Book excerpt: A fiery explosion in the sulfur mine kills his father leaving 5 year old Aspanu head of his family. -His mother struggles as she is faced with signing his life away as an indentured servant, saying he will now work in the 100+ degree mines to pay off their debt. -When the townspeople see no real change in their working conditions regarding their safety, and the people are fed up with unfair labor practices, they hold clandestine meetings to stage a massive riot in the square. -Civil unrest boils and comes to a head. Impending, dangerous backlash looms when the mine owners find out. -Aspanu's mother's 'connections' warn her to not be in the square when the riot takes place, and she in turn tells her son, but he doesn't listen. -Screams, dark clouds of explosives, thunderous noise, and dead bodies line the streets. One of the bodies is someone who Aspanu loved dearly. -Emmigrating to America, he tries to forget his heart-breaking past and make a new life for himself. -He learns a lot about the values we all hold dear, and where the church, the mafia, and freinds and family fit in to that picture.

Since the 1600s, Qafa men have lost their lives and taken lives fighting against the Ottoman Turks, the Yugoslavian Serbs, and the communists. Simon Qafa tells the story of Pjeter Cup Qafa, his father, who was known as "the legend of the mountains" for his role as one of the most important freedom fighters of his day. Simon's life is chronicled here with a roller coaster journey from his childhood in Albania and Kosovo, the seminary in Rome, prison in New York, and as a family man and active advocate against communism.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Detective Vic Gonnella Thriller It's 1957. A little boy is found on a cold February night, along a lonely road in Philadelphia. DEAD. Someone still holds a secret. From HistoricMysteries.com, "However, hope still remains as Court TV, 48 Hours, and America's Most Wanted have featured this case in recent episodes. Perhaps the lead everyone has been waiting for will present itself." Two main questions still abound, having left kind-hearted people around the world stumped. #1 WHAT would be the motive for wanting this little boy dead? #2 WHY hasn't this murder been solved all these years? It was a simplistic time in the United States. Pre-Kennedy assassination, pre-landing on the moon, before Viet Nam, before Love-Ins, and unfortunately, before DNA testing. Now it's 58 years later, and Detective Vic Gonnella and Raquel Ruiz, with their Type A personalities, won't rest until the heinous injustice that was done to this little boy is exposed. Follow them as they crisscross the country to conduct interviews and tear apart clues left cold in the police files of the Philadelphia Police Department. As clues and leads are followed, Detective Gonnella and Raquel find themselves continuously detoured by people's secret, double lives. YOU THINK I'M DEAD is the second in the detective Vic Gonnella series, with INTERCESSION being the first.

