Jules Verne
Around the World in Eighty Days and Five Weeks in a Balloon

1994 y.
Publisher: Wordsworth Editions Limited
Description: Jules Verne (1828-1905) possessed that rare storyteller`s gift of being able to present the far-fetched and the downright unbelievable in such a way as effortlessly to inspire his reader`s allegiance and trust. This volume contains two of his best-loved yarns, chosen from among the sixty-four titles of `Les Voyages extraordinaires`, Verne`s pioneering contribution to the canon of modern Science Fiction. `Around the World in Eighty Days` (1873) relates the hair-raising journey made as a wager by the Victorian gentleman Phileas Fogg, who succeeds - but only just! - in circling the globe within eighty days. The dour Fogg`s obsession with his timetable is complemented by the dynamism and versatility of his French manservant, Passepartout, whose talent for getting into scrapes brings colour and suspense to the race against time. `Five Weeks in a Ballaon` (1863) was Verne`s first novel. It documents an apocryphal jaunt across the continent of Africa in a hydrogen… [detailed...]

Jules Verne
Around the World in Eighty Days

2000 y.
Publisher: Dover Publications
Description: Taking up a challenge from his whist partners, a mysterious English gentleman named Phileas Fogg wagers half his fortune and abandons his quiet domestic routine to undertake a daring feat: to circle the globe in a mere 80 days, an achievement unheard of in the Victorian world. Fogg and Passepartout, his devoted manservant, avail themselves of virtually every known means of transportation in their wild race against time. All the while, a devious detective dogs their every step and introduces fresh obstacles. The resourceful Fogg faces each new trial with unshakable aplomb, through a constantly shifting background of exotic locales-from the jungles of India, a Chinese opium den, and a Japanese circus to a full-throttle train ride under attack by Sioux and a bloodless mutiny aboard a tramp steamer. The most popular of Jules Verne`s fantastic adventure stories, Around the World in Eighty Days first appeared as a newspaper serial in 1872, much to the delight of a world… [detailed...]

Arp: Painter, Poet, Sculptor

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Hans, or Jean, Arp (1886–1966) is internationally renowned as one of the foremost sculptors and visual artists of the twentieth century. A founder member of the Dada group, he was also associated with Surrealism and with Concrete Art and Minimalism. Such acclaim has overshadowed the fact that he considered himself above all a poet. This book, the first major English-language study of Arp in nearly half a century, is also the first to reveal that Arp’s practices as poet, painter, and sculptor are not only complementary but mutually dependent facets of a coherent aesthetic strategy. Eric Robertson discusses Arp’s lifelong practice of moving freely between his different expressive forms and his two languages (French and German), and his tendency to alter his earlier works. Examining major works in the light of recent critical and theoretical perspectives, the book addresses key questions relating to Arp’s practices and reappraises his relationship to the… [detailed...]

Arresting Time: Erich Lessing, Reportage Photography, 1948-1973

2005 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionErich Lessing is a legend in photography. Born in 1923 in Vienna, he became a photo-reporter for Associated Press in 1947, and in 1951 he became one of the earliest members of the legendary Magnum photo cooperative. His remarkable 1950s images documenting post-World War Europe, and particularly his pictures of the 1956 Hungarian Revolution, garnered worldwide admiration. Lessing`s works always revolve around the human condition at the moment when power and powerlessness come face to face,when the joy of living is suddnely overclouded with pain. His photographs seize the opportunity to recount an instant of history that will never be repeated. This monumental book is a tribute to Lessing`s talent as a photojournalist and a visual record of a time of turmoil and great change. Lessing has received international honors, including the American Art Directors` Award, the Grand Austrian State Prize for Artistic Photography, and many others. 400 duotone photographs.

Arrivals and Departures

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: This book offers a visually arresting artistic vision of the symbiotic relationship between man and the urban environment. `36 Chambers`, the title of the series is inspired by the classic martial arts movie `Enter the 36 Chambers of Shaolin` the story of which inspired the debut album by Wu-Tang Clan. Drago plans 36 titles in the series the creative brief of which is that artists may only use black and white and a single colour of their choice. Logan Hicks is a New York-based stencil artist whose cutting-edge and pioneering work explores the constantly changing dynamic of the urban environment. Originally a screenprinter, Hicks gained notoriety for his uncanny ability to capture the sometimes mundane cycle of city life in an evocative and haunting, yet refined way with his hand sprayed stencils. `Empty` represents the artistic culmination of Hicks` work, travel, thoughts, and ideas - everything that has made up his life - over the past five years.

