As Time Goes By
As Time Goes By is a work of fiction with an historical base. Did you ever wonder what it would be like to go back in time to visit a hero, someone who encapsulated the values of a time you see as romantic, critical, or dangerous, but may still represent a solution to a personal or professional dilemma because their actions were timeless? This novel relates one man's adventure in time.

Menacing Face Worth Millions: A Life of Charles Bronson
Menacing Face Worth Millions: A Life of Charles Bronson is the first definitive biography of legendary screen actor Charles Bronson. Charles Bronson was the silver screen legend who forever changed America's - and the world's - idea of the leading man's looks: a poverty-stricken young man who became one of the most popular, highly-paid film stars of his day. No movie that Charles Bronson ever made can equal the reclusive life he led and the contradictions of his own hidden self. In this definitive retelling of Bronson's life - the first fully documented biography of the star - Brian D'Ambrosio looks at the vigilante tough guy's life and legacy and explores the events and issues that made him emblematic of his time.
The Age of Sex Crime
The sexualized serial murder of women by men is the subject of this provocative book. Jane Caputi argues that the sensationalized murders by men such as Jack the Ripper, Son of Sam, Hillside Strangler, and the Yorkshire Ripper represent a contemporary genre of sexually political crimes. The awful deeds function as a form of patriarchal terrorism, "disappearing" women at a rate of some four thousand annually in the United States alone. Caputi asks us not only to name the phenomenon of sexually political murder, but to recognize sex crime in all of its various interconnecting manifestations.
Threads of Our Inheritance
This work has been written for my/our children, grandchildren, great grandchildren, and on, and to my siblings and their children, with love, so that each may know one strand of the complex whole of his or her life. Each life has myriads of strands that twist together to make the thread of what composes one individual. Here I have attempted to relate what I remember and have gathered from others about those who made it possible for each of us to live. The following story of people and happenings are central to who I am and who all of you are or may become.
Terror on the Air!
The macabre world of monsters, killers on the loose and revenge from beyond the grave existed not only in the movies, but also on the radio before television's dominance in American homes. One of many distinct genres born of early broadcasting, terror-inspiring radio thrilled millions. Nearly 80 such programs, many of enduring sophistication, aired every week in the late 1940s. This first full-length study of golden age horror radio focuses on six representative programs, starting with The Witch's Tale in 1931 and ending with The Mysterious Traveler in 1952. Each chapter is a critically and historically informed study of one series. The book ends with a look at the demise of horror radio and its enduring influence. Photographs are included.
