My Weekend Lover edition by AJ Write Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews


  • My first read by this author but it was definitely an amazing read. I could relate to Minx in so many ways that it was scary. But that Wayne is a bad man and knows how to get what he wants. Denise is something honey and got just what she was asking for. Fetish and Lakota are some true ride or die friends and I think we all need at least one of them in our lives.
  • This was such a good book. It showed friendship in ways as blood sisters. They had a wonderful bond and I love how they rode for each other. Wayne is defiantly babe. He was a talker with mad action
  • This book was everything from beginning to end drama action couple up and down suspenseful revelations reveal enjoyed reading happy ending well written
  • This book was everything!! From the beginning to the end I was hooked & couldn’t put it down...Wayne is freaking bae 😍😍 so glad this was a stand-alone book. Highly recommend!!
  • Not to be overly critical, but while this had the makings of a good story, I got tired of Minx putting herself down and having such low self esteem. For the life of me I cannot understand why any women would put up with lying, cheating, no good men! Like really! Minx baby daddy not only did all those things plus steal from her but he also tried to kill the baby! I mean my whole family and all of my friends would come and drag me away from a man like that before allowing me to stay with him. A more critical flaw in this story was all of the misspelled words. That really took away from the story and made me feel like I was reading a story written by a 7th grader.
  • I would love to read a sequel or part about coop or apart about Lucci what was the bomb I really loved it. This is my first time reading any of your books but I'm most definitely a fan
  • Love can happen at anytime a weekend in Vegas with friends. Wayne and Minx where both lost and cupid stepped in and changed there lives to happily ever after.
  • This book was so different and unexpected. I loved it. Wayne wasn’t playing no games with Minx. He was bae all day. Exceptional

Hailed as "a rousing read" by The New York Times, this breathtaking chronicle of Antarctic exploration was written by expedition leader Sir Ernest Shackleton. In 1914 he and his 28-man crew boarded the ship Endurance and sailed away to do something no one had ever done to traverse and chart the mostly unknown territory of the South Pole. But within weeks of their arrival, their vessel became trapped in ice, drifting helplessly for months before sinking and leaving the crew stranded on a melting ice floe.
This account of the expedition's two-year struggle in one of the world's most uninhabitable regions relates a near-miraculous escape from multiple dangers thousands of miles, traveled in lifeboats across tempestuous seas and in unforgiving landscapes of glaciers and icebergs; relentless cold; and the constant threat of starvation. A century later, Shackleton's firsthand account of the crew's harrowing experiences and their triumphant survival remains among the most thrilling adventure stories ever told.

South The Story of Shackleton Last Expedition 19141917 Ernest Shackleton 9780486833132 Books Reviews


