From the initial rigors of Parris Island to actual combat conditions at Guadalcanal—here is an enlisted man’s true, firsthand account of what it was like to be a Marine during World War II. Here are the fears, the moments of triumph and joy, the gamut of emotions in those facing danger and death on the battlefield. Here is the true story of a long, cruel, holding operation...fought with too little equipment and too few men. Avoiding overdose horror themes, bedroom scenes, and needless profanity, T. Grady Gallant reveals the innermost thoughts and experiences of a band of rough and rugged men—the men of the First Division, Fleet Marine Force, who invaded Guadalcanal and won for America her first land victory of World War II. “A great book”—Leon Uris “A fine, rare book”—Burke Davis “A book all Marines will enjoy”—Robert Sherrod

Predestined Bryna is an orphan slave in the fortress of a Roman invader, her only friend an ancient, blind Druidess, Derina, who tells her she must rescue the prisoner in the dungeon.

The Dark Chieftain awaits a destiny of his own—mating with the territorial goddess, a union that will set the land and many lives aright. First he must gain his freedom and find her. Fey Born Lana is a frail farm girl magically fated to be a fey host for the sword spirit Valor.

Keegan never expects to meet his match in the small, spirited beauty he needs to guide him to the sword. Lana must find the strength to face her mysterious fate and claim a guardian’s heart. White Fells Boyden, a warrior of the Tuatha De Danann, is one of the few born of the idir, the between. With the power to summon the bringer of death in the form of a fey wind, he could kill an invader seeking vengeance for a wrongful death—and all living creatures—but he vows to find another way. Princess Scota, a confident warrior princess, does not believe in anything fey until she meets her people’s latest captive, Boyden, a proud male whose defiant nature she cannot tame. In a twist of fate, she becomes captive instead of captor. In a land covered in blood, the two battle for a truce between their warring people.
The many con men, gangsters, and drug lords portrayed in popular culture are examples of the dark side of the American dream. Viewers are fascinated by these twisted versions of heroic American archetypes, like the self-made man and the entrepreneur. Applying the critical skills he developed as a Shakespeare scholar, Paul A. Cantor finds new depth in familiar landmarks of popular culture. He invokes Shakespearean models to show that the concept of the tragic hero can help us understand why we are both repelled by and drawn to figures such as Vito and Michael Corleone or Walter White. Beginning with Huckleberry Finn and ending with The Walking Dead, Cantor also uncovers the link between the American dream and frontier life. In imaginative variants of a Wild West setting, popular culture has served up disturbing—and yet strangely compelling—images of what happens when people move beyond the borders of law and order. Cantor demonstrates that, at its best, popular culture raises thoughtful questions about the validity and viability of the American dream, thus deepening our understanding of America itself.

The high rates of Black arrests and incarceration from 1960-1990 were a direct result of deliberate government policies and a zealous criminal justice system, under the patriotic umbrella of the War on Crime. This stateside war shared a lot of similarities with the Vietnam war happening simultaneously: racism and extreme cruelty towards those seen as the enemy, deprecation of the others' culture, forceful use of a militarized police with combat experience, repeated failure to observe human rights, and mass incarceration. Unfortunately, this conflict continued long after the Vietnam war ended. Ronald L. Morris reviews those dark times, analyzing their causes, short- and long-term effects, and calls for change.
