In 1789 the French colony of Saint Domingue was the most profitable real estate in the world. These profits came at a price: while its sugar plantations supplied two-thirds of France's overseas trade, they also stimulated the greatest individual market for the slave trade. The slaves were brutally treated and died in great numbers, prompting a never-ending influx of new slaves. The French Revolution sent waves all the way across the Atlantic, dividing the colony's white population in 1791. The elites remained royalist, while the bourgeoisie embraced the revolutionary ideals. The slaves seized the moment and in the confusion rebelled en masse against their owners. The Haitian Slave Revolt had begun. When it ended in 1803, Saint Domingue had become Haiti, the first independent nation in the Caribbean. C.L.R. James tells the story of the revolt and the events leading up to it in his masterpiece, The Black Jacobins. James's personal beliefs infuse his narrative: in his preface to a 1962 edition of the book, he asserts that , when written in 1938, it was "intended to stimulate the coming emancipation of Africa." James writes passionately about the horrific lives of the slaves and of the man who rose up and led them--a semiliterate slave named François-Dominique Toussaint L'Ouverture. As James notes, however, "Toussaint did not make the revolution. It was the revolution that made Toussaint." With its appendix, "From Toussaint L'Ouverture to Fidel Castro," The Black Jacobins provides an excellent window into the Haitian Revolution and the worldwide repercussions it caused. --Sunny Delaney