  • Sir Ernest Shackleton's last expeditions, headed South, from 1914 to 1917. Shackleton's increasingly dangerous adventures would destroy him one day, everyone said. Now you can read the actual narrative of Shackleton's ill-fated polar expedition, from the pen of the Endurance's captain himself Sir Ernest Shackleton. A life lived for impossible accomplishments, his exploits read as if part adventure fiction, part survivalist canon -- but every word, Shackleton swore as true. This towering British explorer kept a detailed journal which remains as a gripping testament to heroism and survival despite all the odds. If today's long-distance minute-by-minute bulletins keep you glued to your cell phone, here's something much better no fake news, not even in its day, but real exploits to inspire and stoicism to emulate. Give this to a loved one, boy or girl, man or women, for the holiday and on any special day, then offer to discuss it with them when they're done and watch eyes shine.
  • This is the epic real-life adventure of the Shackleton expedition to the Antarctic that goes wrong in every way possible. Their story becomes one of self sacrifice for their comrades and endurance against impossible odds. There is genuine heroism, and there is real humanity here. Not an easy read, because it is composed largely of daily logs, and not in the form of an adventure novel, but the slow pace accentuated by these catastrophes give a real sense of just how torturous this expedition was.
  • Very worth reading.
    For the armchair traveler who becomes fully immersed in their reading, this book will take you to the Antarctic to experience, in detail, the heartbreak, determination, hope, despair, and sheer determination of men who survived in and returned from a hopeless place - not because they didn't give up, but because they never all gave up at the same time, they had strong intelligent leaders, and they worked together even when they did not entirely agree with, or like each other.
    Full of interesting true details too of how an expedition was formed, and ships were procured, provisioned and staffed before we had such things as freeze-dried foods, refrigerators, steel, antibiotics, .... all the stuff that simply did not exist in the early 1900s.
    Anyone heading into desolate polar regions on a vacation excursion today owes it to themselves to read this fascinating book, before you go.
    You'll have a much better appreciation that you are going there with very high assurances of returning whole, healthy and on schedule, having seen (and endlessly photographed) some of the wonders of that savage world in the comfort of warm dry clothes, on well-planned landings from a ship where you are well fed, and sleep warm & safe at night.
  • Enough has been said about the story to make any further comment redunday. That said, Shackleton's style is one for the reader. His narrative is engaging and he never bogs down in scientific gobbledegook. It is simply the recounting of an expedition gone disastrously wrong. He doesn't embellish nor does he wallow. Things are bad enough without having to make them seem worse and the bravery his leadership inspired needs no exaggeration.
    The expedition was in several parts, Shackleton's being just one, and each had their tales of woe. The reader that complained about being bored at the end is just missing the point.
    The edition is virtually typo free and very much recommended. The lessons learned are used today in managerial circles. It's incredible to think that we are learning things now that were known about so long ago.
    Leaders like this are a rare breed and stories like this are rarer still. Wonderful, thrilling reading and for the princely sum of nothing at all, how can you go wrong?
    As a thought, the diagrams and pictures would have been a nice addition to this book but I did see on the Windows 8 version a list of maps and illustrations. Maybe that's for PC only but I'm not complaining.
    Now to read about Scott.
  • I probably would have given 3 stars had I not already read "Endurance". This exposition by Shackleton himself is not nearly as "gripping" as it is more in the way of a relatively dispassionate diary/journal. It does serve to flesh out some areas of "Endurance" as well as add some details of the expedition not in "Endurance".
  • The first hand story of an amazing survival story based on Shackleton's memory and journals (his and others). I actually found it helpful to read both this book and the one by Alfred Lansing - "EnduranceShackleton's Incredible Voyage" to get a complete picture. Lansing includes much more detail from the other participants' journals as well as personal interviews with some of the survivors. But, to get the first hand account of one who was actually there this book by Shackleton is wonderful.
  • The whole Shackleton saga reminds me of Apollo 13. The goal of the mission itself "failed", but in spite of "impossible" circumstances the teams
    returned home safely!
    In Shackleton's account, it seems minimalist in comparison to some other more extensive biographies of the topic. This opinion applies to this reading. I have the regular hard copy of "South", which appears much larger but have not yet compared the two. This I don't know if the version is abbreviated. For one thing, there are no photos or maps in the version. With this type of event, I like to have maps to refer to. Nonetheless it was nice to add this to my collection of Antarctic/Arctic exploration readings.

  • Based on my personal experience, work with therapists, and a lot of research the author ignores the '1000 pound elephant' in the room. If you begin taking these very healthy, life affirming steps there is an excellent chance the Narcissist will discard you. I'm not as sure about Borderlines, but with my narcissistic husband, when I refused to be "enmeshed," and attempted to do things that were important to me and set boundaries he left. Perhaps I should say "good riddance" but it was a brutal shock, especially the way he left. He came home one day, packed up a U-haul and drove away. To this day, almost a year later, I don't know where he is. Before he drove off his chief complaints could have been lifted verbatim from this book. We didn't think as one. I was selfish. I didn't take his needs seriously. I didn't drop everything to talk when he needed it and he said things like, "I've been upset for a long time and you haven't even noticed." He got his revenge by discarding me. Again, in my experience and opinion, it is virtually impossible to follow the advice in this book-which you nevertheless should follow-and stay in relationship with a Narcissist because they won't allow it. The author REALLY needs to spend more time addressing Narcissistic discard because it is a very real risk and if you've been a Caretaker for a long time as I have you're not prepared for it.
  • Having been raised in a family with a borderline/narcissist mother, and an enabling father, I have been in denial most of my life about how dysfunctional our life was. This book has forced my eyes open in a way that 7 years with my therapist could not do. Granted, as a recovering Caretaker, I was ready to hear the whole truth about how dysfunctional I had become and how much work is ahead of me to fix myself and not the other people in my life, but this book got into every nook and cranny of dysfunction and called it what it was. I am shocked at all the connections I never made and dismayed at how much I still need to change but I am going to do the hard work ahead. Dysfunction has affected at least 4 generations, I want the buck to stop with me so my kids have a better role model.
  • If anyone has hurt you emotionally, physically or mentally on a continued basis and you're trying to decide whether to leave or not, then this book is for you. If you have left an abusive person, then this book is for you. If you have or had controlling parents, boyfriend, girlfriends or boss, then this book is for you. This book could also be helpful if you are or have been involved with an alcoholic or addict. The author does an excellent job at the describing these abusive people, how to let go of them and how to rebuild your life.

    A bonus is that the author clearly defines what to look for in a healthy relationship. The following is my summary, but the author's ideas.

