Told with Boyntonâs signature charm and unpredictability, But Not the Armadillo is a gentle and worthy companion book to But Not the Hippopotamusâperfect for curious little kids and grown-ups alike.

đAt Home With The Armadillo â Gary P. Nunn
âAt Home with the Armadillo Book Summary : âI want to go home with the Armadillo.â âAnd you will, too, once youâve picked up Gary P. Nunnâs new memoir of the life and times of this true Texas original. As one of the founding fathers of the progressive country music scene in Austin, Texas, Nunn helped change the face of popular music. His anthem âLondon Homesick Bluesâ was the theme song of the wildly popular Austin City Limitsâthe longest-running music series in American television historyâfor over two decades. His hit songs, such as âThe Last Thing I Needed First Thing this Morningâ and âWhat I Like about Texas,â have been recorded by artists from Jerry Jeff Walker and Michael Martin Murphey to Rosanne Cash, Willie Nelson, and most recently, Chris Stapleton. At Home with the Armadillo is a unique and revealing debut work that showcases Nunnâs exceptional abilities as a storyteller. His obvious songwriting talents have translated naturally into honest, captivating prose as he recounts the story of his life from a humble childhood in rural Oklahoma to playing with members of the famous Crickets to his move to Texas and into the burgeoning Austin music scene of the early 1970s. The story of this extraordinarily talented musician will captivate a broad audience. Itâs a book for lovers of country and rock-and-roll music, students of the history of those genres, people who grew up in Austin or Texas in the sixties and seventies, and those who wish they had! This is a heartfelt narrative that doesnât hold back as Nunn reflects about the good times and the bad of a young musician on his way to a future that wasnât always clear. As much as this is the story of Nunnâs life, At Home with the Armadillo is also an homage to Texas, to the rich and star-studded history of Austin music, and to all the musicians and other personalities Nunn met on their respective ways through the music world of the last five decades. Personal stories of musicians like Murphey, Walker, and Nelson are integrated with tales of the festivals, clubs, and venues from Los Angeles to Nashville where their careers and Nunnâs were made. Nunn shares wild adventures in Mexico, his personal encounter with the Viet Nam War, and the glory days of Austin when the âLive Music Capital of the Worldâ was coming into its own. Whether youâre a country music fan of any age, a cosmic cowboy, an aging hippie, or anyone who wants to know how it all happened, this book will take you back to the days. To the days of the Armadillo World Headquartersâwhere, as Nunn states, âItâs been said that our music was the catalyst that brought the s***kickers and the hippies together at the Armadillo.â Nunn notes, âI have been blessed with good health, and I have driven over two million miles alone without an accidentâknock on wood! âSuccess is survival,â as Leonard Cohen told me many years ago.â To readers of At Home with the Armadillo: Weâre lucky to be along for the ride!
đHermeneutics Politics And The History Of Religions â Christian Wedemeyer
âHermeneutics Politics and the History of Religions Book Summary : This volume comprises papers presented at a conference marking the 50th anniversary of Joachim Wach's death, and the centennial of Mircea Eliade's birth. Its purpose is to reconsider both the problematic, separate legacies of these two major twentieth-century historians of religions, and the bearing of these two legacies upon each other. Shortly after Wach's death in 1955, Eliade succeeded him as the premiere historian of religions at the University of Chicago. As a result, the two have been associated with each other in many people's minds as the successive leaders of the so-called "Chicago School" in the history of religions. In fact, as this volume makes clear, there never was a monolithic Chicago School. Although Wach reportedly referred to Eliade as the most astute historian of religions of the day; the two never met, and their approaches to the study of religions differed significantly. Several dominant issues run through the essays collected here: the relationship between the two men's writings and their lives, and in Eliade's case, the relationship between his political commitments and his writings in fiction, history of religions, and autobiography. Both men's contributions to the field continue to provoke controversy and debate, and this volume sheds new light on these controversies and what they reveal about these two `scholars' legacies.
