Collecting Rocks, Gems and Minerals

Identification, Values and Lapidary Uses

By: Patti Polk

Unlike the dense and highly technical academic tomes that are text-heavy, poorly organized and intimidating, this colorful and easy-to-use reference guide dedicated to collecting rocks, gems and minerals is ideal for readers who want to expand their understanding without getting lost in a labyrinth of science. Beautifully illustrated with 700 color photographs providing wonderful detail and smartly organized to take the hassle out identification, you will enjoy the simplicity of the guide and the enthusiasm and knowledge of author Patti Polk, one of the top agate collectors in the world and a self-proclaimed "rockhound." You will also enjoy two areas that our competitors don't bother with. First it includes values, and second, it covers an introduction to lapidary, which is the cutting and polishing of rocks and gemstones for jewelry or display.

Michigan Beer: A Heady History

By: Patti F. Smith

Michigan's beer history is as diverse as the breweries themselves, and the stories behind them are as fascinating as their tasty concoctions. A few enterprising women found themselves at the forefront of early brewing in the state, and several early Detroit brewers also served as mayor. Pfeiffer's mascot was designed by Walt Disney Studios. Jackson's Eberle Brewing Company took its fight against local prohibition all the way to the Supreme Court, and the Silver Foam trademark embroiled disputants in a different legal fight. Renowned modern craft brewers grew from humble beginnings, often staving off financial disaster, to establish themselves as local, or even national, juggernauts. Grab your favorite brew and join author Patti F. Smith for a look at Michigan's distant brewing past and its recent triumphs.

Touring Literary Mississippi

Touring Literary Mississippi

By: Patti Carr Black,Marion Garrard Barnwell

By taking the literary traveler on seven preplanned tours—through the Delta, along Highway 61, to the heart of Faulkner’s Yoknapatawpha country, to sites near Interstate 55 and the Natchez Trace, to the piney woods of East and South Mississippi, and along the sun-struck Gulf Coast—this book captures the phenomenal abundance and diversity of Mississippi literature. More than a guidebook, this book includes capsule biographies and well over a hundred photographs of writers, their residences, and their literary environments. It also provides maps and gives explicit directions to writers’ homes and other literary sites. The sheer number of writers discovered, recovered, and claimed by Mississippi will astonish travelers both from within and from without the state. Included are not only such major figures in the pantheon of American literature as William Faulkner, Eudora Welty, Tennessee Williams, and Richard Wright but also the less well-known. Every nook and cranny of the state claims a piece of Mississippi’s literary heritage. Literature pervades Yazoo City, Jackson, Greenville, Oxford, Natchez, the Gulf Coast, and the Delta Blues country. Willie Morris, Richard Ford, and Beverly Lowry have declared that a famous writer’s presence in their hometowns convinced them that they too could be writers. As the locations bring to life the connection of ordinary rituals with the stuff of fiction, poetry, and memoir, these hands-on tours make evident the special cross-pollination of writer and community in Mississippi.

Downtown Ann Arbor

By: Patti Smith

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

Downtown Ann Arbor

By: Patti Smith

In 1824, John Allen and Elisha Rumsey established the first homestead in what is now downtown Ann Arbor. The story goes that the community got its name when the two founders wives, both named Ann, were seen lounging in a grove of trees. In reality, Ann Allen and Mary Ann Rumsey were never in town at the same time, but how it actually was named is unimportant when considering what Ann Arbor grew into. Early settlers gave the town schools, an expansive courthouse, a beautiful post office, and streetcar lines that spanned downtown. They built this town, and their legacy is present in every walk up Huron Street, drive down to William and Main Streets, or bike ride over to Kerrytown.

Art in Mississippi, 1720-1980

By: Patti Carr Black

In Art in Mississippi Patti Carr Black focuses on several hundred significant artists and showcases in full color the work of more than two hundred. Nationally acclaimed native Mississippians are hereGeorge Ohr, Walter Anderson, Marie Hull, Theora Hamblett, William Dunlap, Sam Gilliam, William Hollingsworth, Jr., Karl Wolfe, Mildred Nungester Wolfe, John McCrady, Ed McGowin, James Seawright, and many others. Prominent artists who lived or worked in the state for a significant period of time are included as well - John James Audubon, Louis Comfort Tiffany, George Caleb Bingham, William Aiken Walker, and more. Black explores how art reflects the land and how modes of living and values dictated by Mississippi's changing topography created a variety of art forms. She demonstrates the influence of Mississippi's diverse cultures upon the art and shows how it has responded in many forms - painting, architecture, sculpture, fine crafts - to the changing aesthetics of national art movements.

