When a generation of young men styled themselves in the image of Budgie (the lovable rogue of the eponymous TV series), Rod Stewart (the lovable rogue rock star), and the glam icons Marc Bolan and David Bowie.

 Aspen Odyssey: A Long Strange Trip... A memoir of life in Aspen in the seventies and eighties and how a quaint little utopia, a sanctuary for like-minded kids seeking refuge from the insanity that plagued the nation in the late sixties, 【電子書籍】 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞Seeking to escape the insanity that plagued the nation in the late sixties, Spencer F. Schiffer and his young wife fled New York as soon as he graduated law school in 1971 to spend a winter ski-bumming in Aspen while trying to figure out what to do with their lives. By what he describes as simple twists of fate, he ended up practicing law in Aspen with clients ranging from drug smugglers to Donald Trump. Among them was Aspen’s largest landowner in 1981, Hans Cantrup. When Cantrup was forced into bankruptcy in 1983, it set off an unlikely chain of events that were the catalyst for dramatic changes, not only to Aspen’s complexion, but to its very core, its heart and soul.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Cantrup’s properties were purchased out of bankruptcy by the owner of a Texas savings and loan using the bank’s funds, lost the properties in foreclosure, and ended up in prison. Enter Donald Trump, who made a deal with the foreclosing bank to purchase a prime parcel at the base of Aspen Mountain to build a hotel, contingent on the bank getting title at the end of the foreclosure process, but the bank never got title. At the very last hour for redemption of the properties under Colorado law, an unknown developer from D.C., Mohamed Hadid, wired over forty-two-million dollars to the Public Trustee and redeemed all the properties through a lien he purchased from a bank owned by Adnan Khashoggi, the notorious arms dealer of Iran-Contra fame. Adding intrigue, the source of Hadid’s funds was the SAAR Foundation, a charitable organization later investigated for money laundering and funding terrorist organizations, including Al-Qaeda, and was dissolved just prior to 9/11. Ironically, Hadid lost the properties to members of the Saudi royal family, who then became Aspen’s largest landowners.＜/p＞ ＜p＞The story is a page-turner, filled with ironies and fascinating anecdotes about Aspen in the seventies and eighties, including the unsolved car bomb murder of notorious local cocaine smuggler Steven Grabow in 1986.＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜strong＞About the Author:＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞Spencer F. Schiffer practiced law in Aspen and the Roaring Fork Valley from 1971 until retiring in 2016. He served as Chairman of the City of Aspen Planning and Zoning Commission from 1973 to 1975 and vice president of the Aspen School Board from 1990 to 1995. He earned his undergraduate degree from the Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania and his law degree from St. John’s University. He is the proud father of two daughters and two grandchildren, and now lives in Carbondale, Colorado with his wife and dog. He spends most of his time playing golf, riding his bike, skiing, and writing.＜/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。 | 2,521円 |

 In My Liverpool Home - Growing Up in the Seventies and Eighties【電子書籍】[ Tom Garnett ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞This book is a collection of memories from a proud scouser, conceived, born and raised in the area of Liverpool, in the United Kingdom, in a place called Edge Hill.＜/p＞ ＜p＞If you want to know what life was like back in the Seventies and Eighties, then park your bottom on my 'Steerie' (you'll find the instructions on how to make one in this book), a Go-Kart in case you're wondering, with room for two. So let's take a bumpy and nostalgic trip back in time. You'll proper 'luv' this book!＜/p＞ ＜p＞We'll visit places close to my heart, and listen to music on the way. Us Scousers love music, we're a creative lot and music is in our DNA, but don't worry about a Playlist, I've got that covered. I've inserted many 'fab' songs into the book, I call them 'tracks,' but a word of caution, I've also added a few guilty pleasures and of course, there's many references to the Beatles. My first haircut was at the famous Penny Lane Barbers.＜/p＞ ＜p＞You can take the ropes but do push with your feet when turning a corner, and we can chat about the many imaginative games us Scouse Kids played at home, in the street and beyond. Sometimes miles away from home!＜/p＞ ＜p＞We had the freedom to explore the area, the wasteland, the 'bombies' and for hours at a time and without any adults wondering what we were up to? We didn't have mobiles, we 'yodelled', that's how we communicated across the rooftops to find out where the gang was hanging out. We had meeting up places but we wouldn't go home until the streetlights came on. Bruised legs after jumping onto discarded trampolines, the occasional black eye, battle scars after a brick fight and the odd broken bone. But it was fun!＜/p＞ ＜p＞I hope you enjoy this book my trusted co-pilot but don't you think todays kids are crap at climbing, they don't know how to walk along an entry wall, or throw a ball, in fact most can't juggle a ball with their feet, or knock a conker out a tree, or ride a bike with confidence on its back wheel. Yeah, that last talent was a proper fib, 'balaclava' wearing kids often hurtle past me in the middle of the road, and in my day the 'Plod' would have arrested them! Makes me so mad that!＜/p＞ ＜p＞But I'm an old git now. Kids today can teach us oldies a thing or two when it comes to gadgets, but kids have lost the ability to play out, and to think of games using their imagination. Today's kids rely upon social media, influences, whatever that means, and some developer's 'image' of the world, a realistic world but a virtual world and that's so sad and lazy! Would today's kids know how to make this steerie, they would ask Chatgp for instructions I guess, and expect some AI drone to build it!＜/p＞ ＜p＞Can we talk about my family's struggles, how we survived on jam butties, how we wiped our bottoms with last nights Echo in the outside lav, how we shared the bathwater, how we partied and celebrated things? Too late, its all in the book but you know something, Edge Hill is a 'tough' area for a kid to embark on their life's path, but coming from humble beginnings, when Dad was unemployed, a time full of social, political and cultural changes, it made you stronger. My childhood encouraged drive and determination and it was 'proper' character building.＜/p＞ ＜p＞And before we roll down the hill of my life, one last thing. We never had much but I wouldn't change a single thing. So buckle up, I hope you enjoy the ride, and this book.＜/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。 | 800円 |