    A real relationship is based on each person giving the other approximately the same amount of energy as the other receives. Whether this energy is in the form of attention, invitations, gifts, advice, help, or understanding does not matter. This is called reciprocity.

    A healthy relationship is

    * One that is nurturing to one another,
    * Fulfills the relational needs of each person and
    * Attends to the interests and desires of each other.

    In addition, a healthy relationship

    * Does not drain the other, but gives the other energy,
    * Helps each other feel relaxed and
    * Makes the other feel wanted and cared for.
  • I have read many books on this subject as I was in a codependent relationship with the subject matter.

    This is the only book that described to me what was happening to ME, due to my relationship with a mental ill man. Bottom line, I was becoming "disabled" I finally had the strength and clearness of mind to tell him to hit the road. I refused to be treated rudely anymore. Refuse to be embarrassed anymore. I had lost myself d/t his constant mentally battering of me. No one deserves this type of treatment. . . but when you are in it, it's so hard to break out of it. This book gives you the steps you need to get a handle on yourself and realize the damage you are letting the Borderline Personality Disordered/ Narcissistic do to your psyche. Stop walking on egg shells. Your life doesn't have to be this way. You can't fix them. . . but you can rescue yourself, from total destruction of your personality, self esteem and raise your self confidence. . . lose your depression. . . and win yourself back. The person is gone from my life now, but I am still going to finish the book. I was becoming disabled, by staying with him. At last, I can have my own opinion, without being yelled at, outings ruined, and him driving away yelling Kiss my ---! because i didn't agree with something trivial.
  • After reading a couple other books about borderline and narcissist personality disorders, I thought I was beginning to understand. But this book felt completely eye opening, with a lot of at times uncomfortable insights into my own personality as someone who attracted and enabled for decades a BP/NP. Be prepared to take a good critical look at yourself and maybe begin the work to change. Could be a life altering read.
  • I'm a psychotherapist who uses this book to help people emerge from these troubled relationships. It's ery helpful for people who have made the decision to part ways with a borderline or narcissistic partner and need to understand their part in the dynamic. "Stop Walking on Eggshells" is a better match for family members or people who choose or need to survive an ongoing connection of this sort.

Could “UFOs” and “Aliens” simply be us, but from the future?
This provocative new book cautiously examines the premise that extraterrestrials may instead be our distant human descendants, using the anthropological tool of time travel to visit and study us in their own hominin evolutionary past. Dr. Michael P. Masters, a professor of biological anthropology specializing in human evolutionary anatomy, archaeology, and biomedicine, explores how the persistence of long-term biological and cultural trends in human evolution may ultimately result in us becoming the ones piloting these disc-shaped craft, which are likely the very devices that allow our future progeny to venture backward across the landscape of time. Moreover, these extratempestrials are ubiquitously described as bipedal, large-brained, hairless, human-like beings, who communicate with us in our own languages, and who possess technology advanced beyond, but clearly built upon, our own.
These accounts, coupled with a thorough understanding of the past and modern human condition, point to the continuation of established biological and cultural trends here on Earth, long into the distant human future.

PDF Identified Flying Objects A Multidisciplinary Scientific Approach to the UFO Phenomenon Dr Michael P Masters Books


"It’s no surprise that I was disappointed in this book.

Masters seems like a smart guy who doesn’t use common sense (or modern physics) to explain his theory of “inter-temporal interaction”.

Despite claiming a “multi-disciplinary approach” in solving UFOs, Masters doesn’t use any references to known (and current) scientific information. He relies only on his anthropological education (and belief in scientific naturalism) to explain his theory. This he often supplements with out-dated and cherry-picked data points well outside current scientific thought.

Masters demonstrates little to zero knowledge of quantum physics and modern time travel theories by current scientific notables including ones open to such ideas.

He also jumps all over the map when trying to rationalize his approach. Masters uses a myriad of conflicting responses and opposing viewpoints to weave together his conclusions.

For example, he states that “human craniums are getting bigger” — as in bigger brains like those of supposed aliens — when all of modern science tells us human brains are actually shrinking. This is referenced everywhere and is quite easy to find.

He goes on to state his theory is based on having observed the physical similarities between chimpanzees and the alien gray, yet even evolutionary science clearly points out that we did not “evolve” from the chimpanzee.

It’s as if someone without much knowledge in horticulture concluded that because an apple is red and somewhat round with a stem on the top then clearly it must be a direct descendant of the tomato!

Masters also concludes that UFO occupants “must come from earth” because of their “language mastery, nuclear war concerns, and warnings about our environment”.

Really?

