Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What do Scott Joplin, John Grisham, Gen. Douglas MacArthur, Maya Angelou, Brooks Robinson, Helen Gurley Brown, Johnny Cash, Alan Ladd, and Sonny Boy Williamson have in common? They’re all Arkansans. What do hillbillies, rednecks, slow trains, bare feet, moonshine, and double-wides have in common? For many in America these represent Arkansas more than any Arkansas success stories do. In 1931 H. L. Mencken described AR (not AK, folks) as the “apex of moronia.” While, in 1942 a Time magazine article said Arkansas had “developed a mass inferiority complex unique in American history.” Arkansas/Arkansaw is the first book to explain how Arkansas’s image began and how the popular culture stereotypes have been perpetuated and altered through succeeding generations. Brooks Blevins argues that the image has not always been a bad one. He discusses travel accounts, literature, radio programs, movies, and television shows that give a very positive image of the Natural State. From territorial accounts of the Creole inhabitants of the Mississippi River Valley to national derision of the state’s triple-wide governor’s mansion to Li’l Abner, the Beverly Hillbillies, and Slingblade, Blevins leads readers on an entertaining and insightful tour through more than two centuries of the idea of Arkansas. One discovers along the way how one state becomes simultaneously a punch line and a source of admiration for progressives and social critics alike. Winner, 2011 Ragsdale Award

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A man squanders his family fortune until he is penniless, loses every time he runs for public office, and yet is so admired by the people of Arkansas that the General Assembly names a county in his honor. A renowned writer makes her home in the basement of a museum until she is sued by some of the most prominent women of the state regarding the use of the rooms upstairs. A brilliant inventor who nearly built the first airplane is also vilified for his eccentricity and possible madness. Author Steven Teske rummages through Arkansas’s colorful past to find--and "unvarnish"--some of the state’s most controversial and fascinating figures. The nine people featured in this collection are not the most celebrated products of Arkansas. More than half of them were not even born in Arkansas, although all of them lived in Arkansas and contributed to its history and culture. But each of them has achieved a certain stature in local folklore, if not in the story of the state as a whole.

Book excerpt: Looking at discrimination, education, environment, health and crime, this volume analyses United States Supreme Court rulings on several legal issues and proposed libertarian solutions to each problem. Setting their own liberal theory of law, each chapter discusses the law at hand, what it should be, and what it would be if their political economic philosophy were the justification of the legal practice. Covering issues such as sexual harassment, religion, markets in human organs, drug prohibition and abortion, this book is a timely contribution to classical liberal debate on law and economics.

Book excerpt: During the Hellenistic period you couldn't swing a dead cat three feet in any direction without hitting a verbose, toga-wearing, wine-swilling philosopher in the back of the head. However, since that golden era of logical thought, philosophizing has been in a state of decline. The sole purpose of this book is to take Americans back to a sweeter time when philosophical questions were not only politely asked, they were damn well answered! Why do scientists love monkeys? How can we make fortune cookies better? Does Oprah need shock collars for her guests? What is a love chicken? Why buy your kids from Wal-Mart? Why do vampires hate lamb with mint jelly? What is hu-falf? Why serve death row inmates take-out from Outback Steakhouse? When is it acceptable to dress a dictator in a bull suit? Why do we need to save the beautiful ski people of Aspen? This book addresses the questions that Americans never imagined they'd ever have to ask, much less answer. The text, written entirely by a crow, breaks down the philosophical underpinnings behind American culture and elucidates life in an entertaining, unusual, easy-to-understand way that explains the phenomena and evolution of American philosophy.
