We have seen at this time every day what is happening around us and for our neighbors and what the danger is there for them and for us. The danger is the terror missions, militants, insurgents, other small anti-militia groups, and the major weather threats. All these projections make the danger. It is today and will continue these hazardous situations for tomorrow and for the next millennia. However, the danger the book is discussing is about the U.S., including the U.S. allies and for the global world. The poetry is all about the present dangers that have already been created by the weather, wars, and the anti-human attackers, and the future danger of the weather. Danger, danger, danger, more danger in the future if we have no solutions at all for stopping the crucial aggression, we will all be caught by potential strangers.

Tales of scandals, social class, and a city block where big names in horse racing—among other prominent people—lived: “Well researched . . . a fascinating read.” —Brooklyn Daily Eagle In an era when horse racing reigned supreme and Brooklyn was at its very center, a remarkable collection of turf legends came to reside along one small stretch of northern Eighth Avenue in the exclusive neighborhood of Park Slope. Here, along Sportsmen’s Row, the lives of the sportsmen and those of their neighbors—men of prominence and distinction in theater, law, industry, and politics—came together in surprising and unexpected ways. Though the public saw a block dominated by the celebrities of the age, behind the closed doors of Sportsmen’s Row a more subtle narrative played itself out: of infidelity, gambling, excess and, regardless of fame, a world strictly ordered and preordained by social class. This history offers a compelling portrait of this colorful corner of Gilded Age Brooklyn. Includes photos

The American Story of the Bookstores on Fourth Avenue from the 1890s to the 1960s New York City has eight million stories, and this one unfolds just south of Fourteenth Street in Manhattan, on the seven blocks of Fourth Avenue bracketed by Union Square and Astor Place. There, for nearly eight decades from the 1890s to the 1960s, thrived the New York Booksellers’ Row, or Book Row. This richly anecdotal memoir features historical photographs and the rags-to-riches tale of the Strand, which began its life as a book stall on Eighth Street and today houses 2.5 million volumes (or sixteen miles of books) in twelve miles of space. It’s a story cast with characters as legendary and colorful as the horse-betting, poker-playing, go-getter of a book dealer George D. Smith; the irascible Russian-born book hunter Peter Stammer; the visionary Theodore C. Schulte; Lou Cohen, founder of the still-surviving Argosy Book Store; and gentleman bookseller George Rubinowitz and his formidably shrewd wife, Jenny. Book Row remembers places that all lovers of books should never forget, like Biblo & Tamen, the shop that defied book-banning laws; the Green Book Shop, favored by John Dickson Carr; Ellenor Lowenstein’s world-renowned gastronomical Corner Book Shop (which was not on a corner); and the Abbey Bookshop, the last of the Fourth Avenue bookstores to close its doors. Rising rents, street crime, urban redevelopment, and television are many of the reasons for the demise of Book Row, but in this volume, based on interviews with dozens of the people who bought, sold, collected, and breathed in its rare, bibliodiferous air, it lives again.
