Book excerpt: 10-Year Anniversary Edition now available in: Hardcover - Paperback - Kindle Work your way through the ranks of the restaurant business- Learn & perfect every position- Now get behind the bar... And stay there whether you like it or not. I've done it all. In dozens of restaurants, bars, night-clubs, private parties & special events... They wanted me. I was the best. But is this life behind bars, that I created, going to kill me? Doesn't matter. It's all I know & there's nowhere else to go. This is the story of my life... as it is, as it was & as it probably will be. This is- my...Life behind Bars. In 2004, I set out to write a book about "my...Life." Little did I know, my...Life would be changed forever in 2005. By 2011, I had finished writing the book and was anxious to share it with the world. I rushed it and the editing errors were a distraction from the story. In 2015, better editing was done. And in 2021, even more. The reviews so far, have it at an average 4-star rating, but most mention the editing issues. Those have been addressed and what is available today is clean and something I'm very proud of. The 10-Year Anniversary Edition, is, essentially, a Large-Print collectors' item for those that have read the book in the past, but had problems. Mostly, it's a celebration of trying something new and hope to do more of. Please remember to rate & review and keep an eye out for my 2nd book, coming soon. Thank You - The Author

Download or read book Wonderful World of Percussion written by Emil Richards and published by . This book was released on 2013-04 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During a span of 55 years, Emil Richards has been a renowned presence in Hollywood soundstages, recording studios, jazz clubs and international touring venues. Considered a supreme artist on the vibraphone, marimba and xylophone, as well as a master of his world-famous collection of percussion instruments, Richards is renowned throughout the world for his versatility. This book's lifetime of insightful and hilarious experiences include years with Frank Sinatra and George Harrison, as well as many anecdotes involving Burt Bacharach, Elvis Presley and Ravi Shankar, as well as most major recording artists. Richards' chronology roughly categories the book's chapters into decades, with the 1960s mainly involving album recording, television shows in the '70s and films in the '80s and '90s. A parallel career means stories emanating through playing with George Shearing, Paul Horn, Stan Kenton and Roger Kellaway, as well as Igor Stravinsky and Richards' own group Calamari. There are warm recollections of the great film composers, including Henry Mancini, Alex North, Jerry Goldsmith and John Williams, who all collaborated at finding a unique sound at Richards' warehouse before composing. Salad bowls used in "Planet Of The Apes," gongs lowered into fluid for space movies and many other unusual sonic effects will flash readers back to decades of favorite movies. From an astonishing family history and grim days growing up in Hartford, Connecticut, through wild tours with Sinatra to Europe, Japan and Egypt, and visits to the Maharishi in India, Richards' entertaining, direct style perfectly complements this wealth of inside experiences. ________________________________________ "Throughout the many years of his long and distinguished career, Emil Richards consistently brought adventure, joy and discovery to all of his music making. His new book is a valuable addition to the documentation of a period of great creativity in American music." - John Williams "I have no doubt that if you have even the slightest interest in movies or music, you will find that Emil's stories are as inspirational as they are funny, and most importantly, you will discover one of the greatest souls ever to grace the music industry." - Michael Giacchino "Emil has played on .... I have no idea, maybe 60 or 70 scores of mine. He never disappoints and continues to amaze me. When it comes to percussion, Emil has always and always will be an irreplaceable original. ...The Man! ....The One and Only." - Danny Elfman

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In December 2008, twentysomething Jill Grunenwald graduated with her master’s degree in library science, ready to start living her dream of becoming a librarian. But the economy had a different idea. As the Great Recession reared its ugly head, jobs were scarce. After some searching, however, Jill was lucky enough to snag one of the few librarian gigs left in her home state of Ohio. The catch? The job was behind bars as the prison librarian at a men’s minimum-security prison. Talk about baptism by fire. As an untested twentysomething woman, to say that the job was out of Jill’s comfort zone was an understatement. She was forced to adapt on the spot, speedily learning to take the metal detectors, hulking security guards, and colorful inmates in stride. Over the course of a little less than two years, Jill came to see past the bleak surroundings and the orange jumpsuits and recognize the humanity of the men stuck behind bars. They were just like every other library patron—persons who simply wanted to read, to be educated and entertained through the written word. By helping these inmates, Jill simultaneously began to recognize the humanity in everyone and to discover inner strength that she never knew she had. At turns poignant and hilarious, Reading behind Bars is a perfect read for fans of Orange is the New Black and Shakespeare Saved My Life.

