Book excerpt: "Celebrate one of the most beloved park systems in the nation. This special collection is a testament to photographer Bill Draper's appreciation of Richmond's most distinctive urban oasis, the James River Park System. These diverse views of the Parks and the Richmond skyline were captured on and off the beaten path in all four seasons, from vantage points that are not always seen by the everyday Parks visitor. As these photos reveal, Bill's appreciation for the Parks' beauty is a year-round passion. He can be found taking photos from sunup to sundown on both the hottest days of summer and the iciest days of winter. Bill says the secret to his success lies in covering between four and ten miles at a time, sometimes taking seventy-five to one hundred photos a day, hoping for a winning shot. Along with nature lovers and Richmond devotees, we invite you to celebrate the unmatched beauty of one of the most beloved river park systems in the nation. Royalties and the author's net proceeds from sales of the book will be donated to the Friends of the James River Park, allowing them to continue to conserve, protect, and enhance Richmond's 600-acre paradise"--

Book Synopsis Transforming the James River in Richmond by : Ralph Hambrick
Download or read book Transforming the James River in Richmond written by Ralph Hambrick. This book was released on 2020-04-06. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The James River is the centerpiece of Richmond, but by the mid-twentieth century it had been abused and neglected. Eagles and sturgeon had nearly disappeared, water-powered industry was abandoning it and the river was a sewer. Today, the river draws visitors to its wooded shorelines, restored canal and feisty rapids. At the local level, this transformation was the result of citizen action, public-private partnerships, difficult decisions by governmental leaders and the hard work of thousands of passionate advocates and volunteers. Local author and lifelong river watcher Ralph Hambrick chronicles the events, projects and controversies that brought about the dramatic change and lends a critical eye to the results.
