New Releases by Franz Lidz

Lidz takes a serendipitous journey around the world in search of golf''s real soul, visiting all the margins of that ancient and maddening game. Far removed from the usual golf magazine perspective, he finds unlikely heroes and wildly comical connections.

Examines the live of eccentric hoarders, brothers Homer and Langley Collyer, who lived in isolation and squalor in a Harlem brownstone for years before the discovery of Homer''s body in March 1947 and the search for his missing brother.

In a poignant and offbeat memoir, the author describes his coming of age in a world dominated by his father''s four eccentric brothers, whose zany presence transformed a lonely boy''s life

He preaches a dynamic message of African-American empowerment and hope at the same time he outrages mainstream America with fiery rhetoric against whites, Jews, and Catholics. Arthur J. Magida editorial director of JEWISH LIGHTS penetrates the rhetoric of Louis Farrakhan and chronicles his rise to power as a political leader and self-proclaimed prophet. Photos.
