Boston. 1978. Little Brown. 1st Edition. Very Good in Slightly Worn Dustjacket. 0316843911. 243 pages. hardcover. Jacket photograph by Char Lappan. keywords: Literature America . FROM THE PUBLISHER - Powerfully and beautifully written, BLACK ANGUS tells the story of Robert Blanchard, a man who leaves his cushy job in the city to create a new and more meaningful life for himself and his family raising cattle on a ranch in the Ozarks. But from the beginning, like so many other American dreams, this one goes bad. Cattle prices fall. Blanchard's herd is quarantined. His son develops asthma. His wife cannot adjust to country living and longs to return to the city. And Blanchard's retarded brother, Tommy, a thirty-four-year-old bearded child who plays through the teeming days - even he senses that things are not as they once were. Into this unhappy group breezes another fugitive from the city, Blanchard's old friend Shea, the ‘wizard of wind,' an ex-advertising copywriter big enough to be a pro-football lineman but a pixie in his own mind, fun-loving and funny, alcoholic and violent by turns. Wanted by the police on charges of assault and nonsupport, he becomes for Blanchard the wrong man at the wrong time, the catalyst that sets him on a desperate course to save the ranch - by rustling his own cattle. Joining them in the operation are Little Smith, a hillbilly ex-con, and his barmaid sister, Rona, a one-time nude dancer who ultimately comes between Blanchard and his wife. And there are Clarence and Jiggs and Gideon, portrait that snort and sing with life. inventory #7007 ISBN: 0316843911., 0, French, 1975. Book. Good. Paperback. THE SCRIPT!

I'm sure she loved me more than cleaning, but what made her happiest was combining the two.' She writes of her father, Roberto Rossellini: 'My father was a Jewish mother.When we were children (there were seven of us) one of our favorite games was throwing ourselves into Daddy's body. Lying on his side, he pretended to be the sow and we were the piglets.' She writes about her famous nude scene in David Lynch's Blue Velvet, and of posing for such world-renowned photographers as Richard Avedon, Bruce Weber, and Steven Meisel. About being fired as the face of Lancome because she dared to become forty, and about the two years of scoliosis that blighted her adolescence. She talks--candidly but discreetly--about the men in her life: her ex-husband Martin Scorsese, David Lynch, and Gary Oldman. And she conducts intimate and extended dialogues with her beloved dead parents. This book is utterly original, human, and provocative. Like the author herself. / Isabella Rossellini grew up in Paris and Rome. She moved to New York at the age of nineteen, and began her modeling career at twenty-eight, when she was photographed by Bruce Weber for British Vogue. She has appeared in eighteen films, including Blue Velvet, Cousins, Wild at Heart, Fearless, Immortal Beloved, and, most recently, Big Night -- as well as several made-for-TV movies. After being the exclusive model for Lancome for fourteen years, Rossellini is now working to develop a new line of make-up, skin-care, and fragrance with the Lancaster Group. She lives in New York City with her two children." - Publisher.. Hardcover. Very Good/Fine. 8vo., Random House, 1997, 4, Unknown, Circa 1930. Good -. 4 5/8 x 9 7/8.

""Frances Benjamin Johnston was a prominent studio photographer and photojournalist at the turn of the twentieth century. She presented three bodies of work at the Paris Exposition Universelle in 1900: a collection of photographs by American women, a series of photographs of students in the Washington, D.C., school system, and a series of photographs of students from the Hampton Normal and Agricultural Institute. These exhibits all promoted the nationalistic agenda of progress at the Paris Exposition, illustrating American advancement in art, education, and society."" ; ""Johnston was a significant-and arresting-figure in early twentieth-century photography.Johnston produced a good deal of the usual society portraiture of the time-including a nude photograph of a debutante that prompted the girl's outraged father to file a lawsuit-but she was also an important photodocumentarian. Students of African American history can reexamine life at Hampton Institute (now Hampton University) or Tuskegee using hundreds of photographs made by Johnston at the turn of the last century.through Johnston's work we can see Admiral Dewey on the deck of the USS Olympia, the Roosevelt children playing with their pet pony at the White House, and the gardens of Edith Wharton's famous villa near Paris. Johnston's major project on early vernacular architecture of the American South preserves scores of buildings that no longer exist except on her film."" ; photos of the famous include Thordore ROosevelt, Susan B Anthony, Mark Twain, William McKinley, Joel Chandler Harris, Admiral Dewey, Booker T.
