Born Erik Weisz in Budapest in 1874, Houdini grew up an impoverished Jewish immigrant in the Midwest and became world-famous thanks to talent, industry, and ferocious determination. Nobody knows how Houdini performed some of his dazzling, death-defying tricks, and nobody knows, finally, why he felt compelled to punish and imprison himself over and over again. Tracking the restless Houdini's wide-ranging exploits, acclaimed biographer Adam Begley tells the story of a mystifying man's astonishing career.

I am a 61-year-old Christian man of God, a husband, a father, a grandfather, and a brother. My name is Donnie “Donskie” Bolena, and I have spent over forty years in the school of hard knocks—a university where the tuition is paid in pain, regret, and near-death experiences. For most of those years, I thought I was simply living life to the fullest. I didn't realize that I was actually engaging in a raging battle that was slowly stealing my mind, my soul, and my life.

Captain Madness: Living The Life Of Riley is a take-no-prisoners memoir—a blisteringly honest, laugh-out-loud, soul-searching account of Edwin Riley, a man who rejected the dung heap of conformity in favor of something far more real: living. At its core, this book is both a guide and a challenge: Dare to be yourself—not what others expect, mold, or demand you to be. Driven by a life force stifled by society, Riley breaks loose from the scripted roles of culture, academia, and even identity itself.

In June 1942, 750 German soldiers surrounded a cathedral in Prague. Inside, seven young paratroopers were barricaded in a stone crypt.

The Third Reich wanted them alive. They would not be taken alive.

My life to date has been an ongoing transformational process. Sharing of my life at this time is with the hope that you may also recognize that your life is one of constant transformation, in which you can minimize the “pain” of the experience. It is said that we all have at least one “bestselling” book inside of us, however we must purify our mind, body, and spirit to bring it forth. I have been blessed to have had many teachers and wise Elders throughout my life who enabled me to learn more from the school of wisdom rather than from the school of hard knocks.