In a narrative arc any academician would die for, CLR James has revisited, broadened the context of, reset the parameters for, and perhaps not intending to, also began to expose some of the more unsavory hidden details of both the French and the American Revolutions.Over the half millennium that it took for the Feudal World to break up, a paradigm composed most of philosophical abstractions, like freedom, equality, brotherhood and fraternity, was commandeered by those who followed the Feudal Lords, the Planters, and the bourgeoisie of the major slaveholding Western capitols, who used them cynically as rhetorical top cover. All carefully laced with romantic visions and myths of hope and promise, they were systematically and purposefully worked into Western political discourse as idealistic asymptotes to be achieved. But none of this cheap talk was ever meant to become a reality for the world ‘s Black slaves.Like carrots on a stick, high-minded principles along with the whip and the rack, soon became viable labor management tools. Tied just above the heads of those on the bottom rung of the social ladder, these symbolic carrots were used to spur “the little whites” and “slaves of all colors,” on to ever greater production for the “big whites. ”The aristocracy of skin color” was the foremost of such symbolic carrots held over the heads of “little whites.”The emerging theory was that: so long as their shoulders remained heavily tethered to the grindstone and the profits kept rolling in, little harm was done in having laborers believe that someday there would be pies falling from the sky, or that “little whites,” due to skin color alone, were better than blacks; or that somehow they could eventually become “big whites,” or even that slaves, who were used up so quickly that they had to be replenished every three years, could eventually become voting citizens? After all, religions had sold similar kinds of pie in the sky about the end of the world for centuries and life after death. So where was the harm in it?However, over time, those on the bottom slowly began to realize that misuse of high-minded abstractions to keep them redoubling their labor and the profits that only went to the “big whites,” was all a cruel “power game” played on the playing field and on the terms of “big whites,” at everyone else’s expense.If high-minded principles were ever to become real and stop being just rhetorical top cover for the Planters to use only as cynical fodder to keep the heads of those on the bottom at the wheel making obscene profits for the slave drivers, it could only happen that those principles could become real only if “little whites” and “slaves” acquired enough political power together to turn the social order upside down. And that is exactly what they did in Haiti.Using the brutal facts on the ground in both the French and Haitian Revolutions, and implying by analogy that the same occurred during the American revolution, except that the American Revolution was really a counter-revolution, the author has shown us how those on the bottom rung of the social ladder in Haiti — the “little whites,” “mulattoes,” and “African slaves,” who believed in the high-minded principles of the French and American Revolution, even when the Colonial masters themselves did not — were able to rise above its most cynical interpretations to seize power and make them real for all the Haitian and French people.On a global canvas driven by, and punctuated by, the Seven Years War, the author weaves a narrative of details that expresses the brutal realities of those times; and he does so in the most cold-blooded of terms. The graphic details of how the war was played out day-by-day, decision my decision, intrigue by intrigue, and treachery by treachery, over more than a decade, can now replace the mythical high-minded, syrupy romantic versions: Freedom was won only after the stronger powers eventually became the weaker ones on the battlefields, and were then forced to fold their hands and sue for peace. QEDThe force that animated both the American and French revolutions is no longer much of a secret. It was the same nasty inhuman undertow of geopolitical competition that animated the rest of the Western world: the mindless quest for the enormous global profits generated by labor from the African slave trade.While the unfolding drama was centered mainly in the Caribbean (mostly San Domingue, Jamaica, Barbados and Cuba), it became a template and a trope that extended into America and across South America as far away as Brazil.This story is centered in the nature-rich, but still notoriously emotionally backward and wretched little voodoo-laced Caribbean environmental paradise called San Domingue (today’s Haiti). Paradoxically, the logical end-point to this story is what all of the corrupt geo-competitive slave-dependent states had long feared: a slave revolt engineered by a single slave who was also so brilliant a politician, a master strategist and tactician, a straight-shooting much respected negotiator, a preacher, and a warrior who led from the front, one who believed with all his heart in the principles that the French Republic had used only as rhetorical top cover, that he was compared to, and defeated Napoleon Bonaparte on the battlefield. His named was Toussaint L’ Ouverture.If you can imagine a three-dimensional chess board in which checkmate is the last shot fired in a circular firing squad, with the second and third dimensions being class and race, and the first being royalty and nationality, then you will have an approximate idea of what the multi-tiered multi-cultured back-biting treachery, brutality, torture and hatred was like in France, Haiti