A Book of Ages

By: Eric Hanson

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

AGE ISN'T JUST A NUMBER--IT'S A WAY OF KEEPING SCORE. THIS IS YOUR SCORECARD. The day we turn any age, we become contemporaries of everyone who has ever been that age, and it becomes our business to know that Bob Dylan wrote "Blowin' in the Wind" when he was twenty, Orson Welles cowrote, directed, and starred in Citizen Kane when he was twenty-five, Winston Churchill was fired from the Admiralty when he was forty and took up painting, and Jane Austen died, unmarried and mostly unknown, when she was forty-one. Knowing who did what when provides the yardstick by which to measure our own progress; it's comforting to learn that Grandma Moses didn't show her first painting until she was seventy-eight, and discouraging (but not surprising) to discover that Einstein was already smarter than you at age sixteen. A witty, ironic collection of moments from famous lives organized by year of age from infancy to death, A Book of Ages tells you who is doing what, who is on top of the world, who is waiting for his luck to change, who is saying unkind things about whom, who is planning his revenge, who is meeting for the first time, and who Elizabeth Taylor is currently divorcing. WHAT HAVE YOU BEEN UP TO? An Eccentric Miscellany of Achievements, Misdeeds, Crossed Paths, Bypaths, Inventions, Scandals, Child Prodigies, Late Masterpieces, Marriages and Breakups, Feuds, Dead Ends, Second Chances, Adventures and Misadventures, Novels Written and Battles Won and Lost, All Organized by Year of Age. From the Hardcover edition.

The History of Coffee in Guatemala

By: Regina Wagner,Cristóbal von Rothkirch,Eric Stull

After it emerged as a market commodity in the 18th century, coffee was easily adapted to cultivation in the highlands of Central America. Guatemala in particular has relied on coffee cultivation as a part of its economic identity: it has been a premier export crop for over 300 years. The importance of coffee to the country lies in the large labour investment in each stage of production. The book covers agricultural, social, and cultural aspects of coffee culture in Guatemala in old photographs, charts, tables and maps. Wagner's work shows how Guatemala has met the economic complexity to which this product is subject, and why coffee remains the solid foundation crop of the country today.

The Collected Letters of W. B. Yeats: Volume II: 1896-1900

By: W. B. Yeats

Described by Seamus Heaney as `one of the great publishing events of the decade', The Collected Letters of W. B. Yeats is redefining the territory of modern literary history. Covering a formative period in Yeats's political career, and the beginning of his theatrical involvement, Volume II (1896-1900) is indispensable to anyone interested in modern poetry, Irish drama, and cultural history. Letter by letter Yeat's private concerns, artistic quarrels and exhausting political life are revealed. Rich and readable notes provide a narrative of these years, explaining allusions, and setting the correspondence in its cultural and political contexts, as well as relating it to the emergence of Yeats's canon.

The Collected Letters of W. B. Yeats: Volume III: 1901-1904

By: W. B. Yeats

The first two volumes of Yeats's collected letters met with enormous critical acclaim. This third, like the others, presents the letters complete with characteristic misspellings and peculiar punctuation, and gives a full flavour of his idiosyncrasy and haste as a correspondent. The letters are in themselves fascinating and highly revealing of the man behind the poetry. They show both the political fervour and the poetic sensibility, and represent Yeats as friend, adversary, critic, and man passionately involved in the state of Ireland, culturally and politically. These are the years which saw the setting-up of the Abbey Theatre in Dublin, as the permanent home of the Irish National Theatre Company run by his friends the Fays. Annotation is particularly full and far-reaching, supplying a wealth of hitherto unresearched information about the background to the letters, and in itself adding very considerably to what is known of Yeats and his circle. There is a biographical register of the main figures who appear in the volume, and a full index.
