Hanging Out With the Dream King
The most intimate look yet into the life and mind of the bestselling author and creator of The Sandman. Neil Gaiman is one of the most successful and versatile writers working today. He has become renowned not only for the consistently high quality of his writing but for his mastery of many media. He is an award-winning comic book writer (Sandman), novelist (American Gods), children's book author (The Wolves in the Walls), and television screenwriter (Neverwhere). Yet with all the fans hungry to know more about his work, there has not yet been a single major nonfiction book covering Gaiman's entire creative output. Until now.

Radical Pacifism
This deeply researched book is the first history of the War Resisters League, an organization that represents the major vehicle of secular radical pacifism in the United States. Besides opposing all U. S. wars and championing conscientious objection to these wars, Scott H. Bennett shows how the WRL—led by its colorful members—functioned as a “movement halfway house,” assisting and influencing a variety of social reform groups and campaigns. He devotes special attention to WWII conscientious objectors (COs) who staged dramatic wartime work and hunger strikes in Civilian Public Service camps and prisons against Jim Crow, censorship, conscription, and other policies. These radical COs moved the postwar WRL in new directions—and transformed radical pacifism. By recovering the important links between the WRL and the peace, civil rights, civil liberties, and antinuclear movements, Bennett demonstrates the social relevance and political effectiveness of radical pacifism. He emphasizes the WRL’s most important legacy: its promotion, legitimization, and Americanization of Gandhian nonviolent direct action, which infused the postwar peace and justice movements.

Edwin B Massey Jr's Goodship Lollipop
Edwin B Massey Jr's GOODSHIP LOLLIPOP is a compelling compendium of powerful and richly profound poetry, spanning 1989-1996, composed by an exceptionally powerful free-form poet of extraordinary depth, vision and voice. Writing in free verse-in incredibly intimate yet ever truthful terms-Edwin traverses the vast length and breadth of art, history, literature, music and even mythology in speaking poetry that's as humanistic as it is majestic in its simplicty. He is and remains the true poetic MINSTREL of the San Francisco East Bay community, who so prodigiously yet unspeakably expounds more upon the spoken than the written word, leaving his readers struck with wonder and craving devouringly for more -Joseph Covino Jr, Publisher, Epic Press
