RETENTION OF LOCAL TOWNS AND CITIES INTRODUCTION The National Forest Service, as a precursor to Elk introduction, has offered to purchase public land to create continuous habitat for migration. METHODS Research data for Urban Development was located through the Geographic Information System MapFactory, on Michigan Geography Maps compiled by Jennifer Stefannaci. These maps are available through the Michigan State University server. Specific methods used for the production of the Urban Development map were extremely simple, yet this particular map proved very valuable in the construction of additional maps used within this study. The original disturbance map was modified, as one town, measuring less than a kilometer square was removed from the map. This deletion was in response to purchase agreements that will possibly be made between the town and the Michigan Department of Natural Resources or the United States Forest Service. FINDINGS Any cities less than 1km were deleted on original maps found on the University GIS systems. An additional city was deleted, as it will be purchased by the United States Forest Service when development ensues. m.s.u.homepage

In this course, as a part of your last semester as an undergraduate, I hope to introduce you to the concept of research in part through critical evaluation of books. This is to give you practice in critically evaluating the work of others, and to help you think about ways to improve your own writing and reporting style. The book reviews also should help you to develop the confidence and experience in performing critical reviews in the future. In the end, you should read, review, and write better when it comes to technical material of a written nature. Finally, landscape architecture is a very broad field of study. By reviewing the literature, both past and present, one can gain an appreciation of the depth and breadth of issues, affecting landscape design, planning, and management. Whether one examines landscapes through the romantic eyes of the fictional writers or the scientific eyes of the researcher, all of these works contribute to our understanding, as Americans, of the landscape and its impact on humankind. Some of the books listed will be fun to read, while others will be more technical in nature. I hope you enjoy this opportunity to investigate the literature that surrounds us as landscape architects.

My Ph.D. dissertation is in the Carl Sauer-Roy Rapaport traditions. My teaching and reporting are grounded in foreign area research and social science survey methods. My objectives are to understand the lives of "ordinary" people and how they advance their own well-being, to understand the participation of ordinary citizens in urban and rural-based economies and how their participation can be assured through democratic rights, and to understand how households and small-scale enterprises, as the lowest units of civil society, empower themselves. In pursuit of my objectives, I have conducted field research on small-scale enterprises in Zambia, Zimbabwe, Botswana, Uganda and I have visited many other sub-Saharan African countries. Current Research: Presently, I am a Professor of geography and Adjunct Professor of

An Outline of American Geography MAP CHAPTER 5 THE MANUFACTURING CORE M anufacturing is an important economic activity in the United States. The evidence of this is everywherein articles of clothing, items of preserved food, residential structures, means of transport and communication, and many other things. In spite of the presence of items manufactured outside the country, domestic industry remains paramount, and it is rare for any medium-sized U.S. town to be without at least some local employment in manufacturing. The northeastern United States, excluding northern New England, is the country's single most significant region of manufacturing ( Map 4 : 45K). This region is loosely defined on three sides by the Ohio River Valley, Megalopolis, and the southern Great Lakes. The western margin of the region is less clear; it blends gradually with agriculture-dominant landscapes across southern Indiana, Illinois, and beyond. In spite of the region's moderate extent and the growth of manufacturing elsewhere, the Manufacturing Core continues to be of tremendous economic significance in American geography. Its factories produce most of the country's steel, as well as a significant percentage of its motor vehicles and motor vehicle parts. Most of the important ports, the main centers of communication, and the primary financial centers are within or near the region, and the country's political capital is on the immediate margins. The region includes the two largest clusters of coalescing metropolitan areas: Megalopolis, and the group of large urban regions between Milwaukee (Wisconsin) and Chicago (Illinois) on the west, and Cleveland (Ohio) and Pittsburgh (Pennsylvania) on the east.

The map shown above represents a synthesis of various independent field studies this century. These are in chronological order: the Linguistic Atlas fieldwork begun under the direction of Hans Kurath in the 1930's; the informal but extensive personal observations of Charles Thomas in the 1940's; the DARE fieldwork of the 1960's under Frederic Cassidy; and the Phonological Atlas fieldwork of William Labov during the 1990's. Although it may seem that a great amount of data has been collected over a short time span, the shifts in American dialects this century have been rapid enough to outpace the data collection. What appears to be a well-entrenched dialect marker today such as the Northern Cities Shift, may barely appear in earlier studiesaffecting both classification and mapping. Nevertheless, some basic observations on current American linguistic geography can be made.

At certain points the modern and older studies clearly conflict: Schuylkill County with its consistent monophthongization would have been better classified with the Lehigh Valley and Reading in 1939; today, its acceptance of the low back merger shows that it clearly belongs to the Anthracite region.

History Geography of St. Clair County St. Clair County Townships A Brief History of Michigan and St. Clair County by Tom Kephart French explorers, looking for a passage to China through the unexplored North American continent, visited what is now Michigan in the early 1600s. The native people gave the visitors some much-needed assistance during their journeys, building and navigating canoes, protecting and teaching them about the environment, and helping them forage and hunt for food. The Indians also traded animal furs for guns, powder, ammunition and other tools that moved their culture into the dawn of the Industrial Revolution. In 1679, the French explorer Robert Cavelier de la Salle and French missionary Père Louis Hennepin entered a body of water while sailing on the Griffon up from Lake Erie on what is now the Detroit River. The date was 12 August 1679, which was the day of the religious festival of Sainte-Claire, who founded the order of Franciscan nuns in the 13th century. Ste.-Claire was a contemporary and friend of St. Francis of Assisi. Père (Father) Hennepin held a mass, during which the newly-discovered lake was given the name Lac Sainte-Claire. In time, the river leading north out of Lac Sainte-Claire, the county that developed along it, and a city on the river all took the same name St. Clair. (The name was often spelled St. Clare in English in the 1700s, but most mapmakers had settled on the current spelling by 1840.)
