John Wanamaker, Part 1

Book Description

1926. Other volumes in this set include ISBN number(s): 0766161536. Volume 1 of 2. John Wanamaker earned money for seventy-five years. In 1922, the man of eighty-four jumped out of bed eager for the day's work. He did not die of old age. When the last severe cold compelled him to stop going to his office a few weeks before his death, he was mentally alert and physically vigorous, and he was holding in his own hands the many threads of his vast business, religion, and public interests. He did not think that his work was finished. He was not ready to retire. That he was going to die never entered his head. A well-known businessman, Wanamaker started a men's clothing business with his brother-in-law, Nathan Brown, and within ten years it developed into the largest retail clothing store for men in the United States, which was later expanded into a department store. He also served at the Postmaster General during his long and prosperous life. These volumes tell the story of this fascinating man and the life he led.

The Early NFL As Told By The Era's Players.......2007-01-05

In the same vein as Lawrence Ritter with "The Glory Of Their Times," Richard Whittingham interviewed several of the diminishing handful of participants in the NFL's early days, took their words and wove an interesting and insightful book. Much like baseball when it started professionally, scheduling, paychecks, record-keeping and crowd size was often haphazard in those days, and players often played out of love of the game or to pick up some extra money aside from their regular jobs, mostly the latter. But the stories that they tell are wonderful - rugged men playing in football's infancy, helping to build the league that we know today through their legendary work. Many of the players included in the book are enshrined in the Hall of Fame, so these guys had the opportunity to be around a long time and see a lot of changes going on. It's a fascinating book about the birth and growth of the league, told by the guys who were there to help it grow - I highly recommend reading this book.

A GOOD READ ABOUT EARLY NFL.......2005-12-19

THIS IS A BOOK ABOUT NFL STARS THAT PLAYED IN THE 1920'S THRU THE 1940'S. SUCH STARS AS RED GRANGE, SAMMY BAUGH, DON HUTSON, AND SID LUCKAMN ARE FEATURED. THEIR STORIES AND INSIGHTS ARE VERY INTERSTING AND ENTERTAINING. I BELIEVE THE AUTHOR RICHARD WHITTINGHAM, DID A GREAT JOB. THIS WAS AN ERA WHEN MEN WERE MEN, THEY PLAYED THE ENTIRE GAME. IF YOU ARE INTERESTED HOW THE GAME WAS PLAYED BACK THEN OR ARE A REAL HISTORIAN OF PRO FOOTBALL THIS IS A GREAT READ FOR YOU. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS BOOK.

Sport stories that are unknown and insightful.......1999-11-08

Stories about great athletes that were famous and not so famous. Each of the chapters talks about an athlete that contributed to the sport in very unique ways. After reading it, I wanted to know more about some of the characters that were great athletes and times very humorous. It's a book I will re-read and recommend highly.

Book Description

The years 1907-1913 mark a crucial transitional moment in American cinema. As moving picture shows changed from mere novelty to an increasingly popular entertainment, fledgling studios responded with longer running times and more complex storytelling. A growing trade press and changing production procedures also influenced filmmaking. In Early American Cinema in Transition, Charlie Keil looks at a broad cross-section of fiction films to examine the formal changes in cinema of this period and the ways that filmmakers developed narrative techniques to suit the fifteen-minute, one-reel format.

Keil outlines the kinds of narratives that proved most suitable for a single reel's duration, the particular demands that time and space exerted on this early form of film narration, and the ways filmmakers employed the unique features of a primarily visual medium to craft stories that would appeal to an audience numbering in the millions. He underscores his analysis with a detailed look at six films: The Boy Detective; The Forgotten Watch; Rose O'Salem-Town; Cupid's Monkey Wrench; Belle Boyd, A Confederate Spy; and Suspense.

Book Description

The Seven Addictions and Five Professions of Anita Berber is the first contemporary biography of a notorious actor/dancer/poet/playwright who scandalized sex-obsessed Weimar Berlin during the 1920s.

