notions And Expectations Of Good, Productive Land Held By The First Explorers, Settlers, And Travelers Who Visited It. Even Today, Its Aridity And Sandy Soils Prevent Widespread Agricultural Exploitation, And Its Cliffs, Canyons, And Rivers Thwart Quick Travel In And Through The Landscape. Most Of The Previous Works Regarding The History Of This Unique Region Have Focused On Either Early Exploration Or Twentieth-century Controversies That Erupted Over Mineral And Water Development And The Creation Of National Parks And Wilderness Areas. This Volume Fills A Gap In Existing Histories By Focusing On Early Historical Themes From The Confrontation Between Euro-christian Ideals And This Challenging Landscape. It Centers On Three Interconnected Interpretations Of The Area That Unfolded When Visitors From Green, Well-watered, Productive Lands Approached This Desert. The Judeo-christian Obligation To “make The Desert Bloom,” Encompassed Ideas Of Millenarianism And Of Indian Conversion And Acculturation As Well As The Old Testament Symbolism Of The “garden” And The “desert.” It Was Embodied In The Efforts Of Spanish Missionaries Who Came To The Canyon Country From The 1500s To The 1700s, And In The Experiences Of Mormon Settlers From About 1850 To 1909. Another Conflicting Sentiment Saw The Region Simply As Bad Land To Avoid, An Idea Strongly Held By U.s. Government Explorers In The 1850s. This Conclusion Too Was Reinforced By The Experiences Of Those Who Attempted To Settle And Exploit This Country. Finally, Though, The Rise Of Tourism Brought New Ideas Of Wilderness Reverence To The Canyon Country. The Bad Lands Became Valuable Precisely Because They Were So Distinct From Traditionally Settled Landscapes. In Pursuing The Conflict Between Euro-christian Ideals And An Arid, Rugged, Resistant Landscape Of Deserts And Canyons, Paul Nelson Provides In Clear, Engaging Language The Most Detailed Examination Yet Published Of Colonial Spain’s Encounter With The Region And Lays Out Some Of Mormonism’s Rare Failures In Settling The Arid West.

The disappearances : a story of exploration, murder, and mystery in the American West Scott Thybony The University of Utah Press, Illustrated, PT, 2016

In 1935, during the wind-swept years of the Dust Bowl, three people went missing on separate occasions in the rugged canyon country of southeastern Utah, a place “wild, desolate, mysterious.” A thirteen-year old girl, Lucy Garrett, was tricked into heading west with the man who had murdered her father under the pretense of reuniting with him. At the same time, a search was underway for Dan Thrapp, a young scientist on leave from the American Museum of Natural History. Others were scouring the same region for an artist, Everett Ruess, who had disappeared into “the perfect labyrinth.” Intrigued by this unusual string of coincidental disappearances, Scott Thybony set out to learn what happened. His investigations took him from Island in the Sky to Skeleton Mesa, from Texas to Tucson, and from the Green River to the Red. He traced the journey of Lucy Garrett from the murder of her father to her dramatic courtroom testimony. Using the pages of an old journal he followed the route of Dan Thrapp as he crossed an expanse of wildly rugged country with a pair of outlaws. Thrapp’s story of survival in an unforgiving land is a poignant counterpoint to the fate of the artist Everett Ruess, which the __New York Times__ has called “one of the most enduring mysteries of the modern West.” Thybony draws on extensive research and a lifetime of exploration to create a riveting story of these three lives.

Teaching in the field : working with students in the outdoor classroom edited by Hal Crimmel Salt Lake City: University of Utah Press, 1st, First Edition, FR, 2003

Taking students out of the classroom and into a variety of settings, ranging from remote wilderness sites to urban or built environments is now recognized as a valuable means of teaching ecological concepts and environmental values. But field studies are also a way of encouraging explorations across the curriculum, enhancing the teaching of life sciences, literature, and creative writing. Teaching in the Field is the first volume to specifically survey field studies conducted through colleges and universities. The essays, arranged into three sections, offer rationales, pedagogical strategies, and foundational advice and information that broaden and strengthen the collective knowledge of this increasingly popular means of instruction. The essays present theoretical information within engaging, candid narratives that report on various aspects of field experiences, whether hour-long excursions or month-long trips. Teachers of environmental studies, of English, composition, and creative writing, and of allied humanities and science disciplines, will find here a wealth of success stories and cautionary tales to guide them in envisioning their own outdoor classrooms.