Book excerpt: Five years ago, the world found themselves conflicted as they cheered for a serial killer. -John Deegan, ex-special ops, and a master of disguise with his appearance and voice, was the most hunted man on the planet for murdering pedophiles by stabbing them in their necks with sharpened-to-a-point crucifixes, and that included the priest who molested him when he was a little boy. Unfortunately, the Catholic Church still never made any changes to protect children. It is now 2016, and Pope Francis, leader of the world's 1.2 billion Roman Catholics, is retiring due to ill health. All the world's cardinals will descend upon the Sistine Chapel for the conclave to elect a new pope. -When a string of gruesome murders take place in and around the catacombs, historic churches, and homosexual hot spots of Rome, some fear the worst is yet to come, and the prophesy of St. Malachy may be taking place that Pope Francis, the 212th pope, will be the Church's last pope, as clearly, a madman is on the loose. -Fearing a disaster and trying to avoid yet another media frenzy, the Vatican secretly calls on Detective Vic Gonnella to track Deegan down before any leaks take place and their reputation tainted. Vic uncovers, however, that Deegan is also in ill health. Is John Deegan planning one final gift to the world? Does he go incognito as a cardinal? A Swiss Guardsman? And more importantly has he recruited and trained more people to continue his plan for JUSTICE after he dies?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Newly edited and revamped edition of this True Crime Story: What does a real-life Mafia enforcer actually do on a day-to-day basis? Born in the Life illustrates Gene Borrello's profound treachery in the Bonanno crime family and the penalties he was forced to live with. Gene Borrello's story is not something that everyone has already heard or read about or has seen on various documentaries and dramatic cable shows on the history of the Mafia. Borrello's story is current day, not something from the days of Bugsy Siegel, Albert Anastasia, and Mayer Lansky or a Mario Puzzo compilation of the old days. The Borrello saga is about a thirty-six-year-old mob enforcer who was born into the life with the true nitty gritty, unglamorous street life that led to his being locked up for a third of his life until he finally said... enough.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Little Wagons is a fictional novel that captures the turmoil of late nineteenth-century Sicily, when the reverse alchemy of greed and violence forever changed the emerging Cosa Nostra from benevolent gold into corrupted base-metal. The horrors of slavery and oppression forged revolutions and rebels in equal measure, and within this cornucopia of nepotism and brutality, hostility and passion are pitted against endemic hegemony. With protagonists as fiery as Mount Etna itself, and equally unpredictable, The Little Wagons shows how poverty and despair become the omnipotent catalysts of vengeful change.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Birth of the Athenian Community elucidates the social and political development of Athens in the sixth century, when, as a result of reforms by Solon and Cleisthenes (at the beginning and end of the sixth century, respectively), Athens turned into the most advanced and famous city, or polis, of the entire ancient Greek civilization. Undermining the current dominant approach, which seeks to explain ancient Athens in modern terms, dividing all Athenians into citizens and non-citizens, this book rationalizes the development of Athens, and other Greek poleis, as a gradually rising complexity, rather than a linear progression. The multidimensional social fabric of Athens was comprised of three major groups: the kinship community of the astoi, whose privileged status was due to their origins; the legal community of the politai, who enjoyed legal and social equality in the polis; and the political community of the demotai, or adult males with political rights. These communities only partially overlapped. Their evolving relationship determined the course of Athenian history, including Cleisthenes’ establishment of demokratia, which was originally, and for a long time, a kinship democracy, since it only belonged to qualified male astoi.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “This book exhorts the reader to embrace the materiality of archaeology by recognizing how every step in the discipline’s scientific processes involves interaction with myriad physical artifacts, ranging from the camel-hair brush to profile drawings to virtual reality imaging. At the same time, the reader is taken on a phenomenological journey into various pasts, immersed in the lives of peoples from other times, compelled to engage their senses with the sights, smells, and noises of the publics and places whose remains they study. This is a refreshingly original and provocative look at the meaning of the material culture that lies at the foundation of the archaeological discipline.”—Michael Brian Schiffer, author of The Material Life of Human Beings “This volume is a radical call to fundamentally rethink the ontology, profession, and practice of archaeology. The authors present a closely reasoned, epistemologically sound argument for why archaeology should be considered the discipline of things, rather than its more commonplace definition as the study of the human past through material traces. All scholars and students of archaeology will need to read and contemplate this thought-provoking book.”—Wendy Ashmore, Professor of Anthropology, UC Riverside "A broad, illuminating, and well-researched overview of theoretical problems pertaining to archaeology. The authors make a calm defense of the role of objects against tedious claims of 'fetishism.'"—Graham Harman, author of The Quadruple Object

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since unification in 1860, Italy has remained bitterly divided between the rich North and the underdeveloped South. This book examines the historical, literary, and cultural contexts that have informed and inflamed the debate on the Southern Question for over a century. It brings together analysis of cinema, literature, and newspaper archives to reconsider the myths and stereotypes that both Northerners and Southerners deploy in their narratives. Salvatore DiMaria offers a masterful assessment of the entangled issues that have produced the South’s image as impoverished and backwards, such as organized crime, illiteracy, and mass emigration. Documenting the state’s largely failed efforts to bring the South into its socio-economic fold, DiMaria also points to the future, arguing that the European Union and globalization are transformative forces that may finally produce a unified Italy.
