Gone the Way of Truth is a journey through Galway’s rich and varied past illustrated by graves of note. The gravestones themselves are monuments to people who once walked the streets and bohreens of Galway. They formed the very fabric of what it meant to be a part of this historic county. The author has travelled the city and county extensively in the course of his research, discovering the resting places of, amongst others, musicians, poets, the last secretary-general of the League of Nations, saints and those who have shaped the course of Irish history. What emerges is a valuable exploration of an underexplored part of our heritage.

Una vecchia campagna pubblicitaria\r\nper la metropolitana di New York.\r\nDue donne indipendenti, decise a scalzare i pregiudizi.\r\nUn romanzo divertente e appassionante\r\nsu come conciliare al meglio vita privata e lavorativa.\r\n\r\n“Un tema importante, raccontato in modo fresco e originale\r\ne con personaggi in cui è facile identificarsi.” - Booklist\r\n“La storia di due donne, a settant’anni di distanza, che lottano\r\nentrambe per il diritto ad avere una carriera, l’indipendenza e\r\nl’amore. Un libro che appassionerà e ispirerà lettrici di ogni età.” - RT Book Reviews\r\n\r\nNew York, fine anni quaranta. Charlotte Friedman è una ragazza determinata e con le idee chiare, che sogna una carriera nel nuovo, promettente mondo della pubblicità, diversamente da molte sue coetanee che desiderano soltanto una famiglia e dei figli. Quando, dopo aver ricevuto vari rifiuti come dattilografa, scopre di essere finalista al concorso di bellezza per Miss Subways - la campagna pubblicitaria della metropolitana newyorchese - decide di non lasciarsi sfuggire l'occasione: essere ritratta sui cartelloni di Miss Subways, infatti, potrebbe aprirle la strada verso un lavoro nella scintillante Park Avenue.

Quasi settant'anni dopo, Olivia è una brillante pubblicitaria con poco tempo per la vita privata. La sua agenzia concorre alla gara per la nuova campagna pubblicitaria della metropolitana e Olivia non è disposta a perderla, tantomeno per colpa di qualche collega maschilista. Mentre la scadenza per presentare i progetti si avvicina, si imbatte per caso nella vecchia campagna di Miss Subways, con cui scoprirà di avere in comune molto più di quello che immaginasse.

Due donne tenaci e indipendenti, decise a coronare i loro sogni in un mondo ancora in gran parte in mano agli uomini. La New York degli anni Trenta e un divertente dietro le quinte della fiera mondiale del 1939. Dopo il successo di Le ragazze di New York, una spumeggiante storia di amicizia, ambizione e perseveranza.New York, 1939. La fiera mondiale più grande e sfarzosa di sempre sta per cominciare, inaugurata da Roosevelt in persona, e Vivi Holden ha l'occasione per splendere. Dopo una lunga gavetta a Los Angeles come aspirante attrice, sempre eclissata da starlette più raccomandate e spregiudicate di lei, sarà la stella dell'Aquacade, lo spettacolo di nuoto sincronizzato più atteso della manifestazione. Poco importa che Vivi non sia Esther Williams e che non sappia come danzare e sorridere sott'acqua senza annegare: è decisa a non farsi sfuggire la sua grande occasione. Anche Maxine Roth, aspirante giornalista, ha sogni di gloria: scrivere per «The New York Times». Il suo professore, però, aveva altri piani per lei e le ha procurato uno stage nel giornale che si occupa di pubblicare il programma della fiera. Maxine dovrà trovare il modo per farsi comunque notare. Le due ragazze si conoscono nella sfavillante e inarrestabile New York, mentre lottano per farsi largo in un mondo dominato da pregiudizi, segreti e uomini che pretendono di avere il controllo delle loro vite. L'amicizia farà emergere il meglio di loro, ricordando a entrambe di non smettere mai di lottare per ciò che più conta e che le farà davvero splendere.

Tom Boardman was a talented ukulele player from Leigh in Lancashire. At the start of the Second World War, he joined the Royal Army Ordnance Corps. After his training, he was posted to Singapore. To his surprise, there was no actual fighting, but a growing threat that the Japanese might attack. For six months he enjoyed the easy-going vibrancy of a city where cultures mixed and bright lights shone. But Tom wondered why planning and preparation for a Japanese attack on the British Empire’s Jewel of the Empire appeared to be unhurried, disorganised and complacent.\n\nSingapore surrendered to the Japanese in February 1942, and Tom became a Prisoner of War. He lost his treasured ukulele in the confusion and chaos of bitter fighting, but cleverly concealed the cherished ring his wife Irene had lovingly given to him as he left England.\n\nFortuitously, Tom found a broken mandolin and, using its tuning pegs, made a homespun replacement ukulele. Although Tom said it was too small and not loud enough, it surprisingly survived for two years and gave Tom great solace whilst he slaved on the infamous Thai-Burma railway. Working in the heat and humidity of the Thai jungle was arduous. He suffered from several life-threating tropical diseases and illnesses; the food was sparse and unappetising, and the Japanese discipline was brutal. But they could not take away Tom’s powerful will to survive and his unending enthusiasm to entertain. Despite continuous adversity, he mustered the energy and in the darkest hours raised spirits by singing popular songs to his fellow Prisoners and was always ready to perform at camp concert parties.\n\nAfter the railway’s completion, Tom built a second, more robust ukulele. He sketched its design and technical specification in his rough not, paying careful attention to the precise positioning of the frets. By scouring the prison camp, Tom collected discarded items and, using his ingenuity, improvisation and endless patience, he crafted a remarkable ukulele.\n\nConcert parties provided an important distraction from the harsh realities of incarceration. Tom, with his new ukulele, thrived in the orchestras and choirs and performed in comedy routines, plays and musicals.\n\nAfter the Japanese surrendered, Tom revealed the gold ring he had successfully kept hidden since his capture three and a half years previously. He soon returned home and, together with his ukulele, reunited with Irene and his family.\n\nThe Ukulele Man is a true story of Tom’s triumph over adversity through his passion for music and entertainment and not to let the Japanese defeat him. The Imperial War Museum North permanently displays the ukulele.