Sally in three worlds : an Indian captive in the house of Brigham Young Virginia Kerns; University of Utah Press, Salt Lake City, 2021

In this remarkable and deeply felt book, Virginia Kerns uncovers the singular and forgotten life of a young Indian woman who was captured in 1847 in what was then Mexican territory. Sold to a settler, a son-in-law of Brigham Young, the woman spent the next thirty years as a servant to Young’s family. Sally, as they called her, lived in the shadows, largely unseen. She was later remembered as a “wild” woman made “tame” who happily shed her past to enter a new and better life in civilization. Drawing from a broad range of primary sources, Kerns retrieves Sally from obscurity and reconstructs her complex life before, during, and after captivity. This true story from the American past resonates deeply in the current moment, attentive as it is to killing epidemics and racial injustices. In telling Sally’s story, Kerns presents a new narrative of the American West.

The Salt Lake City 14th Ward album quilt, 1857 : stories of the Relief Society women and their quilt Nielson, Carol Holindrake Salt Lake City: University of Utah Press, 1st, First Edition, PS, 2004

Quilts are a lot like people. They are not overnight undertakings. They seldom turn out the way they were intended. Colors change when you run short of fabric. Edges misalign where you least expect it. When Carol Nielson and her husband inherited an album quilthalf a quilt, to be preciseshe had no idea of the journey on which the fragile folds of appliqus and painstaking stitches would call her. Created in 1857 by the women of the Salt Lake City LDS 14th Ward, the quilt was raffled off to raise money for the poor, the Perpetual Immigrating Fund, and for various Mormon charitable enterprises. Each block was designed and signed by one of the women, many of whom were wives of leading church authorities. Nielsons desire to find the quilts other half, and to find out more about the women whose legacy she hadboth literally and figurativelyinherited, led her back in time through countless lives of hardship, joy, and spiritual conviction in the face of adversity. Filled with detailed photographs of the quilt and images of those who stitched the blocks, this book is a stirring read, a rich and beautiful testimony to women whose hands shaped not only thread and cloth, but also a state, forging a community with their pioneer spirit. Winner of the Utah Book Award in Nonfiction.

The Spiral Jetty encyclo : exploring Robert Smithson's earthwork through time and place Loe, Hikmet Sidney, author University of Utah Press; The University of Utah Press, Salt Lake City, 2017

Copublished with the Tanner Trust Fund, J. Willard Marriott Library. Robert Smithsons earthwork, Spiral Jetty (1970), an icon of the Land Art movement of the 1960s and 1970s, is located on the northern shores of Utahs Great Salt Lake. Smithson built a masterpiece from local materials, one that spirals counterclockwise into the lake and appears or is submerged with fluctuations in the lakes locally red, saline water. The Spiral Jetty Encyclo draws on Smithsons writings for encyclopedic entries that bring to light the contextof the earthwork and Smithsons many points of reference in creating it. Visitors and armchair travelers, too, will discover how much significance Smithson placed on regional considerations, his immersion in natural history, his passion for travel, and his ability to use diverse mediums to create a cohesive and lasting work of art. Containing some 220 images, most of them in color, with some historical black and whites, The Spiral Jetty Encyclo lets readers explore the construction, connections, and significance of Smithsons 1,500-foot-long curl into Great Salt Lake, created, in Smithsons words, of mud, salt crystals, rocks, water. Winner of 15 Bytes Book Award for Art Book. Finalist for theUtah State Historical Society Best Book Award.

