All the Way Up
Author: C. Stephen Haerd Jr.
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781599325996
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Take your front row seat as Steve Heard looks back at his "life lived all the way up," and shares seven decades of adventures and real-life accounts involving some of history's most influential decision-makers through one of the most rapidlychanging times in American history. Steve's story begins before his own birth, chronicling his family's roots, particularly his great-great-great grandfather, Colonel Stephen Heard. A soldier and a politician, Steve's namesake fought with George Washington in the French and Indian Wars and the Revolutionary War before becoming the first governor of Georgia. Steve's own account opens with his upbringing in Westwood, Massachusetts, his private education at Milton Academy in the 1950s, and his years of sports, friends, and academics at Harvard. Shortly after receiving his degree, Steve was quickly commissioned in the United States Air Force and served three years as an intelligence officer in Spain. While living on the civilian economy and making local connections, he participated in some of the Cold War's most challenging episodes, a number of which are still largely classified today. At the close of his eventful three-year tour, Steve became only the third American to fight bulls in Spain as a licensed matador, earning him a framed picture in one of Barcelona's oldest and best known restaurants, Los Caracoles, among some of Spain's most well-known, historical matadors. After his return to the United States in the 1960s, Steve attended Stanford Law School while working as a Santa Clara Deputy Sheriff. Steve then began five successful, eventful decades of practicing international law in several law firms--two of which he started. He investigated and litigated international transborder transactions, including smuggling and financial matters, cases that took him to the farthest reach of Europe, the Middle East, and Southeast Asia. All The Way Up also reveals Steve's philanthropic side, serving 20 years on the Board of the New York City Fresh Air Fund, the last 13 of which he was president. He also served several terms on Stanford Law School's Board of Visitors. Steve now enjoys his retirement with his wife, Susan, in Seabrook, South Carolina. Borrowing a line from Teddy Roosevelt, Steve's lifelong friend and Charleston neighbor, John Winthrop, likes to say, "Steve Heard is truly a classic 'man in the arena.'"

Book Description
Who has gone up to heaven and come down? ... What is his name, and what is the name of his son? Surely you know! (Proverbs 30:4) The most pervasive question in this life is how do we optimally access the next one?

Ever since the fall in the Garden, mankind has attempted to reach Heaven, but the perfect path connecting Heaven and Earth consists of none other than Jesus, the Son of God. The Way Up Came Down explores how, because of man's inability to reach Heaven, God in His own unique ability brought Heaven down in the form of His Son. Ultimately, Jesus is the way up.

Playing Changes
Author: Nate Chinen
Publisher: Vintage
ISBN: 1101873493
Category : Music
Languages : en
Pages : 290
Book Description
One of the Best Books of the Year: NPR, GQ, Billboard, JazzTimes In jazz parlance, “playing changes” refers to an improviser’s resourceful path through a chord progression. In this definitive guide to the jazz of our time, leading critic Nate Chinen boldly expands on that idea, taking us through the key changes, concepts, events, and people that have shaped jazz since the turn of the century—from Wayne Shorter and Henry Threadgill to Kamasi Washington and Esperanza Spalding; from the phrase “America’s classical music” to an explosion of new ideas and approaches; from claims of jazz’s demise to the living, breathing scene that exerts influence on mass culture, hip-hop, and R&B. Grounded in authority and brimming with style, packed with essential album lists and listening recommendations, Playing Changes takes the measure of this exhilarating moment—and the shimmering possibilities to come.