and America during the decades through their respective revolutions. These were really untidy affairs.In fact, it may not be easy to see that the deepest truth told in this disturbing narrative is that the French Revolution and the slave revolt in San Domingue, were in truth just two of the unintended consequences of —indeed lingering imperatives of — the “so-called” earlier American Revolution, which a decade before had set the table for, and had become the template for them both. And which, if the complete truth were ever told, was itself but a fearful convulsive reaction to the expected impending end of the transatlantic slave trade.Couple that with the prohibition against moving west into Indian territory imposed by the Treaty of Paris, and a slightly increased British war surtax, and you will then see why the “so-called” American Revolution in fact became little more than what Professor Gerald Horne called a counter-revolutionary imperative: It was these very modest calls for peaceful coexistence at the end of the Seven Years War, that had set the table for, and set in motion, the “so-called” American (counter) Revolution. Each of these very modest peace conditions (we are led to believe in canonical American history), made the reactionary American patriots, hopping mad enough to launch their own revolution?Thus, the full truth is finally told here: all three — the American and French Revolutions, as well as the Haitian slave revolt — were all of one ignominious piece, clandestinely instigated by the vengeful reaction of the ostensible winner of the Seven Years War, the then “not-so-great-again,” Great Britain.In fact, the exercise left here for the astute reader is understanding that in the background, the devilishly clever ostensible winner of the Seven Years War, England, seeded and set in motion what would become the only successful black slave revolt in world history.While it is indeed true that on paper England was the last man left standing on the battlefield in the Seven Years War, and thus was able to dictate its peace terms, it was all but self-evident even then that England was the winner “in name only.”Just as was the case with the losers, paradoxically, England found its exchequer empty, a causality of seven years of brutal war with troops flung all across the globe, and with slave insurrections popping-up in its Caribbean and American colonies. As a result, its cotton and sugar cane colonies in the Caribbean as well as in the Carolinas were being shattered.It must have seemed to England that it had cleared away the geopolitical debris from a whole continent only to see the ungrateful Americans swoop down under it and take over — turning themselves into an empire even before they had become a nation!Britain thus found itself all but written out of the enormous profits of the transatlantic slave trade, and out of the competition for empire in both the Caribbean and the entire North American continent: San Domingue, Brazil and the Carolinas were “in;” Jamaica, Barbados and England were “out.”The new global centers of sugar cane, indigo, corn, tobacco, and cotton were now San Domingue and the Carolinas. France and America, two ostensible losers in the Seven Years War, now sat in the “Cat bird seat.” How had it happened, and what to do?In between the lines in the subtext, the author tells us that it was the very greed and prosperity of the French and English bourgeoisie, respectively the real profiteers of the slave trade, had started both revolutions. With every increase in slave-generated profits, the maritime bourgeoisie and colonists’ greed simply inched them ever closer to their own doom. As he notes on page 55: “The colonists slept on the edge of Vesuvius.” The mindless increase in slaves, coupled with increasing numbers of absentee planters, conspired to fill the colonies with a dangerous lopsided black-white demographic. In Jamaica and Barbados alone, resentful, increasingly intractable, ready to rebel slaves, out-numbered whites 100-1.Machiavellian England took due note of this situation and came up with the right plan to both lick its wounds and exact revenge from its enemies, the erstwhile losers of the Seven Years war. It made a virtue out of necessity by moving its colonial production from the plantations it had lost in both the American, and its revolt-ridden slaveholding Caribbean colonies. It moved this production to its other colony, India, where ostensibly, free labor, instead of slave labor, was used — that is, if one could call paying Indians a penny per day, slave-free labor?This maneuver would allow England to have its cake and eat it too. For, at least on its face, it would end British dependence on the brutal immoral and inhuman African slave trade, while at the same time, allow it to point an accusing finger back at the hypocrisy of those unwilling to give it up — and who in fact still relied on it for life-and-death — yet continued to proclaim freedom, fraternity, brotherhood and equality for all strata of French and American societies?By simply calling for an immediate end to the trans-Atlantic slave trade, England occupied the moral high ground alone, and thus this superior position allowed it to bring down both revolutionary houses.But more importantly, by stopping the transatlantic slave trade in its tracks, this Machiavellian English master stroke complicated the internal politics of both nations irreparably, and thus helped destroy the very basis of its geopolitical rivals’ enormous profits.The plan England set in motion worked beyond perfection. For it did much more than just expose the moral hypocrisy of its rivals and irreparably undermined their internal