Book excerpt: Readers will welcome this final volume, Part III, as it takes our heroes, the Dwyer brothers, from the peak of their success into the complicated world of East Coast racing in the 1890s. As Mike and Phil try to keep greedy gambling bosses from making unfair profits off Dwyer racetracks, they run foul of provincial laws and fickle public opinion. One brother even attempts to the escape the constraints of legal battles by attempting to invade England with his stable. With their high profile status, every Dwyer horse, every win, every jockey, and every trainer comes under scrutiny. No longer young plungers, but seasoned businessmen, the brothers are relentlessly wooed by admirers and coerced by crooks. Through it all, their bond never falters. Readers will delight to read of the next generation of young Dwyer men eloping across America with their sweethearts, not chastised for their impulsive natures but congratulated on their choice of pretty brides.

Book excerpt: This true story of the rise of two Irish American butchers from a childhood spent playing marbles and scrapping with other children in the streets of Brooklyn to owning the top racing stable in the USA is a remarkable one. History has been neither honest nor fair in the way it has portrayed their story. This book is an attempt to put the record straight and to bring this hidden history back into the mainstream where it belongs. While exploring the rapid changes in the racing world of the 1880s, the book also explores the changes in society at the time. The Dwyers rose to fame at an extraordinary time in American history.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first thing to know about this book is, it isn’t about me. It’s about the situations I lived through and what I had to do to adapt. And the thing with humans is, we do adapt. Just look at how the nation – the whole world – adapted to having to wash our hands, wear masks and get vaccinated during the global outbreak of Covid-19. If we want to achieve something as a human race, we will do it, and we will adapt. This book is a true story, involving my experience on a mission of goodwill in the tropics of the rainforest, a near death experience on a boat trip in Majorca, and returning to the slow pace of normal life back home.

Book excerpt: ÊThis is a book, from the era of the Peaky Blinders, Frank McCourt, author of Angela's Ashes, Êwould have loved.ÊThis book is important for a number of reasons.Ê It deals with a unique time in British history.Ê Norman's story is that of 20th Century Britain, from its beginning with Zeppelin raids over the UK during the First World War, through the Second World War; the birth of the NHS; IRA bombs and the Millennium.Ê It also has no agenda. And surprisingly little emotion.Ê Norman's tenacity and timing with his writing means he is perhaps one of the very first 'citizen journalists.Õ Technology now allows many people to record their life stories and recollections. But Norman was one of the first, perhaps unwittingly, to use the new technology of the time, the PC, to tell his story.Ê All for the love of his family. Ê

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "I killed my father. I did not know it then, but I know it now." Thus begins Bart Bauer's memoir and his struggle to come to terms with a decision made in 1994 that hastened his father's death. The 80-year-old author looks back over his growing-up years as the son of a small-town butcher. "I was a willing assistant to my father. Just about every day, we killed something to meet the needs of our customers. We slaughtered cattle in a one-room, unheated slaughterhouse. In winter, wearing blood-encrusted coveralls, we kept our hands warm handling steaming entrails. In summer, we worked bare-chested when scalding hogs." He recalls his father's passion for hunting fox and raccoon. And his dad's love for his dogs-and the tragedy that nearly occurred when a neighbor shot one of his beloved dogs. Now an old man, the author struggles with the mystery of death, thinks about the deaths of family members and how they died, and speculates on how he will die, questioning the existence of a hereafter.

Book excerpt: The Edgar Award–winning novel by the “master of nail-biting suspense”(Los Angeles Times) Thomas Perry exploded onto the literary scene with The Butcher’s Boy. Back in print by popular demand, this spectacular debut, from a writer of “infernal ingenuity” (The New York Times Book Review), includes a new Introduction by bestselling author Michael Connelly. Murder has always been easy for the Butcher’s Boy—it’s what he was raised to do. But when he kills the senior senator from Colorado and arrives in Las Vegas to pick up his fee, he learns that he has become a liability to his shadowy employers. His actions attract the attention of police specialists who watch the world of organized crime, but though everyone knows that something big is going on, only Elizabeth Waring, a bright young analyst in the Justice Department, works her way closer to the truth, and to the frightening man behind it. Praise for The Butcher’s Boy “A stunning debut . . . a brilliantly plotted thriller.”—The Washington Post “A shrewdly planned and executed thriller.”—The New York Times Book Review “Thomas Perry has hit the mark.”—Houston Chronicle “Totally enthralling.”—The New Yorker
