Download or read book Jas a Munro & Co written by Ian Berg and published by . This book was released on 2021-02-15 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the story of James (Jas) A Munro, a Scottish immigrant. In 1891, he arrived in Melbourne with a shilling in his pocket. Munro established a series of successful enterprises, including a bedding and a spring manufacturing business. In the early part of the twentieth century, he was smitten by the emergence of the horseless carriage and became one of the largest motor agents in the country. He established a very successful garage and coachbuilding operation. To do so he acquired and developed large premises next to the iconic Queen Victoria Market. This became known as the 'Munro site'. And then the war came. Munro changed and so did his business. He established another enterprise, this time in Sydney. He even went on to own a radio station. Munro was complex, and his curiosity took him in different directions. He had many interests and many connections. There is, however, one constant in his story. It is the Munro site, a site now integrally linked into the development of the market.The Munro archives survived, and they are extraordinary. Jas A Munro & Co: The Largest Garage in Melbourne arose out of a chance discovery of this archival treasure trove. The records, privately held, were undisturbed and unseen for nearly a century. Access to them has finally enabled this wonderful story to be told. The Munro story is one of commerce in early Melbourne, the evolution of the motor industry in Australia, and the changes forced upon it by a globally disruptive event. The book is lavishly illustrated, and the majority of photographs have never before been published. It is testament to the life and enterprise of an extraordinary businessman in Australia at the start of twentieth century.

Book Synopsis A Pleasure to Burn by : Ray Bradbury
Download or read book A Pleasure to Burn written by Ray Bradbury and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2011-08-02 with total page 402 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ray Bradbury’s novel Fahrenheit 451 is an enduring masterwork of twentieth-century American literature—a chilling vision of a dystopian future built on the foundations of ignorance, censorship, and brutal repression. The origins and evolution of Bradbury’s darkly magnificent tale are explored in A Pleasure to Burn, a collection of sixteen selected shorter works that prefigure the grand master’s landmark novel. Classic, thematically interrelated stories alongside many crucial lesser-known ones—including, at the collection’s heart, the novellas “Long After Midnight” and “The Fireman”—A Pleasure to Burn is an indispensable companion to the most powerful work of America’s preeminent storyteller, a wondrous confirmation of the inimitable Bradbury’s brilliance, magic . . . and fire.

Book Synopsis Tales of Ordinary Madness by : Charles Bukowski
Download or read book Tales of Ordinary Madness written by Charles Bukowski and published by City Lights Books. This book was released on 2013-06-15 with total page 327 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Exceptional stories that come pounding out of Bukowski's violent and depraved life. Horrible and holy, you cannot read them and ever come away the same again. This collection of stories was once part of the 1972 City Lights classic, Erections, Ejaculations, Exhibitions and General Tales of Ordinary Madness. That book was later split into two volumes and republished: The Most Beautiful Woman in Town and, this book, Tales of Ordinary Madness. With Bukowski, the votes are still coming in. There seems to be no middle ground—people seem either to love him or hate him. Tales of his own life and doings are as wild and weird as the very stories he writes. In a sense, Bukowski was a legend in his time, a madman, a recluse, a lover; tender, vicious; never the same. "Bukowski … a professional disturber of the peace … laureate of Los Angeles netherworld [writes with] crazy romantic insistence that losers are less phony than winners, and with an angry compassion for the lost."—Jack Kroll, Newsweek "Bukowski’s works are extraordinarily vivid and often bitterly funny observations of people living on the very edge of oblivion. His poetry, in all its glorious simplicity, was accessible the way poetry seldom is a testament to his genius."—Nick Burton, PIF Magazine
Book Synopsis People-Centred Methodologies for Heritage Conservation by : Rebecca Madgin
Download or read book People-Centred Methodologies for Heritage Conservation written by Rebecca Madgin and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-05-17 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents methodological approaches that can help explore the ways in which people develop emotional attachments to historic urban places. With a focus on the powerful relations that form between people and places, this book uses people-centred methodologies to examine the ways in which emotional attachments can be accessed, researched, interpreted and documented as part of heritage scholarship and management. It demonstrates how a range of different research methods drawn primarily from disciplines across the arts, humanities and social sciences can be used to better understand the cultural values of heritage places. In so doing, the chapters bring together a series of diverse case studies from both established and early-career scholars in Australia, China, Europe, North America and Central America. These case studies outline methods that have been successfully employed to consider attachments between people and historic places in different contexts. This book advocates a need to shift to a more nuanced understanding of people’s relations to historic places by situating emotional attachments at the core of urban heritage thinking and practice. It offers a practical guide for both academics and industry professionals towards people-centred methodologies for urban heritage conservation.
