The Billionaire's Butler: Mystery, Murder and Romance in the Wacky World of the Super Rich
Andrew Arthur Williams
Createspace Independent Publishing Platform
2013
nidottu
Step out of your ordinary life and into the glamorous world of the superrich, where luxury, leisure, and excess can be found around every exquisitely decorated corner, and so too can betrayal, secrecy, and deception. From within the home of an incredibly wealthy, prominent family comes "The Billionaire's Butler," an entirely entertaining story of mystery and romance among society's finest, as told by a butler who serves them. Inspired by actual events and paralleling an Internet blog of the same title, it delivers a fictional insider's view of the wacky world of the superrich and tells tale of their outlandish behavior and mind-boggling, extravagant needs. The story follows butler Andrew Arthur Williams as he reviews his life in the billionaire's world following a murder attempt made against the family he works for. He lightheartedly describes each of the characters under suspicion and outlines the astonishing events leading up to the crime, and after it. Andrew also delivers a lot of gossipy, chatty information about how the rich really live and, ultimately, reminds us that, despite their wealth and power, rich people are subject to the same human frailties as the rest of us.
The Gangster's Butler

In a time before cable news and the Internet, people got their news from bold, tough-as-nails journalists. These brave souls would go to extraordinary lengths to get the truth to the public, often putting their lives at risk for a scoop. The Gangster's Butler is a memoir from a bona fide newspaperman, Howard Scott Williams. From 1948 to 1976, he covered some of the most incredible stories in Los Angeles and beyond. His subjects included Elizabeth Taylor, Marilyn Monroe, Robert F. Kennedy's assassin, and notorious gangster Mickey Cohen, for whom Williams posed as a butler in a particularly complex and fascinating story. Williams's stories are so amazing that you might not believe them if you read them in a newspaper, which may be why many of the details were never printed-until now. However, every story is true and presented with the dignity and sobriety befitting an honorable newspaperman. Whether you work in journalism, are interested in juicy stories of old Los Angeles, or just enjoy a good read, you'll find plenty to love in this insider's look at journalism during an extraordinary time in American history.

'Offers a new way of writing about religion and should serve as a model for future studies in modern British history. ' Literary Review'A crucial and compelling read' NATALIE COLLINS @GodLovesWomen 'The story of Josephine Butler is astonishing, shocking, inspiring, recounted here by a narrator who understands the very core of her subject. A powerful read.' CLAIRE GILBERT, author of I, Julian 'When Courage Calls allows us to hear Butler's message afresh at a time when women's value and safety is again at risk.' ALISON MILBANK, Professor of Literature and Theology, University of Nottingham'Remarkable' KRISH KANDIAH'This is an inspiring book written by an inspiring writer' RACHAEL TREWEEK, Bishop of Gloucester Millicent Fawcett, the leader of the British suffragist movement, described Josephine Butler as 'the most distinguished English woman of the nineteenth century'. Among the first feminist activists, Butler raised public awareness of the plight of destitute women, worked to address human trafficking and led a vigorous campaign to secure equal rights for women before the law. In her pursuit of justice, Butler did as much for women as William Wilberforce did for African slaves within the British Empire, and yet, while Wilberforce remains a household name, Butler is forgotten.Social historian Sarah C. Williams presents a re-examined biography of the radical political activist Josephine Butler. From the beauty of her childhood in Northumbria, to the stifling intellectual environment of mid-Victorian Oxford; from the impoverished streets of Liverpool and the brothels of London, Brussels and Paris, to the offices of Westminster and the Houses of Parliament. Butler's relentless drive to secure rights for women against the sexual double standard of her day captures a remarkable woman with deeply held values for equality.Underpinning Butler's public life of political activism lies the full corpus of her writing and the spirituality that grounded her activism. When Courage Calls offers a profound examination of Butler's inner life of prayer, defined by her radical sense of justice that was able to transform Victorian society. Such conviction offers us a taste of the possibility for our time and culture.This biography presents a fresh interpretation of the relationship between Josephine Butler's public leadership, her political activism and her spirituality.

Millicent Fawcett once described Josephine Butler as 'the most distinguished English woman of the nineteenth century'. Among the first feminist activists, Butler raised public awareness of the plight of destitute women, worked to address human trafficking and led a vigorous campaign to secure equal rights for women before the law. In her pursuit of justice, Butler did as much for women as William Wilberforce did for African slaves within the British Empire, and yet, while Wilberforce remains a household name, Butler is forgotten. Underpinning Butler's public life of political activism lies the full corpus of her writing and the spirituality that grounded her activism. When Courage Calls offers a profound examination of Butler's inner life of prayer, defined by her radical sense of justice that was able to transform Victorian society. Such conviction offers us a taste of what might be possible for our own time and culture.
