Wonder Dogs: 101 German Shepherd Dog Films - $9.98One of the most intelligent, versatile, popular breeds of dog in the world has also been Hollywood's top dog for nearly ninety years. WONDER DOGS profiles feature films starring German Shepherd Dogs from 1921 to 2010. Including major Hollywood blockbusters as well as obscure independents, Jordan Taylor goes behind the scenes with dogs and films from around the world, bringing their stories to life in ways that will intrigue dog and film lovers alike. Taylor shines a light on evolving technical, aesthetic, and social sensibilities through the decades. Her eloquent narrative covers many aspects of the business: How the introduction of sound to film impacted animal performers: Training methodologies and treatment of canine actors: The use of the dogs as agents of propaganda during wartime. In an industry known for its cutthroat and political past, the facts are often hilarious, at times disturbing, and always fascinating. | Tranquil Vermont: The Pastels of Gaal Shepherd - $20.85Gaal Shepherd's pastel interpretations of Vermont's peaceful and verdant landscape are beautiful, luminous, and by her own admission and intent, just a bit mysterious. This new book contains twenty-six handsome full-color reproductions of Gaal's artwork, revealing Vermont in every season of the year. Woven among the reproductions is the artist's essay detailing why she finds the hills, fields, forests, and people of her adopted state so compelling, and why she wants to share her appreciation of them. |
The royal shepherd, an English opera. With alterations. As it is performed at the Theatre in Smock-Alley. - $9.95The 18th century was a wealth of knowledge, exploration and rapidly growing technology and expanding record-keeping made possible by advances in the printing press. In its determination to preserve the century of revolution, Gale initiated a revolution of its own: digitization of epic proportions to preserve these invaluable works in the largest archive of its kind. Now for the first time these high-quality digital copies of original 18th century manuscripts are available in print, making them highly accessible to libraries, undergraduate students, and independent scholars. The eighteenth-century fascination with Greek and Roman antiquity followed the systematic excavation of the ruins at Pompeii and Herculaneum in southern Italy; and after 1750 a neoclassical style dominated all artistic fields. The titles here trace developments in mostly English-language works on painting, sculpture, architecture, music, theater, and other disciplines. Instructional works on musical instruments, catalogs of art objects, comic operas, and more are also included. ++++ The below data was compiled from various identification fields in the bibliographic record of this title.

Mormon Passage is one result of that experience, a combination of diaries and field notes kept by the two during their mission and sociological analyses of their experiences. |
