Bob Marley was a reggae superstar, a musical prophet who brought the sound of the Third World to the entire globe. Before the Legend: The Rise of Bob Marley goes beyond the myth of Marley to bring you the private side of a man few people ever really knew. Drawing from original interviews with the people closest to Marleyincluding his widow, Rita, his mother, Cedella, his bandmate and childhood friend, Bunny Wailer, his producer Chris Blackwell, and many others—Legend paints an entirely fresh picture of one of the most enduring musical artists of our times. This is a portrait of an artist as a young man, from his birth in the tiny town of Nine Miles in the hills of Jamaica, to the making of his debut international record, "Catch a Fire." We see Marley on the tough streets of Trench Town before he found stardom, struggling to find his way in music, in love and in life, and we take the wild ride with him to worldwide acceptance and adoration. From the acclaimed journalist, Christopher John Farely, the author of the bestselling AALIYAH and the reporter who broke the story on Dave Chappelle's retreat to South Africa, Legend is bursting with fresh insights into Marley and Jamaica, and is the definitive story of Marley's early days.Show book

Loretta Lynn is a living legend. From walking around barefoot in clothing repurposed from flour sacks in rural Kentucky to becoming an icon with more awards than any other woman in country music, many may wonder just how Loretta Lynn paved this path for herself. While hard work, natural talent, and having certain people in her life surely contributed to her success, her story is so unique it seems as if it was written by fate. A mother of six and now a grandmother to dozens, Lynn never lost sight of her values or what drove her. She had a calling to relay what was real and a desire to create a secure life for her family. She believes in horoscopes and is proudly an Aries; with her ambition and gifts, she could not be stopped. While Lynn is hesitant to call herself a feminist, her bravery and perseverance opened doors for many more women in country music. She also challenged stereotypes associated with the genre through living her beliefs about tolerance, honesty, and fairness. This biography will explore the meaning and process behind some of her music and how the people and circumstances that shaped her led to her extensive list of awards and accolades. It will also seek to provide insight into how her world view, natural gifts, and personality traits drove her successes.Show book
Ukiyo-e (‘pictures of the floating world’) is a branch of Japanese art which originated during the period of prosperity in Edo (1615-1868). Characteristic of this period, the prints are the collective work of an artist, an engraver, and a printer. Created on account of their low cost thanks to the progression of the technique, they represent daily life, women, actors of kabuki theatre, or even sumo wrestlers. Landscape would also later establish itself as a favourite subject. Moronobu, the founder, Shunsho, Utamaro, Hokusai, and even Hiroshige are the most widely-celebrated artists of the movement. In 1868, Japan opened up to the West. The masterful technique, the delicacy of the works, and their graphic precision immediately seduced the West and influenced greats such as the Impressionists, Van Gogh, and Klimt. This is known as the period of ‘Japonisme’. Through a thematic analysis, Woldemar von Seidlitz and Dora Amsden implicitly underline the immense influence which this movement had on the entire artistic scene of the West. These magnificent prints represent the evolution of the feminine ideal, the place of the Gods, and the importance accorded to landscape, and are also an invaluable witness to a society now long gone.Show book
