The Confession of Lucifer, Fallen Angel
In 1496, Father Koutrakos is the acting abbot on the monastic island of Mount Athos, Greece. A monk arrives, hoping to give confession, but the father soon learns the monk is actually Satan in disguise. He has come to confront the man, so after revealing himself, Satan lays forth his angelic confession. He wishes to know if he can be absolved of sin and of his very existence. His opinions of mankind and his angelic point of view on spiritual matters cause Father Koutrakos to question all he has come to believe. Five hundred years later, failed book scout Sean Wilde receives a strange phone call. Someone is willing to pay him a lot of money if he will steal a rare book. Sean is soon caught up in an international book heist involving a mysterious book collector, an Italian thief, and even the Smithsonian. The devil's confession is desperately sought, but will Sean be prepared to fathom what he finds?
Playing for Their Nation
"Steven R. Bullock describes how virtually every significant American military installation around the world boasted formal baseball teams and leagues designed to soothe the anxieties of combatants and prepare them physically for battle. Officials also sponsored hundreds of exhibition contests involving military and civilian teams and tours by major league stars to entertain servicemen and elevate their spirits."--BOOK JACKET.

Vivian Maier
Please note that all blank pages in the book were chosen as part of the design by the publisher. A good street photographer must be possessed of many talents: an eye for detail, light, and composition; impeccable timing; a populist or humanitarian outlook; and a tireless ability to constantly shoot, shoot, shoot, shoot and never miss a moment. It is hard enough to find these qualities in trained photographers with the benefit of schooling and mentors and a community of fellow artists and aficionados supporting and rewarding their efforts.

Vivian Maier: The Color Work
The first definitive monograph of color photographs by American street photographer Vivian Maier. Photographer Vivian Maier’s allure endures even though many details of her life continue to remain a mystery. Her story—the secretive nanny-photographer who became a pioneer photographer—has only been pieced together from the thousands of images she made and the handful of facts that have surfaced about her life. Vivian Maier: The Color Work is the largest and most highly curated published collection of Maier’s full-color photographs to date. With a foreword by world-renowned photographer Joel Meyerowitz and text by curator Colin Westerbeck, this definitive volume sheds light on the nature of Maier’s color images, examining them within the context of her black-and-white work as well as the images of street photographers with whom she clearly had kinship, like Eugene Atget and Lee Friedlander. With more than 150 color photographs, most of which have never been published in book form, this collection of images deepens our understanding of Maier, as its immediacy demonstrates how keen she was to record and present her interpretation of the world around her.
