Synopsis Baseball's Funnymen by : Lew Freedman
From Nick Altrock to Casey Stengel, Dizzy Dean to Satchel Paige, Bill Veeck to Bob Uecker, baseball has always admired the clever. This book tells the stories of some of the players, coaches, managers and broadcasters who had the most fun in the Major Leagues and made fans laugh out loud (or shake their heads in disbelief). The author recounts tales both famous and little known that capture the character of unusual and offbeat players, unique and engaging personalities and the succession of eccentrics who were officially dubbed "Clown Prince of Baseball."

Synopsis While They Were Dying by : Samuel Peter Shaw
Samuel Peter Shaws drama of love and betrayal is peopled by the Sink Set, a group of fickle, moneyed sophisticates living in London's leafy southern suburbs. For all but one of them, the Iraq War is sobering but coincidental, a backdrop against which they shrug and carry on. Colly Wolfson, a member of the Set, is a forty-something prize-winning architect and builder; wealthy, debonair, popular. But personal tragedy strikes him twice. Overcome by grief and guilt, he tries to make amends, but keeps his efforts secret. For a time, he believes he might achieve a new beginning. But in 2003 on the anniversary of his own tragedies he is horrified by the numbing, hi-tech bombing of Baghdad. It leaves him isolated among his uncaring friends and it unhinges him. Increasingly unhappy and with his marriage crumbling, he drifts into two affairs and the downward spiral begins. While They Were Dying is the story of a man falling apart and of the efforts of his family and friends to save him; a story of love and devotion, betrayal and deception. And all the while, among the laughter and the tears, is Colly's ever-present obsession with the monster in the corner the Iraq War of Bush and Blair.

Synopsis The Adventures of Ozzie Nelson by : John R. Holmes
When Ozzie Nelson died in 1975, he was no longer a household name. For a guy who had created the longest-running TV sitcom in history, invented the rock video, and fronted one of the most successful big bands of the 1930s, it's baffling that Nelson has faded so far from American media memory. Larger than life offscreen--an attorney, college football star, cartoonist, songwriter, major band leader--Ozzie created a smaller-than-life TV persona, the bumbling average Dad who became known to the rock generation (which included his teen idol son Rick Nelson) as the essence of blandness. But America also saw Ozzie as their iconic Dad: not a "father knows best," since his pontifications usually proved flawed by the end of each episode, but the father who tried his best. This book is the only full-length biography of Ozzie Nelson since he published his memoirs in 1973. It treats the big band and early TV icon with affection and hints that American pop culture may owe more to Ozzie than is generally acknowledged.

Synopsis Ozzie by : Ozzie Nelson
Oswald Nelson began his spectacular career as a musician at age 14 when he and a friend were paid $5 to play for the local Woman's Club dance in his native Ridgefield Park, N.J. Before Ozzie knew it, his "band" was in such demand that people were willing to pay them an incredible $10 per night. Ozzie divided his free time at Rutgers University between football and music. Music won out and within five years of graduation, he was the leader of one of the big bands of the 1930s and an established radio personality. During this period, he met Harriet Hilliard, who became his partner and, of course, his wife. Together, they won millions of radio fans when they joined Red Skelton on the highly popular Raleigh Cigarette Hour. In 1944, "The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet" was first broadcast. It went on to run for 22 years, first on radio and then television. Ozzie's career did not end there--he returned to the stage, and this fall [1973] will be back on television with a new series, Ozzie's Girls. More than Ozzie's success story or family album this is a nostalgic evocation of one of the most glamorous eras of show business. Enriched by a wealth of amusing anecdotes, it presents a genuinely nice man who writes with warmth and unaffected charm. Readers will like the man and enjoy his entertaining story.

Synopsis Mad Dog Steel Time by : Dennis Perry
Filer ‘Mad Dog’ Wilson, journeyman lineman, has settled down with a family and a nine to five job doing distribution work for P. G. & E. in Portland, Oregon. His involvement with ex cons, a philandering boss, copper thieves, and high voltage transmission work is behind him. (Read The Copper Thieves) Then he is told of the sudden unexpected death of his father; and soon after the funeral, he is given notice of a seasonal layoff by P. G. and E. His wife Abbey tells him he should take some time off, but Filer would sooner work through the loss of his father. Ozzie Harper, a long time friend, gives Filer the chance to return to the excitement of transmission work doing electrical construction and wire work on steel towers, in Deer Lodge, Montana. It isn’t long after arriving in Deer Lodge that Filer is once again caught up in adventures with bikers, kidnappers, movie stars and strippers; and all of this after his dangerous day job as a journeyman lineman.
