Описание: From Miss Lou to Bob Marley and Usain Bolt to Kamala Harris, Jamaica has had an outsized reach in global mainstream culture. Yet many of its most important historical, cultural, and political events and aspects are largely unknown beyond the island. The Jamaica Reader presents a panoramic history of the country, from its precontact indigenous origins to the present. Combining more than one hundred classic and lesser-known texts that include journalism, lyrics, memoir, and poetry, the Reader showcases myriad voices from over the centuries: the earliest published black writer in the English-speaking world; contemporary dancehall artists; Marcus Garvey; and anonymous migrant workers. It illuminates the complexities of Jamaica's past, addressing topics such as resistance to slavery, the modern tourist industry, the realities of urban life, and the struggle to find a national identity following independence in 1962. Throughout, it sketches how its residents and visitors have experienced and shaped its place in the world. Providing an unparalleled look at Jamaica's history, culture, and politics, this volume is an ideal companion for anyone interested in learning about this magnetic and dynamic nation.

Описание: "Because he was so tiny and because he played with such cheerful gusto, he was the darling of the galleryites. . . . They were the forerunners of Arnie's Army, although they had no name. . . . Maybe they might have been known as Bobby's Brigade."-Arthur Daley, New York Times, November 8, 1967
In the winter months of the 1920s and 1930s, golf pros had to find a way to earn a living. In 1926, the Los Angeles Open offered an unheard-of $10,000 purse. This started the Golden Journey, which ultimately led to the tour we know today. Pros packed for five months. As well as clothes and golf clubs, they packed extra shafts and club heads so they could make repairs as needed, since wooden-shafted clubs broke easily. There was no going back once the journey began.Bobby Cruickshank was one of the pros who had to be their own promoters. Sometimes tournaments sprang up unexpectedly in which they played for the gate. Tommy Armour said there was no purse too small for a golf pro. Three wives, Nellie Cruickshank, Estelle Armour, and Jo Espinosa, are credited with starting the concept of a logical tour. Most of the pros traveled on the same trains, stayed in the same hotels, and spent their leisure time together. Wee Bobby Cruickshank tells the story of what those days were really like.
