The Huey Long Murder Case
Summary
This book is the true story of a Louisiana governor and US senator who sought power - real power. Huey Long had plans to run against Franklin D. Roosevelt for the presidency. Until an assassin sought to end that plan. It is said that Huey Long had designs on becoming a dictator of sorts. But those plans, if he actually had them, ended with his death.

His The Huey Long Murder case tells with exquisite detail the ins and outs of Huey the man, his hold on Louisiana voters, the confrontation with the would-be assassin, the aftermath of his death, and conclusions about some of the pressing questions of the case: Who actually did it?

The Clara Nevada
Summary
February 5, 1898. Witnesses report a giant orange fireball reflected in the glacial waters of Alaska's Lynn Canal. At the height of Klondike gold fever, the Clara Nevada disappeared into an epic storm - taking passengers and priceless cargo with it. Was the explosion an accident or a robbery gone wrong? Did Captain C.H. Lewis make off with $165,000 ($13.6 million in today's currency) in raw gold? Or was the sinking a case of a sea-weary steamer meeting an untimely end? Alaska historian Steven C. Levi combs the archives to piece together the true account of the Clara Nevada's final voyage, attempting to solve the riddle of the lost steamer that resurfaced 10 years after that tragic night and became known as Alaska's ghost ship.

Discourse and Defiance under Nazi Occupation: Guernsey, Channel Islands, 1940-1945
Summary
Captured by German forces shortly after Dunkirk, and not relinquished until May of 1945, nearly a year after the Normandy invasion, the British Channel Islands (Guernsey, Jersey, Alderney, Sark, and Herm) were characterized during their occupation by severe deprivation and powerlessness. The Islanders, with few resources to stage an armed resistance, constructed a rhetorical resistance based upon the manipulation of discourse, construction of new symbols, and defiance of German restrictions on information. Though much of modern history has focused on the possibility that Islanders may have collaborated with the Germans, this eye-opening history turns to secret war diaries kept in Guernsey. A close reading of these private accounts, written at great risk to the diarists, allows those who actually experienced the Occupation to reclaim their voice and reveals new understandings of Island resistance. What emerges is a stirring account of the unquenchable spirit and deft improvisation of otherwise ordinary people in extraordinary circumstances. Under the most dangerous of conditions, Guernsey civilians used imaginative methods in reacting to their position as a subjugated population, devising a covert resistance of nuance and sustainability. Violence, this book and the people of Guernsey demonstrate, is not at all the only means with which to confront evil. The book is published by Michigan State University Press.

Lake Monster Mysteries
Summary
For centuries, eyewitnesses around the world - from America to Africa, Argentina to Scotland - have reported sightings of dark, mysterious creatures in area lakes that surface briefly, only to quickly disappear. While the most famous lake monsters of Loch Ness and Lake Champlain have gained international notoriety, hundreds of lakes around the world are said to shelter these shadowy creatures. Lake Monster Mysteries is the first book to examine these widespread mysteries from a scientific perspective. By using exhaustive research and results from firsthand investigations to help separate truth from myth, the authors foster our understanding of what really lurks in the cold, murky depths. Benjamin Radford and Joe Nickell are considered to be among the top lake monster authorities in the world. Here they share unique insights into many of the world's best-known lake monsters. They interview witnesses and local experts and discuss the different types of lake monster sightings, delve into possible explanations for those sightings, and examine hoaxes, evidence claims, and legends surrounding the monsters. The authors have also conducted groundbreaking fieldwork and experiments at the lakes and have examined recent photographic and sonar evidence. The book is published by The University Press of Kentucky. The audiobook is published by University Press Audiobooks. "A most enjoyable read and I guarantee you will learn much from these intelligent researchers." (John Kirk, author of In the Domain of the Lake Monsters) "The most up-to-date, definitive, scientific assessment of the evidence for and against the existence of lake monsters." (Robert E. Bartholomew, coauthor of Panic Attacks) "For those who are interested in these mysteries, it makes good reading." (WTBF Radio)