In an era where everything was permitted, Anita Berber's celebrations of "Depravity, Horror and Ecstasy" were condemned and censored. She often haunted Weimar Berlin's hotel lobbies, nightclubs and casinos, radiantly naked except for an elegant sable wrap, a pet monkey hanging from her neck, and a silver brooch packed with cocaine. Multi-talented Anita saw no boundaries between her personal life and her taboo-shattering performances. As such, she was Europe's first postmodern woman.

Among those Anita Berber claimed as members of her vast sexual harem were Marlene Dietrich, Magnus Hirschfeld (the founder of modern sexology and gay liberation), Klaus Mann, Conrad Veidt, Lawrence Durrell, and the King of Yugoslavia. Berber acted in Fritz Lang's Dr. Mabuse: The Gambler and starred in the silent epic, Lucifer. Even Leni Riefenstahl credits Berber for inspiring her controversial career. After sated Berliners finally tired of Anita Berber's libidinous antics, she became a "carrion soul that even the hyenas ignored," dying in 1928 at the age of 29.

The Seven Addictions and Five Professions of Anita Berber chronicles a remarkable career, including over 150 photographs and drawings that recreate Anita's enduring "Repertoire of the Damned."

The career story of actor, dancer, poet, and sex culture icon Anita Berber.......2006-09-12

The Seven Addictions And Five Professions Of Anita Berber: Weimar Berlin's Priestess Of Depravity is the career story of actor, dancer, poet, and sex culture icon Anita Berber, who scandalized Weimar Berlin by appearing naked in nightclubs and casinos save for a sable wrap. Her performance in Expressionist films, her disregard of all taboos and her drug habits all contributed to a life devoted to casting off restraints. Dozens of black-and-white photographs and drawings recreating Anita's "Repertoire of the Damned" illustrate this one-of-a-kind tell-all of Europe's first postmodern woman.

"She was the most remarkable spirit that I ever met in the weird underworld of human sexuality.".......2006-09-10

Author Mel Gordon details a glittering, decadent Weimar Berlin in the book, "The Seven Addictions and Five Professions of Anita Berber: Weimer Berlin's Priestess of Depravity." Post WWI Berlin "became the world showcase of nude dance and the erotic revue-sketch", and with the catastrophic devaluation of the German Mark, "moral degeneration" reigned in a city that rapidly became a metropolis of exotic, erotic cabaret performances. During her brief, explosive career Anita Berber was Weimar Berlin's "most widely discussed female personality." She performed to packed theatres, outraging her audiences, sharply dividing critics, and shocking society with the scandals that surrounded her both on and off stage. With her perfect, lithe body, dancer and performance artist Anita Berber reigned supreme.

Gordon charts the meteoric rise and tragic fall of the notorious dancer. During her short, brilliant, and self-destructive life, she earned many names, and was called a "totally perverted woman", the "Madonna of Dresden", the "Countess of Sin", "a living embodiment of sin", and "an incarnation of the perverse." Gordon offers the reader a portrait of a difficult life--fraught with public scandal, private demons, and an avant-garde approach to dance that brought Berber the wrong sort of audience. Gordon argues that the very audience who flocked to Berber for her scandalous naked dances could not appreciate the artistic relevance of her performances, and thus heckled--and ultimately abused her.

Gordon tracks Berlin's long-standing tradition with Naked Dance as an art form and traces Berber's career from her early dance training to German Expressionist Richard-Oswald films. But it was Berber's ability to dance that brought Berlin--at least temporarily--to her feet.

The book examines Berber's disastrous relationship with petty criminal, con man, and fellow dancer--Sebastian Droste. Included are details of Droste's post-Berber career in America and his membership in a notorious New York sex cult. The major scandals in Berber's life are examined--her three husbands, her affairs with the sexually obsessed Gerda and her daughter Elsa, and the "lovesick" Baroness Leonie Puttkamer-Gessmann. Berber's health steadily declined as her various addictions grew uncontrollable, and she rapidly became a "creative liability" on stage--even whacking a businessman over the head with a bottle of champagne one evening.

