Until Now
Sleeping angels. Flower fairies Woodland nymphs and watermelon seeds. Anne Geddes's magical world is populated by hundreds of beautiful, chubby babies and gorgeous children dressed as peapods, pansies, peonies, and pearls. Geddes fans will be thrilled by Until Now, a lush, coffee-table-sized, 10-year retrospective of Geddes's work, including 1991's crowd-pleasing "Cabbage Kids," featured on calendars and coffee mugs everywhere, as well as many previously uncollected shots from Geddes's New Zealand studio. It's not all costumes, though--the 1997 portrait of Caleb, 3 weeks old, is a beautiful, unretouched close-up of the sweetly sleeping newborn, belly-button still poking out and skin peeling. A portrait only a mother could love? Hardly. Caleb's perfect little sleeping face would evoke maternal feelings from a stone. Particularly fun and often touching are Geddes's notes at the back of the book. For example, of "Rebecca," she writes, "How do you get a 14-month-old to sit still? Show her the jelly bean, and then put it down her trousers." The resulting photograph is of a lovely, mop-headed, tummy-grabbing toddler peering intently at her own navel. Incorporating both rich color and black-and-white photographs, Until Now will delight parents, grandparents, and baby-lovers of all sizes. --Rebecca A. Staffel.

Career Criminal: My Life in the Russian Mob | Until the Day I Died
Career Criminal, My Life in the Russian Mob | Until the Day I Died is a based on true events, tell-all memoir of a master lawbreaker and a world still heavily shrouded in mystery A first generation immigrant, I was born into the mafiya . I had no other way. Throughout my tenure as Bratan, I commanded a crew of dastardly villains that knew not virtue and for whom truth was always unclean . They were deadly as they were brilliant. In a series of complex schemes and manipulations, most involving the financial markets, we were able to bilk investors out of hundreds of millions. We went all out, as if we had nothing to live. Like as if you held guns to our kids. Murder was as ordinary as eating a Big-Mac sandwich. Career Criminal is a stylish exposé that takes you deep into the inner working and heavily guarded hierarchical structure of the Russian mafiya. I'm not referring to what you've already looked at on the telley. I take you deep within the framework of modern-day Russian organized crime and reveal for the first time, many of its closely protected secrets. Career Criminal isn't just the story of my life | It's the story of my death, rebirth, and an illuminating look at redemption and the afterlife. .

Until the Sea Shall Free Them: Life, Death, and Survival in the Merchant Marine (Blue Jacket Books) (Blue Jacket Books)
Robert Frump s Until the Sea Shall Free Them has an unusual setting: off the mouth of the Chesapeake Bay, in February 1983. There the merchant vessel Marine Electric, a coal carrier converted from a World War II-vintage Liberty ship, participated in the rescue of a fishing boat caught in a fierce storm, only to be herself overwhelmed by the raging sea. Though only 30 miles off the coast, the Marine Electric had no chance to survive, and heroic Coast Guard helicopter pilots and Navy rescue divers were barely able to save a handful of survivors. Frump, a former reporter for the Philadelphia Inquirer, meticulously reconstructs the sinking, along with the investigation and litigation that followed in its wake. In attempting to evade corporate liability for the sinking, the ship s owners put the blame on faulty loading and preparation for the storm by the former chief mate, Bob Cusick, who was one of the survivors. The corporation devoted immense resources to substantiating its claims, hiring marine salvage specialists for an exhaustive survey of the wreck, and naval architects to construct an elaborate theory of the accident. The theory soon began to unravel, however, due to the determination of then- Philadelphia Inquirer editor Gene Roberts, who decided to have his newspaper investigate the whole issue of marine safety and turned loose Frump and other reporters on the story. Frump s book recounts in some detail how the journalists penetrated layers of industry secrecy and the closed ranks of seamen fearing for their jobs to establish that old Liberty ships were virtual serial sinkers. In this page-turner, Frump starts from a single sinking to expose weaknesses in the entire system of maritime safety and sketchy reforms that ultimately took out of service many of the old unseaworthy Liberty ships. Washington Post book review by John Prados.
