Book Description
This monster Rock-n-Roll survey focuses on the songs and the vibrant personalities who create them, for college audiences and the general public. Dean published the world's first history of Rock in 1966. Here, in his ebullient style, he buzzes through piles of musical singles from the whole last half century, describing what is fun about each major and minor hit, pointing out what elements were exciting or new or significant in the development of musical styles. He relates some tantalizing tidbits about the earlier musical heritage that artists have drawn upon in crafting ever more amazing evolutions of rock music. This snappy, witty and informative album has universal appeal, doubling as a coffee-table trivia treasure and a college-level popular music history text. It includes hundreds of photos, chapter questions, and an extensive index. Reader-friendly and informationally complete, it covers soft rock, heavy metal, rhythm & blues, country rock and classic oldies, all with tender loving care, for the specialist and casual listener alike. Its mini-portraits of the artists who move so many hearts (and feet), the photos and the insightful sound bites get to the essence of each song and each musician's contribution to the music of our age. The single-song focus makes the book unique. It's a playlist for R'n'R professors and the general public, written with a collegiate vocabulary, tight organization and a respect for all. "Hearing Elvis for the first time was like busting out of jail." - Bob Dylan That being said, no one is being incited, here, to bust out of jail or to emulate the quixotic habits of rock stars. "There's nothing in here to hide from the kids, the clergy or grandma." Gold Rush can be used as a university or community college text, but most people will grab it for the sheer pleasure of reading about everyone's favorites. Great gift for Rock enthusiasts. Gold Rush is the first book of its kind to feature a celebration of the great single songs of the rock era and beyond. Gold Rush takes thousands of songs, spanning three centuries, and brings them back uniquely as if they came out just yesterday. Gold Rush unites the Anglo-American and later worldwide spirit of Rock and Roll in a tapestry of interconnected melodies and adventures. As Leonard Maltin's Movie Guide helps you select videos at Blockbuster, so Gold Rush is a powerful playlist for your music collection, with many new and fascinating photos of favorite stars. Gold Rush explains the most important stories behind the songs you picked to be played, the songs that 'went gold,' from the 1897 Alaska/Klondike Gold Rush to the #1 songs of today and beyond.

Book Description
The corner of Truth Avenue and Pain Street is Valley City's butt crack part of town. Eight teenagers, the Gangsters & Retards, live there: Moon, a blind and deaf girl who practices aikido; Carlos, a Mexican-American rapper in a lowrider wheelchair; Bryan, a basketball loving boy with Down syndrome; Mad Girl, a pregnant fourteen-year-old Latina with major anger issues; Pho, a humongous Vietnamese skateboarder/tagger; Janice, a Jewish-American princess with leg braces and crutches; Dutch, a less than smart white boy wigger; and Learoy, a totally hot sixteen-year-old African-American girl. In this episode, convinced his failed attempts at breaking into the hip hop music scene are due to his Hispanic ethnicity, Carlos pretends he's black to catch a music label's attention. But when a record exec appears with a contract, Carlos obviously doesn't have the right skin color, and in the wink of an eye his falsified identity slips away from him. The absurd world of Valley City serves as the backdrop as Carlos plays a cat and mouse game to regain both his persona and the seven friends swept into the mess he creates. Cartoon realism misadventures ensue as this humorous novel of love, lies, power, corruption, and everyday existence makes you laugh and cry while possibly offending your sensibilities.

Book Description
I am rejuvenating from Summer-break. Ready to get the school year started. Knowing that my year will have its struggles. That's my job. To help structure and teach the lives have headstrong, ill-mannered, and ill-natured kids. I am not realizing at that moment, that my struggles were going to be with the adults. My coworkers. The people I am supposed to count on. My team. I realize that adults can be worse than kids. I never imagined getting bullied at work. Especially from grown adults. I thought we were a team. We are supposed to support one another, not tear each other down. We work at a school for troubled kids, but yet the trouble coming from the adult minds. We are supposed to be examples, role models for these young children. Who are mentally still growing? However, we are teaching them to lie, hurt one another, and do whatever it takes to bring your peers down. So you can get ahead. Our kids are not dumb. They know what's going on, they see it. They are smarter than you think. Bullying does not just happen in your young life. It can happen to anyone at any time. So many people get bullied at their place of work. Sometimes the victim has nowhere else to turn but to turn to social media. When you so caught up in the torment that you can't think right. Your brain is on fire. From all the suffering, confusion, questions, and sadness. That when you're in the crossfire, you can't think clearly. To stand up for yourself. When you finally do stand up for yourself. You are in tears, shaky, anxious, terrified, and have so many thoughts flashing through your fired brain. Your higher up does not agree with you. He agrees with the bullies who are clear-minded. Who are the master manipulators? Who have their thoughts together? I had to walk through the crossfires this year — the fire of feeling mentally alone, not wanting to go to the job I once loved so much, feeling a heavy weight on my shoulder, not being able to escape reality. The reality of my life. The truth of getting bullied, not knowing where my life will be in a month from now. The ups and downs I have to face, of my everyday life. Questions I have to ask. The questions are, will I escape the torment? Will I be a survivor? Or will I end up giving up on myself? Will the bullies once again get away with murder? Will the truth prevail?