As others have pointed out, even contactees from decades ago claimed such nonsense, and that’s nothing new.

Masters also says he’s a “skeptic” and doesn’t rely on abduction data to make his conclusions, but then goes on to reference abductions that point toward his conclusions.

Bewildering.

Masters points out that “UFOs operate covertly” when in truth they aren’t really covert at all. If they were, there would be no UFO phenomenon to observe!

As we know, UFO’s typically have flashing lights, lighted domes, and highly polished metallic surfaces — basically possessing all manner of things that make them deliberately visible to observers . It’s as if the occupants wanted to convey a specific message — “Hey look at us, were here!”. This is in direct conflict with Masters’ statements.

Logically, if you were to return to a time period in earth’s history to gather information you would likely return as just an observer — a silent and unseen observer — much in the way that zoologists study various species in their own habitat. And yet UFOs don’t really do this.

He also claims that abductions are an expected form of biomedical research to gather paleontological or linguistic information on past human species. But this doesn’t jive well with the typical alien message about coming from other planetary systems. Perhaps Masters has concluded these future humans are simply “lying” to cover their true nature.

From our own cultural research, we know that sociological information isn’t complied by abducting a person from their home in the middle of night and stripping them naked to probe their genitalia. That’s not how it’s done.

If really seeking this information, why wouldn’t these time travelers simply go to a library, hack government servers, steal medical records, or obtain medical, scientific, and cultural artifacts to study us?

If they really wanted reproductive material to supplement a genetically weak human species, they could easily steal ova and sperm from clinical banks instead of abducting people in the middle of the night. And yet they don’t.

No, it seems to me that Dr. Masters’ has posited conclusions that are not only far fetched but poorly researched, lacking in both scientific fact and a common sense approach."

  • I recommend reading this book 110%. I myself have had many questions regarding the UFO phenomenon and after reading this book, it has opened up a whole different idea regarding this phenomenon. Dr. Masters theory about UFOS/aliens was very well written and supported with experiences/evidence. I will not release any spoilers because this book is a must read. I promise you won’t regret reading this book.

    Thank you for such a good book Dr. Masters. Look forward to you writing more.

  • Great read/understandable for all! Riveting evidence based content and examples. Scientific nonfiction! "Extratempestrials"~our own distant descendants coming back through time to study us!! Compelling...Must read!
    Reading on . Earlier formatting glitch has been fixed, it all looks great...see pic
  • Having "read them all" over the past 40 years in the pursuit of answers to my own questions, Dr. Masters' book, IDENTIFIED FLYING OBJECTS, is truly top-tier in its approach and insight into to subject of the origin of UFOs and their accompanying personnel. A clean, clear and satisfying read for the novice as well as those experienced in the genre.

    Thank you and congratulations Dr. Masters on a job well done.

  • the content is fascinating but the typesetting is unreadable. words overlap only half a page displays on the ECHO.
    i want to refund this kindle book and see if i can get a print version. don't buy the ebook!!
  • The format makes this unreadable on the .
  • I highly recommend this book because it is clear and well organized. It has about 300 pages and there is evidence for everything he talked about in his theory and has pictures for clarification.
    I recommend buying the book, not the ebook.

He relies only on his anthropological education (and belief in scientific naturalism) to explain his theory. This he often supplements with out-dated and cherry-picked data points well outside current scientific thought.

    Masters demonstrates little to zero knowledge of quantum physics and modern time travel theories by current scientific notables including ones open to such ideas.

    He also jumps all over the map when trying to rationalize his approach. Masters uses a myriad of conflicting responses and opposing viewpoints to weave together his conclusions.

    For example, he states that “human craniums are getting bigger” — as in bigger brains like those of supposed aliens — when all of modern science tells us human brains are actually shrinking. This is referenced everywhere and is quite easy to find.

    He goes on to state his theory is based on having observed the physical similarities between chimpanzees and the alien gray, yet even evolutionary science clearly points out that we did not “evolve” from the chimpanzee.

    It’s as if someone without much knowledge in horticulture concluded that because an apple is red and somewhat round with a stem on the top then clearly it must be a direct descendant of the tomato!

    Masters also concludes that UFO occupants “must come from earth” because of their “language mastery, nuclear war concerns, and warnings about our environment”.

    Really?

    As others have pointed out, even contactees from decades ago claimed such nonsense, and that’s nothing new.

    Masters also says he’s a “skeptic” and doesn’t rely on abduction data to make his conclusions, but then goes on to reference abductions that point toward his conclusions.

    Bewildering.

    Masters points out that “UFOs operate covertly” when in truth they aren’t really covert at all. If they were, there would be no UFO phenomenon to observe!

