In the same year, Giacomo Meyerbeer succeeded Gaspare Spontini as General Music Director. Felix Mendelssohn also conducted symphonic concerts for a year.On August 18, 1843 the Linden Opera was destroyed by fire.

20th-Century American Criminals $21.98 Chapters: Boston Strangler, Martin Grossman. Source: Wikipedia. Pages: 18. Not illustrated. Free updates online. Purchase includes a free trial membership in the publisher’s book club where you can select from more than a million books without charge. Excerpt: The Boston Strangler is a name attributed to the murderer (or murderers) of several women in Boston, Massachusetts, United States, in the early 1960s. Though the crimes were attributed to Albert DeSalvo, investigators of the case have since suggested the murders (sometimes known as the silk stocking murders) were not committed by one person. Between June 14, 1962 and January 4, 1964, 13 single women (between the ages of 19 and 85) were murdered in the Boston area. Most had been sexually assaulted in their apartments and were murdered in the manner indicated above. Without any sign of forced entry into their dwellings, the women were assumed to have either known their assailant or have voluntarily allowed him into their homes, believing him to be an apartment maintenance person or some other service person. While the police were not convinced that all of these murders were the work of a single individual, much of the public believed so. The media certainly fueled the idea of a single murderer referring to him with names such as ‘The Phantom’ and ‘The Sunset Killer’ before settling on ‘The Boston Strangler.’ Gainsborough Street, site of the first murder attributed to the Boston strangler.On October 27, 1964, a stranger entered a young woman’s home posing as a detective. He tied his victim to her bed, proceeded to sexually assault her, and suddenly left, saying “I’m sorry” as he went. The woman’s description led police to identify the assailant as Albert DeSalvo and when his photo was published, many women identified him as the man who had assaulted them. Earlier on October 27, DeSalvo had posed as a motorist with car trouble and attempted to enter a home in Bridgewater, …More: |

A House Is Not a Home $23.1 Polly Adler’s house -the brothel that gave this best-selling 1953 autobiography its title–was a major site of New York City underworld activity from the 1920s through the 1940s. Adler’s notorious Lexington Avenue house of prostitution functioned as a sort of social club for New York’s gangsters and a variety of other celebrities, including Robert Benchley and his friend Dorothy Parker. According to one New York tabloid, it made Adler’s name synonymous with sin. This new edition of Adler’s autobiography brings back into print a book that was a mass phenomenon, in both hardback and paperback, when it was first published. A self-consciously literary work, A House Is Not a Home provides an informal social history of immigrant mobility, prostitution, Jewish life in New York, police dishonesty, the white slavery scare of the early twentieth century, and political corruption. Adler’s story fills an important gap in the history of immigrant life, urban experience, and organized crime in New York City. While most other accounts of the New York underworld focus on the lives of men, from Herbert Asbury’s Gangs of New York through more recent works on Jewish and Italian gangsters, this book brings women’s lives and problems to the forefront. A House Is Not a Home is compellingly readable and was popular enough to draw Holly wood’s attention in the early 1960s–leading to a film starring Shelley Winters as Adler. The book has been largely forgotten in the ensuing decades, lost both to its initial audience of general readers and to scholars in women’s studies, immigration history, and autobiography who are likely to find it a treasure trove. Now, with a new introduction by Rachel Rubin thatcontextualizes Adler’s life and literary achievement, A House Is Not a Home is again available to the many readers who have come to understand such marginal life stories as a special refraction of the more typical American success narrative. |

A Way Of Work And A Way Of Life $20.8 The coal mine represented much more than a way of making a living to the miners of Thurber, Texas, in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries—it represented a way of life. Coal mining dominated Thurber’s work life, and miners dominated its social life. The large immigrant population that filled the mines in Thurber represented more than a dozen nations, which lent a uniqueness to this Texas town.In 1888 Robert D. Hunter and the Texas & Pacific Coal Company founded Thurber on the site of Johnson Mines, a small coal-mining village on the western edge of North Central Texas where Palo Pinto, Erath, and Eastland counties converged. For almost forty years the company mined coal and owned and operated a town that by 1910 served as home to more than three thousand residents.Marilyn Rhinehart examines the culture of the miners’ work, the demographics and social life of the community, and the benefits and constraints of life in a company town.Author Biography: MARILYN D. RHINEHART is Vice-President of Instruction at Johnson County Community College in Overland Park, Kansas. She received her Ph.D. in American history from the University of Houston. |

