She and her family moved to San Francisco when she was 9 and Lotta continued to attract much attention on the stage for a number of years. Several years later she came east and was a sensation in the Broadway music halls. As can be imagined, the beautiful performer was ardently persued but never married; her mother, and later she herself, invested in California real estate. She retired to New Jersey, a wealthy woman, at age 45., Lotta, who became the most popular soubrette of the seventies and eighties, began her career in the gold camps of the High Sierras, and the gambling saloons and variety halls of San Francisco. Troupes appeared not only in the theatres of the cities, but took to the road by stage coach or even on foot and played in the remotest mining towns with showers of gold as their reward. This is the story of the fascinating Lotta who emerged out of this background to become throughout the country the foremost comedy actress and the pioneer in extravaganza and burlesque. Includes much about other entertainers of the time, including Ada Menken, Lola Montez, the Booths, Julia Dean, and more. Wheat's California Gold Rush. Signed by Author(s). 1st Edition. Hardcover.

SIGNED Copy ON Da Capo Press BOOKPLATE by Chen on Title Page , Once Apple introduced the App Store and opened it up to outside developers, however, the iPhone became capable of serving a rapidly growing number of functions--now more than 200,000 and counting. But the iPhone has implications far beyond the phone or gadget market. In fact, it's opening the way to what Brian Chen calls the "always-on" future, where we are all constantly connected to a global Internet via flexible, incredibly capable gadgets that allow us to do anything, anytime, from anywhere. This has far-reaching implications--both positive and negative--throughout all areas of our lives, opening the door for incredible personal and societal advances while potentially sacrificing both privacy and creative freedom in the process. Always Onis the first book to look at the surprising and expansive significance of Apple's incredibly powerful vertical business model, and the future it portends.. Signed by Author. 1st Edition.

The son of a minister, he was baptized as a surfer in the small waves of Charleston, S.C. Surfing helped him overcome his childhood fears of tidal waves and drowning. While taking a unique course called "Cultures of the Pacific" in school, he began dreaming about living in Hawaii some day. After graduating from the University of South Carolina's Honors College, Coleman moved to Los Angeles for bigger surf and better career opportunities.

London: Faber and Faber, 1936. Cloth. Good-only. FIRST EDITION, NANCY ASTOR's COPY. 8vo, pp. [1-4], 7-368 (as usual). Original green cloth, spine lettered in gilt. Spine cocked, cloth splitting at upper joint, rubbed, large stain to front board. "Nancy Astor" in brown ink to ffep, some foxing, esp. endpapers. Else, clean and tight. Good-only A well-handled copy of the journalist-farmer's anthology, with Nancy Astor's name inscribed to ffep, but without a Cliveden Library shelf label. Nancy Astor, Viscountess Astor (1879-1964) was an American-born British politician and the first woman to sit in British parliament, serving as Unionist MP for Plymouth Sutton from 1919 t o 1945. From the year of publication – 1936 – onwards, Astor's reputation suffered "irretrievable damage" due to journalist Claud Cockburn's attacks on the 'Cliveden set' (ODNB). Adrian Bell's anthology, through which he "tried to catch some glint of the genius of the country in an oblique, perhaps the only way", opens with Thomas Hardy and juxtaposes Wordsworth and Thomas Bewick, Gertrude Jekyll and Mrs Gaskell, D. H. Lawrence and Gerard Manly Hopkins, as well as Thoreau and Proust, amongst others. He thanked Mrs Q. D. Leavis for "all her help". Bell (1901-1980), a Suffolk-based farmer, was a significant contributor to rural or 'land literature,' and is perhaps best known for his trilogy of novels Corduroy, Silver Ley & The Cherry Tree (1930-32), and being the first Times crossword compiler. Astor and Bell don't appear to have known each other personally.
