  • ISBN : 9780738577296
  • Pages : 132 pages

Download or read book The Chicago Music Scene written by Dean Milano and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2009 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the story of two decades of the Chicago music scene-the 1960s and 1970s, an incredibly vibrant period in urban and suburban music scenes across the country and throughout the world. Chicago was a major player throughout those decades. It was a time when jazz, rock and roll, country and western, folk, blues, and R & B flowed through the streets of Chicagoland. Much has been written about the national and international talent of that time, but not enough has been written regarding local music scenes. This story focuses on the city of Chicago (along with its suburban club scene) and the homegrown performers who made the 1960s and 1970s one of the most electrifying and memorable periods in music history. Some of those players went all the way to the big time, while others made their mark and disappeared. But they all made a difference in their own way, and for those who were there, it is a time they will never forget.

Book La Grange and La Grange Park  Illinois

Download or read book La Grange and La Grange Park Illinois written by RoseAnna Mueller and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 1999 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La Grange was incorporated in 1879, and La Grange Park in 1892. Both areas were farmland before being developed as residential communities. Today, a large section of La Grange is a National Register Historic District, and this area is dominated by large Victorian and early-twentieth-century homes. In fact, the most striking feature of La Grange and La Grange Park is the well-preserved state of their vintage housing. Both villages have maintained a small-town look and feel that has attracted many families to the area. During World War I, the Marx Brothers, in order to avoid military service, bought a farm just south of the La Grange village limits. A biography of Groucho includes some humorous recollections of life on that farm. La Grange is also lucky enough to be home to three Frank Lloyd Wright houses. Outside of these well-known attributes of La Grange and La Grange Park, the authors also explore the history of the early settlers of the area and show how the residents lived, worked, played, worshiped, and attended school in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Through the use of over 200 vintage photographs from the La Grange Area Historical Society, individual residents, and community organizations, RoseAnna and Robert Mueller offer a glimpse of La Grange's old-fashioned streets that have made La Grange a popular setting for local television commercials and even the odd Hollywood film.

  • Release : 2021-10-05

Download or read book Church of the Wild written by Victoria Loorz and published by Broadleaf Books . This book was released on 2021-10-05 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 2024 Nautilus Book Awards Silver Winner in "Religion / Spirituality of Western Thought" CategoryWinner of the Living Now Book Award, Church of the Wild reminds us that once upon a time, humans lived in an intimate relationship with nature. Whether disillusioned by the dominant church or unfulfilled by traditional expressions of faith, many of us long for a deeper spirituality. Victoria Loorz certainly did. Coping with an unraveling vocation, identity, and planet, Loorz turned to the wanderings of spiritual leaders and the sanctuary of the natural world, eventually cofounding the Wild Church Network and Seminary of the Wild. With an ecospiritual lens on biblical narratives and a fresh look at a community larger than our own species, Church of the Wild uncovers the wild roots of faith and helps us deepen our commitment to a suffering earth by falling in love with it--and calling it church. Through mystical encounters with wild deer, whispers from a scrubby oak tree, wordless conversation with a cougar, and more, Loorz helps us connect to a love that literally holds the world together--a love that calls us into communion with all creatures.

  • ISBN : 9783038602477
  • Pages : 384 pages

Download or read book Land Milk Honey written by GOTTESMAN ET AL and published by . This book was released on 2021-07-12 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A unique documentation of how ideology translated into colonialism, settlement, urbanization, infrastructure, and mechanized agriculture radically reshaped the environment of Palestine-Israel. The biblical metaphor of a "Land of Milk and Honey" has denoted for millennia a prophecy and promise for plenitude. This book, published in conjunction with the Israeli Pavilion at the seventeenth International Architecture Exhibition of the Venice Biennale, examines the reciprocal relations between humans, animals, and the environment within the context of modern Palestine-Israel, and demonstrates how this promise has become an action-plan over the course of the twentieth century. Land. Milk. Honey investigates how colonialism, urbanization, and mechanized agriculture radically reshaped the environment and altered human-animal relationships. It shows how the celebrated metamorphosis of the region into a prosperous agricultural landscape was entangled with irreparable damage to the environment, as well as the disruption of human communities. And it highlights the predicaments that both the environment and its inhabitants are facing after the territory has, over a century, been the testbed of modernist aspirations for plenitude. The fundamental changes the region has undergone are portrayed through the stories of five local animals: cow, goat, honeybee, water buffalo, and bat. These case-studies and analysis construct a spatial history of a place in five acts: Mechanization, Territory, Cohabitation, Extinction, and the Post-Human. A rich collection of literary excerpts, historical documents, archival photos, as well as short original vignettes reveals the story of this remarkable transfiguration and redesign.

Book Diamonds and Pearls

Download or read book Diamonds and Pearls written by and published by TeNeues. This book was released on 2013 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Belgian photographer Marc Lagrange has quickly gained a reputation as one of the most original and talented erotic photographers around. Taking a distinctive approach to setting voluptuous scenes, Lagrange meticulously composes timeless settings--with each location and prop carefully chosen to enhance the romantic and revealing mood. Building trust and chemistry with his models, Lagrange is daring but never crosses into mere titillation. The tension is palpable and a sense of mystery pervades each elaborate vignette. Combining the glamour of classic Hollywood with the sensibility of an Old Master painting, all his alluring heroines seem at ease and approachable--yet just tantalizingly out of reach. English/German/French/Dutch ILLUSTRATIONS: 120 colour & duotone photographs

Book First Call for the Burley Express

Download or read book First Call for the Burley Express written by Ron Sheeley and published by . This book was released on 2017-01-09 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "First Call For The Burley Express" follows the adolescent adventures of eight guys from Western Springs, Illinois, an affluent suburb of Chicago, who spent their teenage years taxing the patience of local authorities and exploring all there was to do in downtown Chicago and beyond. Their adventures, and their often-hilarious shared times, helped form enduring friendships that lasted over fifty years. The wisdom they acquired, and the life lessons they learned along the way, became their foundation of experience as they somehow made their way to become responsible adults. As the friends coped with insecurities of high school social life, they found a shared outlet in the big city next store, taking chances and somehow surviving, in an era of semi-lawlessness and mischief that has since largely disappeared---cherry-bombing the town police station on Halloween, sneaking into the box seats in the friendly confines of Wrigley Field, hopping a southbound freight train in Champaign-Urbana, Illinois heading to the Big Easy, careening raucously in a 1953 Ford station wagon "transportation cooperative" to the Follies Burlesque Theatre on South State Street, hitchhiking on the old US 66 highway, walking boldly into the otherwise-segregated Regal Theatre on Chicago's south side to hear The Crystals sing "He's Sure The Boy I Love". These were the late 50s and early 60s, idyllic times to be growing up close to and inside of one of the world's great cities. This memoir chronicles the laughter and highlights, the failures and frustrations, of young men in a time and place that can never and will never be duplicated.
