Book excerpt: At the height of Prohibition, Al Capone loomed large as Public Enemy Number One: his multimillion-dollar Chicago Outfit dominated organized crime, and law enforcement was powerless to stop him. But then came the fall: a legal noose tightened by the FBI, a conviction on tax evasion, a stint in Alcatraz. After his release, he returned to his family in Miami a much diminished man, living quietly until the ravages of his neurosyphilis took their final toll. Our shared fascination with Capone endures in countless novels and movies, but the man behind the legend has remained a mystery. Now, through rigorous research and exclusive access to Capone’s family, National Book Award–winning biographer Deirdre Bair cuts through the mythology, uncovering a complex character who was flawed and cruel but also capable of nobility. At once intimate and iconoclastic, Al Capone gives us the definitive account of a quintessentially American figure.

While enrolled as one of the first black scholarship students recruited to Antioch College, she became politically and socially active and committed to the peace movement. As a graduate student at the New England Conservatory of Music, determined to pursue her own career as a concert singer, she met Martin Luther King Jr., a Baptist minister insistent that his wife stay home with the children.

As a widow and single mother of four, she worked tirelessly to found and develop The King Center as a citadel for world peace, lobbied for fifteen years for the US national holiday in honor of her husband, championed for women's, workers' and gay rights and was a powerful international voice for nonviolence, freedom and human dignity.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The morning sun cast a golden hue over the quaint village, its rays gently coaxing the sleepy hamlet to life. Elizabeth Bennett, with her hair tied back in a simple ribbon, stood by the open window, watching the world awaken. The early spring air was still crisp, carrying the promise of warmer days. As the village stirred, Elizabeth's mind wandered to the letter that lay unopened on the mantelpiece. It had arrived the day before, its seal unbroken, its contents a mystery. Her heart fluttered with a mix of anticipation and trepidation. The handwriting was unmistakably that of James, her childhood friend who had left for the city years ago to pursue his dreams. She sighed, her thoughts drifting back to their last encounter. It had been a bittersweet farewell, filled with unspoken words and unacknowledged feelings. Since then, their communication had been sporadic, confined to brief letters and the occasional, carefully-worded note. Turning away from the window, Elizabeth finally gathered the courage to break the seal. The letter unfolded easily, revealing James's familiar script. His words were warm, recounting his life in the city, his successes, and his challenges. But as she read on, a different tone emerged, one that spoke of longing and reflection.

Download or read book Love s Legacy written by Hardcover and published by . This book was released on 2021-02 with total page 155 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work of academic scholarship, told in first person as an investigative mystery, explores Chateaubriand's secret sponsorship of the author's great-great-grandfather, Thomas Fallon, to a four-year elite education at a prestigious French Royal Academy. Chateaubriand, considered the founder of French romantic literature, likely believed he was the boy's father. The boy's mother, Mary Neale Fallon, an Irish woman who surely rescued Chateaubriand in his hour of need while in exile in London, thereby made possible the launch of his writing career. In the course of uncovering aspects of Chateaubriand's hidden life, as disguised in his memoirs and elsewhere, this genealogical investigation, rendered largely as a memoir, explores aspects of 19th century love and romance; intergenerational family oral history; and the value of inheriting, through one means or another, an enduring legacy of love.--Publisher.

Download or read book The Modern Lovers The Modern Lovers written by Sean L. Maloney and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2017-02-09 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the "War on Hippies" to the Great Rock 'n' Roll Swindle, the story of Modern Lovers is a high octane tale of Brutalist architecture, rock 'n' roll ambition and the struggle for identity in a changing world. One of punk rock's foundational documents, the archetype for indie obsession and all but disowned by its author, The Modern Lovers was an album doomed by its own coolness from day one. Powered by the two-chord wonder “Roadrunner” and its proclamation that “I'm in love with rock 'n' roll,”The Modern Lovers is the essential document of American alienation, an escape route from the cultural wasteland of postwar suburbia. The Modern Lovers is the bridge connecting the Velvet Underground and the Sex Pistols; they were peers of the New York Dolls and friends with Gram Parsons and they would splinter into Talking Heads, The Cars, and The Real Kids. But The Modern Lovers was never meant to be an album. A collection of demos, recorded in fits and starts as Jonathan Richman and his band negotiate modernity and the music industry. It is a collection of songs about a city and a society in flux, grappling with ancient corruptions and bright-eyed idealism. Richman observes a city all but abandoned by adults, ravaged by white flight and urban renewal, veering towards anarchy as old world social moors collide with new attitudes. It is a city stands in stark contrast to the the ranchstyle bedroom community where he was raised. All of these conflicts are churned through Richman's intellectual acuity and emotional unrest to create one of the 20th century's most enduring documents of post-adolescent malaise.
