Three Years Lost in Space
Mark Goddard, the author of To Space and Back, looks back fifty years to the three years he spent on Lost in Space. This book reveals the personal thoughts and memories of the author, Mark Goddard in relation to various aspects of the Jupiter 2, costuming and the cast. Thirty-one selected episodes of the series are written in a unique way by both the "real" Mark and his "reel" character, Don West. This book has been written especially with the loyal fans of Lost in Space in mind.
To Space and Back
What made Mark Goddard kidnap a wooden Indian? Why was he arrested for carrying a Colt 45 in Boston? How did he deal with his infant daughter's disappearance? "Danger, danger Will Robinson" is a phrase Mark Goddard often heard in his role as Major Don West in the 1960's hit television series Lost in Space. During his real life, the phrase he should have heeded was "Danger, danger Mark Goddard." This memoir maps Goddard's roundtrip journey from a small town boy to a TV star and back again recounting humorous anecdotes about co-stars and celebrities like Billy Mumy, Peter Fonda, Buddy Hackett, and Jim Brown. This trip gets bumpy along the way, though, with two failed marriages and a career nosedive before Goddard has the realization that changes his life. Told with humor and candor, To Space and Back gives the reader a roller coaster ride equal to any side trip the Jupiter II took on its way to Alpha Centauri.

Folk Opposition
For David Cameron and ‘Big Society’ Tories, folk culture means organic food, nu-folk pop music, and pastoral myths of Englishness. Meanwhile, postmodern liberal culture teaches us that talking about a singular ‘folk’ is reductive at best, neo-fascist at worst. But what is being held in check by this consensus against the possibility of a unified, oppositional, populist identity taking root in modern Britain? Folk Opposition explores a renewed contemporary divide between rulers and ruled, between a powerful elite and a disempowered populace. Using a series of examples, from folk music to football supporters’ trusts, from Raoul Moat to Ridley Scott, it argues that anti-establishment populism remains a powerful force in British culture, asserting that the left must recapture this cultural territory from the far right and begin to rebuild democratic representation from the bottom up. ,
Gideon's Chariot
Gideon's Chariot is a novel that crosses genre boundaries in a wonderfully unexpected way. Starting out, it reads like a hard-nosed crime novel; then the author phases in a bit of science fiction, to keep you on your toes; and then--just as you think you're getting your bearings--faith is questioned, devotion, repentance...the end of days. The characters that Wygant has created are very three dimensional. Their back-stories, personalities, and physical characteristics are well-established and consistent; and individual enough to be memorable. The relationships between the characters also seem strongly believable. Gideon's Chariot is a good read, with a unique and interesting concept. Who is Gideon, an angel or an alien? If alien, does this call into question our societal (or religious) belief in angels? What if scripture was based on beings who were thought to be divine, but who were actually extraterrestrial?
