  The Civic Brand: The Power & Responsibility of Place is a bold and practical book that challenges conventional thinking about city-building, tourism, economic development, and community engagement. Author Ryan Short introduces a new framework for shaping more resilient, equitable, and loveable places that is rooted in identity, values, and a triple bottom line. 
  Drawing from years of experience working with cities, counties, and regions across the country, Ryan Short shows how fragmented efforts, siloed departments, and surface-level branding have left communities struggling to grow with intention or preserve what makes them special. The Civic Brand reveals how place branding, when done right, isn’t just logos or slogans, but about uniting people, guiding policy, and building shared civic pride. Blending strategic insight with vivid, often entertaining stories from the field, this book brings to life the challenges and triumphs of real places navigating growth, decline, and identity. 
  Whether facing overtourism or decline, rapid growth or disinvestment, division or disengagement, this book offers a bold path forward. It’s a call to city leaders, planners, business owners, developers, and residents alike to recognize their role in shaping place and to do so with purpose. 
  The Civic Brand is more than a book, it’s a movement to reimagine how we care for the places we call home.

  Bob Dylan in the Attic - The...

  Bob Dylan is an iconic American artist, whose music and performances have long reflected different musical genres and time periods. His songs tell tales of the Civil War, harken back to 1930s labor struggles, and address racial violence at the height of the civil rights movement, helping listeners to think about history, and history making, in new ways. While Dylan was warned by his early mentor, Dave Van Ronk, that, "You’re just going to be a history book writer if you do those things. An anachronism," the musician has continued to traffic in history and engage with a range of source material—ancient and modern—over the course of his career. 
   
   
   
  In this beautifully crafted book, Freddy Cristóbal Domínguez makes a provocative case for Dylan as a historian, offering a deep consideration of the musician's historical influences and practices. Utilizing interviews, speeches, and the close analysis of lyrics and live performances, Bob Dylan in the Attic is the first book to consider Dylan's work from the point of view of historiography.

  Irish Aran knitting is a living tradition with a worldwide reach. Arans communicate warmth, comfort and a sense of home, which people the world over continue to respond to, even though the connection to our rocky outcroppings in the Atlantic Ocean may be long forgotten. 
  Aran grew up in the harsh environment of the Aran Islands where everyday wear consisted of home-spun fabrics and knits. Today Aran survives as part of a rich craft heritage and as high and slow fashion on the catwalks of the world. 
  Vawn Corrigan explores the history, mythology and growth of this iconic design in this beautiful and informative hardback book.
