The Phantom Empire is a brilliant, daring, and utterly original book that analyzes (even as it exemplifies) the effect that the image saturation of a hundred years of moving pictures have had on human culture and consciousness.

“Ladies and gentlemen,” the Lataran president began grimly, eyes scanning the room, “we thank you for making time in your busy schedules to come here. Alarus and I are jointly hosting this urgent meeting. We want to make it clear from the outset that neither of us alone originated the request for your presence. We have a situation which transcends our national interests.” Three hundred years have passed since the events of The Search, the first book in the Devistor series, and the western hemisphere of the planet Neptu has developed into fifteen disparate nations with economic ties, the two most powerful being Latara and undersea Zenaja. Out of nowhere, their uneasy peace is jolted by an entity calling itself the Union of Neptu, which launches a shocking cyber-attack on every nation simultaneously and demands that all the governments surrender to them. Zenaja and Latara summon all the other nations to a conference and then head up a search for this mysterious Union. What they discover is absolutely world-changing, but a nationalist political faction in Zenaja seizes control, and rather than uniting against a common enemy, Neptu is soon teetering on the brink of world war. Guided by the mystical Cat, who survives throughout the centuries, the current people of Neptu must somehow face these epic challenges, confront their complicated past, and find a way to devise a different world—lest none of them survive. With unique and compelling characters, a potent mix of fantasy and science fiction, and a hard-driving plot with surprises around every corner, The Phantom Empire returns readers to a deeply fascinating world with an anguished history.

Download Hollywood Musicals You Missed Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
Pre-World War II Hollywood musicals weren't only about Astaire and Rogers, Mickey and Judy, Busby Berkeley, Bing Crosby, or Shirley Temple. The early musical developed through tangents that reflected larger trends in film and American culture at large. Here is a survey of select titles with a variety of influences: outsized songwriter personalities, hubbub over "hillbilly" and cowboy stereotypes, the emergence of swing, and the brief parade of opera stars to celluloid. Featured movies range from the smash hit Alexander's Ragtime Band (1938), to obscurities such as Are You There? (1930) and Swing, Sister, Swing (1938), to the high-grossing but now forgotten Mountain Music (1937), and It's Great to Be Alive (1933), a zesty pre-Code musical/science-fiction/comedy mishmash. Also included are some of the not-so-memorable pictures made by some of the decade's greatest musical stars.

The first comprehensive history of the Lakota Indians and their profound role in shaping America's history Named One of the New York Times Critics' Top Books of 2019 - Named One of the 10 Best History Books of 2019 by Smithsonian Magazine - Winner of the MPIBA Reading the West Book Award for narrative nonfiction "Turned many of the stories I thought I knew about our nation inside out."--Cornelia Channing, Paris Review, Favorite Books of 2019 "My favorite non-fiction book of this year."--Tyler Cowen, Bloomberg Opinion "A briliant, bold, gripping history."--Simon Sebag Montefiore, London Evening Standard, Best Books of 2019 "All nations deserve to have their stories told with this degree of attentiveness"--Parul Sehgal, New York Times This first complete account of the Lakota Indians traces their rich and often surprising history from the early sixteenth to the early twenty-first century. Pekka Hämäläinen explores the Lakotas' roots as marginal hunter-gatherers and reveals how they reinvented themselves twice: first as a river people who dominated the Missouri Valley, America's great commercial artery, and then--in what was America's first sweeping westward expansion--as a horse people who ruled supreme on the vast high plains. The Lakotas are imprinted in American historical memory. Red Cloud, Crazy Horse, and Sitting Bull are iconic figures in the American imagination, but in this groundbreaking book they emerge as something different: the architects of Lakota America, an expansive and enduring Indigenous regime that commanded human fates in the North American interior for generations. Hämäläinen's deeply researched and engagingly written history places the Lakotas at the center of American history, and the results are revelatory.

This series of biographical profiles shines a spotlight on that special place "Where the West meets the Guitar." From Gene Autry and Roy Rogers to contemporary artists like Michael Murphy, Red Steagall, Don Edwards and Riders in the Sky, many entertainers have performed music of the West, a genre separate from mainstream country music and yet an important part of the country music heritage. Once called "Country and Western," it is now described as "Country or Western." Though much has been written about "Country," very little has been written about "Western"--until now. Featured are a number of photos of the top stars in Western music, past and present. Also included is an extensive bibliography of works related to the Western music field.
