  100 20th-Century Sports and...

  Society Twentieth Century

  A showcase of Britain's most architecturally significant sports and leisure buildings from the twentieth century and beyond.
  100 20th Century Sports and Leisure Buildings gives a fascinating insight into the spaces where we play: from swimming pools and skate parks to ice rinks and cricket pavilions. These structures are not only an intensely evocative part of our shared social heritage but some of the most architecturally innovative constructions of the past century – as seen here in buildings by architects including Edwin Lutyens, Walter Tapper, John Burnet and Zaha Hadid.
  The twentieth century saw a rapid expansion in the public provision for sports and leisure as workers won the right to paid holiday, prompting a boom in the construction of municipal lidos, pools and sports grounds. Later in the century leisure centres brought together facilities for a whole range of sports with an emphasis on family fun, combining environmentally controlled environments with soaring engineering and playful pop imagery. Space-age geodesic domes, diamond-glazed pyramids, castellated forts, brutalist elephants and Moorish postmodern palaces are just a few of the highlights of this idiosyncratic genre showcased here.
  Expert essays on particular building types, including Alan Powers on lidos and Simon Inglis on sports stadiums, give further context to these spaces. Also included is an introduction with a strong campaigning element – with the decimation of local authority budgets forcing the closure of many centres and pools, this is a timely exploration that provides a crucial record of this key part of our cultural heritage.

  Counting Down Bruce Springsteen...

  This ultimate playlist for fans of the Boss “makes for great debate among friends” (Asbury Park Press).   For decades, Bruce Springsteen has held center stage as the quintessential American rock and roll artist, expressing the hopes and dreams of the American everyman (and woman) through his vast array of insightful and inspirational songs. In Counting Down Bruce Springsteen, rock writer Jim Beviglia dares to rank his finest songs in descending order from the 100th to his #1 greatest song. He also reflects on why each song has earned its place on the list, and lays out the story behind each of the 100, supplying fresh insights on the musical and lyrical content of Springsteen’s remarkable body of work—in a compelling read for the diehard fan or the newbie just getting acquainted with the Boss.   “Many of Springsteen’s most popular songs are here, and rightly so, but so are just as many of his obscure ones . . . Of course, Springsteen fans will shake their collective heads in disagreement at times, but that’s part of the fun.” —Booklist   “Beviglia has created so much more than a list . . . If you have ever seen Springsteen perform live in concert, those musical memories will all come rushing back as your turn the pages.” —Osceola News Gazette
