Book Description
Day of the Dead Book Two: America begins where Day of the Dead Book One: Gaza left off. ISIS is about to launch the deadliest mass-casualty terrorist attack in history against the United States, by way of drug smuggling tunnels that lead from the drug cartel-ruled hills of Tijuana, into downtown San Diego. The only thing standing between them and the people they intend to slaughter are a beautiful, Born Again Christian CIA Agent, an over-the-hill FBI counter-terrorist whose main function in life is covering up for government foul-ups, a New Mexico born-and-raised DEA Agent, a black, twenty-year veteran of the Navy SEAL Teams, and a forty-five-year-old American-born, Israeli-raised intelligence officer from the Givati Brigade, on loan from the IDF. "In Day of the Dead, Gordon has written a frighteningly realistic thriller, a page-turner which paints a compelling portrait of Mid-East combat and espionage, in the age of ISIS and Hamas." -Steven Pressfield, Best-Selling author of Gates of Fire and The Lion's Gate "Dan Gordon has crafted a tale about the vicious world of radical Islamists, criminal gangs, and their victims. His incredible 40 years of service in the Israel Defense Force, knowledge of the US and the Middle East, and ability to spell-bind enables readers to feel the pulse of terror and see into the dark minds of evil incarnate. Day of the Dead: Book One - Gaza is a gripping story as real as today's and tomorrow's shocking headlines." -General Robert Magnus, USMC (Ret) 30th Asst Commandant of the USMC "Gordon gets inside the mind of a terrorist like no other author since Tom Clancy." -Leo Hohmann, World News Daily

Book Description
The Day of the Dead is the most important annual celebration in Oaxaca, Mexico. Skillfully combining textual information and photographic imagery, this book begins with a discussion of the people of Oaxaca, their way of life, and their way of looking at the world. It then takes the reader through the celebration from the preparations that can begin months in advance through to the private gatherings in homes and finally to the cemetery where the villagers celebrate together — both the living and the dead. The voices in the book are of those people who have participated in the Day of the Dead for as long as they can remember. There are no ghosts here. Only the souls of loved ones who have gone to the Village of the Dead and who are allowed to return once a year to be with their family. Very readable and beautifully illustrated, this book provides an extensive discussion of the people of Oaxaca, their way of life and their beliefs, which make the Day of the Dead logical and easily comprehensible.

Book Description
Challenging the widely held assumption that gothic literature is mainly about fear, Agnieszka Soltysik Monnet argues that the American Gothic, and gothic literature in general, is also about judgment. Analyzing canonical works by Poe, Hawthorne, Melville, Gilman, and James, Monnet persuasively argues that these authors' concerns about slavery, gender, and sexuality tacitly inform works that deal explicitly with less controversial subjects.
