American Silent Horror, Science Fiction and Fantasy Feature Films, 1913-1929

By: John T. Soister,Henry Nicolella,Steve Joyce

During the Silent Era, when most films dealt with dramatic or comedic takes on the "boy meets girl, boy loses girl" theme, other motion pictures dared to tackle such topics as rejuvenation, revivication, mesmerism, the supernatural and the grotesque. A Daughter of the Gods (1916), The Phantom of the Opera (1925), The Magician (1926) and Seven Footprints to Satan (1929) were among the unusual and startling films containing story elements that went far beyond the realm of "highly unlikely." Using surviving documentation and their combined expertise, the authors catalog and discuss these departures from the norm in this encyclopedic guide to American horror, science fiction and fantasy in the years from 1913 through 1929.

Saving Lives Under Fire

By: John Combs

Mercy Warriors: Saving Lives Under Fire by John “Doc” Combs brings the war in Vietnam to life through the stories and experiences of the men who saved lives. These were the corpsmen and medics assigned to combat units, the mercy warriors, who struggled to keep men alive long enough to get back to a hospital unit. Afterward, they were the ones who worried if they had done the best they could. These and other worries continued long after their military service. Their powerful stories and observations will help current and future generations of mercy warriors save lives and help themselves cope with the consequences.
