Book excerpt: Max Maartinesz is a history professor. He is single and lives alone. Make of that what you will, is what he would say. His life is by and large ordered and very comfortable. But he always has the distinct impression that something is missing. Perhaps a bit of spice? Lillian Selby is a librarian. She works at the Manchester Central Library. She lives alone in a small maisonnette in Rusholme, which has been her home since she was an undergraduate at university. Her life is quiet, ordered, mostly solitary, quite mundane. Then they both go on the most hair-raising, life-threatening adventures, through the maleficent offices of Propitious Peregrinations ®. Although their separate experiences occur a quarter of a century apart, they learn that they have more in common than one might think. For instance, each took the trouble to set down in writing, for the edification of the general public, an account of their tribulations. Each also formed life altering connections that were equally all too abruptly severed. Now Max and Lillian proceed together on a common quest to tie up loose ends left hanging from their previous sojourns. Dare we hope that, this time, they might experience truly propitious peregrinations? Frankly, what are the odds?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The history of the Roanoke Valley during the 1940s has largely been unexplored until now. This significant decade bore witness to the birth of the local civil rights movement, the impact of World War II and the postwar boom in public projects and private development. The J-Class locomotives, Carver School, Woodrum Field, Victory Stadium, Carvins Cove, the Roanoke Star, the end of streetcars, and the advent of drive-in theaters all marked the decade. Crowds thronged to see the biggest names in radio, film and music at the American Legion Auditorium, the Academy of Music and the Roanoke Theatre, while Major League baseball and professional football brought exhibition games to Maher Field and Victory Stadium. Local historian Nelson Harris provides a detailed account of this dynamic decade along with 300 archival photographs.

Book excerpt: This history takes factual information provided by encyclopedias and other historical documents. Other reference material includes birth certificates, death certificates and census data which support the factual basis of this history. The war records and military history of individuals and their family members were also used in the determination of their contributions to the society in which they lived. Other research material included Wikipedia, Ancetry.com, wikitree.com, genealogy.com family bibles and my many brothers and sisters. Two directions of ancestry history were investigated to gain the most effective approach to the design of this history. First the genealogy of Amye Grenville was traced to her origin of Charlemagne. Her marriage to John Drake VI allowed further investigation into his ancestry. Both were thoroughly pursued with vigor to determine their origins over the last 1300 years. The investigation provided by Earl Drake combined with my efforts has provided this history for your enjoyment.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Published in 1980, Blacks in Blackface was the first and most extensive book up to that time to deal exclusively with every aspect of all-African American musical comedies performed on the stage between 1900 and 1940. An invaluable resource for scholars and historians focused on African American culture, this new edition features significantly revised, expanded, and new material. In Blacks in Blackface: A Sourcebook on Early Black Musical Shows, Henry T. Sampson provides an unprecedented wealth of information on legitimate musical comedies, including show synopses, casts, songs, and production credits. Sampson also recounts the struggles of African American performers and producers to overcome the racial prejudice of white show owners, music publishers, theatre managers, and booking agents to achieve adequate financial compensation for their talents and managerial expertise. Black producers and artists competed with white managers who were producing all-Black shows and also with some white entertainers who were performing Black-developed music and dances, often in blackface. The chapters in this volume include: An overview of African American musical shows from the end of the Civil War through the golden years of the 1920s and ’30s New and expanded biographical sketches of performers Detailed information about the first producers and owners of Black minstrel and musical comedy shows Origins and backgrounds of several famous Black theatres Profiles of African American entrepreneurs and businessmen who provided financial resources to build and own many of the Black theatres where these shows were performed A chronicle of booking agencies and organized Black theatrical circuits, music publishing houses, and phonograph recording businesses Critical commentary from African American newspapers and show business publications More than 500 hundred rare photographs A comprehensive volume that covers all aspects of Black musical shows performed in theatres, nightclubs, circuses, and medicine shows, this edition of Blacks in Blackface can be used as a reference for serious scholars and researchers of Black show business in the United States before 1940. More than double the size of the previous edition, this useful resource will also appeal to the casual reader who is interested in learning more about early Black entertainment.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many cultures accept that a person may die and then come back to life in another form, but Westerners have traditionally rejected the idea. Recently, however, surveys conducted in Europe indicate a substantial increase in the number of Europeans who believe in reincarnation, and numerous claims of reincarnation have been reported. This book examines particular cases in Europe that are suggestive of reincarnation. The first section provides a brief history of the belief in reincarnation among Europeans. The second section considers eight cases from the first third of the twentieth century that were not independently investigated, but were reported and sometimes published by the persons concerned. The third section covers 32 cases from the second half of the twentieth century that were investigated by the author. Many of these cases involved either children who exhibited unusual behavior attributed to a previous life, or adults who experienced recurrent or vivid dreams attributed to a previous life. In the fourth section, the author compares European cases suggestive of reincarnation with those of other countries and cultures.

