Forts and Forays: James A. Bennett: A Dragoon in New Mexico, 1850-1856 is a historical memoir written by James Augustus Bennett. The book chronicles Bennett's experiences as a dragoon in the United States Army stationed in the New Mexico Territory during the mid-19th century. The memoir provides a unique perspective on the conflicts between the United States Army and Native American tribes, including the Apache and Navajo. Bennett's firsthand accounts detail the daily life of a soldier in the New Mexico Territory, including the challenges of living in a harsh desert environment, the dangers of frontier warfare, and the complex relationships between soldiers and civilians. The book also explores the political and social climate of the time, including the tensions between the United States and Mexico, the impact of the California Gold Rush, and the growing divide between North and South in the lead-up to the Civil War. Forts and Forays is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of the American West, the United States Army, and the complex relationships between military forces and indigenous populations.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

Nothing Random: Bennett Cerf and the Publishing House He Built
The story of the legendary Random House founder, whose seemingly charmed life at the apogee of the American Century featured a front-row seat on history, an epic cast, and left an enduring cultural legacy At midcentury, everyone knew Bennett Cerf: witty, beloved, middle-aged panelist on What's My Line?, whom TV brought into America's homes each week. They didn't know the handsome, driven, paradoxical young man of the 1920s who'd vowed to become a great publisher, and a decade later, was. By then, he'd signed Eugene O'Neill, Gertrude Stein, William Faulkner, and had fought the landmark censorship case that gave Americans the freedom to read James Joyce's Ulysses. With his best friend and lifelong business partner Donald Klopfer, and other young Jewish entrepreneurs like the Knopfs and Simon & Schuster, Cerf remade the book business: what was published, and how. In 1925, he and Klopfer had bought the Modern Library and turned it into an institution, then founded Random House, which eventually became a home to Truman Capote, Ralph Ellison, Ayn Rand, Dr. Seuss, Toni Morrison, James Michener, and many more. Even before TV, Cerf was a bestselling author and columnist as well as publisher; the show super-charged his celebrity, bringing fame - but also criticism. A brilliant social networker and major influencer before such terms existed, he connected books-Broadway-TV-Hollywood-politics. A fervent democratizer, he published "high," "low," and wide, and from the roaring twenties to the swinging sixties collected an incredible array of friends, from George Gershwin to Frank Sinatra, having a fabulous time along the way. Using interviews with more than 200 individuals; deeply researched archival material; and letters from private collections not previously available, this book recalls Bennett Cerf to vibrant life, bringing booklovers into his world and time, finally giving a true American original his due.

A family story for the twenty-first century, based on the phenomenally popular Texts from Bennett Tumblr blog, this epistolary novel chronicles the year that Bennett and the rest of his freeloading family moved into his cousin Mac's household. Hardworking Kansas City rapper Mac Lethal has a problem, and its name is Bennett. His wannabe gangsta cousin is seventeen, uses drugs and foul language, claims to be 13 percent black, and swears he speaks "da female language." (Strangely that last one sort of seems true.) But as different as they are, when Bennett and his mom lose their home, Mac's got their backs. They're family after all. Sure, it takes patience to live with the eternally smoked-out Bennett and the pill-popped Aunt Lily, but he can handle it. You know who can't? Mac's very pretty, very WASPy, very uptight girlfriend. So as his once-peaceful household gets completely crazy, Mac learns that wanna-be-Crips are thicker than water, that his little cousin--flawed, irreverent, and basically a Saturday morning cartoon gone horribly wrong--has become his mentor, and that he really has no idea what's up with girls.

Are Angels dangerous? Detective Jennia Bennett never imagined that the sophisticated holographic simulations could possibly harm anyone. But now, as she delves deeper into her very first murder investigation, she is very much afraid that the answer to that question may be "Yes."A researcher claimed he found a fundamental flaw in the Angels, one that leads inevitably to madness and chaos. Now the man is dead, and his proof is missing. If he was right, millions of citizens who depend on the "sims" to keep the country running smoothly may be at risk. But powerful figures rely on the success of the Angel program to support their own ambitions, and they pressure Jen to close the case quickly. Jen enlists the help of her best friend Elise to locate the original Angel, Adam, who may hold the key to understanding the threat posed by the Angels. But Jen soon discovers that both Adam and Elise share a unique bond with the designer of the Angels. Dr. Arno Marchand is fiercely protective of his creations and denies that the Angels are flawed, but Jen senses that the reclusive scientist may not be quite what he appears.As the list of suspects grows, Jen must hurry to untangle the threads and uncover the truth about the Angels, before she herself becomes the killer's next victim.