Coach Tommy Thompson and the Boys of Sequoyah

By: Patti Dickinson

When eleven-year-old Tommy Thompson arrived at a government-run Indian boarding school in 1915, it seemed a last resort for the youngster. Instead, it turned out to be the first step toward a life dedicated to helping others. Thompson went on to become a star athlete and football coach—a Cherokee legend whose story is remembered by many and is now finally told for a wider audience. Following gridiron fame at Northeastern State College, Thompson returned to Sequoyah Vocational School in 1947 as Boys’ Coach and Advisor. More than a thousand boys attended the boarding school during the eleven years he coached there. Writing for readers old and young, Patti Dickinson tells the inspiring story of how this one man made a difference in the lives of a generation of Indian youth. Through football, Thompson taught his boys the skills and values they would need to succeed in life, and twice led his team to the state finals. Dickinson describes the success of that program, including one epic, rain-soaked championship game. She paints compelling portraits of Thompson’s boys—the men whose firsthand stories and reminiscences form the basis of the narrative—and re-creates daily life at the school. To his boys, Thompson was Ah-sky-uh, “the man,” a Cherokee term of respect. Half a century after his death, Sequoyah High School still reveres his memory. This book secures his place in history as it opens a new window on the boarding school experience.

Vanishing Ann Arbor

By: Patti F. Smith,Britain Woodman

Ann Arbor has seen many cherished landmarks and institutions come and go - some fondly remembered and others lost to time. When the city was little more than a village in the wilderness, its first school stood on the now busy corner of Main and Ann. Stores like Bach & Abel's and Dean & Co. served local needs as the village grew into a small town. As the town became a thriving city, Drake's and Maude's fed generations of hungry diners, and Fiegel's clothed father and son alike. Residents passed their time seeing movies at the Majestic or watching parades go down Main Street. Join authors Patti F. Smith and Britain Woodman on a tour of the city's past.

Patti Smith: Before Easter After

By: Patti Smith

A new trade publication of Before Easter After, originally published in a limited edition at $1,000. Hundreds of rarely seen images by legendary photographer Lynn Goldsmith offer an intimate portrait of rock ’n’ roll icon Patti Smith during a transformative moment in her career. Images of Smith performing on stage combine with candid behind-the-scenes photographs and striking studio shoots to create a deeply personal look at the singer during her rise to fame. The photographs include Smith’s life-changing accident while on tour in 1977 and the aftermath, as well as closeup, empathetic portraits that reveal Smith’s self-assurance, her defiance of cultural norms, and her effortless poise. This poignant visual narrative is punctuated throughout by Smith’s original poetry and song lyrics. This book is both a glimpse into a fabled time in music history, documenting a young artist creating what turned out to be a revolutionary work, as well as a celebration of an enduring partnership between two close friends who continue to be creative collaborators to this day.

Just Kids

By: Patti Smith

Det var sommaren då Coltrane dog, kärlekens och kravallernas sommar, då ett slumpartat möte i Brooklyn förde in två unga människor på en väg som skulle leda till något stort. Patti Smith skulle komma att utvecklas som poet och artist och Robert Mapplethorpe skulle med sin mycket provocerande stil komma att inrikta sig på fotografi. Förenande i oskuld och entusiasm genomkorsade de storstaden tillsammans, från Coney Island till Forty-second Street, och så småningom hamnade de vid det ryktbara runda bordet på Max ́s Kansas City där gruppen kring Andy Warhol höll hov. 1969 installerade de sig på Hotel Chelsea och blev snart en del av ett brödraskap med både kända och okända – den tidens inflytelserika artister och den färgstarka skara som omgav dem. Det var en period då poesins, rockens, konstens och sexualpolitikens världar kolliderade och exploderade. Och det var i denna miljö som svor på att de alltid skulle finnas där för varandra. Hängivna sin konst och uppfyllda av ömsesidiga drömmar och drivkrafter skulle de sporra och ta hand om varandra under de magra åren. Just Kids börjar som en kärlekshistoria och slutar som en sorgesång. Berättelsen är en hyllning till staden New York under slutet av sextiotalet och under sjuttiotalet, den är en hyllning till dess rika och fattiga, dess skurkar och bråkmakare. Som en sann saga är den en bild av två unga konstnärers väg till berömmelse.

M Train

By: Patti Smith

M Train börjar och slutar på ett café i New York som har blivit som ett andra hem för Patti Smith. Vid sitt stammisbord i hörnet dricker hon sitt kaffe, gör små anteckningar på servetter, läser böcker och reflekterar över minnen och drömmar, om det som gått förlorat. Med en mild melankoli söker hon tröst i poesin och reser över världen i de stora författarnas fotspår. Hon bjuder också på unika scener från sitt tidigare liv i Detroit med maken Fred Sonic Smith, små stunder av ren lycka och villkorslös kärlek. Det här är en bok för alla som älskar att tillbringa en eftermiddag på ett café, djupt försjunken i bok. M Train är en personlig och poetisk berättelse om livet, konsten och kärleken.
