Synopsis: Peggy Guggenheim, millionairess, legendary lover, sadomasochist, appalling parent, selective miser, was one of the greatest and most notorious art patrons of the twentieth century. After her father, Benjamin Guggenheim, went down with the Titanic, the young heiress came into a small fortune and left for Europe. She married the writer Laurence Vail and joined the American expatriate bohemian set. Though her many lovers included such lions of art and literature as Samuel Beckett, Max Ernst (whom she later married), Yves Tanguy, and Roland Penrose, real love always seemed to elude her. In the late 1930s, Peggy set up one of the first galleries of modern art in London, quickly acquiring a magnificent selection of works, buying great numbers of paintings from artists fleeing to America after the Nazi invasion of France. Escaping from Vichy, she moved back to New York, where she was a vital part of the new American abstract expressionist movement. Meticulously researched, filled with colorful incident, and boasting a distinguished cast, Anton Gill's biography reveals the inner drives of a remarkable woman and indefatigable patron of the arts. Anton Gill worked for the English Stage Company, the Arts Council of Great Britain, and the BBC before becoming a full-time writer in 1984. He has written more than twenty books, mainly in the field of contemporary history, including The Journey Back from Hell: Conversations with Concentration Camp Survivors (winner of the H.H. Wingate Award), A Dance Between Flames: Berlin Between the Wars, and An Honourable Defeat: A History of the German Resistance to Hitler.

Hardcover. Condición: Fine. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Fine. Fine unread condition black boards with gold spine lettering contained in a fine condition color photographic dust jacket. Includes List of Other Books by Jimmy Carter; Author Dedication; Introduction; Acknowledgments; Index and About the Author. "Americans cherish the greatness of our homeland, but many do not realize how extensive and profound are the transformations that are now taking place in our nation's basic moral values and political philosophy. Our people have been justifiably proud to see America's power and influence used to preserve peace for ourselves and others, promote economic and social justice, raise high the banner of human rights, protect the quality of our environment, alleviate human suffering, and cooperate with other peoples to reach these common goals. We have learned the value of providing our citizens with accurate information and treating dissenting voices with respect. Most of our political leaders have attempted to control deficit spending, preserve the separation of church and state, and protect civil liberties and personal privacy. All of these historic commitments are now being challenged." - from the rear outer jacket. "President Carter has written importantly about his spiritual life and faith. In Living Faith, a huge bestseller, he recounted the values and experiences that shaped his personal and political life. In his companion book Sources of Strength, also a bestseller, he meditated on fifty-two of the favorite Bible lessons he has taught. On Our Endangered Values, Carter offers a personal consideration of "moral values" as they relate to the important issues of the day. He puts forward a passionate defense of separation of church and state, and a strong warning of where the country is heading as the lines between politics and rigid religious fundamentalism are blurred. Now, he describes his own involvement and reactions to some disturbing societal trends that have taken place during the last few years. These changes involve both the religious and the political worlds as they have increasingly become intertwined, and include some of the most crucial and controversial issues of the day - frequently encapsulated under "moral values." Many of these matters are under fierce debate. They include preemptive war, women's rights, terrorism, civil liberties, homosexuality, abortion, the death penalty, science and religion, environmental degradation, nuclear arsenals, America's global image, fundamentalism, and the melding of religion and politics. Sustained by his lifelong faith, Jimmy Carter assesses these issues in a forceful and unequivocal but balanced and courageous way. Our Endangered Values is a book that his millions of readers have eagerly awaited." - from the inner front and rear jacket flaps.