politics. One of the most important unintended consequences of calling loudly for the end of the transatlantic slave trade is now firmly enshrined into Western History: It set in motion slave revolts that lit up the Caribbean like Roman candles on the Fourth of July. They could be seen as far away as San Domingue, Virginia, North and South Carolina, New Orleans, and all across South America and Cuba.This book tells the story of how the most spectacular of those revolts happened: That is, how the ex-slave, Toussaint L’Ouverture, at age 45, led the first and only successful African slave revolt.His was a remarkable revolution, one that Western history books, even today, are still loathe to talk about. It was won over 12 years after defeating a Napoleon army of 60,000, a British expeditionary force of 100,000 — and after also receiving timid support from both America and Spain.In a footnote to history, that for the first time only becomes clear in the subtext of this book, the reader will now learn the true reason why Thomas Jefferson reversed the support given to L’Ouverture by his predecessor John Adams.To his historical credit, Adams saw L’Ouverture for what he was: a true republican, a fighter for the same principles of freedom and liberty that the “so-called” Founding Fathers in America, and the very revolutionaries overthrowing the French Republic, had falsely claimed to have also been fighting for? Apparently Adams believed in them as deeply as did L’Ouverture?Our history books tell us Jefferson went to Haiti ostensibly to aid his sworn enemy France in putting down the L’Ouverture led revolt? But, even though Jefferson had close ties with France, that explanation still makes no historical sense? It makes no sense because US policy through Adams already supported L’Ouverture as a republican revolutionary in the same vein as the American revolutionaries, and moreover, he alone was fighting against America’s sworn enemy France.Everyone knew that if Napoleon, who hated blacks (and frequently used the N-word), survived Haiti, his next move was going to be to reinstate slavery all over the French Antilles; return to New Orleans, kick Spain out, and use it as a launchpad to retake the North American continent from colonial America. Since France already owned everything between the Appalachian mountains and Spanish Texas; and could count on Spanish troops stationed in Cuba to join in, this was a no brainer: the French threat was the greatest one facing a new nation trying desperately to hold on to its new empire, one won only by default.But Jefferson was as much a Machiavellian player as was Napoleon and the Kings of France and England. And had his own hidden reasons for going to Haiti panned out, it would have been Jefferson rather than Napoleon, or King George picking up the pieces after what was expected to be a quick and certain L’Ouverture defeat. In which case, Jefferson would then take over Haiti and all French territories in North America as consolation prizes. And then it would be Jefferson instead of Napoleon who would reinstitute the multi-racial multi-cultural Slavetocracy that had previously existed in Haiti as well as in French held America.However, against all odds, Toussaint L’Ouverture dashed both Jefferson’s King George’s and Napoleon’s hopes by winning the revolt and taking over Haiti himself. But as history turned out, Jefferson lucked-out anyway, as after the lost in Haiti, an already war-weary France just gave up the fight and all its territory in the New World through what became known as “the Louisiana Purchase,” And as the saying goes, the rest is history.Here in this book are to be found the always tense and scary details, written about beautifully. But a word of warning is in order: A reader would be remiss — he would commit an unconscionable and an unforgivable sin to get so engrossed in the writing as to miss the deeper overarching narrative running along in the subtext.For those who want to know before hand what Toussaint L’Ouverture was really like, there is no better summary of how others felt about him than what was said about his declaration supporting the revolution sent to Paris, just as things for him were about to turn for the worst. I repeat verbatim those comments from the last paragraph of chapter eight on page 198:“Personal ambition he had. But he accomplished what he did because, superbly gifted, he incarnated the determination of his people never, never to be slaves again.Soldier and administrator above all yet his declaration is a masterpiece of prose excelled by no other writer of the revolution. Leader of a backward and ignorant mass, he was yet in the forefront of the great historical movement of his time.The Blacks were taking their part in the destruction of European Feudalism begun by the French Revolution, and liberty, and equality, the slogans of the revolution, meant far more to them than to any Frenchman.That was why in the hour of danger Toussaint, uninstructed as he was, could find the language and accent of Diderot, Rousseau, and Raynal, of Mirabeau, Robespierre and Danton. And in one respect he excelled them all. For even all these masters of the spoken and written word, owing to the class complications of their society, too often had to pause, to hesitate, to qualify, Toussaint could defend the freedom of the blacks without reservations, and this gave to his declarations a strength and a single-mindedness rare in the great documents of the time. The French bourgeoisie could not understand it. Rivers of blood were to flow before they understood that elevated as was his tone, Toussaint had written neither bombast nor rhetoric but the simple sober truth.”Twenty Stars!

