Read the excerpt from the introduction to Wheels of

Change

When I was a kid, I took great pleasure in jumping on my

bike and riding to the corner candy store about half a mile

away. Although I had no knowledge of the part the bicycle

had played as a vehicle of change for turn-of-the-20th-

century women, I was acutely aware that it allowed this

1960s girl a unique measure of independence. On my bike,

I could break free of the bonds that held me in my

neighborhood to go buy Necco Wafers and candy

necklaces and Atomic FireBalls. If I felt particularly

adventurous, I could even ride a bit farther for a fresh ice-

cream cone at Applegate Farm

although few humans per year are attacked by polar bears, any individual attack can be terrifying and even fatal. the warming of arctic regions has allowed the intrusion of humans into the polar bears’ habitat, increasing the danger of harmful contacts. remaining alert and using precautions can humans avoid a negative encounter with a polar bear. traveling together and staying close to the group can humans avoid bear attacks. certain weapons, including nonlethal ones such as pepper spray, are effective against polar bears. once a bear has decided to attack, however, nothing can be done.

the civil war was the bloodiest conflict in the history of the united states. more than 600,000 soldiers lost their lives. the fighting took place in many different cities and throughout the countryside. the wounded often suffered acute pain while in the field hospitals. they all should have asked for better care. william hammond, the surgeon general of the union army, created a new system of sanitary field care. if people do not accept hammond as the most important person from the civil war, they have no understanding of the war.