A Way of Work and a Way of Life: Coal Mining in Thurber, Texas, 1888-1926 $4.83 The coal mine represented much more than a way of making a living to the miners of Thurber, Texas, in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries–it represented a way of life. Coal mining dominated Thurber’s work life, and miners dominated its social life. The large immigrant population that filled the mines in Thurber had arrived from more than a dozen nations, which lent a certain distinctiveness to this Texas town. In 1888 Robert D. Hunter and the Texas & Pacific Coal Company founded the town of Thurber on the site of Johnson Mines, a small coalmining village on the western edge of North Central Texas where Palo Pinto, Erath, and Eastland counties converged. William Whipple and Harvey E. Johnson first established a small community there in 1886 as the railroads’ demand for coal enhanced the possibility of financial reward for entrepreneurs willing to risk the effort to tap the thin bituminous coal veins that lay beneath the ground. Where the first comers failed, Hunter and his stockholders prevailed. For almost forty years the company mined coal and owned and operated a town that by 1910 served as home to more than three thousand residents. In some respects, the town mirrored the work and culture of bituminous coal mining communities throughout the United States. Like most, it experienced labor upheaval that reached a dramatic climax in 1903 when the United Mine Workers, emboldened and strengthened by successes in other parts of the Southwest, organized Thurber’s miners. Unlike elsewhere, however, the miners’ success at Thurber was not fraught with violence and loss of life; furthermore, in the strike’s aftermath good relations generally characterized employer/employeenegotiations. Marilyn Rhinehart examines the culture of the miners’ work, the demographics and social life of the community, and the benefits and constraints of life in a company town. Above all she demonstrates the features both at work and after work of a culture shaped by the occupation of |

A social work intervention for children with emotional and behavioral disabilities. $108 Partners in Success is a school social work intervention for children with emotional and behavioral disabilities who attend school in a separate site or segregated placement due to the severity of the behaviors associated with the disability. The purpose of the study was to improve school outcomes for children who have been removed from the mainstream. The key intervention strategy was the engagement of parents through joint goal setting with school social workers and teachers. Several decades of research show that when parents are invited to participate in the education of their children, children show improvement in grades and behaviors. Engaging the parents of children who have emotionally and behavioral disabilities has been challenging. Feelings of misunderstanding, mistrust and the rejection of both parents and children by schools, and a lack of understanding and accommodations for parents and children have been barriers to effective home-school partnerships.;A partial crossover design, delaying the intervention for the control group was used to test the intervention. Parents and teachers completed questionnaires at pretest, the time of crossover, and at posttest. The dependent variables, functional reading and math scores and behaviors were used to evaluate the effectiveness of the intervention.;Most children in both groups showed modest improvement. No significant differences between the experimental and control groups at posttest were found. |

Bradford A.F.C. $19.75 Purchase includes free access to book updates online and a free trial membership in the publisher’s book club where you can select from more than a million books without charge. Excerpt: Valley Parade – Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Manningham Rugby Football Club, formed in 1876, originally played games at Cardigan Fields, in the Carlisle Road area of Bradford. When their ground was sold to facilitate the construction of Drummond School, the club required a new home. Consequently, they bought one-third of the Valley Parade site in Manningham, taking a short-term lease out on the rest of the land in time to play there for the 188687 season. The new ground and the road it was built upon both adopted the name of the local area, Valley Parade, a name deriving from the steep hillside below Manningham. The land was previously a quarry, and formed part of a greater site owned by Midland Railway Company. The club spent £1,400 appointing designers to oversee the excavation and levelling of the land, and moved a one-year-old stand from Carlisle Road to the highest part of the new ground. The original ground comprised the relocated stand, a 2,000-capacity stepped enclosure with the players’ changing rooms beneath the stand, the playing area, a cinder athletics track and fencing to limit the total capacity to 18,000. The playing field was made of ballast, ashes, soil and sods. The ground was officially opened on 27 September 1886 for a game against Wakefield Trinity which was watched by a capacity crowd, but construction work meant most of Manningham’s early games were away fixtures. The ground’s current main standManningham RFC continued playing until 1903, when financial difficulties, caused by relegation at the turn of the century, prompted club officials to change codes from rugby football to association football. The first association football game to be played at Valley Parade was a promotional fixture on 6 April 1903 between a … More: |

