Stern, Isaac, with Potok, Chaim
Isaac Stern; My First 79 Years
New York N.Y.: Alfred A. Knopf 1999. First Trade Edition stated. Presumed first printing. Hardcover. Very good/Very good. 317 pages. Bookplate signed by the author Isaac Stern on the half-title page. Book includes Acknowledgments Introduction Twenty-Eight Chapters and an Afterword. In this book Isaac Stern shares with us both his personal and his artistic experiences; the story of his rise to eminence; his feelings about music and the violin; his rich emotional life; his great friendships and collaborations with colleagues such as Leonard Bernstein and Pablo Casals; his background as an ardent supporter of Israel; and his ideas and beliefs about art life love and the world we live in. Isaac Stern July 21 1920 - September 22 2001 was an American violinist. Born in Poland Stern came to the US when he was 14 months old. Stern performed both nationally and internationally notably touring the Soviet Union and China and performing extensively in Israel a country to which he had close ties since shortly after its founding. Stern received extensive recognition for his work including winning the Presidential Medal of Freedom and six Grammy Awards and being named to the French Legion of Honour. The Isaac Stern Auditorium at Carnegie Hall bears his name due to his role in saving the venue from demolition in the 1960s. Stern toured the Soviet Union in 1951 the first American violinist to do so. In 1967 Stern stated his refusal to return to the USSR until the Soviet regime allowed artists to enter and leave the country freely. His only visit to Germany was in 1999 for a series of master classes but he never performed publicly in Germany. Derived from a Publishers Weekly article: As one might expect the more engaging elements in this autobiography occur when Stern world-renowned violinist or as he would have it "fiddler" and music education activist discusses playing--and not just his own. Stern seems most excited when discussing performances by others including Naoum Blinder Pierre Monteux and Leonard Bernstein. The virtuoso also details his childhood and formal training: Stern it seems had very little of either. Born and raised by middle-class Russian-Ukrainian immigrant parents in San Francisco Stern credits his interest in the violin to a childhood friend. Rather than bloat his talent or sense of destiny Stern is given to frank statements such as "It seems I may have been the first American violinist to do a tour of the major Soviet cities." Coauthor Potok's narrative touch is clear; instead of technical jargon classical pieces are described through setting and emotion. Alfred A. Knopf hardcover

Preliminary reports published were updated in latter volumes.

The act directed the Secretary of War Jefferson Davis to plan and direct Army topographical engineers to conduct surveys of four routes. The first was between the 47th and 49th parallels generally along the Lewis and Clark route to the Pacific. The Second route between the 37th and 39th parallels was promoted by Senator Thomas Hart Benton of Missouri. The Third route was along the 35th parallel. The Fourth route was promoted by Secretary Davis along the 32nd parallel that followed Emory's 1846-47 reconnaissance.<br /> <br /> The illustration "Awaiting the Return of Mr. Tinkham" was done to support part of the report narrative by Stevens starting on p. 127 of the report. Mr. Tinkham was one of several civilian members of the survey that fanned out along the general route to identify better terrain for a railroad line. They were generally accompanied by Native American guides the knew the terrain. Mr. Tinkham proceed without a guide and became disoriented for a number of days before finding his way back to the camp. <br /> <br /> John Mix Stanley 1814-1872 was an artist-explorer American painter of landscapes and of Native American portraits and tribal life. In 1842 he traveled to the West to paint Native Americans and spend the next ten years painting and exhibiting in eastern cities and the Smithsonian. During the Mexican War in 1846 he was a draftsman for the Corps of Engineers assigned to Colonel Kearney's expedition to California and Oregon Territory. He produced maps and illustrations for the Army. After the war he spent time in Hawaii painting the Royal family native life and landscapes. In 1853 Stanley was appointed the chief artist to Isaac Stevens survey expedition for a Pacific railroad route from St. Paul to Puget Sound the Northern Survey. During the survey he produced the stunning 70 illustrations and fold out panoramas in the Stevens report.
