Download or read book Tin Soldiers written by David Chadwick and published by Troubador Publishing Ltd. This book was released on 2023-06-01 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Combat veteran Wat Tyler resumes his job as a New York crime reporter, but can’t escape the shadow of Vietnam – or allegations of cowardice. His first newspaper assignment reveals a high-level cover-up following the fatal shootings by National Guardsmen of three civilians at an anti-war protest. Powerful interests are determined to stop Tyler’s investigation at any cost – especially when he links the campus homicides to the murder of three scientists accused of using Vietnam veterans as lab rats. As Tyler and criminal attorney JoBeth Medlock delve deeper into the paranoid psyche of Nixon’s America, it becomes clear that strings are being pulled in places they would never have imagined. Inspired by real events at Kent State University, Ohio in May 1970, this fast-paced and immersive crime novel powerfully evokes America during the Vietnam War period of US history.
Download or read book Not a Happy Camper written by Mindy Schneider and published by Open Road + Grove/Atlantic. This book was released on 2008-05-20 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A “hilarious” memoir of the author’s terrible, and wonderful, summer at a Maine sleepaway camp in 1974 (The Wall Street Journal). For eight unforgettable weeks at Camp Kin-a-Hurra, thirteen-year-old Mindy Schneider and her eccentric band of friends—including Autumn Evening Schwartz, the daughter of hippies, who communicates with the dead, and the sleep-dancing bibliophile Betty Gilbert—keep busy feuding in color wars, failing at sports, and uncovering their camp’s hidden past. As Mindy focuses on landing the perfect boyfriend and longs for her first kiss, she unexpectedly stumbles across something infinitely grander: herself. “Set in what now seems an almost impossibly innocent time, the 1970s, this sweet tale takes a nostalgic look back at the experience of attending sleepaway camp through the eyes of a 13-year-old Jewish girl . . . Schneider succeeds in provoking gentle flashbacks to a simpler shared time of teenage angst and hormone surges, before cable television, all recalled in a humorous tone.” —Publishers Weekly “Charming and hilarious . . . Captures both the awkwardness and the magic of that age.” —Jen Lancaster
Download or read book Wayfaring Stranger written by Burl Ives and published by Pickle Partners Publishing. This book was released on 2017-06-28 with total page 309 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1948, this autobiography from Burl Ives, whom Carl Sandberg calls “the greatest folk ballad singer of them all,” is as fresh and wholesome as a summer’s breeze out of an Illinois cornfield. His ballads have long been an authentic expression of his land and its people—songs his grandmother taught him in the Midwestern farm country, songs remembered by old-timers in small towns all over the land, songs he heard hobos singing—songs we have come to know and love. In Wayfaring Stranger, writing in the stirring imaginative language of the ballad, Burt Ives tells of a night spent in a haystack with a pig, and of a brief fight with a railroad cop on top of a boxcar. He hitched a ride with Al Capone’s master bootlegger; he barely escaped the clutches of an old maid in Maine; he fell in love on a Great Lakes steamer; he played for evangelists and politicians; in speakeasies and public parks. Always he listened to the people, and he learned their songs. Anywhere he could get an audience, he sang his ballads: Barbara Allen, The Riddle Song, Fair Eleanor, Old Smokey, Silver Dagger, Foggy Foggy Dew. Now in Wayfaring Stranger, he has written his own story—as warm and appealing as the songs he sings. “It’s a fine book, warm, and full-bided, like Burl himself. Burl gives the reader the combination which is in everything he sings: a sense of dignity without pretentiousness, of simplicity without sentimentality. He makes the folk feeling richly alive. Some of his little character sketches remind me of the unforgettable etchings in Sherwood Anderson’s Winesburg. In short, Burl tells stories just the way he plays and sings—naturally, unaffectedly, poignantly.”—Louis Untermeyer
Download or read book Dylan on Dylan written by Jeff Burger and published by Chicago Review Press. This book was released on 2018-05-01 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dylan can be as evasive and abstruse as he is witty; he can be cranky and sarcastic. But in the right moments, he offers candid, revealing commentary about his groundbreaking music and creative process. Dylan on Dylan is an authoritative, chronologically arranged anthology of interviews, speeches and press conferences, as well as excerpts from nearly a hundred additional Q&As spanning Dylan's entire career. The material comes from reknowned publications like Rolling Stone and from obscure periodicals like Minnesota Daily, a student newspaper at Dylan's alma mater. Interviewers include some of the top music journalists of our time, such as Robert Love and Mikal Gilmore, as well as musicians like Pete Seeger and Happy Traum. Introductions put each piece in context and, in many cases, include the interviewer's reminiscences about the encounter.
Download or read book Marshmallow World written by Marc Spitz and published by Digitature. This book was released on 2012-04-10 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A short, holiday-themed play takes place entirely in a church basement shortly before Christmas; a lonely, intense time of the year for some. During a meeting of a special support group for people with pop music related ailments, three regulars welcome a new member, a Jew with a secret penchant for Christmas songs. Together they share and try to manage their rock related "issues." "Marc Spitz is one of my favorite playwrights; I have been to at least half of his dozen plays, and I have never been disappointed. He knows how to shake people up; make them laugh, gasp and gag. Expect bad taste, bad language, snappy dialogue, theatrical surprises and maybe something that really grosses you out." -Tom Murrin, Paper Magazine
Download or read book Primate Behavior written by Sarah Lindsay and published by Grove Press. This book was released on 1997 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Primate Behavior is the product of a wild and exhilarating imagination, ranging wide across an abundant imaginary landscape. Sarah Lindsay writes of space migration and the cave paintings of 35,000 B.C. Her poems speak from the perspective of an embalmed mummy and detail the adventures and misadventures of nineteenth-century explorers. Lindsay investigates the world as no one has yet had the daring and inspiration to do, reanimating history and folk legend and setting in motion curious new worlds that speak eccentrically, but unmistakably to our own."--Back cover.

Download or read book With Tongue written by James Sarver and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2017-08-09 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Companion volume to "Words Fail Me," the #1 best-selling book of humor in Kazakhstan for three days running. If you enjoyed James E. Sarver's subtle but devastating wit in the first book, you will probably not enjoy this second book all that much, as he lays off the wit and goes more for the easy laughs. Lots of bodily function jokes and people hitting other people in special places. It's still kind of funny, mind you, but a very different book than "Words Fail Me." Remember how "Superman III" tried so hard to be funny, with Richard Pryor and everything? It's kinda like that.