A long-overdue read. CLR James' review of The Haitian Revolution, brings clearly to the fore that after Toussaint's heroics Black Slavery would no longer be tenable in the America's. It is also a lesson in the historical betrayal of Progessivism by Liberalism. 'The Black Jacobins' is a 'must-read' for all who are part of the struggle to make 'emancipation' a lived reality, particularly for the African Diaspora in the West.

I really like this book. I will reread this one over again several times.This is about the only time that slaves have ever successfully rebelled against their captors and formed a workable country of their own. Haiti is also one of the poorest counties in the West, but to see what these people came through and what they made of it it astounding.

Great work describing the most successful war against great powers ever fought and won. Spartacus gets the movie for a two year rebellion. The Haitians slaves defeated Napoleon's France, Great Britain and Spain. What a history eloquently documented by one of the great scholars of the West Indies.

I enjoy reading history books, and it is always good to pick one up and read about the events that shaped mankind's developement.But every once in a long while, one comes across a history book that is so well written and engagin, that it becomes far more than just a book recounting past events, far more than just a book one learns from, and instead becomes an experience, a book to enjoy! This is such a rare book.I purchased it simply to have soemthing to teach me about Toussaint L'Ouverture and Haitian Independence, and instead got a book I could hardly put down.Besides the excellent writing, what makes this book especially wonderful and memorable to read, is that James doesn't just discuss the Haitian Revolt, but goes into details about the French Revolution, and its inner complexity and contradictions. He also touches often upon the more psychological dimensions of the struggle.Now, as others have pointed out, James' Marxism does tint his writing, but never to a degree as to give the impression that one is reading a dishonest or heavily biased account of events.One minor, or perhaps not so minor, limitation of the book is that it does not treat the successful post-L'Ouverture Haitian fight and independence with the same detail as the previous times. I suppose for that one needs to take a look at other books, but nevertheless aside form the final events, all the history is right here covered brilliantly and with great insight.Highly recommended, for anyone interested in Haitian history, as well as just good solid well-written non-fiction books.

I found the information somewhat outdated most explanations in the book are better done elsewhere. The book deals with offroad recovery situations most fourwhelers will never experience. I suggest going to a basic offroad "live" class and forget this book.

OK

OK, as other reviewers and the author acknowledged, this book is relatively heavy on math to calculate the amount of pull or traction required or available, etc. But the fact is that nearly no one will sit down and calculate how much help they need to get unstuck. What they want to know is safe and effective methods and techniques to maximize the tools they have available - when they try that, they will know whether or not to start walking. The book provided little information in that area that any experienced "stuck-ee" won't already know. It's a pretty good book for beginners, but others are better. It is of very little use to anyone who has used winches, chains, jacks, etc. numerous times, and was very thin in the area of safe rigging techniques.

I was interested to see a number of comments. I realise that it may be complicated and strove not to make it dependant on maths. What prompted me to put the book together was a collection of briefing and lecture notes that I had created while running my small company and giving instruction. I was acutely conscious of some glaring health and safety failings on the part of many people undertaking off-road (ie emergency) style recoveries. In the main it is not intended to be a collection of 'if you are stuck like this photos' and this again was a conscious decision because of the enormously wide variety of situations that could occur. In any case the understanding behind such a picture would still be necessary otherwise the learning point would be reduced.My main target was to give people a feel and understanding of what may be involved in any situation and loads on winches and materials, what the ground could support, and so on is fairly crucial. This also involves bridging in which the scope for fatal disaster is extremely high.The tables at the end are sufficent to enable someone to work out almost anything without a calculator, so long as paper and a pencil available. Not that I necessarily would do that but in the middle of nowhere with a vehicle up to its axles in mud or across a ravine making sure that nothing too hazardous is attempted should be common sense.I was guided by the publishers to a certain extent who felt that it didn't need significant re-presentation. I had also produced a laminated quick reference card but this wasn't practically publishable. This is still available by special request.I am pleased that most people have gained something constructive and hope that at least a few dangerous situations have been avoided.

The book was a little disappointing. It covered the topic and had some very detailed number crunching charts. But for the money Four-Wheeler's Bible is just as good on recovery and has many other topics for the same price.

