Book Synopsis Washington's Farewell by : John Avlon
Download or read book Washington's Farewell written by John Avlon and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2017-01-10 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A vivid portrait…and thoughtful consideration of George Washington’s wisdom that couldn’t be timelier” (Kirkus Reviews, starred review). A revealing look at the first President’s Farewell Address, a still-relevant warning against partisan politics and foreign entanglements. George Washington’s Farewell Address was a prophetic letter he wrote to his fellow citizens and signed from a “parting friend,” addressing the forces he feared could destroy our democracy: hyper-partisanship, excessive debt, and foreign wars. In it, Washington called for unity among “citizens by birth or choice,” advocated moderation, defended religious pluralism, proposed a foreign policy of independence (not isolation), and proposed that education is essential to democracy. He established the precedent for the peaceful transfer of power. Washington’s urgent message was adopted by Jefferson after years of opposition and quoted by Lincoln in defense of the Union. Woodrow Wilson invoked it for nation-building; Eisenhower for Cold War; Reagan for religion. Once celebrated as civic scripture, more widely reprinted than the Declaration of Independence, the Farewell Address is now almost forgotten. Yet its message remains starkly relevant today. In Washington’s Farewell, John Avlon offers a stunning portrait of our first president and his battle to save America from self-destruction. Washington’s Farewell “brings to light Washington’s goodbye by elucidating what it meant not only during the early days of the republic, but its lasting effect through the centuries” (Library Journal, starred review). Now the Farewell Address may inspire a new generation to re-center their politics and reunite our nation through the lessons rooted in Washington’s shared experience.
Book Synopsis America: The Farewell Tour by : Chris Hedges
Download or read book America: The Farewell Tour written by Chris Hedges and published by Simon & Schuster. This book was released on 2019-08-27 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chris Hedges’s profound and unsettling examination of America in crisis is “an exceedingly…provocative book, certain to arouse controversy, but offering a point of view that needs to be heard” (Booklist), about how bitter hopelessness and malaise have resulted in a culture of sadism and hate. America, says Pulitzer Prize–winning reporter Chris Hedges, is convulsed by an array of pathologies that have arisen out of profound hopelessness, a bitter despair, and a civil society that has ceased to function. The opioid crisis; the retreat into gambling to cope with economic distress; the pornification of culture; the rise of magical thinking; the celebration of sadism, hate, and plagues of suicides are the physical manifestations of a society that is being ravaged by corporate pillage and a failed democracy. As our society unravels, we also face global upheaval caused by catastrophic climate change. All these ills presage a frightening reconfiguration of the nation and the planet. Donald Trump rode this disenchantment to power. In his “forceful and direct” (Publishers Weekly) America: The Farewell Tour, Hedges argues that neither political party, now captured by corporate power, addresses the systemic problem. Until our corporate coup d’état is reversed these diseases will grow and ravage the country. “With sharply observed detail, Hedges writes a requiem for the American dream” (Kirkus Reviews) and seeks to jolt us out of our complacency while there is still time.
Download or read book Farewell, My Subaru written by Doug Fine and published by Villard. This book was released on 2009-03-24 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the award-winning director and star of American Hemp Farmer comes “an antic and engaging account of one man’s giant step toward a smaller carbon footprint” (St. Petersburg Times). “If you’re a fan of Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy-style humor—and also looking to find out how to raise your own your own livestock to feed your ice-cream fetish—Farewell may prove a vital tool.”—The Washington Post Like many Americans, Doug Fine enjoys his creature comforts, but he also knows full well that they keep him addicted to oil. So he wonders: Is it possible to keep his Netflix, his car, and his Wi-Fi, and still reduce his carbon footprint? In an attempt to find out, Fine ups and moves to a remote ranch in New Mexico, where he brazenly vows to grow his own food, use sunlight to power his world, and fuel his car with restaurant grease. Along the way he uncovers a slew of surprising facts about alternative energy, organic and locally grown food, and climate change. Whether he’s installing Japanese solar panels or defending the goats he found on Craigslist against coyotes, Fine’s extraordinary undertaking makes one thing clear: It ain’t easy being green.
Download or read book Bayou Farewell written by Mike Tidwell and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2007-12-18 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Cajun coast of Louisiana is home to a way of life as unique, complex, and beautiful as the terrain itself. As award-winning travel writer Mike Tidwell journeys through the bayou, he introduces us to the food and the language, the shrimp fisherman, the Houma Indians, and the rich cultural history that makes it unlike any other place in the world. But seeing the skeletons of oak trees killed by the salinity of the groundwater, and whole cemeteries sinking into swampland and out of sight, Tidwell also explains why each introduction may be a farewell—as the storied Louisiana coast steadily erodes into the Gulf of Mexico. Part travelogue, part environmental exposé, Bayou Farewell is the richly evocative chronicle of the author's travels through a world that is vanishing before our eyes.