The book also serves as a glimpse into artistic life of Weimar Berlin--and there are mentions here of many notables--including Leni Riefenstahl (she was Berber's understudy for one engagement), Conrad Veidt, Dr. Magnus Hirschfeld, Marlene Dietrich, and Fritz Lang. The text is peppered with marvelous photographs, posters and graphics depicting various Berber routines (including the Dances of Depravity, Horror, and Ecstasy). Additional materials follow the text--including poems by Berber and Droste, synopses of Berber's dance performances, and a bibliography. It's sadly ironic that Anita Berber--who once was so infamous--has now almost disappeared, and it is a particular joy for those interested in Berber (me) that Mel Gordon wrote this work on a much-neglected artist. For more on the life of Anita Berber, I recommend the film "Anita: Dances of Vice" by Rosa von Praunheim--displacedhuman

Book Description

Newly updated for Excel 2002, Writing Excel Macros with VBA, 2nd Edition provides Excel power-users, as well as programmers who are unfamiliar with the Excel object model, with a solid introduction to writing Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) macros and programs for Excel. In particular, the book focuses on:

The Visual Basic Editor and the Excel VBA programming environment. Excel features a complete, state-of-the-art integrated development environment for writing, running, testing, and debugging VBA macros.

The VBA programming language, the same programming language used by the other applications in Microsoft Office XP and 2000, as well as by the retail editions of Visual Basic 6.0. The Excel object model, including new objects and new members of existing objects in Excel 2002. Excel exposes nearly all of its functionality through its object model, which is the means by which Excel can be controlled programmatically using VBA. While the Excel object model, with 192 objects, is the second largest among the Office applications, you need to be familiar with only a handful of objects to write effective macros. Writing Excel Macros focuses on these essential objects, but includes a discussion of many more objects as well. Writing Excel Macros with VBA, 2nd Edition is written in a terse, no-nonsense manner that is characteristic of Steven Roman's straightforward, practical approach. Instead of a slow-paced tutorial with a lot of handholding, Roman offers the essential information about Excel VBA that you must master to write macros effectively. This tutorial is reinforced by interesting and useful examples that solve common problems you're sure to have encountered. Writing Excel Macros with VBA, 2nd Edition is the book you need to delve into the basics of Excel VBA programming, enabling you to increase your power and productivity.

Excellent reference........2007-03-26

I program in VB & needed a reference to the Excel object model. This book is an outstanding resource!

Among the best books on Excel VBA.......2006-07-06

"Writing Excel Macros with VBA" is an excellent book on the use of VBA (Visual Basic for Applications) for Microsoft Excel. Steven Roman provides a significant amount of information in a relatively short volume.

While this book is accessible to Excel users of a variety of skill levels, it is best suited to numerically-inclined and experienced users of Excel. The book offers a good introduction to the VBA programming environment and the Excel object model.

Steven Roman has written the best book on Excel VBA that I have read to date.

Good Reference.......2005-06-07

This is a very specialized book with a very specialized core audience and this text does what it says it does -- teach you how to write Excel Macros using VBA. Nothing too exciting here folks, very dry reading that is a necessary reference if you need to have more control over Excel than the everyday user does.

I remember long ago when I needed to work on building some installers and I had never worked with Installshield before. There was one book on the market that was helpful in completing this task, and there is a very close correlation here as well. There simply is not enough of a market to provide a wide variety of different books to choose from when needing to learn how to write Excel macros. Any user would want a book that helps them complete their task at hand and this book gets my seal of approval in helping to do just that.

**** RECOMMENDED

Mr Roman's book is very good value. .......2005-05-16

Mr Roman is an extremely competent and clear writer. This book, whilst not as big as some, doesn't waste space with any padding, and boring repititious stuff you see in some texts.
Although there could have been a little more on interplay between Excel and the other Office objects, esp. Outlook, this book makes up for that with its clear, organised and logical presenatation.

I use it as a reference book, and seem to remember the content of it more clearly than I do with other comparable books! Why is this? Mr Roman has a tidy turn of phrase, doesn't wafffle, but his explanations seem to sit well in how my mind works. I hope this will be the same for you.

I recommend this book for those who may be beyond the beginner stage of learning VB(A). It also includes some handy utilities for users of Excel.

Mr Roman - well done. Look forward to your next (high level?) Excel VBA book.

