Heretic
Religious fanaticism and intolerance are perhaps the greatest evils afflicting the human race. Most of the violence in the world today and throughout history has been caused by major religions trying to exterminate those who don't share the same beliefs. In this eye-opening memoir, author Jerome Tuccille shares the story of his intensely personal struggle with the Roman Catholic Church. After turning in an essay on the Virgin Birth that claimed the Catholic Church dehumanized women, Tuccille is denounced as a heretic by the dean of a Catholic college. As a result, he abandons the religion of his youth and embarks on a global odyssey through Australia, Singapore, India, Europe, and the United States. Tuccille's adventures lead to a life of decadence and transcendental discovery. HERETIC dramatizes a tug-of-war between the sensual and the divine, revealing the constant struggle with spiritual questions that have stirred the minds and hearts of thoughtful people since time began.
Trump
Donald J. Trump's remarkable energy and vision have changed the face of our world. Here is his story, the story of the Queens-born grandson of a Swedish immigrant who bought his first properties while still in college and moved on to become among the nation's biggest "movers and shakers" before the age of forty. 12 pages of photos. Fine.
It Usually Begins with Ayn Rand
In It Usually Begins With Ayn Rand, Jerome Tuccille takes the reader on a “hilarious romp through the wild and kooky reaches of the libertarian right,” according to Publisher's Weekly. Along the way he explodes many myths surrounding leading right-wing heroes, including Ayn Rand, Barry Goldwater, William F. Buckley, Jr., Ronald Reagan, and many others. He doesn't spare himself from the satirist's pen either, describing in detail his comic run for Governor of New York in 1974—an adventure that ended in near bankruptcy and personal turmoil.“[Tuccille] is damned funny. His book is a quick read; its pages turn quickly. This is pop history, not deep theory, so most of the pauses in the re...
The War Against the Vets
“Who Murdered the Vets?” writer Ernest Hemingway demanded in an impassioned article about the deaths of hundreds of former soldiers. Their fate came as part of the larger and often overlooked story of veterans of the Great War and their deplorable treatment by the government they once served. Three years earlier, under orders from President Herbert Hoover, General Douglas MacArthur led the U.S. military through the streets of the nation’s capital against an encampment of veterans and their families. The vets were suffering the ravages of the Great Depression and seeking an early payment of promised war bonuses. Tanks, troops, and cavalry burned down tents and leveled campsites in a sav...

Gallery of Fools
The story told in this book is true. It is based on the theft of eight Impressionist masterpieces from a Manhattan art gallery. The paintings were hidden in my father's cellar in the Throgs Neck section of the Bronx for about two years until my wife and I removed them. My cousin and his partner were arrested for their roles in the crime. I have taken some fictional liberties in the reconstruction of dialogue that occurred some time ago, and in the invention of details that most likely happened during breaks in the main action of the story. An author always has a decision to make about whether to present a book like this as fiction or nonfiction. I have decided to publish this story as a memoir rather than as a novel since the story told in these pages is basically true.
King of Media
In King of Media bestselling author Jerome Tuccille tells for the first time the extraordinary story of the visionary yet tenacious man who revolutionized the entertainment industry. After starting out in the mailroom at the William Morris Agency in the 1960s, Diller joined ABC Television where his swift rise through the ranks earned him almost immediate recognition and chairmanship of Paramount Pictures. There he oversaw such film classics as Saturday Night Fever, Grease, and Raiders of the Lost Ark, as well as the TV shows Laverne & Shirley and Taxi. However, Diller made his most indelible mark on the industry when in 1987 he formed FOX TV, which went head to head with the existing network...
The Double
Call it fact. Call it fiction. Call it faction, if you like. The story told in these pages is fiction based on fact. A while back, an elderly Scotsman named Philip Jacobs approached the author with this story. Philip lived in Glasgow when Rudolf Hess, Deputy Fuehrer of the Third Reich, crash-landed his plane in a field outside the city. Philip was a young reporter at the time and he swore that the story you are about to read is true in all its essentials. Tuccille has presented Philip's story as a novel, but the only liberties taken are in dialogue that has been invented by the author. This book is dedicated to the memory of Philip Jacobs, who lived through the events portrayed in these page...
