Book Description
This is the story of two young men finding their way in the world. It isn't the easiest thing when you either don't have the money or the know how to do it. All these boys had was determination and a higher power to guide them. How else could someone get into so many situations and come out unscathed, and the better for it each time. This book is about learning to do what's right, the strength to overcome all odds despite your circumstances. The most important thing is it doesn't matter where you start, it's where you end up that counts. These boys find out humility is what makes us all stay grounded, and thinking too much of yourself never gets you far. The thought of judging others is out of the question because no two people go through the same experiences or learn the same lessons, you simply make the most out of every journey.

Book Description
"A compassionate yet clear-eyed" (Washington Post) portrait of country music’s founding father and "Hillbilly King." Mark Ribowsky’s Hank has been hailed as the "greatest biography yet" (Library Journal, starred review) of the beloved icon. Hank Williams, a frail, flawed man who had become country music’s first real star, instantly morphed into its first tragic martyr when he died in the backseat of a Cadillac at the age of twenty-nine. Six decades later, Ribowsky traces the miraculous rise of this music legend?from the dirt roads of rural Alabama to the now-immortal stage of the Grand Ole Opry, and, finally, to a lonely end on New Year’s Day in 1953. Examining Williams’s chart-topping hits while also re-creating days and nights choked in booze and desperation, Hank uncovers the real man beneath the myths, reintroducing us to an American original whose legacy, like a good night at the honkytonk, promises to carry on and on.

Book Description
Starting in the 1950s, Americans eagerly built the planet’s largest public work: the 42,795-mile National System of Interstate and Defense Highways. Before the concrete was dry on the new roads, however, a specter began haunting them—the highway killer. He went by many names: the “Hitcher,” the “Freeway Killer,” the “Killer on the Road,” the “I-5 Strangler,” and the “Beltway Sniper.” Some of these criminals were imagined, but many were real. The nation’s murder rate shot up as its expressways were built. America became more violent and more mobile at the same time. Killer on the Road tells the entwined stories of America’s highways and its highway killers. There’s the hot-rodding juvenile delinquent who led the National Guard on a multistate manhunt; the wannabe highway patrolman who murdered hitchhiking coeds; the record promoter who preyed on “ghetto kids” in a city reshaped by freeways; the nondescript married man who stalked the interstates seeking women with car trouble; and the trucker who delivered death with his cargo. Thudding away behind these grisly crime sprees is the story of the interstates—how they were sold, how they were built, how they reshaped the nation, and how we came to equate them with violence. Through the stories of highway killers, we see how the “killer on the road,” like the train robber, the gangster, and the mobster, entered the cast of American outlaws, and how the freeway—conceived as a road to utopia—came to be feared as a highway to hell.

Book Description
From an astonishing new voice on the American literary landscape comes a powerful, haunting novel set against the harsh beauty of rural Vermont. In Mercy Road Dalia Pagani exposes the soul of a wounded family, holding us captive under a spell of unforgettable characters in a mythic place. On a rocky, windswept mountain ridge at the end of Mercy Road lives a family called Summer. Earl and Darlene, trappers born to the ridge, rooted to the land, struggle to find hope and love in an unforgiving place. Butch is their firstborn--with his father's brawn and his mother's tenderness, he would become his brother's keeper. Then Sid, the strange, silent son, willed to live by his mother's fierce love. And Tina, the only daughter, full of promise, but in whose heart beats her family's madness. For the Summers, a difficult life comes apart one fall day when Darlene does the unthinkable, fleeing the ridge for a long, strange winter in New York. In the wake of her flight, each of the Summers is driven, as if by the land itself, to make choices that will shape the rest of their lives. In the hands of a remarkable writer, Mercy Road becomes an epic drama of heroism and redemption, of the forces that bind us to the land that gave us roots, and of what is passed from generation to generation. At once fierce and tender, raw and lyrical, Mercy Road is a riveting portrait of an unseen corner of the American landscape. From the Hardcover edition.