Not a good primary reference.......2004-09-14

I was looking for a primary reference for the Excel object model. I have years of programming experience, some VB, and was looking for something to get me started programming Excel VBA. This book is not suitable as a primary reference. Much better are either Power Programming (Walkenbach) or Excel VBA (Bovey) which contain many useful tips and gotchas that helped me out of a few baffling situations. Roman's book seemed to focus on the few examples he developed, rather than be a resource for problems a beginning/intermediate Excel programmer was likely to encounter.

Customer Reviews:

A brilliant Read.......2007-05-22

This book is a fascinating, eye-opening account of a group of civil rights activists that have been mainly "invisible" in most accounts of the happenings in and around Atlanta from the mid-50s to the mid-60s. The story is interwoven with factual descriptions, media accounts and recollections of the actual women (and men). As a Spelman alumna (class of 1984), I am proud of these women and ashamed that I did not know more of the astounding part my sisters played in this "drama". This book is a MUST READ. For those who don't know: the fight is not over. You need only read this book for real inspiration and rejuvenation for the ongoing battle. Dr. Lefever, a masterful writer, has done a wonderful job of writing this; it's a real page-turner!

Praise When Praise Is Due.......2005-08-18

Undaunted by the Fight is a 21st century documentation and reflection on the U. S. Civil Rights Movement and the Spelman College women who played key roles in helping to make it happen. It pays tribute to some of the unsung Spelman (s)heroes of this Movement, while at the same time providing the reader with a generous overview of the significant events that took place across the country during this critical time. Detailed at times, the book gives the reader a sense of "being there" and getting to know, honor, and respect those involved in the Movement; and it does so in such a way as to not invade the personal lives of these individuals, as some books are known to do. It is a beautiful, scholarly presentation of an ugly time in U. S. history, with just the right amount of humor to keep the reader moving forward instead of getting stuck in anger or guilt about the details of what happened when the Movement was most prominent. The U. S. Civil Rights Movement, though at times appearing stagnant, is indeed an "ongoing" event that has influenced local, national, and global politics. This book makes those connections. It is inspiring and motivational, and it leaves the reader with the questions of, "Where--and how--do we go from here?". I praise Dr. Lefever for this book. It is a timely piece for the new millennium for those of us who wish to remain "undaunted by the fight".

Book Description

By the 1890s, white Americans were avid consumers of American Indian cultures. At heavily scripted Wild West shows, Chautauquas, civic pageants, expositions, and fairs, American Indians were most often cast as victims, noble remnants of a vanishing race, or docile candidates for complete assimilation. However, as Lucy Maddox demonstrates in Citizen Indians, some prominent Indian intellectuals of the era—including Gertrude Bonnin, Charles Eastman, and Arthur C. Parker—were able to adapt and reshape the forms of public performance as one means of entering the national conversation and as a core strategy in the pan-tribal reform efforts that paralleled other Progressive-era reform movements.

Maddox examines the work of American Indian intellectuals and reformers in the context of the Society of American Indians, which brought together educated, professional Indians in a period when the "Indian question" loomed large. These thinkers belonged to the first generation of middle-class American Indians more concerned with racial categories and civil rights than with the status of individual tribes. They confronted acute crises: the imposition of land allotments, the abrogation of the treaty process, the removal of Indian children to boarding schools, and the continuing denial of birthright citizenship to Indians that maintained their status as wards of the state. By adapting forms of public discourse and performance already familiar to white audiences, Maddox argues, American Indian reformers could more effectively pursue self-representation and political autonomy.

Book Description

Can a human being really spontaneously burst into flames? Just how deadly is the Bermuda Triangle? And what’s the real story behind all those alien abductions?

The answers to these and many other questions lie within the covers of The Skeptic’s Guide to the Paranormal. Guaranteed to liven up any dinner party, this delightful, highly readable book offers color photographs and scientific case-by-case explanations for twenty-seven phenomena that appear to defy known science, including ghosts and poltergeists, the predictions of Nostradamus, and yogic levitation, among many others.

Speaking directly to the reader, and always with respect for those who believe, Kelly gives us a bite-size, nonacademic approach to debunking hugely popular superstitions and mysteries. Did you know that you, too, can bend spoons and read minds? This book will show you how.