Excerpt: Blackburn Cathedral Blackburn Cathedral , officially known as the Cathedral Church of Blackburn Saint Mary the Virgin , is a cathedral situated in the heart of Blackburn town centre, in Lancashire , England . The cathedral site has been home to a church for over a thousand years and the first stone church was built on there in Norman times. History With the creation of the Diocese of Blackburn in 1926 (taken from the Diocese of Manchester ) the impressive parish church of St Mary the Virgin was raised to cathedral status. The church, which was built in 1826 and designed by architect John Palmer , now forms the cathedral’s nave. In the early 1930s, fundraising began to enlarge the cathedral so that the building complemented its newfound importance. By 1938, enough money had been raised and work began on enlarging the new cathedral. Although work was interrupted by the war , it was resumed afterwards and continued through the 1950s and into the early 1960s. After the death of architect W.A. Forsyth in 1950, architect Laurence King joined the project and designed the distinctive lantern tower. The lantern tower, which consists of 56 different panes of coloured glass and an aluminium spire, was completed in 1967. The cathedral was finally completed in 1977 and what had been built over the past decades was finally consecrated as Blackburn Cathedral. The North transept contains eight misericords dating from the 15th century. It is not known at what time they arrived at |

Chapters: The Anne Carlsen Center for Children, North Dakota Governor’s School, North Dakota Superintendent of Public Instruction, North Dakota Department of Public Instruction. Excerpt: The Anne Carlsen Center is a not-for-profit organization that provides supports for individuals with disabilities in Jamestown, North Dakota. Named for Dr. Anne Carlsen, the school’s principal from 1948 until her retirement in 1981, ACC is one of the leading institutions in the United States for teaching individuals of all abilities. Over 360 full- and part-time employees work for the Center. The story of the Anne Carlsen Center began in 1915 when the Evangelical Good Samaritan Society was incorporated. In 1923, the first Good Samaritan Society home opened in Arthur, North Dakota (near Fargo) with 13 residents. In 1932, the Society moved to a closed college in Fargo and changed its name to the Good Samaritan Crippled Children’s School. In 1940, the Lutheran Hospitals and Homes Society purchased the school and began moving the operation to a new site 90 miles west in Jamestown where it has remained ever since. On September 21, 1941, the Lutheran Hospitals and Homes Society dedicated the new Crippled Children’s School in Jamestown. The new facility – serving 18 students – had two modern classrooms, a library, a craft room, a recreation room, a dining hall, a therapy room, and a dormitory with a capacity of 35. The superintendent was Rev. W.B. Schoenbohm. One of the high school teachers at the new school’s dedication was Anne Carlsen, a quadruple congenital amputee. Carlsen would go on to serve as the school’s principal in 1948, the superintendent in 1950, and finally its namesake in 1980.

Frankford Yellow Jackets $14.14 Purchase includes free access to book updates online and a free trial membership in the publisher’s book club where you can select from more than a million books without charge. Excerpt: The Frankford Yellow Jackets were a professional American football team, part of the National Football League from 1924 to 1931, though its origin dates back to as early as 1899 with the Frankford Athletic Association. The Yellow Jackets won the NFL championship in 1926. The team played its home games from 1923 in Frankford Stadium (also called Yellow Jacket Field) in Frankford, a section in the northeastern part of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, noted for the subway-elevated transit line that terminates there. The Frankford Athletic Association was organized in May 1899 in the parlor of the Suburban Club. The cost of purchasing a share in the association, was $10. However there were also contributing memberships, ranging from $1 to $2.50, made available to the general public. The Association was a community-based non-profit organization of local residents and businesses. In keeping with its charter, which stated that “all profits shall be donated to charity”. All of the team’s excess income was donated to local charitable institutions. The beneficiaries of this generosity included Frankford Hospital, the Frankford Day Nursery, the local Boy Scouts and the local American Legion Post 211. The officers of the Association never received a salary nor compensation for their work on behalf of the team. The association’s clubhouse was originally located at the current site of Frankford High School. The field at this site, known as Wistar Field, became the first official home of the Yellow Jackets. Several years later, when the construction of the current high school was proposed, the team moved to Brown’s Field. The Association initially fielded a baseball team, however soccer and football clubs also formed. The Association’s football team, played seve… More: |

