Scotland Is Not for the Squeamish
Bill Watkins Manufacturer: Ruminator Books ProductGroup: Book Binding: Hardcover Similar Items: ASIN: 1886913420 |
Book Description
In his second work in a trilogy involving the Celtic identity, Watkins mingles poetry, history, and song with tall and true tales of his adventures in the Scottish Highlands. Whether shanghaied on a ship to the Arctic Circle, hunting for gold in the mountains, sinking a docked barge, shooting the breeze with ghosts at a pub, or bedazzling friends with druid magic, Watkins keeps readers on their toes as he dances us through his days and nights as a young man finding his way through the world. From the roaring seas to the verdant Scottish countryside, Watkins tackles his rugged environs with good humor and smarts on this ultimate journey of maturation and self-discovery.Customer Reviews:

Evocative, humorous, thought-provoking.......2001-09-23
As well as the humour, you'll love the evocative prose, which with a surprisingly few words summons up as vivid a picture as any I've ever read.
Especially clever is his rendition of the Scots tongue.
His stories of the start of the Celtic music revival, of living "on the broo" in Edinburgh and the start of the "Silly Wizard" folk group will make anyone smile.

The 2007-2012 World Outlook for Photo Chemical Metal Etching and Machining Excluding Metal Nameplates
Philip M. Parker Manufacturer: ICON Group International, Inc. ProductGroup: Book Binding: Paperback ASIN: 0497306352 Release Date: 2006-05-18 |
Product Description
This study covers the world outlook for photo chemical metal etching and machining excluding metal nameplates across more than 200 countries. For each year reported, estimates are given for the latent demand, or potential industry earnings (P.I.E.), for the country in question (in millions of U.S. dollars), the percent share the country is of the region and of the globe. These comparative benchmarks allow the reader to quickly gauge a country vis-à-vis others. Using econometric models which project fundamental economic dynamics within each country and across countries, latent demand estimates are created. This report does not discuss the specific players in the market serving the latent demand, nor specific details at the product level. The study also does not consider short-term cyclicalities that might affect realized sales. The study, therefore, is strategic in nature, taking an aggregate and long-run view, irrespective of the players or products involved.

Bamboula!: The Life and Times of Louis Moreau Gottschalk
S. Frederick Starr Manufacturer: Oxford University Press, USA ProductGroup: Book Binding: Hardcover Similar Items:
ASIN: 0195072375 |
Book Description
Louis Moreau Gottschalk was an American original. A spellbinding piano virtuoso, he was America's first internationally recognized composer, whose "classical" works received accolades from Hector Berlioz and Victor Hugo, and whose arch-romantic melodies became for Americans the standard expressions of common emotions. Perhaps most important, his immensely popular Louisiana and Caribbean pieces--such as Danza, Pasquinade, or Bamboula--anticipated ragtime by fifty years. Indeed, the colorful and exotic textures of Gottschalk's music establish him at the head of what is today the mainstream of popular American culture. In Bamboula!, S. Frederick Starr presents an authoritatively researched, engagingly written biography of America's first authentic musical voice. Starr paints for us a striking portrait of Gottschalk's childhood in 1830s New Orleans, a city madly devoted to music, where opera companies, music halls, fiddlers and banjo-pickers, church choirs, and Army bands all contributed to what Starr calls "the most stunning manifestation of Jacksonian democracy in the realm of culture to be found anywhere in America." We meet Gottschalk's African-American nurse Sally, who regaled him with the creole songs, legends, and lore of her native Haiti, which would inform some of his finest music. We travel with Gottschalk to Paris, where he was a sensation, playing in fashionable salons for the likes of Lamartine, Gautier, and Dumas; and we join his flight from the Revolution of 1848 to a town north of Paris, where he composed his first great works--Bamboula, La Savane, Le Bananier, and Le Mancenillier--all published over the name "Gottschalk of Louisiana." Starr describes Gottschalk's successful return to New York City in the early 1850s, where he enjoyed a degree of popularity never before accorded to an American performer or composer, becoming our first homegrown concert idol. But Starr also examines the life-long struggle between the Catholic Gottschalk and earnest Protestant champions of "serious" music, a battle that pitted the austere values of northern Europe against the brighter sensibilities of Paris, Louisiana, and the West Indies. Based on extensive research, including hundreds of letters written by Gottschalk (in French, Spanish, and English) which are used here for the first time, Bamboula! illuminates an exotic but tragic life, as well as one of the most democratic phases of American cultural life, a world of bustling impresarios and America's first bohemian circle. A major biography in every sense, it will help reestablish Gottschalk's place in American musical history.Customer Reviews:
Fine work, couple of negatives.......2003-11-29
Bamboozelled!.......2000-02-16
1. The constant stretch to EXPLAIN everything (his father's family's roots came via Germany and England - THEREFORE, LMG never played there).
2. A great deal of FACT is "debunked" in this effort. For instance, one instance, he says Congo Square never held slave dances during Gottschalk's time. Well, Benjamin Latrobe visited in 1819 and specifically sought out this attraction (for it was an attraction even then), he even goes to great length to describe the instruments, the drumming, dancing, singing and "savagry" (see "Louisiana Sojourns" and "Congo Square in New Orleans").
Let us not lose history in an effort to explain. Use all the facts, not just those which serve your purpose.
Unfortunately - I now do not believe every conclusion and "fact" in the entire 450+ page tome!
This is very unfortunate. I loved Starr's "Southern Comfort" and use it often. My advice is unless you have years to sort out all the half-truths here, you should skip Bamboula!
Facinating examination of a most underrated composer.......2000-01-14
