Altamont Augie
Altamont Augie is a startlingly vivid portrayal of one of the most colorful and turbulent periods in recent American history: the 1960s, as seen through the eyes of two ill-fated college lovers at odds over Vietnam. To David Noble, the faltering war in Vietnam is a failure of national honor; to Jackie Lundquist it is a failure of national conscience. But neither her rise to fame as the antiwar movement's alluring Radical Queen nor David's counter-protest activities can extinguish their passion for one another. Their love endures, even while fighting on opposite sides of the defining issue of their time.

The Spirit of Antoinette
A Gothic Horror Story
Michael Ramseur describes THE SPIRIT OF ANTOINETTE as "a Gothic horror story," but the truly frightening aspects are not the spirits which haunt the State Lunatic Hospital at Danvers, but the depictions of both the modern and the antiquated mental health industries. Psychiatric institutions of the 1920s and the 1980s are disturbingly similar. Though treatment methods may have changed, both are overtaxed and unable to care for those in their charge, despite their best efforts and desires. Ramseur draws on careful research, personal experience, and perhaps his own madness. The line between fiction and history is thin here, which may be this book's most chilling quality.