    As we know, UFO’s typically have flashing lights, lighted domes, and highly polished metallic surfaces — basically possessing all manner of things that make them deliberately visible to observers . It’s as if the occupants wanted to convey a specific message — “Hey look at us, were here!”. This is in direct conflict with Masters’ statements.

    Logically, if you were to return to a time period in earth’s history to gather information you would likely return as just an observer — a silent and unseen observer — much in the way that zoologists study various species in their own habitat. And yet UFOs don’t really do this.

    He also claims that abductions are an expected form of biomedical research to gather paleontological or linguistic information on past human species. But this doesn’t jive well with the typical alien message about coming from other planetary systems. Perhaps Masters has concluded these future humans are simply “lying” to cover their true nature.

    From our own cultural research, we know that sociological information isn’t complied by abducting a person from their home in the middle of night and stripping them naked to probe their genitalia. That’s not how it’s done.

    If really seeking this information, why wouldn’t these time travelers simply go to a library, hack government servers, steal medical records, or obtain medical, scientific, and cultural artifacts to study us?

    If they really wanted reproductive material to supplement a genetically weak human species, they could easily steal ova and sperm from clinical banks instead of abducting people in the middle of the night. And yet they don’t.

    No, it seems to me that Dr. Masters’ has posited conclusions that are not only far fetched but poorly researched, lacking in both scientific fact and a common sense approach.

Working eBook Robert A Caro Reviews


  • Robert Caro possesses phenomenal stamina. Perseverance. And -- perhaps most startling -- astounding patience. His message in this book If you want to write something worthwhile, something that will last through the ages, something that will have impact, then don't hurry the process.
    He devotes years to researching a volume, and even then, after all the traveling and interviewing and staying in nasty hotels and eating road food is all done, even then he remains a patient man. Before he starts to write, he creates three or so paragraphs that provide the foundation for the volume. These careful, succinct 'graphs contain the entire focus of a book that may end up being 700, 800 pages long. And yet the 'graphs must be tight and well thought out. He writes these words over and over and over again until he is satisfied, a process which requires weeks and maybe even months of thinking.
    Only then is he ready to try to begin to produce the book itself.
    Most volumes in the how-to-write genre are pretty useless. This one has the potential to change your writing life.
  • Robert Caro might well go down in history as the greatest American biographer of all time. Through two monumental biographies, one of Robert Moses – perhaps the most powerful man in New York City’s history – and the other an epic multivolume treatment of the life and times of Lyndon Johnson – perhaps the president who wielded the greatest political power of any in American history – Caro has illuminated what power and especially political power is all about, and the lengths men will go to acquire and hold on to it. Part deep psychological profiles, part grand portraits of their times, Caro has made the men and the places and times indelible. His treatment of individuals, while as complete as any that can be found, is in some sense only a lens through which one understands the world at large, but because he is such an uncontested master of his trade, he makes the man indistinguishable from the time and place, so that understanding Robert Moses through “The Power Broker” effectively means understanding New York City in the first half of the 20th century, and understanding Lyndon Johnson through “The Years of Lyndon Johnson” effectively means understanding America in the mid 20th century.

    By drawing up this grand landscape, Caro has become one of the most obsessive and exhaustive non-fiction writers of all time, going to great lengths to acquire the most minute details about his subject, whether it’s tracking down every individual connected with a specific topic or interviewing them or spending six days a week in the archives. He worked for seven years on the Moses biography, and has worked an incredible forty-five years on the years of Lyndon Johnson. At 83 his fans are worried, and they are imploring him to finish the fifth and last volume as soon as possible. But Caro shows no sign of slowing down.

    In “Working”, Caro takes the reader behind the scenes of some of his most important research, but this is not an autobiography – he helpfully informs us that that long book is coming soon (and anyone who has read Caro would know just how long it will be). He describes being overwhelmed by the 45 million documents in the LBJ library and the almost equal number in the New York Public Library, and obsessively combing through them every day from 9 AM to 6 PM cross-referencing memos, letters, government reports, phone call transcripts, the dreariest and most exciting written material and every kind of formal and informal piece of papers with individuals who he would then call or visit to interview.

    But he also talks about the sheer excitement and pleasure he encountered, thinking of the countless mysteries hidden in the LBJ archive, or using the Allen Room at the NYPL for his research. Anyone who has done any kind of archival research will know the feeling of approaching old documents with a feeling of mystery and excitement and great expectations about what one would find in them. The pillar of strength standing beside Caro has been his wife Ina, and she has accompanied him to the archives, hunted down documents, and softened up the women of the Texas Hill Country for her husband to interview. She may not have co-written his books, but she is in every way his co-researcher. Robert and Ina mortgaged their house to pay for the research for the Moses biography, and he tells us how, after the biography was finally published, Ina told him that they could finally afford to do dry cleaning again. This is a man who has turned the process of research and writing into a world-class ultra-marathon unlike any before.