đArmadillo World Headquarters â Eddie Wilson
âArmadillo World Headquarters Book Summary : âEddieâs story is by turns hilarious, informative, and the living spirit of its age. . . . [He] piles the most unlikely anecdotes on top of one another, creating a land of enchantment and an order of chemically altered consciousness that rescues an era Iâd thought not so much lost as forgotten. Not only am I thrilled Iâve read this story and wish I was in it, I wish Iâd written it.â âDave Marsh, from the foreword âThe Armadillo World Headquarters . . . was one of the most exciting, and remained one of the most exciting, places in the United States for the years that it was in operation. I saw a little of everything at the Armadillo, and it was one of the great experiences of my life.â âAnn Richards, from the authorâs preface On August 7, 1970, Eddie Wilson and a band of hippies threw open the doors of Armadillo World Headquarters, and the live music capital of the world was born in Austin, Texas. Over its ten-year lifespan, the Armadillo hosted thousands of high-profile musiciansâWillie Nelson, Frank Zappa, Bruce Springsteen, Taj Mahal, AC/DC, Charlie Daniels, the Ramones, Roy Buchanan, and Bette Midler, to name a random few. The Armadillo helped define the Austin lifestyle, culture, and identity, setting the stage for successors such as the SXSW music festival, PBSâs Austin City Limits, and the ACL festival, which have made Austin an international destination for music fans. In this rollicking memoir, Eddie Wilson tells the behind-the-scenes story of the Armadillo from the moment he first peered into a derelict National Guard armory building and knew that destiny had found him. He vividly describes how two previously clashing groupsârednecks and hippiesâcame together at the Armadillo, enjoying a new blend of country music and rock that spawned a many-named movement: cosmic cowboy, progressive country, and redneck rock, among others. Wilson also reveals the struggles and creative solutions that kept the doors open, the angels who provided timely infusions of cash, the janitors and carpenters who maintained the Dillo, and the artists who created iconic poster art. Extensively illustrated with candid photographs and music posters, Armadillo World Headquarters recounts the story of this legendary venue as no other book can.
đThe Amazing Armadillo â Larry L. Smith
âThe Amazing Armadillo Book Summary : Perhaps no creature has so fired the imagination of a populace as the armadilloâthat most ungainly, awkward, and timid little animal. Its detractors call it a varmint and wish it good speed from the Lone Star State and its other natural territories. But its supporters claim that it is the animal kingdom's representative of all that's truly Texan: tough, pioneering, adaptable, and generous in sharing its habitation with others. What is it that sets this quizzical little creature apart from the rest of the animal kingdom? Larry L. Smith and Robin W. Doughty ably answer this question in The Amazing Armadillo: Geography of a Folk Critter. This informative book traces the spread of the nine-banded armadillo from its first notice in South Texas late in the 1840s to its current range east to Florida and north to Missouri. The authors look at the armadillo's natural history and habitat as well as the role of humans in promoting its spread, projecting that the animal is increasing in both range and number, continuing its ecological success in areas where habitat and climate are favorable. The book also contributes to a long-standing research theme in geographyâthe relationship between humans and wildlife. It explores the armadillo's value to the medical community in current research in Hansen's Disease (leprosy) as well as commercial uses, and abuses, of the armadillo in recent times. Of particular note is the author's engaging look at the armadillo as a symbol of popular culture, the efforts now underway to make it a "totem animal" symbolizing the easy-going lifestyles of some Sunbelt cities, and the spread of the craze for armadilliana to other urban centers.
đThe Armadillo With No Heart â Felix Williams
âThe Armadillo with no Heart Book Summary : Kuro is a young armadillo who, due to a prophecy passed down for generations among the people of his hometown, is destined to be sacrificed when he turns sixteen. When he panics and runs away from home shortly before the scheduled date, the townspeople's lives are thrown into turmoil as they begin to call their own beliefs into question, while Kuro himself must struggle with both his own doubts and the dangers of the wilderness. Despite starring animals as its main characters, this short novel touches upon decidedly human themes such as mortality, the importance of friends and family, and the extent to which the common good can override one individual's freedom.
đArmadillo â William Boyd
âArmadillo Book Summary : One winter morning Lorimer Black goes to keep a business appointment and finds a hanged man. This is just the start of what turns out to be a horrendous period for Lorimer as he realizes that he's being set up at work and cast adrift outside the office. This is a very funny novel with its dark side that shows a good man being boxed in and unable to see how to help himself.
