Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A beautiful, haunted woman in a glittering and corrupt era takes center stage in this sizzling novel based on a true sex scandal that rocked New York City in the Roaring Twenties. Vincent T. Bugliosi, bestselling author of Helter Skelter, masterfully blends an irresistible tale of crime and passion with a richly textured re-creation of a time gone by. Brought to life are the 1920s—this century’s wildest decade, when New York was the capital of pleasure, and anything went for a price. To this city of bright lights and dark corners comes the lovely, innocent Emily Stanton, hoping for fame on the stage. What she finds is marriage to Warren Matthews, who has hooked his wagon to the gravy train of Tammany Hall’s political corruption and is riding it to the social heights. When the marriage turns into a nightmare of brutality, Emily flees with her young daughter, Jessica, only to find herself the victim of a vicious frameup masterminded by her husband to gain custody of Jessica. Robbed of her child, her reputation, and her career, a desperate Emily begins her single-minded odyssey through Manhattan’s illicit and dazzling high life to get evidence against those who framed her, so she can win her precious daughter back. Still beautiful and magnetic, she becomes a singing hostess at Texas Guinan’s notorious speakeasy. There she makes connections with the powerful likes of famed madam Polly Adler, Judge Joseph Crater, gambler Arnold Rothstein, and dapper Mayor Jimmy Walker. Finally, Emily’s battle to get back her child threatens to destroy the people who savaged her and the infamous system that spawned them. And as the decade’s frenzy mounts to its explosive climax, Emily’s very life reaches its moment of decision in a sensational murder trial that rips the last shred of secrecy from a revelation so shocking, it will shake even this blase city to its core. With this riveting human drama, Vincent Bugliosi evokes a legendary era and its glamorous and decadent underworld of speakeasies and bootleg gin, mobsters and flappers—a time and way of life that never ceases to fascinate.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: My interest in USS Howorth originated during my thirty-three months of duty in the Pacific Fleet destroyer Hamner, named after Howorth's gunnery officer killed at Okinawa, Lieutenant Henry R. "Pete" Hamner. His legacy jncluded the Reader's Digest subscriptions his mother presented each year to the wardroom and crew. Later, as executive officer in the hydrofoil Plainview, exasperated by the endless stream of logs and records demanded by higher authorities, I peevishly tested the navy's record system and wrote away for information on Lieutenant Hamner and Howorth. I was surprised by the magnitude of the material documenting Howorth's Pacific War, ranging from hourly barometric readings and seawater injection temperatures to ammunition effectiveness reports.

Download or read book Code of the West written by Aaron Latham and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2001-07-12 with total page 496 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this magical and epic novel, the celebrated author of Urban Cowboy delivers a Texas-size love story that transplants the legend of Arthur, Guinevere, Lancelot, and Merlin alive and well to the Old West -- to stunning effect. Code of the West begins when Jimmy Goodnight, a young, earnest cowhand, recovering from having been brutally abducted by Comanches who slaughtered his family, sets his life on a new and surprising course by visiting a county fair. There he agrees to try to pull out an ax that has been deeply imbedded in an anvil and that has defied the efforts of the strongest men in Texas. Jimmy's astonishing and triumphant achievement at the fair changes his life. With the prize money he follows his dream, recruits cowboys, puts together a herd of cattle, and drives them across the plains to a deep canyon, where he intends to make his own private kingdom. Goodnight's luck and courage bring him an early and gratifying success. Above all, they bring him the comradeship of his men, and the friendship of a lifetime, when he meets Jack Loving, who is everything Jimmy Goodnight isn't -- handsome, graceful, a naturally gifted horseman, and a great dancer. Together, Goodnight and Loving make a formidable team, and their relationship is one of complete trust, the bedrock on which Goodnight's growing empire rests, on a seemingly solid foundation -- until a woman appears with whom both men fall in love. All goes well until Goodnight makes a fearful, vengeful, and unforgiving enemy, takes on an Eastern big businessman as a partner -- and falls in love with his beautiful daughter Revelie, and fails to notice the growing mutual attraction bet-ween Revelie and Loving... Compulsively readable, cleverly interweaving Western history (Loving and Goodnight are both based on real people in the historical West) and Arthurian legend, Code of the West is a powerful love story, a sweeping adventure, a great "Western" -- and just the kind of unexpected, unusual, and hugely successful work of fiction that has sealed Aaron Latham's reputation.

Book excerpt: On a hot summer's night, in June 1985, in one of the most emotionally charged fights of all time, Barry McGuigan beat Eusebio Pedroza to become the featherweight champion of the world. An epic battle that lasted a full 15 rounds, it remains one of sport's greatest moments - watched by 27,000 spectators ringside and by a further 20 million on television around the world. Raised in the border town of Clones, Co. Monaghan, at the height of the troubles, Barry McGuigan united people across sectarian and religious divides during a difficult time in the country's political history. A Catholic, Barry married his Protestant childhood sweetheart, Sandra in 1981. An Irishman, he fought for the British title, wearing boxing shorts in the colours of the United Nation's Flag of Peace - and in place of a national anthem his musician father, Pat McGuigan would often sing a heartfelt rendition of 'Danny Boy' before a fight. Engaging and intelligent, McGuigan is a renowned and revered figure in the boxing world and beyond. In this candid autobiography, The Clones Cyclone shares his stories of extraordinary professional triumph and devastating personal tragedy.
