  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Diaries and reminiscences of women on the Oregon Trail : a study in consciousness Author: Kesselman, Amy Year: 1974 This study is an attempt to discover how women participating in the mid-nineteenth century migration to Oregon viewed the westward journey and themselves in relationship to it. It is not a survey of the responses of all women in the westward movement, but, rather, an exploration of the perspective of those women who left a written record of their perceptions or recollections. The thesis focuses on the diaries and reminiscences of women travelling, primarily but not exclusively, in the years 1851-1853. The introductory material consists of a review of the existing historical literature on women and the West, and a discussion of the methods and assumptions used in the thesis. Following this is a short sketch of the history of the migration to Oregon. The major part of the thesis is organized around five themes which emerge from women’s diaries and reminiscences.

  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Describing a new environment: Lewis and Clark and enlightenment science in the Columbia River Basin Author: Lang, William L. Year: 2004 As part of a special issue of the 'Oregon Historical Quarterly,' examines the scientific aspect of the Lewis and Clark Expedition, focusing on the gathering, cataloging, and describing of plants and animals in the Columbia River Basin. Instructed by Thomas Jefferson to gather information on new species of plants and animals, Meriwether Lewis and William Clark collected specimens as they crossed the Continental Divide and entered the Columbia River Basin. Although Lewis generally held a negative view of the Indians the expedition encountered, he recorded their use of fish, plants, and game animals, and the Corps of Discovery traded with the Indians for food. Lewis and Clark stayed for some time at the Great Falls of the Columbia, Fort Clatsop on the coast, and Camp Chopunish on the Clearwater River in Idaho, noting the edibility and nutritional quality of previously unknown plants such as camas, cous, and other root foods. They wrote directly and without interpretation, fulfilling the goal of gathering scientific information Title: Describing a new environment: Lewis and Clark and enlightenment science in the Columbia River Basin Author: Lang, William L.

  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Development of Human Body Flight Author: Kelsay, Connor Bryce Human body flight is a relatively young sport with a largely undocumented history. Human body flight is an umbrella term for any sport involving maneuvering one’s body in a meaningful way through a column of relative wind. Human body flight includes skydiving, which was the origin of human body flight, as well as BASE jumping, wingsuiting, canopy flying, and indoor skydiving. The recent origin of skydiving as well as the fact that there are relatively few skydivers worldwide created a rich environment to write this thesis, which is likely the first attempt to record the recent history of sport skydiving and human body flight. The focus of this research was in-depth interviews with some of the most important skydivers to make contributions to the sport since its beginning in the 1950’s. These sources were used to document the development of human body flight as a sport and lay the foundation for historical documentation of skydiving. This thesis details the origin of skydiving, the major equipment changes that allowed the sport to flourish, the introduction of tandem skydiving and its effect on business and sport diversification, wingsuiting, indoor skydiving, and the effect of advertising on human body flight.
