EBCI lands dialogue : final report / by Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians.Dialogue and Action Plan Team.; Catalpa Circle, LLC.; Cherokee Preservation Foundation.(CARDINAL)792692; Mainspring Conservation Trust.;

Includes bibliographical references and index."A shift over several decades from an older, pastoral landscape to one dominated by commercial and residential development threatens the ability of the Cherokee community to make choices about how it grows, develops, and follows its place-based community values. Action is required both to counter negative trends and also to take advantage of regional trends that can benefit the EBCI (Eastern Band of the Cherokee Indians) ... Cherokee community members and a handful of outside partners met, over a year in 2014-2015, to discuss the need for accessing lands off-Boundary beyond existing tribal holdings. Their dialogue focused on off-Boundary areas, in the regional "zone of influence," as identified in the recently-adopted Legacy Plan. As the Dialogue progressed, it became clear that it was not enough simply to look at securing any land. The importance of accessing a new base, specifically for resource-dependent businesses, heritage preservation, and green and cultural tourism, emerged."-- Pages 1-2.

AFT's significant contribution was bringing together farmers and environmentalists to protect working land from development, while instituting conservation management techniques. The organization helped develop the first conservation title in the farm bill and the USDA's Agricultural Conservation Easement Program (ACEP), which provides federal funding for local agricultural easement programs throughout the country. The book shows how the strategies used by AFT can be replicated to make further gains in protecting US farmland"--

Gertie : the fabulous life of Gertrude Sanford Legendre, heiress, explorer, socialite, spy / by Smith, Kathryn,1956-author.(CARDINAL)688294(CARDINAL)414083;

Includes index.Gertie lived a 20th century life full of fun, adventure, derring-do and drama. Read all about her Gilded Age girlhood, explorations on three continents, hijinks on the French Riviera with the Lost Generation, work for the OSS - the original American spy agency - during World War II, and her imprisonment by the Nazis. And that's less than half the story! Gertrude Sanford Legendre was a woman whose adventurous life spanned the twentieth century, beginning in Aiken, S.C. in 1902 and ending at her plantation outside Charleston in 2000. She was a daring and fearless woman whose adventures included being the first American woman in uniform held as a POW by the Germans during World War II. She also partied on the Riviera with the Murphys, the Fitzgeralds and Harpo Marx in the 1920s, undertook numerous challenging expeditions for natural history museums (and lead four) and befriended some of the greatest personalities of the 20th century, including Dr. Albert Schweitzer, General George S. Patton, Lilly Pulitzer, and Bing Crosby. In her later years, she became an ardent conservationist, fighting for habitat preservation on the South Carolina coast and leaving her 7,000-acre plantation in a conservation easement, a place where "the beasts can grow old and die." "Gertie" is a rollicking read about a woman who was not afraid to say yes to life! -- from Amazon.com