Description: Book Description Beyond the Arrow Mountains, where winds blow bitter chill, across the Arrow Ocean lies a town called Arrowville, where every pointed person had a pointed point of view, and every point in Arrowville was always just askew. In Arrowville, the arrows argue all day long, except for an agreeable girl named Barb. When Barb runs away from home, she encounters a family of targets vacationing in Arrowville. The Targets become the target of mistrust, leading to a clamorous climax of chaos and confusion, but in the end Barb and the Targets convince the town that there are certain ideas upon which everyone can agree. Animator and first-time author Geefwee Boedoe makes his debut with a sly and delicious comedy of errors, featuring lollypops and something even sweeter -- friendship. [detailed...]

Description: Ars Magica (`The Art of Magic`) is the award-winning roleplaying game that focuses on wizards who are as powerful as the ones we know from legend and literature, and the land of Mythic Europe, where those legends are real. The rules encourage players to develop their characters over long periods of time, and make the covenant, the home base of the characters, as central to the stories as any individual character. Troupe-style roleplaying allows players to take on the roles of different characters in different stories, so that the players have equal access to power even though the characters do not. This new edition is rewritten to improve the rules for existing players, and to be more attractive and accessible to new audiences. [detailed...]

Arsenal of World War II: The Political Economy of American Warfare, 1940A?1945

2004 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Prolific munitions production keyed America`s triumph in World War II but so did the complex economic controls needed to sustain that production. Artillery, tanks, planes, ships, trucks, and weaponry of every kind were constantly demanded by the military and readily supplied by American business. While that relationship was remarkably successful in helping the U.S. win the war, it also raised troubling issues about wartime economies that have never been fully resolved. Focusing on the mobilization of national resources for a truly global war, Paul Koistinen analyzes all relevant aspects of the World War II economy from 1940 through 1945, describing the nation`s struggle to establish effective control over industrial supply and military demand--and revealing the growing partnership between the corporate community and the armed services. Koistinen traces the evolution of federal agencies mobilizing for war--including the National Defense Advisory Commission, the Office of Production… [detailed...]

Arsenal: The Football Facts

Publisher: —
Description: Arsenal FC is the longest-serving club in the top flight of the professional English Football League, and in its 120-year history has proven itself to be an enduring force with a huge fanbase and many titles and accolades to its credit. From it humble beginnings in 1886 in a field in Woolwich, to the dizzying heights of the new Emirates stadium and the glamour and wealth of Premiership football, the club is steeped in history and its astounding record speaks for itself - 13 League Championships, 10 FA Cups, two League Cups, and both the European Cup Winners` and UEFA Cups. The Gunners have also completed `the double` on three historic occasions. Carrying them to such successes have been some of the game`s greatest ever players-Cliff Bastin, Charlie George, Pat Rice, Frank McLintock, as well as modern icons like Tony Adams, Ian Wright, Dennis Bergkamp, and Thierry Henry. Guiding them from the touchline has been a formidable line-up of managers including Herbert Chapman, Bertie Mee,… [detailed...]

Arsene Wenger: Pure Genius

2008 y.
Publisher: John Blake
Description: Few can match the tremendous impact that Arsene Wenger has had since his arrival at Arsenal. In his 12 seasons at the club, the world-class Frenchman has developed the Gunners into a team capable of challenging for top domestic and European honors every year. His three Premiership titles—two of which came in Double winning campaigns—are evidence of Wenger`s unique tactical skill and his famous ability to spot talented young spccer players. After a modest playing career in France, Wenger gained managerial experience in his homeland with Nancy and Monaco before taking on a stint at Japanese side Grampus Eight. The lure of the English league, though, was too strong in 1996 and Arsene agreed to fill the vacant post at Highbury. Arriving almost unknown to English football, his incredible achievements since then have shown that Arsene at Arsenal was indeed destined to be a successful fit. Inspiring the likes of Dennis Bergkamp, Patrick Vieira, and Thierry Henry to produce the best form of… [detailed...]
