Pat O'Brien was a skinny South Dakota kid with long hair, a rock and roll band, divorced parents and an alcoholic father. In all the familiar ways, he was on the road to nowhere until a professor, who envisioned his future as the household name he would soon become, dramatically changed his life.
From that day forward Pat's life took turns that were both spectacular and destructive: from the Huntley-Brinkley Report and afternoons at Bobby Kennedy's living room with Muhammad Ali to conversations with six Presidents. He did acid with Timothy Leary, drank with Mickey Mantle, and over the course of a remarkable career up close and personal with the Beatles, The Stones, The Kennedy's, Magic Johnson, Michael Jordan, Tiger Woods and virtually every star in Hollywood. 
In I'LL BE BACK RIGHT AFTER THIS, Pat reveals the highs and lows of the life of a radio and TV broadcaster, spent sharing the mic with the world's rich and famous while battling an infamous public scandal and demons that nearly killed him. With laughter, tears and miracles he reveals how he learned to accept his mistakes, find redemption and become the father he never had, proving there really are second and even third acts in life.

Why should politicians get to do all the lying? Yes, sports fans can spin, especially with a little help from Pat O'Brien, a guy who can convincingly expound on any game, even if he doesn't know the rules. It's not that O'Brien isn't up to speed--he's a veritable encyclopedia of sports lore--it's just that even he gets cornered sometimes and needs to get out fast. What if a fan asks about that big trade between the Maple Leafs and the Canucks? Instead of saying "Huh?" you can sound erudite: "You know, the great thing about hockey is that it's always changing." What do you do when the office smart aleck starts blathering about that Monday Night Football game you couldn't bear to watch? Blindside him: "That was nothing compared to the fourth-quarter drive the Jets ran in 1967 against Oakland--remember?" Hilarious, irreverent, and packed with downright useful ammunition for picking up a date or picking a fight--and perfect for anyone who wants to shoot it like one of the pros--Talkin' Sports is for every sports fan who wants to win the battle of the bull.

ONCE a common feature of most small towns and settlements, the village mill has all but disappeared over the past hundred years or so. Increased mechanisation, economies of scale and the advent of such things as bakery bread and international conglomerate millers has caused the decline of many mills around the country. Many have been converted to houses, some have been allowed to decay and collapse, others have been put to other commercial uses but many have now gone and the village and townscapes of Britain have changed forever as a result. Some of these mills have been extant since medieval times and some are even recorded in the Domesday Book.Covering the counties of Norfolk, Suffolk, Cambridgeshire, Lincolnshire and Essex this is a unique record of some of those mills. Many of the illustrations have come from antique picture postcards which are, in themselves, a unique record of bygone times. They show mills of all sizes and all types but what most have in common is that they are no longer used for their intended purpose.Watermills of East Anglia is a unique photographic record of our towns and villages and of what was once often the major industry in each settlement. The illustrations within will appeal to locals and industrial historians alike.
