 Heart Full of Soul Keith Relf of the Yardbirds【電子書籍】[ David French ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞This is the first full-length biography of Keith Relf, frontman for the Yardbirds and one of the great tragic characters in rock history. Keith's moody vocals and harmonica helped to define the Yardbirds' sound on a string of innovative hit records in the 1960s that influenced garage rock, psychedelia, blues rock, hard rock and heavy metal. Numerous books have been written about the Yardbirds' famous guitarists--Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck and Jimmy Page--yet Keith has remained a mysterious and elusive figure since his death by electrocution at age 33.＜/p＞ ＜p＞A deeply private person, prone to depression and poor health, Keith was ill-suited to the life of a rock star. In the years following the Yardbirds' breakup, as the band's guitarists became household names playing blues-based rock, Keith insisted on pursuing new musical paths, always searching for something new and trying to extend the Yardbirds' spirit of curiosity and innovation. By the time of his death in 1976, Keith was nearly forgotten and struggling physically, emotionally and financially. More than forty years after his tragic death, this important artist's story has finally been written and his contributions celebrated as more than just a footnote to the careers of his better-known bandmates.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 2,652円 |

 The Man Who Ate Too Much The Life of James Beard【電子書籍】[ John Birdsall ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞**A Finalist for the 2022 James Beard Foundation Cookbook Award (Writing)＜/p＞ ＜p＞The definitive biography of America’s best-known and least-understood food personality, and the modern culinary landscape he shaped.**＜/p＞ ＜p＞In the first portrait of James Beard in twenty-five years, John Birdsall accomplishes what no prior telling of Beard’s life and work has done: He looks beyond the public image of the "Dean of American Cookery" to give voice to the gourmet’s complex, queer life and, in the process, illuminates the history of American food in the twentieth century. At a time when stuffy French restaurants and soulless Continental cuisine prevailed, Beard invented something strange and new: the notion of an American cuisine.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Informed by previously overlooked correspondence, years of archival research, and a close reading of everything Beard wrote, this majestic biography traces the emergence of personality in American food while reckoning with the outwardly gregarious Beard’s own need for love and connection, arguing that Beard turned an unapologetic pursuit of pleasure into a new model for food authors and experts.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Born in Portland, Oregon, in 1903, Beard would journey from the pristine Pacific Coast to New York’s Greenwich Village by way of gay undergrounds in London and Paris of the 1920s. The failed actor?turned?Manhattan canap? hawker?turned?author and cooking teacher was the jovial bachelor uncle presiding over America’s kitchens for nearly four decades. In the 1940s he hosted one of the first television cooking shows, and by flouting the rules of publishing would end up crafting some of the most expressive cookbooks of the twentieth century, with recipes and stories that laid the groundwork for how we cook and eat today.＜/p＞ ＜p＞In stirring, novelistic detail, ＜em＞The Man Who Ate Too Much＜/em＞ brings to life a towering figure, a man who still represents the best in eating and yet has never been fully understoodーuntil now. This is biography of the highest order, a book about the rise of America’s food written by the celebrated writer who fills in Beard’s life with the color and meaning earlier generations were afraid to examine.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 2,520円 |

At least he tried to remain thoughtful, while alternating images popped in and out of his mind's eye.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Perfect freckled cleavage framed in lace. Root beer-soaked fried mushrooms. Freckles. Mushrooms. Cleavage.＜/p＞ ＜p＞She was truly gorgeous. Not beauty contest, make-up and hairdo gorgeous.

A belly that swelled that slightest just enough to lead the eye down to a short, shapely triangle of orange-red hair peaking out between her legs.

Creamy smooth legs that would be heaven wrapped around your hips or sliding softly over cheeks as your nose and mouth nuzzled closer to their moistening zenith.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Jay rarely considered himself a poet, but Red brought out his inner sonneteer.

 A Most Remarkable Creature The Hidden Life of the World's Smartest Birds of Prey【電子書籍】[ Jonathan Meiburg ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞**“Utterly captivating and beautifully written, this book is a hugely entertaining and enlightening exploration of a bird so wickedly smart, curious, and social, it boggles the mind.”ーJennifer Ackerman, author of ＜em＞The Bird Way＜/em＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜em＞“＜em＞A fascinating, entertaining, and totally engrossing story＜/em＞.＜/em＞”ーDavid Sibley, author of ＜em＞What It's Like to Be a Bird＜/em＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞An enthralling account of a modern voyage of discovery as we meet the clever, social birds of prey called caracaras, which puzzled Darwin, fascinate modern-day falconers, and carry secrets of our planet's deep past in their family history.＜/p＞ ＜p＞“As curious, wide-ranging, gregarious, and intelligent as its subject.”ーCharles C. Mann, author of ＜em＞1491＜/em＞**＜/p＞ ＜p＞In 1833, Charles Darwin was astonished by an animal he met in the Falkland Islands: handsome, social, and oddly crow-like falcons that were "tame and inquisitive . . . quarrelsome and passionate," and so insatiably curious that they stole hats, compasses, and other valuables from the crew of the ＜em＞Beagle＜/em＞. Darwin wondered why these birds were confined to remote islands at the tip of South America, sensing a larger story, but he set this mystery aside and never returned to it.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Almost two hundred years later, Jonathan Meiburg takes up this chase. He takes us through South America, from the fog-bound coasts of Tierra del Fuego to the tropical forests of Guyana, in search of these birds: striated caracaras, which still exist, though they're very rare. He reveals the wild, fascinating story of their history, origins, and possible futures. And along the way, he draws us into the life and work of William Henry Hudson, the Victorian writer and naturalist who championed caracaras as an unsung wonder of the natural world, and to falconry parks in the English countryside, where captive caracaras perform incredible feats of memory and problem-solving. ＜em＞A Most Remarkable Creature＜/em＞ is a hybrid of science writing, travelogue, and biography, as generous and accessible as it is sophisticated, and absolutely riveting.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 2,022円 |

