Expect No Help: The Life and Times of Jumpin’ Jack Flash Common Sense from an Uncommon Source
Price range: $3.99 through $26.99Someone didn’t like the radio station that was playing, so it got shot up.

Some girl painted the Stones’ big tongue on one of the walls. It took up the whole wall and she did a really good job. Rusty would stop in every now and then with his buddies. All of Johnny’s friends thought that Rusty was pretty cool, and he would take a look around and ask, “You guys gonna be alive tomorrow?”

Join Johnny and the crew, stealing hundreds of dollars’ worth of steel from old metal shops just to survive. Experience the anything-goes, vagrant lifestyle that defined the 1960s. Find out what it is to be yourself, even if you take a long way. The author reminds us of what it means to be American. Cesspool speaks from the heart, and it shows.

Pricing the Profitable Sale: The Manager’s Guide to Value Pricing
Price range: $7.99 through $26.99Pricing the Profitable Sale: The Manager’s Guide to Value Pricing represents a complete revision of a prior work entitled Pricing for Profit: The Manager’s Guide to Market Oriented Pricing. Like the earlier book, its purpose is to assist corporate managers in realizing the full potential available in the product or service price as a company’s primary revenue and profit generator. The book is a radical departure from standard texts in its practical and quantitative approach. Because of its heavy use of formulas, graphs, reference tables, and pricing rules and guidelines, it will appeal primarily to marketers with a background in the sciences or engineering and less so to individuals who prefer a less rigorous treatment of the subject. A special feature of the book is three chapters devoted to price optimization techniques for determining sell prices of products or services designed to achieve maximum sales revenues, market share, or profits for the firm. Numerous examples throughout the text demonstrate the use of the material presented. Pricing the Profitable Sale should also be of interest to academia. In a business school MBA program, it could serve either as the primary text in a course on pricing or, in an advanced marketing class, as a supplement to one of the standard marketing texts.
Peter Zell grew up in Stuttgart, Germany, and Oak Park, Illinois, where he attended high school. He holds a B.S. degree in electrical engineering from the University of Illinois. After two years of active duty with the U.S. Army Reserve, Mr. Zell was employed as an engineer by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration in Virginia. He subsequently left for New York City to study business administration earning an MBA degree from the Columbia Business School. There followed a successful career in marketing and sales management with diverse multinational companies, both stateside and abroad. Mr. Zell also holds a law degree and is a retired member of the Illinois State Bar Association. Since 2003, he has lived in retirement near Phoenix, Arizona.

Short Timer
Price range: $3.99 through $26.99Short-Timer is a small part of the history of the Vietnam War; America’s longest war where for the first time, men of every ethnic background and color fought together side by side in fully integrated units. It is the story of one individual’s survival in a war where flashing the peace sign was perfectly acceptable, while waving a clinched fist in the air, the Black Power symbol, was a court martial offense. At times, it’s a frightening account of how, during combat, men bonded as one to fight the enemy, while back at base camps, the realities of the sixties caught up with everyone and whites openly called blacks “nigger” while blacks angrily cursed “honkies”.
It is centered around one Marine’s experiences in the service during troubled times. The story follows the Marine from boot camp to his tour in Vietnam. It graphically illustrates the suffering and horrors that are a part of war and the sense of humor necessary for survival under such adverse conditions. The plight of innocent, little children who are far too often the biggest victims of war, is brought home all too clearly by the central character’s encounter with a Frenchman who runs an orphanage in Da Nang.
The reader is exposed to all the realities of combat in a crazy war that by 1970 had clearly begun to mean very little to those who served except surviving the war and returning to the “real world”. For the central character in Short-Timer, his tour is cut short by President Nixon’s Phase I Pull Out from Vietnam. The central character’s war experiences take on an added craziness when he is forced to commit one last, horrifying act of war just a few hours prior to his scheduled departure from Vietnam. It is apparent that the life of the central character and all those he served with will never be the same after having survived the Vietnam War.
Short-Timer blends all aspects of life in a memorable story, too authentic for comfort. It is sensitive, tough, gutsy, draws the reader in, makes them
expend emotion and doesn’t let go.

The generation that experienced World War Two is notorious for not speaking about what they saw and learned in that previously unimagined multilingual, multicultural environment. They just didn’t know how to describe their adventures to loved ones at home afterwards, so they chose silence instead.
