Book Description
Boswell is Stanley Elkin's first and funniest novel: the comic odyssey of a twentieth-century groupie who collects celebrities as his insurance policy against death. James Boswell - strong man, professional wrestler (his most heroic match is with the Angel of Death) - is a con man, gate crasher, and moocher of epic talent. He is also a man on the make for all the great men of his time - his logic being that if you can't be a lion, know a pride of them. Can he cheat his way out of morality?

Book Description
Who is Boswell? Boswell is the pseudonym for an award-winning freelance photographer with engaging and sometimes controversial stories to tell. You’ve likely seen his photos in national and international magazines, books and travel brochures. This ebook will describe how an inspiration during his early years in a tiny rural Midwestern town led to a life spent traveling in 130 countries on all seven continents and how a successful business was built by producing a prolific number of marketable photos as a professional stock and assignment photographer. Filled with entertaining anecdotes and accompanied by 99 photos, Boswell’s journey takes readers inside some of the most colorful aspects of editorial and corporate photography: Landing and executing magazine assignments, gaining “special access required” entrée to exclusive corridors of privilege, “seeking serendipity” in the world’s streets, and cruising the world’s seas and oceans -- as well as uncovering some dark sides of the industry. Just a few stories include: Waiting for Mandela, chasing Doctor Death, repatriating skyjackers from Cuba, attending Zimbabwe’s first session of parliament, surviving the Drake Passage, standing on stage with the Lord of the Dance, roving the pits with famous race drivers, hanging with a Piston Bad Boy, chumming with Sparky in the Tigers locker room, and being interviewed by oral historian Studs Turkel while taking his portrait. One of the first Americans to visit Mao’s China during the Cultural Revolution, Boswell returned over fifty times to produce books on China, including a very large one stolen by the French. Several chapters of his unlikely story are devoted to travels in China, how specializing in that country proved a key to his photographic success, and why he fell in love in a rice paddy.

Book Description
* “Eloquently written and packed full of suspense, debut author Cosimano strikes gold with this page-turning thriller that will have teens chomping at the bit to get to the end.”—School Library Journal, starred review Nearly Boswell knows how to keep secrets. Living in a DC trailer park, she knows better than to share anything that would make her a target with her classmates. Like her mother's job as an exotic dancer, her obsession with the personal ads, and especially the emotions she can taste when she brushes against someone's skin. But when a serial killer goes on a killing spree and starts attacking students, leaving cryptic ads in the newspaper that only Nearly can decipher, she confides in the one person she shouldn't trust: the new guy at school—a reformed bad boy working undercover for the police, doing surveillance. . . on her. Nearly might be the one person who can put all the clues together, and if she doesn't figure it all out soon—she'll be next.