Book excerpt: Paul Vrolijk recalls the last two months of his father’s life and the two months that followed his funeral in Farewell to my father. His experience included the emptying and selling of a family home that had been in the family for half a century. The book serves as a touching account of familial love, memories from youth, doubt and faith, God’s love and faithfulness working in and through all things, and the love and care of a village community. Moreover, it’s a celebration of gratitude. The author’s story encourages readers to think about what it means to die well, as well as what needs to be said and done when someone comes to the end of their life. It also serves as a helpful guide on what to expect if you’re preparing for the death of a loved one. The book serves as a bold proclamation that “nothing can separate us from the love of God.” In fact, God is always working even amid suffering, dying, and all the practical details that must be considered when someone dies

Book Synopsis Farewell to Visual Studies by : James Elkins
Download or read book Farewell to Visual Studies written by James Elkins and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 2015-10-28 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Each of the five volumes in the Stone Art Theory Institutes series brings together a range of scholars who are not always directly familiar with one another’s work. The outcome of each of these convergences is an extensive and “unpredictable conversation” on knotty and provocative issues about art. This fifth and final volume in the series focuses on the identity, nature, and future of visual studies, discussing critical questions about its history, objects, and methods. The contributors question the canon of literature of visual studies and the place of visual studies with relation to theories of vision, visuality, epistemology, politics, and art history, giving voice to a variety of inter- and transdisciplinary perspectives. Rather than dismissing visual studies, as its provocative title might suggest, this volume aims to engage a critical discussion of the state of visual studies today, how it might move forward, and what it might leave behind to evolve in productive ways. The contributors are Emmanuel Alloa, Nell Andrew, Linda Báez Rubí, Martin A. Berger, Hans Dam Christensen, Isabelle Decobecq, Bernhard J. Dotzler, Johanna Drucker, James Elkins, Michele Emmer, Yolaine Escande, Gustav Frank, Theodore Gracyk, Asbjørn Grønstad, Stephan Günzel, Charles W. Haxthausen, Miguel Á.

Book Synopsis Farewell Love! A Novel by : Matilde Serao
Download or read book Farewell Love! A Novel written by Matilde Serao and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2021-05-20 with total page 263 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Italian fiction is a true drama about disappointment, with little action but a fantastic psychological breakdown of characters and their circumstances. It is filled with themes of revolt, disillusioned remorse, and willful condemnation as a means to redemption. After a thoughtful reading of this remarkable work, one can find several other significant themes. The title, Addio, Amore! (Farewell, Love!), carries with it the anguished cry of a soul fated to pursue love in a world that seems to have none at all. The characters in this work are induced with sensitive power and sympathetic extent of spirit. The author of this work, Matilde Serao, was a Greek-born Italian journalist and novelist and was the first woman called to edit an Italian newspaper. She was also nominated for Nobel Prize six times. The pressure of a journalistic profession in no way restricted her literary career, and between 1890 and 1902, she produced seven superhit novels, including Farewell, Love!.
