New York City and Harlem has produced several internationally known personalities and Gerald G. Money is certainly one of them. Gerald "G" Money was raised in the prestigous Esplanade Gardens Development. There as a youth, Mr. Money's family and neighbors recognized his many gifts, he excelled in sports, art and he also had an uncanny knack for comedy. Gerald told jokes that always left them laughing and he did impressions of famous celebrities splendidly. As a teenager, he began an impressive career as a stand-up comedian. His lists of accomplishments include television appearances, as well as live performances at top-notch clubs. It was during this time he started a long relationship with the world famous Apollo Theater as a performer and Master of Ceremony. Yet, as it was well known, life in Harlem for a young man can offer one of many choices and G Money swayed between the arts and the streets. Due to his artificial success, the streets seemed like the path to take. The lifestyles of G Money and his associates were so fascinating; they were depicted in the hit classic film: New Jack City(tm). But it was the streets that kept him wanting more. From Gangster to God, he realized that being a Drug Lord was not what God wanted for him. Eventually, Gerald G. Money got out of the drug game and became a man of God. Currently, he is helping people get jobs in the NYC area. G Money is the Author of his new book called "The Chronicles of the NEW JACK ERA"-The Official Autobiography of the Original Gerald G. Money". After many years of silence, here is his true story filled with a lot of heartache, pain and suffering. Gerald G. Money was offered every opportunity in life to become whatever he wanted to become but he chose the darkness and perils of the street life. He had it all then lost it all. This was the life and times of The New Jack Era...

“If a judgment were ever rendered on all the multi-million words I have spoken into microphones, I hope something like this could be said: ‘He [Huntley] had a great respect, almost an awe, of the medium in which he worked. He regarded it as a privilege, not a license.... Perhaps the best I might hope is that by some accident of voice tone or arrangement of words I did, on a few occasions, excite, exhort, annoy or provoke a few of my fellow human beings to think with their heads, not the viscera’”—Chet Huntley. This biography of NBC newsman Chet Huntley, who, along with David Brinkley, anchored NBC’s “Huntley-Brinkley Report,” covers his youth on a farm in Montana, his education and his graduation from the University of Washington, his development as a radio personality and news reporter for stations in Seattle, Spokane, Portland, and his work for CBS, ABC and NBC radio and television in Los Angeles from 1939 to 1955. It also details his move to New York and his work on the “Huntley-Brinkley Report” from 1956 to 1970, his retirement from the news business, his supervision of the development of the Big Sky Ski resort in Montana, and his death from cancer in 1974 at the age of 62.

The 1990s was the decade when Marvel Comics sold 8.1 million copies of an issue of the X-Men, saw its superstar creators form their own company, cloned Spider-Man, and went bankrupt. It was when Superman died, Batman had his back broken, and the runaway success of Neil Gaiman's Sandman led to DC Comics' Vertigo line of adult comic books. It was the decade of gimmicky covers, skimpy costumes, and mega-crossovers. But most of all, the 1990s was the decade when companies like Image, Valiant and Malibu published million-selling comic books before the industry experienced a shocking and rapid collapse! These are just a few of the events chronicled in this exhaustive, full-color hardcover.

Jack Churchill, archaeologist and dreamer, walks out of the mist and into Celtic Britain more than two thousand years before he was born, with no knowledge of how he got there. All Jack wants is to get home to his own time where the woman he loves waits for him. Finding his way to the timeless mystical Otherworld, the home of the gods, he plans to while away the days, the years, the millennia, until his own era rolls around again . . . but nothing is ever that simple. A great Evil waits in modern times and will do all in its power to stop Jack’s return. In a universe where time and space are meaningless, its tendrils stretch back through the years. Through Roman times, the Elizabethan age, Victoria’s reign, the Second World War, and the Swinging Sixties, the Evil sets its traps to destroy Jack. Mark Chadbourn gives us a high adventure of dazzling sword fights, passionate romance, and apocalyptic wars in the days leading up to Ragnarok, the End-Times: a breathtaking, surreal vision of twisting realities where nothing is quite what it seems.
