Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Kennedy's Colonial Travel: A Narrative of a Four Years Tour Through Australia, New Zealand, Canada, Etc These Reminiscences of David Kennedy, the Scottish singer, have been written to meet the wishes of many friends, public as well as private. Of public friends he had very many, for during the last ten years of his life he was so much at home with his audiences that to have heard him frequently was to know him as a friend. With this sketch of his Life a few of his letters have been given, and an attempt made (from memory and from a few shorthand notes by our brother David) to set down some of his platform remarks and stories of Scottish Life. Two of his longer "Humorous Stories" - the first entirely original, the second nearly so - are given as an appendix. The narrative of our Travels which follows is a revision and condensation of three books already published, entitled, "Kennedy's Colonial Travel," "Kennedy in India," and "Kennedy at the Cape," prepared for republication by our brother David shortly before his death. With the exception of a little necessary cutting, it appears here as he left it. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book John F Kennedy s Hidden Diary Europe 1937 written by Oliver Lubrich and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2023-11-01 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Presenting the 1937 diaries of John F. Kennedy’s tour of Europe, this volume offers insights into his early experiences on a continent under the shadow of Nazism. In 1937, while still a student, John F. Kennedy undertook a grand tour of Europe with his close friend and traveling companion, Lem Billings. On this journey he began to keep a diary, which is reproduced here in full and provides an unadulterated account of his thoughts and feelings. Superficially, it presents a picture of two young men enjoying their summer, sightseeing, going to the movies, bars and night clubs; but behind this we find, in Kennedy’s political observations and encounters, the looming shadow of Nazism. In retrospect there are blind spots and misjudgments, but also insights of great topicality, for example on populism, and propaganda and its potent effects. On this trip and during his later travels in Germany, Kennedy engaged with the crucial questions of his later presidency: How does a dictatorship work? How is an alternative concept of society to be countered? And how can an impending war be averted? Kennedy’s European and Russian policies and also his famous Berlin speech of 1963 (“Ich bin ein Berliner”) are to be understood against this background. In addition to numerous archive photographs, this volume contains Kennedy’s complete diary of his 1937 trip to Europe and, as a counterpart, the “Scrapbook” of Lem Billings who documented it from his perspective.

Download or read book Travel Space Architecture written by Jilly Traganou and published by Ashgate Publishing, Ltd.. This book was released on 2012-11-28 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Travel, Space, Architecture defines a new theoretical territory in architectural and urban scholarship that frames the processes of spatial production through the notion of travel. By aligning architectural thinking with current critical theory debates, this book explores whether dissociating culture from place and identity, and detaching the idea of architecture from both, can reframe our understanding of spatial and architectural practices. The book presents seventeen key case studies from a diverse range of perspectives including historical, theoretical, and praxis-based, and range from interrogations of architectural travel and notions of belonging and nationhood to challenging established geopolitical hierarchies.
Download or read book Country of Writing written by Lydia Wevers and published by Auckland University Press. This book was released on 2002 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This pioneering examination of travel writing about New Zealand in the colonial period discusses a wide range of writing that helped place New Zealand on the literary map, while providing an oblique history of the young nation in the 19th century. Exploring early newspaper accounts; the journals of missionaries, traders, and adventurers; and the guidebooks and specialized descriptions of fishing, and hunting, which promoted New Zealand as a sporting paradise, Wevers finds that writing about New Zealand was an essential tool in the colonization process.

Download or read book Race Tea and Colonial Resettlement written by Jane McCabe and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2017-05-04 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By the early 20th century, the ideology of racial distance predominated in British India. This simultaneously threw a spotlight on the 'Anglo-Indian problem' and sent intimate relationships between British colonials and Indian women into the shadows of history. One Scottish missionary's solution was to isolate and raise the mixed-race children of British tea planters in an institution in Kalimpong - in the foothills of the Himalayas - before permanently resettling them far from their maternal homeland as workers in New Zealand. Historian Jane McCabe leads us through a compelling research journey that began with uncovering the story of her own grandmother, Lorna Peters, one of 130 adolescents resettled in New Zealand under the scheme between 1908 and 1938. Using records from the 'Homes' in Kalimpong and in-depth interviews with other descendants in New Zealand, she crafts a compelling, evocative, and unsentimental yet moving narrative -- one that not only brings an untold part of imperial history to light, but also transforms previously broken and hushed family histories into an extraordinary collective story. This book attends to both the affective dimension of these traumatic familial disruptions, and to the larger economic and political drivers that saw government and missionary schemes breaking up Anglo-Indian families -- schemes that relied on future forgetting.
