Book excerpt: Almost everyone who has visited Nantucket can recite its official history. But very few know the real reasons why things turned out as they did. Why the British first came to Nantucket and why the Indians let them in. Why Nantucket eclipsed all other ports in whaling wealth and why its fortunes ultimately fell. How the tiny hamlet of 'Sconset saved Nantucket from becoming a near ghost town. The true mission of a top secret Navy Base at Tom Nevers, the attempted Federal takeover of the whole island in 1972, and three unrelated events that triggered Nantucket's recent real estate feeding frenzy. In Tom Never's Ghost you'll gain a fresh new understanding of the Island's history, both past and present, and learn much that has never been reported before, all in a lively historical narrative format that goes well beyond a straight history to connect all the dots. At 288 pages, the book is illustrated with 32 historical maps and photos.

Book excerpt: In The Narrow Door, Paul Lisicky creates a compelling collage of scenes and images drawn from two long-term relationships, one with a woman novelist and the other with his ex-husband, a poet. The contours of these relationships shift constantly. Denise and Paul, stretched by the demands of their writing lives, drift apart, and Paul's romance begins to falter. And the world around them is frail: environmental catastrophes like the Deepwater Horizon oil spill, natural disasters like the earthquake in Haiti, and local disturbances make an unsettling backdrop to the pressing concerns of Denise's cancer diagnosis and Paul's impending breakup. Lisicky's compassionate heart and resilience seem all the stronger in the face of such searing losses. His survival--hard-won, unsentimental, authentic--proves that in turning toward loss, we embrace life.

Book excerpt: Many of the stars of silent westerns were young horse wranglers who left the open fields to make extra money bulldogging steers and chasing Indians around arenas in traveling Wild West shows. They made their way to Hollywood when the popularity of the Wild West shows began to decline, found work acting in action-packed silent westerns, and became idols for early moviegoers everywhere. More than 100 of those cowboys who starred in silent westerns between 1903 and 1930 are highlighted in this work. Among those included are Art Acord, Broncho Billy Anderson, Harry Carey, Fred Cody, Bob Custer, Jack Daugherty, William Desmond, William Duncan, Dustin Farnum, William Farnum, Hoot Gibson, Neal Hart, William S. Hart, Jack Holt, Jack Hoxie, Buck Jones, J. Warren Kerrigan, George Larkin, Leo Maloney, Ken Maynard, Tim McCoy, Tom Mix, Pete Morrison, Jack Mower, Jack Perrin, William Russell, Bob Steele, Fred Thompson, Tom Tyler, and Wally Wales, to name just a few. Biographical information and a complete filmography are provided for each actor. Richly illustrated with more than 300 movie stills.

An ancient evil so rooted in the story of their ancestors, it'd be impossible to dig up.Our demons to share.Will the secret remain buried, or will Simi and Abel finally learn the truth? Does knowing the truth do anything to stop the evil from spreading?Sometimes they be locked away, where no one can see 'em, outter sight.Sometimes they be a droolin' face, starin' in through 'yer winder, in the dead of the night!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spenser investigates a case that hits dangerously close to home in this latest installment of Robert B. Parker’s beloved series. Spenser is waiting out the latest Boston snowstorm when he gets word that Rita Fiore has been shot. Rita’s always been a tricky one: flirting with Spenser for years, she’s an ever-present figure that transcends friendship in Spenser’s circle. But at the end of the day, Rita is family. And family will always be protected. Both a pit bull in the courtroom and provocateur outside it, Rita is no stranger to controversy. But as one of the city’s toughest lawyers, Spenser knows that there’s no short list of suspects who might want to enact revenge. With Rita’s life hanging in the balance, it’s up to him to get to the bottom of things, even if it means unearthing some unsavory secrets that might just lead him into an age-old game of lies and deceit.

Book excerpt: THE END of the summer before, Annette Sotherby, daughter of one of the wealthy summer people on Netaquid Island has been kidnapped under mysterious circumstances and returned under even stranger circumstances. The Netaquidders, who earned a scant livelihood from the sea and from working for the summer people, spent days looking for Annette. Yet once she had been returned, there had been no word of thanks. Instead, the cottagers seemed determined to ignore the islanders. But that changed when Mr. and Mrs. Truell both had to leave and there was no one to care for Sammy Truell, except the Collettis, the old Italian couple who could not keep up with an active four year old. So Molly Bassett was hired. And it was not long before she began to learn just why things were so tight for islanders. The Kidnapping had had strange consequences she was not supposed to talk about, and the islanders were implicated. It was up to Molly not only to discover the truth of what had happened the year before, but ultimately to solve a brand new and even more disastrous kidnapping in order to bring the islanders once more into favor with the summer people and give them a chance to earn the money they so desperately needed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first Merry Folger Nantucket mystery When Rusty Mason, scion of one of Nantucket's oldest and wealthiest families, is found dead in a flooded cranberry bog one foggy fall night, thirty-two-year-old detective Merry Folger is faced with her first murder case. Merry is the daughter of the local police chief and granddaughter of his predecessor; her father is a strict boss and Merry feels pressure to go the extra mile to prove her promotion to detective isn’t just nepotism. But the Mason murder is a demanding first test. Merry’s investigation brings to light all the tensions that plague the tiny community of Nantucket: the decades-old grudges, the skyrocketing real estate that only wealthy weekenders can afford, the resentments of the old Nantucket families who are barely keeping their homes and heritage fishing businesses alive. But Merry knows the island and its politics in a way only a local can.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More than any other sport, baseball has developed its own niche in America's culture and psyche. Some researchers spend years on detailed statistical analyses of minute parts of the game, while others wax poetic about its players and plays. Many trace the beginnings of the civil rights movement in part to the Major Leagues' decision to integrate, and the words and phrases of the game (for example, pinch-hitter and out in left field) have become common in our everyday language. From AARON, HENRY onward, this book covers all of what might be called the cultural aspects of baseball (as opposed to the number-rich statistical information so widely available elsewhere). Biographical sketches of all Hall of Fame players, owners, executives and umpires, as well as many of the sportswriters and broadcasters who have won the Spink and Frick awards, join entries for teams, owners, commissioners and league presidents. Advertising, agents, drafts, illegal substances, minor leagues, oldest players, perfect games, retired uniform numbers, superstitions, tripleheaders, and youngest players are among the thousands of entries herein. Most entries open with a topical quote and conclude with a brief bibliography of sources for further research. The whole work is exhaustively indexed and includes 119 photographs.