Demon river Apurímac : the first navigation of upper Amazon canyons John Calvin Giddings Salt Lake City: University of Utah Press, 1st Edition, First Edition, US, 1996

One-fifth of the world's river water rushes down the Amazon River into the Atlantic Ocean. A tiny thread of that monstrous surge of water makes an incredible 4000 mile journey. This thread, the Apurimac, is the source of the Amazon. It thaws reluctantly from a sweeping snow field 17,000 feet high in the cold, thin air of the Andes of southern Peru. It soon becomes a rivulet of clear water. From that point, it grows incessantly, crossing a flat pampa between bare, windswept hills. Then, at 13,000 feet, the Apurimac begins one of the most spectacular descents of any river in the world, slicing into the Vilcabamba range of the Andes, pulsing through narrow gorges and unparalleled canyons, crashing its way toward the jungle. This is the whitewater wilderness that beckoned J. Calvin Giddings, who led the first navigation of the river in 1974 and 1975. This book finally brings his unique story to light. Well-written, first-person account of the author's 1970s kayaking adventure through the Apurimac River gorge, from near its source above 4000 m to the jungle far below. Interspersed are descriptive accounts of the still little known canyon and its indigenous inhabitants--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 57.

End of watch : Utah's murdered police officers, 1858-2003 Kirby, Robert, 1953- Salt Lake City: University of Utah Press, First Edition, US, 2004

Since the Mormon pioneers arrived in Utah, fifty-six police officers have been murdered in the line of duty. They fell responding to robberies and domestic violence, during traffic stops and burglary investigations. Some achieved notoriety through connections to romanticized Wild West mythology or twentieth-century cult stand-offs, but most of these men have passed unnamed and unnoticed from history. In End of Watch Robert Kirby seeks to honor the memories of the fallen by telling their stories. Culled primarily from news reports -- standardized police reporting being a relatively recent invention -- Kirby brings to light the circumstances surrounding the deaths of each of the officers who paid the ultimate price in their efforts to keep the peace. Young and old, sons and fathers, brothers and husbands, each story resonates with bitter lessons about lack of training, procedural errors, and often just the bad luck of being in the wrong place at the wrong time. End of Watch is a testament to the tragedy of ordinary men who found themselves in extraordinary circumstances. Yet as Kirby points out in the foreword, "Tragic though this book may seem, the greater tragedy is that it will ever remain a work in progress."

Deadly landscapes : case studies in prehistoric southwestern warfare Glenn E. Rice; Glenn E. Rice Salt Lake City: University of Utah Press, First Edition, PS, 2001

Deadly Landscapes presents a series of cases that advance the rigorous examination of war in the archaeological record. The studies encompass examples from the Hohokam, Sinagua, Mogollon, and Anasazi regions, plus a pan-regional study of iconography covering the Colorado Plateau and the Rio Grande Valley. All of the cases focus on the narrow time frame from AD 1200 to the early-1400s, during which evidence for warfare is most pervasive. Contributors to this volume present varying definitions of warfare and use differing types of data to test for the presence of warfare. These detailed case studies give clear demonstration of a pattern of significant warfare in the late prehistoric period that will alter our understanding of ancient Southwestern cultures.

Debunking Creation Myths About America's Public Lands Leshy, John D.;University of Utah.; The University of Utah Press, Book collections on Project MUSE, Salt Lake City, 2018

In recent times several "creation myths" have gained currency about how the United States government came to own and manage—for broad, mostly protective purposes—nearly one-third of the nation's land. Controversies such as President Trump's shrinking the boundaries of Grand Staircase–Escalante and Bears Ears National Monuments and the armed takeover of the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge in Oregon by a ragtag militia group protesting U.S. ownership have brought these myths to the forefront, suggesting that public lands are a kind of centrifugal force driving Americans apart. Over the nation's long history, however, the opposite has nearly always been the case. In this essay, John Leshy debunks the myths that have contributed to the often polarized character of contemporary discussions of public lands. Recounting numerous episodes throughout American history, he demonstrates how public lands have generally served to unify the country, not divide it. Steps to safeguard these lands for all to enjoy have almost always enjoyed wide, deep, bipartisan support. Leshy argues that America's vast public lands are priceless assets, a huge success story, and a credit to the workings of our national government. But because these lands remain fully subject to the political process, each generation of Americans must effectively decide upon their future. This lecture was presented on March 14, 2018, at the 23rd annual symposium of the Wallace Stegner Center for Land, Resources and the Environment at the S.J. Quinney College of Law, University of Utah