    The scope emerging from all that research is stunning – Caro interviewed 522 people for the Moses biography and thousands for the LBJ books. Many of these individuals were very reluctant to talk and had to be cajoled through many visits, some like Lady Bird Johnson abruptly stopped talking to him, and others like LBJ’s press secretary Bill Moyers have never agreed to talk to him. Along the way he offers some clever advice for interviewing; for instance he attests to how important the art of listening and letting the other person speak is, and says that the George Smiley character from John Le Carre’s books used a technique in which he would polish his glasses with his necktie to fill pauses and silences during his interviews; Caro’s tactic is to look down at his notepad and write “SU” for “Shut Up” until the other person speaks.

    This quality was tested well when he interviewed Lady Bird Johnson and she suddenly launched into a surprisingly candid narrative on one of LBJ’s mistresses. And it was tested when he interviewed Margaret and Robert Brown who were bullied and threatened with death when trying to register as African-American voters in Eufala, Alabama in the early 60s. Many of these interviews will be familiar to those who have read Caro’s works, because they form the basis of some of the most riveting stories in his narratives. The writing itself is, if not exactly a breeze, an easy affair after all that painstaking, exhausting research, and Caro still does all of his on a Smith Corona Electra 2010 after making drafts in longhand on paper. He has fourteen of them just to make sure he has enough, and worries that three of them are breaking down; he orders cotton spools from a Pittsburgh specialty shop and types “black and heavy”.

    Perhaps the most poignant account of an interview in the book is when he spoke to Sam Houston, LBJ’s brother, about the terrible arguments and shouting matches LBJ and his father Sam Ealy Johnson used to have at the dinner table when the boys were young. Sam Johnson had been a proud state senator who knew everyone in town, but he lost most of his money through a foolish decision to pay an extravagant amount of money to buy back the Johnson family ranch, money he could never recover because of bad investing decisions. After that Sam Johnson became an object of mockery and pity, and Lyndon couldn’t stand that; all through his life he was haunted by not wanting to be poor and not wanting to be an object of mockery, and these feelings go a long way in explaining his obsessive need to gain power and to dominate other men. Caro wanted to capture exactly what those arguments between Lyndon and his father were like down to the last detail, and for this he decided to secure permission from the National Park Service to sit with Sam inside a replica of the Johnson family living room in Johnson City, Texas. After disappearing in the background, he waited and watched as Sam Houston lost himself in the grip of memory “I can still see the scene – see the little, stunted, crippled man sitting at that long plank table, see the shadows in the room, see myself, not wanting to move lest I break the spell, sitting there with my notebook against the wall saying, “Tell me those wonderful stories again.”

    His obsession with detail was legendary. He woke up at 5 AM for a few days and trotted out to Capitol Hill in Washington to get a sense of how hopeful Johnson must have felt when treading the same path while starting his political career in 1932 and working 18 hours a day to make his name known. And he talks about deciding to actually live in the Hill Country of Texas where Johnson grew up to get people there who knew Johnson to open up to him; he and Ina lived there for the most part of three years. He slept in a sleeping bag in the rural Hill Country to get a sense of how lonely and scared LBJ’s mother must have felt at night, with the lights out, when Johnson Sr. was away on legislative business. And, encouraged by an old woman in the Hill Country who asked him whether he, a city boy, knew anything about how hard life in her young days was, he performed the backbreaking work of drawing heavy buckets of water from wells, washing clothes in vats and moving them from one vat to another himself to get an idea of how arduous life in the then unelectrified Texas Hill Country was in the 1930s, and how indebted the residents were when Congressman Lyndon Johnson brought them the gift of electricity. After speaking with the Hill Country’s old women about the trials and tribulations of childbirth and that backbreaking domestic work, Ina was just furious with all those John Wayne Westerns which portrayed the frontier as belonging to gun slinging cowboys, with the women as props in the background; in truth the frontier belonged as much to the women she spoke to, the ones who suffered pineal tears during childbirth and had to haul buckets of waters up the hill and cook and clean with primitive implements. And just as the middle class-bred Caro was shocked by the tales of poverty in the Hill Country, so does he recount being shocked by the poverty and filth in New York City tenements whose residents Robert Moses relocated cruelly for his grand engineering projects to transform the New York City skyline. Or by the farmer whose field could have been saved had Moses moved a planned expressway by about 400 feet.

