George McGovern and the Democratic Insurgents

George McGovern and the Democratic Insurgents

Hal Elliott Wert; Frank Mankiewicz

University of Nebraska Press
2015
pokkari
South Dakota senator George McGovern’s 1972 presidential bid was one of the most memorable campaigns in American political history. Despite McGovern’s landslide loss to the incumbent Richard Nixon, McGovern’s campaign attracted widespread grassroots support, and his campaign posters represent a landmark in the history of U.S. campaign memorabilia in terms of the sheer number and quality of posters produced in support of the candidate. Like Barack Obama’s run for the presidency in 2008, McGovern’s campaign stoked the imagination of the artistic community. World-famous artists-including Andy Warhol, Alexander Calder, Larry Rivers, Sam Francis, Thomas W. Benton, Sister Corita, and Paul Davis-produced posters in support of McGovern that captured a generation’s efforts to bring about major political change. George McGovern and the Democratic Insurgents, with nearly three hundred stunning images, provides an illustrated journey through the protest and psychedelic rock posters of the 1960s, the posters of Eugene McCarthy’s 1968 presidential campaign, the poster explosion of George McGovern’s 1972 campaign, and the best campaign posters from 1976 to 2012. A historical examination of the graphic precedents for this politicized art form, Hal Elliott Wert’s collection offers readers a singular insight into artistic invention and activism in the United States.
Hoover the Fishing President

Hoover the Fishing President

pokkari
An intensely private and shy man, Hoover the person was largely unknown to the American public. In this extensively researched biography devoted to the angling side of Hoover, author Hal Elliott Wert examines the often overlooked life of our thirty-first president. In a presidency plagued by the Depression, in a time when the country was poised between the agrarian society of the past and the advent of a modern professional class, Herbert Hoover faced numerous challenges. A thinker and a doer who shaped the way we live today, Hoover found relief from the stresses of his professional life in his pastime, fishing. Herbert Hoover fished near his hometown of West Branch, Iowa, as a boy and then moved to Oregon, where he fished the Rogue, Willamette, McKenzie, and Columbia rivers. As a young man, he attended Stanford and fished and camped throughout the West during breaks. He fished and spent time in the outdoors throughout his life and especially in his years as president. He founded Cave Man Camp at Bohemian Grove north of San Francisco, a yearly getaway for powerful Republicans, and Camp Rapidan in Virginia while he was in the White House. In addition to freshwater fishing, Hoover enjoyed fishing the salt. On trips to Florida later in his life, he stalked bonefish and fished for permit and the larger species, such as sailfish.

In the Depression election of 1932, Franklin Roosevelt crushed Herbert Hoover in one of the most lopsided presidential contests in American history. The White House rivals remained enemies long after: Hoover opposed the New Deal, and FDR found Hoover a convenient punching bag in elections throughout the Thirties. From Coolidge’s death in 1933 to Truman’s departure in 1953, Hoover was the only living former president of either party, and he maintained a strong international reputation, thanks to his achievements as an engineer and his efforts during World War I to organize aid for the starving millions of Europe. And yet, in nearly all accounts of the ferocious debate over American aid to Europe before the U.S. entered World War II, Hoover’s role has been overlooked. Hoover versus Roosevelt tells the story of how the U.S. entered World War II through the lens of Herbert Hoover. The debate over entering World War II before Pearl Harbor remains one of the most contentious in American history. Historian Arthur Schlesinger called it “the most savage political debate of my lifetime”—more vicious, that great scholar of American history thought, than the arguments over McCarthyism and Vietnam. Most accounts have focused on isolationism versus internationalism, Lindbergh versus Roosevelt, but the story is deeper and more complex than that and involves the transition of an older era of international relations—exemplified by Hoover, who believed in the Geneva Accord, the Hague Conventions, and public-private partnerships to address world crises—to the modern era of total war.Widely and deeply researched in an array of rarely used secondary and primary sources, both domestic and international, Hoover versus Roosevelt brings a fresh perspective to a time in our nation’s history when our country was deeply divided over what now seems a “done deal.”

