Confessions of a Real Estate Man

By: Brian Dickens Barrabee

Confessions of a Real Estate Man By: Brian Dickens Barrabee Confessions of a Real Estate Man is a collection of some unusual stories and observations from a man with more than forty years in the real estate business. Seeing people where they “feather their nest” gave the author a unique perspective not seen by many. Hopefully the readers will see that we’re all very flawed and it’s important to see the humor in our human folly.

Friend or Foe

1916: Which side are you on?

By: Brian Gallagher

It's time to choose: friendship, family or loyalty to the cause. When Emer Davey saves her neighbour Jack Madigan from drowning, it seems that they will be friends forever. But eight months later, they find themselves on opposite sides in a life-or-death struggle, as Dublin is torn apart by the Easter Rising. Emer's father is an officer in the Irish Volunteers who believes that armed rebellion is the only way to gain independence from Britain. His daughter has inherited his passion and is determined to help the rebels in any way she can. Jack's dad is a sergeant in the Dublin Metropolitan Police. They share a deep respect for the law and are sure that Home Rule can be achieved through peaceful politics and helping with the war effort. These two young friends find their loyalties challenged as the terrifying reality of war sets in – and the Rising hits closer to home than either could have imagined.

The Falcon’s Shadow

By: Brian Sanders

The world’s most infamous drug trafficker, Carlos Falcon, has hidden his identity for decades. He has now hatched a nefarious plan which had been years in the making. He wants to cripple the industry that has made him wealthy and to put the man of his choosing in the White House. As his first step, Falcon has taken hostage the niece of the ambitious U.S. Senator Justin Winfield and twelve other members of a medical mission team working in rural Mexico. With the Senator and his family in the grip of paralyzing fear and his presidential dreams threatened, the Senator places all his worldly hopes on the ability of a connected associate, Jack Delaney, to help fulfill Falcon’s bizarre and murderous demands. Once a high-flying entrepreneur, Jack’s idyllic oceanside life is unraveling due to a series of financial misfortunes. Desperate to hide his financial demise from his supportive wife, Jack accepts the Senator’s request for his help simply for the money. However, once he discovers that one of the hostages is a lifelong friend, missionary Charlie Jacobs, this mission becomes personal for Jack. Very personal. With the clock ticking and the lives of thirteen people hanging in the balance, Jack hurls himself into this dark underworld to save the hostages.

Transforming Teaching and Learning with Active and Dramatic Approaches

Engaging Students Across the Curriculum

By: Brian Edmiston

A CHOICE Outstanding Academic Title 2014! How can teachers transform classroom teaching and learning by making pedagogy more socially and culturally responsive, more relevant to students’ lives, and more collaborative? How can they engage disaffected students in learning and at the same time promote deep understanding though high-quality teaching that goes beyond test preparation? This text for prospective and practicing teachers introduces engaging, innovative pedagogy for putting active and dramatic approaches to learning and teaching into action. Written in an accessible, conversational, and refreshingly honest style by a teacher and professor with over 30 years' experience, it features real examples of preschool, elementary, middle, and high school teachers working in actual classrooms in diverse settings. Their tales explore not only how, but also why, they have changed the way they teach. Photographs and stories of their classroom practice, along with summarizing charts of principles and strategies, both illuminate the critical, cross-curricular, and inquiry-based conceptual framework Edmiston develops and provide rich examples and straightforward guidelines that can support readers as they experiment with using active and dramatic approaches to dialogue, inquiry, building community, planning for exploration, and authentic assessment in their own classrooms.

Ghosts of Pocatello

Haunted History from the Gate City

By: John Brian

A small Idaho town with larger-than-life spirits is investigated by a founding member of the Scientific Paranormal Investigative Research Organization. From the Native American tribes who first inhabited the land to the gold rush prospectors who flocked to the burgeoning town in the 1860s, Pocatello’s legacy is defined by fascinating historical figures and colorful characters. But many restless souls from the city’s past refuse to fade quietly into history. Join author John Brian as he records the voices and visions that haunt Pocatello today. Whether it’s the long-dead theater devotee who still attends shows at Frazier Hall, the specter of a woman who evaded a judge at the Bannock County Courthouse, or the many spirits that haunt a farm built on sacred Shoshoni tribal land, this collection proves that the Gate City is flooded with ghosts. Includes photos! “The stories in the book, Brian explains, are not reminiscent of exaggerated late-night horror flicks, but rather, the real life stories from the people who experienced them.” —Idaho State Journal

