A day-by-day look at the years from 1965 to 1970 reveals the remarkably rich story of the Monkees, one of the most successful pop bands of the 1960s.

Follow the band's short but explosive career in this examination that includes exclusive interviews with each member of the group, details of recording sessions, filming commitments, concert performances, other public appearances, and over 100 photographs and illustrations.

Bee Gees
Taking the form of a journal chronicling all of the Bee Gees important events, including recording sessions, concerts, television appearances, radio shows and record releases, The Bee Gees Day-By-Day Story: 1945-1972 is the most in-depth look at the early years of this international phenomenon. The product of six years of intensive research, the book takes readers into the recording studio and through the on-tour mania that surrounded the Bee Gees' earliest tastes of fame. Along the way, the author offers a one-of-a-kind look at the trio s creative process from birth to the big time. Among the highlights of this comprehensive history are details of lost songs, aborted film and television projects, rare releases featuring their involvement and dozens of seldom seen illustrations. The book contains exclusive interviews with Barry Gibb, Robin Gibb, Maurice Gibb and early band member Vince Melouney. Sure to be the definitive reference book on the early days of the Bee Gees, Andrew Sandoval is uniquely qualified to pen this volume, having overseen the restoration and reissue of the band s classic material.
Hotel
When George Washington embarked on his presidential tours of 1789-91, the rudimentary inns and taverns of the day suddenly seemed dismally inadequate. But within a decade, Americans had built the first hotels--large and elegant structures that boasted private bedchambers and grand public ballrooms. This book recounts the enthralling history of the hotel in America--a saga in which politicians and prostitutes, tourists and tramps, conventioneers and confidence men, celebrities and salesmen all rub elbows. Hotel explores why the hotel was invented, how its architecture developed, and the many ways it influenced the course of United States history. The volume also presents a beautiful collectio...

The Lofts of SoHo
A groundbreaking look at the transformation of SoHo. American cities entered a new phase when, beginning in the 1950s, artists and developers looked upon a decaying industrial zone in Lower Manhattan and saw, not blight, but opportunity: cheap rents, lax regulation, and wide open spaces. Thus, SoHo was born. From 1960 to 1980, residents transformed the industrial neighborhood into an artist district, creating the conditions under which it evolved into an upper-income, gentrified area. Introducing the idea—still potent in city planning today—that art could be harnessed to drive municipal prosperity, SoHo was the forerunner of gentrified districts in cities nationwide, spawning the notion ...
Hollywood, Interrupted
Hollywood, Interrupted is a sometimes frightening, occasionally sad, and frequently hysterical odyssey into the darkest realms of showbiz pathology, the endless stream of meltdowns and flameouts, and the inexplicable behavior on the part of show business personalities. Charting celebrities from rehab to retox, to jails, cults, institutions, near-death experiences and the Democratic Party, Hollywood, Interrupted takes readers on a surreal field trip into the amoral belly of the entertainment industry. Each chapter — covering topics including warped Hollywood child-rearing, bad medicine, hypocritical political maneuvering and the complicit media — delivers a meticulously researched, interview-infused, attitude heavy dispatch which analyzes and deconstructs the myths created by the celebrities themselves. Celebrities somehow believe that it's their god-given right to inflict their pathology on the rest of us. Hollywood, Interrupted illustrates how these dysfunctional dilettantes are mad as hell... And we're not going to take it any more.
