This book explores the history of reggae in modern Britain from the
time it emerged as a cultural force in the 1970s. As basslines from
Jamaica reverberated across the Atlantic, so they were received and
transmitted by the UK's Afro-Caribbean community. From roots to
lovers' rock, from deejays harnessing the dancehall crowd to dub
poets reporting back from the socio-economic front line, British
reggae soundtracked the inner-city experience of black youth. In
time, reggae's influence permeated the wider culture, informing the
sounds and the language of popular music whilst also retaining a
connection to the street-level sound systems, clubs and centres
that provided space to create, protest and innovate. This book is
therefore a testament to struggle and ingenuity, a collection of
essays tracing reggae's importance to both the culture and the
politics of late twentieth and early twenty-first century Britain.
Essential aspects about the prehistory, history, geography, and
architecture of the Inland Pacific Northwest are presented here in
one succinct volume. This landmark collection features essays by
noted national and regional scholars, such as Donald W. Meinig,
Carlos A. Schwantes, Henry Matthews, Clifford E. Trafzer, and
Harvey S. Rice. Spokane and the Inland Empire outlines the region's
historical geographic systems, Palouse tribal history,
characteristics of prehistoric Plateau Indian dwellings, a century
of Columbia Plateau agriculture, Spokane's bitter labor disputes
that occurred prior to America's entry into World War I, the
exceptional architecture of Spokane's Kirtland Cutter, and more.
This new edition has been revised from the original volume
published in 1991. Extensive illustrations supplement the text.
