Stone age / by Chaubin, Frédéric,author,photographer.; Gemmingen, Hubertus von,translator.; Penwarden, Charles,translator.(CARDINAL)273166;
Game of stones : massive medieval masonry -- Vertical survival : higher, safer, stronger -- Floating frontiers : building beyond borders -- From war to peace : an evolving morphology -- Destiny and decay : the aesthetics of disappearance."Follow photographer Frederic Chaubin as he embarks on a unique, century-spanning journey through Europe. Featuring images of more than 200 buildings in 21 countries, Stone Age presents the history and architecture of the most dramatic medieval castles of the continent in an unprecedented collection. Building on the success of his foray into Soviet design with CCCP, Chaubin once again documents the afterlife of highly rational structures that seem out of place in a modern-day world. Precursors of Brutalism, these castles value function over form and epitomize the raw materials and shapes that would go on to define so much of architectural history. Shot on film with a Linhof view camera, the collection is the outcome of five years of travel and investigation. Complete with a practical map and explanatory essay, its castles tell the story of 400 years, unfolding through the feudal Middle Ages into the 15th century. A photographic study of decay as much as endurance, Stone Age traces the history of some of these singular structures that continue to enchant their audiences today and that occupy a distinct, mystical place in our collective imagination"--Publisher's description

Down the line, a "g" was added and their destiny was sealed. No going back. These five white British kids honed a style that bled bluesy undertones into dark insinuations of women, sex, and drugs. Denounced as "corruptors of youth" and "messengers of the devil," they created some of the most thrilling music ever recorded. Lesley-Ann Jones tracks this unstoppable band through hope, glory and exile, into the juggernaut years and beyond into rock's ongoing reckoning. Good, bad, and often ugly, here are the Rolling Stones as never seen before."--

The Stone age : sixty years of the Rolling Stones / by Jones, Lesley-Ann,author.(CARDINAL)431222;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 368-370) and index.Karma -- Joner -- Mick'n'keef -- Drum'n'bass -- Hustlers -- Heyday -- Reaction -- Marianne -- Anita -- Redlands -- Mouche -- Christopher Robin -- Altamont -- Exile -- Crisis -- Juggernaut -- Mandy -- Cliodhna -- Resonance -- So long -- Roots -- Out of timeline -- Stones women -- Chapter notes -- Quote, unquote -- Select bibliography -- Acknowledgements -- Index"An acclaimed rock and roll journalist evokes the legacy of The Rolling Stones--iconic, granitic, commercially unstoppable as a collective; and fascinating, contradictory, and occasionally disturbing as individuals. As Lesley-Ann Jones writes, the Rolling Stones are 'still roaming the globe like rusty tanks without a war to go to. Jumping, jacking, flashing, posturing, these septuagenarian caricatures with faces that might have been microwaved but coming on like eternal thirty-year-olds.' On 12th July 1962, the Rollin' Stones performed their first-ever gig at London's Marquee jazz club. Down the line, a 'g' was added, a spark was lit and their destiny was sealed. No going back. These five white British kids set out to play the music of black America. They honed a style that bled bluesy undertones into dark insinuations of women, sex, and drugs. Denounced as 'corruptors of youth' and 'messengers of the devil,' they created some of the most thrilling music ever recorded. Now their sound and attitude seem louder and more influential than ever. Elvis is dead and the Beatles are over, but Jagger and Richards bestride the world. The Stones may be gathering moss, but on they roll. Yet how did the ultimate anti-establishment misfits become the global brand we know today? Who were the casualties, and what are the forgotten legacies? Can the artist ever be truly divisible from the art? Lesley-Ann Jones's new history tracks this contradictory, disturbing, granitic and unstoppable band through hope, glory and exile, into the juggernaut years and beyond into rock's ongoing reckoning...where the Stones seem more at odds than ever with the values and heritage against which they have always rebelled. Good, bad, and often ugly, here are the Rolling Stones as never seen before"--
