Описание: Get an inside look at Japanese kokeshi dolls: their skilled makers, the devastation their home region has faced and a travel guide so you can get up close to these beloved pieces. Kokeshi are the simple and charming traditional Japanese dolls, characterized by their cylindrical shape and lack of arms and legs, carved from wood that are historically made in Japan's remote northern region of Tohoku. Crafted individually by artisans in bucolic mountainous villages, no two dolls are the same, and their imperfections are one of the appealing aspects of this folk craft. Though they originally started as children's toys made from scraps of wood, kokeshi dolls have become a popular collector's item and have even inspired manga and anime characters. Kokeshi expert Manami Okazaki has carried out extensive research for this comprehensive guide to everything you ever wanted to know about kokeshi dolls--from history, production methods, types of doll, and trends. Through interviews with artists, gorgeous photos and firsthand travel experience, Okazaki includes detailed information about both traditional dolls and the modern ones being crafted today. In this book, readers will find:
A guide to visiting Japan's kokeshi regions
Information on how to buy the dolls--either directly from the Japanese makers or stockists worldwide
The work of 2 U.S.-based kokeshi artisans
Interviews with leading Japanese craftsmen
Answers to common questions about kokeshi
An exploration of the cultural significance of these dolls
How they've become a sort of mascot for their devastated home region of Fukushima

Описание: This book covers the army that fought the Texans at the Alamo and San Jacinto, and was poised to fight the US in the Mexican-American War of 1846-48. It was far from negligible and on the eve of the latter war a correspondent from the London Times judged it superior to the US Army. That it did not prove to be so was perhaps in large due to the failngs of its major commander during this period, the notorious General (later President) Santa Anna, "the Napoleon of the West".
