Alongside Young Mike
For those who are familiar with Dr. Michael Hogan, the professor, the author, the friend, be assured that A Writer's Beginnings is not a book to miss. Should you be among the unfortunate, and not know Professor Hogan or his works, then take the time to read his story. Yes, it is his story, a time seemingly of innocence, the period of the `Fifties and `Sixties. Nothing is the same today, so what you will read will transport you to the age of Eisenhower and Kennedy, the island of Newport, when it was accessible only by ferry, the age when it was safe to explore strange places. Read and relive your youth vicariously in this book, regardless of gender. I did, and though I am from southern California, I felt I was 3000 miles to the east, walking alongside young Mike.

Where time stood still.
This is both a unique introduction to a fantastic and historic city, and a colorful writer's memoir. Michael Hogan's Newport is a bit racier than the tame offerings most travel writers give us today of the City by the Sea. The mansions of the Gilded Age are here, the breathtaking scenery of the Cliff Walk, the Ocean Drive and Narragansett Bay--but there is so much more.Hogan takes us back to the days when Newport was also the base for Cruiser-Destroyer Fleet Atlantic and Thames Street's cobblestones echoed with the footsteps of sailors and Marines, fishermen and sail makers, all mingling with local merchants and school kids. He shows us the Irish-Catholic solidarity of the enclave known as the Fifth Ward, where the Gas House Gang toughs operated alongside Colonel "Pop" Flack, noted tennis coach, who introduced working class youngsters to a different kind of leisure activity. In this post-war world of the Fifties and early Sixties (before the Newport Bridge was built), the...

Product Description
This colorful memoir of growing up in the Fifties and early Sixties in Newport, RI by award-winning poet and historian, Michael Hogan, provides a rich and multi-layered description of the city in the days before the building of the Newport Bridge. Then the island was still isolated from the mainland and only accessible from Jamestown by ferry. Downtown Thames Street had its seamy side with sailors and marines fighting in honky-tonk bars as Destroyer Fleet Atlantic brought troops back from Korea. Still, it was the summer home of the Vanderbilts, the Astors and Goelets, and the aspiring young author greeted both Eisenhower and Kennedy at the Summer White House and made a car trip to Amherst to meet Robert Frost. PUBLISHER’S REVIEW “Before the Jazz Festivals, the condominiums, the gentrification of Thames Street, the Bed and Breakfasts, and the Bridge that let the tourists and New York investors turn my hometown into a theme park, there was another Newport. Shrouded by fog, slowed by cobblestone streets, full of abandoned mysterious mansions, turreted and dark, it was a town that held history as mysteriously as the true wine in some misplaced Medieval grail. Like all really interesting towns, Newport had its seamy side as well. Although nowadays it is largely upscale, in 1955 there was still the Gas House Gang, the Irish toughs of the Fifth Ward, the sailors and the Marines in the rough bars along Thames (pronounced then in the English way, “Tems”) Street, the “Colored” neighborhood, the rough and tumble docks, Long Wharf, the cinder lots and broken pavement near the railroad depot, the vacant lots and haunted houses, Tim the Ragpicker, and the Crazy Lady on Carroll Street. There was also the Newport of the Ocean Drive and the Cliff Walk where one could see the magnificent homes of the last of the robber barons of the 1890s: the Duponts, the Rockefellers, the Pierponts, the Morgans and the Vanderbilts. It was the vacation spot of presidents and the locus of the summer White House for Dwight D. Eisenhower and later for John F. Kennedy. The early mists rising from the trees, the sounds of flickers and wrens, occasionally a song bird, were part of every morning. The bleat of sheep from a hill off in the distance, the fog horns of destroyers out in Narragansett Bay, the thin scrape of a garden rake were my summer music. Had my parents wished me to become a poet, they could not have planned it better. Always on these summer mornings there was the sense of the world being born again.” Top to learn more

Excellent Sport Sandal - I'm a Fan for Life
I resisted for a while (years) while my wife raved about her Keen sandals. I like Tevas (Terra Fi 2) and have owned many pairs over the past 10 years. Love them for warm weather hiking, around the water, and general warm/wet conditions. But, I finally gave these Keens a try after wearing out the soles of my Tevas. The reviewers are right on. They feel like sneakers and I wear them all day with pleasure. These are a great buy. I'm going to buy another pair of Teva Terra Fi 2s also but I do love these Keens. Pros: - Rugged build - Great traction (I think the Tevas are a little better but I hardly notice the difference - that's the key detail) - I bought the mostly nylon (not leather) version (brown/bison) and they do dry quickly. My wife has the leather version and they're significantly slower to dry - overnight at least. - Extremely comfortable to wear all day - I never have to adjust these - they stay on my feet in all conditions...

Great shoes for active lifestyle, worth every penny
Friends recommended these after I complained about not finding shoes that worked well and lasted. I about had a heart attack at paying $90 for sandals. They're worth every penny and I've ordered my second pair. I live on a cruising sailboat in the Sea of Cortez, Mexico. My husband and I love to hike and try to hike for two to three hours a day when we're in an anchorage-- starting in the water as we wade ashore, across the beach and up to the peak of the nearest hill. Desert hiking, over sand, dirt and rocks of various sizes. In towns, we go all over on dirt and paved roads and sidewalks. Temperatures are typically in the mid-90's. Prior to getting a pair of Keens, I've never had a sandal or shoe -- even sneakers or hiking boots -- last more than three months; I've even had them fail on the second day of wearing them -- and these have been name-brand, expensive shoes marketed for this sort of activity. The biggest problem has been that the layers of the sole have...

9,999 shoes later, I found my love!
Ok, I confess, it kills me to spend $50 on shoes. But at 38, and on my feet all day, plus filling in the mid-drift...The shoes I wore in the young hottie days are getting their revenge. Worse yet...at a size 10.5-11 W, I canNOT find shoes to fit. In need of some water wading shoes, I found a purple pair of this model (incorrectly shown as red on this site) that I thought was too "off color" for professional wear, but worthy of play shoes...for a clearance price of $30 comfort to please my desperation, who could deny the deal? SHOOT. I don't care if they had bright flashing fuschia blinkers and a whoopie cushion to boot. These shoes rock. I live 3 hrs from the Birkenstock place I found them in WA, and when I head back that direction, I am clearing the Keen sale shelf, and buying a reg priced pair that is appropriate in style for professional wear. The shoe is kind of wierd looking..but I see Birkenstocks as wierd looking (which didnt work out for...

Breck’s close association with Monet can be seen in pictures Breck completed of Monet’s houseboat and garden, which were shown in Breck’s first one-man art show in Boston, in 1890, at the St. Botolph Club, the year of his return to America. Curiously, Edward Breck’s account of their discovery of Giverny does not mention Monet, and rather that the town was a ‘chance’ happening, based on the region’s charms, although it is doubtful Breck was completely unaware of Monet when he went there. At Giverny, Breck not only came to know Monet, he also became romantically involved with his stepdaughter, Blanche Hoschede-Monet. However, of the many American painters who spent time at Giverny in 1887, Breck and Robinson “were the two who became closest to Monet”. John’s brother, Edward Breck, wrote of John’s experience in Giverny, in an article of March 8, 1895 in the “Boston Evening Transcript”. His “Garden of Giverny” is one of the first Impressionist flower garden paintings among the American artist. Monet intervened, however, and the disappointed suitor Breck left Giverny in 1890 and returned to Boston via England and California.
