cavalcade of america item description cavalcade of america was a radio show between 1935 and 1953, that pioneered the use of anthology drama for company voice advertising. the show was originally broadcast by columbia broadcast system (cbs) and was sponsored by the dupont company. cavalcade of america documented historical events using stories of individual courage, individual initiative and achievement. this was consistent with dupont s overall conservative philosophy and legacy as an american company dating back to 1802. the company s motto maker of better things for better living through chemistry was read at the beginning of each show, and the show emphasized humanitarian progress, particularly improvements in the lives of women, often through technological innovation. the show was started as part of a successful campaign to reinvigorate dupont. in the early 1930s the nye committee investigations, had concluded that dupont had made a fortune profiteering in world war i. the company stood accused of encouraging an arms race between world war i enemies, after being heavily subsidized by the allies to increase black powder production. the negative effects of the investigation left the company demoralized, directionless and with a horrible corporate image in the middle of the great depression. for 18 years prior to cavalcade of america, dupont had advertised on radio to inform the public what dupont did for a living. its products were primarily not for public consumption, so there was no purpose in promoting them through advertising. as a solution to dupont s troubles, roy durstine then creative director of batten, barton, durstine & osborn proposed the creation and sponsorship of cavalcade of america using the company motto. this was to be an important element in the successful re branding of dupont as an american legacy engaged in making products for the well being of americans and humanity in general. dupont stipulated several topics would be taboo on the show such as gun fire of any kind, which attracted writers such as norman rosten and arthur miller who had signed the oxford pledge while at university of michigan. the show was also able to attract some fairly prominent writers of the time such as maxwell anderson, stephen vincent bent, carl sandburg and robert sherwood to write episodes. the yale university historian frank monaghan advised to ensure that scripts were historically accurate. this collection of cavalcade of america shows features 735 shows on 8 cds. each episode is presented in the .mp3 format. there are many hours of entertaining cavalcade of america programs. the cds are labeled and provided in highly protective jewel cases. a list of the programs on the disc as well as the date the program originally aired (if known) is also provided. please make sure your equipment will play mp3 formatted files before purchasing this item. it is ultimately the responsibility of the buyer to ensure that his or her equipment is compatible with the mp3 format. a note concerning sound quality. the sound quality for the shows in this collection is very good to good. it is difficult to find perfect recordings from the golden age of radio due to the equipment used for recording and the fact that many of the recordings were made 60, 70 or even 80 years ago. episode listing for the cavalcade of

Description #2 by Exotic India Art:

Travel - Preface It is said that India is a continent more than a country. There is much merit to that, if all the components that go the making of history, as well as geography, are considered. A vigorous civilisation that has spanned at least 4500 years is bound to have left monumental marks in its march. And if UNESCO's list of 830 World Heritage Properties is any criteria to go by, the fact that 26 of these are in India ? less than those of only six other countries ? is tangible proof of the creative genius, and industry of this ancient land's people, and of the gifts bestowed on it by nature. Man-made wonders in this book are selected from a vast matrix of religious and secular genres and styles of architecture and art, the one common denominator being that they are frozen in time and space, except for two unique train journeys. Thus the showcase, with the primaeval lines of Bhimbetka's prehistoric rock art at o ne end the stunning curves of the modern Lotus Temple at the other, includes palaces, paintings and public places, mosques, museums and mansions; citadels, cathedrals and carved caves, temples, tombs and towers; sprawling cities and solemn stupas. In the natural section and wonders from the country's astoundingly varied landscapes. Rising from the white beach sands of Lakshadweep islands in the Arabian Sea to the white Himalayan snows of Mt. Kanchenjunga, the third highest peak in world, these are scattered across a host of habitats including torrential streams and calm rivers, desolate deserts and teeming wetlands, rolling hills and misty mountains, coral reefs and jagged cliffs, and forests ranging from tropical to alpine, within live amazing creatures of the wild, including, of course, the majestic tiger. Through the pages of this book, written inlucid language and splashed with lavish photographs, come take a journey into the wonder that is India. From the Jacket 100 WONDER OF India The finest treasures of civilisation and nature Travellers in ancient times marvelled at seven man made wonders located in various countries bordering on the Mediterranean. Over hundreds of years since then, civilisations have risen and declined, the world has been built and rebuilt, and many more works of human genius lie scattered across geographies and eras. Exploration and discovery has revealed more of nature's wonders too, that stretch and humble human imagination. India, with an area of well over three million square kilometers, is a continent within a continent. Within the folds of an astounding 5000-year-old history and vast multitude of landscapes that include the world's highest mountains, great rivers, long coastlines, deserts and dense forests, is an awesome legacy of man-made and natural wonders-some legendary for long, others no less magnificent but not so well known. Each is described with details of history and brought to life with vivid colour images. Also included is useful information for travelers, all of which blend to make this an attractive book for history buffs, art lovers, nature enthusiasts and all those who wants to be acquainted with India's magnificent wonders. Back of the Book 100 WONDER OF India The finest treasures of civilisation and nature Beginning with the 12000 year old cave paintings of Bhimbetka, up the Bah'ai House of worship, a blinding masterpiece of 20th century engineering and design, the wealth of creative genius, brilliant skill and endeavour of its people are evident in India's man-made wonders. Between the soaring medieval temples of the South and dramatically perched Buddhist monasteries of the North; the uniquely ornamented stepwells of the West and the grand Victoria Memorial, a symbol of British supremacy in the East, lie massive forts, fairy-tale palaces, tombs of Sultans, ruined ancient cities, statuesque cathedrals, and of course, the resplendent Taj Mahal. Along with these are the wonders bestowed on India by nature. In a country blessed with astoundingly diverse ecology and terrain, these range from the mighty Himalayan peaks of Nanda Devi and Kanchenjunga to the elephant-inhabited lush tropical forests of Periyar, and from the pristine-white island beaches of Lakshadweep to the tiger-infested delta of two legendary rivers: the Ganga and the Brahmaputra. Showcased in this book, in a feast of lavish colour photography and lucid text, are 100 fabulous destinations that evoke the wonder that is India. Contents MAN MADE Muted colour of peace and tranquilityThe Ajanta murals are the finest examples of early Indian art 8 A Sufi shrine with a healing touch Chishti's Dargah at Ajmer is revered the world over10 A stalagmite of staggering proportions The cone of ice in Amarnath Cave waxes and wanes with the moon 12 Ashoka the Great's engraved ideology Rock edicts and pillars spread his message of peace14 An ode to the Bah'ai Faith The Lotus Temple is nine-sided expression of worship16 The baroque Basilica of Bom Jesus
