Diana, Memory of a Rose
Book is glossy, coffee table format, with nine chapters and over 135 pictures of Diana, some previously unpublished. Full color throughout, superbly designed limited edition. Every copy signed by author. Text contains insights from Susan Maxwelll Skinner, a former member of Diana's accredited press team, who worked with the Princess for eight years. This is an affectionate account of one reporter's experience of the "Diana years."
Every Day of My Life
This is the first book by a founding member of Little River Band: the first Australian band to achieve a gold album in the US. 'Every Day of My Life' tells the remarkable tale of how Beeb Birtles, David Briggs, Graeham Goble, George McArdle, Derek Pellicci and Glenn Shorrock conquered the world - and then lost their band. The book also documents how a young Dutch boy named Gerard Bertelkamp arrived in Adelaide, unable to speak English, and ended up in not one but two major bands: Zoot (with Darryl Cotton and Rick Springfield) and Little River Band (with Glenn Shorrock and later John Farnham). As the title suggests, Every Day of My Life is an intensely personal journey. Beeb Birtles might have lost his band but he discovered many other things along the way. LRB's hits include 'Reminiscing', 'Help Is On Its Way', 'Lonesome Loser', 'The Night Owls', 'It's a Long Way There', 'Cool Change', 'Happy Anniversary', 'Lady', 'Curiosity (Killed the Cat)', 'Witchery', and 'Every Day of My Life'. Due to a bizarre copyright case, Beeb Birtles can no longer make music as Little River Band. But he can tell their incredible story - and his own incredible story.
Diana
Compelling and compassionate insight - in both words and pictures - of the woman whose life touched millions worldwide.
Englishness
This book examines the conflicts, dilemmas and contradictions that marked Englishness as the nation changed from an imperial power to a postcolonial state. The chapters deal with travel writing, popular song, music hall and variety theatre, dances, elocution lessons, cricket and football, and national festivals, as well as literature and film. 'High' and 'popular' cultures are brought together in dialogue, and the diversity as well as the problematic nature of English identity is emphasised. The case studies are linked by their interests in different kinds of performances of being English, and by a particular focus upon the voice and the body as key sites for the struggles of modern England. The book is a lively contribution to current interdisciplinary debates about Englishness, national cultures and postcolonial identities. It is relevant to undergraduate students of literature, drama, film, politics and sociology, and will also appeal to a general readership.
The Descendants of James McCabe and Ann Pettigrew
James McCabe and Ann Pettigrew arrived in Pictou, Halifax Co., Nova Scotia around 1767. James was born in Ireland and died at West River sometime between 21 August and 17 November 1801. McCabe families are found in Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island and Maine, California, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Oregon and Rhode Island in the United States.
Identity and Agency in Cultural Worlds
This text addresses the central problem in anthropological theory of the late 1990s - the paradox that humans are both products of social discipline and creators of remarkable improvisation.
