1st Edition
This is the second-best way to expose yourself to the particular genius of Frank Zappa (music is the best, after all)--through his own words. In addition to being an idiosyncratic American composer of some degree of controversy, Zappa was an orator of no small ability or scope. He was known for his ability to expound at great length (and to hilarious effect) on any number of topics. The Real Frank Zappa Book faithfully captures this side of its author, composed of essays on everything from his background and upbringing, to politics, capitalism, and raising children. Zappa takes the opportunity to dispel some of the most pervasive rumors that surrounded him right up to (and even persist after) his death in 1993 (no he didn't do drugs, or sleep with all those groupies). If you're familiar with the man, you will be able to hear his distinctive enunciations (aided by the bold-facing of certain words and Zappaisms) as you read the assorted road stories, his views on making music for a living, and scenes from two--count them, two--organized hearings on obscenity in music. Of course, the chapter titles speak for themselves and include such Zappa winners as "All About Schmucks," "Marriage (As a Dada Concept)," and "America Drinks and Goes Marching." -

Motivado por la repercusión de la obra de Mateo Alemán, Juan Martí publicó en Valencia, en 1602, una segunda parte apócrifa bajo el seudónimo de Mateo Luján de Saaavedra. Un año después, Mateo Alemán publicó su segunda parte, declarándose verdadero autor, y obligándose a reconocer en su prólogo el indiscutible mérito de Luján.El frontis y las 16 estampas están grabadas al cobre por Bouttats

First edition Martin Luther King book Stride toward Freedom 1958 Signed by Martin Luther King. Harper & Brothers, New York, 1958. Encuadernación de tapa dura. Condición: Bien. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Bien. 1ª Edición. MARTIN LUTHER KING JR. (CIVIL RIGHTS MOVEMENT) First edition. King, Martin Luther, Jr (1929-1968) African American clergyman and civil rights leader. Book Inscribed and Signed. Written by a youthful Dr. King, the book is Stride Toward Freedom. The Montgomery Story (New York: Harper & Brothers, 1958). First edition, later printing. 8vo, cloth-backed boards in a very good dust jacket. King was ordained a Baptist minister in 1954. After Rosa Parks was arrested on Dec. 1, 1955 for not giving up her seat on the bus to a white passenger, Dr. King led a year-long boycott of the Montgomery, Alabama transit system (the subject of this book), which led to the Supreme Court's 1956 decision that segregation on public buses was unconstitutional. He founded (1957) and was president of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference, which advocated nonviolence and racial brotherhood. In August 1963 he helped organize the massive March on Washington, where he gave his famous "I Have A Dream" speech. He was assassinated in Memphis, Tennessee in 1968.
