Book Description
Just a Grocer’s Son chronicles the life of an Italian American family which settled in a small twentieth century American industrial community to establish a neighborhood grocery store. This small neighborhood grocery store existed for more than a century throughout three generations of families. During those one hundred years, the author, his brothers, and their father were grocer’s sons, working in the store business as children. This book details the trials and tribulations of one family of Italian immigrants and their sacrifices and struggles through Prohibition, the Depression, World War II, and the reality of the gradual disappearance of the small neighborhood grocery store. The book records the memories of Danny, the son of Italian parents, Abe and Minnie Frizzi, who joined his parents in the grocery business in 1948. His story continues through the memories of his own son, Danny Jr., who from an early age worked with his grandfather Abe and father Danny throughout grade school, high school, and college. Living in a small community where more than forty small neighborhood grocery stores once existed, this family business was the last to survive. Just a Grocer’s Son tells a story of immigrants, of family, and of small neighborhoods throughout the twentieth century. This is a uniquely American story about the sad disappearance of small neighborhood grocery stores.

Book Description
Behind Closed Doors Surveillance expert Seth Mackey knows everything about the women that his millionaire boss toys with--and tosses aside. Her vulnerable beauty haunts him and her fresh innocence stirs a white-hot passion that he can barely control. Raine is pure temptation, but Seth has something more important to take care of first. He's convinced that his boss, Victor Lazar, is responsible for his half-brother's murder. He cannot put his secret investigation at risk, but he can't stop wanting her--craving her--and soon he knows he can't let Victor have her. For Raine may be Victor's next victim. . . Standing in the Shadows Connor McCloud won’t forget the day his friend Ed Riggs almost killed him. It cost Connor what he wants most—Ed's daughter Erin. He can't have her now, but she still haunts him. When an old enemy resurfaces, Connor will do anything to protect her. Out of Control Davy McCloud has one rule: never follow blind impulse when it comes to women. But he breaks it when Margo Vetter shows up. The sexual hunger--and the instinctual protectiveness--she awakens are too strong to resist. Edge of Midnight On the very day an arsonist burns down Liv Endicott's bookstore, she finds another shock; Sean McCloud. He's still the man she’s always wanted. But wanting is not the same as trusting, and she doesn't dare let him get close. But a ruthless killer is gunning for Liv, and she'll die unless they join forces to unearth a chilling truth--and come together in a blaze of searing passion... Extreme Danger Nobody's home when Becca Cantrell takes a midnight skinnydip--and is hauled out by a guy with burning eyes. He is the embodiment of her most intense fantasies. And she's up for risky thrills... Nick Ward can't tell Becca that he's spying on a vicious Russian crime boss. She could be an assassin sent to kill him, a call girl sent to distract him, or worst of all--a clueless innocent. Anyway he looks at it, she's trouble: beautiful, bare, dripping-wet trouble... Ultimate Weapon Val Janos is all about undercover operations. He is mysterious, sinister, and lethally hot. Only Tamara can understand--and match--the intensity that drives him to win at all costs. Val has one weak spot: Imre, the man who befriended him when he was a kid abandoned on the streets of Budapest. But Val’s worst enemy knows about Imre, and his head is on the block if Val doesn't deliver Tam... Fade to Midnight If the wrong person learned of Edie Parrish's gift, her life would be in danger, so she is good at keeping people away. But when Kev Larson discovers who she is, Edie's only choice is to trust him. And soon, Edie can't resist her consuming desire--even though she knows she'll have to pay a price for it.

Book Description
This is a sequel to, When September Comes. A story based partially on life about a family who had for generations lost their women to a genetic flaw. Helen Coulson-Kovac had not only inherited the gene, but like her mother, would push into her subconscious the knowledge of dying young. Curiously, this feat enabled her to see humor in ordinary things as she tried to compress a lifetime of joy into few precious years. Motherless at seventeen, a coming of age experience with an out-of-town stranger completely devastated the deeply moral Helen. Morality however, had to be put aside when her lover vanished and she had to find another to play father to her unborn child. Helen found that there are times when a human flaw can become a gratuity from a Higher Source. Few however, can know which mistake might actually enrich our lives. If we did, we´d experiment with making them and have fun too. No matter how she tried, Helen could never forget her first love. Aside the diverse tangents that play a role in her remarkable life, how she goes about the task of separating fantasy from reality, is what this love story is about. Like most chronicles, this one encompasses the joy of growing up, the mysterious stirring of first love, and the inevitable heartache that touches most of us. How a valiant woman and the man she loves, confronts her predestined fate can make this an epic not easily forgotten.

Book Description
This title was first published in 2000: This volume tells the fascinating story of the origins, development, growth and survival of a small country brewery in Hampshire. Employing and analyzing a wealth of original documentation, it examines the local environment both before establishment of the brewery and during the 150 years of its existence. While the performance of Gales Brewery is examined in the context of the British brewing industry as a whole, the thread of family involvement is woven throughout the volume. The contribution of contrasting individual entrepreneurs is examined in absorbing detail, from the half century of domination by George Alexander Gale to the subsequent century of contribution by the Bowyer family. Gales is exceptional in being one of the very few family breweries to survive the mania of mergers and takeovers in the brewing industry. This very readable book will be of considerable interest to business, economic, family and local historians.

Book Description
Greg Wallace, a young World War II pilot from Texas, is stranded on a Pacific island after his plane is shot down. Well-trained and basically a decent man, he settles in to wait for rescue in a fashion that will do his military training credit. But as the novel deepens, it is increasingly obvious--to reader and to Gregory Wallace--that rescue is a dream.

Book Description
Most marketing scholars implicitly consider independent merchants as conservative and passive actors, and study the modernization of retailing via department stores, chains and supermarkets. In this innovative study, Franck Cochoy challenges this perspective and takes a close look at the transformation of commerce through the lens of Progressive Grocer, an American trade magazine launched in 1922. Aimed at modernizing small independent grocery stores, Progressive Grocer sowed the seeds for modern self-service which spread in small retail outlets, sometimes well before the advent of the large retail spaces which are traditionally viewed as the origin of the self-service economy. The author illustrates how this publication had a highly influential role on what the trade considered to be best practice and shaped what was considered to be cutting edge. By displacing the consumer and their agency from the centre of analytic attention, this innovative book highlights the complex impact of social, technical and retailing environment factors that structure and delimit consumer freedom in the marketplace. This detailed critical analysis of the origins of self-service will be of interest to a wide variety of scholars not only in marketing and consumer research, but also in business history, sociology and cultural studies.