Hardcover. Condición: Fine. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Near Fine. 1st Edition. Fine unread condition blue boards, blue cloth spine, gold front cover facsimile Jay Leno signature/illustration, and gold spine lettering contained in a near fine condition non price-clipped color photographic dust jacket. Includes Author Dedication and Acknowledgments. Illustrated with black-and-white photographs. "Long before he became the host of The Tonight Show, Jay Leno was dubbed by the media and his peers alike as the "Hardest-Working Man in Show Business." Performing comedy at a breakneck pace, he played more than three hundred dates a year and traveled to every corner of the nation. Or, as his mother, who never quite understood what he did for a living, liked to say, "Going from town to town, putting on his little skits." In Leading With My Chin, Jay recounts many of the ridiculous steps (and missteps) that have led him on what may be the unlikeliest of paths - from college campuses to Carnegie Hall to Las Vegas and, finally, to The Tonight Show. Unlike many comedians whose acts reflect broken homes and neurotic backgrounds, Jay revels in his wholesome Andover, Massachusetts, upbringing. As the product of a Scottish mother and an Italian father, he had a home life that was equal parts absurd and loving. Which is plain to see in Jay's heartwarming stories about his parents: like the time his mother knocked him out cold with a pot when he was caught ditching high school. Or the night at Carnegie Hall when she shushed people actually laughing at his show. Or when Jay tried to explain to his dad that crushing the roof on the family car wasn't all that bad. Out on the comedy circuit - a virtual battle zone for Jay - he encountered every humiliation a performer has ever known. From the club owners who didn't pay, to mobsters who spared his life and loaned him their guns, to the agent who wanted him to be America's first comedy wrestler, to the brave and naked strippers who beat up his hecklers for him. Then there were the triumphant performance nights when he was literally mugged onstage, when his clothes were set afire, or when he was merely punched out and taunted with death threats. And also that romantic night at The Comedy Store - working with the likes of David Letterman, Robin Williams, Andy Kaufman, and Steve Martin - when he met his future wife, Mavis, outside the ladies' room! In Hollywood, told that his was a face that would frighten children, Jay went on to explore every facet of movies and television sitcoms, playing thuggish goofballs, before he finally took to the road and ultimately became what he had always wanted to be: host of The Tonight Show. Brimming with stories that are heartwarming and endearing, humiliating and just downright embarrassing, Leading With My Chin demonstrates the silly things you have to go through to make people laugh." - from the inner front and rear jacket flaps.

Hardcover. Condición: New. Estado de la sobrecubierta: New. 1st Edition. New condition black boards with gold spine lettering contained in a new condition non price-clipped color photographic dust jacket. Includes Author Dedication and Preface. Illustrated with a section of black-and-white photographic plates. Sixth printing of the first edition. "My first trip to Washington had been to protest the Vietnam War. But now I was part of the decision-making apparatus of the federal government - the tiniest possible part, to be sure, but a part all the same. I was no longer on the outside looking in. You can't live in Washington for very long without becoming cynical about politicians and their motives. But I've never doubted the greatness of a country in which a person like me could travel all the way from Pinpoint to Capital Hill." - from the rear outer dust jacket. "Provocative, inspiring, and unflinchingly honest, My Grandfather's Son is the story of one of America's most remarkable and controversial leaders, Supreme Court justice Clarence Thomas, told in his own words. Thomas was born in rural Georgia on June 23, 1948, into a life marked by poverty and hunger. His parents divorced when Thomas was still a baby, and his father moved north to Philadelphia, leaving his young mother to raise him and his brother and sister on the ten dollars a week she earned as a maid. At age seven, Thomas and his six-year-old brother were sent to live with his mother's father, Myers Anderson, and her stepmother in their Savannah home. It was a move that would forever change Thomas's life. His grandfather, whom he called "Daddy," was a black man with a strict work ethic, trying to raise a family in the years of Jim Crow. Thomas witnessed his grandparents' steadfastness despite injustices, their hopefulness despite bigotry, and their deep love for their country. His own quiet ambition would propel him to Holy Cross and Yale Law School, and eventually - despite a bitter, highly contested public confirmation - to the highest court in the land. In this candid and deeply moving memoir, a Quintessential American tale of hardship and grit, Clarence Thomas recounts his astonishing journey for the first time, and pays homage to the man who made it possible. Intimately and eloquently, Thomas speaks out, revealing the pieces of his life he holds dear, detailing the suffering and injustices he has overcome, including the acrimonious and polarizing Senate hearing involving a former aide, Anita Hill, and the depression and despair it created in his own life and the lives of those closest to him. [The book] is the story of a determined man whose faith, courage, and perseverance inspired him to rise up against all odds and achieve his dreams." - from the inner front and rear jacket flaps.
