1950s - A Decade of Serial Killers: The Most Evil Serial Killers of the 1950s (American Serial Killer Antology by Decade) by Jack Smith (107 Reviews)    Price verified 51 minutes ago

Discover the most wicked serial killers of the 1950s, one of the worst decades of true crime and heinous serial murderers America and the World have ever known. Download FREE with Kindle Unlimited Most of us remember the 1950s as a time that was more innocent and carefree -- but memories can often be deceiving. Although the fifties probably isn't the first that decade comes to mind when serial killers are mentioned, it had its fair share, including particularly ghoulish ones such as Edward Gein. One reason that the serial killers of the 1950s aren't better known is that many of them committed crimes that were simply too horrible for the news media of the day to touch with a ten-foot pole. Unlike today, when all manner of mayhem makes the front page and the nightly news, the fifties featured a high degree of censorship. The sordid story of Harvey Glatman, for example, who brutalized women and took obscene photos of them both before and after he killed them, just couldn't be ...

As you delve into the stories in these pages, I hope they transport you to the mountain, where you find yourself peering down into a crevasse, standing on the edge of a crater, captivated by a butterfly dancing on the breeze, and awestruck by ...

Mike Tyson: The Boxing Legend Revealed by Cha Bowman (14 Reviews)    Price verified 10 hours ago

Who is Mike Tyson? Love him or hate him, Mike Tyson is a legend. He propelled boxing to new heights during his reign as the heavy weight champ in the 1980's and early 1990's. Along with courting success inside the ring however, he courted just as much controversy outside of it. He was born into a poor family in one of the roughest sections of the Bronx, to an unstable mother and increasingly uncertain conditions. Mike Tyson was seemingly dealt a bad hand from the very beginning, and due to his short stature and his high pitched voice, he was the constant target of bullies. It was all the bullies, and other demons in his life that led Tyson to box. He then rose up through the boxing ranks like the ultimate gladiator, until he made it clear that this former target of bullies was not going to be bullied anymore! But like some tragic hero from antiquity, Tyson often proved to be his own Achilles heel, and his out of control behavior would be his own downfall. Sure, he was ...

The Newborn King: How the Christ of Christmas is Still the Good News of Great Joy (Bible Character Adventures) by S.R. Buckel (1 Review)    Price verified 11 hours ago

Nothing lifts our spirits and brings us peace, as does hearing the good news of great joy, which is for all people -- and that is the miraculous birth of our Savior.

Kings and wise men seeking and worshipping the newborn Babe. God wrapped in human flesh! Everyone involved rejoicing exceedingly at the hearing of it!
