The Champs Elysées
Author: Pascal Payen-Appenzeller
Publisher: Gourcuff Gradenigo
ISBN: 9782353401901
Category : Champs-Elysées (Paris, France)
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Ever since Le Nôtre first laid out a promenade for Louis XIV and his courtiers, the Champs Elysées has been witness to the major turning points, upheavals and celebrations of French history. Forming a majestic backdrop to regime changes, invasions and coups d'état on the one hand, and to the most elegant and exuberant manifestations of a uniquely French art de vivre on the other, it now forms a stylish setting for the world's major luxury brands. The Champs Elysées, its origins and its development down the centuries, occupy a special place - sometimes grandiose, sometimes frivolous - at the heart of French history: a treasure store of national memories and a vibrant reflection of national identity, from the age of monarchy and absolutism to the Republic and globalization. The Champs Elysées offers a comprehensive guided tour to the most visited avenue in France. Through major introductory articles and building-by-building studies, from the Place de la Concorde to the Etoile, this easy-to-use reference work provides a vista that is by turns panoramic in its sweep and closely focused in its detail. Founded on in-depth research in both public and private archives and written in a clear and engaging style by two historians who are specialists in the field, this unique and authoritative guide is fully illustrated throughout with an illuminating combination of historic images and contemporary photographs.

When Troy White proved his remarkable "football genius" to the Atlanta Falcons, they brought him on board as a team consultant. Now, thanks to Troy's ability to predict winning plays, the Falcons are pulling in victories. Troy loves his starring role behind the scenes and the thrill of having NFL star linebacker Seth Halloway (who's dating Troy's mom) to coach his own Duluth Tigers team on their way to a state championship. Then Troy's perfect world comes crashing down. Reporter Brent Peele is out to smear as much mud on the Falcons as he can, and that means going after Troy. The vicious media storm that descends on the football genius threatens not only his job with the Falcons and the Tigers' run at a championship but his mother's career—and Seth's—as well. Together with his best friends, loyal Nathan and feisty Tate, Troy sets out to unmask the dishonest Peele—and save Seth's reputation—no matter what the risk. With his signature blend of thrilling action and insider knowledge, Tim Green shows Troy, hero of the New York Times bestselling Football Genius, in a new and riveting adventure.

The Untold Story of Champ
Author: Robert E. Bartholomew
Publisher: State University of New York Press
ISBN: 1438444850
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 274
Book Description
"The lake surface was glass. My girlfriend and I were fishing from our anchored rowboat in about fifteen feet of water, facing the New York shore. 'Ron, what's that?' I turned. About thirty feet away I saw three dark humps ... protruding about two feet above the surface. The humps were perhaps two or three feet apart. They didn't move. We didn't either. We watched in disbelief for about ten seconds. The humps slowly sank into the water. There was no wake, no telltale sign of movement. Unexplained. Eerie. Unsettling." — from the Foreword by Ronald S. Kermani Scotland may have Nessie, the Loch Ness Monster, but we have Champ, the legendary serpent-like monster of Lake Champlain. The first recorded sighting of Champ, in 1609, has been attributed to the lake's namesake, French explorer and cartographer Samuel de Champlain. This is pure myth, but there have been hundreds of sightings since then. Robert E. Bartholomew embarks on his own search, both of the lake firsthand and through period sources and archives—many never before published. Although he finds the trail obscured by sloppy journalism, local leaders motivated by tourism income, and bickering monster hunters, he weighs the evidence to craft a rich, colorful history of Champ. From the nineteenth century, when Champ was a household name, to 1977, when he appeared in Sandra Mansi's controversial photograph, Bartholomew covers it all. Real or imaginary, Champ and his story will fascinate believers and skeptics alike.
