Book excerpt: It is the golden age of the steam locomotive. The transcontinental railroad has just been completed across America, and while Native American Indians are fighting for their survival in the western territories, scores of people are looking for entertainment. Trainwreckers is inspired by the true-life exploits of Casey Jones, Joseph S. Connolly, and William G. Crust. Trainwreckers captures the spirit of the defiant, reckless age of the steam engine. This is a fictional account of Red Eagle, Doc Leonard, and Rachael Weatherford as they travel around the country staging head-on train wrecks for groups of adventuresome, frenzied, thrill seeking spectators looking for entertainment. The year is 1890 and the Wild West is in full swing. When the crowds grow and more money flows, the Trainwreckers decide to stage the ultimate train crash, and only one person will survive. The great train crash takes on a national significance in the race for the presidency of the United States during the William Jennings Bryan presidential campaign in 1896 against the Republican Candidate and former Ohio governor William McKinley.

Download or read book Trying to Save Piggy Sneed written by John Irving and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2016-02-02 with total page 339 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A commemorative hardcover edition of the only collection ever published of the celebrated novelist's shorter works. Here is a treat for devoted fans of John Irving. First published twenty years ago, Trying to Save Piggy Sneed contains a dozen short works by the author, beginning with three memoirs. The longest of the memoirs is "The Imaginary Girlfriend," his candid account of his twin careers in writing and wrestling, which, as the Denver Post observed, is filled "with anecdotes that are every bit as hilarious as the antics in his novels . . . [and] combines the lessons of both obsessions." The middle portion of the book is fiction. Over a career that spans thirteen novels, these are the six stories that Mr. Irving considers finished. Among them is "Interior Space," for which he won the O. Henry Award. In the third and final section are three homages: one to Günter Grass and two to Charles Dickens. To each of the twelve pieces, he has contributed author's notes, which provide some perspective on the circumstances surrounding the writing of each piece. For readers who prefer a hardcover, this commemorative edition is a book to treasure. For new readers, it is a perfect introduction to the author of works as moving and mischievous as The World According to Garp,A Prayer for Owen Meany, and In One Person. Skyhorse Publishing, as well as our Arcade, Yucca, and Good Books imprints, are proud to publish a broad range of books for readers interested in fiction—novels, novellas, political and medical thrillers, comedy, satire, historical fiction, romance, erotic and love stories, mystery, classic literature, folklore and mythology, literary classics including Shakespeare, Dumas, Wilde, Cather, and much more. While not every title we publish becomes a New York Times bestseller or a national bestseller, we are committed to books on subjects that are sometimes overlooked and to authors whose work might not otherwise find a home.
