The Boys from North Dakota
by Robert Battistuzzi
It was prom night for the class of ‘65 in Wattinger, North Dakota. In just a few days the Road Demons, made up of Gerry, Randy, Art, and Bobby would be heading for the west coast to make big money as lumberjacks and leave a trail of broken hearts. This would be their last trip together before working towards their careers, perhaps moving to different cities. However, for Bobby, this trip is not a certainty. Things were much more simple for the others. He was the only one saving money for college and his strict father did not approve of the trip, especially with his friends whom he had felt were wasting their lives, spending too much money on their cars. Bobby was faced with the dilemma of trying to please his father, whose old fashioned ideals were in conflict with the American way of life, or going on this last trip with his friends. Would he show up with the others when it was time to leave? If he did go on the trip, what would happen if he returned with no money?

A Dog Called: Little Stay Awhile
And Other Tales by Judy White Ward
In 1988 we paid $40 for a little reddish brown puppy with a strange-looking ridge of hair down her backbone. She was half Labrador and half Rhodesian Ridgeback and we called her Tsin’tia which is a Comanche term meaning, roughly, Little Stay Awhile. For the next 15 years she was an integral and necessary part of our lives. We laughed and cried over her and shared our lives with her. We gave our hearts to her and she gave her whole life to us. This is her story. Turn the pages and live with her in Texas for a while. I hope you enjoy it even half as much as we enjoyed having Miss T in our lives.

Kick Start
Memories of an Outlaw Biker by Ralph "Teach" Elrod
1969, a time of rebellion. I joined the Barons MC. This is that story through the 1970’s, the men, the women, and the cops. We stopped the feds from blackmailing the states into requiring helmet laws. We surrounded the U.S. Capital Building two deep in Harleys and outlaws. How we did it. This is some of what I experienced and witnessed. Times were wild, fast and tough— so were we. I loved it! This is that true story.

FIZ
and some Theatre Giants by Eleanor Fazan
“Tell the truth,” her friend the director Lindsay Anderson urged Eleanor Fazan. “It’s seldom heard.” Nor is it easy to tell.
But that’s what “Fiz” has done: delivering frank and intimate accounts of her not-always-peaceful collaborations with the brilliant figures she has worked with over the decades – on stage in London’s West End, on screen, and in opera.
It’s an amazing line-up: among performers, from Jack Hulbert, Cicely Courtneidge and George Formby to Barry Humphries, Alec Guinness, Laurence Olivier; among directors, Tony Richardson, John Schlesinger, and Stephen Frears; among writers, John Osborne and the legendary Beyond the Fringe team – Alan Bennett, Peter Cook, Jonathan Miller, and Dudley Moore. Along the way we get musicians too: her husband Stanley Myers, composer of “Cavatina,” the haunting theme from The Deerhunter, and the god-like maestro Herbert von Karajan.
Fiz’s memoir offers a modest, frank, and often startlingly perceptive account of the delights and difficulties of working with some of the most brilliant – and utterly impossible – writers, directors, and performers of the last sixty years. Her true stories of professional relationships are funny, affectionate, sometimes searing; always enlightening about the agonies and ecstasies of what goes on behind the scenes.
