Introduces young readers to six of the extraordinary people designated by the Japanese as Living National Treasures -- masters who had devoted their lives to traditional crafts and the performing arts. Each was provided with grants to support his or her lifelong work to train apprentices and to preserve the traditional arts and crafts. Shows a yuzen kimono dyer, bamboo weaver, bunraku puppet master, sword maker, noh actor, and potter. The text explains what each master does, how he was trained, and what the art or craft means to him. Stunning photos show the masters at work and the remarkable crafts they produce, or, in the case of the noh actor and puppet master, performing on stage.

This illustrated text celebrates a range of specialist crafts practised all over the country. From the more familiar butler and book binder to reed harvester, coppicer, duck breeder and Lord's dinner lady, it seeks to capture the atmosphere of Britain away from the fast pace of urban life. The Lord's dinner lady, for example, has worked at the MCC since 1961, and has received an honorary MBE for her services to cricket and cricketers. She admits to keeping the men in line because she likes the discipline, and has fed her appreciative guests with roast dinners and carbohydrate-rich teas for three decades. Other crafts have been laboriously learned and are painstakingly practised, and some of these cases record the last few practitioners of certain crafts. It includes a comprehensive index of addresses and phone numbers of the treasures and relevant craft organizations.

The National Park Service, created in 1916 and now over one hundred years old, has become an immensely popular concept with visitation equal to the national population of the United States every year. Along the way, the Service has picked up a few issues and stresses that endanger the mission of the NPS. Its unique mission is to preserve and protect America's significant natural, cultural, and historical areas for future generations in an unencumbered condition. The areas that are America's Living National Treasures. Those issues need to be addressed to allow the National Park Service to uphold its mission and continue to protect our National Treasures for future generations. This book is dedicated to the identification of some of those issues and presents possible solutions, by capturing the author's experiences over his 35 year career, depicting what working for the Service entails and its challenges. Once the reader has a better feel for work of the National Park Service, there are specific sections dealing with the author's concerns for the future and the changes needed today to bring the Service back to its prime.

The telling will make you feel as though you are fortunate enough to sit in the presence of the Cherokee artists, who intimately share the story of themselves, of their art, who their family was, how they came to be artists, who and what influenced them, and how their art reflects who they are as Cherokee people. They are the Cherokee National Treasures.
