The photographs in Nicholas Pollack’s new book Meadow were made between 2015-2020 in and around Secaucus, New Jersey, U.S. Inspired by the landscape of the New Jersey Meadowlands, Meadow is a body of work about a small plot of land and the friendships and interactions between a group of truck drivers who forge a transcendent relationship with the place. Nicholas Pollack’s Meadow is tied to place – specifically, a place that is neglected by society. Meadow tells the story of a group of truck drivers who made a piece of overlooked salt marsh their own. Operating in the tradition of documentary style photography, Pollack shows both the social and the physical landscapes of America in Meadow. This book is Nicholas Pollack’s ode to a small portion of the sprawling New Jersey Meadowlands, to its people and its landscape, and to the humanity enveloped in a post-industrial landscape.

Audiokniha: Jednoho dne dostane osamělý voják kdesi v Iráku dopis, začínající oslovením Milý Johne… John Tyree je vojákem americké armády, k níž se nechal naverbovat po střední škole jen proto, aby nějak naložil se svým bezcílným životem. Po letech strávených ve válce na Balkáně se vrací domů na pár dní… – aby se nečekaně a neodvolatelně zamiloval do dívky svých snů. Půvabná a laskavá Savannah jeho city opětuje a na jediný letní týden se celý svět stane hřištěm pro jejich lásku. Savannah se s Johnem rozloučí s jednoznačným příslibem: Jestliže se vrátíš, provdám se za tebe. Ani jeden si nepřipouští, že vzdálenost mezi nimi může narušit upřímné, ale křehké pouto... Potom přijde 11. září roku 2001–a svět se navždy změní. John musí volit mezi slibem Savannah a přísahou, kterou složil pro svou vlast. Vrátí se do armády a Savannah mu slíbí, že na něj počká – jenže zároveň zjišťuje, že odloučení je pro lásku krutou zkouškou. Na motivy knihy byl natočen úspěšný film oscarového režiséra Lasse Hallströma s Amandou Seyfried a Channingem Tatumem v hlavních rolích. Kolem projelo auto a zlomilo kouzlo okamžiku.

Justice in the Balance Alexander Hamilton famously predicted that the judiciary would be "the least dangerous" branch of government. How''s that working out?The Supreme Court stands as arbiter over a country increasingly unable to govern itself. Americans can''t agree on the meaning of the Constitution or even the rule of law. Are the nine high priests enthroned in their marble temple the saviors of the Republic or the pallbearers of democracy? Are they defenders of the Constitution as written or super-legislators who make law from the bench? What did the Founders envision when they vested the "judicial Power" in "one supreme Court"?John Yoo, a professor of law at UC Berkeley, and Robert J. Delahunty, a fellow at the Claremont Institute Center for the American Way of Life, provide the answers with an incisive reading of the law and constitutional history. The Politically Incorrect Guide to the Supreme Court explains:The turbulent history of the court''s early years, and the eventual triumph of "judicial supremacy"The Bill of Rights: how the Court has defined free speech, freedom of religion, and the right to bear armsThe Court''s notorious rulings and how they were overturned—from Dred Scottto Roe v.

John Jeremiah Sullivan takes us on a funhouse hall-of-mirrors ride through the other side of America - to the Ozarks for a Christian rock festival; to Florida to meet the straggling refugees of MTV''s Real World; to Indiana to investigate the formative years of Michael Jackson and Axl Rose and then to the Gulf Coast in the wake of Katrina - and back again as its residents confront the BP oil spill. Simultaneously channeling the gonzo energy of Hunter S. Thompson and the wit and insight of Joan Didion, Sullivan - with a laidback, erudite Southern charm that''s all his own - shows us how America really (no, really) lives now.

King John ruled England for seventeen and a half years, yet his entire reign is usually reduced to one image: of the villainous monarch outmanoeuvred by rebellious barons into agreeing to Magna Carta at Runnymede in 1215. Ever since, John has come to be seen as an archetypal tyrant. But how evil was he? In this perceptive short account, Nicholas Vincent unpicks John''s life through his deeds and his personality. The youngest of four brothers, overlooked and given a distinctly unroyal name, John seemed doomed to failure. As king, he was reputedly cruel and treacherous, pursuing his own interests at the expense of his country, losing the continental empire bequeathed to him by his father Henry and his brother Richard and eventually plunging England into civil war. Only his lordship of Ireland showed some success. Yet, as this fascinating biography asks, were his crimes necessarily greater than those of his ancestors - or was he judged more harshly because, ultimately, he failed as a warlord?

Byly to tři manažeři středního významu a nikdo si nepředstavoval, že se někdo z nich dostane až na vrchol.Ronald Reagan byl na prezidenta už moc starý - a vždy příliš konzervativní. Margaret Thatcherová nebyla jen příliš konzervativní - byla to žena a nebyla na žádném seznamu budoucích vůdců konzervativní strany. A pomyšlení na polského papeže bylo skutečně absurdní, zvlášť když kardinál, o kterého šlo, byl zatvrzelý antikomunista a obránce katolické ortodoxie v době, kdy byli v církvi i po celém světě mnozí přesvědčeni, že budoucnost patří na sovětské straně a na západě sociálnímu liberalismu.Všichni tři nejen vystoupili až na vrchol, ale všichni také přežili vražedné atentáty, pomohli k zázračnému mírnému osvobození východní Evropy od sovětského komunismu a znovu oživili své země i Západ. O tomto všem píše zkučený novinář a pisatel projevů Margaret Thatcherové John O´Sullivan v předkládané knize.

