Merovingian Archaeology of South-west Gaul, Volume I

Merovingian Archaeology of South-west Gaul, Volume I

Edward James

British Archaeological Reports Oxford Ltd
1977
nidottu
Apart from the brief blaze of glory in the late fourth and fifth centuries, with the flourishing of the Bordeaux schools and the reign of the Visigothic kings, south-west Gaul is very much a terra incognita from the time of Caesar's conquest down to the emergence of Romanesque architecture and the poetry of the troubadors. It is usually on the periphery of affairs, it nourished no authors of importance save in that one period of a hundred years, and it has attracted few historians in modern times.

Harry Ferguson: Tractor Genius

Harry Ferguson: Tractor Genius

Edward James

Hamilton-Vale Publishing
2021
nidottu
Harry Ferguson was an engineering genius. His ability to visualise and build a new system that changed the role of the tractor on the farm, changed farming around the world. The system in use today is still the same system he developed, all those years ago and this book tells how he saved countless farmers lives. We also read how the design changed the way tractors are used on farms. We hear about the effect on the 1930’s Wall St crash ans the need for the tractor and how the little grey Fergie saved an Australian town. The story then tells us about a Danish company that has made the tractor a media star. Harry Ferguson and his tractor, changed the world.

Man-Eaters of Kumaon

Man-Eaters of Kumaon

Edward James Corbett

OUP India
1997
nidottu
A true classic and one of few books of its kind. Written by a hunter who later founded a tiger sanctuary, it gives us a rare insight into the hunter's mindset and simultaneously shows us the great amount of respect and awe Corbett has for tigers and other animals of the jungles he inhabits.

Mayakovsky

Mayakovsky

Edward James Brown

Princeton University Press
2015
pokkari
An absorbing portrait of an extraordinary man, an analysis of the work of a great Russian poet, and the evocation of a crucial period in Russian cultural history--all are combined in Edward J. Brown's literary biography of Vladimir Mayakovsky. It is the only book to reveal the whole Mayakovsky, not just aspects of his tortured personality or artistic work, and will be immediately recognized as definitive. Mayakovsky contributed to the cultural life of Soviet Russia not only as a lyric poet but as a playwright, graphic artist, and satirist of the conventional art forms of his day. By examining his art in terms of his life, Edward Brown shows how intensely personal it was and how bound up in the literary and political history of his time. The intellectual turmoil of the period is skillfully re-created, especially the nature, ambience, and personalities of Russian futurism. Above all, the book reveals the man--a committed Bolshevik and a dedicated artist, but also a hypochondriac, compulsive gambler, and eventual suicide. Originally published in 1973. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.
