In this book there are 20 short stories, 2 pieces of flash fiction and an article on writing short fiction. This is the first time these have been published as a collection. Each item has been previously published in the UK, either in a print magazine or online. The rule I have set myself is simple: - unless an editor has chosen something I have written for their own publication - it won't appear in one of my collections. The stories in these pages include many characters with their own quirky ways. They either did things - or things happened to them - that are worth telling you about.

Through a blend of social and media history, the author explores America's transition from a production-oriented society to a culture of consumption. Because of Dana's strong aversion to the consumerism that accompanied industrial capitalism, the Sun became both the conscience and the advocate for New York's working class. In the words of Joseph Pulitzer, Dana transformed the Sun into "the most piquant, entertaining, and without exception, the best newspaper in the world."