A visual chronicle of the passion and creativity behind Project 270, a 2020 get-out-the-vote campaign from Mana Public Arts, featuring 65 posters by 70 established street artists. Ahead of the US presidential election in 2020, and with the intention of empowering young voters aged 18–36, Mana Public Arts (based in Jersey City, NJ) created Project 270, a public art initiative that enlisted nearly 70 established and emerging street artists to create posters encouraging viewers to Get Out the Vote. Each of the unique 65 posters created for Project 270 was impressed with a “postmark,” representing each of the 50 states, Puerto Rico, Washington, D.C., and select major American cities. These compelling posters were distributed physically throughout those locations, and shared widely through social media channels. This book captures the fervor and dedication of those involved. It stands as a testament to the passion, creativity, and collective endeavor that fueled Project 270, emphasizing the urgency of civic participation. Includes Works by the Following Artists: Swoon, Good Drink, Chor Boogie, Carlton Banxx, Elms One, Krave x Gems, Atomik, 6Cents, Maya Hayuk, Ang R. Bennett, Ninobuni, Andre Russell, ENX, Ron English, Captain Eyeliner, Osiris Rain, Vincent Valdez, Carlos Walker, Jesse Brown, Modifymarla, Mauricio Ramirez, Jonathan Mannion & Dr. Fahamu Pecou, Amy Rattner, Bob Faust & Nick Cave, and others.

Big adventures on the high seas--from one of the greatest seafaring writers of our age Hal Roth's vivid, authentic tales of the sea have riveted readers around the world for forty years. Here, in one volume, are three of his classic sea stories, each one a white-knuckled, rail-down voyage into the unknown. A hard-working San Francisco husband and wife abandon their jobs, their security, and, some would say, their sanity to sail their 35-foot sloop to Japan and back--the long way! Over the next nineteen months, they discover exotic islands, fascinating people, and a whole new way of life. A few years later these intrepid voyagers decide to try their luck against Cape Horn, but they will need a lot more than luck to survive the vicious storms, violent seas, and perilous shores of the world's most dangerous stretch of water. Then nine courageous sailors accept a challenge to do what has never been done before: to race alone, in a small sailboat, around the world--nonstop. Only one will complete the race; seven will be forced to withdraw, and one will simply disappear. "Roth writes with grace, humor, and poetic insight about the vastness and beauty of the ocean." --Library Journal "By all means read all of Hal Roth you can find."--Practical Sailor "Roth's books about his life at sea, including Two on a Big Ocean and Two Against Cape Horn, are universally listed among the most influential sailing books ever published."--SpinSheet "Roth can charm you out of your armchair."--Kirkus

Since the late 1980s, Hal Hartley has challenged standards of realist narrative cinema with daring narrative constructions, character development, and the creation of an unconventional visual world. In this pioneering critical overview of his work and its cultural-historical context, Mark L. Berrettini discusses seven of Hartley's feature films, including The Unbelievable Truth, Trust, Simple Men, Amateur, Henry Fool, Fay Grim, and The Book of Life. Drawing on journalism, theories of representation, narrative and genre, and cinema history, Berrettini discusses the absurdist-comedic representation of serious themes in Hartley's films: impossible love, coincidence and human relations, extreme isolation, and the restrictions posed by gender norms. He looks at the films' consistently absurd tone and notes how these themes reappear within framing narratives that shift from the seemingly mundane in Hartley's earliest works to the vibrantly creative and fantastic in his later films. Employing close analysis and theories related to cinematic narrative and to realism, the book's critical appraisal of Hartley's films considers aspects of American independent cinema and postwar European cinema, antirealism, and minimalism. The volume concludes with a pair of in-depth interviews with the director from two distinct points in his career.

(Music First Express). Like the Hal Leonard Rhythm Flashcard Kit, this innovative kit by master teacher Cheryl Lavender extends the learning into melody patterns and likewise provides motivation, stimulation, and practice for your students in a fun whole-class or cooperative learning situation. The melodic patterns are sequenced by difficulty (S-M and S-M-L, the pentatonic scale and the diatonic scale) and each of the 48 cards features a common melodic pattern. But the greatest benefit of this fun and practical approach to learning is that both sides of the cards are laminated for durability and for use with wipe-away dry erase markers. Side 2 of each card features a blank staff, so that you can create your own melodic patterns for students to read, or for the students to use in learning to write notes and intervals, melodic dictation, and even their own songs. This classroom-tested kit comes complete with a wealth of ideas in the easy-to-use instruction booklet all enclosed in the handy cover wrap. Whether you use the ideas suggested or let it be a springboard to your own creativity, you may never have to cut up poster board again For Grades 3-8.