I have so many good things to say about this book, I don't know where to start... First, I loved the heroine, Ida Mae. Ida is a small town farm girl whose father introduced her to crop dusting at an early age. Ida loves to fly and when America enters World War 2, she gets tired of collecting silk stockings and cleaning houses and decides to join the WASP. Despite her amazing flying abilities, the WASP will turn her away simply because she is half black. Ida's desire to fly and aide her brother overseas in the only way she knows how overcomes her fears and she passes herself off as white so that she may do so. Her mother gets upset, her best friend gets upset, but Ida doesn't let them stop her and off she goes Sweetwater, Texas to fly.On top of getting a firm feel for life at Avenger Field during world war 2 and the flight training and procedures, readers also get a look at what it is like to be black in the 1940s. Ida is always having to worry about her hair curling too much or somebody figuring out her secret because back then, her secret could get her killed. On top of the racial tension is the fact that she is a woman to boot. I doubt anybody had it harder back then. Women in general had it rough, but being a black woman... most of us would not have had Ida's courage.Also in the story is how Ida deals with conflicting emotions regarding her family in New Orleans (she feels she is denying her own heritage and family, especially when her mom comes to visit and has to act like her maid) and her family in Sweetwater. How would her newfound white friends act if they knew the truth? My only complaint about this novel is we never found that out.There is also a situation with the loss of a friend. Ida has to deal with her grief as she watches a friend die and her conflicting emotions about the situation as she realizes it could happen to her.I absolutely loved the courageous flight Ida takes with Lily in a B-29. Great way to end this novel. Readers see how the WASP was literally used and discarded. I feel for all the women that were involved. Yet, this does not stop Ida Mae. Despite the fact that the Army betrays her and her female comrades in the end, Ida Mae still wants to fly, not as a white woman, nor a black woman, but as Ida Mae.Ms. Smith, I would like to see a sequel to this book. I would like to see Ida Mae go work for Walt and come clean about her heritage. I'd like to see her overcome the 1950s and keep on flying despite all odds. We need more books with strong female heroines, white, black, latina.... Thumbs up, Ms. Smith.

I bought it for my 9 year old granddaughter but wanted to read it first. I really enjoyed it - and as it is very truthful about what life was like for blacks not so many years ago, it gives me hope - considering the progress that has been made - that one day we will all be able to treat each other as human beings without regard to race or religion. I wish it would turn into a series :)

This book accurately captures the era of de facto segregation in the US military. It's a quick read suitable for children of about age 10 and older. This book should spark many discussions in classrooms. I hope that school districts will consider adding this to recommended literature.

A wonderfully empowering story about a woman of color. I assigned this as required reading for my sixth grade class. I hope this book becomes a classic on par with Island of the Blue Dolphins.

This book is a beautifully story about how a girl made her dreams come true even if that means giving up everything to act white.. What I did not like about the book was that the end of the book never told you what happen to the girl or if she decided to stay color or play white the rest of her life, it left you up in the air with wonders as though the author wanted you to give the story a end to suit you. This is why I give the book 4 stars instead of 5 other than that this book is perfect.

"Adult" version. If buying for middle school required reading...get the kids version!

The only bad thing about this book is that it is historical fiction and not autobiography. Great storytelling and captivating heroine!

This really was a fantastic book. The characters really jumped off the page for me, and I loved the glimpse into this little-discussed section of history.Really, my only complaint would be that it ended so soon - the writing pulled me along, and I had no idea it was finishing up so quickly!

From Library Journal

The blazingly fast FireWire interface allows filmmakers to take full advantage of digital video production. This guide will, in turn, help novice to intermediate auteurs unleash FireWire's powers, with guidance on purchasing a camcorder to capturing footage to setting up networks and sharing video files; illustrations and examples visualize those processes. The book could have benefited from more careful editing, but the misspellings and other glitches are a minor annoyance. The companion DVD includes examples of films made with FireWire technology and trial software. An appropriate purchase for larger libraries.Copyright 2002 Cahners Business Information, Inc.

From the Back Cover

UntitledDigital filmmaking is no longer a fringe technology. It's the force behind everything from commercial Web shorts by famous directors to feature-length Hollywood productions. Low-cost digital video cameras and FireWire technology have opened moviemaking to the masses, but few people take full advantage of the unprecedented opportunity. For a solid foundation in the latest technologies, turn to FireWire Filmmaking, a book that covers both the technical and artistic issues you need to know to take your digital production from the storyboard to the screen. Don't worry if you've never picked up a digital camera before: FireWire Filmmaking begins with an introduction to the basics, like how to select and set up a FireWire-equipped camera and a blazing-fast FireWire network. You'll learn not just how to use your camera, but how to create a compelling film, thanks to chapters devoted to story structure, organizing clips, and adding sound, music, and titles. Throughout the book, eight successful FireWire moviemakers lend inspirational tips and techniques, illustrated with photos and clips from their own digital productions. FireWire Filmmaking also includes sections on those all-important finishing touches, such as how to import footage and manipulate it using programs such as Adobe Premiere, iMovie, EditDV, and Final Cut Pro, and how to output your final film to tape, CD-ROM, DVD, DAT, or the Web.

