Download or read book Punks in Peoria written by Jonathan Wright and published by University of Illinois Press. This book was released on 2021-06-15 with total page 339 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Punk rock culture in a preeminently average town Synonymous with American mediocrity, Peoria was fertile ground for the boredom- and anger-fueled fury of punk rock. Jonathan Wright and Dawson Barrett explore the do-it-yourself scene built by Peoria punks, performers, and scenesters in the 1980s and 1990s. From fanzines to indie record shops to renting the VFW hall for an all-ages show, Peoria's punk culture reflected the movement elsewhere, but the city's conservatism and industrial decline offered a richer-than-usual target environment for rebellion. Eyewitness accounts take readers into hangouts and long-lost venues, while interviews with the people who were there trace the ever-changing scene and varied fortunes of local legends like Caustic Defiance, Dollface, and Planes Mistaken for Stars. What emerges is a sympathetic portrait of a youth culture in search of entertainment but just as hungry for community—the shared sense of otherness that, even for one night only, could unite outsiders and discontents under the banner of music. A raucous look at a small-city underground, Punks in Peoria takes readers off the beaten track to reveal the punk rock life as lived in Anytown, U.S.A.

Book excerpt: Daxton Riley, a stop-at-nothing fearless CIA agent, has been called in to fight the United States' most deadly attack by terrorists. It is just ten days until Veteran's Day on November 11, 2011, and Washington is honoring the men and women who have fought in all wars in the history of the United States. Despite all the buzz going on, Daxton Riley senses the trouble the nation is about to face if he doesn't stop it. All the CIA intelligence has pointed to a rip-roaring terrorist attack on our homeland, and it's up to Riley to stop them. Daxton leaves immediately for the Middle East, where he leads a Special Forces crew on a raid in a small town. Their main target is al Qaeda, as that is where most of the intelligence chatter is coming from. They discover maps, notes, computers, files, passports and airline tickets. Some of the most disturbing were eleven bills of lading for eleven different cities that point to a major nuke attack on the United States. Daxton quickly relays the information he has discovered back to CIA headquarters, and a nuclear team scurries to the scene. By the end of the next day, all the bombs had been located and disarmed, stopping the immediate danger. Or had they?

Download or read book GB84 written by David Peace and published by Melville House. This book was released on 2014-11-04 with total page 576 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Never before published in the U.S., GB84 will be launched in 2014 alongside two other novels by David Peace: The Damned Utd and Red or Dead In taut and gripping prose that often feels like the relentless text of a surveillance report, GB84 tells the story of the British coal miner’s strike of 1984—including the actual bombings, riots and protests that brought the country to the brink of civil war. Called by its author “fiction based on fact,” the book depicts a real-life 1984 more violently dystopian than even Orwell imagined. Slowly starving strikers find themselves pitted against a prime minister—Margaret Thatcher—determined to crush them . . . a police force willing to use infiltration and violence to achieve her will . . . and equally hungry scabs who need a job . . . Mixing real events and characters with the voices of the increasingly desperate strikers, the book becomes a stirring saga of courage against overwhelmingly sinister forces, and paints a searing and haunting portrait of events that changed the course of British history.

Download or read book Bobby March Will Live Forever written by Alan Parks and published by Europa Editions. This book was released on 2021-04-06 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this “fascinating and dangerous” Scottish noir, a detective scours Glasgow’s gritty streets for two missing teens in the wake of a rock star’s death (The Times, Book of the Month, UK). July 1973. The Glasgow drug trade is booming and Bobby March, the city’s own rock star hero, has just overdosed in a central hotel. But even that tragedy competes for headlines with the story of a thirteen-year-old girl who’s gone missing. As Det. Harry McCoy knows only too well, every hour that goes by makes the Alice Kelly case more of a lost cause. Meanwhile, the niece of McCoy’s boss has fallen in with a bad crowd and when she goes missing, McCoy is asked—off the books—to find her. McCoy has a hunch that there’s a connection between these events. But time to prove it is running out, the papers are out for blood, and the department wants results fast. Justice must be served. The third novel in the acclaimed Harry McCoy series combines a “breathless and tense retro crime caper” with a pitch-perfect depiction of 1970s Glasgow—its music, hard men, political infighting, class divisions, and the moral questions at its heart (The Sun, UK).
