He is aboard an ocean liner sailing to the Mysterious East (Hong Kong, French Indochina, and the Philippines), among other places. The year is 1894 and aboard the S S China Billy meets a mysterious, dazzling, and possibly dangerous German Baroness, locked horns with malevolent agents of the German government, and battled ferocious Chinese and Malay pirates in the South China Sea. Later, he is inadvertently embroiled in the bloody anti-French insurgency in Indochina–which quite possibly makes him the first American combatant in a country that eventually will become Vietnam.

As the 19th century ends and the 20th century begins, he finds himself entangled with political opportunists, spies, revolutionaries and an assortment of malevolent and dubious characters of both sexes.

As he works his way through the aging journals and the other possessions he finds in the battered trunks he uncovers the truth about his mysterious great-grandfather--a man whose deeds and misdeeds propelled him on an extraordinary and perilous journey from the untamed American West to the inscrutable Far East, Latin America, and Europe.

Book Synopsis Down and Dirty Pictures by : Peter Biskind
Download or read book Down and Dirty Pictures written by Peter Biskind and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2013-01-08 with total page 560 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this “dishy…superbly reported” (Entertainment Weekly) New York Times bestseller, Peter Biskind chronicles the rise of independent filmmakers who reinvented Hollywood—most notably Sundance founder Robert Redford and Harvey Weinstein, who with his brother, Bob, made Miramax Films an indie powerhouse. As he did in his acclaimed Easy Riders, Raging Bulls, Peter Biskind “takes on the movie industry of the 1990s and again gets the story” (The New York Times). Biskind charts in fascinating detail the meteoric rise of the controversial Harvey Weinstein, often described as the last mogul, who created an Oscar factory that became the envy of the studios, while leaving a trail of carnage in his wake. He follows Sundance as it grew from a regional film festival to the premier showcase of independent film, succeeding almost despite the mercurial Redford, whose visionary plans were nearly thwarted by his own quixotic personality. Likewise, the directors who emerged from the independent movement, such as Quentin Tarantino, Steven Soderbergh, and David O. Russell, are now among the best-known directors in Hollywood. Not to mention the actors who emerged with them, like Matt Damon, Ben Affleck, Ethan Hawke, and Uma Thurman. Candid, controversial, and “sensationally entertaining” (Los Angeles Times) Down and Dirty Pictures is a must-read for anyone interested in the film world.
Download or read book Billy's Monster written by Lisa Filler and published by Outskirts Press. This book was released on 2017-02-20 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A poignant and personal account of the progressive ravages of Early-Onset Alzheimer's disease, not only on Billy's memory and quality of life, but also the relationship between a husband and a wife, as the disease steadily dissolved the partnership of marriage far too soon. The transition of Billy's fiery independence into that of a childlike dependent was consistent and confounding, and a stark contrast to the vibrant personality he had always embodied. The Monster of Alzheimer's grew fierce quickly, but with determination to fill the final chapter of their love story with moments of joy, they attempted to ignore the Monster for a small bit of time and live intentionally in each gifted moment together. With defiance against the Monster's inevitable conquest of Billy's beautiful mind, and a desire to fill that final chapter with sustaining memories, the conservative boundaries of a planned out future were forfeited and Billy's natural tendency to live life with wild abandon embraced. Uprooting a life of security built together in rural Montana and transplanting it on Oregon's serene central coast, ushered in one significant summer in which to search out adventure, reconnect with distant family members, and settle into a temporary bubble to share a precious season together. The Giver allowed a whirlwind of adventure and wild abandon before the Monster could no longer be ignored and The Taker threatened to step in. The depth of love and strength often realized only through battle, teamed with frustration and panic, became weapons in this heart-wrenching war and eventually led them back to Montana where the inevitable surrender took place on the battlefield of home. Early-Onset Alzheimer's without a genetic component itself is quite rare, but a twist in the last days of Billy's war revealed a possible and yet rarer diagnosis of Multiple System Atrophy. And, although Alzheimer's disease has become a research priority and has been deemed an epidemic in many articles, awareness of the lack of support and compassion for those suffering with dementia left a bruised spirit in the wake of battles fought and lost. Perhaps Billy's story will inspire the courage necessary to face one day at a time for anyone searching for answers throughout the same dark tunnels, and help them to discover God's grace and presence where they would least expect it.

Book excerpt: Imagine a man who is part Forrest Gump, part Clark Kent, and part George Bailey from "It's a Wonderful Life"! Incredibly, such a man exits! In this lively memoir, Billy Brett offers a captivating look at his battle with ADHD as friend and foe. Using sweeping strokes to recall the people and events that helped to shape his imagination and dreams - including his hero, Superman - Brett shows how he struggled with a "black cloud" that seemed to threaten his self-worth, sense of success, and dream of becoming the police officer that he knew he was meant to be. As a policeman, Brett finds that his "black cloud" nemesis has pursued him, turning minor self-doubts into major setbacks of self-confidence. Overrun by doubt and despair, even to the point of focusing on the idea of being hit while riding his motorcycle, he is indeed run over! Brett uses his accident to learn that he has always had a treatable disorder called ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder). He begins to understand how he has been projecting the failures he has experienced in life. With the "black cloud" no longer in control, Brett begins to turn self-doubt into self-power, hyper-focus into easy resourcefulness, a channel-surfing mind without remote control into clear intent, and a fear of failure into imaginative success. He begins to see what a wonderful life he has as a cop, husband, and father. This funny, candid, and fast-paced book is an invaluable empowering resource for those wishing to understand ADHD, with its challenges and struggles, and its joyful freedom of creative expression.

Book excerpt: A true crime travel guide to the haunts and hangouts of the most notorious gangsters of London’s East End. There are many conflicting stories about who Ronnie and Reggie Kray were. Films depicting their lives have made the public vilify them, adore them and even admire them. This guidebook will dig a little deeper into the places they spent their time. Many of the places are renowned as the stomping grounds of the devious duo, but there are one or two exclusives that are not yet covered anywhere else, including the untold story of their lifelong hairdresser. Chapter by chapter, a map of their lives will reveal itself, making this the perfect read for anybody around the world interested in London’s gangster scene. “I remember going home from a cinema visit to London in the early 1960s with police sirens all over the place as we went through the East End. I remember the newspaper reports of the time, and wondering how the police could allow such people to control the East End to such an extent, and to apparently countenance the horrors this evil gang inflicted on their own and their enemies. It was a horrendous time to be alive in the East End of London, and Caroline’s superb book brings it all back to life.” —Books Monthly

The favor was to retrieve his son, a college student known as Jimmy Pierce, to come back and see him for the first time. This, however, brings him to remember traumatizing times when he was younger. Jimmy Pierce, a football player for the University of Michigan, is preparing for the most-challenging game of his life, the game being against his heated rival, Ohio State. Everything leading up to the game seemed well. The outcome, however, was much more surprising. The earthquake occurred during the second quarter of the game. For an unknown reason, it occurred, destroying the city of Ann Arbor and diverting the outcomes of both Jimmy and Joe who, in some way, meet each other in the most bizarre of circumstances. Both of them finding a fight just for them to travel from Michigan to West Virginia where Jimmy's dad is residing. Eventually, this escapade turns into something more than a rough road trip, involving disaster, ramage, and a powerful artifact that can decide the fate of the world and who gets to operate in the shadows.
