Book Description
"Lifetimes have passed since I left, yet no other place has left the same kind of imprint," says Matthew Davis, narrator of Tom Biel's interlinked collection of short stories set in the badlands of eastern Montana. While the Vietnam War unfurled on the edges of everyday life, even in the small badlands town of Riverside, Matthew's stories recall how he and his friends navigated the tricky, switch-backed roads of life, sometimes barely hanging on. Sometimes not at all. At the heart of Matthew's stories is his best friend, Idaho Wells, whose life is the one most etched in the violence that shapes the beauty of the badlands. Tom Biel's stories look back at a time still so much with us, but as years fade, the stories become a way to remember.

Book Description
Hello fellow Baby Boomers and those who would like to read a book that may explain your parents, grandparents, and some of your great grandparents. This is the story of one of these Baby Boomers, me. My book, A Boomer's Tale, is a fun and sometimes serious stroll through the life and times of me. I interject as much humor as I can, in the hope that I can entertain while educating you starting with my early childhood in the 50's coming of age in the 60's and 70's. My Marine Corps and Vietnam experiences, my post-military life growing a family along with a long-haul trucking career, up till today will entertain and educate. You fellow Boomers and Vietnam vets may see yourself in these pages. This is the kind of book I wish my parents and grandparents would have written, so I could have better known their lives. Foreword: Growing up in the 1960s near Chicago is depicted with wit and charm. Ed introduces the reader to the inside working of the adolescent male mind as he navigates dating and relationship ups and downs. Other Vietnam Era veterans will see themselves in this account and relate to the constant struggle to 'soldier on' when you don't feel like it. This was written at the beginning of what will surely be a creative and productive retirement. Thanks for the memories. Love, Gina

Book Description
A “fascinating, intimate” oral history of the golden age of the rock concert based on nearly 100 interviews with musicians, fans, and others (Publishers Weekly). Decades after the rise of rock music in the 1950s, the rock concert retains its power as a unifying experience—and as a multi-billion-dollar industry. In Rock Concert, acclaimed music writer Marc Myers delves into the history of this cultural phenomenon, weaving together ground-breaking accounts from the people who were there. Myers combines the tales of icons like Joan Baez, Ian Anderson, Alice Cooper, Steve Miller, Roger Waters, and Angus Young with the disc jockeys, audio engineers, and music journalists, and promoters who organized it all, like Michael Lang, co-founder of Woodstock, to create a rounded and vivid account of live rock’s stratospheric rise. Rock Concert offers a backstage view of rock ‘n’ roll as it evolved through live performance—from the rise of R&B in the 1950s, to the hippie gatherings of the ‘60s, and the growing arena tours of the ‘70s and ‘80s. Elvis Presley’s gyrating hips, the “British Invasion” of the Beatles, the Grateful Dead’s free flowing jams, and Pink Floyd’s The Wall are just a few of the defining musical acts that drive this rich narrative.
