    No full text
    The Shaw volume contains much information, although it is not as detailed as the first three books. It is also more readable and wanders less often than the earlier ones. It covers the years of World War II, the admission of female students, the return of the veterans, the decision to move to Winston-Salem, the move itself, and the "fruitful years of the Tribble administration." One reviewer summarized: "Scores of names and dozens of pictures, as well as sections on student life, athletics and departmental histories complete the fabric of life at Wake Forest." A review by Linda Brinson (WFU '69) in the Winston-Salem Journal September 4, 1988, H6 concluded: "Perhaps the greatest strength of Vol. IV is that Shaw does what he states as his purpose in the preface: 'to give the whole picture of the life of the college.'" Wake Forest should be well pleased with this chronicle of the years that did so much to shape its future. Anyone with an interest in the college would find this new history a valuable source of both information and understanding. (J. Edwin Hendricks)Biographical information about the author is available in Linda Brinson, "Gentle Man of the Press," Wake Forest University Magazine, September 2, 2002. p. 46

    Fighting for the forests: a history of the Western Australian forest protest movement 1895-2001

    No full text
    As the first comprehensive study of Western Australian forest protest the thesis analyses the protest movement's organisation, campaigns and strategies. Its central argument is that the contemporary Western Australian forest protest movement established a network of urban and south-west activist groups which encouraged broad public support, and that a diversity of protest strategies focused public attention on forest issues and pressured the state government to change its forest policies. The forest protest movement was characterised by its ability to continually adapt its organisation and strategies to changing social and political conditions. This flexible approach to protest not only led to victories in the Shannon River Basin, Lane-Poole Reserve and old growth forest campaigns, but also transformed forest protest into an influential social movement which contributed to the downfall of the Court Liberal Government in 2001
