Black Matt
American geography. Ediz. illustrata
ill., ril. "American Geography" è il racconto e la registrazione visiva di un lungo viaggio, durato sei anni e oltre 150.000 chilometri, del fotografo Matt Black attraverso le comunità povere e disagiate degli Stati Uniti. Il viaggio comincia nella regione natale di Black, la Central Valley della California, un luogo noto per i suoi miliardi di dollari di produzione agricola annua, così come per la miseria straziante di un terzo dei suoi residenti. Continua poi in altre aree di "povertà concentrata", una definizione con cui il censimento USA identifica i luoghi con tassi di indigenza superiori al 20%. Piuttosto che anomalie distanti e lontane, queste comunità sono invece vicine e comuni, più frequenti di quanto si possa pensare e separate tra loro solo da poche ore di viaggio. Così, nella sua lunga ricognizione, Matt Black attraversa l'intero paese tracciando la mappa di una nuova immagine dell'America.

Black Vernacular Photography
African American Family Life and Community Vernacular Photography Archive 1928-1960
1928. African American vernacular photograph archive 1928-1960 documents Black family life social networks and everyday leisure across the decades spanning late Jim Crow segregation through the early Civil Rights era in Georgia. The archive provides sustained visual evidence of African American domestic stability mobility and self-representation during a period marked by systemic racial exclusion and legal segregation in the United States. Scenes include couples embracing restaurant gatherings birthday celebrations children at play studio portraiture and leisure travel including boating presenting a continuous record of Black life lived beyond institutional narratives of marginalization. One photograph from 1958 depicting a Black man embracing an elderly white woman on a residential porch introduces a rare visual instance of interracial intimacy within a period defined by rigid racial boundaries while images of school-aged children including those labeled "School Days" situate the archive within the expanding but unequal educational landscape for African Americans prior to and following Brown v. Board of Education.<br /> <br /> Archive of 54 original vernacular photographs including silver gelatin and Kodacolor prints created between circa 1928 and 1960 with identified dates inscribed on twenty-four images including 1929 1930 1935 1939 1948 1950 1951 1953 and 1954. One photograph is captioned "Savannah Georgia in 1953" providing a geographic anchor within the segregated American South. The archive includes school portraits studio portraits informal domestic scenes outdoor images and urban settings. Several photographs bear inscriptions on the verso including "To Aunt Bea with love April 24 1959" indicating circulation within extended family networks. Notable images include a young Black man posed in a 1940s suit and fedora alongside U.S. Army khaki uniform elements during the World War II period a child on a tricycle with her father a mother with two children in a park a sleeping newborn and two girls posed before a sign reading "Real Leagues." Photograph sizes range from approximately 2 x 1.5 inches to 7 x 5 inches with most measuring around 4 x 2.5 inches. Taken together the archive offers a longitudinal visual record of African American life across three decades that saw the Great Migration World War II military service and the early Civil Rights Movement reshape Black social and political experience. The presence of military-associated imagery aligns with broader patterns of African American enlistment and postwar demands for civil rights while leisure scenes family gatherings and children's portraits document continuity of community formation under segregation. The inclusion of dated photographs enhances the archive's utility for reconstructing timelines of family and social history while inscriptions and regional references provide anchors for localized study. Light toning present in some images with occasional warping and minor edge cracking; most photographs remain sharp and legible. Overall very good. unknown

A clean, unmarked book with a tight binding. Slight edge wear and small tears to dust jacket. Full black cloth boards. 11 1/8"w x 8 3/4"h. 112 pages. " In the late 1970s an archaeological team was sent into a remote region of British Columbia to document the Nuxalk-Carrier Grease Trail--part of explorer Alexander Mackenzie's 18th-century crossing of North America. Mackenzie's journey was the first documented crossing of the North American continent, predating Lewis and Clark's expedition by eleven years. In the footsteps of Alexander Mackenzie tells the fascinating story of the archaeological field assistants who walked, traveled by horse-drawn wagon and lived among the Lhoosk'uz Dene--a people whose origins in the area go back 4,000 years" [Publisher]

