Book Description
The blue-painted wizard appeared and spoke to Finnian. “You let a man die today because you couldn’t be bothered!” “It wasn’t my business.” “You think nothing in life is your business!” the wizard howled. “But I’ll make it so tings will be!” Finnian waited alert, ready to kill if the wizard voiced a curse, but he only looked hard and said: “From now on, as long as you stay in my land, you will aid any man or woman in need of help.” That didn’t sound so bad . . . until Finnian discovered the whole realm needed help!

Pulling Strings
Author: Linda Pembroke Kaiser
Publisher: Syracuse University Press
ISBN: 0815651163
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 218
Book Description
Kaiser explores the extraordinary career of Melville A. Clark (1883–1953), a musician, inventor, entrepreneur, community leader, and collector whose colorful story is largely unknown. Beginning with an account of Clark’s musical family, Kaiser chronicles the founding in 1859 of the Clark Music Company, of which Melville Clark became president in 1919. Originally just a tinker’s shed, the business ultimately moved into a six-story building in the center of Syracuse, New York. The music company celebrates its 150th anniversary in 2010. Clark also combined his talents as a gifted musician and an astute entrepreneur to start the first Syracuse Symphony Orchestra. Kaiser recounts the development of the Clark Irish Harp, the first portable harp manufactured in the United States that could easily play accidentals. There were other Clark inventions, such as the first nylon strings for instruments, a fruit picker, and balloons that the British used in 1918 to drop more than 1,250,000 pamphlets over Germany. Clark’s story unfolds in fascinating detail: a musical encounter with President Wilson, an opportunity to perform for President F. D. Roosevelt at the White House, a visit to Buckingham Palace to present Princess Elizabeth with a music box, and the journey of a Clark Irish Harp to Antarctica with Admiral Byrd. Lavishly illustrated, Pulling Strings not only uncovers the life of a musical genius but also sheds light on a forgotten chapter in Syracuse history.
