ROBERT G. "BOB" LAWSON had a long and remarkable career: over 50 years, he taught thousands of law students; counseled lawyers, judges, and University of Kentucky presidents; authored three books; drafted Kentucky's criminal code and rules of evidence; and campaigned against harsh sentences and jail overcrowding. In all his endeavors, Lawson brought to bear the values he learned growing up in a loving family in Whitman Creek, a West Virginia coal camp-work hard, be responsible, exercise good judgment, and act for the welfare of others. In The Man from Whitman Creek, William H. "Bill" Fortune recounts the people, places, and values that influenced and shaped Lawson-son, student, family man, l...

Once upon a time in Spain, there was a little bull and his name was Ferdinand . . . Unlike all the other little bulls - who run, jump, and butt their heads together in fights - Ferdinand would rather sit under his favourite cork tree and smell the flowers. So what will happen when Ferdinand is picked for the bull fights in Madrid? Beloved all over the world for its timeless message of peace, tolerance and the courage to be yourself, this truly classic story has never been out of print in the US since its release in 1936. Hitherto unpublished in the UK and now a major motion picture.
It has been a while since Folks lived in the Big House, and an even longer time has passed since there has been a garden at the House.

The bastard step-child of Milton Friedman and Anthony Bourdain, Socialism Sucks is a bar-crawl through former, current, and wannabe socialist countries around the world. Free market economists Robert Lawson and Benjamin Powell travel to countries like Venezuela, Cuba, Russia, and Sweden to investigate the dangers and idiocies of socialism—while drinking a lot of beer.
Following the success of his 2016 book Razama-Snaz! The Listener’s Guide to Nazareth, Robert Lawson returns with this meticulous reviewing of every Cheap Trick album, song by song. In his book, Still Competition: The Listener’s Guide to Cheap Trick, Lawson outlines the band’s significant television appearances, live shows, and more with the attention to detail only a super fan could provide. A dedicated follower, Lawson has assembled this reference guide out of a love of music and a dedication to fellow fans, but he is not without criticism (often humourously so) when the rockers fall short of his high expectations. He shines the spotlight indiscriminately, which makes him all the more credible a witness to the band’s lengthy career. Lawson also seeks input from some of the world’s greatest Cheap Trick and classic rock fans, who share stories from epic live shows. Fellow classic rock devotees will love this manual on Cheap Trick’s highs, lows, and everything in between.
