This is their story. \u003cp\u003e Alone with nothing but the mammoth waves of the Southern Ocean, the unceasing wind, a compass, a sextant and a pet cat, they voyage down the Caribbean, through the Panama Canal, past the Galapagos Islands, beyond Easter Island and around their destination--Cape Horn.

Told with passion and wit, this book takes readers behind the scenes of the theater world to show how a stage designer collaborates with directors and producers to create great works of theater and dance. A designer who collaborated with the great directors of his time—Arthur Penn, Garson Kanin, Tyrone Guthrie, Elia Kazan, Jose Quintero, and Joe Layton—shares anecdotes that integrate technical insight with life lessons. He designed sets for the Metropolitan Opera, for Lincoln Center, for Martha Graham, and thirty ballets for George Balanchine. This colorful account of theater life is for scholars, practitioners, and theatregoers interested in how it all works.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50369595736337,"sku":"CIN0819577219VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0819577219.jpg?v=1751297751"},{"product_id":"today-s-guide-to-retirement-planning-book-david-hays-9781496968807","title":"Today's Guide to Retirement Planning","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe word 'retirement' for today's retirees and soon-to-be retirees means exactly the opposite of what it meant for our parents and grandparents. It now means beginning rather than stopping. What will your next beginning be? Today's Guide to Retirement Planning, a resource for adults ages fifty and over, helps you figure it out. This is a book that actually forces you to prioritize by taking you through a personal and financial inventory to create a plan that you will follow because it's your plan. The section on the big ten major financial planning roadblocks is, by itself, worth the price of admission and invaluable for everyone. This book will guide you with practical advice not only on tax, investment, and estate planning but also in coordinating that with your own personal wish list for your next beginning.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e-Ed Slott, CPA, founder of www.irahelp.com \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Baby boomers are reinventing retirement.
