HOT ROD Mavericks recounts the legendary builders, racers, manufacturers, and customizers who made hot rods the quintessential American automobiles.

Produced in cooperation with HOT ROD magazine, HOT&nbsp;ROD Mavericks takes you on a rollicking look back on more than a century of trailblazers, risk-takers, hell-raisers, and forward-thinkers. No aspect of automobile culture embodies the DIY spirit like hot rodding. From prewar pressed steel and milled four-bangers to modern machined billet and 800-hp behemoths, the story of hot rodding has been the story of can-do iconoclasts who did for themselves what Detroit wouldn’t do for them. Longtime hot rod and custom car historian Tony Thacker crafts an illustrated history that leaves no camshaft unturned. Just some of the 50-plus movers and shakers profiled are: <ul><li>Pioneers of the speed equipment industry like Barney Navarro, Ed “Isky” Iskendarian, and Vic Edelbrock</li><li>Postwar racers and builders Alex Xydias, Mickey Thompson, and Ak Miller</li><li>Quarter-mile dragstrip heroes such as “TV” Tommy Ivo, “Big Daddy” Don Garlits, and Shirley “Cha-Cha” Muldowney</li><li>Kustom kulture icons Dean Jeffries, Ed “Big Daddy” Roth, Von Dutch, Sam and George Barris, and Gene Winfield</li></ul> Thacker also includes latter-day innovators who kept hot rodding a going concern, like Pete &amp; Jake, Boyd Coddington, and Chip Foose.&nbsp;HOT ROD Mavericks is accompanied by exceptional images sourced from Motor Trend Group’s archives at The Petersen Automotive Museum.&nbsp; Celebrate&nbsp;the rebels who revolutionized hot rodding with this authoritative and visually engaging history.

Drawing upon the span of American history from the seventeenth century to the present, Bret Carroll explores masculinity's importance as a leitmotif to understand a broad range of human relations. He argues that throughout our history masculinity has been a powerful force across geographical, racial, ethnic, and class lines.

In 1946 and 1948, James Conway Davies published volumes one and two of his Episcopal Acts and Cognate Documents Relating to Welsh Dioceses 1066-1272. A notice in the front of volume two indicates that volume three - promised for publication in 1950/1 but never released - would have contained inter alia the acts of the dioceses of Bangor and St Asaph and an index of the acts contained in all three volumes. The editor left behind a massive card index and the galley proofs of the acts of St Asaph and Bangor, and it is these that form the basis of the present volume. It therefore completes what is both a monumental study on and source of information for the Church in medieval Wales.

In 1946 and 1948, James Conway Davies published volumes one and two of his Episcopal Acts and Cognate Documents Relating to Welsh Dioceses 1066-1272. These volumes included over 400 pages of introduction (on such topics as sources, the Norman conquest and its impact on the church in Wales, the formation of the bishoprics, diocesan boundaries, the status of St Davids, the structure of the church, etc.) and in calendar form the acts of the dioceses of St Davids and Llandaff. A notice in the front of volume two indicates that volume three would have contained inter alia the acts of the dioceses of Bangor and St Asaph and an index of the acts contained in all three volumes. Volume three was promised for publication in 1950/1, but for some reason never saw the light of day. The editor left behind a massive card index and the galley proofs of the acts of St Asaph and Bangor and it is these that form the basis of the present volume. It therefore completes what is both a monumental study on and source of information for the Church in medieval Wales.
