Nominative Gestures

Poems from a Month Abroad

By: Larry Corse

An elegant, eloquent journey abroad through verse and photo that makes you want to get your passport out immediately, dig up some cheap plane tickets online, and head for the airport. This is one creative endeavor that proves three heads are better than one." --Brandon Judell, New York Theatre Wire "This is no mere Jamesian Baedeker in verse form where clumsy and insensitive American sensibility collides with European culture and misses all the grace notes. Nor is it a cold Michelin guide book lacking heart and soul. These poems, filled with the traditional and non-traditional landmarks and landscapes of Paris and Italy, transform classical cold marble, ancient ruins, and rustic villas into resonant and shimmering snapshots of places and people infused with the yearnings, wit, and joys of the two poets. "Whether it is Brad's evocation of a past love haunting his footsteps as he revisits old landmarks or Larry's sense of serenity and balance against the torque of age, this poetic tour guides the reader through the hearts of these two poets and the souls of the countries they visit. "The personal and the historical merge in each image and moment of these clever, touching, sensual, and candid poems. What I am especially impressed by is the narrative ease of both poets, the momentum of their compact, eminently readable verse, carrying us forward into the present while retaining the sense of the historical past. Both poets create a correspondence between old world myth and modern attitude. The classical antiquity, the romantic costumes, the rich, mysterious landscapes are rendered transparent and we see and feel what the poets experience. The ancient trappings take on very human faces, sometimes ironic and erotic, sometimes poignant, always perceptive and honest. "What started out as a private trip of a lifetime for three people has been poetically memorialized into a public adventure of the spirit and senses." --Robert Karmon, playwright "Corse and Fairchild allow us to take that trip we have all dreamed of going on--the travel brochure photo into which we have each put ourselves. This poetic postcard is not just about the pretty pictures of the towers and cathedrals in the souvenir shops, but the internal photo that was snapped at the same time." --Duncan E. Teague, Senior member of ADODI Muse: A Gay Negro Ensemble. Join in this poetic exploration of life, love, and friendship that runs the gamut from melancholic to farcical--and everything in between!

LOVE SONNETS: On the Threshold of Life, Death and Rebirth

By: Larry Lynn

Sonnets are fourteen lines with iambic pentameter rhythm. Outside of that, anything goes. Some self-imposed limitations could prevail, but I choose to let the reader listen to the voice rather than just to hear the sound, feel the rhythm rather than count the beat, and see the message rather than analyze the form. So, enjoy the picture and not the frame -- after all, a poem by any other name . . .

The Mystery of John Colter

The Man Who Discovered Yellowstone

By: Ronald M. Anglin,Larry E. Morris

From the first account of “Colter’s Run,” published in 1810, fascination with John Colter, one of America’s most famous and yet least known frontiersmen and discoverer of Yellowstone Park, has never waned. Unlike other legends of the era like Daniel Boone, Davy Crockett, and Kit Carson, Colter has remained elusive because he left not a single letter, diary, or reminiscence. Gathering the available evidence and guiding readers through a labyrinth of hearsay, rumor, and myth, two Colter experts for the first time tell the whole story of Colter and his legend.

Gloomy Terrors and Hidden Fires

The Mystery of John Colter and Yellowstone

By: Ronald M. Anglin,Larry E. Morris

From 1810, when a newspaper published the first account of “Colter’s Run,” to 2012, when one hundred and fourscore participants in Montana’s annual John Colter Run charged up and down rugged trails—even across the waist-deep Gallatin River—interest in Colter, the alleged discoverer of Yellowstone Park, has never waned. Drawing on this endless fascination with an individual often called the first American mountain man, this book offers an innovative, comprehensive study of a unique figure in American history. Despite his prominent role in the Lewis and Clark Expedition and the early exploration of the West, Colter is distinctly different from Daniel Boone, Davy Crockett, Kit Carson, and the other legends of the era because they all left documents behind that allow access to the men themselves. Colter, by contrast, left nothing, not a single letter, diary, or reminiscence, so that second-, third-, or fourth-hand accounts of his adventures are all we have. Guiding readers through this labyrinth of hearsay, rumor, and myth, this is the first book to tell the whole story of Colter and his legend, examining everything that is known—or supposedly known—about Colter and showing how historians and history buffs alike have tried in vain to get back to Colter the man, know what he said and feel what he felt, but have ended up never seeing him clearly, finding instead an enigma they cannot unravel.

365 Sports Cars You Must Drive

Fast, Faster, Fastest - Revised and Updated

By: John Lamm,Steve Sutcliffe,Larry Edsall,James Mann,Kris Palmer

365 Sports Cars You Must Drive puts you in the driver's seat of a century's worth of sports car legends (and a few rather less legendary), each presented with a fun and informative profile and fact-and-spec box. It's the ultimate gearhead's bucket list and poses the challenge: How many have you driven? Whoever coined the phrase "getting there is half the fun" must have owned a sports car. And the wag who suggested that "it's the journey not the destination"? Probably driving a Lotus or MG at the time. From towering icons like Ferrari, Lamborghini, Porsche, and Corvette to everyman sportsters from Triumph, MG, Sunbeam, and Miata to oddballs like Crosley, Sabra, and DB, sports cars inspire passion and strong opinions as few other vehicles on the road can. In one beautiful book, long-time Road & Truck magazine chief photographer John Lamm, along with other top motoring contributors, gives the reader illustrated profiles of every sports car you've ever dreamed of driving! Now, imagine if you could drive a different sports car—any sports car—every single day for a year. Which would you choose?

A Beanie and a Cup of Tea

A Father’s Poems of Loss and Love

By: Larry A. Dunn

The soul-searching poems in Larry Dunn's debut collection, A Beanie and A Cup of Tea, invite readers into a deeply personal journey that explores the mystery of life and death, the beauty of words as gift, and the power of sustaining love not fully known before the loss of his son, Seth. Both introspective and transparent, Dunn writes with an unflinching style about the realities of unimaginable loss, his willingness to embrace the unknowable, and his renewed commitment to cherish life and those he loves. In an honest portrayal of what it means to sit with the pain of loss, Dunn searches for ways to stay connected to his son within the "thin spaces" of these poems, "where mystery is / cloaked in beauty / and the line between / heaven and earth / collapses into love." A Beanie and A Cup of Tea invites the reader into these spaces, extending a knowing embrace and giving voice to those whose lives are shaped by grief.

Seraffyn's Mediterranean Adventure

By: Lin and Larry Pardey

Join Lin and Larry onboard their cruising cutter Seraffyn as they explore the history-laden waters of the Mediterranean Sea. For three years they meandered under sail, eastward from the rocky monolith of Gibraltar to the imposing stone ramparts of Malta. They share stories here of the kaleidoscope of people who filled their days along the way: from the British military officers who joined them for races to the officials who turned them into smugglers (not of drugs but of a boat-full of yeast, flower, vegetables and propane - and eventually twenty dollars worth of noodles!) Lin's warmhearted storytelling will draw you into their cruising life and revewal the secrets that kept this well-known couple wandering the watery reaches of the world for more than forty years. Lin and Larry paid for their apparent freedom by working along the way - delivering and repairing yachts, and writing for magazines around the world. Their motto - Go Small, Go Simple, Go Now - has inspired thousands of potential voyagers to stop dreaming and set out to sea. "The Pardeys weave a tale of people and anecdotes that makes for marvelous armchair cruising. If you've read earlier works, you won't be disappointed. If you"re new to the spell of the Pardeys, this will surely hook you." -- Yachting
