Jan & Dean were among the most successful artists of the late 1950s through the mid-1960s, with hits including "Baby Talk," "Surf City," "Dead Man's Curve" and "The Little Old Lady (From Pasadena)." Slapstick humor and offbeat personas were a big part of their shtick, but Jan Berry was serious when it came to the studio. This book chronicles Jan's career as a songwriter and arranger--and his tenure as producer for Jan & Dean and other acts--with day-by-day entries detailing recording sessions, single and album releases, concerts and appearances, film and television projects, behind-the-scenes business and legal matters, chart positions and more. Extensive commentary from Berry's family, friends and colleagues is included. Studio invoices, contract details, tape box notes, copyright information and other particulars shed light on how music was made in the Hollywood studio system of the 1960s.

The Gloucestershire Forest of Dean is one of Britain's last ancient crown forests. Covering some 27,000 acres, this historic woodland has been a royal hunting ground, a source of timber for shipbuilding as well as a home to iron and coalmines. The villages and small market towns of the Forest boast a close-knit community and a rich and varied history. It is unsurprising, then, that the area has pubs dating back some 900 years that still retain their place at the heart of these neighbourhoods. Today these characterful traditional pubs and inns offer a warm welcome to the tourists who flock to this area of natural beauty, offering them a chance to mingle with the locals and maybe even meet the odd ghost of the Forest's vibrant past! Join Geoff Sandles as he introduces the pubs of the Forest of Dean, using old postcards and beautiful modern colour photography to tell their unique story.
The Forest of Dean is a guide to the region, between the Severn and Wye, that lies in the west of the county of Gloucestershire. Humphrey Phelps covers every aspect of the area, highlighting the changes that have occurred in the Forest, and describes the successive invasions from the Romans to Rank Xerox! The pages of this book are filled with history, folklore, characters (both famous and infamous) and great scenic descriptions, accompanied by photographs. This engaging testament to a fascinating area will appeal to both visitor and resident alike.
Join Ross Andrews on his journey through the magical haunts of the Forest of Dean. A ghost hunter for over twenty years, Ross takes the reader on an adventure right into the heart of the forest, revealing the most haunted tourist attractions so that you can go into them and investigate for yourself. So prepare yourself to be scared as he ventures through haunted castles, pubs, mines, and woodland in the Forest Full of Frights. This book has many aspects to it; firstly it takes you on a trip around the centre of the forest to several museums, castles and pubs. The second part of the book is about what is possibly the UK's most haunted building, St.Briavel's castle, describing the rooms with the most activity, and even how to get involved with a ghost hunt. The third part of the book is a further guide on how to become a ghost hunter yourself, giving you examples and experiments to do. An ideal book for anyone curious about the unexplained, or even a paranormal tourist travelling through the Forest of Dean, this is a truly frightening glimpse into the unknown. Turn the pages if you dare, and join Ross on the adventure of your life - or afterlife!

Wye Valley and Forest of Dean

This guide contains eight lovely walks in the beautiful Wye Valley between Hereford and Chepstow, and two in the sylvan Forest of Dean. Woodland walks feature prominently, reflecting the mostly rural and largely arboreal character of the region, set in Herefordshire, Gloucestershire and Monmouthshire. The River Wye has formed the boundary between England and Wales for centuries. The walk at Tintern, as well as enjoying the atmospheric abbey ruins, crosses the border from Wales into England and back again. Routes lead you to the imperious Wye Valley viewpoints at Symonds Yat Rock, the Devil’s Pulpit and the Eagle’s Nest, from where an extraordinary meander in the river can be seen at its best. Two of the more energetic walks follow a section of the Offa’s Dyke Path, from near Tidenham Chase, and descend the 365 Steps at Wyndcliff. More relaxing strolls can be enjoyed in riverside parkland at Ross-on-Wye; along the peaceful banks of the river below Capler Camp; and by the Wye in the historic cathedral city of Hereford. In the Forest of Dean, keep a look out for wild boar. At Beechinghurst, you could offset an adrenaline-fuelled treetop adventure with the benefits of quiet woodland walking; while at Speech House, there’s the opportunity to relish exotic and native trees at the Cyril Hart Arboretum.

