Fathers Have Big Hands
Fathers Have Big Hands is the kind of book you'll want to read with your child on Father's Day- and for many days afterward! Inspired by a real father and son, Jonathan Charry has written a loving book about the way in which fathers show their love for their children: from opening pickle jars, to baking their favorite bread, listening to their stories and running through sunny fields together. The illustrations, too, tell the story of the endless love between fathers from multicultural backgrounds and their kids. A gift to treasure.

Sheading of Rushen (Kirk Malew with Castletown and Ballasalla), Kirk Arbory and Kirk Christ Rushen with the Calf of Man
Volume 6 comprises the three southerly parishes of Kirk Malew (including the town and former capital Castletown and the large village of Ballasalla), Kirk Arbory, and Kirk Christ Rushen (including the Calf of Man island). The material appears in alphabetical form with discussion of any problems of interpretation, and a listing of the various elements making up the names. This volume yields name-forms and elements not found in Manx literature or dictionaries. In addition, reinterpretation of some of the names now places them in the Early Christian period of Manx history (6th-7th centuries), thus adding them to the small list of names predating the Scandinavian period (9th-13th centuries).

It also helps to contribute towards comparative placename study in adjacent areas, particularly Ireland, southwest Scotland and northwest England.
WBCN and the American Revolution
How Boston radio station WBCN became the hub of the rock-and-roll, antiwar, psychedelic solar system. While San Francisco was celebrating a psychedelic Summer of Love in 1967, Boston stayed buttoned up and battened down. But that changed the following year, when a Harvard Law School graduate student named Ray Riepen founded a radio station that played music that young people, including the hundreds of thousands at Boston-area colleges, actually wanted to hear. WBCN-FM featured album cuts by such artists as the Mothers of Invention, Aretha Franklin, and Cream, played by announcers who felt free to express their opinions on subjects that ranged from recreational drugs to the war in Vietnam.