#7,774,103 in Books (See Top 100 in Books)

This is overall a good book, although I did not find it toouseful for myself or my son (he is 12 and into moviemaking).Not useful for two major reasons:- mostly (if not exclusevely) oriented towards Mac hardwareand software (and higher end software),- is for more advanced users, since it discusses semi-pro andpro video equipment, and more than trivial editing tricksand effects.Nevertheless it is entertaining and educational to read andincludes a DVD ...

I have been using a camera for many years (... has my boating/flying clips), know how FireWire Macs work, can throw a decent amateur home video together, and now with my PowerMac G4 and Apple's movie making magic apps I am begining to expand my horizons. So, I was pleasantly surprised at how much useful information I got from this book. I think the title is a bit misleading. FireWire has nothing to do with film making, IMHO. After all, that is like saying that I can become a better writer if I have DSL at home instead of a dial-up connection. (I do have DSL, and believe me, it did not make me a better writer ;-) ).So, it is more appropriate to say that is is an excellent book for people planning to use FireWire ENABLED devices to get into the art, business or hobby of making movies. (Interesting that we still call it Film making when in fact most of the stuff we do on these technologies will never see a frame of film).The book simplifies many of the mysteries that novice moviemakers may face as they not only try to learn how to use things like Final Cut Pro (or iMovie/iDVD etc. from Apple {... is a great resource)) but also figuring out what and how FireWire can do for them. This book simplifies that part quite a bit. I do most of my moviemaking with a decent consumer FireWire equipped Panasonic DV-701 and found this book helpful in deciding what level of camera to buy, for example, and why some day I will want to buy a 3-CCD camera instead of the one this camera is based on. It helped me understand what kind of techniques I could use in making movies with my equipment. It helped me understand some of the issues I would face if I wanted to make movies that would play in non-US parts of the world that use a different standard, etc. In short, I found the book extremely useful, extremely easy to read, detailed enough to be useful, not so detailed as to be boring and left unread or put on a shelf and forgotten.If you are looking into making movies, ideally with a FireWire equipped set of tools, this is a great book, but even for people not ready to invest in all that FireWire equipment yet, the book will be a useful addition to their toolset.

If you use the Macintrash and has tons of money for high-end software, this may be for you. For 99% of the world, this book doesn't give you anything you can put to use. Avoid.

Very good, educational, and informative!

Schin is a masterful calligrapher, so to get some insight into her flourishing magic is a delight! I love how her approach is accessible, fun, whimsical, yet grounded in flourishing tradition. This book is a must-have in your calligraphy arsenal! I couldn't recommend it more.

What I like about Schin Loong's approach to calligraphic drawing is that it's different from flourishing lessons from the past. It's more fun! Instructions from the 1900s about flourished drawings are often rote and mechanical. They give you "recipes" on what lines you need to make a bird. Boring! And what if I don't wanna draw those birds, now what? haha. This book encourages you to be CREATIVE and incorporate YOUR own style. I love seeing the drawings in the exercises form step by step and reading about her design choices along the way: what parts to accentuate, what lines to use to express different textures, how to elegantly fill up space in a design and how to use calligraphic lines to build up values that add depth to a drawing. It's cute, lighthearted and full of Ideas and drawings to inspire you to express yourself creatively!

Schin is well known in the calligraphic community as one that has mastered the art of the flourish. One of the things that made her standout in the crowd is her ability to create animals and faces using flourishes. This is truly a must-have for anyone who wants a simple step-by-step guide to creating feathers, birds, and flourishes.I refer to this book when starting new projects because theres always some good flourishing examples that I can pull into my piece.

