  In the whirlwind of early 20th-century Germany, Heinrich Himmler grapples with questions of masculinity and identity amidst a society in flux. Denied the opportunity to prove himself in war, Himmler is forced to confront his own biases when faced with the complexities of homosexuality. 
  Coming from a conservative background, Himmler's beliefs clash with the realization that masculinity can manifest in diverse ways, including within the LGBTQ+ community. As he ascends to power, his inner struggle reaches a climax with the notorious Bad Tölz speech of 1937, marking a dark chapter in Nazi history. 
  "Himmler's Secret Desire" delves deep into Himmler's journey, offering insights into Nazi attitudes towards gender and sexuality. It serves as a poignant reminder of the dangers of prejudice and the ongoing pursuit of acceptance and understanding.

  Sideman - In Pursuit of the Next

  While most successful sidemen are lucky to spend a decade in the music business, multi-instrumentalist Mark Rivera is working on his fifth. 
   
   
   
  Rivera has shared the stage with some of Rock 'n' Roll's greatest performers, including John Lennon, Paul McCartney, Elton John, Simon & Garfunkel, Foreigner, Peter Frampton, Tony Bennett, Sheila E., Joe Walsh, Hall & Oates, and Peter Gabriel. 
   
    
    
  How does he do it while avoiding the typical pitfalls—falling out of favor with the band, burnout, depression? 
   
   
    
  A devoted father and husband for nearly forty years, Rivera's recollections in Sideman demonstrate that while he struggled to balance the two worlds—a rock 'n' roller circling the globe and a regular guy worried about putting food on the table—his body's compulsion to always be playing music kept him in constant pursuit of "the next gig." 
   
     
    
  Full of optimism, humor, and candor, Rivera turns the spotlight on the sideman's life, revealing not only what it takes to climb the industry ladder (and stay there), but something more surprising: a bit of ourselves rocking out amongst all those superstars.

  Surviving Three Shermans - With...

  In 1943, eighteen-year-old Walter Stitt enlisted in the US Army, ready to serve his country. From his time in basic training at Fort Polk in Louisiana, throughout his time as a tank gunner in the 33rd Armored Regiment, to his post-injury service in England, he wrote home to the family he had left at home. 
   
   
   
  Unbeknown to him, his mother carefully numbered and saved the letters, treasuring them until her death. This book brings together the very different two versions of Walter's war: the version that a teenage soldier could reveal to his parents and younger siblings without scaring them or invoking the censor's pen, and the full and often terrifying details of serving as a tank loader and gunner in France, Belgium, and Germany, remembered so clearly eighty years later. Walter explains the forced omissions and partial truths his teenage self offered to comfort his family while he survived the destruction of three Sherman tanks, the death of three crew members, and two wounds. 
   
   
   
  Coming from West Virginia, Walter's Appalachian roots and values are apparent through the memories he held dear as a soldier and the values he clung to while fighting in one of the darkest periods of human history. His memoir recounts his experiences of serving during World War II while honoring those who served and made the ultimate sacrifice.

  The Hidden Face of Pope Francis

  Paul Ariès

  Why did Pope Francis canonize a priest responsible for the genocide of the Indians?
  Why does he wish to beatify the anti-Semitic French priest, Leon Dehon?  
  What are the unmentionable reasons for his papal election? 
  Pope Francis is presented as progressive and sensitive to the interests of the people, but underneath his smiles and his good words hides an authoritarian and dogmatic pope. This pope relies on very conservative movements such as Communion and Liberation or the Order of the Knights of Columbus, which are close to Opus Dei. 
  The good Pope Francis is beginning to drop his mask when he declares that Europe is undergoing a new Arab invasion (sic), when he calls on "Catholics with a sense of identity" to take to the streets, when he fights against republican secularism and demonizes atheists.
  After an overview of the financial, political and sexual scandals, Paul Ariès proceeds to a very detailed and documented analysis of the "Church of Francis," particularly in the areas of ecology and sexuality. This clear book offers a surprising insight into the best communicator the Church has known in a long time.
