193 pp.; 22.8 x 15.4 cm.; sewn bound; black-and-white; edition size unknown; unsigned and unnumbered; offset-printed Transcript of a symposium on Postmodernism that took place online in October 2001. Edited with an introduction by Maurice Berger. Contributions by Maurice Berger, Maxwell Anderson, Ian Berry, Dan Cameron, John Car…lin, Donna De Salvo, Steve Dietz, Wendy Ewald, Ann Eden Gibson, Jennifer González, Teresa Grandes, Chrissie Iles, Caroline Jones, Kellie Jones, Mason Klein, Michael Leja, Simon Leung, Catherine Lord, Barbara Buhler Lynes, Nicholas Mirzoeff, James S. Moy, Olu Oguibe, Yvonne Rainer, Aleta M. Ringlero, Robert Rosenblum, David A. Ross, Jerry Saltz, Michele Wallace, and Jonathan Weinberg. Includes selected bibliography and participant biographies. "In October 2001, a few weeks after the tragic events of September 11, an international group of scholars, artists, and curators debated the issue of postmodernism in an online symposium on the Georgia O'Keeffe Museum website. The questions raised by the personal testimony and analysis of symposium participants about the nature of reality and representation, about the appropriateness of irony and cynicism in times of crisis, about the potential of culture to effect social change, about the limits of free expres-sion-were as important to grasping the social and cultural complexities of a wounded nation coping with the reality of September 11 as they were to a discussion of postmodernism." -- from book's back cover Fine. As New. Covers and contents clean and unmarked.

THE BIG BEND OF THE RIO GRANDE: A GUIDE TO THE ROCKS, LANDSCAPE, GEOLOGIC HISTORY, AND SETTLERS OF THE AREA OF BIG BEND NATIONAL PARK (Guidebook 7), Ross A. Maxwell, softcover, illustrated (B/W photos), various maps and illustrations in pocket attached inside back cover, 1968. BOOK CO…NDITION: very good.

The wraps are in good condition (edge crinkling). 10 x 6 ¾, 138 pages, 18 ounces XX Ross Maxwell (1904-1993) served as the first superintendent of Big Bend National Park, from the establishment of the park in 1944 through 1952. Born near Sparks, Oklahoma on June 9, 1904, Ross Maxwell attended the University of Oklahoma and earned two degrees there. He received a Ph.D. in geology from Northwestern University in 1936, and later that year moved to the Big Bend to participate in a geological survey of the region for the National Park Service. Following the closure of the CCC camp in Big Bend in 1937, Maxwell worked at National Monument sites in Arizona. Well versed with the area, Maxwell was seen as a logical choice to serve as the first superintendent of Big Bend. When he arrived on the job in July 1945, he supervised four employees and had an annual operating budget of $15,000. In the words of his successor, Maxwell presided over "the real rough-and-tumble beginnings of park establishment." At the time, the park had no paved roads, no electricity, and the nearest telephone was 100 miles away. While superintendent, Maxwell laid out the route of the road today named in his honor to highlight the more spectacular geologic features on the west side of the park. After leaving the National Park Service in 1952, Maxwell taught at the University of Texas until his retirement. Until the end of his life Maxwell maintained a relationship with the Big Bend and is remembered for his vocal support for the region.
