This book is a first-person; pedagogical reflection on what the author – an applied philosopher with an appointment in a professional school – has learned about being a teacher and a student; over a thirty-five-year career in a «public ivy» university. This narrative candidly recounts a series of life-changing; intellectual; and emotional insights gleaned over three decades from students; colleagues; scholars; and mentors. The author’s personal story traces the struggle to create a passionate spirituality of teaching; one that reframes traditional notions of religion and spirituality; as well as one that attempts to correct conventional misunderstandings of postmodernism. Nash’s story is every educator’s story – lived in unique ways at every level of teaching.

The book is broken down into areas of the state so it's easy to find parks near me. The history of each park is highlighted with pictures of the civil war which really brings it to life. Initially I found this book at my local library but wanted a copy of my own for weekend outings.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful.

Must Get for the true Civil War Historian.By R C ThomsonVery detailed history of various Civil War battles that took place in Georgia. I was not aware of all of the many individual conflicts.Any true historian of the Civil War should include this as part of their Library. Thank you.