Blackmore, R. D.
LORNA DOONE, A Romance of Exmoor.
Two volumes. pp. 516; 565 + Fifty-one wonderful photogravure plates from the photographs of Dr. Charles L. Mitchell and Francis Frith. Original full red cloth binding., brilliantly decorated in gold. Set against the turbulent historical backdrop of the 1680s, in England's lawless West Country, Lorna Doone is an action-packed tale of romance, revenge and family warfare. Blackmore's sweeping story of love and crime is one of fiction's most respected works. Three young people are caught in a taut emotional triangle - Carver Doone, murderous member of a feared family of aristocratic outlaws; John Ridd, a young farmer dedicated to avenging his father's death; and Lorna Doone, the dark-eyed beauty for whom both men would willingly die. At once independent and vulnerable, Lorna is the Doone "Princess", condemned by the family to marry Carver. But Lorna may not be quite what she seems. Richard Doddridge Blackmore (1825-1900) was born in Longworth, Berkshire, where his father John Blackmore was Curate-in-charge of the parish. Only a few months after his birth his mother died of typhus, his father moved back to his native West Country and young Richard was taken in charge by his aunt. In 1831 John Blackmore married again and Richard went to live with his father and stepmother in Devon. Richard went to school in Tiverton where he excelled in classical studies and later won a scholarship t o Oxford, where he took his degree in 1847. He made his first attempt at writing a novel during a university vacation. After leaving Oxford he entered the law, being called to the Bar in 1852. Ill-health, however, forced him to give up legal work as a full-time occupation and in 1853 he took the post of classics master at Wellesley House Grammar School, Hampton Road, Twickenham. Soon after accepti ng this post, Blackmore moved from London to Hampton Wick, where he lived until he moved to his new home in Teddington. In 1853 he married, and in 1854 published anonymously two volumes of poetry. In September 1857 his uncle died leaving his nephew a sum of money which enabled him to realise a long-held ambition - that of possessing a house in the country with a larger garden. Blackmore selected a plot of land at Teddington and built his new house (completed in 1860). He was to live there for the rest of his life. Gomer House, named after one of his favourite dogs, had extensive grounds. Within them Blackmore developed an 11 acre market garden, specialising in the cultivation of fruit. The grounds were surrounded by high walls. Although an expert in horticulture, he lacked the necessary bu siness sense and his market garden was not a very profitable enterprise. In the late 1860's Blackmore fought the coming of the railway to Teddington, winning claims against his property by the London and South West Railway Company, but being unable to prevent the erection of a station almost directly opposite his house. Some local residents in Teddington apparently regarded Blackmore as unsociable, if not misanthropic. Charles Deayton, a Teddington merchant is recorded as saying to a visitor: "He is not a social man, and seems wedded to his garden in the summer and his book writing in the wint er. That is all I know of him; except that he keeps the most vicious dogs to protect his fruit, and I would advise you to avoid the risk of visiting him." In fact, though of a retiring disposition, Blackmore did have a number of intimate friends whom he met regularly and many friendships with Americans as a result of his wide following in the United States. Blackmore died at Teddington in 1900 after a long and painful illness. He was buried at Teddington Cemetery. His wife had died in 1888. He had no children. **PRICE JUST REDUCED!

Blackmore, was one of the most famous English novelists of the second half of the nineteenth century. He won acclaim for vivid descriptions and personification of the countryside, sharing with Thomas Hardy a Western England background and a strong sense of regional setting in his works. Blackmore, often referred to as the 'Last Victorian', was a pioneer of the movement in fiction that continued with Robert Louis Stevenson and others. He has been described as 'proud, shy, reticent, strong-willed, sweet-tempered, and self-centred.' Apart from his novel Lorna Doone, which has enjoyed continuing popularity, his work has gone out of print. NW63