Robert Bly writes that it is clear to men that the images of adult manhood given by popular culture are worn out, that a man can no longer depend on them. Iron John searches for a new vision of what a man is or could be, drawing on psychology, anthropology, mythology, folklore and legend. Robert Bly looks at the importance of the Wild Man (reminiscent of the Wild Woman in Women Who Run With the Wolves), who he compares to a Zen priest, a shaman or a woodman.

This book begins with an account of the disease that killed Keats and contributed to the enduring myth that he was a doomed genius. Newspaper reports of Keats''s death and early ''tribute'' poems marking his demise form the substance of successive chapters, as do early attempts at researching and writing a biography of him. Keats''s would-be biographers included his publisher John Taylor whose biographical endeavours preceded Keats''s death, his mentor Leigh Hunt who devoted a chapter to ''Mr. Keats'' in his brilliant 1828 book Lord Byron and some of his Contemporaries, and his friend and collaborator Charles Brown whose draft life narrative remains a vital source of information. Poised to emigrate to New Zealand, Brown passed his script and source materials to Richard Monckton Milnes enjoining him to complete the work (Brown conceded that Milnes had an advantage in having not known Keats). This book explores Milnes''s efforts and success in publishing his Life, Letters, and Literary Remains of John Keats in 1848 --the first full-scale biography of the poet. Milnes''s book has proved a formative and enduring influence for all of Keats''s biographers, and the scale and resourcefulness of Milnes''s labours are explored in detail.

Since World War II, Arab armed forces have consistently punched below their weight--they have lost many wars that by all rights they should have won, and in their best performances only ever achieved quite modest accomplishments. Over time, soldiers, scholars, and military experts have offered various explanations for this pattern. Reliance on Soviet military methods, the poor civil-military relations of the Arab world, the underdevelopment of the Arab states, and patterns of behavior derived from the wider Arab culture, have all been suggested as the ultimate source of Arab military difficulties. Armies of Sand, powerful and riveting history of Arab armies from the end of World War Two to the present, assesses these differing explanations and isolates the most important causes. Over the course of the book, he examines the combat performance of fifteen Arab armies and air forces in virtually every Middle Eastern war, from the Jordanians and Syrians in 1948 to Hizballah in 2006 and the Iraqis and ISIS in 2014-2017. He then compares these experiences to the performance of the Argentine, Chadian, Chinese, Cuban, North Korean, and South Vietnamese armed forces in their own combat operations during the twentieth century. The book ultimately concludes that reliance on ... Unknown localization key: "more"

“This stirring memoir proves what readers of Nicholas’s debut novel, Freshwater Road, already know: that Nicholas, a pioneer Black actress, is also a writer of deep talent and understated eloquence. This is not your typical Hollywood tell-all, full of ‘I did this, and I did that,’ complete with cheap shots and horrible reveals about the rich and famous with whom she worked. Rather, it’s a long thoughtful moment, in which an artist peers into the looking glass and reflects on her life in a manner that allows us to see every corner of every room she’s ever been in—and every corner of every room we’ve ever been in. Because her story is ours. Nicholas is a distinct American voice. Her inspiring story, written with deep humility and refreshing honesty, is further proof that women will one day save this country. And I’m a witness.” —James McBride, National Book Award winnerA poignant, revelatory memoir from acclaimed novelist and actor Denise Nicholas that offers an episodic exploration of her multifaceted life, delving intimately into themes of artistic self-invention, race, and grief. Long before writing her acclaimed novel Freshwater Road, or her career as a path-breaking TV and film star, Denise Nicholas was ...

“The essential purpose of Saving the Big Sky is to inspire the reader to help conserve even more of Montana,” write Bruce Bugbee, Robert Kiesling, and John Wright in this compelling study of how six million acres of biodiverse land were conserved in Montana over the past fifty years. Indigenous and non-Indigenous knowledge about land stewardship has evolved and since the 1970s tribes, nonprofit organizations, land trusts, and government agencies have conserved land in many creative ways. Beautifully illustrated with more than ninety color photographs and thirty detailed maps, Saving the Big Sky showcases land conservation achievements across eight regions of the state: the Rocky Mountain Front, the Blackfoot Valley, the Greater Yellowstone, the Missoula Region, the Helena Region, Northwest Montana, the Flathead Indian Reservation, and the American Prairie. Land protection is shown to work best when large, intact, connected landscapes can be conserved, rather than small, fragmented, isolated parcels. Conservationists have found that landowners in Montana more widely accept conservation easements and other voluntary, financially compensating tools that respect private property rights. The brilliant images and striking before-and-after maps featured here celebrate the ranches, farms, wildlife habitats, and scenic open spaces that are forever safeguarded. In documenting conservation accomplishments ... Unknown localization key: "more"

In 1980, while Nelson Mandela languished in jail, an enthusiastic and hopelessly naïve British teenager arrived at a local school in Mandela’s home state of Transkei. Wide-eyed and faced with an unfamiliar world, Treive Nicholas was about to embark on an adventure he would never forget.Looking back on this year forty years later, A Nun and the Pig offers a remarkable insight into this politically charged but little-known part of Africa and a lived experience ranging from the surreal to the heart-warming; the wonderful to the tragic. One minute Nicholas could be entertaining local Thembu chiefs or coaching the Transkei paraplegic sports team for a rare non-racial sporting competition, the next he could be witnessing the terrible death of an infant in a neglected Umtata township.Scrapes with law enforcement agencies increased in frequency and risk as Nicholas railed against the injustices of the apartheid system, and at one point found himself smuggling Communist black liberation literature across South Africa’s borders. Armed only with a camera and bag of dried apricots, his hitchhiking adventures took him thousands of kilometres north to Zambian bush, where events took a dangerous turn near one of Robert Mugabe’s camps.Fear, shock, joy and self-discovery were a ...
