Book excerpt: From their inception in 1935, comic books -starring Superman, Batman,Captain Marvel- had been primarily written for and aimed at adolescents. Therewere always the occasional outlier artists who pushed back against thecommercial constraints of comic books and envisioned the next evolutionaryartistic leap in the artform, and Charles Biro was one of those artists. In1949, the ambitious Biro -who had previously co-created the realistically brutalcomic Crime Does Not pay- editedand wrote an over-sized comic aimed at adultscalled Tops. Like several other radical adult comics projects that would follow,it proved to be a commercial failure, and lasted only two Life magazine-sizedissues. The original comics have since become a legendary holy grail amongcomics fans and historians, fetching as much as $6,000 on the collector'smarket, written about, but rarely seen and never reprinted. Until now. Fantagraphics' TOPS collects both issues of this over-sized experimental comicin their entirety. These pulpy, sexy, and melodramatic stories wer drawn by someof the best craftsmen working in comics at that time: Dan Barry, George Tuska,Bob Fujitani, Fred Kida, Bob Lubbers, Fred Guardineer and others. It includestwo stunning pre-EC crime tales illustrated by Reed Crandall, reminiscent of hisCrime SuspenStories work. Over-the-top story titles include "I'll Buy ThatGirl," "Marriage Swap Shop," "The Prize WasDeath." The actor Melvyn Douglas (believe it or not) takes the reader on autopian tour entitled "How Would You Live Under A World Government?"- a positive spin on global Socialism! Editor/historian/cartoonist MichaelT. Gilbert has meticulously restored the original 1949 pages and addedcontextual material by historians Ken Quattro, Roger Hill, and others.Tops is alandmark work of historical importance and a mind-boggling reading experiencefrom a bygone era.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Audisee® eBooks with Audio combine professional narration and sentence highlighting for an engaging read aloud experience! "Father, is all of the world a refugee camp?" Young Kalia has never known life beyond the fences of the Ban Vinai Refugee Camp. The Thai camp holds many thousands of Hmong families who fled in the aftermath of the little-known Secret War in Laos that was waged during America's Vietnam War. For Kalia and her cousins, life isn't always easy, but they still find ways to play, racing with chickens and riding a beloved pet dog. Just four years old, Kalia is still figuring out her place in the world. When she asks what is beyond the fence, at first her father has no answers for her. But on the following day, he leads her to the tallest tree in the camp and, secure in her father's arms, Kalia sees the spread of a world beyond. Kao Kalia Yang's sensitive prose and Rachel Wada's evocative illustrations bring to life this tender true story of the love between a father and a daughter.

Download or read book The Munros and Tops written by Chris Townsend and published by Random House. This book was released on 2013-05-24 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Chris Townsend reached the summit of Ben Hope in Sutherland, he walked his way into the record books. After 118 days in which he had covered more than 1,700 miles and climber over 575,000 feet, he had completed the first single continuous journey of all 277 Munros and 240 Tops in the Scottish Highlands.This is the story of that remarkable walk from the start on Ben More on the Isle of Mull through to the finish, the equivalent of climbing Mount Everest 18 times. For the author, the real enjoyment of the walk was not in counting up the summits or the miles but in spending week after week in the hills and living in the wilds. In THE MUNROS AND TOPS, Chris Townsend recalls the joys of observing the birds and animals, the trees and flowers, the changing shapes of the hills and the play of light on their slopes. He writes about the complexities of route-finding and the challenge of rugged terrain and of coping with often atrocious weather conditions. Illustrated with photographs taken during the walk, this is a stirring account of a unique achievement.