Good Times Are All Gone Now: Life, Death, and Rebirth in an Idaho Mining Town $6.9 Julie Whitesel Weston left her hometown of Kellogg, Idaho, but eventually it pulled her back. Only when she returned to this mining community in the Idaho Panhandle did she begin to see the paradoxes of the place where she grew up. Her book combines oral history, journalistic investigation, and personal reminiscence to take a fond but hard look at life in Kellogg during “the good times.”Kellogg in the late 1940s and fifties was a typical American small town complete with high school football and basketball teams, marching band, and anti-Communist clubs; yet its bars, gambling dens, and brothels were entrenched holdovers from a rowdier frontier past. The Bunker Hill Mining Company, the largest employer, paid miners good wages for difficult, dangerous work, while the quest for lead, silver, and zinc denuded the mountainsides and laced the soil and water with contaminants.Weston researched the late-nineteenth-century founding of Kellogg and her family’s five generations in Idaho. She interviewed friends she grew up with, their parents, and her own parents’ friends—miners mostly, but also businesspeople, housewives, and professionals. Much of this memoir of place set during the Cold War and post-McCarthyism is told through their voices. But Weston also considers how certain people made a difference in her life, especially her band director, her ski coach, and an attorney she worked for during a major strike. She also explores her charged relationship with her father, a hardworking doctor revered in the community for his dedication but feared at home for his drinking and rages.The Good Times Are All Gone Now begins the day the smokestacks came down, and it reaches far back into collective and personal memory to understand a way of life now gone. The company town Weston knew is a different place, where “Uncle Bunker” is a Superfund site, and where the townspeople, as in previous hard times, have endured to |

Good, the Bad and the Difference: How To Tell The Right From Wrong In Everyday Situations $13.99 The man behind the New York Times Magazine’s immensely popular column “The Ethicist”–syndicated in newspapers across the United States and Canada as “Everyday Ethics”–casts an eye on today’s manners and mores with a provocative, thematic collection of advice on how to be good in the real world.Every week in his column on ethics, Randy Cohen takes on conundrums presented in letters from perplexed people who want to do the right thing (or hope to get away with doing the wrong thing), and responds with a skillful blend of moral authority and humor. Cohen’s wisdom and witticisms have now been collected in The Good, the Bad & the Difference, a collection of his columns as wise and funny as a combination of “Dear Abby,” Plato, and Mel Brooks. The columns are supplemented with second thoughts on (and sometimes complete reversals of) his original replies, follow-up notes on how his advice affected the actions of various letter writers, reactions from readers both pro and con, and observations from such “guest ethicists” as David Eggers and the author’s mom. Each chapter also features an “Ethics Pop Quiz,” and readers will be invited to post their answers on the book’s Web site. The best of them will appear in a future paperback edition of the book.The Good, the Bad & the Difference is divided into seven sections: •Civic Life (what we do in public) •Family Life (what we do at home) •Social Life (what we do in other people’s homes) •Commercial Life (what we do in situations wheremoney is a factor) •Medical Life (the rights and obligations of patients and caregivers) •Work Life (ethics for the professional sphere) •School Life (moral questions from and about kids)Each section provides a window into how we live |

Here, George Washington Was Born: Memory, Material Culture, and the Public History of a National Monument $9.95 In Here, George Washington Was Born, Seth C. Bruggeman examines the history of commemoration in the United States by focusing on the George Washington Birthplace National Monument in Virginia’s Northern Neck, where contests of public memory have unfolded with particular vigor for nearly eighty years.Washington left the birthplace with his family at a young age and rarely returned. The house burned in 1779 and would likely have passed from memory but for George Washington Parke Custis, who erected a stone marker on the site in 1815, creating the first birthplace monument in America. Both Virginia and the U.S. War Department later commemorated the site, but neither matched the work of a Virginia ladies association that in 1923 resolved to build a replica of the home. The National Park Service permitted construction of the “replica house” until a shocking archeological discovery sparked protracted battles between the two organizations over the building’s appearance, purpose, and claims to historical authenticity.Bruggeman sifts through years of correspondence, superintendent logs, and other park records to reconstruct delicate negotiations of power among a host of often unexpected claimants on Washington’s memory. By paying close attention to costumes, furnishings, and other material culture, he reveals the centrality of race and gender in the construction of Washington’s public memory and reminds us that national parks have not always welcomed all Americans. What’s more, Bruggeman offers the story of Washington’s birthplace as a cautionary tale about the perils and possibilities of public history by asking why we care about famous birthplaces at all. |

