This book is about the times of growing up in the fifties as a baby boomer, living on a farm, and then moving to town, becoming a teenager, witnessing the growing pains of post-WWII America, and the turbulence of the Vietnam War and its consequences on American society. This book has romance and adventure, from cruising around town to actual accounts of the things that happened during that era that have diminished over time-sock hops, car hops, the county fair, the beginning of Rock N Roll from Elvis to the British Invasion, to men landing on the moon, to Americas march to the new drumbeat for freedom and equality for all, and the street drag racing scene of teenage America. This book puts the spotlight on the late sixties, which were the times that I call magical.
This book contributes to current discussions about the meaning, history, and theorisation of maps. The monograph focuses on William Blake (1757-1827), whose astute critical angle on cartography invites us to think in a new light about mapping in the eighteenth century, commonly regarded as a key phase within the history of European cartography. Ritchie positions Blake as a participant in a vibrant mesh of cartographic practices, seeking out his antecedents, peers, interlocutors, and followers. She characterises Blake’s participation in cartographic culture as both energetic and uneasy. In addition, the book traces Blake’s legacy as a point of contact for London-based psychogeographical writers and small-press publishers seeking to rethink the nature of maps and mapping in recent years and up to the present day. Through its exploration of Blake's poetry, art, and legacy, this book aims to pluralise and enrich conceptions of cartography from the eighteenth century to the present.
This book offers a comprehensive exploration of the intricate relationship between radicalism and sociability in late Georgian parliamentary and extra-parliamentary politics, focusing on the Foxite-Whig faction.
