Do you watch movies on television or videocassette? If so, do you remember Richard Dreyfuss' travelling companion in Close Encounters of the Third Kind? Or Clint Eastwood's partner in Dirty Harry? How about Michael J. Fox's father in Back to the Future? Harrison Ford's Egyptian friend Sallah in Raiders of the Lost Ark? Chances are you remember them, but you might not know their names or recall other movies you've seen them in. The Players is a comprehensive photographic guide to 1,000 film actors and actresses whose movies are most likely to air on television or be available in video stores. They are supporting players and lesser-known stars but not household names. You may recognize their faces, but you might not be able to identify them. Robert Redford, Eddie Murphy and Jane Fonda are too well-known to be in this book. But what about Vincent Gardenia? Jack Weston? Melinda Dillon? Crispin Glover? All of the performers in this book have appeared frequently in feature films in principal roles during the last 30 years. Based on movies released since the 1960's, which make up the majority of those that appear on television or that we rent from the video store, The Players will help you identify actors with the ease of a film critic and give you a brief glimpse into their lives. You'll have the fun of instant recognition when you place the face with a name and a character. The Players is packed with large photographs, the actors' movie credits, the names of the characters they played and concise biographical sketches. An index of nearly 4,000 movie titles allows you to look up the movie you're watching and locate the actor. Along the with popcorn this book is an invaluable movieviewing companion. You'll never have to wonder again who an actor is or where you've seen him before.

In the summer of 1966, Peter Chapman was a naive 18-year-old from the Angel in north London. He was just about to enter the world of work, having flunked his A Levels and recently discovered that he would not be fulfilling his dream of becoming a professional footballer at Leyton Orient. As a young man on the brink of adulthood, he found himself in a country also on the brink of huge change--and about to have one of the most significant sporting successes in its history. 
Focused around England's one and only World Cup victory, Out of Time tells the story of that summer--both the football and the country's broader political, social, and economic picture--through Chapman's 18-year-old eyes, and offers a vivid and beautifully written portrait of what life was like in 1966.

On September 11, 1844, Henry Lehman arrived in New York City on a boat from Germany. Soon after, he moved to Montgomery, Alabama, where he and his brother Emanuel established a modest cotton brokering firm that would come to be called Lehman Brothers. On September 15, 2008, Dick Fuld, the last CEO of Lehman Brothers, filed for corporate bankruptcy amid one of the worst financial crises in American history. After 164 years, one of the largest and most respected investment banks in the world was gone, leaving everyone wondering, "How could this have happened?" Peter Chapman, an editor and writer for The Financial Times, answers this question by exploring the complete history of Lehman Brothers between those two historic Septembers. He takes us back to its early days as a cotton broker in Alabama, and then to its glory days as one of the leading corporate financiers in America. He also provides an intimate portrait of the people who ran Lehman over the decades-from Henry Lehman, the founder, to Bobbie Lehman, who led the company into the world of radio, motion pictures, and air travel in first part of the 20th century, to Dick Fuld, who allowed it to morph into a dealer of shoddy securities. Throughout his account of this imperiously rich firm, Chapman examines the impact Lehman Brothers had not only on American finance but also on American life. As a major backer of companies like Pan American Airlines, Macy's, and RKO, Lehman helped lead the country into major new industries and helped support some of its most intrepid entrepreneurs. He then shows how, starting in the 1980s, Lehman's increased focus on short-term gain investments led the firm down the dangerous path that would eventually lead to its demise. In the end, the story of Lehman Brothers is not only the story of a truly important American company but a cautionary tale of what happens when leaders lose sight of their core mission in their quest for something too good to be true.
