All of them must, to varying degrees, have been marked by their experiences - experiences that were, at times, both unpleasant and most disturbing. The Evacuees consists of thirty-three accounts by a random sample of those children. Some have become well-known; others are unknown to the general public; but the way evacuation affected them all is evident from what they write. ***This book is not history, though Mr. Johnson in his introduction places evacuation in its historical context - the facts and figures are themselves appalling. The accounts in the book are personal and subjective. It is a truism that anyone can write well about his childhood: when that childhood includes evacuation, the quality of writing from people who do not primarily consider themselves writers can be very high indeed, as more than a few pieces in this book confirm. ***Not all the contributions are in the form of reminiscences. There are extracts from novels and poems and a letter written at the age of fifteen by a boy to his parents who had threatened to evacuate him and his sister to Australia. Not everyone was evacuated within Britain: some tell of what it was like to be sent to Australia or Canada or the U.S.A.' (Quote from blurb to inside front of dustwrapper blurb). ***A second impression of the true first edition, which was issued just a month after the first impression, complete in its original dustwrapper in unusually nice condition. ***For all our books, postage is charged at cost, allowing for packaging: any shipping rates indicated on ABE are an average only: we will reduce the P & P charge where appropriate - please contact us for postal rates for heavier books and sets etc.

Hardcover. Condition: Sehr gut. 1. Auflage. B : 318 Pages, 10.00 x 11.00 in, 280 color illustrations - The Art of Music is a handsomely illustrated and rich interdisciplinary look at the mutual influence between music and the visual arts across cultures and eras. The book sheds new light on more familiar artists at the intersection of the visual and the musical, such as Wassily Kandinsky and Arnold Schoenberg, and presents new scholarship on less well-known examples in the arts of Asia, Africa, the Americas, and Europe, from antique pottery to contemporary video and sound art. Essays consider key works and themes such as synesthesia and other formal and theoretical crossovers, motifs of musicians, and performative and ritual functions of music, musical instruments, and art. With more than 250 color images illustrating works of art in diverse traditions, The Art of Music offers enriching reading for scholars and general audiences alike.
