Courting Disaster: An Angie Amalfi Mystery $7.99 From The Publisher:Normally dilettante chef and freelance food writer Angie Amalfi would rather be deep-fried than let her control-freak mother plan the party celebrating Angie’s engagement to San Francisco homicide detective Paavo Smith. But there’s already too much on the bride-to-be’s plate … and much of it is murderous. What with her unhealthy interest in friendly neighbor Stan’s dangerous infatuation with a mysterious, very pregnant kitchen helper at a nearby Greek eatery — and in the related sudden death by very unnatural causes of a celebrated do-gooder — incurable snoop Angie may be biting off a lot more souvlaki than she can safely swallow. Stir in a vengeful stalker, some strange happenings on a fishing boat, and a second heaping helping of homicide, and it looks like poor Paavo may end up celebrating solo, due to the untimely d.o.a. of his hapless fiancee! About The Author:Joanne Pence is the author of the Angie Amalfi Mystery series. Angie wants two things in life — a good job and San Francisco Homicide Inspector Paavo Smith, but culinary crime keeps getting in the way. Joanne grew up amidst the cultural diversity and culinary excellence of San Francisco, and that setting provides a rich flavor to her books. |

Excerpt: Aiden MacCarthy Aiden MacCarthy , GM (1914-1992) was an Irish doctor of the Royal Air Force who showed great courage, resourcefulness and humanity during his capture by the Japanese during the Second World War . Early life MacCarthy was born in 1914 in the town of Castletownbere , County Cork , Ireland . His parents owned land and businesses in the area. He attended Clongowes Wood School and University College Cork . Military career He served in the RAF as a medical officer and reached the rank of Air Commodore . In 1941 he was awarded the George Medal for rescuing the crew of a crashed and burning aircraft. He was evacuated from Dunkirk where he attended wounded Allied soldiers while under fire from German aircraft. He was captured by the Japanese in Sumatra . The prison ship transporting Allied prisoners to Japan was sunk by US bombers. MacCarthy had to do the best he could for his patients whilst splashing around in the South China Sea. A Japanese fishing boat pulled him out of the ocean and transported him to Japan. There, he cared for Allied prisoners of war who were forced to work in horrific conditions. To the Japanese ear ‘MacCarthy’ and ‘MacArthur ‘ were indistinguishable. The Japanese assumed that MacCarthy must be a close blood relative of the American commander. Therefore, whenever MacCarthy answered his name, he was struck on the forehead. This may have contributed to his developing a brain clot in later life. He was in charge of a working party in Nagasaki when the atomic bomb was dropped on that city on August 9, 1945. The |

Slices From A Long Loaf $18.56 Purchase of this book includes free trial access to www.million-books.com where you can read more than a million books for free.This is an OCR edition with typos.Excerpt from book:SLICE III. The next morning we went down and took another look at the river. The gauge showed a half inch less water than the day before. We meditated, deliberated and consulted. Our boat did not get a lighter draught thereby, nor did the river get any deeper. Finally the crew had a bright idea. Said he, “I’ll tell you what we can do; just watch me once.” With that he jumped into the boat. “See/’ said he, “she’ll float with me and part of the baggage; now what’s the matter with my floating down in the boat with part of the stuff, while the rest of you walk along until the river gets deeper, then you can get in and ride, one after the other.” These few words created quite an excitement in our little party. The navigator and the cook used very harsh language toward the crew. My Partner’s remarks were stronger and heavier; they were in German. I am sorry that I cannot translate them. German remarks, especially if they contain nice longwords, must be heard or even seen in the original to be appreciated. I have always had an especial liking for the long words found in the German language. There is a certain solidity about them which is entirely lacking in our short, matter-of-fact English. Then again, these long German words are handy things to have about the house or playground. If you want to drive a nail or play ball you can use such a word as a hammer or bat. If necessary, you can use one of them as a clothes pole, fishing line or hitching post. Another nice thing about them is that any man with but a superficial knowledge of German can build them up for himself. You start out with a noun and tack an adjective to it, then you add another noun and a few “werde gehabt habens,” then you have your foundation and can start building in earnest. Like this, for instance, sta. |

The Duke of Havana: Baseball, Cuba, and the Search for the American Dream $19 In 1998, a mysterious right-handed pitcher emerged from the ashes of the Cold War and helped lead the New York Yankees to a World Championship. His origins and even his age were uncertain. His name was Orlando El Duque Hernandez. He was a fallen hero of Fidel Castro’s socialist revolution. The chronicle of El Duque’s triumph is at once a window into the slow death of Cuban socialism and one of the most remarkable sports stories of all time. Once hailed as a paragon of Castro’s revolution, the finest pitcher in modern Cuban history was banned from baseball for life for allegedly plotting to defect. Instead of accepting his punishment, he fearlessly fought back, defying the Communist party authorities, vowing to pitch again, and ultimately fleeing his country in the bowels of a thirty-foot fishing boat. Here, for the first time and in astonishing detail, the secrets behind El Duque’s persecution and escape are revealed. Moving from the crumbling streets of post Cold War Havana to the polarized world of exile Miami, from the deadly Florida Straits to the hallowed grounds of Yankee Stadium, it is a story of cloak-and-dagger adventure, audacious secret plots, the pull of big money, and the historic collision of ideologies. Present throughout are the larger-than-life characters who converged at this bizarre intersection of baseball and politics: El Duque himself, Fidel Castro, the Miami sports agent Joe Cubas, the late John Cardinal O’Connor along with scouts, smugglers, and the Cuban ballplayers who gave up their lives as tools of socialism to test the free market and chase their major-league dreams. Reported in the United States and Cuba by two award-winning journalists whobecame part of the story they were covering, The Duke of Havana is a riveting saga of sports, politics, liberation, and greed. From the Hardcover edition. |
