Book Description
Few thoroughfares offer as rich a history as Louisiana's River Road between New Orleans and Baton Rouge. In this third edition of her extremely popular guide, Along the River Road, Mary Ann Sternberg provides a revised introduction, new images, and updated information on sites and attractions as well as tales and local lore about favorite and overlooked destinations. Featuring background information about the area and a detailed guided tour -- upriver on the east bank and downriver along the west -- the book gives an overview of the River Road, serving as an accessible and definitive companion to exploring the corridor. Sternberg's abiding appreciation of the area's allure, garnered over twenty years, produces a must-have travel companion to a place that far exceeds its common reputation as only a parade of elegant antebellum mansions. In this new edition, she again encourages travelers to experience the many treasures of this wondrous byway for themselves, so they too can see how much it has changed over the past decade.

Ben is a man on the move - in bars, in night clubs and in seedy pubs down Nairobi's River Road, where he meets Wini, a single mother trying to make it in the big city.

Book Description
Life is not easy when you are twelve and mad. Alex Thompson feels abandoned by his dad when his father leaves him and goes to war in Iraq. Fearing that her son's anger will turn into hatred, his mother asks her father, Dr. Jason Jamison, for help. On a camping trip, Alex asks his grandfather if he ever felt abandoned. In response, Jason tells about a time over fifty years earlier when he was fourteen and innocent. In 1954, life was simple and carefree. All Jason and his best friend, George Alexander, wanted to do was to play baseball when their tranquility was shattered. Polio paralyzed George, and fear griped Smithville, Kansas, because there was no polio vaccine at the time, and anybody could be the next victim. Jason was upset and felt abandoned when his father, the town physician, sent him to stay with his grandparents on Ash Creek Farm. Moreover, George's parents abandoned their paralyzed son by sending him to a nursing home and nobody seemed to care. How could Jason help George when he was isolated on the farm and miles away from his friend? Will Jason's story help Alex understand and accept his own father's obligation?
