Boat Works

If I could do anything right now, what would it be? It was that simple question that began an adventure of a lifetime, leading Merton to quit his job, leave everything he'd ever worked for, and pursue his lifelong dream of sailing the South Pacific. But just when he thought he was done working, reality reared its ugly head. Merton soon learned that while dreaming was one thing, bringing the dream to life was quite another. He had no boat, no experience as a sailor, and no clue how to navigate the challenges ahead. What he did have was the idealistic optimism that comes with inexperience; after all, how hard could it really be? In his revealing and humorous novel, Boat Works, author Tony Disanto takes a satirical look at the circumstances that can overcome even our best efforts in life. Unwittingly, Merton believed he could escape the absurdities of modern society by sailing into the sunset, only to find that life's difficulties are hard to escape. Boat Works takes readers on a hilarious voyage filled with big dreams, frequent disappointments, and a determination unlike any other. Merton is intent on conquering the oceans, but along the way, he discovers that the greatest satisfaction and happiness in life may come hidden within our greatest losses. Author Tony Disanto has been venturing out to sea since childhood. He has sailed across the Atlantic Ocean alone, east-bound and west-bound. He has also sailed the Caribbean Islands, from Barbados to Belize. Whenever he can get away from work as an engineer, he prefers to drop anchor in the calm and tranquil waters of the Bahamas, spending the winter months reading, writing, and exploring the more remote out-islands.

Italian Sword and Sandal Films, 1908-1990

By: Roy Kinnard,Tony Crnkovich

Produced in Italy from the turn of the 20th century, "sword and sandal" or peplum films were well received in the silent era and attained great popularity in the 1960s following the release of Hercules (1959), starring Mr. Universe Steve Reeves. A global craze for Bronze Age fantasy-adventures ensued and the heroic exploits of Hercules, Maciste, Samson and Goliath were soon a mainstay of American drive-ins and second-run theaters (though mainly disparaged by critics). By 1965, the genre was eclipsed by the spaghetti western, yet the 1960s peplum canon continues to inspire Hollywood epics. This filmography provides credits, cast and comments for dozens of films from 1908 through 1990.

The Anglo-Florentines

The British in Tuscany, 1814-1860

By: Diana Webb,Tony Webb

This book looks at the variety of Britons who became residents of Florence between the end of the Napoleonic wars and the absorption of Tuscany into the kingdom of Italy. Many of them were leisured, and some aristocratic; a few were writers or artists; the British clergy and physicians who ministered to them were gentlemen. Many others were shopkeepers, merchants and even engineers. Some achieved a more profound knowledge of the country (and its language) than others, but all were affected to some degree by the momentous events which led to Italian unification.