Download or read book My Truth Behind Bars written by Sr David Iván Gálvez C. and published by . This book was released on 2024-05 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book was developed during the six and a half years (2014-2020) that I remained unjustly incarcerated in four state prisons: San Quentin, Pelican Bay, Stockton, and Mule Creek, California. For a horrendous crime I did not commit, and I was practically compelled to testify otherwise. In the following texts, I will weave bitter dawns behind cells that describe simple everyday events, moments, and stages of my life, difficult to accept, difficult to conceive, of a simple man taken to an extreme of his human condition. Such were the routines I experienced, that they led me to change many knowledge and theoretical reflections that had guided me in the exercise of my profession. Likewise, I was uncomfortable with overturning these regimented and "methodologically correct" styles since I was certain that these realities could not be "translated" into simple subjects and objects of memory. Beyond specific words, series, and meanings, I have become convinced that the best way to express reality was to expose it as such, without filtering it in methods or operations, and I opted for a story that transfigured and adapted a certain reality to a general language, understandable and apprehensible by all: I found the literary language. I don't dare to call this text either a legend or an experience, but I did find in these lines a bit of both genders. If you're looking for a secret, this isn't a book for you.

Download or read book A Day in Prison written by John Fuller and published by Skyhorse. This book was released on 2017-07-04 with total page 171 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Twenty-four hours is a lot of time in prison, and here is a moment to moment guide of how each one goes by. A Day in Prison shows what life is like for prisoners from morning roll call to lights out. It tracks the many ins and outs of prison culture and provides a comprehensive look into the dynamics that define inmates’ daily interactions with each other, prison guards, and prison administrators. It gives a full sense of the challenges—small and large—presented to inmates as they try to survive each day. The book is structured like an actual day in prison, hour by hour, tracking where in the prison a prisoner would most likely be and what they would most likely be doing. It brings a clear sense of the unique environment that is a prison and makes sense of it for the reader, step-by-step. Based in the author’s own experience, being incarcerated for eleven years, it is as realistic a guide to life in prison as any reader could have.

Download or read book Profiles from Prison written by Michael G. Santos and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2003-06-30 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written by an inmate serving 45 years for a drug conviction when he was 23, this is an in-depth view living behind bars from the perspective of prisoners themselves. Sections of the book are based on length of imprisonment. Prisoners in Fort Dix, N.J., detail their unique experiences, thoughts, and feelings about life on the inside. Some describe the actions that lead to their confinement, or detail the complexities of living in all-male communities. Others reveal the ways they cope with their terms, or the expectations they have for life after prison. Santos offers the gripping stories of men serving a variety of terms, providing commentary and analysis as he guides readers through the prison experience. How men adjust to their confinement, and how they utilize their time while serving their sentences, can be a predictor of future success or failure both in prison and society upon their release. Through these often-difficult accounts, readers gain a greater understanding of what it means to be a prisoner, and how the system itself can contribute to both positive adjustment and negative outcomes alike.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Shaken not stirred," we have all heard the saying. It is part of what makes Ian Fleming's super spy James Bond so super. It is not the fact that he drinks martinis, it is how he drinks them that matters. Cocktails are about style and in today's complicated world of drink many of us need a lifestyle guide. 20 Years Behind Bars is that guide; part trade manual and part psychological introspective, it combines real life observations (by a real life bartender) with facts and information in an amusing and irreverent fashion. Take one part Mr. Boston's bartending guide, one part Anthony Bourdain's Kitchen Confidential, a dash of Steve Dublanica's Waiter Rant, combine and you have the pure entertainment that is 20 Years Behind Bars.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 20 year struggle of a bipolar bartender in ChicagoYou've been to restaurants. You've sat, you've eaten, you've had a good time.Have you ever really thought about the people that bring you your food, the people that make your drinks, the people that do this kind of work everyday?Have they had a good day a bad day, is their life treating them well, did they do something to my food? Don't worry that almost never happens, but what kind of people are they really?The real people in the business deal with all kinds of people at all levels of tolerance and understanding. It's hard sometimes to not just hate everyone. To do this kind of work it takes a certain kind of person and that kind of person generally knows how to blow off steam. They know how to not take things too seriously, they know how to have fun, they joke and play with their coworkers, they are a rare breed.Not unlike anyone else that has worked in a restaurant, nightclub, or bar, I've seen and experienced some really crazy shit. This business can drop you into a lifestyle like no other. Add obvious, but untreated and undiagnosed bipolar disorder and the lifestyle is amplified.Those in the medical field can probably relate to the long hours, lack of sleep and just plain bizarre events, but at the end of the day they can always say they were trying to help. We see people at their worst and help them get there. Then, all too often, go there ourselves.Check out My life Behind bars. (2nd Edition) on facebook

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "August First, Nineteen Hundred and Eleven!" To you that probably conveys nothing; to me it is a never-to-be-forgotten day, the marking of an epoch in my life-a life up to that time brimful of tragic experience and vivid impressions. Since that time my life has been equally vivid, if not tragic, though in a different way. It was on that date, after spending ten years behind stultifying steel bars and stolid stone walls, ten years in stripes and in the midst of degradation, that I was parole from San Quentin prison.
