Without Remorse
"After the suicide of Vernon Butts, a freeway killer who was housed in the Los Angeles County men's jail, the Los Angeles Mental Health Department was determined to keep the Los Angeles serial killers alive. Vonda Pelto, a psychologist, was selected for the task. Vonda's assignment was to meet with the serial killers daily and prevent them from harming themselves. Without Remorse traces Vonda's surreal experience as she balanced a family life while spending her days with such notorious killers as Kenneth Bianchi (Hillside Strangler) and William Bonin (Freeway Killer) among others. During those years she developed personal relationships with these men and recorded her observations."--BOOK JACKET.
James Munro
Like Forrest Gump, Jim Munro grew up with multiple physical and mental handicaps to overcome. Unlike Gump, who was a likable movie hero and was liked in real life, Jim Munro was never liked - not by his American parents who adopted him from a German orphanage and then discarded him, nor by those who knew about his lifestyle and association with Bill Bonin, California's Freeway Killer. To unravel Jim Munro for this book, it was necessary to include graphic descriptions of his activities and behaviors, including when he was in the wrong place at the wrong time with Bill Bonin and the body of one of Bonin's many young male victims. That mistake resulted in almost 40 years in prison at this writing, despite that he never killed or injured anyone. Accomplice or victim or both? You be the judge.
Hollywood Highbrow
Today's moviegoers and critics generally consider some Hollywood products--even some blockbusters--to be legitimate works of art. But during the first half century of motion pictures very few Americans would have thought to call an American movie "art." Up through the 1950s, American movies were regarded as a form of popular, even lower-class, entertainment. By the 1960s and 1970s, however, viewers were regularly judging Hollywood films by artistic criteria previously applied only to high art forms. In Hollywood Highbrow, Shyon Baumann for the first time tells how social and cultural forces radically changed the public's perceptions of American movies just as those forces were radically chan...

Raye of Light

In his junior season in 1966, Raye was Michigan State's first black starting quarterback and the first black quarterback from the South to win a national title. The story of Raye's journey, as well as those of his Spartan teammates and coach Duffy Daugherty, is told in Raye of Light: the first book to fully explain Duffy Daugherty's Underground Railroad and its impact on college football.

The Freeway Killer
The Freeway Killer: The Socking True Story of Serial Killer William Bonin America: home of the free, land of the brave. Thousands of screaming fans pack into baseball games, football (not soccer!) stadiums, and rock concerts. Americans like loud music, fast cars, and women with more plastic in them than the cutlery they use at Fourth of July picnics. But America has another claim to fame. Killers. Sure, the rest of the world has turned in some iconic killers, from Jack the Ripper to Osama Bin Laden. But killers and serial killers, in general, are as American as apple pie. The F.B.I. theorizes that there are anywhere between twenty-five and fifty serial killers active in the United States of ...
