All The Stars Came Out That Night

2005 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book Description In the tradition of iconic literary baseball novels such as The Natural, Bang the Drum Slowly , and The Brothers K comes a mythic tale about 1930s stars Dizzy Dean, Satchel Paige, and the greatest game ever played. Narrated by gossip columnist Walter Winchell, All the Stars Came Out That Night paints a vivid and moving portrait of Depression-era baseball?its raw joy and elegance but also its cursing, boozing, womanizing, and racism, and its odd relationships with bootleggers, racketeers, Hollywood stars, kidnappers, and even Dominican dictators. The date was October 20, 1934, just days after Diz?s Cardinals won the World Series. The place was Boston?s Fenway Park, under portable lights. The money behind it was Henry Ford?s, who yearned to see an all-white (and non-Jewish) team defeat the black all-stars. And the force behind it all was Clarence Darrow, the legal genius who pulled the political levers to… [detailed...]

Craig R. Whitney
All The Stops: The Glorious Pipe Organ and Its American Masters

2004 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionFrom the mid-19th to the mid-20th century, organ music was wildly popular in America. Organ builders could hardly fill the huge demand for both concert hall and home organs. Organ players developed cult followings and bitter rivalries. One movement arose to restore to American organs the tonal clarity and precision that instruments of the baroque period had, while another took electronic organs to rock concert halls, where younger listeners could be found. In his critically acclaimed book, New York Times journalist and editor - and passionate amateur organist - Craig Whitney brings the colorful history of the American pipe organ to life. Each book also contains a bonus CD with Whitney`s witty and wise introduction to the magnificent mechanics and majestic music of the pipe organ. The result is a joyful celebration of a remarkable instrument that will delight organ buffs, music fans, and general readers alike. [detailed...]

All Theater Is Revolutionary Theater

2005 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionAll Theater Is Revolutionary Theater is the first book to consider why, in the Western tradition (and only in the Western tradition), theatrical drama is regarded as its own literary or poetic type, when the criteria needed to differentiate drama from other forms of writing do not resemble the criteria by which types of prose or verse are ordinarily distinguished. Through close readings of such playwrights as Beckett, Brecht, Buchner, Eliot, Shaw, Wedekind, and Robert Wilson, Benjamin Bennett looks at the relationship between literature and drama, identifying typical problems in the development of dramatic literature and exploring how the uncomfortable association with theatrical performance affects the operation of drama in literaryhistory. Bennett?s historical investigations into theoretical works ranging from Aristotle to Artaud, Brecht, and Diderot suggest that the attempt to include drama in the system of Western literature causes certain specific… [detailed...]

Description: Christopher Timothy played James Herriot in the beloved BBC series `All Creatures Great and Small.` Here Timothy reprises his role as the young country vet in this third collection of Herriot stories. While training to be a Royal Air Force pilot in the midst of WWII, Herriot muses on his life in the Yorkshire dales. Sit back with a cup of tea as Timothy tells you funny, gentle, and occasionally sad tales about characters such as local farmers with broad accents, the posh Mrs. Pomphrey, whose overfed Pomeranian passes gas, and the Ministry of Agriculture officials, who rake James over the coals for inept form-filling. Timothy develops countless individual voices with different class accents, and all are perfect. An absolute joy. [detailed...]

All This Heavenly Glory : Stories

2005 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Amazon.comIn All This Heavenly Glory , Elizabeth Crane`s second collection of interconnected stories, readers are taken on an amusing, if slightly disjointed journey through the life of Charlotte Anne Byers, a spunky six-year-old who grows into a cynical, yet cautiously optimistic adult. Those who enjoyed Crane`s debut, When the Messenger Is Hot , will surely recognize and appreciate her sharp-witted humor and emotional honesty, but new readers may be put off by her somewhat rambling writing style. When we first meet Charlotte Anne, she is in the middle of penning a seven-page personal ad that is actually one long sentence, complete with tons of semi-colons and a few alphabetical lists thrown in for good measure. The ad itself is quite hilarious, it begins with a physical description and ends with a hilarious tribute to Owen Wilson, however, the lack of sentence structure may begin to confuse readers after about two pages. This first story is a template for much of… [detailed...]

All Those Summers artfully blends McPherson`s vivid word pictures with the period photography of David Darling and Tim McCullough and the spectacular contemporary imagery of young Zak Noyle.

A postwar plunge in farm prices stretched into a twenty-year agricultural depression.

These changes brought mixed results, but the years between the world wars marked a turning point in the struggle of upcountry women to shape their own lives. New industry and the intervening hand of big government, intruding on once insular communities, forced new choices and redefined the roles of women in this region.

Description: In his award-winning novels and stories, John McGahern (one of “the greatest Irish writers”— The New York Times Book Review ) explores the ordinary lives of men and women to reveal the intricate workings of the human heart and mind. Now, in All Will Be Well , he turns to his own life, telling the story of his childhood in the Irish countryside and the beginnings of his life as a writer. McGahern grew up the eldest of seven children in County Leitrim, where North and South meet under the Iron Mountains. His early years were marked by his father’s violent nature, the selflessness of his mother—a teacher of uncommon independence—and the tragedy of her death when McGahern was only nine. With extraordinary poignancy, he describes her and how her love remained a source of strength for him and his siblings, helping them to survive their father’s tyrannical rule and, ultimately, enabling them to break free into their own lives. … [detailed...]

Popular imagery of cute animals, adorable children, barbecue iconography for dad, funky florals, and Santas of every stripe grace these pages. A thoughfully wrapped present is a gift in itself, and All Wrapped Up! is the perfect package to celebrate the popular designs of the most visually exuberant decade of all. [detailed...]

All You Need Is Love to Dismantle an Atomic Bomb: How the Beatles &, U2 Changed the World

2007 y.
Publisher: Continuum International Publishing Group
Description: True, it was before my time, but the Beatles were the sociological and cultural phenomenon of the twentieth-century. In the 1960s, the musical messiahs from Liverpool pioneered a new fulfi lling era of music based on the simple concepts of love, peace and enlightenment. Seventy-three million spectators and 43% of all television sets in the country witnessed the Beatles` first appearance in the United States. The crime rate amongst American teenagers dropped to virtually zero that evening. The most popular, repeatedly covered, infl uential and enduring rock group of all time made rock and roll an artistic medium with recognizable images and idols. In the mid-80s…U2 was reaching global fame with The Joshua Tree, and `With Or Without You` was the hottest thing on MTV, you remember, back when they actually showed music videos. A few years later, `Desire` was aired just prior to Rattle And Hum`s release in theatres. I was immediately hooked. Listening to the record`s introductory… [detailed...]
