Book Synopsis A CENTURY OF LOVE by : Burt Rashbaum
Download or read book A CENTURY OF LOVE written by Burt Rashbaum and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2000-11-17 with total page 454 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is love? How, and why, does it last? Through the decades of the twentieth century, advancements were made in almost every field of human endeavor, including medicine, science, and technology. However, despite continual progress, couples seem to know less than ever how to stay together. Times change, as does clothing; slang comes and goes; music mutates and annoys every generation’s parents; yet people still meet, fall in love and begin lives together, no matter what goes on around them. As a decade, a century, and a millennium simultaneously ended, news stories, books, documentaries, and prime-time features were produced on the advancements we have seen as a nation and as a planet. Yet despite new knowledge and vast changes in our culture, through wars that have been fought and every eventual peace that has ever been established, strangers still meet under the most unimaginable circumstances, and suddenly are strangers no longer. Despite answers that have been found to every imaginable mystery, writers, poets, artists, filmmakers, as well as ordinary men and women, still encounter the most basic human mystery in the simple question: What is love? This book is an attempt to find an answer. But it wasn’t my original intent. Is it possible that there might be a secret, some elusive grail, to making a relationship work? Are there common truths that span generations? How do people create a life together that lasts, that defies statistics, and keep from becoming boring, or simply somnambulant? People love telling the story of how they met. And everyone loves hearing these tales of early beginnings. That is where the original idea for this book came from. A collection of “how we met” stories. But as I began asking people to share, I realized that I was recording tales that also reflected the times in which they happened. I soon envisioned a collection that spanned the decades of the century, and that mirrored the cultural changes of the times. Starting with the twenties, included here are tales told with the background of immigrants flooding the streets, of economic depression, of war, of the birth of rock and roll, of the turbulence of the sixties, the confusion of the seventies, the increasing security of the eighties, and the technological nineties. Here are fun, silly, romantic, serious, exciting, and loving tales of people I have grown to know. In these pages you will read of couples who met in the excitement of the roaring twenties (New York, 1927), during the depth of the depression (Kansas, 1939), amidst the chaos and ruins of World War II (France, 1948), in the giddy post-war recovery (San Jose, 1954), the tumultuousness of the sixties (Boulder, 1968), the wildness of the seventies (Ann Arbor, 1974). You will read of couples who met in line waiting for a table at a restaurant (1940), on blind dates (1946, 1955, 1992), at a singles group (1975), a summer teen retreat (1977), on a massage table (1980), during a blizzard on a volcano (1982), on the Great Peace March (1986), on an Indian Reservation (1989), and those who met via the personal ads (1986) and cyberspace (1999). During my interviews, I asked all the couples two questions. First, was it love at first sight? Asking this question opened up the conversation and released an innocence, a playfulness, a deep connection, that was a joy to behold. These people have found a way to keep the early magic from fading, to keep a flame alive. I witnessed this flame time and again. As I listened to stories unfold, I became party to an excitement that was, in some cases, over 70 years old. I then asked couples to share any advice or tips they may have learned to staying together, and here is where the lessons of time became evident. I expected th

Book Synopsis Just Kids From the Bronx by : Arlene Alda
Download or read book Just Kids From the Bronx written by Arlene Alda and published by Macmillan + ORM. This book was released on 2015-03-03 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A down-to-earth, inspiring book about the American promise fulfilled." —President Bill Clinton "Fascinating . . . . Made me wish I had been born in the Bronx." —Barbara Walters A touching and provocative collection of memories that evoke the history of one of America's most influential boroughs—the Bronx—through some of its many success stories The vivid oral histories in Arlene Alda's Just Kids from the Bronx reveal what it was like to grow up in the place that bred the influencers in just about every field of endeavor today. The Bronx is where Michael Kay, the New York Yankees' play-by-play broadcaster, first experienced baseball, where J. Crew's CEO Millard (Mickey) Drexler found his ambition, where Neil deGrasse Tyson and Dava Sobel fell in love with science early on and where music-making inspired hip hop's Grandmaster Melle Mel to change the world of music forever. The parks, the pick-up games, the tough and tender mothers, the politics, the gangs, the food—for people who grew up in the Bronx, childhood recollections are fresh. Arlene Alda's own Bronx memories were a jumping-off point from which to reminisce with a nun, a police officer, an urban planner, and with Al Pacino, Mary Higgins Clark, Carl Reiner, Colin Powell, Maira Kalman, Bobby Bonilla, and many other leading artists, athletes, scientists and entrepreneurs—experiences spanning six decades of Bronx living. Alda then arranged these pieces of the past, from looking for violets along the banks of the Bronx River to the wake-up calls from teachers who recognized potential, into one great collective story, a film-like portrait of the Bronx from the early twentieth century until today.
Download or read book The Great Mistake written by Jonathan Lee and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2021-06-15 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An exultant novel of New York City at the turn of the twentieth century, about one man's rise to fame and fortune, and his mysterious murder—“engrossing” (Wall Street Journal), “immersive” (The New Yorker), and “seriously entertaining” (The Sunday Times, London). Andrew Haswell Green is dead, shot at the venerable age of eighty-three, when he thought life could hold no more surprises. The killing—on Park Avenue in broad daylight, on Friday the thirteenth—shook the city. Born to a struggling farmer, Green was a self-made man without whom there would be no Central Park, no Metropolitan Museum of Art, no Museum of Natural History, no New York Public Library. But Green had a secret, a life locked within him that now, in the hour of his death, may finally break free. A work of tremendous depth and piercing emotion, The Great Mistake is the story of a city transformed, a murder that made a private man infamous, and a portrait of a singular individual who found the world closed off to him—yet enlarged it.
