"Almost no one thought Joe Biden could make it back to the White House--not Donald Trump, not the two dozen Democratic rivals who sought to take down a weak front-runner, not the mega-donors and key endorsers who feared he could not beat Bernie Sanders, not even Barack Obama. The story of Biden's cathartic victory in the 2020 election is the story of a Democratic Party at odds with itself, torn between the single-minded goal of removing Donald Trump and the push for a bold progressive agenda that threatened to alienate as many voters as it drew"-- Amazon.com

I did not set out to write a travel book. Instead I started, many years ago, to blog daily idiocentric observations to a small dedicated group of online readers while travelling the equivalent of 100 times around the globe on business and at leisure.Over time it became apparent that losing my luggage was going to be a major feature of my travels occurring more than 30 times to date, so I have taken a keen interest in recent developments to reduce this irritating inconvenience with the use of radio frequency technology.A selection of consolidated daily travel blogs has been put together as the basis of this publication, written in rough and ready format while on the road, commenting on the comic, the absurd, the thought-provoking and the downright surprising aspects of exploring the ways of the world in more than 130 countries around the world.

A lost literary gem of Hollywood in the 1930s, I Lost My Girlish Laughter is a thinly veiled send-up of the actors, producers, writers, and directors of the Golden Age of the studio system. Madge Lawrence, fresh from New York City, lands a job as the personal secretary to the powerful Hollywood producer Sidney Brand (based on the legendary David O. Selznick). In a series of letters home, Western Union telegrams, office memos, Hollywood gossip newspaper items, and personal journal entries, we get served up the inside scoop on all the shenanigans, romances, backroom deals, and betrayals that go into making a movie. The action revolves around the production of Brand's latest blockbuster, meant to be a star vehicle to introduce his new European bombshell (the real-life Marlene Dietrich). Nevermind that the actress can't act, Brands' negotiations with MGM to get Clark Gable to play the male lead are getting nowhere, and the Broadway play he's bought for the screenplay is reworked so that it is unrecognizable to its author. In this delicious satire of the film business, one is never very far from the truth of what makes Hollywood tick and why we all love it.

The book explores the current status of Jewish believers in the UK church, highlighting their unique challenges and experiences. Through interviews with Jewish church members and leaders, it reveals that the church often presents a hostile environment for Jewish identity, contrasting with other diaspora communities that maintain their traditions. The author argues that there is significant pressure for Jewish believers to assimilate, leading to a loss of their cultural heritage, and suggests that the church's approach can render their identity as believers problematic or even unacceptable.