Tempered Souls

By: Brian Massatt

Firefighter, Logan Milner, drives to the fire station, unaware that the fate of the world rests on his shoulders. Judgment day is here, and the devilish Jack Chance has been given Logan to prove the weakness of the mortal soul. Tempered Souls follows Logan's 24-hour shift from hell. With the help of Luther Creek, a homeless drifter that has his own score to settle with Jack Chance, Logan faces the temptations thrown in his path. Author, Brian Massatt has a knack for placing modern characters in classical epics. In his first novel, Knights of the Red Cross, Massatt subtly compared local firefighters with dragon slaying knights. In Tempered Souls Massatt uses his 20 years of experience to put you in a firefighter's boots while exploring good and evil forces that drive us all.

Somebodies and Nobodies

By: Brian Turner

Honest and insightful, this memoir is a revealing picture of our recent past, of sport and poetry, the spirit of New Zealand's south and its distinctive people. This is the story of a typical Dunedin childhood, surrounded by 'nobies' - an extended family of eccentric grandparents and uncles, cousins and neighbours - who made a huge impact on a young mind. It's also the story of a not-so-typical family that was fanatical about sport - cycling, hockey, cricket, golf, fishing - and went on to produce top-ranking sportsmen. It's also the story of the growth of one of New Zealand's most loved poets. It shows three boys who became somebodies, but no better nor worse than the nobodies who inspired them. This is Brian Turner's view of the world: the landscape and people he was surrounded by; the principles he was taught; his sporting achievements; the early development of his brothers; his time moving between jobs as distinct as rabbiting in Central Otago and working in Customs; and his entry into the world of books.

Escape to Pagan

The True Story of One Family's Fight to Survive in World War II Occupied Asia

By: Brian Devereux

The true story of a soldier who survived Japanese capture, a sinking hell ship, and the bombing of Nagasaki, all while his family fought their own battle in the Burmese jungle. While leading an attack on Hong Kong’s Golden Hill, Jack Devereux of the Royal Scots is shot through the head. Then a Japanese officer attempts to behead him in order to blood his samurai sword. Waking briefly, Devereux kills his would-be executioner, impressing his captors. Fascinated by their prisoner’s grisly wounds, they allow him to live, but Devereux’s trials are only beginning. In a precarious physical state, the wounded soldier experiences the horrific sinking of the Japanese freighter LisbonMaru, in which hundreds of POWs drown; survives the shark-infested South China Sea; and burrows in the mines of Nagasaki as the atom bomb falls. Meanwhile, his family hides in Burma, hoping against hope that they will one day be reunited with Devereux. Written by his son, Brian Devereux—whose mother carried him from Mandalay to the deserted medieval city known today as Bagan—this is an amazing account of the terrifying wartime journey of a soldier and his family.

The Legend of the Lowcountry Liar

And Other Tales of a Tall Order

By: Brian McCreight

Welcome to South Carolina's Lowcountry, the so-called “Netherlands of the South," where good tales grow like sweet-grass and the truth is as tricky as the Devil himself. Author Brian McCreight recounts thirteen tall tales told to him by his friend Jim Aisle, the Lowcountry Liar, whose homespun Southern yarns weave fact and fiction like the Gullah women make sweet-grass baskets. These tales are for telling aloud; the funny and the fantastic betide true Southern characters in a style as smooth as morning on the Stono River. Hear from Jim the stories of Brave Bob and his encounter with the ne'er-do-wells at the old mansion; of Lazy Lowcountry Jack and his troubles earning his keep and following his mama's orders; and learn about the Native American boy way back when whose hungry fishing trip wound up supplying food for all the coastal peoples. Jim even tells his own story: a firsthand account of a foggy morning on Buzzard's Roost Point, an area strictly off-limits to all but the conjure men and root doctors who work their magic there.

Wild Beyond Belief!

Interviews with Exploitation Filmmakers of the 1960s and 1970s

By: Brian Albright

Exploitation filmmakers played a significant role in revolutionizing American cinema during the 1960s and early 1970s, churning out a string of independent Westerns, biker films, nudie-cuties and horror flicks in record times and often on shoestring budgets. With titles like Horror of the Blood Monsters, Cycle Savages and The Incredible 2-Headed Transplant, these films pushed the boundaries of acceptable on-screen violence and nudity and kept the American theater industry afloat as several major studios teetered on the brink of financial collapse. This work tells the story of that "other" Hollywood through interviews with 16 directors, performers, screenwriters, and stuntmen who helped bring these zero-budget films to the screen against incredible odds. The interviews give insights into exploitation filmmaking from the perspectives of pioneering directors Al Adamson and Jack Hill, actors Jenifer Bishop and Robert Dix, and stuntmen Gary Kent and Gary Littlejohn, and others. The work includes more than 50 photographs, including many rare behind-the-scenes images of the filmmakers on set.

