Download or read book Snakes Guillotines Electric Chairs My Adventures in the Alice Cooper Band written by Dennis Dunaway and published by Omnibus Press. This book was released on 2015-06-15 with total page 361 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Alice Cooper became the stuff of legend in the early '70s, their shows were monuments of fun and invention. Riding on a string of hits like "I'm 18" and "School's Out," they became America's highest-grossing act, producing four platinum albums and hitting number one on the U.S. and U.K. charts with Billion Dollar Babies in 1973. As teenagers in Phoenix, Dennis Dunaway and lead singer Vince Furnier, who would later change his name to Alice Cooper, formed a hard-knuckles band that played prisons, cowboy bars and teen clubs. Their journey took them from Hollywood to the ferocious Detroit music scene. From struggling for recognition to topping the charts, the Alice Cooper group was entertaining, outrageous, and one-of-a-kind. Dennis Dunaway, the bassist and co-songwriter for the band, tells a story just as over-the-top crazy as their (in)famous shows. Snakes! Guillotines! Electric Chairs! is the riveting account of the band's creation in the '60s, strange glory in the '70s, and the legendary characters they met along the way.

Download or read book Holy Thor written by Sandra Hill and published by Sandra Hill Books. This book was released on 2022-11-23 with total page 1199 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Viking Navy Seals? What an odd combination! Well, Holy Thor! Not really: — The ancient Vikings and modern SEALs are both noted for their fighting skills. — They love boats and the water can anyone say longships and the Navy?). — Both are known to be buff of body and uncommonly attractive (Women from foreign countries were known to invite the Vikings to their bed furs because they were so tempting. Or was it because they bathed more often than the average man?). — They share a rare sense of humor, the ability to laugh at themselves, as evidenced by the old sagas. — Loyalty to family and country abounds. Sandra Hill, with her trademark humor and sizzle, combines both cultures via contemporary time travels where centuries-separated lovers are brought together in outrageous miracles of destiny. Rough and Ready She’s rough...he’s ready...together, they’re a match.... In Rough and Ready, a group of Navy SEALs under the leadership of Lt. Torolf Magnusson accidentally find themselves back in the eleventh century Norselands in a woman's sanctuary where they fight off a vicious "terrorist" named Steinolf, as well as the women themselves, who want babies without the men (think Dark Age one-night stands, which amuse and offend the horny but honorable men). Torolf manages to return to the future, but, again, accidentally, he brings a reluctant Hilda Brundottir back with him and has no choice but to place her in his home in a biker trailer park named Hog Heaven. Down and Dirty When a hot Navy SEAL...meets a reluctant Viking warrior-ess...sparks fly! Down and Dirty has Navy SEAL Frank "Pretty Boy" Floyd facing a two-edged sword, a five-year-old, half-Arab son he never knew existed, the affectionately called Sammy the Snot, and Britta the Big, an ancient Viking warrioress that Floyd had met in that weird trip back to the past in Rough and Ready. Viking Unchained When destiny demands two time-crossed lovers must meet... Tears and laughter abound in Viking Unchained where the grief-stricken Viking Thorfinn Ericsson goes searching for his missing son Miklof and finds him a thousand years in the future with little Mike Denton, the son of Navy SEAL widow Lydia Denton, an aerobics instructor.

Download or read book Dick in the Everglades written by A. W. Dimock and published by . This book was released on 2014-06-28 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Dick Series by A.W. Stokes is a four book series written by A.W. Dimock. In many respects it can be considered a companion series to the Jack Series also published by F.A. Stokes. Both series involved adventures of boys in the wild. This four book series chronicles the adventures of Dick and his buddy Ned in different outdoor scenarios. The title of the book tells of the adventure. The books have photographs done by Dimock. Anthony Weston Dimock (1842-1918) was an interesting fellow. Well educated at Phillips Academy and George Washington University, he made a fortune in the gold market while working on Wall Street. He subsequently spent time in the West with ranchers and Indians and later was a real estate developer in Elizabeth. New Jersey. He wrote a number of books including Florida Enchantments and this series. The great stories about Dimock include how he made and lost millions several times. In the 1860's he had invested heavily in Pacific Mail stock . The company went down the toilet so fast that it broke Dimock. Subsequently he remade his fortune in real estate in New Jersey. The financial crash of 1872 wiped him out for the second time. At the age of 41 after making another fortune on Wall Street his investments failed him during "financial disturbances" in 1884. He was living the good life in 1894 even in significant debt in Kingston, New York when he and his family were served with papers. Dimock was forcibly removed from a rental house with his furniture and family during a rainstorm. The Dick Series 1. Dick in the Everglades 1909 2. Dick Among the Lumberjacks 1910 3.

Download or read book Women s Movement written by Heidi Slettedahl MacPherson and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2021-07-26 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Women’s Movement critically explores the transgressive potential of feminist escape narratives and argues that they are, almost by definition, radically different from paradigmatic male escape narratives. While definitions of escape are necessarily broad, they have too often excluded the ambiguous escape – the escape most closely associated with the female. Indeed, feminist escape narratives often resist a happy ending, and Women’s Movement argues that these narrative closures reflect the changing face of feminism, as it sheds its old certainties, is faced with a monumental “backlash” and is refigured as the potentially less threatening “postfeminism”. Resisting the automatic association of “escape” with “escapist,” Women’s Movement analyzes male adventure and quest narratives, including Moby-Dick, The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, Blood Meridian, and Deliverance, before turning to a range of feminist texts. While being the first book to give critical attention to some postfeminist novels, Women’s Movement more often acts as a channel for offering different ways of approaching familiar feminist texts, including, among others, Marian Engel’s Bear, Atwood’s Surfacing and The Handmaid’s Tale, Joan Barfoot’s Gaining Ground and Dancing in the Dark, Anne Tyler’s Earthly Possessions and Ladder of Years, Marilynne Robinson’s Housekeeping, Erica Jong’s Fear of Flying and Margaret Laurence’s The Diviners.
