Plays by Steven McCann
The world of the theater has had a magical allure for me, ever since that afternoon as an eighteen-year-old wandering around mid-town with several hours of my hands before my bus’s departure, I purchased a matinee ticket to see, ‘Man of La Mancha.’ Although I’ve spent almost all of my life as a writer creating novels and short fiction, I have always loved seeing live theater and reading the works of O’Neill, Miller, Williams, Lorraine Hansberry, Chekhov, Shaw and Shakespeare, among others. Great theater brings together great writing and all the brilliant effects of the live stage; actors whose voices, gestures, laughter, shouts, and whispers are as close and tangible as those of the people you live with; the genius of costume design, lighting and stage sets that carry you to a completely different realm, using no more space than the area of your living room. The three of mine in this volume, a comedy and two others, mixing comedy with elements of tragedy, make up my second book of plays. Together with the first, they are my contribution to that magical world I love no less than I love the world of great fiction.
Let's Dance
Let's Dance: A Celebration of Ontario's Dance Halls and Summer Dance Pavilions is a nostalgic musical journey, recapturing the unforgettable music of youth and lasting friendships, the days when the live mellow sounds of Big Bands wafted through the air -- Louis Armstrong, the Dorsey Brothers, Bert Niosi, Art Hallman, Johnny Downs, Mart Kenney, Bobby Kinsman, Ronnie Hawkins .... Throughout the 1920s to the '60s, numerous legendary entertainers drew thousands of people to such memorable venues as the Brant Inn in Burlington, Dunn's Pavilion in Bala, the Stork Club at Port Stanley, to the Club Commodore in Belleville and the Top Hat Pavilion in North Bay -- and the hundreds of other popular dance venues right across Ontario. From the days of jitney dancing through the introduction of jazz and the Big Bands era to the sounds of some of Ontario's best rock groups, people of all ages came to dance and some to find romance on soft summer nights.
Tilting at Mortality
Craig's approach - yoking subject matter and narrative strategies - distinguishes this book from others about Heller's work, which essentially thematize. By contrast, Craig uses Heller's abiding concern with mortality to open previously unexplored areas of his fiction.

Thunderbolt
He has been called the greatest American general since U.S. Grant (by Sir Robert Thompson) and the world's champion tank commander (by Gen. George S. Patton, Jr.). Yet the general public knows relatively little about this man who, for more than four decades, in three wars and in peacetime, demonstrated the skill, courage, integrity, and compassion that made him a legend in his profession. In Thunderbolt, Lewis Sorley brings us the definitive biography of Gen. Creighton Abrams, the man who commanded U.S. forces in Vietnam during the withdrawal stage and for whom the Army's main battle tank is named. This new Brassey's Five-Star Paperback places the complex and sophisticated Abrams and his many achievements within the context of the Army he served and ultimately led, and of the national and international events in which he played a vital role. It is a stirring portrait of the quintessential soldier and of the transformation of the U.S. Army from the horse brigades of the 1930s to the high-tech military force that ultimately emerged victorious in the Gulf War.
