Book Synopsis Freedom Is, Freedom Ain't by : Scott Saul
Download or read book Freedom Is, Freedom Ain't written by Scott Saul and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2009-06-30 with total page 409 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the long decade between the mid-fifties and the late sixties, jazz was changing more than its sound. The age of Max Roach's Freedom Now Suite, John Coltrane's A Love Supreme, and Charles Mingus's The Black Saint and the Sinner Lady was a time when jazz became both newly militant and newly seductive, its example powerfully shaping the social dramas of the Civil Rights movement, the Black Power movement, and the counterculture. Freedom Is, Freedom Ain't is the first book to tell the broader story of this period in jazz--and American--history.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Zomorod (Cindy) Yousefzadeh is the new kid on the block...for the fourth time. California’s Newport Beach is her family’s latest perch, and she’s determined to shuck her brainy loner persona and start afresh with a new Brady Bunch name—Cindy. It’s the late 1970s, and fitting in becomes more difficult as Iran makes U.S. headlines with protests, revolution, and finally the taking of American hostages. Even puka shell necklaces, pool parties, and flying fish can't distract Cindy from the anti-Iran sentiments that creep way too close to home. A poignant yet lighthearted middle grade debut from the author of the bestselling Funny in Farsi.

Book Synopsis She Ain't Heavy, She's My Mother by : Bryan Batt
Download or read book She Ain't Heavy, She's My Mother written by Bryan Batt and published by National Geographic Books. This book was released on 2011-04-05 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gayle Batt is the kind of lady who throws elegant cocktail parties while wearing layers of silk chiffon, dripping pearls, and eight months’ pregnant. She is the kind of woman who says “anyhoo” and calls everyone “Dahlin’” or a special pet name. With hair, makeup, and nails always done to perfection, she triumphs rather than crumbles when infidelity, alcoholism, cancer, or any form of adversity attempts to shatter her family. Endearing and enduring, Gayle is a big-hearted, strong-willed true Southern belle—and she taught her son everything he knows about being a man. In She Ain’t Heavy, She’s My Mother, Bryan Batt, the actor who plays Sal Romano on the Emmy, Golden Globe, and Peabody Award–winning Mad Men, chronicles his life—and his mother’s supportive presence in it. From growing up gay below the Mason-Dixon Line to landing principal roles on Broadway (his first was on roller skates playing a singing and dancing boxcar in Starlight Express!) and later on the picture-perfect sets of TV’s Mad Men, to opening the ever-popular Hazelnut boutique in his hometown of New Orleans with his partner, Bryan weaves a touching and hilarious story of the South, showbiz, and an unshakable bond between mother and son.
Book Synopsis Fings Ain't Wot They Used T' Be: The Lionel Bart Story by : David Stafford
Download or read book Fings Ain't Wot They Used T' Be: The Lionel Bart Story written by David Stafford and published by Omnibus Press. This book was released on 2011-12-12 with total page 397 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lionel Bart was a writer and composer of British pop music and musicals, best known for creating the book, music and lyrics for Oliver! He also wrote the famous songs Living Doll (Cliff Richard) and From Russia With Love (Matt Munroe). He was unable to read music. He was a millionaire aged thirty in the Sixties, bankrupt in the Seventies and died in 1999. The authors gained exclusive access to Bart’s personal archives – his unfinished autobiography, his letters and scrapbooks. They detail how he signed away the rights to Oliver! to finance his new musical Twang – based on Robin Hood - which flopped badly in the theatre. Reveal how his heavy drinking led to diabetes and how he died in 1999 aged 69 from liver cancer. They have interviewed his personal secretaries, friends, family, counsellors and many of the performers, musicians and producers who worked with him. Interviewees include Rocky Horror’s Richard O’Brien and actors Dudley Sutton and Nigel Planer.
Book Synopsis Digital Reconstruction of a Dismembered Book of Hours Illuminated by Robert Boyvin by : Carla Rossi
Download or read book Digital Reconstruction of a Dismembered Book of Hours Illuminated by Robert Boyvin written by Carla Rossi and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2024-10-16 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume digitally reconstructs a 15th-century Book of Hours illuminated by Robert Boyvin, which was dismembered by a notorious American dealer. Utilising the WBRM methodology, it integrates digital humanities and philological research to restore the manuscript, addressing the ethical challenges associated with manuscript dismemberment. The study examines the manuscript’s historical context, its connection to Cardinal Georges d’Amboise, and Louis de La Londe. Through provenance and dating analysis, it provides a comprehensive understanding of this cultural treasure and advocates against biblioclasm. It underscores the ethical responsibility of preserving our heritage, critiques the complicity of some scholars in manuscript dismemberment, and highlights the omission of critical information in cataloguing platforms. Aimed at scholars, preservationists, and enthusiasts, this book revitalises a dismembered masterpiece and enriches the discourse on the ethical handling of historical artefacts.

Book Synopsis Trouble Ain't Nothin' But a Word by : Paul O. Scott
Download or read book Trouble Ain't Nothin' But a Word written by Paul O. Scott and published by Page Publishing Inc. This book was released on 2024-02-28 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: My memoir begins with a massive heart attack that leaves me in a vegetative state with no possibility of recovery, according to my doctors. What the doctors didn't know about me was I neither counted anyone in nor counted anyone out--especially me. I lived my life overcoming multitudinous challenges, living by the adage "All I need is a tiny chance, and I'll make it work." My story is delivered from a 5'4" frame, being constantly told "I can't" or "you won't." I was a make-believe Christian with the gift of gab and full of crime. This memoir shines a light on alcoholism, drug abuse, physical abuse, ever-present crime, and consistently circumventing all challenges.
Book Synopsis Ain't No Hurt Like a Church Hurt but God Can Heal the Wounds by : Evangelist Dr. Diane Hart
Download or read book Ain't No Hurt Like a Church Hurt but God Can Heal the Wounds written by Evangelist Dr. Diane Hart and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2010-12-27 with total page 69 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Have you ever been hurt in church? Have you ever found yourself weeping and wailing to the Lord, Why me? Have you ever cried yourself to sleep while trying to pray because of church hurts? Are church hurts real? Can they possibly come via true saints of God? Will they knock you to your knees? YES to all of the above. Over my 55 years in church, I have been through it all: the good, the bad, and the ugly. All of the accounts in this book are first-hand. I have been at peoples deathbeds as they reminisced about being hurt by leaders or so-called saints. I know people who have given their last believing their leader was giving a word from the Lord, yet they ended up losing in the end. Whereas some of the most influential people have professed to be one thing in public, behind the scenes they are another, and it has caused hurt among Gods people. I am sharing some of these hurts so that Gods people can know that, even though there is hurt in church, there is healing and you can move past it. It will come only through the word of God.
