Crime is Not the Problem: Lethal Violence in America by Franklin E. Zimring, ISBN 0195131053
In Crime is Not the Problem, Franklin Zimring and Gordon Hawkins revolutionize the way we think about crime and violence -- by forcing us to distinguish between crime and violence. The authors reveal that compared to other industrialized nations, in most categories of nonviolent crime, American crime rates are comparable -- even lower, in some cases. Only when it comes to lethal violence does the United States outpace other Western nations, with homicide rates many, many times greater. London and New York City have hearty the same number of robberies and burglaries each year, but robbers and burglars kill fifty-four victims in New York for every victim death in London.
Why are the risks so much greater that victims will be killed or maimed in the United States? And what can be done to bring the death rate from American violence down to tolerable levers? The authors show how the impact of television and movie violence on rates of homicide is wildly overrated, but emphasize the paramount...

We Were in the Big One: Experiences of the World War II Generation by Mark P. Parillo, ISBN 0842027971
To the generation that lived through it, World War II will always be the "Big One." Archie Bunker would proudly proclaim in the 1970s sit-com All in the Family, "I was in the Big One, Double-ya, Double-ya Two." In doing so, he intoned the creed of his generation. In the generations that have followed, there has been renewed interest in this period, evidenced by the popularity of movies like Saving Private Ryan and the television series Band of Brothers. World War II was truly the largest and greatest conflict in U.S. history. Americans spent more tax dollars, joined the armed forces in greater number, fought in more places, and waged war as part of a grander alliance than in any other war in the country's past. We Were in the Big One: Experiences of the World War II Generation is a collection of diary entries, letters, photographs, and other documents from the World War II era. Carefully selected by Mark P. Parillo from the Eisenhower Library's World War II Participants Collection and other...

Henry Bumstead and the World of Hollywood Art Direction by Andrew Horton, ISBN 0292705190
"Dear Bummy, You take the BS out of filmmaking!"--Clint Eastwood's comment on Henry Bumstead's receiving the Lifetime Achievement Award in 1998 from the Society of Motion Picture and Television Art Directors"Making a movie with Bummy was always a pleasure because it was like going to work with a good friend who also had a fine, artistic eye, who shared your vision, and who knew infinitely more about the practical nuts-and-bolts business of putting a story on camera than you did. . . . Everything he designed served the movie. He knew how to visually bring it to life."--Robert MulliganFrom a hotel in Marrakech in The Man Who Knew Too Much, to small-town Alabama in To Kill a Mockingbird, to Mission Control in Space Cowboys, creating a fictional, yet wholly believable world in which to film a movie has been the passion and life's work of Henry Bumstead, one of Hollywood's most celebrated production designers. In a career that has spanned nearly seventy years, Bumstead has worked on more than...

New York Dead by Stuart Woods, ISBN 1587881489
It Was Just Luck
Everyone is always telling Stone Barrington that he's too smart to be a cop, but it's pure luck that places him on the streets in the dead of night, just in time to witness the horrifying incident that turns his life inside out.
Suddenly he is on the front page of every New York newspaper, and his life is hopelessly entwined in the increasingly shocking life (and death) of Sasha Nijinsky, the country's hottest and most beautiful television anchorwoman.
No matter where he turns, the case is waiting for him, haunting his nights and turning his days into a living hell. Stone finds himself caught in a perilous web of unspeakable crimes, dangerous friends, and sexual depravity that has throughout it one common thread: Sasha.
"Suspenseful and surprising." Atlanta Journal-Constitution