Book excerpt: It's 1974. Detective Inspector Fatima Dieng has been in Shechester, the largest city in the northwest of England, for some time. She is feeling very frustrated. If it’s not the job, it’s the family. Things had been so much easier in that sleepy little West Country town where she, her husband, Adama, and their daughter, Hadidjatou, used to live, and where she had charge of a small, relatively smoothly functioning police station. Life had indeed been better in Silbury. Now her daughter was at university, and her husband just moped around the house all day without a job, without friends, and resentful of the antisocial hours that Fatima, no longer in uniform, has to keep. At work, in fact, things are really no better. The Shechester and Pepford Criminal Investigation Department has been split into a number of teams, each competing with the others for points awarded on successful conclusion of cases, leading to both the prospect of career advancement and the pick of juicier, higher profile cases in the future. Fatima’s team is the most racially diverse in all of Shechester and Pepford CID, not to mention the most talented and innovative, as one would expect, given Fatima’s own superior leadership capabilities. They are called upon to investigate some extremely complex cases, many of them having some connection to security threats posed by civil strife in Northern Ireland spilling over into many parts of the rest of the United Queendom. But, much like one of the local football teams, Shechester United, the team languishes at the bottom of the CID league table, largely due to running interference from Fatima’s superior officers and so-called colleagues in other teams. It all comes to a point where her very own future as a police officer looks to be in jeopardy. This is the third book in the series about the world of Inspector Fatima Dieng. The others were Silbury 1966 and Silbury 1969.

Book excerpt: A jaw-dropping story of how a girl from the suburbs ends up in a prince's harem, and emerges from the secret Xanadu both richer and wiser At eighteen, Jillian Lauren was an NYU theater school dropout with a tip about an upcoming audition. The "casting director" told her that a rich businessman in Singapore would pay pretty American girls $20,000 if they stayed for two weeks to spice up his parties. Soon, Jillian was on a plane to Borneo, where she would spend the next eighteen months in the harem of Prince Jefri Bolkiah, youngest brother of the Sultan of Brunei, leaving behind her gritty East Village apartment for a palace with rugs laced with gold and trading her band of artist friends for a coterie of backstabbing beauties. More than just a sexy read set in an exotic land, Some Girls is also the story of how a rebellious teen found herself-and the courage to meet her birth mother and eventually adopt a baby boy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Danny Harper could never see himself as a one-woman kind of guy. As a teenager, he often had a girl on each arm, a beer in each hand and a betting slip in his back pocket. He graduated to become a gambling, drinking womanizer who could care less about settling down with anyone - anyone, that is, until he meets Sara Gillespie. Finally discovering the woman who makes his life worth more than poker chips and tequila shots, Danny throws aside his wicked vices of weekly nights with the boys (and the occasional party girl!) for a lifetime of for better or worse with the remarkable Sara. Follow the lives of Danny and Sara as they learn the ropes of what it's like to be married...with children. See how they manage to deal with the stresses, aches and pains of their first pregnancy while struggling to maintain control of their work, their relationship and, above all, their sanity. A lighthearted look at the most confusing time in a man's life, The Male Survival Guide to Pregnancy will entertain, if not enlighten! Lee Hobin is a financial advisor from Bolton, England, who always had the desire to become a writer. The Male Survival Guide to Pregnancy is his first published book. He has survived two pregnancies with his wife, Ruth, resulting in two wonderful daughters, Alexandra and Francesca.
