Book Description
Six fascinating and touching diaries are discovered in an old rooming house that detail the lives of the owners and tenants spanning over a century of change in Chicago’s Back-of-the-Yards neighborhood. An unwed pregnant teen shows up; a teen from Paris, France appears, the result of a relationship during World War I; the first Mexican in the neighborhood is given a room and eventually inherits the place, his diary describes his young life running the streets in Tijuana, Mexico and how the rooming house served undocumented AIDS clients. The matriarch leaves a long-hidden diary that details her undisclosed life of brothels. Filled with love, life and family secrets, The Rooming House Diaries prove DNA does not always make a complete family.

Book Description
The gunfight at the O.K. Corral has excited the imaginations of Western enthusiasts ever since that chilly October afternoon in 1881 when Doc Holliday and the three fighting Earps strode along a Tombstone, Arizona, street to confront the Clanton and McLaury brothers. When they met, Billy Clanton and the two McLaurys were shot to death; the popular image of the Wild West was reinforced; and fuel was provided for countless arguments over the characters, motives, and actions of those involved. And Die in the West presents the first fully detailed, objective narrative of the celebrated gunfight, of the tensions leading up to it, and the bitter, bloody events that followed. Paula Mitchell Marks places the events surrounding the gunfight against a larger backdrop of a booming Tombstone and the fluid, frontier environment of greed, factions and violence. In the process, Marks strips away many of the myths associated with the famous gunfight and of the West in general.

Book Description
Much has changed in the world of self-taught art since the millennium. Many of the recognized "masters" have died and new artists have emerged. Many galleries have closed but few new ones have opened, as artists and dealers increasingly sell through websites and social media. The growth and popularity of auction houses have altered the relationship between artists and collectors. In its third edition, this book provides updated information on artists, galleries, museums, auctions, organizations and publications for both experienced and aspiring collectors of self-taught, outsider and folk art. Gallery and museum entries are organized geographically and alphabetically by state and city.

Book Description
Dirty Pictures is an introduction novel with an overplaying plot that extends to the story And They Played Loneliness. Its about an Italian woman, Regina, thirty-two, a massage technician for the Hot Tub Place, who gets so involved into bisexualism that she realizes almost too late that there is a new kind of girl out there and those girls are scaring her. She meets Tess, a woman who rejects her and teases her with other women. Regina is so upset by her actions and causal encounters with other women that one gets her into trouble with mind control and another attacks her. All the while, her roommate, the beautiful, charming young Italian, Gloria, is trying to get her to quit having affairs with women altogether and bails her out of trouble when she falls victim into a mystery of a sex scam. Regina is brought up the hard way in life and does her early years as a table dancer. She has very little problems making friends, and she carries with her good ideas for others to use to better their life. She loves people in general, but these trying situations force her to look at herself. If youre searching for something different to read, Dirty Pictures may fill that void.