    A man with boundless energy and passion, Robert Caro will not stop until he drops. At 83 he says he has the same energy that he had twenty years ago, and still spends five days a week from 9 AM to 5 AM in the Austin archives and in his New York office. Every day he wears a suit and tie and walks to his office in Columbus Circle; the suit and tie impose a sense of discipline on him that he has maintained without flagging for more than forty-five years. Because he is a rather private man who prefers working and writing to talking, this book is as close as we can get to understanding his work ethic, his research philosophy and his thought process. That is, until we get to read his thousand-plus page autobiography, and hear those wonderful stories again. Carry on, Mr. Caro.
  • So many historians simply regurgitate the facts they have learned in their research and call it good. Perhaps that’s one of the reasons people find history boring. It’s unfortunate, really, because history is the biggest soap opera of all time.

    Mr Caro understands that history is not just facts thrown on a page “Rhythm matters. Mood matters. Sense of place matters. All these things we talk about with novels, yet I feel that for history and biography to accomplish what they should accomplish, they have to pay as much attention to these devices as novels do.“

    I’ve not yet read any of Caro’s biographies, but Working has given me a new appreciation for his writing process. Working gives me a greater appreciation for his books, which I will read in the very near future.
  • I am a longtime Caro fan, having devoured all of his books; I wait hopefully for his final volume on Johnson. In the meantime, "Working" is a great read, giving insight into how he meticulously goes about the business of great writing. You also get a glimmer of who Caro himself is, while we await his full autobiography. The book is written in an informal, conversational way, giving the reader the feeling he sitting in the living room with Mr. Caro, the master storyteller, and listening raptly much as Caro himself listened to Robert Moses.
  • Then read it.
  • Although much of this is not new, it is at least something to savor while waiting for the final volume of LBJ. A series of interviews and articles from Caro about his thoughts and processes, this book provides additional insight and understanding of how Caro has created his masterpieces and why they take so long to produce.
  • "Truth takes time." – a memorable line from WORKING – the memoir of Robert A. Caro who has two Pulitzer prizes under his belt, including one for his work on THE YEARS OF LYNDON JOHNSON. Caro shares his methods of researching, interviewing, and his writing methods that aim to achieve a "sense of place." The memoir goes behind the scenes of some of his most memorable interviews. His interview with Lyndon Johnson's brother Sam Houston Johnson – alone with him at suppertime in the Boyhood Home in Johnson City after the staff had closed this tourist site and gone home for the day (a place where I once worked), with Caro sitting behind Sam at the dining table taking notes and almost hypnotically leading Sam back in time to relive painful family discussions is bone chilling.

Welcome to Bell Cove, North Carolina.

Independence Day may have just passed in this small Outer Banks town known for its famous bells, but one ex-Navy SEAL has a declaration of his own to make . . .

Merrill Good knows there are many different kinds of exciting. There’s the adrenaline rush he experienced during his years in the military. There’s the thrill of starting up his own treasure hunting company. But topping them all is the surge of exhilaration he feels every time Delilah Jones crosses his path. Smart, voluptuous, and outspoken, Delilah is a bombshell with a secret that could explode at any moment.

Since Delilah moved to Bell Cove to take over her great-uncle’s Elvis-themed diner and motel, the locals have been nothing but friendly. And that’s a problem. The moment someone gets close enough to figure out her ex-con past, her future will be jeopardized. But keeping Merrill at arm’s length isn’t easy when the rest of her body has other ideas.

Add to the mix Delilah’s little girl who fashions herself “Little Orphan Annie,” a former showgirl grandmother with a gambling problem, a whole town full of quirky matchmakers, and there’ll be fireworks long after the Fourth of July . . .

From award-winning journalist Andrew Smith, the never before told story of the late 1990s dot-com bubble, its tumultuous crash, and the rise and fall of the visionary pioneer at its epicenter.

One morning in February 2001, internet entrepreneur Josh Harris woke to certain knowledge that he was about to lose everything. The man Time magazine called “The Warhol of the Web” was now reduced to the role of helpless spectator as his personal fortune dwindled from 85 million dollars, to 50 million, to nothing, all in the space of a week.

Harris had been New York’s first net millionaire, a maverick genius so preternaturally adapted to the fluid virtualities of the new online world that he saw it with a clarity almost no one else did. He founded the city’s first dotcom, Pseudo.com, and paved the way for a cadre of net-savvy twentysomethings to follow, riding a wave of tech euphoria to unimagined wealth and fame for five years, before losing it all in the great dotcom crash of 2000, in which Web 1.0 was wiped from the face of the earth. Long before then, however, Harris’s view of where the web would take us had darkened, and he began a series of lurid social experiments aimed at illustrating his worst fear that the internet would soon alter the very fabric of society—cognitive, social, political, and otherwise.

