The modern history of Africa was, until very recently, written on behalf of the indigenous races by the white man, who had forcefully entered the continent during a particularly hubristic and dynamic phase of European history. In 1884, Prince Otto von Bismarck, the German chancellor, brought the plenipotentiaries of all major powers of Europe together, to deal with Africa's colonization in such a manner as to avoid provocation of war. This event - known as the Berlin Conference of 1884-1885 - galvanized a phenomenon that came to be known as the Scramble for Africa.

In Ten Hail Marys, Kate Howarth vividly recalls the first seventeen years of her life in Sydney's slums, suburbs and rural New South Wales, Australia. Abandoned by her mother as a baby, and then by her volatile grandmother. Kate was 14 when she was sent to live with a neighbour, who barely tolerated her. Kate was taken out of school three days before she was scheduled to take the exams for the Intermediate Certificate, the minimum education required to obtain meaningful employment. At 15, everything and everyone Kate called family and home was gone.

He was crowned in gold and buried under a toilet. And in between, the world called him God. Haile Selassie ruled Ethiopia for over four decades — a modernizing monarch who stood toe-to-toe with Mussolini, walked out of exile like a prophet, and became the spiritual messiah of an entire global movement. To some, he was Africa’s last true emperor. To others, he was Jah Himself. From the smoke-filled hills of Jamaica to the lyrics of Bob Marley, The Lion of Judah lived on — not just as a man, but as a myth. This is the story of power, prophecy, betrayal, and rebirth. Crowned by men.

One of my dad’s favorite jokes about getting older was: “I went out for coffee when I was twenty-one and when I got back I was fifty-eight!” I get what he meant now. Time flies. My first book, If Chins Could Kill: Confessions of a "B" Movie Actor, was published back in 2001 and it chronicles the adventures of a “mid-grade, kind of hammy actor" (my words), cutting his teeth on exploitation movies far removed from mainstream Hollywood. This next book, an “Act II” if you will, could be considered my “maturing years” in show business, when I began to say “no” more often and gravitated toward self-generated material. Taking stock in the overall quality of my life, I fled Los Angeles and moved to a remote part of Oregon to renew, regroup and reload. If that sounds tame, the journey from Evil Dead to Spider-Man to Burn Notice was long, with plenty of adventures/mishaps along the way. I never pictured myself hovering above Baghdad in a Blackhawk helicopter, facing a pack of wild dogs in Bulgaria, or playing an aging Elvis Presley with cancer on his penis - how can you predict this stuff? The sheer lunacy of show business is part of the fun for me and I hope you'll come along for the ride.

Hail to the Dragon Slayer is Arthur A. "Buddy" Lemann's memoir of a life of criminal law practice in New Orleans, America's most unique city. Buddy was born in Donaldsonville, LA, the scion of a sugar plantation family.

The last ruler of the House of Solomon, Haile Selassie, was not only the final Emperor of Ethiopia but also the link to a bygone past. In the days of Haile Selassie, absolute rule was given as an unquestioned divine right. Even though Selassie in many ways was a moderate progressive, he was still an autocratic ruler.
