"The first time I met Tony, he was reading a magazine—The Racing Pigeon—sitting on his back stoop in the afternoon sun. It wasn’t late, maybe two or two-thirty, but on this side of the river, the sun goes down early in November. He was, it appeared to me, trying to soak up as much of it as he could in the dying days of autumn. As it turned out, Tony spent most of his time on that stoop, but I wasn’t to know that at the time. Hidden from the street by the Kudzu vines, we talked for almost two hours. We spoke about his past, the history of the town, pottery-making and pigeon-racing. He spoke with a mixture of nostalgia, resignation and pride. Some of the stories he told me I knew were bullshit. Some of the stories he told me he knew were bullshit. It didn’t matter." —David Bernstein

 

The upper Ohio River Valley has a long history of people making things from its dirt. With a low iron content and great plasticity, the clay of the region has been mined and fired to make everything from bricks to colorful fiestaware. At the beginning of the twentieth century, so much pottery came out of the region that it was touted as the “pottery capital of the world.”  Yet that boosterism told only part of the story. As with many towns in what is now America’s Rust Belt, the glory days of manufacturing were never quite as robust as they are remembered to be. And here, where industry intersects with Appalachian culture, the veins of history can be particularly difficult to isolate.

Walker's Vein  combines color photographs of this region with brief texts that describe a single historical narrative from multiple perspectives. This approach provides a visual exploration of the towns, people, and topography of the region, but is also a statement on how memory and myth converge to create the truth of place and community. The viewer is not told if the people he quotes are real or fictional, or the specific geographic locations of the real-life towns he photographs. The photographs and short interrelated texts tell a history of Walker’s people, set against both pastoral and industrial landscapes, and their relationship to a sense of place.

David Bernstein is a photographer, a trained historian, and a lover of cartography.

Great product!
Size: 100 Count (Pack of 1), Style: Melatonin 1mg
This is the best melatonin if I have trouble waking up in the middle of the night, I take 1 mg. Under my tongue and I can fall back to sleep. Excellent product. It's good enough that I only take one. Much better than other brands I have tried!

So far it does help me with becoming drowsy for sleep
Size: 100 Count (Pack of 1), Style: Melatonin 1mg
So far this melatonin helps with making me drowsy, but I still take 1/2 a prescribed sleeping pill with it. Normally, within a half hour I am sleepy. I have not tried taking it by itself yet. I am a petite build, so I think my size factors in to how well it works for me. Flavor is okay. Easy to take melting it under my tongue. Price is okay. I like that it is sublingual and limited added ingredients. I don't usually take chamomile due to being sensitive to it in the past, but seems to be okay in this pill. It also seems to help me with staying asleep for a longer period of time.