In Totally Wired, award-winning author and journalist Andrew Smith seeks to unravel the opaque and mysterious episodes of the twentieth century dotcom craze, in which the seeds of our current reality were sown. Drawing on in-depth interviews with Harris and the former pioneers who worked alongside him in downtown Manhattan's "Silicon Alley," the narrative moves from a compound in the wild south of Ethiopia, through New York, San Francisco, Las Vegas, London and Salt Lake City, Utah; from the dawn of the web to the present, taking in the rise of retro-truth, troll society, the unexpected origins of the net itself, as our world has grown uncannily to resemble the one Harris predicted—and had urged us to evade.

PDF Totally Wired The Rise and Fall of Josh Harris and The Great Dotcom Swindle eBook Andrew Smith


"I'm really torn about how to review this book. On the one hand, it offers an incredibly valuable look back at the 90's dotcom boom times, an era that deserves much more attention than it receives. On the other hand, a lot of the most valuable analysis comes only after a quixotic first-person quest to locate and understand the unknowable -- the enigmatic founder of Psuedo, Josh Harris. To me, the book suffers from the same thing that Pseudo did: an excellent premise that ultimately gets sidetracked by an obsession with celebrity/fame. Ultimately whether Harris is telling the truth or not, or whether he is a genius, or whether he is an artist, is irrelevant in my mind. Harris isn't the point. Those of use who watched and engaged with Pseudo were part of something bigger than one person, until it suddenly disappeared forever. I finished the book having a lot more questions about the Pseudo community itself, and how the Internet has lost so much of what initially made it such an exciting, unpredictable place. I thank the author for prompting me to ask these questions myself, but I would have also loved to focus more on why Pseudo mattered rather than deciphering exactly what had transpired in those crazy, early Internet years."

    It's bit boring at the beginning unless you are interested in the character he talks about, then it starts with facts, name and fascinating stories of less known name of the dotcom time.
    I liked the style of writing and the book kept my attention till the last page.
    Recommended!
    Many thanks to Grove Atlantic and Netgalley for this ARC, all opinions are mine.
  • I'm really torn about how to review this book. On the one hand, it offers an incredibly valuable look back at the 90's dotcom boom times, an era that deserves much more attention than it receives. On the other hand, a lot of the most valuable analysis comes only after a quixotic first-person quest to locate and understand the unknowable -- the enigmatic founder of Psuedo, Josh Harris. To me, the book suffers from the same thing that Pseudo did an excellent premise that ultimately gets sidetracked by an obsession with celebrity/fame. Ultimately whether Harris is telling the truth or not, or whether he is a genius, or whether he is an artist, is irrelevant in my mind. Harris isn't the point. Those of use who watched and engaged with Pseudo were part of something bigger than one person, until it suddenly disappeared forever. I finished the book having a lot more questions about the Pseudo community itself, and how the Internet has lost so much of what initially made it such an exciting, unpredictable place. I thank the author for prompting me to ask these questions myself, but I would have also loved to focus more on why Pseudo mattered rather than deciphering exactly what had transpired in those crazy, early Internet years.
  • Moondust is one of my favourite reads of all time, so when I heard there was a new book out by Andrew Smith I bought it - and it's just so nice to be in the company of this author again.

    Without giving too much of the game away, Smith takes us on a journey that starts in London, then swerves abruptly to Ethiopia, then on to New York, then off to Utah... anywhere that he can find JOSH.

    It's a wild ride as he tries to track down one of the strangest characters our modern world has created.

    Like I say, I don't want to give too much of the game away... but the person he's after is Josh Harris. An oddball, possibly autistic, geekus who ruled the party-scene of nineties New York, much as Warhol had a generation earlier. His early experiments in `living in public' (his term) prefigure Big Brother, Facebook and any other `social media' invasion you can think of.

    I couldn't believe I hadn't heard of this guy. But more than that, I couldn't believe that I had forgotten a time when this didn't exist. For the first time in years I stopped and thought about the first time I had used the internet and when that was. I suddenly realized how much the world has changed.

    `May you live in interesting times'.

    The gift of this book is to remind us that we do. Smith charts the history of the dotcom boom-bust-reboom and offers us a space to think about its implications

    I wouldn't say that at the end of the book I had answers to these questions. But I had, at least, started to think about it - and when you do think about it, it is amazing.

    You may not be of a like-mind to me, but if you are, in chapter 20 you will find out something about (*)ankers shenanigans - and how they financed the dotcom `bust' - that throws yet more perspective on the times in which we live.
