Book excerpt: FROM BESTSELLING AUTHOR CAMERON JUDD—TWO NOVELS THAT BREATHE NEW LIFE INTO THE OLD AMERICAN WEST The Quest of Brady Kenton Western reporter Brady Kenton has made his living with the power of his pen—capturing the conflict and the courage of the American frontier. But there's one story that has always eluded Kenton: the truth behind his wife's purported death in a fiery train crash. Victoria Kenton's body was never found. Now, a nervous young Englishwoman has shown up in Leadville, claiming to be Kenton's long-lost daughter. The truth about Victoria's fate may be close at hand...but so is a killer. Kenton's Challenge Brady Kenton is dead. Or is he? The man whose pencil and sketchbook brought the living, breathing frontier into the homes of thousands of magazine subscribers, Kenton has been eulogized in the very publication he worked for. But one man—his sidekick and publisher, Alex Gunnison—knows the real story. But he cannot guess how many desperate people have already been swept up in Brady Kenton's secret war, and how far one man will go to see Kenton die...again.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Confederate Gold Enoch Brand never met a fight he couldn't resist. His wife Minnie had the same problem with men. Then Minnie finally ran off from Enoch, while the two were headed home to Tennessee. Now Enoch has gone charging after her—running straight into a gun battle, a one-handed ex– Confederate soldier, and a storm of lies, betrayal, and greed that all comes down to one thing: a a fortune waiting to be claimed. The only trouble is, it's killing those who want it most. . . Dead Man's Gold In a remote mining camp in California's rugged Sierra Mountains, a small group of men, women, and children are weathering a slow winter—until a band of trigger-happy, whiskey-slugging thieves comes in search of stolen gold. But what these ruffians didn't count on is having to reckon with the Underhills in a fiery battle that will leave some six feet under...and others rich beyond their wildest dreams.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt:  In American Westerns, the main characters are most often gunfighters, lawmen, ranchers and dancehall girls. Civil professionals such as doctors, engineers and journalists have been given far less representation, usually appearing as background characters in most films and fiction. In Westerns about the 1910 Mexican Revolution, however, civil professionals also feature prominently in the narrative, often as members of the intelligentsia--an important force in Mexican politics. This book compares the roles of civil professionals in most American Westerns to those in films on the 1910 Mexican Revolution. Included are studies on the Santiago Toole novels by Richard Wheeler, Strange Lady in Town with Greer Garson and La sombra del Caudillo by Martin Luis Guzman.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With over one million of his books in print, Cameron Judd is one of today's foremost authors of the American West. Here Judd pens a compelling historical novel with the elements of mystery, ghost story, and Western woven brilliantly together. Welcome to Leadville. A melting pot of Irish and Swedes, steelworkers and scam artists. Growing faster than it can bear, tainted by the soot of smelters and the smell of whiskey, Leadville is the town where two reporters carrying pencils, pads and six-guns will meet their match. Brady Kenton, America's foremost traveling reporter, has come to the violent mining town to sniff out a story for Gunnison's Illustrated American. Alex Gunnison, son of the famous publisher, comes along for the ride, as Kenton's assistant and to keep the trouble-seeking journalist out of harm's way. But with a dead body found and lost, and an innocent boy running from a killer, the two men have more than a story on their hands. They're searching for a Civil War criminal who may be alive and well in Leadville-and up to his killing ways again...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Outsider musicians can be the product of damaged DNA, alien abduction, drug fry, demonic possession, or simply sheer obliviousness. This book profiles dozens of outsider musicians, both prominent and obscure—figures such as The Shaggs, Syd Barrett, Tiny Tim, Jandek, Captain Beefheart, Daniel Johnston, Harry Partch, and The Legendary Stardust Cowboy—and presents their strange life stories along with photographs, interviews, cartoons, and discographies. About the only things these self-taught artists have in common are an utter lack of conventional tunefulness and an overabundance of earnestness and passion. But, believe it or not, they're worth listening to, often outmatching all contenders for inventiveness and originality. A CD featuring songs by artists profiled in the book is also available.

Book excerpt: Compared to such Western giants as Max Brand, Luke Short, and Louis L'Amour, he has been called the New Voice of the Old West. With over one million of his books in print, Cameron Judd powerfully brings to life, as no one else can, the struggles of a generation of Americans on a harsh and beautiful frontier. The year-old mining town had a rich vein of silver and a heart of darkness. For in the middle of Snow Sky was a man possessed by hatred and violence, and passing himself off as a minister. Now Tudor Cochran, the honest husband of a worried woman, has come to Snow Sky to ask some questions about a sad-looking boy who stopped at the Cochrans' inn. And what Cochran finds in Snow Sky is a gathering of enemies, strangers and conspirators who have all come together around one man's violent past and deadly future. For Cochran, there is only one way out of Snow Sky: by helping an outgunned sheriff separate the truth from a storm of lies-and the innocent from the damned...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Addressing a wide range of improvised art and music forms—from jazz and cinema to dance and literature—this volume's contributors locate improvisation as a key site of mediation between the social and the aesthetic. As a catalyst for social experiment and political practice, improvisation aids in the creation, contestation, and codification of social realities and identities. Among other topics, the contributors discuss the social aesthetics of the Association for the Advancement of Creative Musicians, the Feminist Improvising Group, and contemporary Malian music, as well as the virtual sociality of interactive computer music, the significance of "uncreative" improvisation, responses to French New Wave cinema, and the work of figures ranging from bell hooks and Billy Strayhorn to Kenneth Goldsmith. Across its diverse chapters, Improvisation and Social Aesthetics argues that ensemble improvisation is not inherently egalitarian or emancipatory, but offers a potential site for the cultivation of new forms of social relations. It sets out a new conceptualization of the aesthetic as immanently social and political, proposing a new paradigm of improvisation studies that will have reverberations throughout the humanities.

Lewis, Ingrid Monson, Tracey Nicholls, Winfried Siemerling, Will Straw, Zoë Svendsen, Darren Wershler

Book excerpt: By 1884, a new type of fencing called barbed wire—or, as ranchers deemed it, devil wire—is making more enemies than good neighbors in the American West. Jim Hartford, a failed farmer from Tennessee, is looking for a new beginning in Miles City, Montana. What he finds is a territorial disagreement that erupts in bloodshed. A local cattle baron has hired a renegade group of fence-cutters who turn out to be a band of grudge-holding murderers...and now it's up to Jim to put his life on the line not only to avenge the death of his brother, but to save the woman he loves from the deadly barbs of hatred and greed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For more than a century, original music has been composed for the cinema. From the early days when live music accompanied silent films to the present in which a composer can draw upon a full orchestra or a lone synthesizer to embody a composition, music has been an integral element of most films. By the late 1930s, movie studios had established music departments, and some of the greatest names in film music emerged during Hollywood’s Golden Age, including Alfred Newman, Max Steiner, Dimitri Tiomkin, and Bernard Herrmann. Over the decades, other creators of screen music offered additional memorable scores, and some composers—such as Henry Mancini, Randy Newman, and John Williams—have become household names. The Encyclopedia of Film Composers features entries on more than 250 movie composers from around the world. It not only provides facts about these artists but also explains what makes each composer notable and discusses his or her music in detail. Each entry includes Biographical material Important dates Career highlights Analysis of the composer’s musical style Complete list of movie credits This book brings recognition to the many men and women who have written music for movies over the past one hundred years. In addition to composers from the United States and Great Britain, artists from dozens of other countries are also represented. A rich resource of movie music history, The Encyclopedia of Film Composers will be of interest to fans of cinema in general as well as those who want to learn more about the many talented individuals who have created memorable scores.
