Phil Ochs has his troubles. His adult son is a failed artist who's targeting him in a terroristic poetry campaign, his wife has developed an addiction to As Seen On TV gadgets, and a professional rival is poaching managers from his seventeen Fry Buddy fast food franchises. Worst of all, Phil is a southern conservative who shares a name with a famous liberal folksinger. It's this lifelong association, he believes, that's denied him the respect he's always craved. Who could take him seriously, after all, when his name evokes thoughts of that radical hippie tree-hugger? When he loses a coveted business award to a producer of testicular implants for neutered pets, Phil is finally through being disrespected. He devises a scheme that's certain to bring him notoriety. Whether that means becoming a figure of admiration or of national hatred will all depend on how well he conceals the more depraved elements of his plan. The Decadents is a darkly satirical novel featuring a cast of unique and unforgettable characters.
What? Los Angeles was the original wine country of California, leading the state's wine production for more than a century? Los Angeles County was the agricultural center of North America until the 1950s? And where today's freeways soar, cows calmly chewed their cud? How could that be? Los Angeles, the capital of asphalt and Klieg lights, was once a paradise filled with grapevines and bovines, so abundant with Nature's gifts that no one could imagine a more pastoral place? Los Angeles County was the center of an agricultural empire. Today, it is the nation's most populous urban metropolis. What happened? Where did the green go? As Americans connect with gardens, farmers markets, and urban farms, most are unaware that each of these activities have deep roots in Los Angeles, and that the healthy food they savor literally had its roots in L.A. This book is for all who treasure the country's agrarian history.

Discover the heartwarming and diverse tales of unexpected love in 'How They Met,' a captivating collection of real stories that transcends genres, inviting readers of all backgrounds to believe in the timeless magic of serendipity and the enduring power of love. You never know when it might happen: love might be right around the corner, down the block, or across the aisle from you on your next flight. Stories of how people met are endlessly fascinating and they remind us that we all need to be ready for anything, including meeting the love of your life when you least expect it. After a devastating break up, Broadway composer and beloved songwriter, David Friedman, embarked on a decade-long journey collecting couple’s stories of “how they met” as a therapeutic project. What Friedman learned was utterly surprising - there was always an element of serendipity—planning had nothing to do with it. Along the way, what started out as a path to moving forward became a mission to better understand matters of the heart.In this study of how people found true love, Friedman talks to people from every walk of life, from devout churchgoers to same-sex couples to celebrities. Among others, How They Met shares the right-time-right-place story of how Lucie Arnaz met her famous husband, Laurence Luckinbill, and the unexpected tale of Kathie Lee and Frank Gifford’s friendship blossoming into romance. Sometimes funny, oftentimes moving and always surprising, How They Met will have you believing that love will find YOU.
Since the 1960s, Charles Chadwyck-Healey has been at the forefront of library publishing and the company he founded in 1973 remains a familiar brand name to academic libraries around the world.
