Ole Evinrude was born in Norway in 1877 and immigrated to the United States when he was five years old.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - This addition to the Badger Biographies series for young readers tells the story of Les Paul, the legendary 'Wizard of Waukesha,' who pioneered the solid body electric guitar, multi-track recording, and many other musical inventions. Fascinated since boyhood with musical technology, the young Les moved from experimenting with his mother's player piano and phonograph to developing his own amplifier and tinkering with crystal radios.After leaving his hometown of Waukesha at age 17 to pursue a musical career--a decision his mother supported--the budding jazz guitarist lived in Chicago, New York, and Los Angeles, in each city finding a new audience and new musical partnerships. A regular on the radio, Les became a fixture in early television, appearing on the Ed Sullivan Show, and later, a show of his own with partner Mary Ford. Along the way, he overcame numerous physical challenges, including recovery from electric shock and rehabilitation after a horrific car accident--both of which threatened his musical career. And yet, Les Paul pushed musical technology forward more than any other musician of the twentieth century. This Grammy Hall of Fame inductee died in 2009, making Les Paul: Guitar Wizard a timely addition to the series. This lively story is rounded out with sidebars on radio call letters and how an electric guitar works, a full discography, and over 60 historic photographs.…

Hardcover. Zustand: New. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: New. 1st Edition. First edition, first and only printing. Hardcover. Paper-covered boards, with photographically illustrated dust jacket. Photographs by Antonin Kratochvil. Introduction by Billy Bob Thornton. Includes an interview with Antonin Kratochvil by Mark Jacobson. Unpaginated, with numerous duotone plates (printed full-bleed), beautifully printed on fine art paper by EBS, Verona, Italy. 12-1/4 x 9-7/8 inches. Out of print. New in publisher's shrink-wrap. From the publisher: "In this, his second book of photographs, Antonin Kratochvil turns his camera away from the human catastrophe and destruction he portrayed in Eastern Europe to reveal another side of modernity -- the broad-reaching spectrum of the entertainment industry. Kratochvil's unique take on the famous and fashionable is not the candy-coated imagery so prevalent in today's fashion and movie magazines. His work underscores the physical and psychological intensity of the creative men and women who have sat before his camera, with images not designed to flatter but rather created to reveal something, possibly hidden, below the surface. Mostly taken on assignment for Detour, W, GQ, and Premiere, Kratochvil's celebrity portraits have never before been assembled in a book. Among those who have inspired Kratochvil to do some of his best work are Liv Tyler, David Bowie, Willem Dafoe, Jean Reno, Billy Bob Thornton, Bernardo Bertolucci, Peggy Cohen, Rob Morrow, Jessica Lang, Bob Dylan, and Patricia Arquette. Incognito is accompanied by an introduction by writer, actor, and director Billy Bob Thornton and an interview with Mark Jacobson.".…