 The Mocking-Bird【電子書籍】[ Ambrose Bierce ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞In Ambrose Bierce's "The Mocking-Bird," the author artfully weaves a narrative that is rich with imagery and biting social commentary. Set against the backdrop of rural America, the tale showcases the complexities of human emotions and the subtleties of moral dilemmas through the lens of a seemingly simple story. Bierce's literary style, characterized by his sardonic wit and keen observations, allows for a deep exploration of themes such as illusion versus reality and the nature of truth, encapsulating a pivotal moment in American literature that reflects broader societal concerns of his time. Ambrose Bierce, an influential figure in American literature, is best known for his acerbic prose, much of which stems from his experiences as a Civil War soldier and his disappointment with societal conventions. His encounters with the absurdities of life and death motivated him to probe the darker aspects of human nature and societal hypocrisy, creating a unique voice that resonates throughout "The Mocking-Bird". Bierce's distinctive perspective is shaped by both his literary influences and personal disillusionments, informing his vivid storytelling. This compelling work is an essential read for those interested in the intricacies of human relationships and the often opaque boundary between truth and deception. Bierce's articulate prose invites readers to contemplate their own moral convictions while engaging them in a rich tapestry of narrative that remains relevant today. "The Mocking-Bird" is not only a significant literary endeavor but also a profound reflection on the human condition.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 150円 |

 The Captain's Prize【電子書籍】[ Tanya Bird ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞＜strong＞Love is for the weak of mind.＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞Astra is queen of the Companion world. She has been at the king’s side for ten years, but his interest is waning. If she can just hold on a little longer, she will take her rightful place as mentor and never share a man’s bed again. But a single game of cards threatens to bring her future to ruins. The king’s wager is a brutal reminder that she is replaceable, disposableーa prize to be won. Now she must find a way to survive outside the castle until she can find a way back inside its walls.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Dion is captain of the Galen army, a soldier, a humanitarianーand possibly a traitor. He does not believe in people as property, so the concept of a Companion is confronting. Mistress or slave? He cannot decide. The king’s Companion seems content enough with her eternal smile and ability to command a room with just a tilt of her head and flash of blue eyes, but he sees past the painted face and rehearsed laughter. She is broken. She is fire. And a game of cards later, she is entirely his problem.＜/p＞ ＜p＞This is book five in The Companion series.

 The Little White Bird: or Adventures In Kensington Gardens (Annotated)【電子書籍】[ J.M. Barrie ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞The Little White Bird is a British book by J. M. Barrie, ranging in tone from fantasy and whimsy to social comedy with dark, aggressive undertones. It was published in November 1902 by Hodder & Stoughton in the UK and Scribner's in the US, although the latter had released it serially in the monthly Scribner's Magazine from August to November. The book attained prominence and longevity thanks to several chapters written in a softer tone than the rest of the book, which introduced the character and mythology of Peter Pan. In 1906 those chapters were published separately as a children's book, Peter Pan in Kensington Gardens. The Peter Pan story began as one chapter and grew to an "elaborate book-within-a-book" of more than one hundred pages during the four years Barrie worked on The Little White Bird.＜br /＞ This edition has been formatted for your reader, with an active table of contents. It has also been annotated, with additional information about the book and its author, including an overview, plot introduction, plot summary, major themes, literary significance, information about Peter Pan in Kensington Gardens, biographical and bibliographical information.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 496円 |
 The Fire Bird Sign【電子書籍】[ Ahmed Khalil ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞Five months ago, the world ended. A comet called the Fire Bird burned the sky, and its silent, sweeping tail erased a century of technology in a single flash. Now, under a sunless, frozen sky, humanity starves in the dark, clinging to stories of what was. But from the ashes of the old world, two saviors offer a new one. In the East, ancient prophecies ignite as a reluctant scholar is hailed as the Mahdi, a divine guide for a desperate pilgrimage of the faithful. From a hidden sanctuary, a charismatic technocrat known as the Dajjal emerges, offering a paradise of warmth and food to anyone who will accept his absolute authority. As a lone scientist who predicted the fall, a theologian whose academic faith is shattered by literal prophecy, and a soldier disgusted by worldly tyrants are caught between the black banners of a holy army and the gleaming cities of a false god, they must answer the ultimate question: in a world where miracles are real, how do you tell a savior from the Great Deceiver before the final judgment falls upon all of humanity?＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 965円 |
