Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pianist in a Bordello What would happen if a politician decided to tell the truth-the whole truth? Richard Youngblood, aspiring Congressman, is about to find out. He's running on a platform of honesty and transparency-and against the advice of his friends and advisers he's decided to start with himself. His autobiography will lay his entire life bare before voters just days before the election. And what a life he's had. Born in a commune and named Richard Milhous Nixon Youngblood as an angry shot at his absent father, Richard grows up in the spotlight, the son of an enigmatic fugitive and the grandson of a Republican senator. He's kidnapped and rescued, kicked out of college for a prank involving turkeys, arrested in Hawaii while trying to deliver secrets to the CIA...Dick Nixon Youngblood's ready to tell all. He'll even tell his readers about the Amandas-three women who share a name but not much else, and who each have helped shape and define the man he's become. Are voters really ready for the whole truth? Are you? Pianist in a Bordello is a hilarious political romp through the last four decades of American history, from a narrator who is full of surprises.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The account begins as a true ghost story based on actual events. After an unsettling, modern day, ghostly encounter at a crumbling 1920's bordello in Jerome, Arizona, the author sets out on a quest and uncovers some deplorable secrets regarding the attractive, but devious Madam that once resided there. This curvaceous Madam began her career in the early 1900's in the red light district of Storyville in New Orleans. It was there where she met and eventually married the famous Jelly Roll Morton. She frequently changed her name and even her race in order to accommodate g=her ever-changing circumstances. She bleached her skin and straighten her hair as if to deny her African heritage ... or was it just a trick of her trade? Constantly on the move, she operated the Arcade Saloon in the pioneer town of Las Vegas, Nevada, and then a jazz club in San Francisco. Moving on to the rich mining town of Jerome, Arizona, she ran a "house of pleasure" called the Cuban Queen Bordello. Much went on behind her closed doors, where gambling, prostitution, and bootlegged whiskey were always on the menu. Late one night in 1927, one of her working girls was murdered in her own bed. This cunning madam, along with her handsome accomplice, kidnapped the dead girl's baby boy and slipped out of town never to be heard from again.... until now."--Back cover.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Iwan Bloch, a pioneer of psycho-sexual studies alongside Krafft-Ebing, was the first biographer of the Marquis de Sade and also the discoverer in 1903 of de Sade's manuscript of The 120 Days Of Sodom, previously thought to be lost forever. Bloch's Life And Works Of De Sade, first published in 1899, remains one of the best accounts of the life of the "Divine Marquis” and is a fascinating biographical, historical and psychoanalytical work. Bloch first provides a shocking account of France in the time of de Sade, detailing its debaucheries, prostitution, pornography, crime and punishment before examining the Marquis' own life both in and out of prison. He also examines in depth de Sade's major works, including Justine, Juliette, Philosophy In The Boudoir and - in an appendix taken from Bloch's New Research On De Sade (1904) - The 120 Days Of Sodom. The closing part of Bloch's analysis is devoted to an examination of de Sade's psycho-sexual proclivities, establishing the term "sadism” and presenting one of the first major psychopathologies of this perversion and its prime purveyor.
