ISBN: 9780803226746 / Angielski / Twarda / 2010 / 246 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. After a childhood of microwaved meat and saturated fat, Matthew Gavin Frank got serious about food.

Preparing the Ghost: An Essay Concerning the Giant Squid and Its First Photographer
ISBN: 9780871402837 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Moses Harvey was the eccentric Newfoundland reverend and amateur naturalist who first photographed the near-mythic giant squid in 1874, draping it over a shower curtain rod to display its magnitude. In Preparing the Ghost, what begins as Moses s story becomes much more, as fellow squid-enthusiast Matthew Gavin Frank boldly winds his narrative tentacles around history, creative nonfiction, science, memoir, and meditations about the interrelated nature of them all. In a full-hearted, lyrical style reminiscent of Geoff Dyer, Frank weaves in playful forays about his research trip to Moses s...

After eight months in his childhood home helping his mother through her bout with cancer, Matthew Frank and his wife were themselves desperate for comfort.

Pot Farm details the strange, sublime, and sometimes dangerous goings-on at Weckman Farm, a place with hidden politics and social hierarchies, populated by recovering drug addicts, alternative healers, pseudo-hippie kids, and medical...

Urban Assimilation in Post-Conquest Wales : Ethnicity, Gender and Economy in Ruthin, 1282-1348
ISBN: 9780708322499 / Angielski / Twarda / 2010 / 276 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Much scholarship has been done on Welsh and English cities after the Black Death but until now no serious attempt has been made to understand what they were like in the seventy-five or so years preceding the pandemic. In "Urban Assimilation in Post-Conquest Wales," Matthew Frank Stevens fills this research gap, drawing on a case study of the Denbighshire town of Ruthin to discuss the significance of ethnicity, gender, and social status in the network of small Anglo-Welsh urban centers that emerged in North Wales following the English conquest of 1282.
