Описание: Orchard Beach might not be the most elegant place to sunbathe, but if you live in the Bronx, it's the closest place to swim, relax on the sand and escape the city's oppressive summer heat. Drawn to the public beach for its less-than-glamorous reputation, photographer Wayne Lawrence felt a connection to the community as soon as he began snapping pictures. His glamorous pictures of proud men and women, loving couples and families at play challenge stereotypes associated with working-class people by focusing on universal themes such as the ties that bind and cultural pride. Whether Anglo, African American, or Latino; statuesque or stout; young or old, each individual is treated with dignity and sensitivity. Lawrence's subjects are a community standing in defiance of popular opinion, proud to call Orchard Beach their own.

A sweeping social and environmental history, The Riviera, Exposed illuminates the profound changes to the physical space that we know as the quintessential European tourist destination. Stephen L. Harp uncovers the behind-the-scenes impact of tourism following World War II, both on the environment and on the people living and working on the Riviera, particularly North African laborers, who not only did much of the literal rebuilding of the Riviera but also suffered in that process.
Outside of Paris, the Riviera has been the most visited region in France, depending almost exclusively on tourism as its economic lifeline. Until recently, we knew a great deal about the tourists but much less about the social and environmental impacts of their activities or about the life stories of the North African workers upon whom the Riviera's prosperity rests. The technologies embedded in roads, airports, hotels, water lines, sewers, beaches, and marinas all required human intervention--and travelers were encouraged to disregard this intervention. Harp's sharp analysis explores the impacts of massive construction and public works projects, revealing the invisible infrastructure of tourism, its environmental effects, and the immigrants who built the Riviera.
The Riviera, Exposed unearths a gritty history, one of human labor and ecological degradation that forms the true foundation of the glamorous Riviera of tourist mythology.

Описание:
'Oh, something is bound to go wrong, but one might as well start out from a position of optimism, don't you think?' said Angela.
It's fair to say that Freddy Pilkington-Soames is not having a good day. His grandmother is threatening to marry a lounge lizard, his old friend has lost her lover, a racehorse has been kidnapped, a priceless diamond has gone missing, and everybody seems to think he should sort it all out.
(Oh, and there's a dead body on the terrace.)
Now Freddy's on the sunny French Riviera, caught in the crossfire of a feud between an audacious thief he's locked horns with before and a murderous gang who will stop at nothing to get what they want. He'd keep his head down if he could, but there are questions that need answering. Who took the diamond? Who is double-crossing whom? And is his grandmother's intended quite all he seems?
(And where did that dead body go?)
A political scandal at the highest level is looming and the future of an international conference hangs in the balance, and once again it's up to Freddy to save the day-in more ways than one.
Описание: Destination for artists and convalescents, playground of the rich, site of foreign allure, the French Riviera has long attracted visitors to its shores. Ranging through the late nineteenth century, the Belle Epoque, the ‘roaring twenties’, and the emancipatory post-war years, Rosemary Lancaster highlights the contributions of nine remarkable women to the cultural identity of the Riviera in its seminal rise to fame. Embracing an array of genres, she gives new focus to feminine writings never previously brought together, nor as richly critically explored. Fiction, memoir, diary, letters, even cookbooks and choreographies provide compelling evidence of the innovativeness of women who seized the challenges and opportunities of their travels in a century of radical social and artistic change.

Описание: Savor the magic of Josie Riviera's charming small town of Cherish, SC. Three inspirational contemporary romances in one exclusive collection. Find out why readers are falling in love with Romance Stories To Cherish & staying up all night reading! These sweet and Christian romances will warm your heart. Cozy up with a cup of tea and lose yourself in the joyful seasons of romance.
A Love Song To Cherish It's easy to recognize another's pain. The tough part is facing your own.
When Dorothy Thompson returns to Cherish, SC, to play piano for her brother's wedding, memories and fear nearly paralyzes her fingers. If anyone she knew back in high school discovers her secret, the whispers will start. Fake. Fraud. Failure.
It's not as if she can blame God for her troubles. No, she did that all by herself. But, remembering His lessons, she's fighting to get back on track. All she can do is pray the wedding vocalist-her brother's friend Ryan, a rising opera star-won't notice the way her hands shake.
When Ryan Edwards sets foot inside a church for the first time in years, he's no longer the pitiable kid from the poor side of town, but someone who's made it on his own. Without God's help-not that He ever cared about misfits like Ryan, anyway.
When he lays eyes on Dorothy-all grown up, more beautiful than ever, and clearly hiding something-he almost forgets why he left Cherish. Almost. But while his heart yearns to call the tune, he can't forget his hard-earned career comes first...and his old friend's little sister is off limits.
Note: Contains references to opiate addiction and recovery. Author's Note: A Love Song To Cherish was previously published as Love's Sweet Cadence. It has been lightly revised.
A Christmas To Cherish
There's nothing a Christmas kiss won't cure. Except perhaps a shattered heart...
When Emmanuelle Sumter steps off the train in Cherish, South Carolina-a town simply glowing with the promise of Christmas-she finds herself praying God will help her find the broken pieces of her life. Shattered, like her beloved harp. Her dreams. And her trust in men.
Her friend Dorothy told her Cherish is a safe haven. But she never expected Dorothy's brother, Deputy Nicholas Thompson, would relight the one thing she thought she'd lost forever. A spark of hope.
Not long ago, while Nicholas' sister was in rehab, Emmanuelle's voice and smile on his Skype screen held him together. After that, she seemed to disappear, an absence he felt keenly when his ex-fiancйe left his faith in God dented but not broken.
Now she's in Cherish, even more stunning in person. Yet she's holding tight to a private pain she refuses to reveal. Nicholas resolves to be patient, vowing that he'll never let anyone hurt her again. Even when her past rears its ugly head to destroy what's left of her heart.
A Valentine To Cherish
Valentine's Day is all about love. And God has a special plan for a small-town woman and a road-weary singer.
When Scarlett Evans meets Grammy-nominated Christian singer/songwriter Joseph Slater, their attraction dances like the intricate melodies he plays on his guitar. The way he looks at her-like she's perfect, just as she is-is a balm to her recently broken heart.
From USA Today bestselling author Josie Riviera comes a contemporary Christian Romance series set in the small town of Cherish, South Carolina. These sweet and wholesome stories, where God is at the center, brim with love and laughter.
