There is perhaps no other European city quite as romantic, as exquisitely beautiful or as enigmatic as Venice. ‘La Serenissima' floats on a hundred islets in a crescent-shaped lagoon, ribboned with canals, its labyrinth shadowed with ghosts of the past. This seemingly fragile city was the birthplace and inspiration for some of the greatest artists in history and was also, for a thousand years, the strongest sea-faring and mercantile power in the world. In Strolling Through Venice, John Freely brings Venice – her past and her present – alive.Beginning at Piazza San Marco, Freely guides the reader on a series of carefully planned and unique walks radiating from the iconic Grand Canal into each of the city's sestieri. Through streets and squares, along canals, into churches, galleries, museums and palazzi; every major place of interest that the visitor could hope to see is illuminated. At each spot Freely peels back the layers of history to reveal the stories of Venice. Practical and informative, richly coloured and bursting with history, myth and legend, Strolling Through Venice is the perfect guide for anyone who has fallen under the spell of this most enchanting city.

Strolling Player is the story of a Salford-born, homework-hating bookie’s son who broke the social barriers of British film and dodged typecasting to become a five-time Oscar nominee. This riveting account of the life and career of Albert Finney examines how one of Britain’s greatest actors built a glittering career without sacrificing his integrity. It’s also the story of an actor who went his own way, did his share of roistering and yet outlived his contemporaries to become one of our most durable international stars. Bon vivant, perennial rebel, self-effacing character star, charismatic charmer, mentor to a generation of working-class artists, a byword for professionalism, lover of horseflesh—and female flesh—Finney is all these things and more—as Gabriel Hershman’s colourful and incisive biography reveals.

HT- Vienna: Strolling Through a Beautiful City Hardcover -Beautifully illustrated, text in English. - tour of Vienna

This book is a collection of hanuju, fäeag tupu'a and rogrogo (myths, legends and stories) as well as some fakpeje (ceremonial speeches) and sua (songs) gathered in 1964 in Rotuma. Many of the tales refer to specific places in Rotuma and its offshore islets (called "dependencies" in the Rotuma Deed of Cession of 1881). The islet of Hatana is central to the origin myths of Rotuma. Seksek 'e Hatan is more than a record of traditions and memoirs because it includes "excerpts from an archaeologist's field notebook." This approach sets the traditions of Rotuma in an archaeological and geographical landscape, and in a context of ceremonial and traditional activities, signs and omens. Supernatural and semi-supernatural landscapes and associated archaeological and ethnographic information are in this book based on knowledge and explanations from Rotumans. This book records a large body of information, narratives, memoirs, and observations for future generations. Its text describes sites, linking them with the narratives. Such records provide invaluable information about the past as the people involved saw it. In turn, this information helps us to understand the present and to plan for the future.
