Fireman Down

The Story of African American Firefighter: Arthur Reese

By: Lee Shargel

It is the early 1980s when Artie and Angela Reese and their children move into their dream home in the Stoneybrook community in Charlotte, North Carolina, with the hope that the fears and prejudice that once overshadowed their African American family have melted away. Artie is now a lieutenant in the Charlotte Fire Department and Angela is an accountant for a banking firm. But as they settle in, no one has any idea of the everlasting effect that Artie and his family will soon have on the community and entire city. Unfortunately, Artie knows his new assignment at University Station is not going to be easy. The fire station houses a den of redneck racists who are determined to make his life miserable. Although he knows he will be the only black man there, he still needs to command respect and authority from his brothers in uniform. As he rescues victims in burning buildings that he is certain are racist, Artie transforms into a courageous hero who does not see color—only lives to be saved—a decision that seals his fate and determines his legacy. Fireman Down is the story of an African American firefighter who bravely wears his uniform during a time of racial unrest in Charlotte, North Carolina.

Progress in Malaria Research

By: Lee O. Koning

Malaria is an infectious disease that is widespread in tropical and subtropical regions. It infects between 300 and 500 million people every year and causes between one and three million deaths annually, mostly among young children in Sub-Saharan Africa. Malaria is not just a disease commonly associated with poverty, but is also a cause of poverty and a major hindrance to economic development. Malaria is one of the most common infectious diseases and an enormous public health problem. The disease is caused by protozoan parasites of the genus Plasmodium. The most serious forms of the disease are caused by Plasmodium falciparum and Plasmodium vivax, but other related species (Plasmodium ovale and Plasmodium malariae) can also infect humans. This group of human-pathogenic Plasmodium species are usually referred to as malaria parasites. This book presents leading-edge new research in this field.

Voice in the Mirror

Can the Final Apocalypse be Averted?

By: Lee Shargel

What might happen if the Hubble Space Telescope were to discover an alien civilization? Voice in the Mirror is a riveting account of how such an alien contact might occur, and although it is science fiction, it contains a wealth of factual information about the Hubble and NASA. Also thought-provoking is Lee's depiction of a cover-up in the original construction of the scope, perpetrated to hide the fraud and deception by some of America's largest companies. If the truth is out there, but hidden as many claim, then Voice in the Mirror may be the book that opens closed doors.

The Christmas Siren

The Christmas Siren

By: Lee Shargel

The Christmas Siren is the story of one man's sacrifice and how his unselfish act of heroism saved five lives and an entire community. The Christmas Siren: If You Believe in Miracles They Will Happen More Than Once, is the story of African-American fireman, Arthur Reese. After accepting a promotion to Lieutenant and a transfer to a fire station that was commanded by a devout racist, Arthur Reese was subjected to persecution, blatant racism and cruelty that would have sent most men running. Although he was treated horribly by his peers, Arthur Reese remained steadfast to the Brotherhood of firemen. He was a shining example of what it is to be a fireman, a good husband, father and mentor. He gave his life in the line of duty to save his persecutors. His unselfish act of bravery caused them to question the roots of racism. His bravery spawned a miracle and changed the lives of those men in the fire department and the entire community. On Christmas Eve, three weeks after his death, a siren sounded across the entire city. No one knows where it came from or who was responsible. It sounded for over half an hour. It was never heard again. On that night another miracle occurred. This story is based on true events.

Jerry Lee Lewis

His Own Story

By: Rick Bragg,Jerry Lee Lewis

Otherwise known as The Killer, Jerry Lee Lewis has lived an extraordinary life. He spent his childhood raising hell in Louisiana and Mississippi; gave rock-and-roll its devil's edge with hit records like 'Whole Lotta Shakin' Goin' On' and 'Great Balls of Fire'; performed with everyone from Elvis Presley to Keith Richards to Bruce Springsteen to Kid Rock; caused riots and boycotts with his incendiary performances; married his thirteen-year-old second cousin, the third of seven wives; ran a decade's-long marathon of drugs, drinking, and women; nearly met his maker, at least twice; and survived it all to be hailed as one of the greatest music icons. This is the fascinating authorised biography of this musical genius in his own words. For the very first time, Jerry Lee Lewis: His Own Story reveals the truth behind the Last Man Standing of the rock-and-roll era. From encounters with legends including Johnny Cash, Carl Perkins, John Lennon, Mick Jagger and more, to hair-raising first-person accounts of Jerry's lifelong rivalries with Elvis Presley and Chuck Berry for the title of king of rock-and-roll, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Rick Bragg traces the incredible story of a young man from the American South who used his piano to drive the world into a music revolution. Jerry Lee Lewis: His Own Story is the last great untold rock-and-roll story.
