Download or read book Reckless written by Chrissie Hynde and published by Anchor. This book was released on 2015-09-08 with total page 382 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chrissie Hynde, for nearly four decades the singer/songwriter/ undisputed leader of the Pretenders, is a justly legendary figure. Few other rock stars have managed to combine her swagger, sexiness, stage presence, knack for putting words to music, gorgeous voice and just all-around kick-assedness into such a potent and alluring package. From “Tatooed Love Boys” and “Brass in Pocket” to “Talk of the Town” and “Back on the Chain Gang,” her signature songs project a unique mixture of toughness and vulnerability that millions of men and women have related to. A kind of one- woman secret tunnel linking punk and new wave to classic guitar rock, she is one of the great luminaries in rock history. Now, in her no-holds-barred memoir Reckless, Chrissie Hynde tells, with all the fearless candor, sharp humor and depth of feeling we’ve come to expect, exactly where she came from and what her crooked, winding path to stardom entailed. Her All-American upbringing in Akron, Ohio, a child of postwar power and prosperity. Her soul capture, along with tens of millions of her generation, by the gods of sixties rock who came through Cleveland—Mitch Ryder, David Bowie, Jeff Back, Paul Butterfield and Iggy Pop among them. Her shocked witness in 1970 to the horrific shooting of student antiwar protestors at Kent State. Her weakness for the sorts of men she calls “the heavy bikers” and “the get-down boys.” Her flight from Ohio to London in 1973 essentially to escape the former and pursue the latter. Her scuffling years as a brash reviewer for New Musical Express, shop girl at the Malcolm McLaren and Vivienne Westwood boutique 'Craft Must Wear Clothes But The Truth Loves To Go Naked', first-hand witness to the birth of the punk movement, and serial band aspirant. And then ,at almost the last possible moment, her meeting of the three musicians who comprised the original line-up of The Pretenders, their work on the indelible first album “The Pretenders,” and the rocket ride to “Instant” stardom, with all the disorientation and hazards that involved. The it all comes crashing back down to earth with the deaths of lead guitarist James Honeyman Scott and bassist Peter Farndon, leaving her bruised and saddened, but far from beaten. Because Chrissie Hynde is, among other things, one of rock’s great survivors. We are lucky to be living in a golden age of great rock memoirs. In the aptly titled Reckless, Chrissie Hynde has given us one of the very best we have. Her mesmerizing presence radiates from every line and page of this book.
Download or read book The Night the Angels Came written by Chrissie Chapman and published by Monarch Books. This book was released on 2006-02-19 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Trained as a midwife, Chrissie Chapman went to Burundi in the nineties to open a maternity clinic and dispensary in a rural area of the country. She had been there just three years when a coup was declared, and the country descended into a state of civil war. It lasted for thirteen long years. During that time, God directed her to work with the orphans and widows. She started a centre for abandoned babies and traumatised children and saw the Lord performing remarkable miracles in the lives of people who had lost everything. Chrissie adopted three children herself, and has raised more than fifty others to young adulthood. Again and again she hs witnessed miracles of protection and provision. When the war started, Chrissie, her adopted children, and the health staff were living in a rural location on top of a mountain, in a healing centre, with maternity clinic and dispensary. Every night there was gunfire, and every day people would come seeking refuge. One night, she and David Ndarahutse, the mission director, were sitting praying amid the fighting, when David said, 'Chrissie, look up.' There were dozens of angels standing on top of the walls of the healing centre. That was the night the angels came. 'From that moment on,' Chrissie records, 'I have never experienced or felt fear for my life.' Today Chrissie divides her time between Burundi, where she continues to care for the teenagers in her charge, and England, Canada and America, where she speaks widely about the faithfulness and power of God.

Download or read book Living Happily As An Adult Baby written by Dylan Lewis and published by AB Discovery. This book was released on 2020-09-20 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Understanding. Knowledge. Insight. It is the goal of most people and humanity in general to understand and to gain knowledge. To understand our natural world. To understand space. To understand those things so tiny we can never see them. We want to understand what other people are saying, insight into what they are feeling and what makes them tick. For most people, it is natural to want to understand more about a wide variety of topics and disciplines. Perhaps the most important understanding of them all is the knowledge of self. Adult babies have traditionally not fared well in the area of understanding of ourselves. The few professional attempts to explain ABDL behaviour and thinking have been less than helpful and often insulting and deeply offensive. Being described as a paraphilia alongside and adjacent to paedophilia and other serious disorders has been the nightmare that has haunted the community for a generation. Slowly however, the light has been dawning on the extraordinary world of the adult baby. The first step was the recognition that being an adult baby is no mere affectation, fetish or odd choice of behaviour. It was the understanding that the baby self is a genuine and subjectively real identity. Not a thing, not a concept or a feeling, but an identity. A few professionals have belatedly drifted onto the scene and made a few inroads, but they have been well behind the small group of hard-working ABDLs themselves who have sought to build a body of understanding on who we are. Knowing who we are is the key to success, happiness and the ability to move forward. The works of B. Terrance Grey, Rosalie and Michael Bent led the way to building an intellectual basis of understanding of who Adult babies are. Then came Dylan Lewis, whose canon of work in this area has no peer. This new book – Living Happily as an Adult Baby – makes a promise in its title that is almost obscene in its arrogance. Adult Babies have often struggled with the power of their baby identity and happiness - especially long-term happiness – has often eluded them. This work is commended to all adult babies, their family and friends as it seeks to further humanity’s understanding of this most complex identity structure. The Adult Baby.
