Описание: The razor-sharp account of a notorious murder
The 1924 murder of fourteen-year-old Bobby Franks by Nathan Leopold and Richard Loeb shocked the nation. One hundred years later, the killing and its aftermath still reverberate through popular culture and the history of American crime.
Hal Higdon’s true crime classic offers an unprecedented examination of the case. Higdon details Leopold and Loeb’s journey from privilege and promise to the planning and execution of their monstrous vision of the perfect crime. Drawing on secret testimony, Higdon follows the police investigation through the pair’s confessions of guilt and recreates the sensational hearing where Clarence Darrow, the nation’s most famous attorney, saved the pair from the death penalty.
In-depth and definitive, Leopold and Loeb tells the dramatic story of a notorious crime and its long afterlife in the American imagination.

Описание: The early career of Don Prudhomme is captured in this spine-tingling account of the 1973 Nationals at Indianapolis Raceway Park. Master writer Hal Higdon spent the race weekend shadowing Prudhomme during a race that was the turning point in The Snake's dominating Funny Car racing career. Higdon captured the weekend drama minute-by-minute as Snake fights for a chance to make history. Along the way, Higdon delves into Prudhomme's history as a racer, giving the reader insight into how Don Prudhomme became a household name in the early 1970s. The account includes Prudhomme's relationship with Tom "Mongoose" McEwen--the infamous Snake versus Mongoose rivalry that made both men's careers. Higdon takes the readers behind the wheel, into the pits and back along the hard road where years of planning and training reach their climax for a driver within a space of seconds.

Описание:
Being a Little Person has many challenges, but for one small boy, all he needs is help from his family and a very special doctor. Charlie's Blue Boots helps children understand that Little People can overcome difficulties and find happiness just by being themselves. All it takes is a little adjustment.
What should you do when everything seems to be shifting and you can't find solid ground? Some try to pretend the shifting things are truly solid. Some cling to things that cannot provide security.
In this practical book, author and pastor Ronald Higdon suggests we find the really stable things and learn to handle and grow from the things that must change. He brings to this process a lifetime of experience and deep theological reflection. The result is a practical survival guide to living a faithful life in a changing world.
Some of the topics he addresses include continuing to learn throughout our lives, relationships, the manipulation of our lives by anger and fear, the reality of evil, and yes, the fact that change is inevitable no matter how hard we fight it.
Each chapter includes questions for further study and thought, making the book suitable for use in group study as well as for individual reading.
Finding Stability in Uncertain Times will be useful to all those who are struggling in their Christian walk. Who can say that they are living without any struggle?

Описание: For more than 30 years has been a raconteur, provocateur, and relentless contrarian. He is a record-holding long-distance rider, both unabashed promoter and red-eyed critic of BMW Motorrad, award-winning motorcycle-rights advocate and voice of the Iron Butt Association. His writing has earned him a unique place among the legends of motorcycle journalism. The Higdon Chronicles, collated from various sources over the past three decades, represents his best work. A self-described "recovering attorney," these days he migrates between Maryland and Florida, depending on where the better riding weather is currently found.
