Tar Heel Traveler Eats : Food Journeys across North Carolina (149300638X)

Scott Mason is the Tar Heel Traveler and he loves to eat hot dogs, cheeseburgers, barbecue, biscuits, and ice cream served in crumbling cinder-block buildings and ramshackle dives along the back roads of North Carolina. As a full-time feature reporter for WRAL-TV in Raleigh since 2007, Scott has discovered that North Carolina is filled with many amusing characters and out-of-the-way places, all of which are part of his Tar Heel Traveler television segment that airs Monday through Thursday on WRAL's 5:30 pm newscast. The most popular stories are always about the hole-in-the-wall hot dog dives, cheeseburger joints, barbecue places, and ice cream parlors he has visited. He has featured dozens of such places on TV and now on paper he expands each story. Each chapter of Tar Heel Traveler Eats focuses on a particular restaurant as seen through the eyes the reporter who stumbles upon these classic dives. He peppers each chapter with dialogue and descriptive detail that includes the often

Penitent (9781789998511)

The much anticipated follow up to "Pariah" is here! In the mysterious city of Queen Mab, the forces of light and darkness are locked in a murderous struggle for truth. The dedicated agents of the Holy Inquisition battle with their shadowy counterparts, the infamous Cognitae, to discover the encrypted identity of the enigmatic, all-powerful King in Yellow. Caught at the heart of this struggle is the pariah Alizebeth Bequin. Will she stand with the Inquisition, or with the Cognitae that raised her? And if she chooses the Inquisition, will it be the wise but ruthless Ravenor, or his rival, the denounced heretic Eisenhorn? Bequin must withstand an onslaught of angels and daemons, and even the monstrous warriors of the Traitor Legions, to unpick the greatest riddle of her life.

Der Genormte Blick Aufs Fremde : Reisefuhrer in Und Uber Ostmitteleuropa (9783447062718)

Reisefuhrer eroffnen den Kulturwissenschaften ein vielfaltiges Spektrum moglicher Beobachtungsfelder: Kulturtransfer, Eigen- und Fremdwahrnehmung, populare Geschichtsbilder lassen sich an Hand dieses Mediums ebenso untersuchen wie die Differenzierung der angesprochenen Zielgruppen, der Wandel von Reisegewohnheiten oder die wechselnde Attraktivitat von Reisezielen.Von wenigen Einzelstudien abgesehen hat diese variantenreiche und kulturgeschichtlich uberaus ergiebige Textsorte in der historischen Forschung bislang kaum die ihr gebuhrende Beachtung gefunden. Nahezu ganzlich fehlen einschlagige Untersuchungen zum ostmitteleuropaischen Raum, obwohl gerade dieser Teil unseres Kontinents zu vielfaltigen Beobachtungen Anlass geben kann: Kulturelle Pluralitat, Uberschneidung und Diffusion bei wechselnder Dominanz verschiedener Ethnien sowie haufig veranderte Grenzen hatten hier komplexe beziehungsgeschichtliche Fundamente gelegt, die sich einfachen Deutungsmustern von vornherein entzogen haben

Dr Johnson's London (9780752884707)

Like its popular and acclaimed predecessor RESTORATION LONDON, this book is the result of the author's passionate interest in the practical details of the everyday life of our ancestors, so often ignored in more conventional history books. Based on every possible contemporary source - diaries, almanacs, newspapers, advice books, memoirs, government papers and reports - Liza Picard examines every aspect of life in London: the streets, houses and gardens; cooking, housework, laundry and shopping; clothes and jewellery, cosmetics and hairdressing; medicine, sex, hobbies, education and etiquette; religion and popular beliefs; law and crime. This book spans the years 1740 to 1770, starting when the gin craze was gaining ground and ending when the east coast of America was still British. `Accessible and vivid. Picard's curiosity and enthusiasm are infectious, and she has an instinct for what will interest the lay reader' Daily Telegraph Read by Fiona Shaw (p) 2000 Orion Publishin