SO FUN! I won’t lie, I was very intimidated to get started, but Schin makes this very approachable. The exercises are beautiful and the step by step progressions are very helpful. I’m still a bit scared to try the animals, but I’m gaining confidence with the simpler exercises first. A very fun skill to add to your calligraphy repertoire and helps with control and “eyeing” the design as well. Love love love!

this books explains really good how to draw animals with flourishes! loved it!

Calligraphic Drawing is a new art tutorial manual on the theory and application of steel nib calligraphy techniques to represent stylized animals and flourishes (see the cover). Artist Schin Loong provides a number of tips to get started, develop individual style and comfort with the process. This book was released 13th Nov 2018 on Quarto Group's Rockport imprint. It's 128 pages and available in ebook and paperback formats.Much of the information which Ms. Loong provides is available scattered on the internet or other sources, but this is one of the most efficient and worthwhile collection of tips, advice, confidence building, and good technical how-to I've seen on Spencerian flourishing and drawing.I really really appreciated that the author says several places that practice is key to mastering techniques and building confidence and expertise. More than anything else, Spencerian calligraphy is about repetition and practice. Copying has less to do with artistic 'talent' and much more to do with solid commitment to repetition. There are many hours of practice behind the 'easy looking magic' of calligraphers' YouTube videos. There is no magic wand or shortcut and Ms. Loong is clear about that.Another place that this book shines is the author's clear tutorials and troubleshooting guides. Quite often, especially for the less experienced calligrapher, you understand that it doesn't look exactly 'right' but can't pinpoint why. This book has clear troubleshooting pages with good illustrations of what to do to improve.Chapter one introduces tools and materials (and a little history) and covers about 13% of the page content. The next (vitally important) chapter has several tutorials covering strokes and practice techniques. The flourishes are built up thematically. Although this chapter only represents about 20% of the page content, it will represent the lion's share of the technique practice for the calligrapher. This chapter also ends with, hands down, the most incredibly awesome calligraphy flourished T-rex in my experience. Definitely worth the price of the book in my opinion! Chapters 3 and 4 cover specific tutorials for animals and letting with cartouches. The book ends with more tutorials and encouragement.There's a jaw dropping gallery section (ironically following the advice to try not to compare one's own work with other artists' work). It's absolutely full of some of the most breathtaking envelope flourishing that I've ever seen.One thing missing from the guide is a guide for sourcing materials and supplies, but they're readily available from online sources and local stationers. There is also no bibliography or sources for further reading, but a simple search of copyright free archives like archive.org will turn up a mountain of further reading.Well written in plain and encouraging language, this is a worthwhile addition to the calligrapher's library.Five starsDisclosure: I received an ARC at no cost from the author/publisher for review purposes.

"Calligraphic Drawing" teaches how to use a nib pen, ink, and paper to create calligraphic flourishes of animals and how to draw ornamental cartouches. The author taught how to create your own designs and provided exercises to help you master the basic strokes. It's not just about copying the author but really learning to do it for yourself. She started with advice about selecting the basic equipment and keeping it working well. She demonstrated some basic strokes and gets you to practice them (and your own variations on them) with some exercises and a simple quill flourish example.Finally, she did step-by-step instructions for drawing a pigeon (2 ways), swan, crane, rooster, jellyfish, goldfish, peacock, parrot, owl, raccoon, elephant, puppy, rabbit, fox, and zebra. She also demonstrated drawing ornamental cartouches and adding words to your animals. The author showed the steps she goes through to come up with a design--from photo to finished piece--so you can do it for yourself and in your own style.She tended to exaggerate a feature on each animal (for example, the peacock had such a huge tail that it wouldn't be able to walk), but it's very easy for each person to modify the design to one they prefer. I found this book to be very helpful and encouraging. I think it'd be useful for those experienced at calligraphy but also for those who have never picked up a nib pen before.I received an ebook review copy of this book from the publisher through NetGalley.
