Ideas about images as evidence.......2003-05-07
Burke discusses using images as historical resources and evidence, focusing on both the positive insights that might be garnered from imagery as well as the potential problems. One such historiographical danger is that the historian might view images from within their present context and not with the same significance or contextual milieu that the original historical actors might have attributed to them. This point, and others throughout the text, are elementary to many historians; others could use a friendly reminder of presentist tendencies. While there is nothing revolutionary to modern historians in Burke's text, it is a pleasant reminder of some of the pitfalls in constructing historical narrative based on visual evidence.

Customer Reviews:
great stuff!.......2006-08-29
I hadn't read "comic books" or graphic novels or whatever they are called now since I was a kid. Superheros don't really do anything for me, and the few graphic treatments of literature I'd read seemed forced.
But then a friend recommended this slim volume, and I bought it here on Amazon.
I was very surprised - the expressive b&w art and the very original story are seamlessly complementary, and I was glued to it all the way through. It's a slightly surreal - but also, at the same time, very realistic - story, and while I don't want to give anything away, if you're a fan of LOST or unexplained natural phenomena or things like that I think you'll get a kick out of it.
I am anxiously awaiting the next issue!
Book Description
A colorful album with photos and stories that transport readers back to that innocent (and sometimes not so innocent!) time when Saturday night meant a hot date in Dad's De Soto under the big outdoor screen.
Customer Reviews:
An excellent follow up.......2000-10-10
If you are interested in nostalga and/or drive in theatres, this is an excellent book. You may remember that Don and Susan Sanders came out with an excellent coffee table book entitled: "The American Drive-in Theatre." The original book was packed with previously lost photographs and memories of the drive in theatre.
Don and Susans latest work, "Drive in Memories : Popcorn and Romance Under the Stars," while physically smaller, is full of additional pictures and information about the drive-in theatres of yesterday. The new book is well written and edited. It will make a worthy edition to any one interested in the drive-in theatre.
YOU CAN ALMOST SMELL THE POPCORN..........2000-08-13
...and hear the crickets. What a trip! Although drive-ins survive today, only a select few go to the trouble to capture the essence of the hey-day of the drive-in theatre. What is lacking in reality has been captured on paper. I didn't know what the Sanders could do to add to their previous book, The American Drive-In Movie Theater, but I was pleasantly surprised. I stayed up until I was finished one night. I simply couldn't put it down. Well done Don and Susan. -Stu Megaw (the Traveling Drive-In Enthusiast)
I love drive-ins.......2000-07-30
People remember different things from their youth, and one I remember most fondly is going to the drive-in movie. Because of that, I am drawn to books like this one. Though the text of the book is somewhat limited, it still evokes wonderful memories. It would be on my recommended list for anyone who wants to relive the "good ole days!"
They should know!.......2000-06-15
The Sanders have perfectly captured the essence of the drive-in movie theatre. My own work on the subject has given me the chance to verify that Drive-in Movie Memories is a celebration of outdoor movies! It is even better than their first book.
Great pictures!.......2000-05-31
The photos in the book are just great. They made me think back about my great childhood memories of going to the drive-in with my family.
Customer Reviews:
Encouraging. .......2007-05-09
This book was encouraging. It did answer a lot of my questions about record labels. I still think I am going to stay indie because there is just as much money to make this way.
Good.......2006-05-16
An almost complete and well written guide explaining the steps that a struggling musician has to take to ensure success in the record business. You'll find everything here starting from your first contract to the first live shows. A better book that explains exactly the same principles in a more intuitive and easy to understand matter is "The Music Business: How You Can Make $500,000.00 (or More) a Year in the Music Industry by Doing It Yourself! Volume II" By Ty Cohen, . You'll find here testimonies and examples based on the evolution of real companies
Powerful!.......2002-05-25
Daylle's books are a wealth of information for the artist who is serious about their craft and wants to make a living from it. As I've stated before she makes daunting tasks seem achievable and her real life experience is absolutely encouraging and inspirational.
My music biz bible!.......2000-09-05
This book is the best I've read on how to get a record deal. Actually, there are no other books out specifically on this topic. Ms. Schwartz has organized a lot of great information into a concise book. She includes lots of specific things that are common sense but we still don't remember to do. I've read it twice already, there's so much info packed into each chapter. I'm putting out my own CD and the info in the Real Deal was very relevant since I'm trying to get a distribution deal. It's also great for artist development. I read her other book, Start & Run Your Own Record Label and got just as much out of this one. They have different info - she didn't rehash much so you have to read both. The Real Deal is the real deal - she tells how hard it is to get a deal. But it offers lots of motivation and a good spiritual attitude. Thank you Daylle Deanna Schwartz for writing such informative books!
An Essential Guide for All Musicians.......2000-08-18
As a former recording artist turned entertainment lawyer, I highly recommend this book! This is a great basic guide for new musicians (and their managers) who are learning their way around the record industry. It is detailed yet infinitely readable. It is a good reference guide to the ins and outs of getting a record deal - and has other valuable information about the inner workings and politics of getting signed.
Book Description
Su Doku, "the crosswords without words," come with a warning: it is seriously addictive. You don't need to be a mathematical genius to solve these puzzles; it is simply a question of logic and a little patience. Here is a collection of 100 new puzzles arranged according to difficulty, starting with the easiest and ending with the fiendishly difficult.
Customer Reviews:
great book, especially for beginners.......2005-12-27
I thought this was a great book for getting familiar with Sudoku. I had tried another one before, "Pocket Sudoku" with a forward by Will Shortz, and found it to be tedious. This one is more straightforward and fun. Plus - the paper holds up better to erasing - which I did a lot of at first!
From the Board Games Editor at BellaOnline.com.......2005-12-06
The New York Post is often credited with popularizing sudoku in the United States.... as if we needed something new that we could become addicted to! We fell for it like a ton of bricks, and now millions of us need to get our fix daily, if not more often. For those of you for whom one puzzle a day just isn't quite enough, pick up a few sudoku books so you'll always be prepared. This a great one to start with, with puzzle difficulties ranging from very easy to wickedly difficult. Even the best sudoku-ers enjoy a simple puzzle from time to time (they are quick enough to do during a coffee break), and this book also makes a nice starting point for beginners.
Good collection of Challenging puzzles..........2005-11-11
A good number of easy and medium ones to start off with, then difficult ones to enjoy and solve. Then there are the fiendish ones to really satisfy when the 'urge' kicks in--not so tough that you need a computer to solve, yet challenging enough to take half hour, fair bit of concentration, some pencil markings, some head-scratching...then voila, the EUREKA moment!
Oh, the four stars is for the limited number of Fiendish puzzles; there are only 25 out of the 100. Would give it a '5' if the whole book were all of Fiendish level.
