"Brody is a vigilante for hire who tracks down women's abusive husbands to repay pain with pain. He wants to help the women and doesn't like accepting their money, but he has no choice. Injured in the military and sent home, Brody needs expensive batteries to power his carotene lenses. Without them, he is completely blind. When Thorp Ashbury, an old friend from the service, invites him to rural Illinois, Brody seizes the opportunity to escape the city and violence. Instead, he uncovers a conspiracy that could shake the foundation of everything he stands for"--Page 4 of cover.

In The Monsters are Due in Madison Square Garden, as Herb Fry told his story, his friend Daniel Spiegel mentioned his own association with mobster Meyer Lansky. In Star Spangled Knuckle Duster, we hear the full story of this encounter, which pits Lansky’s boys against dark forces at work in New York. In a tale more hard-boiled than the eggs on a Seder Plate, they face the Nazis of the German American Bund, who appear to have their very own costumed comic book hero on their team. But the anti-fascist mobsters also have help in the shape of the mysterious Donna Meyrink.
In an age when crime runs rampant through the urban jungle of New York City, and the ruthless subsist by preying upon the weak, a clandestine organization of enforcers digs in its heels, and fights back. Led by the obsessed Gary Parker, the multitalented Vigilantes operate in secrecy, taking no prisoners in their never-ending crusade against the powers of corruption, injustice, and evil. From a game of cat-and mouse with the most powerful gangster on the eastern seaboard, to a blood-soaked showdown with the Chinese mafia, to a narcotics war with a rogue Mexican general, the Vigilantes are taking justice to street level. Therell be no talk of Miranda rights this evening. If the Vigilantes give you your right to remain silent, it will be by way of cutting your throat.
Olmec Art at Dumbarton Oaks presents the Olmec portion of the Robert Woods Bliss Collection of Pre-Columbian Art. It illustrates all thirty-nine Olmec art objects in color plates and includes many complementary and comparative black-and-white illustrations and drawings. The body of Pre-Columbian art that Robert Bliss carefully assembled over a half-century between 1912 and 1963, amplified only slightly since his death, is a remarkably significant collection. In addition to their aesthetic quality and artistic significance, the objects hold much information regarding the social worlds and religious and symbolic views of the people who made and used them before the arrival of Europeans in the New World. This volume is the second in a series of catalogues that will treat objects in the Bliss Pre-Columbian Collection. The majority of the Olmec objects in the collection are made of jade, the most precious material for the peoples of ancient Mesoamerica from early times through the sixteenth century. Various items such as masks, statuettes, jewelry, and replicas of weapons and tools were used for ceremonial purposes and served as offerings. Karl Taube brings his expertise on the lifeways and beliefs of ancient Mesoamerican peoples to his study of the Olmec objects in teh Bliss collection. His understanding of jade covers a broad range of knowledge from chemical compositions to geological sources to craft technology to the symbolic power of the green stone. Throughout the book the author emphasizes the role of jade as a powerful symbol of water, fertility, and particularly, of the maize plant which was the fundamental source of life and sustenance for the Olmec. The shiny green of the stone was analogous to the green growth of maize. This fundamental concept was elaborated in specific religious beliefs, many of which were continued and elaborated by later Mesoamerican peoples, such as the Maya. Karl Taube employs his substantial knowledge of Pre-Columbian cultures to explore and explicate Olmec symbolism in this catalogue.
It is 1938 and the prospect of war hangs over every London inhabitant. But the city doesn't stop. Everywhere people continue to work, drink, fall in love, fight and struggle to get on in life.

Short Brothers was established in 1908, the first British aircraft manufacturer, with the company moving to Rochester during the early years of the First World War. At Rochester Shorts produced some of their most famous aircraft, beginning with a number of designs for the Royal Naval Air Service. During the inter-war years the company specialised in large flying boats, these undertaking pioneering flights while establishing a series of regular over water air routes operated by Imperial Airways. At Rochester the Company designed and manufactured the Stirling bomber and Sunderland flying boat. Short Brothers: the Rochester Years not only looks at the development of those aircraft, but is a fascinating account of the early years of long-distance aviation and the airmen that used the River Medway at Rochester as a launch pad for flights of hitherto undreamed of distances.
