Summary

MAX BRAND Premium Collection is a riveting anthology that seamlessly interweaves tales of the Old West with the timeless allure of adventure. This collection, featuring 29 Western classics and adventure tales, showcases a rich tapestry of storytelling that traverses the rugged landscapes and formidable frontiers of the American West. The Dan Barry Series and The Ronicky Doone Trilogy sit at the helm of these narratives, offering readers a glimpse into the complexities of morality, courage, and the human spirit against vast, untamed backdrops. The diversity of works within this collection elicits admiration for Brand's command over the Western and adventure genres, exploring themes of heroism, justice, and human resilience. Under the nom de plume Max Brand, Frederick Schiller Faust crafted narratives that transcended the traditional boundaries of Western fiction. Prolific and imaginative, Faust's repertoire included not just pulpy Western tales but stories that were deeply intertwined with the cultural ethos and evolution of early 20th-century America. This collection stands as a testament to Faust's versatility and enduring legacy, as it mirrors the narrative flux and dynamism of the Western genre itself, influenced by the cultural and historical shifts of its time. This anthology provides an unmissable opportunity for both enthusiasts of Western tales and lovers of adventure fiction to explore the storied landscapes of Faust's imagination. MAX BRAND Premium Collection is more than just a compilation; it's a dialogue between past and present, bringing together a multiplicity of voices that evoke myriad insights into the American psyche and the spirit of adventure. Scholars and casual readers alike will find its breadth of perspectives and the vibrant interplay of style and narrative an enriching journey.

    Schoenberg - Why He Matters

    An astonishingly lyrical biography that rescues Schoenberg from notoriety, restoring him to his rightful place in the pantheon of twentieth-century composers. 
 
 
 
In his time, the Austrian American composer Arnold Schoenberg (1874–1951) was an international icon. His twelve-tone system was considered the future of music itself. Today, however, leading orchestras rarely play his works, and his name is met with apathy, if not antipathy. With this interpretative account, the acclaimed biographer of Toscanini finally restores Schoenberg to his rightful place in the canon, revealing him as one of the twentieth century's most influential composers and teachers. Sachs shows how Schoenberg, a thorny character who composed thorny works, raged against the "Procrustean bed" of tradition. Defying his critics—among them the Nazis, who described his music as "degenerate"—he constantly battled the anti-Semitism that eventually precipitated his flight from Europe to Los Angeles. Yet Schoenberg, synthesizing Wagnerian excess with Brahmsian restraint, created a shock wave that never quite subsided, and, as Sachs powerfully argues, his compositions must be confronted by anyone interested in the past, present, or future of Western music.
