Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “1960 aims to take us deeper into the campaign than Theodore White’s famous The Making of the President, 1960. And it does.”—Chicago Sun-Times This is award-winning historian David Pietrusza's hard-edged account of the 1960 presidential campaign, the election that ultimately gave America “Camelot” and its tragic aftermath. It is the story of the bare-knuckle politics of the primaries; the party conventions' backroom dealings; the unprecedented television debates; the hot-button issues of race, religion, and foreign policy—and, at the center of it all, three future presidents: Lyndon Johnson, John F. Kennedy, and Richard Nixon. “Terrific.” —Robert A. Caro, winner of two Pulitzer Prizes and the National Book Award “A stirring, hard-edged political saga… An outstanding reexamination.”—Booklist "1960 provides new insights into that year's hard-fought, pivotal election, but, more than that, 1960 is great storytelling—a fascinating, can’t-put-it-down account of how American politics really works.”—former United States Attorney General Richard Thornburgh “Essential for understanding the political forces that in many ways shaped the world we live in today.” —David Mark, author of Going Dirty: The Art of Negative Campaigning

Book excerpt: Throughout Camelot, he is whispered to be a magician, a sorcerer, a wizard. But Merlin is merely a scholar, a practitioner of medicine, and King Arthur’s trusted advisor. Though he possesses no otherworldly abilities, his keen intellect grants him certain powers of deduction. Arthur, king of all the Britains, has not been fortunate in his marriage. His queen, Guenevere, has long kept her own court in the forbidding castle known as the Spider’s House, living there openly with the knight Lancelot. Still, even Merlin, who has little use for the pair, would never have predicted that they would plot to present themselves to the Byzantium Empire as the rightful rulers of England! They plan to announce this at Guen’s birthday celebration, to which Arthur is invited. Forewarned, King and counselor make their own plans for thwarting the two. But as the guests gather, Guenevere’s father is found murdered—and Lancelot is the prime suspect. Merlin is inclined to leave the faithless knight to his fate—yet when his king bids him to, he risks his very life to find the truth.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: State Crime in the Global Age brings together original writings from leading scholars in the field to explore the many ways that the use and abuse of state power results in grave social harms that outweigh, by far, the consequences of ordinary street crime. The topics covered include the crimes of empire, illegal war, the bombing of civilians, state sanctioned torture, state sacrifice of human lives, and judicial wrongdoing. The book breaks new ground through its examination of the ways globalization has intensified potentials for state crime, as well as bringing novel theoretical understandings of the state to the study of state crime, and exploring strategies for confronting state crime. This book, while containing much that is of interest to scholars of state crime, is designed to be accessible to students and others who are concerned with the ways individuals, social groups, and whole nations are victimized by the misuse of state power.

Book excerpt: After the conclusion of the Prohibition era, federal law enforcement became largely indifferent toward organized crime in the United States. The Justice Department and the Federal Bureau of Investigation, specifically, were primarily focused on communism and other seditious activities. This apathy toward organized crime allowed gangsters and racketeers to flourish, benefitting from the postwar economic boom. Between 1957 and the late 1980s, the federal government underwent a fundamental shift in its stance toward organized crime. The impetus for these changes came in large part from the work of Robert F. Kennedy. While serving as counsel for the Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations from 1957 - 1959, Kennedy was exposed to the problem of organized crime. It was at this point he formulated a methodology that would come to define the United States' drive against organized crime for decades. Later, as Attorney General during the administration of his brother, President John F. Kennedy, Kennedy sought to implement reforms to federal wiretap policies, immunity statutes, witness protection, and cooperation between local law enforcement and the Justice Department. Kennedy did not live to see all of these changes made, but ultimately his work provided the model for the federal government's efforts against organized crime today. Relying on government documents, hearings records, and extensive oral histories, this study concludes that while Kennedy's efforts failed to engender significant change in the short term, his legacy is defined by long term contributions to federal law enforcement which remain in effect to this day.

Book excerpt: Throughout Camelot, he is whispered to be a magician, a sorcerer, a wizard. But Merlin is merely a scholar, a practitioner of medicine, and King Arthur’s trusted advisor. Though he possesses no otherworldly abilities, his keen intellect grants him certain powers of deduction. Though he labored to help Arthur unite all of the Britons under his rule, Merlin’s work is not done. The vassal kings are a contentious, superstitious rabble, who have not easily accepted Arthur as their liege. And Arthur himself, to Merlin’s distress, is still prey to the old beliefs. He is convinced that he can bring peace and prosperity to Camelot with the Stone of Bran, an ancient skull-shaped artifact purported to be magical. But after it is stolen from the king’s own private chambers—along with the legendary sword Excalibur—and one of Arthur’s squires is brutally murdered during the theft, Merlin, along with his apprentice Colin (the maiden Nimue in disguise) must use the power of reason to conjure up a miracle and catch a murderer.

Book excerpt: From a strange, dark chapter in American political history comes the captivating story of Ted Kennedy's 1980 campaign for president against the incumbent Jimmy Carter, told in full for the first time. The Carter presidency was on life support. The Democrats, desperate to keep power and yearning to resurrect former glory, turned to Kennedy. And so, 1980 became a civil war. It was the last time an American president received a serious reelection challenge from inside his own party, the last contested convention, and the last all-out floor fight, where political combatants fought in real time to decide who would be the nominee. It was the last gasp of an outdated system, an insider's game that old Kennedy hands thought they had mastered, and the year that marked the unraveling of the Democratic Party as America had known it. Camelot's End details the incredible drama of Kennedy's challenge -- what led to it, how it unfolded, and its lasting effects -- with cinematic sweep. It is a story about what happened to the Democratic Party when the country's long string of successes, luck, and global dominance following World War II ran its course, and how, on a quest to recapture the magic of JFK, Democrats plunged themselves into an intra-party civil war. And, at its heart, Camelot's End is the tale of two extraordinary and deeply flawed men: Teddy Kennedy, one of the nation's greatest lawmakers, a man of flaws and of great character; and Jimmy Carter, a politically tenacious but frequently underestimated trailblazer. Comprehensive and nuanced, featuring new interviews with major party leaders and behind-the-scenes revelations from the time, Camelot's End presents both Kennedy and Carter in a new light, and takes readers deep inside a dark chapter in American political history.

The suspect has fled to parts unknown. And, the case has grown cold. However, Bronson is single-minded in his pursuit of the criminal who allegedly used the supposed murder weapons to kill what is now a pile of ashes. Garth Equus is also in pursuit of a woman in New Camelot. He is a Pooka looking for a wife. He'll not settle for just any wife. He wants an independent sorceress-one who can give him strong sons and daughters and tend to his farm while he pursues his duties as the High Sheriff of the Pooka Kingdom. King Wolfrick Asarlaís has decreed that men from friendly kingdoms can hunt on New Camelot lands. However, the female must be agreeable to the romantic pursuit and be wed before she leaves. Garth's quest has brought him to O'Toole's Stable where the vittles for both man and Pooka are delicious and the price is right. Gillian is a horsewoman. Large and unrefined, she has talents no human can rival. Dressed as a man, she is running for her life from a crime she didn't commit. Out of money, out of food, and out of ideas, she takes the position an unsuspecting Seleta O'Toole offers her. Conflicts abound when the justice-minded High Sheriff, a wife seeking Pooka and the real murderer are all determined to possess a most unusual woman.
