William Warren Scranton, Pennsylvania Statesman
William Warren Scranton's long and distinguished career marks him as one of the foremost political figures to have emerged from Pennsylvania in this century; yet surprisingly this book is the first biography of a man whose reputation extends well beyond the borders of his home state. Indeed, this Pennsylvanian has brought honor to his state at both the national and international levels and has won the affection and respect of observers from all segments of the political spectrum. The scion of a wealthy, aristocratic family, Bill Scranton began his public life in the city that bears his family name.

Warren William
On the motion picture screen, Hollywood star Warren William (1894-1948) was a magnificent rogue, often deliciously immoral and utterly callous, yet remarkably likable in his wickedness. Off-screen, the actor was as humble and retiring as his film characters were mean and heartless. This biography examines William's life and career in detail, from his rural Minnesota roots through his service in World War I, his Broadway stage success, and his meteoric rise and gradual fall from Hollywood fame in the 1930s and 1940s. Also analyzed are his film persona and the curious mechanisms by which our culture "selects" certain film personalities to remember and others to forget. Featured is a wealth of biographical material never before available, including rare candid photos of William's early years. Interviews with his surviving nieces provide intimate family details and personal remembrances.

A Test of Will
On the night of April 9, 1997, Warren Macdonald, a fit and experienced bushwalker, set out to climb Mount Bowen on Hinchinbrook Island, an unspoiled tropical paradise off the Australian coast. These would be his last steps as a fully intact human being: a freak rock fall pinned him for two days alone under a one-ton boulder, resulting in a double leg amputation. A Test of Will is a story both tragic and inspiring, conveying the horror of what happened and the extraordinary spirit that helped Macdonald survive a seemingly impossible ordeal.
Confederate Home Front
