Larry Voorhees introduces us to Ray Toric, who lives in the quiet town of Harley, Nebraska. Ray is a newly-recovering alcoholic who can't seem to hold a job, or stay out of the bottle. What does it take for a man who is prone to hitting the self-destruct switch to realize and accept his destiny and legacy? Especially if he really doesn't want to.Perhaps a visit from an archangel will have an awakening effect? The Odgaard. Much more than a piece of jewelry.

A Lawyer in Pinstripes

A Fantasy Journey

By: Larry M. Roth

A Lawyer in Pinstripes By: Larry M. Roth When Larry M. Roth receives a trip to New York Yankees Fantasy Camp for his birthday, a humorous and touching journey begins for the 59½-year-old lawyer as he tries to get back into baseball shape after a 40-year layoff. Readers will find themselves laughing out loud when following along with the author’s attempts to sharpen his baseball skills with the young bartender at his favorite bar, his trip to Shopping Mall Hell to stock up on his necessary sports equipment, and his late-night trek to the drug store to buy all the pain medication he believes he’ll need at fantasy camp. This autobiographical account also takes a nostalgic turn as the author looks back at his time in Little League and sees how it provided an important escape from difficult family issues. By the end, A Lawyer in Pinstripes: A Fantasy Journey will leave readers thinking one thing: be careful what you wish for.

Where are Poor People to Live?: Transforming Public Housing Communities

Transforming Public Housing Communities

By: Larry Bennett,Janet L. Smith,Patricia A Wright

This groundbreaking book shows how major shifts in federal policy are spurring local public housing authorities to demolish their high-rise, low-income developments, and replace them with affordable low-rise, mixed income communities. It focuses on Chicago, and that city's affordable housing crisis, but it provides analytical frameworks that can be applied to developments in every American city. "Where Are Poor People to Live?" provides valuable new empirical information on public housing, framed by a critical perspective that shows how shifts in national policy have devolved the U.S. welfare state to local government, while promoting market-based action as the preferred mode of public policy execution. The editors and chapter authors share a concern that proponents of public housing restructuring give little attention to the social, political, and economic risks involved in the current campaign to remake public housing. At the same time, the book examines the public housing redevelopment process in Chicago, with an eye to identifying opportunities for redeveloping projects and building new communities across America that will be truly hospitable to those most in need of assisted housing. While the focus is on affordable housing, the issues addressed here cut across the broad policy areas of housing and community development, and will impact the entire field of urban politics and planning.

New acquiring editor Darrell Schweitzer makes his first selection for BCW with Tom Purdom’s “Madame Pompadour’s Blade,” which combines French history and magic.

A Story of Love, Loss, and Learning to Live (And Love!) Again

By: Gloria D. Larry

From the moment of their first dance, Charles and Gloria knew their relationship was special.

In a powerful and unflinching detail, Gloria Larry takes you into the most sacred parts of her life. You will remember what it feels like to go on your first date and smile. Your heart will leap when she finally says, “I do.” And your heart will break as she and Charles take on the biggest fight of their lives.

You will be deeply touched by the tenderness of two people who shared a soul tie, and you will learn to hold on and trust in God even when he doesn’t provide the outcome that you have so earnestly prayed for. Go gently with Gloria as she takes you on the ride of her life and then learn how you, too, can begin to rebuild your life after losing a loved one.

Red Phoenix Burning

By: Larry Bond,Chris Carlson

North Korea has one of the world’s largest standing armies, capable of unleashing a massive arsenal of chemical and nuclear weapons. With an unstable government, under absolute dictator Kim Jong-un, North Korea more closely resembles an organized crime ring than a real nation-state. Millions live on the edge of starvation while Pyongyang’s ruthless generals, crooked bureaucrats, and vicious secret police wage a covert war against each other to expand their rival fiefdoms. RED PHOENIX BURNING explores the implosion of this corrupt regime – a coup that triggers a bloody civil war among the North’s brutal factions. The world is dragged into a violent and rapidly widening confrontation amid North Korea’s shattered ruins, bringing it to the edge of an all-out war that could engulf the entire civilized world. Fans of the original RED PHOENIX will be delighted to see favorite characters like Colonel Kevin Little, Brigadier General Tony Christopher, and Colonel Rhee Han-Gil returning to battle, older and wiser, alongside a new cast of heroes and villains. RED PHOENIX BURNING will also offer readers a deeper look behind today’s headlines of turmoil and uncertainty—a look made all the more profound by the in-depth knowledge of war, military technology, and geopolitics brought to bear by Larry Bond and his co-author Chris Carlson. "Displays a knowledge of modern weaponry and war that can only be described as as state-of-the art." —Stephen Coonts "Fast, furious, and powerfully realistic. A stunning scenario of modern war." —W.E.B Griffin "Red Phoenix is a shocking new chapter of a tragic disaster that might very well stun the world by becoming reality. Larry Bond has proven himself a master of military adventure." —Clive Cussler

The Spiritual Realm and Other Stories

By: Larry Sells

A couple of werewolves, Susan, and Alf, each wearing an "eat a human" T-shirt walked in Ghostville Mall. They stopped in front of the movie theater and looked at the list. The two looked at each other and walked away. Susan eyed a human skeleton through the arcade's windows. She elbowed Alf and he looked at her. When Susan had his attention she whispered, "Let's eat him when he comes out." Her eyes pointed out the human skeleton. Following Susan's eyes, Alf saw the human skeleton and started drooling. "He looks good enough to eat." Alf and Susan sat on the wooden bench opposite the entrance, so they could see the human skeleton through the window. They sat there grooming each other's heads like a pair of chimpanzees. Both ate the fleas taken from the other's head.

Rebels, Race, And The American Athlete

By: Larry Platt

In this erudite and captivating book, author Larry Platt takes us on his own unique tour through American sports. Culled from a decade of writing about our games and the people who play them, Platt offers exclusive profiles of the athletes we love--and love to hate ... In these and other profiles, Platt shows that sport, more than any other nationwide pastime, is the way that we come to understand--and alter--race relations, gender, and, most profoundly, how we communicate with each other in ways often ignored by social commentators"--Inside front jacket cover

Rebuilt from Broken Glass

A German Jewish Life Remade in America

By: Fred Behrend,Larry Hanover

Symbolized by a three-hundred-year-old Seder plate, the religious life of Fred Behrend's family had centered largely around Passover and the tale of the Jewish people's exodus from tyranny. When the Nazis came to power, the wide-eyed boy and his family found themselves living a twentieth-century version of that exodus, escaping oppression and persecution in Germany for Cuba and ultimately a life of freedom and happiness in the United States. Behrend's childhood came to a crashing end with Kristallnacht (the Night of Broken Glass) and his father's harrowing internment at the Sachsenhausen concentration camp. But he would not be defined by these harrowing circumstances. Behrend would go on to experience brushes with history involving the defeated Germans. By the age of twenty, he had run a POW camp full of Nazis, been an instructor in a program aimed at denazifying specially selected prisoners, and been assigned by the U.S. Army to watch over Wernher von Braun, the designer of the V-2 rocket that terrorized Europe and later chief architect of the Saturn V rocket that sent Americans to the moon. Behrend went from a sheltered life of wealth in a long-gone, old-world Germany, dwelling in the gilded compound once belonging to the manufacturer of the zeppelin airships, to a poor Jewish immigrant in New York City learning English from Humphrey Bogart films. Upon returning from service in the U.S. Army, he rose out of poverty, built a successful business in Manhattan, and returned to visit Germany a dozen times, giving him unique perspective into Germany's attempts to surmount its Nazi past.