Customer Reviews:

Well done!.......2005-08-12

This is a wonderful book that sets the record straight. I remember when I was a kid, it was the latest thing to read about the Bermuda Triangle, or spoon-bending and so on. What a thrill it was, although now we grew up and we see the world through different spectacles. Lynne Kelly uses great insight to pick the most intriguing cases of paranormal claims. Her respect, humor and scientific logic do miracles (although I am sure she would question this last word). Some of these claims she deals with are just the product of our wrong attribution but most of them have remained a question mark in our minds. For example back in the seventies I was reading about numerology and trying to make it work for me, or then the horrible spontaneous human combustion - never expected to see an explanation for this one. Astrology, which always intrigued me, is approached and explained in a very logical and straight-forward way and Nessy is treated with charm. Whoever is interested in setting the record straight should definitely read this book. Highly recommended.

Sensible Explanations for the Very, Very Strange.......2005-03-16

It's a strange world out there, full of mysteries that no one has gotten a grip on. It is even stranger that some have taken grips on mysteries that are artificial, imaginary, or delusional. You can read the astrology column in today's paper, for instance; millions do, and of those millions, many feel it is instructive and that the stars and planets affect our lives. There are those who insist that they can bend spoons not as a magic trick but by using mental powers that physicists cannot yet measure. Psychic detectives claim they have used extrasensory powers to catch criminals. Into the Bermuda Triangle vanish untold numbers of ships and airplanes. The letters in your name, or the numbers in your birth date, reveal your personality and fate. Aliens are picking us up to do gastrointestinal tests and impregnations. People seem sincere in advancing such beliefs. They can't all be lying, can they? What's the rational way to examine such ideas? Lynne Kelly knows. In _The Skeptic's Guide to the Paranormal_ (Thunder's Mouth Press), she devotes one chapter to all of them, and many more. The aim of her book is that it "gives a rational explanation for some of the most widely known claims of the paranormal." Kelly takes tangible claims and examines any applicable tangible evidence. She knows that there are book-length refutations of most of the paranormal phenomena that people believe in, but the beauty of her book is that each is pithily examined, and although not all evidence pro and con is given, there is advice on how to look at the evidence that will make each case clear.

Skeptics have some sensible rules to go by, like extraordinary claims requiring extraordinary evidence, or for the acceptance of the simplest explanation that covers all the evidence. Kelly is a teacher of physics and mathematics who for thirty years has employed such tools on paranormal claims. "Not cynicism, but a healthy skepticism," is her motto. "Not disbelief, but a reluctance to believe without substance." In each chapter, Kelly takes one phenomenon and examines evidence pro and con. She repeatedly confronts the human eagerness to believe in fun and fanciful explanations; it is more delightful, for instance, to conceive of aliens mystically bending crops rather than a couple of guys doing it with ropes and planks and stomping. Desire for fanciful explanations does not, however, trump the need for good evidence. She has acted as a psychic, using cold readings and impressing the credulous with her psychic powers. She insightfully reports how easy it would be in cold readings to fool herself into thinking she was getting her hits from some psychic source, just as she explains that when she has used a dowsing rod, she has been astounded by how real is the feeling that the rod is actually being pulled down. She'd like for such an indicator to really mean something, just as she'd love to be around when aliens do drop in for a visit, or she would enjoy having veridical prognostications via dreams. It's sometimes tough to be a skeptic.

Other topics here include the Shroud of Turin, spontaneous human combustion, ESP, levitation, Bigfoot, reincarnation, and many more. Kelly has repeatedly confronted those who are eager to believe in paranormal explanations for such things, and she admits, "Some believers accuse skeptics of having nothing left but a dull, cold, scientific world." She shows, however, that rigorously trying to examine the way the world works by our best investigative method, that of science, is anything but dull, and that anyway, our world presents plenty of enchanting realms like music, sex, love, and imagination that call upon no explanations, scientific or paranormal, to enjoy in full. She has written an instructive and useful guide about some very strange matters that can eventually be explained without recourse to anything beyond physics and human nature.
