VIRGINIA MILITARY INSTITUTE PRESERVATION MASTER PLAN EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The history of the Virginia Military Institute (VMI) has a significant impact on the state of the Institute today; this is evident in its architecture, landscape, culture, and traditions. The VMI Post is recognized as a National Historic District and the Barracks is a National Historic Landmark. Like so many institutions with long and identifiable histories, VMI has embraced its past and recognizes that preserving its physical character is an important aspect of protecting the integrity of the Post for future cadets, faculty, staff, and visitors to enjoy and learn from. In recognition of VMI dedication to preservation and its historical roots, the Institute was awarded a Campus Heritage Grant from the Getty Foundation in 2005. The purpose of the grant was to develop a Preservation Master Plan for the Post that identified existing conditions of historic resources; made recommendations for preserving and protecting those resources; developed strategies for integrating preservation into Post-wide decision-making; and produced guidelines for caring for and maintaining the historic resources of the Post. Additional guidelines for incorporating new development

    GEOGRAPHY IN THE JUNGLE: INVESTIGATING THE UTILITY OF LOCAL KNOWLEDGE FOR NATURAL RESOURCE MANAGEMENT IN THE WESTERN AMAZON By DAVID SEWARD SALISBURY A THESIS PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 2002 Copyright 2002 by David Seward Salisbury ACKNOWLEDGMENTS First, I thank my parents and siblings. I have been lucky to accompany them on many adventures and they have always been supportive of my own. Second, I thank Marianne Schmink, who has been a great advisor. She is hortatory, demanding and patient in equal measure, and I am grateful for the bumpy truck ride in Acre that brought us together, and me on the road to Gainesville, many summers ago. Third, I want to thank my uncle, Foster Brown; my tia, Vera Passos; and Valerio Gomes and the rest of the Florida/Acre mafia, who have made Rio Branco a most welcoming place. Fourth, I am indebted to my friends at Florida. I must especially recognize Valerio, Skee and Rich, who have been great friends in times good and bad. The Florida Ultimate team also deserves special recognition for providing a special experience away from the books. Fifth, I thank the people at INCRA, EMBRAPA and especially PESACRE who provided me with this great research opportunity and supported me throughout. Special thanks go to Cazuza Borges, who introduced me to Seringal São Salvador. Sixth, I thank my geography committee members, Drs. Binford and Smith, whose excellent teaching and sound advice translated to success in the field and whose criticism greatly strengthened the final product.

GEORGE MERCER BROOKE, JR. Professor of History Virginia Military Institute, Lexington, Va. On 5 November 1823, the Adjutant General in Washington ordered Lieutenant Colonel George Mercer Brooke of the Fourth Infantry to take four companies from Cantonment Clinch near Pensacola to Tampa Bay for the purpose of building a military post. Exactly three months later, Brooke reported from the Tampa Bay area that he had arrived and work on the post was under way. A study of this troop movement and the construction of the cantonment later called Fort Brooke gives some insight into the problems the army faced one hundred and fifty years ago. At that time the population of the country was only ten million and the immigration flood of the nineteenth century was as yet only a trickle. The population was predominantly rural, only seven per cent living in urban areas. The railroad era lay in the future. Missouri had just recently been admitted as the twenty-fourth state after a portentous struggle on the slavery issue, and the country was laboring to recover from the Panic of 1819 induced in large part by overspeculation in land.
