Seasons in Basilicata
Award-winning travel writer and illustrator, David Yeadon embarks with his wife, Anne on an exploration of the "lost word" of Basilicata, in the arch of Italy's boot. What is intended as a brief sojourn turns into an intriguing residency in the ancient hill village of Aliano, where Carlo Levi, author of the world-renowned memoir Christ Stopped at Eboli, was imprisoned by Mussolini for anti-Fascist activities. As the Yeadons become immersed in Aliano's rich tapestry of people, traditions, and festivals, reveling in the rituals and rhythms of the grape and olive harvests, the culinary delights, and other peculiarities of place, they discover that much of the pagan strangeness that Carlo Levi and other notable authors revealed still lurks beneath the beguiling surface of Basilicata.

Most people think their life is without purpose or cannot find their purpose. I Am RoME is my purpose in life. Since Birth, My life has become a never-ending roller coaster, and I'm still on it. This book has always been in the works because stories of the similar paths have been sugarcoated and no one really knows the real deal. It's not always perfect. I want this book to reach people that have gone or is going through similar things that I went through or just simply show things from my point of view. Life will have many barriers but you have the power to alter the path. As many times, I felt like I failed myself and others, I'm always reminded that I'm still learning and I still have the opportunity to make the most of my life. This is who I am.

Don't Move
A novel about a surgeon whose daughter is rushed to the hospital following an accident. In his distress, he admits he had a love affair.
Freedom to Die
The strength of the right-to-die movement was underscored as early as 1991, when Derek Humphry published Final Exit, the movement's call to arms that inspired literally hundreds of thousands of Americans who wished to understand the concepts of assisted suicide and the right to die with dignity. Now Humphry has joined forces with attorney Mary Clement to write Freedom to Die, which places this civil rights story within the framework of American social history. More than a chronology of the movement, this book explores the inner motivations of an entire society. Reaching back to the years just after World War II, Freedom to Die explores the roots of the movement and answers the question: Why now, at the end of the twentieth century, has the right-to-die movement become part of the mainstream debate? In a reasoned voice, which stands out dramatically amid the vituperative clamoring of the religious right, the authors examine the potential dangers of assisted suicide - suggesting ways to avert the negative consequences of legalization - even as they argue why it should be legalized.