It's her wedding day and it'll be the happiest day of her life...won't it? Amanda Dean would say she's an okay artist and a loyal friend, but what she's best at is falling in love. A self-proclaimed bi disaster who has had her heart broken more times than she cares to count, Amanda can't help opening herself up. As she gets ready on the day she's waited a lifetime for, memories of her past loves run through her mind, with one glaring red sign blinking above them--is this "the one"? Will it be: the fit water polo player, the fashionista, the dependable hedge fund manager, or the one where the timing was never quite right. Now, on the day of her wedding--a day where everything already seems to be going wrong--Mandy must decide if she's willing to risk it all one last time or if she'll escape while her whole heart is still intact. Equal parts heartwarming and bittersweet, The Seemingly Impossible Love Life of Amanda Dean expertly weaves the wonder and terror of falling in love into a beautifully crafted story about the joy that can be found when you're willing to dust yourself off and try again.

From prehistoric times until late in the twentieth century iron was vital to the livelihood of those who lived and worked in the Forest of Dean. From Roman times onwards iron from the Forest was also vital to the national economy. This is the story of the Forest's iron industry.
From master storyteller David Almond comes a gripping, exquisitely written novel about a hidden-away child who emerges into a broken world. Billy Dean is a secret child. He has a beautiful young mother and a father who arrives at night carrying the scents of candles and incense and cigarettes. Birds fly to his window. Mice run out from his walls. His world is a carpet, a bed, pictures of the holy island, and a single locked door. His father fills his mind and his dreams with mysterious tales and memories and dreadful warnings. But then his father disappears, and Billy's mother brings him out into the world at last. He learns the horrifying story of what was saved and what was destroyed on the day he was born, the day the bombers came to Blinkbonny. The kind butcher, Mr. McCaufrey, and the medium, Missus Malone, are waiting for him. He becomes The Angel Child, one who can heal the living, contact the dead, bring comfort to a troubled world. But there is one figure who is beyond healing, who comes looking for Billy himself -- and is determined on a kind of reckoning.
Early Prose Writings of William Dean Howells, 1852–1861

While William Dean Howells is today best remembered as Mark Twain's staunchest defender, Howells was, at his peak, the unrivaled man of letters in America: he had no contemporary equal. The achievements of both Twain and Henry James have since surpassed those of Howells in the literary hierarchy, but the work of Howells still remains an important part of American letters. In The Early Prose Writings of William Dean Howells, 1852–1861, Thomas Wortham provides a chronological assortment of Howells' first prose compositions, beginning with apprentice pieces published before the writer's eighteenth birthday. Born in Martin's Ferry, Ohio, Howells also lived in Hamilton, Dayton, Cincinnati, and Columbus, where Howells' father, a printer and newspaper publisher, would move the family and set up shop. Howells started writing as a newspaperman, and this volume assembles pieces by Howells which appeared in the Ashtabula Sentinel, the Kingsville Academy Casket, and the Ohio Farmer, as well as the complete text of "The Independent Candidate"—his first attempt in print of an extended work of fiction—serialized in the Ashtabula Sentinel in 1854–55. Also included here is Howels' novela, Geoffrey: A Study of American Life, a thoughtful psychological study, which was never published, as well as Howells' letters to the New York World, in which he recorded his impressions and experiences relating to Ohio's early response to the declaration of the War Between the States. Dr. Wortham furnishes extensive source annotations to document quotations and references as well as framing each selection by Howells with background and explanatory glosses. As he points out, "Howells' literary life is not wanting in sufficient documentation," but his apprentice work—"that long foreground which has in his instance been too largely represented by a handful of mediocre poems, has been lost in old files of newspapers, journals, and manuscripts." Thanks to Dr. Wortham's careful scholarship, American literature now has a much more detailed and accurate picture of the young Howells and his early works.
