Tony Bennett in the Studio: A Life of Art & Music, by Tony Bennett with Robert Sullivan, foreword by Mitch Albom, preface by Mario Cuomo (5 copies will be given away): Tony Bennett has a talent that sets him apart from any other entertainer. He's the premier interpreter of the Great American songbook, a 15-time Grammy® winner, and a Kennedy Center honoree, among countless other achievements. What many of his admirers may not know, however, is that for as long as Tony Bennett has been singing, he has been painting. Under his family name of Benedetto, he is a successful painter whose works hangs in museums and galleries, including a painting the Smithsonian American Art Museum that is part of their permanent collection. This beautiful new book, Tony Bennett in the Studio, is richly illustrated with his own artwork, and within its pages, Bennett takes the time to reflect on his career, and the inspiration that continues to infuse both his music and his art.
Sacred Earth: Places of Peace and Power by Martin Gray, foreword by Graham Hancock (5 copies will be given away): Acclaimed photographer and anthropologist Martin Gray spent the last 20 years on an amazing pilgrimage: he visited 1,000 sacred sites in 80 countries around the world. His journey unfolds in a remarkable compilation of images that reveals just how devoutly pre-industrial cultures everywhere worshipped and respected our Earth. From the Western Wall to the Great Mosque of Damascus, Mt. Olympus to Assisi, Tibet’s Potala Palace to Hawaii’s Mauna Kea, Teotihuacán in Mexico to the Golden Temple in Amritsar, these are the awe-inspiring places from which all the world’s great religions sprang, along with our finest culture, art, and architecture.
Gray’s stunning photographs and fascinating text provide unique insight into why these powerful holy places are the most venerated and visited sites on the entire planet. Maps adapted from the National Geographic Society show the locations of all the sites presented, and a thorough appendix includes a comprehensive list of over 500 of the world’s sacred sites.
Moby Dick: A Pop Up Book by Sam Ita: Age range:6 upwards. “Unlike any other version of Moby Dick ever created. The idea of combining a graphic novel with pop-ups is brilliant.”
