Relativity
“Adams writes with equal parts wit and heart. He has that George Saunders knack to keep me giggling and flipping pages, and then suddenly, he sneaks up with visceral poignancy. This book is a blast.” —Joshua Mohr, author of Model Citizen “Relativity is a sharp, witty careening ride of a novel about three middle-aged men coming to terms with what they want—and don’t—from their lives. Insightful, compassionate, and compulsively readable.” —Stephanie Reents, author of The Kissing List Harry Erickson believes he’s disproven Einstein’s Theory of General Relativity. Dennis Drysdale is in love with a woman he knew from high school. Timothy Henderson wants to professionally pla...
Gone
The police bring Ben Adams in for questioning concerning the disappearance of Nancy Keene. Further investigation reveals that essentially every five years of the past 15 years Ben has been a suspect in the disappearance of a female. On January 18th 1994, Carol Sifford was reported missing after coming home with Ben from a high school dance. On January 18th 1999, Judy Haskell disappeared from her dorm after returning from a college fraternity party with Ben. Neither has ever been found. Chief Neuman believes that Ben is responsible for all three disappearances and sets out to convict him. The Chief is first surprised when Ben asks for his help to prove his innocence and then outraged when his daughter is reported missing after meeting Ben. Ben is arrested and in jail when he disappears. The FBI and CIA become involved. Not because of the disappearances but because of Bens work at Chemtrak where he has found a reaction by-product with some most unusual properties. They need Ben to join a team of U.S.- Russian scientists at Lake Vostok, Antarctica on a mission to preserve the current human time-line.

The 1912 Olympic Games
The 1912 Olympic Games held in Stockholm, Sweden, were the most "modern" Olympic Games yet celebrated and the most successful of the Modern Era to that date. Much of the success is credited to the influence of Viktor Balck, who is remembered as "The Father of Swedish Sports." The 1912 Olympics also featured new innovations and events. A semiautomatic electrical timing device and a photo-finish camera were used, and the decathlon and modern pentathalon were new events. This work, the sixth in a series on the early Olympics, provides unusually extensive information on the sites, dates, competitors, and nations of the Stockholm games. Results for each event, including cycling, diving, fencing, rowing and sculling, shooting, tennis, water polo, and yachting, among others, are provided.
Congress, Progressive Reform, and the New American State
Congress, Progressive Reform and the New American State uses a series of case-studies of reform legislation in Congress during the early twentieth century to explore the nature of progressivism and the processes of political change which resulted in the establishment of the modern American state. Among the topics covered are railroad regulation, labor relations, social policy of the District of Columbia, Republican insurgency, and the nature of Democratic progressivism. This work will be of interest to students of twentieth-century political history, the history of Congress, and the origins of the modern American state.
DeKalb County, Alabama, Marriage Index, 1836-1916
This new publication, which is extracted almost entirely from newspapers and archival sources in Scotland, follows the settlement of Scots west of the Mississippi River during the first hundred years after American Independence. Mr. Dobson's latest book identifies about 2,000 individuals who ventured to the West. While the entries vary considerably, virtually every one provides the name of the immigrant, a date (birth, arrival, marriage, death), the state or territory of his/her residence, and the source of the information. Some of the listings give the individual's occupation, the name of a parent(s) and/or spouse, place of residence in Scotland, or more.