Hidden Lives $13.5 LIKE MONTICELLO, Thomas Jefferson’s Poplar Forest offers a significant archeological view of slave life at the turn of the nineteenth century in rural Virginia. In Hidden Lives, Barbara J. Heath re-creates the daily life of slaves at Jefferson’s second home from 1773, the year he inherited the plantation, until 1812, when his reorganization of its landscape resulted in the destruction of a slave quarter. Drawing on census data, letters, memoranda, and other primary material, Heath describes the slave community’s family ties, the agricultural cycle of work, and the sickness and health care they experienced. Her portrait is enhanced by fresh archaeological findings and a wealth of illustrations, including site and contemporary maps,../images of slaves at work and at home, artifacts, and interpretive drawings.By looking at the social meaning of buildings, yards, and artifacts, Heath presents new interpretations of how individuals used materials to create a sense of self and community, how they acquired belongings, and how they safeguarded them. For visitors to historic sites and students and scholars of archaeology, Heath’s book offers a visual and textual exploration of complex relationships within the plantation and of the resulting choices, compromises, and limitations that Jefferson’s slaves negotiated in the process of making a home within the confines of institutionalized slavery. |

Historic Virginia Gardens: Preservation Work of the Garden Club of Virginia, 1975-2007 $33.76 For more than seventy-five years, The Garden Club of Virginia has undertaken garden research and preservation work at numerous historic sites across the Old Dominion, restoring and creating beautiful landscapes for the education and enjoyment of all, from backyard gardeners to design professionals. Historic Virginia Gardens documents in breathtaking fashion this important contribution to the Commonwealth’s botanical and architectural heritage. Picking up where an earlier volume, dedicated to the period from 1930 to 1975, left off, this new book brings the Club’s work from the period 1975 to 2007 to life through a graceful and informative text by Margaret Page Bemiss, a host of historical and contemporary drawings, extensive native and heritage plant lists, and 125 splendid new color photographs from the award-winning garden photographer Roger Foley.The gardens highlighted here range in location from the Eastern Shore to Blacksburg, and date from the seventeenth century to the twenty-first. Margaret Bemiss describes not only the preservation of the gardens, but also each place, its builder, and its historic context. Giving the reader a fuller understanding of why each particular garden or landscape was worth restoring or re-creating, Bemiss explains the site’s significance, in Virginia’s rich history as well as in the history of gardening and landscape design. In addition to Foley’s photographs, each narrative is also accompanied by bird’s-eye-view drawings and site plans for the gardens, along with working drawings of garden buildings, furniture, fences, and gates. Of particular interest to practicing gardeners and garden historians is the comprehensive list of native and imported plants that were utilized in the gardens. The significance of the projects, from George Washington’s Mount Vernon and Gari Melcher’s Belmont to the Prestons’ frontier home in Blacksburg and Thomas Jefferson’s Monticello, make this book of interest not only to |

In the selection of an eligible site for the Central Home, the attention of the Board of Managers was directed to the rich and fertile valley of the Miami, so well known for its beauty and salubrity; and finding it admirably adapted to the purposes of a home, they at once entered into negotiations for the purchase of five hundred and forty acres of land, about three miles west of the city of Dayton, and in 1867 active work was commenced. The lands at the time of the purchase were in the ordinary condition of farm lands of the state, possessing, however, natural beauty and great facilities for improvement. Above all, the supply of water was both abundant and excellent. On the grounds are several mineral springs, two of which have rare medicinal properties. Chaplain T. B. Van Horn, of the United States Army, was detailed bythe Secretary of “War, at the request of the Board of Managers, to lay out the grounds; and the Home, with its broad avenues, heautiful lakes, splendid groves, and cultivated lawns, presents one of the most attractive places in the country. The site overlooks the cityand the beautiful scenery of the Miami valley for miles around. The work of improvement has been prosecuted most vigorously, and alterations and additions are being made continually. Although but a few years have elapsed since its commencement, the Central Branch may be regarded as |

