Book excerpt: With the completion of the world's first skyscraper in Chicago in 1885, the modern city skyline was born. A result of American technology and ingenuity, the 180-foot steel-framed Home Insurance Building rose above the city, and Americans have been reaching higher ever since. From Boston, steeped in history, to Las Vegas, a modern mirage in the desert, to Honolulu, America's paradise, each city has its own story. 'Skylines' takes us cross country and back in time to witness the steady growth of our great nation-city by city. For even the most well-seasoned air traveller, a city emerging from beneath the clouds is a compelling sight. Though the perspective is different for those arriving in cars, trains, on bicycles, or on foot, the first view of a city is always memorable. Throughout history, cartographers and explorers, photographer and artists have produced meticulous panoramas of urban areas-from the decks of ships, aloft in hot-air balloons, or perched on the side of a high hill. This sumptuous volume showcases the skylines of 48 great American cities with the spectacular panoramic photographs of Blakeway World-wide Panoramas.James Blakeway and Chris Gjevre have travelled the world photographing cities and other major attractions, waiting for the perfect time to take to the skies and capture each subject at its best. Complementing these images are historical photographs and bird's-eye-view maps reflecting each city's distinct character. The book completes its spectacular tour with a well-travelled historian guiding the reader through each city, offering atmospheric written portraits to accompany the antique photos and stunning Blakeway panoramas.

Book Synopsis Today's Sounds for Yesterday's Films by : K.J. Donnelly
Download or read book Today's Sounds for Yesterday's Films written by K.J. Donnelly and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-04-08 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years, there has been something of an explosion in the performance of live music to silent films. There is a wide range of films with live and new scores that run from the historically accurate orchestral scores to contemporary sounds by groups such as Pet Shop Boys or by experimental composers and gothic heavy metal bands. It is no exaggeration to claim that music constitutes a bridge between the old silent film and the modern audience; music is also a channel for non-scholarly audiences to gain an appreciation of silent films. Music has become a means both for musicians and audiences to understand this bygone film art anew. This book is the first of its kind in that it aims to bring together writings and interviews to delineate the culture of providing music for silent films. It not only has the character of a scholarly work but is also something of a manual in that it discusses how to make music for silent films.

Book Synopsis Black Baseball, 1858-1900 by : James E. Brunson III
Download or read book Black Baseball, 1858-1900 written by James E. Brunson III and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2019-04-22 with total page 1402 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is one of the most important baseball books to be published in a long time, taking a comprehensive look at black participation in the national pastime from 1858 through 1900. It provides team rosters and team histories, player biographies, a list of umpires and games they officiated and information on team managers and team secretaries. Well known organizations like the Washington's Mutuals, Philadelphia Pythians, Chicago Uniques, St. Louis Black Stockings, Cuban Giants and Chicago Unions are documented, as well as lesser known teams like the Wilmington Mutuals, Newton Black Stockings, San Francisco Enterprise, Dallas Black Stockings, Galveston Flyaways, Louisville Brotherhoods and Helena Pastimes. Player biographies trace their connections between teams across the country. Essays frame the biographies, discussing the social and cultural events that shaped black baseball. Waiters and barbers formed the earliest organized clubs and developed local, regional and national circuits. Some players belonged to both white and colored clubs, and some umpires officiated colored, white and interracial matches. High schools nurtured young players and transformed them into powerhouse teams, like Cincinnati's Vigilant Base Ball Club. A special essay covers visual representations of black baseball and the artists who created them, including colored artists of color who were also baseballists.

Book Synopsis Who REALLY Killed Martin Luther King Jr.? by : Phillip F. Nelson
Download or read book Who REALLY Killed Martin Luther King Jr.? written by Phillip F. Nelson and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2018-05-01 with total page 792 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the most infamous and devastating assassinations in American history, the murder of civil rights leader Martin Luther King Jr., was also one of the most quickly resolved by authorities: James Earl Ray was convicted of the crime less than a year after it occurred. Yet, did they catch the right person? Or was Ray framed by President Lyndon B Johnson and FBI Director J Edgar Hoover? In Who REALLY Killed Martin Luther King, Jr.?, Phillip F. Nelson explores the tactics used by the FBI to portray Ray as a southern racist and stalker of King. He shows that early books on King’s death were written for the very purpose of “dis-informing” the American public, at the behest of the FBI and CIA, and are filled with proven lies and distortions. As Nelson methodically exposes the original constructed false narrative as the massive deceit that it was, he presents a revised and corrected account in its place, based upon proven facts that exonerate James Earl Ray. Nelson’s account is supplemented by several authors, including Harold Weisberg, Mark Lane, Dick Gregory, John Avery Emison, Philip Melanson, and William F. Pepper. Nelson also posits numerous instances of how government investigators—the FBI originally, then the Department of Justice in 1976, the House Select Committee on Assassinations investigators in 1978 and the DOJ again in 2000—deliberately avoided pursuing any and all leads which pointed toward Ray’s innocence.

Book Synopsis Yesterday's Voices, Today's Straight Talk by : J. O. Rogers
Download or read book Yesterday's Voices, Today's Straight Talk written by J. O. Rogers and published by Dorrance Publishing. This book was released on 2021-12-07 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Yesterday’s Voices, Today’s Straight Talk By: J. O. Rogers In 1965, J. O. Rogers published Blues and Ballads of a Black Yankee—a Journey with Sad Sam in Verse, for which Whitney M. Young Jr., then Executive Director of the National Urban League, wrote the Foreword. That book of poetry chronicled, in verse, the voice and feelings of some of the people he encountered during his volunteer work as spokesperson for NECAP, the North End Community Action Project. NECAP was the first and most active student and citizens’ civil rights organization in Hartford and Central Connecticut during the 1960s. Yesterday’s Voices is the last of his unpublished poems from that era. The voices of the downtrodden, disenfranchised, and those denied opportunity can still be heard today in many places in the United States. And, as it was in the '60s, the protests are mostly peaceful and there remains a strong feeling of hope that the nation and the world have the will and desire for change. Today’s Straight Talk is composed of verses written in the past several years about historical, political, social, past and current problems, attitudes, conditions and feelings. They are easy to read and clearly stated. The only way we can strengthen our democracy and participate in establishing those human values and virtues that are endangered is to be honest in expressing our thoughts and actions and to communicate with each other using simply stated "straight talk".
