Many readers are thrilled to immerse themselves in the tales of years gone by, concerning deeds they wished they could have done, but never did. When living in frigid Alaska, we submerged ourselves in almost any adventure that presented itself. The wild Arctic Alaska with its colder temps, thicker and more prevalent ice-fog, considerably larger moose, huge schools of lively salmon and seemingly unending miles of spacious tundra elicits a symphony of crisp adventures, unparalleled in any other state. They were presented to us on a platter. We didnt shy away. We attempted them with a near voracious appetite and claimed our fill. In fact, we went back for more; with gusto.

All aboard for a major mystery… Frank and Joe have been asked to judge the sleuthing skills of five teen detectives in a contest sponsored by Teenway magazine. Even cooler, the contest takes place on a Caribbean cruise ship! But it’s not long before suspicious pranks threaten to ruin the contest: one of the Teenway interns nearly falls overboard, the “mystery scene” the contestants studied gets tampered with, and someone may have poisoned the food! How can the Hardys solve this titanic mystery? With the help of five teen detectives, of course, along with their own expert investigating skills. But they’d better move fast, because a culprit lurks beneath the Caribbean sun—and it’s sink or swim for Frank and Joe.

An American historian, film specialist, and documentary filmmaker shares candid stories of his life in Russia during and after the Cold War. A captivating lifetime of personal and professional experiences by an American historian, film specialist, and documentary filmmaker in the Soviet Union and post-Soviet Russia. The author’s experiences as a radical in the turbulent 1960s, and his eventual disenchantment offer some precedents and perspectives to all those on the Left, Center, or Right interested in the fluctuations of American politics. The vivid log of hopes and disillusions is related in a candid, non-academic style, and set against a panorama of history and politics in the late twentieth century. “A self-described scholar-activist, Menashe weaves together political, intellectual, and cultural currents of leftist life, and draws a vivid picture of people and places, life-changing adventures, the intellectual and political challenges of graduate school during the Cold War, encounters with key Russian literary and political figures, and much more. Then comes the crash, the Soviet Union’s end. As in all failed love affairs, Menashe retains some sweet memories. The reader will taste them long after reading the memoir.” —Carole Turbin, Professor Emerita, History and Sociology, SUNY/Empire State College
