What was it like to be Elvis Presley? What did it feel like when impossible fame made him its prisoner? As the world s first rock star there was no one to tell him what to expect, no one with whom he could share the burden of being himself - of being Elvis.On the outside he was all charm, sex appeal, outrageously confident on stage and stunningly gifted in the recording studio. To his fans he seemed to have it all. He was Elvis. With his voice and style influencing succeeding generations of musicians, he should have been free to sing any song he liked, to star in any film he was offered, and to tour in any country he chose. But he wasn t free. The circumstances of his poor beginnings in the American South, which, as he blended gospel music with black rhythm and blues and white country songs, helped him create rock and roll, had left him with a lifelong vulnerability. Made rich and famous beyond his wildest imaginings when he mortgaged his talent to the machinations of his manager, Colonel Tom Parker, there would be an inevitable price to pay. Though he daydreamed of becoming a serious film actor, instead he grew to despise his own movies and many of the songs he had to sing in them. He could have rebelled. But he didn t. Why? In the Seventies, as the hits rolled in again, and millions of fans saw him in a second career as he sang his way across America, he talked of wanting to tour the world. But he never did. What was stopping him?BEING ELVIS takes a clear-eyed look at the most-loved entertainer ever, and finds an unusual boy with a dazzling talent who grew up to change popular culture; a man who sold a billion records and had more hits than any other singer, but who became trapped by his own frailties in the loneliness of fame.

From the time she was seventeen years old, that life was all Priscilla had known. During her ten years with Elvis, it became painfully apparent that she had no idea who she was outside Elvis s world.

She transformed Graceland into an international destination and helped guide the development of Elvis Presley Enterprises. But the unexpected, shattering loss of three immediate family members years later brought Priscilla to her knees.

Billy Connoly - milovník hudby, motorkář, metla všeho nudného a všedního, snil o cestě po legendární Route 66 od chvíle, kdy poprvé uslyšel Chucka Berryho zpívat tu nejskvělejší rock n rollovou nahrávku všech dob. A nyní dostal svojí šanci - vydává se na své na míru postavené tříkolce hledat skutečnou Ameriku, která ještě stále může být nalezena mimo dálnice tohoto národa. Na cestě po všech z jejích 3 666 kilometrů (2 278 mil) od mrakodrapů Chicaga po Molo v Santa Monice v Kalifornii, Billyho cesta ho vede kolem mnoha základních ikon Spojených států: Gateway Arch v St Louis, Monument Valley a Grand Canyon, a pár pozůstalých jedinečných, neonem osvícených čerpacích stanic a jídelen, které kdysi tuto cestu lemovaly. Ale také mu tato cesta dává příležitost poznat lidi, kteří tuto silnici považují za svůj domov, od Mervina, amišského truhláře, k Robovi, který je tak jako Billy nadšeným příznivcem bendža, a obsesivním sběratelem hudebních nástrojů, k Angelovi, který je jedním z mnoha lidí, kteří jsou odhodlaní udržet ducha Matky Cest naživu. Vtipné, dojímavé a inspirující zároveň, příběhy, které na své cestě sbírá, vyprávějí příběh moderní Ameriky. A možná inspirují pár lidí, aby taky usedli na své motorky. Se svým instinktem pro dobrý příběh, který nemá konkurenci, a s nakažlivým entuziasmem, který ho udělal naším nejpodmanivějším národním pokladem, Billy Connolly je vrcholným průvodcem na vrcholném silničním výletě.

How a system of colonial trusteeship converted Native wealth into settler capitalFrom the earliest days of its founding, the United States set its sights on Native territory. Amid better-known ⠜Indian wars,⠝ the federal government quietly built an empire by treaty, offering payments to Native peoples for their land. Routinely inadequate, these payments were nonetheless pivotal because federal officials chose not to deliver them as a lump sum. Instead, the government kept the bulk of payments owed to Native nations under its own control as a trustee, and made access to future installments contingent on Native compliance. In Vested Interests, Emilie Connolly describes how a system of ⠜fiduciary colonialism⠝ seized a continent from its original inhabitants⠔and, ironically, furnished Native peoples with financial resources that sustained their nations. Connolly documents two centuries of dispossession in the guise of fiduciary benevolence. Acting as both dispossessor and trustee, the federal government invested Native wealth in state bonds that financed banks, canals, and other infrastructural projects that enabled the country to expand further westward. Meanwhile, Native peoples protected the money they did receive for future generations, investing it in their own institutions and mounting legal challenges to hold their trustees accountable. Still, federal trusteeship placed tight constraints on Native economies with the aim of containing Native power, forcing nations to endure through sheer resilience and ingenuity.

