Ciudad Colonial, Santo Domingo features over 150 photographs of the colonial city of Santo Domingo in the Dominican Republic. It is a unique photographic guide to the first settlement in the New World . Eight photographers capture the essence of this culturally rich and historic city, declared a World Heritage Site by the Unesco in 1990. More than a guide for tourists , the handsomely designed book documents the architectural wonders of the colonial city, its historic monuments, its hidden gardens and treasures, its people and its very unique flavor. The clear and informative captions in both English and Spanish make this book interesting and accessible for anyone . The Dominican Republic mostly known for its beaches and palm trees offers much more to the curious visitor. The colonial city, commonly known as la zona colonial is a town nestled within the capital city of Santo Domingo and as the editors point out, there is much to discover if one cares to wander off the beaten track . The photographers, Amadeo Anselin, Nemanja Brankovic, Ricardo Briones, Jaime Guerra, Amanda Livoti , Ricardo Piantini , Pancho Rodríguez and Manolo Vidal offer a diverse selection and a unique vision of the heart of one of the oldest and less explored cities in America. An extra bonus : the proceeds benefit a local Dominican non profit organization, Fundacion Abriendo Camino, that works to improve the lives of poverty stricken children and adolescents in Santo Domingo.

Julio Mario Santo Domingo (1957-2009) was a collector and visionary who filled his homes and warehouses with the world’s greatest private collection related to the subjects of drugs, sex, magic, and rock and roll. A library of more than 50,000 items, it contained everything from rare manuscripts and photos to posters, bottles, letters, opium pipes, and pinball machines. Exploring the innumerable influences of mind-enhancing drugs on art, science, and politics over the centuries, Santo Domingo’s collection contained work by diverse figures including Andy Warhol, Timothy Leary, Sigmund Freud, the Marquis de Sade, Charles Baudelaire, Allen Ginsberg, the Rolling Stones, Aleister Crowley, and many more.

Sociologist José A. Moreno was doing fieldwork in Santo Domingo when the revolution broke out in April 1965. For four months he lived in the rebel zone of the city, where he helped with the organization of medical clinics and food distribution centers. His activities brought him into daily contact with top leaders of the rebel forces, members of political organizations, commando groups of young men from the barrios of Santo Domingo, and ordinary citizens in the neighborhood. His eye-witness account is augmented by his professional analysis of the rebels-their backgrounds, personalities, ideologies, and expectations. He also focuses on the social processes that brought cohesiveness to the divergent rebel groups as their faced a common enemy.

The Cathedral of Santo Domingo has a hen house in stone (created in the 15th century) near the tomb of the saint and is the only church in the world that has been given a Papal dispensation to have animals in a church. A rooster and hen are changed every 15 days by a hermandad that takes care of the chickens. The chickens are kept in the church to remind everyone of the miracle.

In the second half of the twentieth century Dominicans became New York City's largest, and poorest, new immigrant group. They toiled in garment factories and small groceries, and as taxi drivers, janitors, hospital workers, and nannies. By 1990, one of every ten Dominicans lived in New York. A Tale of Two Cities tells the fascinating story of this emblematic migration from Latin America to the United States. Jesse Hoffnung-Garskof chronicles not only how New York itself was forever transformed by Dominican settlement but also how Dominicans' lives in New York profoundly affected life in the Dominican Republic. A Tale of Two Cities is unique in offering a simultaneous, richly detailed social and cultural history of two cities bound intimately by migration. It explores how the history of burgeoning shantytowns in Santo Domingo--the capital of a rural country that had endured a century of intense U.S. intervention and was in the throes of a fitful modernization--evolved in an uneven dialogue with the culture and politics of New York's Dominican ethnic enclaves, and vice versa. In doing so it offers a new window on the lopsided history of U.S.-Latin American relations. What emerges is a unique fusion of Caribbean, Latin American, and U.S. history that very much reflects the complex global world we live in today.

Life on the Malecón is a narrative ethnography of the lives of street children and youth living in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic, and the non-governmental organizations that provide social services for them. Writing from the perspective of an anthropologist working as a street educator with a child welfare organization, Jon M. Wolseth follows the intersecting lives of children, the institutions they come into contact with, and the relationships they have with each other, their families, and organization workers.Often socioeconomic conditions push these children to move from their homes to the streets, but sometimes they themselves may choose the allure of the perceived freedoms and opportunities that street life has to offer. What they find, instead, is violence, disease, and exploitation—the daily reality through which they learn to maneuver and survive. Wolseth describes the stresses, rewards, and failures of the organizations and educators who devote their resources to working with this population.The portrait of Santo Domingo’s street children and youth population that emerges is of a diverse community with variations that may be partly related to skin color, gender, and class. The conditions for these youth are changing as the economy of the Dominican Republic changes. Although the children at the core of this book live and sleep on avenues and plazas and in abandoned city buildings, they are not necessarily glue- and solvent-sniffing beggars or petty thieves on the margins of society. Instead, they hold a key position in the service sector of an economy centered on tourism.Life on the Malecón offers a window into the complex relationships children and youth construct in the course of mapping out their social environment. Using a child-centered approach, Wolseth focuses on the social lives of the children by relating the stories that they themselves tell as well as the activities he observes.

Hardcover. The sixteenth volume in the popular John Pearce Adventures set on the high seas1796: John Pearce is stuck with a difficult mission - a raw crew of Quota Men forced to enlist in the Royal Navy and four brand-new midshipmen as well as Samuel Oliphant, companion cum spy, whom he finds a constant irritant. In his favour he commands the sound and speedy warship HMS Hazard, a pair of competent officers and, of course, his trusty old friends the Pelicans. Their primary mission is to head for the Mediterranean Fleet and warn Admiral Sir John Jervis of impending danger he will face fighting a combined French/Spanish fleet. But there is a serious distraction: the imminent arrival of a Spanish vessel from South America carrying silver, for which the Spaniards are waiting before declaring war. Stop that and they will lack the funds to truly engage as an enemy of Britannia - but it is a distraction from Pearce's main task and specific orders. Can he resist the lure of such a valuable capture and risk his ship in a dangerous battle to gain it, or will his duty come first? Volume #16 in the John Pearce Adventures. 1796: John Pearce and the Pelicans are stuck with a difficult mission: sailing the HMS Hazard to warn Admiral Sir John Jervis of impending danger from the combined French/Spanish fleet, while resisting the lure of a treasure-laden Spanish vessel inbound from South America.
