The #1 New York Times–bestselling account: “There have been many books on Pearl Harbor . . . but none of them have equaled Lord’s” (Stephen E. Ambrose). The Day of Infamy began as a quiet morning on the American naval base at Pearl Harbor. But as Japan’s deadly torpedoes suddenly rained down on the Pacific fleet, soldiers, generals, and civilians alike felt shock, then fear, then rage. From the chaos, a thousand personal stories of courage emerged. Drawn from hundreds of interviews, letters, and diaries, Walter Lord recounts the many tales of heroism and tragedy by those who experienced the attack firsthand. From the musicians of the USS Nevada who insisted on finishing “The Star Spangled Banner” before taking cover, to the men trapped in the capsized USS Oklahoma who methodically voted on the best means of escape, each story conveys the terror and confusion of the bombing raid, as well as the fortitude of those who survived.
From the suburban sprawl of 1960s Bloomington, Minnesota, to a stereotypical family farm in western Illinois, to a mid-sized enclave of oil and rusted iron in Ohio, the life journey of Mike Pickett ambles through the last gasp of the Industrial Age and into a digitized world where we imagine ourselves to be different from the thousands of generations that preceded us. These moral-laced stories are full of beauty, joy, struggle, and determination, utilizing the backdrop of some rather unique moments: a chat with Neil Armstrong days after his moon landing, a 30-year feud with Cal Ripken, three hours of vodka lemonades with Arnold Palmer, Alex Trebek toasting his marriage and, a bout of thievery in the Clinton White House. Through them all, these elegant, ageless tales of transition celebrate family love and sacrifice, forgiveness, and redemption. Book Review 1: Michael Pickett's marvelous collection of Tales are sometimes hilarious, sometimes somber. The Tales are always genuine and beautifully written as this talented scribe records his adventures straddling two very different chapters of the American Experience. -- Dr. David Wood Author, Reviewer, Former Vice President of the National Book Critics Circle, and Books Editor, Mpls Star & Tribune Book Review 2: Mike Pickett is a writer who pays attention to everyday events and ordinary people on a march through time. Because of his remarkable curiosity and sense of connection, he savors encounters and shares them in this readable, fun and thought-provoking book. Fellow travelers of all ages will appreciate this collection of Tales--short, graceful vignettes and surprising anecdotes, compellingly crafted and ranging in topics from sports and celebrities to family ties. The Tales are animated by Pickett's ability to mix humor with vivid descriptions and insight into the bigger picture. -- Book editor, Cecelia MacDonald, Co-Author, Running the Cobblestones

But the Palmer Latrobe knew was funnier, goofier, saltier, and less grandiose than the one justifiably loved around the globe. In Arnold Palmer: Homespun Stories of the King, journalist, Latrobe resident, and accidental Palmer insider Chris Rodell draws upon over 100 interviews with the golf great conducted over 20 years, providing an intimate, charming, and at times irreverent glimpse at the icon outside the spotlight.

Maxie needs a husband according to her grandmother Goldie. But not just any husband... Hilarious and surprising, this unapologetically Jewish story delivers a present-day take on a highly creative grandmother trying to find her Ph.D granddaughter a husband who is a doctor—with a yarmulke, of course. Goldie Mandell is opinionated, assertive, and stuck in an Assisted Living Facility. But even surrounded by schleppers with walkers, pictures of sunrises and fancy fish tanks, and an array of daily activities to complement the tepid tea and stale cookies on offer, her salt-free plate is full. She’s got a granddaughter to settle, an eager love interest named Harry to subdue, and precious memories of her happy marriage to fellow Holocaust survivor Mordy to draw upon. Maxie Jacobsen is young, brilliant, and newly single, not by choice. But she’s got her science career, a grandmother to care for, and her whole life ahead of her. When Maxie takes on the role of her grandmother’s medical advocate, she has no idea Goldie operates with the single purpose of securing Maxie with Dr. Right. Instead, Maxie is distracted by her grandmother’s unexpectedly charming long-haired, sandal-wearing, peculiarly-named driver, T-Jam Bin Naumann, definitely wrong in every way.
“Just because you can’t see them doesn’t mean they are not there.” After his return to CASSADAGA, reluctant Psychic and Astral Projectionist Bret Wolf, visited the little man for a session of hypnotic regression to try to understand his dreams. While there, he witnessed a dark and mysterious state of awareness and a conveyance he named the Drift. Little did he suspect that he would be drawn into a journey through time and dimensions that would test his physical stamina as well as his unique abilities. Wolf found himself on a World of darkness, one he knew had to exist. With his adamant sense of balance, positives and negatives had to be equal. One could not have a heaven full of positive energies without the converse. Without the valleys there are no mountains. Somewhere there was an anti-heaven where negatives spirits returned after their lives. Wolf learns along the way that when a soul is taken by another soul, that new soul belongs to the one taking it. It is then sent to the dark world, or as the ancients called it the crossroads or the underworld. But he had been injured by a denizen of the underworld, so his soul now belonged to the dark. Yet Wolf was not defeated as his body was not dead ... yet. He was severely injured but in real time was on life support in a Florida Hospital. His only lifeline, his only chance of escape from this world was in the reincarnated spirit of his mother now residing in his eight-year-old daughter. “DARK EXISTS BUT LIGHT MUST BE CREATED, IN THE UNIVERSE AS IN THE SOUL.” “I HAVE TO GET BACK TO MY BODY ...” “YOU CONTROL TIME WHEN YOU DREAM. A FIVE SECOND DREAM CAN BE A FULL DAY TO THE DREAMER.” JM MILNE