Fantastic Nick Hornby Beautifully written Sunday Times Truly remarkable Rolling StoneUnfaithful Music and Disappearing Ink is the long-awaited memoir from Elvis Costello, one of rock and roll s most iconic stars.Born Declan Patrick MacManus, Elvis Costello was raised in London and Liverpool, grandson of a trumpet player on the White Star Line and son of a jazz musician who became a successful radio dance band vocalist. Costello went into the family business and had taken the popular music world by storm before he was twenty-four.Costello continues to add to one of the most intriguing and extensive songbooks of the day. His performances have taken him from a cardboard guitar in his front room to fronting a rock and roll band on your television screen and performing in the world s greatest concert halls in a wild variety of company. Unfaithful Music describes how Costello s career has somehow endured for almost four decades through a combination of dumb luck and animal cunning, even managing the occasional absurd episode of pop stardom.This memoir, written with the same inimitable touch as his lyrics, and including dozens of images from his personal archive, offers his unique view of his unlikely and sometimes comical rise to international success, with diversions through the previously undocumented emotional foundations of some of his best known songs and the hits of tomorrow. The book contains many stories and observations about his renowned co-writers and co-conspirators, though Costello also pauses along the way for considerations on the less appealing side of infamy.Unfaithful Music Disappearing Ink is destined to be a classic, idiosyncratic memoir of a singular man.

In my fantasy of the Rambling Man who is something of a hobo, walking - or maybe jumping into the car of a moving train - is what he does. He slings his guitar or banjo over his shoulder and strides out along the road to the next town. There he plays a few songs at a local gig and meets a beautiful woman who feeds and shags him. It s a wonderful life, and a million miles better than sitting on your couch watching reality TV.During his lifetime of global adventures, Sir Billy Connolly s genuine curiosity and natural ability to connect with the people he meets on the road has made him a true citizen of the world . A good trip, in my book, should be littered with little detours. Travelling from A to B is all very well, but you risk missing out on so much . . . In RAMBLING MAN, Billy takes us with him on his incredible journeys criss-crossing the world. But this is no conventional travel memoir. From Ireland to India, Australia to the Arctic, we join the Big Yin on an international voyage full of detours, digressions and the most eccentric of characters - all underscored by the chosen soundtrack of the ultimate ramblin man himself.

From coastal to alpine, tropical to temperate, coniferous to deciduous, forest trees not only support the wildlife that lives under their canopies, but humankind, too. We could not survive without the cooling effect that trees have on the planet. Yet for thousands of years, we have logged forest trees and tapped their resin, we have hunted and foraged among them, found sources of medicine in their leaves and bark, and created sacred groves under their canopies. In some places we have cleared so much land that it is possible the trees will never grow back. Habitats have been lost as global temperatures have continued to rise. But, despite the environmental damage, there is hope, too. Some areas of abandoned farmland have been reclaimed by trees. And if we look to the Mayan ruins in Mexico, we see how forests can bury even a societyâ ™s grandest buildings. Given the opportunity, forests wonâ ™t just outlive us, but our civilisations, too. In this book, Kieron Connolly surveys forests from all around the globe, from deforestation in the Amazon to the reforestation of Californian redwoods, from Englandâ ™s New Forest to Germanyâ ™s Black Forest, telling the stories of humankindâ ™s ancient links to the trees and the flora and fauna found among them. Ranging from ecology to history, from the ravaged to the rewilded, and featuring more than 230 striking photographs, Forests is a fascinating exploration of woodland life around the world.

In recent British fiction I can think only of Tessa Hadley who rivals Connolly in exacting such intricate, compelling drama from close-knit families... I don t often wish a book were longer, but this one I did ObserverOn the battlefields of the Crimea, William Gale cradles the still-warm body of his brother. William s experience of war will bring about a change in him that will reverberate through his family over the next two centuries.In the 1970s, William s descendants invite Stephen, a distant relation, to stay in their house in the English countryside - but their golden summer entanglements will end in a shocking fall from grace.Half a century later, a confrontation between the surviving members of the family will culminate in a terrible reckoning. The characters in Bad Relations are so brilliantly real, so wonderfully compelling at their best, and at their worst, that I can t get them out of my head.

Coming from Glasgow, it s weird, I don t really tell jokes, like Irish jokes and all that. I tell wee stories. And some of them don t even have punchlines. But you ll get used to it as the night goes on, and on, and on, and on and on... In December 2018, after 50-years of belly-laughs, energy, outrage and enjoyment, Billy Connolly announced his retirement from stand-up comedy. His has been an extraordinary career.When he first started out in the late Sixties, Billy played the banjo in the folk clubs of Glasgow. Between songs, he would improvise a bit, telling anecdotes from the Clyde shipyard where he worked. Soon, the songs became shorter and the monologues longer, and Billy quickly became recognized as one of the most exciting comedians of his generation.Billy s routines always felt spontaneous. He improvised, embellished and digressed as he went along. He brought a beautiful sense of the absurd to his shows as he riffed on holidays, alcohol, the crucifixion, or naked bungee jumping. But Billy s comedy could be laced with anger too. He hated pretentiousness and called out hypocrisy where ever he saw it. Billy had the popular touch. His comedy spanned generations and different social tribes in a way that few others have ever managed.Tall Tales and Wee Stories brings together the very best of Billy s storytelling for the first time and features his most famous routines including, The Last Supper, Jojoba Shampoo, Incontinence Pants and Shouting at Wildebeest. With an introduction and original illustrations by Billy, it is an inspirational, energetic and riotously funny read, and a fitting celebration of one of the finest comedians.
