Book Description
Johannesburg, South Africa, was ? and is ? the Frontier of Money. Within months of its founding, the mining camp was host to organised crime: the African 'Regiment of the Hills' and 'Irish Brigade' bandits. Bars, brothels, boarding houses and hotels oozed testosterone and violence, and the use of fists and guns was commonplace. Beyond the chaos were clear signs of another struggle, one to maintain control, honour and order within the emerging male and mining dominated culture. In the underworld, the dictum of 'honour among thieves', as well as a hatred of informers, testified to attempts at self-regulation. A 'real man' did not take advantage of an opponent by employing underhand tactics. It had to be a 'fair fight' if a man was to be respected. This was the world that 'One-armed Jack' McLoughlin - brigand, soldier, sailor, mercenary, burglar, highwayman and safe-cracker - entered in the early 1890s to become Johannesburg's most infamous 'Irish' anti-hero and social bandit. McLoughlin's infatuation with George Stevenson prompted him to recruit the young Englishman into his gang of safe-crackers but 'Stevo' was a man with a past and primed for personal and professional betrayal. It was a deadly mixture. Honour could only be retrieved through a Showdown at the Red Lion.

But just because this concert is over doesn’t mean the Cheetahs are ready to pack up and head home. There’s a rodeo in town, and Galleria is gonna get the Cheetah Girls up on stage—if she has to rope a bull to do it! As if bucking broncos and tough-talking cowboys weren’t enough trouble, another band accuses the Cheetahs of the worst crime of all: stealing lyrics. But Galleria won’t back down.

Book Description
Roger Zottis latest collection of essays, Best Served Cold, is mostly a true book with some stretchers, as Mark Twains Huck Finn says about Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. In part one, Zotti focuses on sports, while in part two hes concerned with books and movies. Agree or disagree with his views, its certain that Best Served Cold is an entertaining and informative mix of concise and inventive writings.
