He was the wildest mover and shaker of the rock-and-roll era. Here is the story of "The Killer" Jerry Lee Lewis as told by his child bride Myra. From drug abuse to Bible-quoting Lewis was on a roller-coaster through love success and life! Jerry Lee Lewis September 29 1935 - October 28 2022 was an American pianist singer and songwriter. Nicknamed "The Killer" he was described as "rock 'n' roll's first great wild man". A pioneer of rock 'n' roll and rockabilly music Lewis made his first recordings in 1952 at Cosimo Matassa's J&M Studio in New Orleans Louisiana and early recordings in 1956 at Sun Records in Memphis Tennessee. "Crazy Arms" sold 300000 copies in the Southern United States but it was his 1957 hit "Whole Lotta Shakin' Goin' On" that shot Lewis to worldwide fame. He followed this with the major hits "Great Balls of Fire" "Breathless" and "High School Confidential". Myra Gale Lewis Williams née Brown; born July 11 1944 is an American author best known for her controversial marriage at the age of 13 to rock and roll musician Jerry Lee Lewis who was her first cousin once removed and was 22 at the time. She co-wrote the book Great Balls of Fire: The Uncensored Story of Jerry Lee Lewis 1982 which was adapted into the film Great Balls of Fire! 1989. In 2016 she published her memoir The Spark That Survived. Murray M. Silver Jr. is an American rock music writer photographer a lawyer promoted rock concerts in Atlanta bringing many future groups to the city. Derived from a Kirkus review: There's a bizarre blur of viewpoints in this detailed biography of rock-a-billy superstar Lewis: the co-author is much-abused ex-wife Myra who has found spiritual salvation; the narration however is all in the breathless third-person of fan magazines; oddest of all Jerry himself seems to have cooperated more or less on the project--as have many family members. So as the book follows the wild gifted piano-player from Natchez clubs through early-1950s teenage marriages to Sun Records in Memphis Jerry is sometimes a boorish Sinner sometimes a beleaguered Superhero sometimes just a regular mixed-up guy. About Jerry's music there is awe. And the primary focus not surprisingly comes to rest on: Jerry's courtship of his 13-year-old cousin Myra a secret rape victim the scandal that broke when this child-bride marriage was revealed; Jerry's fall from superstardom; and the deterioration of the Jerry/Myra marriage--especially after his slow country-crossover comeback the drowning death of their first child and Jerry's failure to do right by God. A strange subjective memoir-cum-biography then but fervently loyal fans especially those who share Myra's born-again beliefs will find this a generous mix of domestic woes music-biz wrangles and emotional/spiritual stewings.

This is one of the earlist attempts during the 'second wave' of the Women's Movement to assemble a collection of the seminal works that had come before. From Wikipedia: Women's rights are the rights and entitlements claimed for women and girls worldwide. They formed the basis for the women's rights movement in the 19th century and the feminist movements during the 20th and 21st centuries. In some countries these rights are institutionalized or supported by law local custom and behavior whereas in others they are ignored and suppressed. They differ from broader notions of human rights through claims of an inherent historical and traditional bias against the exercise of rights by women and girls in favor of men and boys. Issues commonly associated with notions of women's rights include the right to bodily integrity and autonomy to be free from sexual violence to vote to hold public office to enter into legal contracts to have equal rights in family law to work to fair wages or equal pay to have reproductive rights to own property and to education. Bibliography as a discipline is traditionally the academic study of books as physical cultural objects; in this sense it is also known as bibliology. English author and bibliographer John Carter describes bibliography as a word having two senses: one a list of books for further study or of works consulted by an author or enumerative bibliography; the other one applicable for collectors is "the study of books as physical objects" and "the systematic description of books as objects" or descriptive bibliography. Bibliography is a specialized aspect of library science or library and information science LIS and documentation science. It was established by a Belgian named Paul Otlet 1868-1944 who was the founder of the field of documentation as a branch of the information sciences who wrote about "the science of bibliography." The quantitative study of bibliographies is known as bibliometrics which is today an influential subfield in LIS and is used for major collection decisions. The Scarecrow Press, Inc hardcover

The author a lawyer and former General Counsel at the CIA provides a close-up look at the little-known story of Berlin's Jewish Hospital the only Jewish institution in Germany to survive the Holocaust drawing on the accounts of survivors to describe daily life in the hospital under the Nazis the machinations of hospital director Dr. Lustig the medical staff and patients and the hospital's liberation by Soviet troops in 1945. When Nazism was finally destroyed and Berlin liberated in April 1945 the only surviving Jewish institution was a smallish hospital which also served as a prison and housed a Gestapo branch office. In an amazing feat of research Daniel Silver has reconstructed this story of heroism and cowardice of loyalty and betrayal and retraced the fate of the individual survivors. It is a judicious and eminently readable account and a notable contribution to the last days of the last remnant of German Jewry. This compassionate study of the working of a Jewish institution in the grip of the Gestapo is told from the inside through unpublished memoirs and stories rescued by oral history. Like Victor Klemperer's diaries it lends three dimensions to the lives of Nazism's victims and presents a variety of personalities in breathtaking accounts of daily risk intrigue and survival. In 1945 when the Red Army liberated Berlin they found in the Nazi capital a functioning Jewish hospital. In Refuge in Hell Daniel B. Silver explores the many quirks of fortune and history that made the hospital's survival possible. His engrossing account of this little-known slice of history "reads like a novel imbued with the richness of a strong narrative and the depth of compelling characters" Forward. Not since Schindler's List has there been such a wrenching story of personal sacrifice and triumph. Silver's narrative centers on the intricate machinations of the hospital's director Dr. Lustig a German-born Jew who managed to keep the Gestapo at bay throughout the war in part because of his power over his staff and patients and his finely honed relationship with the infamous Adolf Eichmann. Derived from a Publishers Weekly article: Silver tells the astonishing story of Berlin's Jewish Hospital during WWII. For decades before the Nazis seized power in Germany the hospital had served Berlin's Jews as their principal medical resource. At the war's end it was still functioning delivering what medical care it could and sheltering a large percentage of the city's few remaining Jews. Silver asks how a Jewish institution located in the capital city of a regime dedicated above all to obliterating the Jews could possibly have survived. To answer this question Silver has gathered the available documentary evidence and interviewed the handful of hospital staffers still alive. According to these sources the institution's survival hinged on an amalgam of factors including sheer blind luck and bureaucratic infighting among Nazi organizations. As Silver explains the Nazis' bizarre system for classifying persons of partly Jewish ancestry played a role as well since some hospital personnel with mixed ancestry were not treated with the same implacable hostility as full Jews were. Silver acknowledges where gaps in the evidence make certainty impossible as in assessing Dr. Walter Lustig the hospital's chief during the war years. Lustig may have been a betrayer and collaborator as some staffers think or he may have manipulated the system as best he could to save at least some Jews from destruction. The balanced analysis of Dr. Lustig's record typifies the author's careful use of evidence throughout this absorbing book. Houghton Mifflin Company hardcover
