  If you like your detectives hard-boiled then Sam Spade was your man.   
   
  Originally created by the legendary Dashiell Hammett, Sam Spade’s move from pulp-book thriller to airwave legend seemed an easy journey. 
   
  Sam Spade, played by Howard Duff, was a sharp-talking L. A. based private detective who’s first question usually revolved about how much moola, how much cash, you were carrying. If it was a phone call this was usually accompanied by a desk drawer opening and a liquor bottle being summoned for duty. 
   
  The owner of License number 137596, had a way of not telling the police all the news.  His humor was tongue in cheek and the plots could put a corkscrew to shame.  The characters who came into contact with Sam Spade, Detective were either very glad they had or rather wished they hadn’t.   
   
  If you wanted results in the tightest of corners you had one choice; Sam Spade, Detective.  Let’s see what he’s up to. 
   
  We like to think we always have choices.  Sometimes we only need one.   
   
  Let’s get back and into action with Sam Spade’s next adventure.

  A portrait of the renowned film director based on seven years of interviews: “I am very happy that this book exists.” —François Truffaut 
   
  Howard Hawks is often credited as the most versatile of the great American directors, having worked with equal ease in screwball comedies, westerns, gangster movies, musicals, and adventure films. He directed an impressive number of Hollywood’s greatest stars—including Humphrey Bogart, Cary Grant, John Wayne, Lauren Bacall, Rosalind Russell, and Marilyn Monroe—and some of his most celebrated films include Scarface, Bringing Up Baby, The Big Sleep, Red River, Gentlemen Prefer Blondes, and Rio Bravo. 
   
  Hawks on Hawks draws on interviews that author Joseph McBride conducted with the director over the course of seven years, giving rare insight into Hawks’s artistic philosophy, his relationships with the stars, and his position in an industry that was rapidly changing. In its new edition, this classic book is both an account of the film legend’s life and work and a guidebook on how to make movies. 
   
  “There are going to be many biographies of Howard Hawks, but they will all lean heavily on this book; the pioneer so honestly reveals himself and the people with whom he worked.” —Los Angeles Times

  Sheffield in the 1980s

  A visual portrait of a British city and its people fighting to survive an era of industrial decline, captured by a steelworker-turned-photographer. 
   
  The social, industrial, and economic changes imposed on the Sheffield area during the 1980s are captured with remarkable clarity in this volume featuring the work of steelworker-turned-photographer Martin Jenkinson. Like many northern England and Scottish cities during that decade, Sheffield went through troubled times, even as parts of southeast England, especially the City of London, boomed. The gap between north and south became a chasm. 
   
  Jenkinson photographed people in their everyday lives at work and at play. However, where he particularly excelled was his work with the trade union and labor movement, in workplaces and on protests, demonstrations, and pickets. Some of the images in this book capture joy and laughter; some portray suffering. They provide a loud cry for social justice, a better world where unemployment is no more, poverty is swept away, and everyone, black and white, male and female, can enjoy a life where their talents are used for the collective improvement of all. In reflecting on the not-so-distant past, Jenkinson’s photographs are about a world we still must aim to obtain.
