Book Bansemer s Book of the Southern Shores

Download or read book Bansemer s Book of the Southern Shores written by Roger Bansemer and published by Pineapple PressInc. This book was released on 2003 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Roger Bansemer shows us the Southern shores of the United States as only an artist can. His brush finds beauty in the simplicity of a sandbur, in the intricacy of ship skeletons, in the tangled webs of shrimp nets, and in the weathered faces of ship captains. Bansemer's Book of the Southern Shores is an artist's journal, describing in words and images the colorful places nestled up and down these coasts as he strolls through the towns, guides his boat along the white beaches, and chats with the locals. The artist's goal is to capture the natural beauty of the shores and share it before it disappears. Travel along to discover the wildlife and the people who call these shores home. Join Roger as he explores the diversity of the South's coastline-from the sponge divers of Tarpon Springs, the basket weavers of the Virgin Islands, the alligator wrestlers of the Everglades, to the marshlands of coastal Georgia, the lighthouses of Florida, and the song of the cicada throughout the South.

Download or read book Journey to Titanic written by Roger Bansemer and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2015-10-17 with total page 129 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Artist Roger Bansemer gets an unexpected invitation to dive two and a half miles down into the Atlantic to the site of one of the most famous shipwrecks in history. Armed with his artist's eye and insight, he embarks on an expedition on a Russian research ship to the Titanic In this compelling journal, Bansemers writing and stunning visual work bring us into the adventure, relaying the colorful characters on the expedition, the history and past grandeur of the Titanic and the aching beauty of the ships underwater remains. Titanic as everyone knows, sank when it hit an iceberg on its maiden voyage in 1912. It was not seen again until the mid-80s when technological advances led to the development of sub-mersibles capable of diving to that depth. Bansemer became the 112th person to dive to the Titanic the sixth person under the stern, and the first artist to have painted Titanic on site. This book chronicles his journey in a mixture of paintings, photos, and digitally-painted images. Bansemer's fascination with painting people, especially the salty, nautical types, finds full expression. Meet buddy Lowell and diving partner Ralph; various Russian crewmen including Bird Man Pierre, Pirate Skippy, the cooks, the "cowboy" who "rides" the submersible; Keldysh Captain Gorbach; and many others. Bansemer captures them all in their most characteristic poses. The star is always the Titanic majestic even at the bottom of the sea. Bansemer pays tribute to the many people who went down with her, acknowledging her role as their memorial resting place. This book, Roger Bansemer's written and painted journal of his journey to Titanic, is also offered in their memory.

Book Searching for the Dixie Barbecue

Download or read book Searching for the Dixie Barbecue written by Wilber W. Caldwell and published by Pineapple Press Inc. This book was released on 2005 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Searching for the Dixie Barbecue, with its thought-provoking text and many black and white photos, is a culinary and cultural saga. Here are glimpses of a fragment of society still tenaciously clinging to deep-rooted, primal instincts; to legends of the American frontier; and to the hand-me-down, rural traditions of the Deep South. This is a story about (among other things) regional pride, homespun cookery, backwoods lore, self-effacing redneck humor, shameless braggadocio, macho self-imagery, carnivorous bravado, porcine fundamentalism, boldfaced lies, and both culinary and social intransigence. This book will supply you with the elusive answers to three questions: What is real barbecue? How do you find it? and What does it mean to be Southern?
