Babylon By Bus $6.33 Bob Marley’s second live album, 1978′s Babylon by Bus, had to be pretty damned good to match the incandescence of 1975′s Live!.

1906 Novels: The Jungle (Study Guide) $21.24 Purchase includes a free trial membership in the publisher’s book club where you can select from more than a million books without charge. Chapters: The Jungle. Source: Wikipedia. Free updates online. Not illustrated. Excerpt: The Jungle is a 1906 novel written by author and journalist Upton Sinclair. Sinclair wrote the novel to highlight the plight of the working class and to remove from obscurity the corruption of the American meatpacking industry during the early-20th century. The novel depicts in harsh tones the poverty, absence of social programs, unpleasant living and working conditions, and hopelessness prevalent among the working class, which is contrasted with the deeply-rooted corruption on the part of those in power. Sinclair’s observations of the state of turn-of-the-century labor were placed front and center for the American public to see, suggesting that something needed to be changed to get rid of American “wage slavery”. The novel is also an important example of the “muckraking” tradition begun by journalists such as Jacob Riis. Upton Sinclair came to Chicago with the intent of writing The Jungle; he had been given a stipend by the socialist newspaper The Appeal to Reason. Upon his arrival in the lobby of the Chicago Transit House, a hotel near the stockyards, he was quoted as saying, “Hello! I’m Upton Sinclair, and I’m here to write the Uncle Tom’s Cabin of the Labor Movement!”. He rented living quarters and immediately immersed himself in the city by walking its streets, talking to its people and taking pictures. One Sunday afternoon, he worked his way into a group of Lithuanian immigrants getting together for a wedding party, “Behold, there was the opening scene of my story, a gift from the gods”. He was welcomed to the festivities and stayed until two o’clock in the morning. The novel was first published in serial form in 1905. “After five rejections”, its first edition as a novel was published by |

Autos and Progress: The Brazilian Search for Modernity $99 Autos and Progress reinterprets twentieth-century Brazilian history through automobiles, using them as a window for understanding the nation’s struggle for modernity in the face of its massive geographical size, weak central government, and dependence on agricultural exports. Among the topics Wolfe touches upon are the first sports cars and elite consumerism; intellectuals’ embrace of cars as the key for transformation and unification of Brazil; Henry Ford’s building of a company town in the Brazilian jungle; the creation of a transportation infrastructure; democratization and consumer culture; auto workers and their creation of a national political party; and the economic and environmental impact of autos on Brazil. This focus on Brazilians’ fascination with automobiles and their reliance on auto production and consumption as keys to their economic and social transformation, explains how Brazil—which enshrined its belief in science and technology in its national slogan of Order and Progress—has differentiated itself from other Latin American nations. Autos and Progress engages key issues in Brazil around the meaning and role of race in society and also addresses several classic debates in Brazilian studies about the nature of Brazil’s great size and diversity and how they shaped state-making. |
