Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Barbecue: It’s America in a mouthful. The story of barbecue touches almost every aspect of our history. It involves indigenous culture, the colonial era, slavery, the Civil War, the settling of the West, the coming of immigrants, the Great Migration, the rise of the automobile, the expansion of suburbia, the rejiggering of gender roles. It encompasses every region and demographic group. It is entwined with our politics and tangled up with our race relations. Jim Auchmutey follows the delicious and contentious history of barbecue in America from the ox roast that celebrated the groundbreaking for the U.S. Capitol building to the first barbecue launched into space almost two hundred years later. The narrative covers the golden age of political barbecues, the evolution of the barbecue restaurant, the development of backyard cooking, and the recent rediscovery of traditional barbecue craft. Along the way, Auchmutey considers the mystique of barbecue sauces, the spectacle of barbecue contests, the global influences on American barbecue, the roles of race and gender in barbecue culture, and the many ways barbecue has been portrayed in our art and literature. It’s a spicy story that involves noted Americans from George Washington and Abraham Lincoln to Louis Armstrong, Elvis Presley, Martin Luther King Jr., and Barack Obama.

Download or read book Strange Country written by Mark Dapin and published by Pan Australia. This book was released on 2008-11-01 with total page 395 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This book is about the people I met as I crisscrossed Australia by train and plane and L-plated car: the undefeated dreamers and wild-hearted romantics, the obsessed hobbyists and beautiful failures. It is about heroes and legends, illusions, delusions and hope, and one or two men with shit for brains who ought to be locked up." As anyone who's ever read Mark Dapin's column and features in Good Weekend knows, he's an immensely funny, acute and vivid observer of Australian life. In Strange Country, he takes us on a journey through a very different Australia - a country that's eccentric, puzzling, big-hearted, small-minded, nostalgic and sometimes just plain mad. From the last travelling boxing tent to feral urban sewer rats to Vietnam Veteran bikies and the annual Parkes Elvis Festival, his writing illuminates the stranger side of Australian life in a travel book like no other.

Download or read book KOREA Shut up and eat your C rations An Army Draftee s Humorous Look Back written by Daniel Fiddler and published by America Star Books. This book was released on 2015-01-26 with total page 119 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1956 I was a young army draftee disembarking from a troop ship in Inchon, South Korea. I had no idea where I would be sent, or what I would encounter. We were conditioned not to question, but to follow orders. To the army, you are just a number on a dog tag, a pawn to be moved at will on their military chessboard. There were two things the Army could not train out of us drafted pawns: our resourcefulness and our sense-of-humor. The ability to overcome the difficult, and laugh at the ridiculous carried us through whatever we encountered. “In this robust, rewarding memoir, author Daniel Fiddler recounts his experience as a young US army draftee, deployed, as part of the U.N. peacekeeping mission to Korea, stationed in the tense Demilitarized Zone, just after war with North Korea had ended. From stifling summer heat, frigid winter cold, to the ever present danger of land mines, un-exploded ordnance, spies and infiltrators, Fiddler paints a deft, vivid picture of what it was like when the war was over but enemy guns were still pointed across the DMZ. A great read for anyone who was there or who wants to know what it was like to have been there.” Ken Luber, author Match to the Heart,—Everybody’s Shadow