House: Black Swan Theory $24.92 In 1989, Princeton Architectural Press published Anchoring, the first book on the work of the then up-and-coming architect Steven Holl. Since then, Holl has become one of the most famous and highly regarded architects in the world through his award-winning residential and institutional work; his teaching, writings, and drawings; and his persistent vision of an architecture that takes into consideration its place, time, and all the senses of the viewer. This philosophy helped to create some of the richest and most celebrated buildings of the past several decades. Indeed, in 2001, Time magazine called Holl “America’s Best Architect for ‘buildings that satisfy the spirit as well as the eye.’”Sequels to AnchoringIntertwining and Parallaxchronicled Holl’s work from the period 1988 to 1995. House brings us up-to-date on Holl’s most recent residences and collects his best-known projects from the past including a total of fifteen of Holl’s residential works. Rather than having an unvarying style, these houses aim at the sometimes elusive ideal of the specific. Each house tackles a different design challenge, using site as the physical and metaphysical foundation upon which to build. Fusing building and situation, Holl creates a unique expression in each home. Beautiful andinnovative, the houses span the globe, ranging from a secluded location in Hawaii, to the Catskill Mountains of New York, to Martha’s Vineyard, to the Hague in the Netherlands. Each project is accompanied by Holl’s charming watercolor building studies as well as an insightful explanation of how he was inspired by the land upon which the house sits and how the sumptuous materials utilized reflect the spirit of the location. |

How to Build Your Own Greenhouse $14.16 For avid gardeners, the biggest downside of the hobby is the limited growing season in much of the country. Gardening during the winter is often reduced to tending houseplants and browsing seed catalogs for next summer’s tomato choices.Master Gardener and builder Roger Marshall enthusiastically presents his case for home greenhouses with a thorough examination of everything the potential builder needs to know. Marshall’s coverage of the subject begins with a careful consideration of the various purposes served by greenhouses. Will the structure be used as a damp, warm hothouse for rare orchids? A tropical paradise for banana and citrus trees? A friendlier environment in which to get a jump on a summer vegetable garden is the goal for many gardeners, while an inviting setting for a year-round hot tub surrounded by lush greenery has an undeniable appeal. Whatever its eventual use will be, Marshall helps the reader examine every option and make an informed choice.After determining the type and style of the structure, Marshall progresses, chapter by chapter, through the construction elements of the greenhouse — from choosing a site, to laying the foundation and determining which glazing material will work best. Plumbing, heating, supplemental lighting, misting, and automatic venting systems are also covered for the truly committed reader/gardener.The final section of the book includes detailed plans for nine actual greenhouses, from a simple cold frame to an elaborately detailed framed, detached structure. Whatever the greenhouse goal, Marshall opens the way to longer growing seasons, abundant organically grown fruits and vegetables, and many more happy months playing in the dirt! |

Whatever its eventual use will be, Marshall helps the reader examine every option and make an informed choice.After determining the type and style of the structure, Marshall progresses, chapter by chapter, through the construction elements of the greenhouse — from choosing a site, to laying the foundation and determining which glazing material will work best. Plumbing, heating, supplemental lighting, misting, and automatic venting systems are also covered for the truly committed reader/gardener.The final section of the book includes detailed plans for nine actual greenhouses, from a simple cold frame to an elaborately detailed framed, detached structure. Whatever the greenhouse goal, Marshall opens the way to longer growing seasons, abundant organically grown fruits and vegetables, and many more happy months playing in the dirt! |

Letters From Space: The Memoirs of a Mad Scientist $6.02 This collection of letters by the renowned mad scientist “Dirk Stenowitze” has been in the works by author and cult hero Aaron Smoly (of Four Spacemen on a Mule fame) since 1999. Dirk’s adventures take us from his home in Mexico to Venus, Bulgaria, Madagascar, and beyond. In a friendly irreverent manner, the letters cover a range of sensitive subjects, such as Schrödinger’s Cat, homosexuality, talking donkeys, Nazis, and the end of the world. Nothing is safe, and even less is sacred as Stenowitze creates new worlds and new sciences to impress his lifelong nemesis Jimmey Johnson. There is something to offend everyone in this controversial amalgamation of madness and genius. If this book doesn’t make you laugh, then you aren’t a Homo sapiens.Accomplished journalist and educator Aaron Smoly lives in Cape Coral, Florida. His irreverent humor is inspired by his skewed world view and the novels of Kurt Vonnegut. Smoly as at work on his next novel, Letters From Space: Donkeys in Space.Publisher’s Web site: http://www.strategicpublishinggroup.com/LettersFromSpace.html |