 Son of a Preacher Man: Growing up in the Seventies and Eighties【電子書籍】[ Rodney Jetton ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞Sin will take you farther than you want to go, keep you longer than you want to stay, and cost you more than you want to pay. Rodney Jetton grew up in the Seventies and Eighties as the son of a Southern Baptist preacher. Being a pastor’s son can be challenging, and his autobiography does a great job of providing us with a candid and sometimes humorous look at what goes on after the Sunday sermon. In this heartwarming narrative, you will get to know the extended Jetton family and share in both the good times and hard times. While this book was written for his children, and is full of touching stories, educational illustrations and commonsense advice it will provide the reader with a unique glimpse into the consequences of good and bad choices. The first few chapters introduce the family members and are filled with childhood memories of Rodney’s years growing up, and then he takes us through his high school and college years. Rodney shares intimate details about his failure to follow his parent’s teachings and God’s commandments, all while showing how God forgave a prodigal son. Rodney’s testimony of God’s amazing grace during the first 20 years of his life will provide comfort and guidance to today’s parents trying to raise teenagers in a Christian home, and teenagers will benefit from these frank and easy to read stories on the temptations they need to overcome in today’s fast paced world.＜/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。 | 660円 |

 Lucking Out My Life Getting Down and Semi-Dirty in the Seventies【電子書籍】[ James Wolcott ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞＜strong＞"How lucky I was, arriving in New York just as everything was about to go to hell.”＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞That would be in the autumn of 1972, when a very young and green James Wolcott arrived from Maryland, full of literary dreams, equipped with a letter of introduction from Norman Mailer, and having no idea what was about to hit him. Landing at a time of accelerating municipal squalor and, paradoxically, gathering cultural energy in all spheres as “Downtown” became a category of art and life unto itself, he embarked upon his sentimental education, seventies New York style.＜/p＞ ＜p＞This portrait of a critic as a young man is also a rollicking, acutely observant portrait of a legendary time and place. Wolcott was taken up by fabled film critic Pauline Kael as one of her “Paulettes” and witnessed the immensely vital film culture of the period. He became an early observer-participant in the nascent punk scene at CBGB, mixing with Patti Smith, Lester Bangs, and Tom Verlaine. As a ＜em＞Village Voice＜/em＞ writer he got an eyeful of the literary scene when such giants as Mailer, Gore Vidal, and George Plimpton strode the earth, and writing really mattered.＜/p＞ ＜p＞A beguiling mixture of ＜em＞Kafka Was the Rage＜/em＞ and ＜em＞Please Kill Me＜/em＞, this memoir is a sharp-eyed rendering, at once intimate and shrewdly distanced, of a fabled milieu captured just before it slips into myth. Mixing grit and glitter in just the right proportions, suffused with affection for the talented and sometimes half-crazed denizens of the scene, it will make readers long for a time when you really could get mugged around here.＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜strong＞BONUS MATERIAL:＜/strong＞ This ebook includes an excerpt from James Wolcott's ＜em＞Critical Mass＜/em＞.＜/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。 | 1,986円 |

 My Last Eight Thousand Days An American Male in His Seventies【電子書籍】[ Lee Gutkind ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞As founding editor of ＜em＞Creative Nonfiction＜/em＞ and architect of the genre, Lee Gutkind played a crucial role in establishing literary, narrative nonfiction in the marketplace and in the academy. A longstanding advocate of New Journalism, he has reported on a wide range of issuesーrobots and artificial intelligence, mental illness, organ transplants, veterinarians and animals, baseball, motorcycle enthusiastsーand explored them all with his unique voice and approach.＜/p＞ ＜p＞In ＜em＞My Last Eight Thousand Days＜/em＞, Gutkind turns his notepad and tape recorder inward, using his skills as an immersion journalist to perform a deep dive on himself. Here, he offers a memoir of his life as a journalist, editor, husband, father, and Pittsburgh native, not only recounting his many triumphs, but also exposing his missteps and challenges. The overarching concern that frames these brave, often confessional stories, is his obsession and fascination with aging: how aging provoked anxieties and unearthed long-rooted tensions, and how he came to accept, even enjoy, his mental and physical decline. Gutkind documents the realities of aging with the characteristically blunt, melancholic wit and authenticity that drive the quiet force of all his work.＜/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。 | 3,730円 |

At night, lights glow from within, smoke curls from its chimneys, and in the forgiving murk of the gloaming, it looks magical. In daylight, its mouldering plasterwork and failing plumbing present a less romantic reality.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Dr Ava Dickens has come to Dorcha to visit her godson, Andrew ? a young man whose parents' sudden death has taken him from a quiet life in academia to owning Loch Dorcha. He and his very new wife are convinced the only way to make the estate work is to run the Hall as a hotel. But Ava is a rigorous scientist, her specialty animal behaviour, and she is by no means certain that the evidence is indicative of a successful outcome.＜/p＞ ＜p＞When one of the hotel guests is found dead in his bed, having gulped down poisonous insect repellant rather than the whisky sitting next to it, Ava's knowledge of the female ＜em＞Culicoides impunctatus＜/em＞ ? aka the Highland midge ? leads her to doubt that it was an accident.
