Описание: THIS GUT-WRENCHING FIRSTHAND ACCOUNT OF THE WAR IS A CLASSIC IN THE ANNALS OF VIETNAM LITERATURE.

"Guns up " was the battle cry that sent machine gunners racing forward with their M60s to mow down the enemy, hoping that this wasn't the day they would meet their deaths. Marine Johnnie Clark heard that the life expectancy of a machine gunner in Vietnam was seven to ten seconds after a firefight began. Johnnie was only eighteen when he got there, at the height of the bloody Tet Offensive at Hue, and he quickly realized the grim statistic held a chilling truth.
The Marines who fought and bled and died were ordinary men, many still teenagers, but the selfless bravery they showed day after day in a nightmarish jungle war made them true heroes. This new edition of Guns Up , filled with photographs and updated information about those harrowing battles, also contains the real names of these extraordinary warriors and details of their lives after the war. The book's continuing success is a tribute to the raw courage and sacrifice of the United States Marines.

Описание: The all-embracing, "whaddya got?" nature of rebellion in Fifties America included pop music's unlikely challenge to entrenched notions of masculinity. Within that upheaval, four prominent artists dared to behave in ways that let the public assume—but not see—their queerness. That these artists cultivated ambiguous sexual personas often reflected an understandable fear, but also a struggle to fulfill personal and professional expectations.Vincent L. Stephens confronts notions of the closet—both coming out and staying in—by analyzing the careers of Liberace, Johnny Mathis, Johnnie Ray, and Little Richard. Appealing to audiences hungry for novelty and exoticism, the four pop icons used performance and queering techniques that ran the gamut. Liberace's flamboyance shared a spectrum with Mathis's intimate sensitivity while Ray's overwrought displays as "Mr. Emotion" seemed worlds apart from Little Richard's raise-the-roof joyousness. As Stephens shows, the quartet not only thrived in an era of gray flannel manhood, they pioneered the ways generations of later musicians would consciously adopt sexual mystery as an appealing and proven route to success.

Описание: John Marshall has been through hell-and made it out alive. Following a troublesome childhood, he battled addiction as an adult but has now been a three-year member of Alcoholics Anonymous and Narcotics Anonymous. He's married and looking to give back as a way of thanking all the people who saved him as a troubled youth. He gets a job at Children's Haven, an adolescent drug rehab center in Florida. He was hired for a very special reason. The higher-ups don't want him for his flexible schedule but because of his personal experiences. Since many staff members don't seem to care for the teens, John is the one who understands what they're going through and can reach out on a personal level. There is nothing simple about recovery, though. John has faced his demons, but he must now help others overcome their own problems. The patients struggle, as does the staff, through moments of pain and tragedy together. The Bridge is poignant, honest, and semi-autobiographical as author Johnnie Calloway shares the fictionalized version of working through addiction in his own life.
