Story
From award-winning journalist and children’s book author Mary Cronk Farrell comes the inspiring and fascinating story of the woman who gave a human face to the Vietnam War. Close-Up on War tells the story of French-born Catherine Leroy, one of the war’s few woman photographers, who documented some of the fiercest fighting in the 20-year conflict. Although she had no formal photographic training and had never before traveled more than a few hundred miles from Paris, Leroy left home at age 21 to travel to Vietnam and document the faces of war.

Story
High school sucks for a lot of people. High school extra sucks when you believe, deep in your soul, that every kid in the school is out to get you. I wasn't popular before I got locked up in Straight Inc., the notorious "tough love" program for troubled teens. So it's not like I was walking around thinking everyone liked me. But when you're psychologically beaten for 16 months, you start to absorb the lessons. The lessons in Straight were: You are evil. Your peers are evil. Everything is evil except Straight, Inc. Before long, you're a true believer.

Story
Storie curiose, fuori del comune (extra vaganti, appunto), divertenti, ma tutte rigorosamente vere, quelle raccontate in questo libretto. La prima storia è ambientata nel XIV secolo e vede protagonista una potentissima consorteria di banchieri fiorentini, i Bardi. La seconda ricostruisce un singolare brutto scherzo giocato dagli Europei ai Turchi nel secolo XVII. Nell'ultima sono commentati due famosi trattati francesi del XVII e XVIII secolo dedicati al commercio e alle manifatture del tempo, in cui abbondano giudizi, acuti e gustosi, su genti e popoli.

Story
As a semi-famous internet creator, Josh Sundquist knows what it's like to chase fame, but he also knows that more fame usually means more stress. So he set out on a pseudo-scientific investigation to find out if there is any way for fame and happiness to overlap. He attempts to define the word fame—hint: It's harder than you'd think. He turns back time to identify the first facially recognizable celebrity, Brutus. He digs into the numbers to debunk urban legends associated with stardom. He talks to other semi-famous people and asks them: Is this fame thing making you happy?

Travel back to the early days of Hollywood to meet twelve women who made it all happen. Twelve diverse actors, directors, writers, editors, designers, and producers who fought against sexism, racism, and prejudice to have their voices heard. And who changed the industry forever. Their influence can still be seen and felt today. Susan Goldman Rubin, who often writes about the arts and who lives near Hollywood, follows the paths these twelve took. Paths that included not only social, economic, and personal struggles but also major triumphs. And whose films are everlasting.

In The Things He Could Have Been, W. Nikola-Lisa pulls back the curtain on Babe Ruth’s off-the-field shenanigans, offering the listener a humorous, yet highly informative, portrayal of the Yankee slugger. Ruth was multi-talented and, it's not really hard to imagine, could have been many things - a professional golfer, a heavyweight boxer, a movie star, a football player, just to name a few of his interests.

Das beeindruckende Leben von Robert M’Cheyne hat viele junge Christen zum Nachahmen motiviert. Doch wer war er, und warum ist er in seinem kurzen Leben von 29 Jahren zum Glaubensvorbild geworden? Während seines Theologie-Studiums wurde er durch Gottes Gnade errettet und von dem großen Wunsch erfüllt, den Menschen die rettende Botschaft von Jesus Christus zu predigen. Aber man muss nicht weit weg gehen, um ein Missionar zu sein und etwas zu bewirken. Das war eine der ersten Lektionen, die Robert in seinem Leben als Christ lernte.

As a black child growing up in 1920s Colorado, Frank Macon was often told that he would never amount to anything. His severe dyslexia didn’t help, nor did his tendency for mischief. But in spite of all that, Frank rose to heights beyond anyone’s imagining. Ever since childhood—when he jumped off a roof wearing homemade wings—he wanted to be a pilot. In this inspiring memoir, Frank tells his story of achieving that dream.
