Who says only girls can twirl and boys must take the lead on the dance floor? Celebrate same-gender ballroom dancing with renowned dancer Richard Lamberty as he breaks traditional gender roles, while promoting diversity and inclusivity in dance. When dancer Richard Lamberty was a child, he loved dancing--especially ballroom dancing. But he was always jealous of the moves female dancers got to do. Intrigued by the female dancers' different steps, Richard developed the skills to dance either role in order to compete with a male partner in the Gay Games in Europe. He then came back to the United States and cofounded April Follies, the longest-running and largest queer partner dance competition in North America. Richard Lamberty is a two-time world champion ballroom dancer whose story inspires the LGBTQIA+ community to put on their dance shoes and do what they love.

Earl Robinson, composer of "Joe Hill," "The House I Live In," "Black and White," The Lonesome Train, and Ballad for Americans, is a major figure in twentieth-century music. He was also one of the most affable and charming, full of honesty and a warm sense of humor. In this book, largely written by Robinson and completed by Eric Gordon after Robinson's death, one takes a musical tour of America that extends from union halls and left-wing political groups of the 1930s to Broadway, Hollywood, the urban folk revival, and the New Age ethos of the 1980s. Along the way, one meets scores of the famous and near-famous, but none is more engaging than Robinson himself. Gordon accurately describes him as "a naive believer in common decency whom cynicism had never touched."
"Captain Dunning, besides being the owner and commander of a South Sea whale-ship, was the owner of a large burly body, a pair of broad shoulders, a pair of immense red whiskers that met under his chin, a short, red little nose, a large firm mouth, and a pair of light-blue eyes, which, according to their owner's mood, could flash like those of a tiger or twinkle sweetly like the eyes of a laughing child. But his eyes seldom flashed; they more frequently twinkled, for the captain was the very soul of kindliness and good-humour. Yet he was abrupt and sharp in his manner, so that superficial observers sometimes said he was hasty. . ."
