Book Description
On the morning of October 25, 1957, a group of men enter the barbershop of the Park Sheraton Hotel on 55th Street and Seventh Avenue and approach the figure in the brown suit sitting in Chair 4. A minute later, Albert Anastasia lies on the floor in a pool of blood. The dramatic assassination of the head of Murder, Incorporated captures the imagination of the press, as pictures of the corpse adorn front pages nationwide. But for Jack Pagano, a seventeen year-old high school football hero with a penchant for Shakespeare's history plays, the episode has special relevance. Because a little over a week before, completely out of the blue, Anastasia came into his life to announce that Jack was his son. It seems that Rip Collins, Jack's quasi-guardian, has been training Jack for more than just the college football league. Shortly after the shooting, Jack is given a letter from his father that, in extraordinarily candid and detailed terms, lays out Anastasia's view of the world, and outlines his plans for his son. Under Rip's tutelage, as well as the watchful eye of his father's close associates Meyer Lansky and Frank Costello, now is the time for Jack to inherit his dark legacy. Based on real events, and peopled with dozens of historical characters, Family Legacy takes us on a fascinating and eye-opening journey that criss-crosses through the interconnected worlds of the Mafia, law enforcement, and the business and political classes of the late fifties and early sixties, to build to a shattering and revelatory climax in Dallas, Texas on the morning of November 22, 1963.

Book Description
Complementing Science-Fiction: The Early Years, which surveys science-fiction published in book form from its beginnings through 1930, the present volume covers all the science-fiction printed in the genre magazines--Amazing, Astounding, and Wonder, along with offshoots and minor magazines--from 1926 through 1936. This is the first time this historically important literary phenomenon, which stands behind the enormous modern development of science-fiction, has been studied thoroughly and accurately. The heart of the book is a series of descriptions of all 1,835 stories published during this period, plus bibliographic information. Supplementing this are many useful features: detailed histories of each of the magazines, an issue by issue roster of contents, a technical analysis of the art work, brief authors' biographies, poetry and letter indexes, a theme and motif index of approximately 30,0000 entries, and general indexes. Science-Fiction: The Gernsback Years is not only indispensable for reference librarians, collectors, readers, and scholars interested in science-fiction, it is also of importance to the study of popular culture during the Great Depression in the United States. Most of its data, which are largely based on rare and almost unobtainable sources, are not available elsewhere.

Book Description
Following the events of The Last Colony, John Scalzi tells the story of the fight to maintain the unity of the human race. The people of Earth now know that the human Colonial Union has kept them ignorant of the dangerous universe around them. For generations the CU had defended humanity against hostile aliens, deliberately keeping Earth an ignorant backwater and a source of military recruits. Now the CU's secrets are known to all. Other alien races have come on the scene and formed a new alliance—an alliance against the Colonial Union. And they've invited the people of Earth to join them. For a shaken and betrayed Earth, the choice isn't obvious or easy. Against such possibilities, managing the survival of the Colonial Union won't be easy, either. It will take diplomatic finesse, political cunning...and a brilliant "B Team," centered on the resourceful Lieutenant Harry Wilson, that can be deployed to deal with the unpredictable and unexpected things the universe throws at you when you're struggling to preserve the unity of the human race. Being published online from January to April 2013 as a three-month digital serial, The Human Division will appear as a full-length novel of the Old Man's War universe, plus—for the first time in print—the first tale of Lieutenant Harry Wilson, and a coda that wasn't part of the digital serialization.
