Description

Frederick Weyerhaeuser and the American WestThe Weyerhaeuser name looms large in Minnesota, Wisconsin, Washington, and Arkansas, attached to paper mills, cabinet factories, and vast tracts of land, both forested and cut over. Frederick Weyerhaeuser, the man who started the lumber empire, significantly shaped the American economy and landscape from Wisconsin westward in the nineteenth century. A complex and private man, Weyerhaeuser emigrated from Germany in 1852 at the tender age of eighteen.

The Weyerhaeuser name looms large in Minnesota, Wisconsin, Washington, and Arkansas, attached to paper mills, cabinet factories, and vast tracts of land, both forested and cut over. Frederick Weyerhaeuser, the man who started the lumber empire, significantly shaped the American economy and landscape from Wisconsin westward in the nineteenth century.

A complex and private man, Weyerhaeuser emigrated from Germany in 1852 at the tender age of eighteen. In just a few years, he would be a prominent lumberman, organizing partnerships among competing companies, rationalizing the business, and then making the largest timberland purchase in the history of the United States.

Author Judith Koll Healey narrates the life of this extraordinary man through newly available resources: his extensive correspondence and journal entries as well as the letters and diaries of family members, friends, and business associates from around the country. She frames Weyerhaeuser's many commercial opportunities and business decisions within both the family's internal dynamics and world events: war and unrest, economic upswings and downturns, and western expansion and eastern urbanization. Throughout, Healey offers a thoughtful perspective on his achievements as well as the limitations of his vision for the expansion of the American West.

Judith Koll Healey has been a philanthropic professional for thirty years and has lectured internationally on the topic of art and the unconscious. She is the author of two novels. Char Miller is the W. M. Keck Professor of Environmental Analysis at Pomona College, Claremont, California, and author of Gifford Pinchot and the Making of Modern Environmentalism.

Cure for Men with Active Underarms
Scent: Sandalwood & Amber, Size: 3.2 Ounce (Pack of 2)
I was hesitant to buy Huron deodorant because of the price and because I am not familiar with the brand. ChatGPT reported that Huron is a reputable product manufactured by two brothers with an impressive story and commitment to the product line for men. My concern and issue is always with perspiration but recently, my usual brand of antiperspirant degraded in quality, ingredients or both and I found myself sweating in environments where I typically shouldn't. This forced me to look for new protection. It has been nearly a month now and I am finding that I am dry and fresh with Huron Aluminum-Free Deodorant for Men - Sandalwood & Amber. I was pleasantly surprised. The real test will be summer in Florida but considering the various temps I have experienced in the last 4 weeks, I am confident Huron will keep me clean and dry. I recommend giving it a try for all men. The stick lasts long so the value is worth the price.
