"In a remarkable tour de force of research, Shelley Pearen reveals the innermost thoughts of the people who assembled 150 years ago to negotiate the future of Manitoulin Island, the world's largest freshwater island. Working with long forgotten letters, reports and accounts written in English, French and Ojibwe. Pearen brings to life the people and events of 1861-63 through the actual words spoken and written by four key participants: William McDougall, head of the government's Indian Affairs department; Sasso Itawashkash, chief of the Sheshegwaning Anishinaabeg; Jean-Pierre Choné, Jesuit priest at the Holy Cross Roman Catholic Mission in Wikwemikong; and Peter Jacobs, Church of England missionary in Manitowaning, and himself Anishinaabe. For the first time, each of these players is given the stage to explain his own understanding of what actually happened before, during and after the signing of the still-contentious Great Manitoulin Island treaty of 1862. These four voices reveal fascinating personal stories of strengths and frailties."-- from back cover.

In his first book since the enormously popular Great Singers on Great Singing, the distinguished Metropolitan Opera basso Jerome Hines here provides a wealth of new information and advice for all those who have embarked on - or plan to embark on - a serious singing career. From basic information on how the head and body combine to produce vocal sound, he goes on to analyze the "four voices" encompassed by the singer's one voice, always explaining how through proper technique and training that voice can achieve its ultimate in power, grace and beauty. On another level, Mr. Hines guides the singer through the labyrinth of choosing the right teacher, shows how physical and emotional health and care of the body relate to the vocal apparatus and considers such diverse matters as stage fright, dealing with conductors and managers and that final challenge - facing the critics.
