Download or read book The Love Machine written by Jacqueline Susann and published by Tiger LLC. This book was released on 2015-11-01 with total page 686 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The spectacular bestseller from the author of VALLEY OF THE DOLLS. In a time when steak, vodka, and Benzedrine were the three main staples of a healthy diet, when high-powered executives called each other “baby” and movie stars wore wigs to bed, network tycoons had a name for the TV set: they called it “the love machine.” But to supermodel Amanda, socialite Judith and journalist Maggie, “the love machine” meant something else: Robin Stone, “a TV-network titan around whom women flutter like so many moths…The novel deals with his rise and fall as he makes the international sex scene (orgying in London, transvestiting in Hamburg), drinks unlimited quantities and checks out the latest Nielsens.”—Newsweek “I READ IT IN ONE GREEDY GULP, ENJOYING EVERY MINUTE.”—Liz Smith “[Susann’s] pulp poetry resonates to this day. WITH HER FORMULA OF SEX, DRUGS, AND SHOW BUSINESS, Susann didn’t so much capture the tenor of her times as she did predict the Zeitgeist of ours.”—Detour

Book excerpt: About the Book Convinced it's a trap to lure him into the open, Jake can't resist Callie. With his jaded worldview and dark sense of humor, he rushes back to the States. They've been trying to kill him for over fifteen years, and as long as those who want Jake dead still breathe, his friends Curt, Cash and Callie are in grave danger. A firsthand witness to the Oklahoma City Bombing Coverup, some in the Deep State's shadow government are on a mission to bury Jake and what he knows by any means necessary. It's the same reason they executed Jake's old schoolmate Timmy McVeigh faster than the speed of truth - dead men don't talk. These brutal government assassins seek to destroy Jake's reputation and then take his life. Collateral damage is inconsequential. With Jake in the ground, they're expecting to finally retire with a full-government pension, a mission-completion bonus and the status of heroes. But first, they'll need to get Jake Charm. It did not suddenly become easy. ''An excellent delivery of suspense, shock and thrill. A book you can't put down"- Peter Vazquez, the president of the Frederick Douglass Foundation of New York. About the Author Matt Kreutz is an independent money manager and retirement planner, who also helps folks with their life insurance and Medicare insurance needs. He's a husband, father and grandfather, a farmer, a hunter, a BBQ-pit master, a woodworking craftsman and an all-around America-loving patriot.

Download or read book Separate Games written by David K. Wiggins and published by University of Arkansas Press. This book was released on 2016-11-01 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The hardening of racial lines during the first half of the twentieth century eliminated almost all African Americans from white organized sports, forcing black athletes to form their own teams, organizations, and events. This separate sporting culture, explored in the twelve essays included here, comprised much more than athletic competition; these "separate games" provided examples of black enterprise and black self-help and showed the importance of agency and the quest for racial uplift in a country fraught with racialist thinking and discrimination.
Download or read book Sunburn Lake written by Tom De Haven and published by Viking Adult. This book was released on 1988 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These three novels are thematically linked first-person narratives set at 50-year intervals. Clap Hands! Here Comes Charley charts the rueful comic journeys of a young, neurotic traveling salesman, the recalcitrant abandoned nephew in his care and a one-time torch singer who offers the reluctant uncle a glimmer of romance. Another singer, Franny Tolentino, now a Jersey City real-estate entrepreneur, narrates the funny He's All Mine, in which she takes a clear-eyed look back at her 15 minutes of fame as lead vocalist for the Frantastics two decades before. The most ambitious and troublesome novella, Where We'll Never Grow Old, occurs in the year 2037, and depicts the budding friendship of Joy and Tragedy, two teenagers in a shattered civilization afflicted by a plague so overpowering that their early deaths are all but assured.
Download or read book Crying the News written by Vincent DiGirolamo and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2019-08-05 with total page 698 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Benjamin Franklin to Ragged Dick to Jack Kelly, hero of the Disney musical Newsies, newsboys have long intrigued Americans as symbols of struggle and achievement. But what do we really know about the children who hawked and delivered newspapers in American cities and towns? Who were they? What was their life like? And how important was their work to the development of a free press, the survival of poor families, and the shaping of their own attitudes, values and beliefs? Crying the News: A History of America's Newsboys offers an epic retelling of the American experience from the perspective of its most unshushable creation. It is the first book to place newsboys at the center of American history, analyzing their inseparable role as economic actors and cultural symbols in the creation of print capitalism, popular democracy, and national character. DiGirolamo's sweeping narrative traces the shifting fortunes of these "little merchants" over a century of war and peace, prosperity and depression, exploitation and reform, chronicling their exploits in every region of the country, as well as on the railroads that linked them. While the book focuses mainly on boys in the trade, it also examines the experience of girls and grown-ups, the elderly and disabled, blacks and whites, immigrants and natives. Based on a wealth of primary sources, Crying the News uncovers the existence of scores of newsboy strikes and protests. The book reveals the central role of newsboys in the development of corporate welfare schemes, scientific management practices, and employee liability laws. It argues that the newspaper industry exerted a formative yet overlooked influence on working-class youth that is essential to our understanding of American childhood, labor, journalism, and capitalism.