Talbot Mundy, Philosopher of Adventure

A Critical Biography

By: Brian Taves

This critical biography chronicles both the actual travels and the philosophical meanderings of Talbot Mundy, one of the pioneers of the fantasy and adventure genre. Less celebrated than his contemporaries Rudyard Kipling and Joseph Conrad, Mundy was no less gifted when it came to the literary portrayal of faraway lands. He was one of the first Western writers to show an appreciation of Eastern culture, and his writing became an outlet for his radical ideas on religion and philosophy. At the age of sixteen, Mundy left his native England to begin his life of adventure--a journey that took him from India to the Middle East to Tibet and finally to America, which became his adopted home. The American spirit of adventure matched Mundy's own, and it was here that he found a true audience for his work. This book explores Mundy's oeuvre--much of it set in exotic locales through which he himself had traveled--and considers both his novels and his lesser known writing, as well as his film and radio work. Books such as Rung Ho!, King-of the Khyber Rifles, Caves of Terror, Purple Pirate and Tros of Samothrace are discussed and placed within the framework of Mundy's life and philosophy. The final chapter evaluates the enduring value of his writings. Appendices include a comprehensive list of Mundy's works and a chronological listing by their original publication dates.

Encyclopedia of Film Noir

By: Geoff Mayer,Brian McDonnell

When viewers think of film noir, they often picture actors like Humphrey Bogart playing characters like Sam Spade in The Maltese Falcon, the film based on the book by Dashiell Hammett. Yet film noir is a genre much richer. The authors first examine the debate surrounding the parameters of the genre and the many different ways it is defined. They discuss the Noir City, its setting and backdrop, and also the cultural (WWII) and institutional (the House UnAmerican Activities Committee, and the Production Code Administration) influences on the subgenres. An analysis of the low budget and series film noirs provides information on those cult classics. With over 200 entries on films, directors, and actors, the Encyclopedia of Film Noir is the most complete resource for film fans, students, and scholars.

Taiwan Tattoo

By: Brian M. Day

Jack is the kind of guy who drifts through life, never bothering to make an effort, until the day his brother-in-law fires him from a job he never wanted in the first place. When his local pizza-deliveryman suggests that he should get a job teaching English in Taiwan, Jack drifts into that occupation with the same languor that has characterized every other action in his life. But Taiwan has other plans for this Canadian slacker, who discovers that if he wants to survive in his new environment, effort will definitely need to be part of the package. Slowly his flat, lackluster existence begins to take on new dimensions as Jack learns to function in a puzzling and challenging new world. A comic satire laced with black humor, Taiwan Tattoo is a scathing look at young Westerners who come to “teach” in Asia. Mixing an inarticulate form of existential angst with the uncaring ignorance of Generation X in this coming-of-age novel, Brian Day has created an anti-hero who, against his will, slowly becomes aware of the rest of the world as he flounders far away from any of his customary safety nets. With deceptive simplicity and a protagonist who can barely find his way into a classroom—let alone teach in one, Taiwan Tattoo skillfully lampoons the overseas TOEFL industry in a way that is as hilarious as it is devastating.

The Films of Walter Hill

The Films of Walter Hill

Another Time, Another Place

By: Brian Brems

In The Films of Walter Hill: Another Time, Another Place, Brian Brems explores how, as action emerged as a full-fledged genre of cinema, Walter Hill established his position in the genre, first as a screenwriter and then as a director. Hill, Brems argues, helped merge the thematic and stylistic concerns of the Western and film noir into a new action cinema, establishing a reputation for mythic, highly-stylized storytelling driven by a relentless pace. Through analyses of Hill’s filmography, this book demonstrates his consistent use of the architecture of classical storytelling to help codify the language of the action movie. These observations are supported by extensive conversations with Walter Hill and several of his on-screen collaborators, including Lance Henriksen, Sigourney Weaver, David Patrick Kelly, James Renmar, and William Sadler. Ultimately, Brems positions Hill as a key American film artist, whose work has inspired countless imitations.
