The Hohokam civilization, flourishing in the deserts of what is now southern Arizona, represents one of the most fascinating examples of ancient ingenuity in the American Southwest. Known for their advanced irrigation techniques, complex social structures, and distinctive artistic expressions, the Hohokam thrived in a harsh environment for over a thousand years. Their story provides valuable insight into human adaptability and innovation in response to challenging surroundings. The origins of the Hohokam civilization are traced back to around 300 BCE, with their culture emerging as a distinct entity by approximately 600 CE. Archaeologists and researchers have found evidence of their presence in the Sonoran Desert, a region marked by intense heat and little rainfall. Despite these extreme conditions, the Hohokam were able to build thriving communities that relied heavily on farming, with maize, beans, and squash being staple crops. The Hohokam’s ability to create sustainable agricultural systems in the desert is considered one of their greatest achievements. Central to the Hohokam way of life was their mastery of water management. They constructed a vast network of irrigation canals, some of which stretched for miles, to channel water from rivers into their fields. This water was crucial not only for agriculture but also for their communities' survival. The Hohokam’s innovative canal systems transformed the desert landscape, allowing them to cultivate the land and support large populations. These systems remain a testament to their engineering skills and ability to harness the natural environment for their benefit.Zum Buch

1996: The year that shaped a generation, revisited three decades on by Ex Sun Editor, Dominic Mohan 1996 a year that shaped a generation – all the glamour, glitz and grit of the 1990s relived, by the man who lived through it all, Ex Sun Editor, Dominic Mohan. From the death of Kurt Cobain, to the birth of Britpop, Mohan forensically examines the era when you could truly come as you are. 1996 follows the year when all elements of British culture; music, politics, football, fashion, food, art and media collided spectacularly, allowing Britain to reclaim it's title as the artistic center of the world. Mohan looks back (without anger), through the lens of his insider perspective, at the decade where records sold in their millions, rock icons made friends in politics and no one knew what an iPhone was. Drawing on interviews from major 90s icons and legends, 1996 is an authoritative account of the pivotal period that saw the biggest artistic bomb in the nation since the swinging sixties. This book tells the story of one of the most influential eras, with keen observations, reflections and exclusive content throughout. nanZum Buch
Carl Moellenberg's story is one of overcoming enormous obstacles and changing course to find his passion and his true self to live joyously as a long-term survivor. It is a journey of many transformations: from Midwestern boy most interested in music to a fast-paced Wall Street career; from investment banking to a 13-time Tony Award winner on Broadway; from overcoming several death-defying crises by finding healing, inspiration from a higher being, and deeper spirituality. Carl hopes that his story will inspire others who face seemingly overwhelming obstacles to find their passion, their reason to live and to find love. "It's a story of inspiration, truly. Of sadness and joy, of growth and spirituality, and ultimately of acceptance. The blending of worlds, a seeming dichotomy that Carl has woven together into a spectacularly vibrant life. Reading his beautiful book has touched me deeply." —Barbara Manocherian, President of New York Stage and Film It is full of heart, told with great honesty, in strong, clear, simple language. His fortitude and optimism in the face of adversity is an inspiration." —Tom Hulce, Actor/Producer "Glorious, quiet power of hope throughout this beautiful, utterly relatable memoir reminds us to heed that inner ever present voice urging us onward. Exploding with simple wisdoms with those more complex matters of the heart subtly lurking between the lines." —Mary Beth O’Connor, RKO Pictures/ Lucky Viii Films "Carl's willingness to be so open and vulnerable around his survivorship, his spiritual path, his artistic path, and his close friendships allows the reader a sense of honor to be included in his journey. I think this memoir can and will help people (in a universal sense) to feel less alone, and inspire them to follow themselves and their dreams." —Adam Kantor, Broadway actorZum Buch
