New Releases by Jerry Lewis

Do you want to learn how to count it all joy, no matter the struggles, tests, and difficulties of life? Well, you can, through the Word of God and the peace of the Holy Spirit. I feel this book will offer and reveal practical use and common understanding through the application of scripture, coupled with the challenges of everyday life. Joy is one of the most important commodities and gifts that Jesus promised His people. This was one of the main reasons why I feel the Holy Spirit urged me to write this book. I felt so inspired and even mandated by the Holy Spirit to release the promise that joy is not limited by life''s inconsistencies, but that the true joy of the Lord will help you to accomplish incredible and great things for God, all while navigating and processing the responsibility of a very demanding life. The truth is, we all face various struggles that can push us to new limits that we never previously faced. The challenges of life can be very overwhelming at times, but counting it all joy can bring order to the chaos in our lives. Christians are not immune to feelings of frustrations. Sadly, it has seemingly become the new normal. But when you can count it all joy, it becomes a game changer. I pray this book will be as much a blessing to you as it was for me to write.

ALCATRAZ UNCHAINED is a provocative insight rarely captured as fi rsthand experiences are shared by three of ‘The Rock’s’ actual prisoners. Ride an emotional roller coaster from grim tales of despair to fond stories of antics, and then transition into a beautiful refl ection of life’s accounts for one little girl who fondly called the Island, “Home.” Explore the history of Alcatraz Island from a profoundly different perspective.

The Fading Voices of Alcatraz is a ten chapter work that focuses on the United States Federal Penitentiary era (1934-1963) of Alcatraz Island, San Francisco Bay, California. The complete history of Alcatraz Island includes such topics as early Native American, Spanish discovery, military fort, military prison, federal penitentiary, Indian occupation, and National Park. Each era is briefly explored, enhancing the rich story of the legendary island that is simply known as, ''The Rock.'' Shared accounts by the actual Correctional Officers and Prisoners is the trove of treasure to be discovered within the pages of this book. The tales are as inspiring and fascinating as the true historians who shared them. Historically compelling, The Fading Voices of Alcatraz is both educational and entertaining.

In a memoir by turns moving, tragic, and hilarious, Jerry Lewis recounts with crystal clarity every step of his fifty-year friendship with Dean Martin. They were the unlikeliest of pairs—a handsome crooner and a skinny monkey, an Italian from Steubenville, Ohio, and a Jew from Newark, N.J.. Before they teamed up, Dean Martin seemed destined for a mediocre career as a nightclub singer, and Jerry Lewis was dressing up as Carmen Miranda and miming records on stage. But the moment they got together, something clicked—something miraculous—and audiences saw it at once. Before long, they were as big as Elvis or the Beatles would be after them, creating hysteria wherever they went and grabbing an unprecedented hold over every entertainment outlet of the era: radio, television, movies, stage shows, and nightclubs. Martin and Lewis were a national craze, an American institution. The millions flowed in, seemingly without end—and then, on July 24, 1956, ten years after it all started, it ended suddenly. After that traumatic day, the two wouldn’t speak again for twenty years. And while both went on to forge triumphant individual careers—Martin as a movie and television star, recording artist, and nightclub luminary (and charter member of the Rat Pack); Lewis as the groundbreaking writer, producer, director, and star of a series of hugely successful movie comedies—their parting left a hole in the national psyche, as well as in each man’s heart. In Dean & Me, Lewis makes a convincing case for Martin as one of the great—and most underrated—comic talents of our era. But what comes across most powerfully in this definitive memoir is the depth of love Lewis felt for his partner, and which his partner felt for him: truly a love to last for all time.

Quel étrange duo : le séduisant crooner et le maigrichon, l''Italien de Steubenville, dans l''Ohio, et le juif de Newark, New Jersey. La première fois qu''ils montèrent sur scène ensemble, un miracle se produisit, et, en très peu de temps, Martin et Lewis devinrent aussi connus qu''Elvis ou les Beatles en leur temps, déclenchant l''hystérie sur leur passage. Mais, le 24 juillet 1956, dix ans après leur première rencontre, Martin et Lewis se séparent. Chacun mena par la suite une carrière solo triomphante ; mais leur séparation laisse à jamais un vide dans le cœur de chaque Américain. Dans ce livre, à la fois émouvant, tragique et drôle, Jerry Lewis raconte, sans langue de bois, une amitié de cinquante ans, depuis cette après-midi de printemps 1945 où les deux jeunes artistes se croisèrent au carrefour de Broadway et de la 54e Rue, jusqu''à leur dernière rencontre accidentelle au milieu des années 90. Mais ce qui transparaît surtout, c''est l''immense amour que Jerry Lewis portait et porte toujours à son partenaire, et que Martin éprouvait aussi : un amour véritable qui durera éternellement.

Everyone brings differing expectations and a variable capacity for compromising to the marital relationship. These personality characteristics play a large role in determining how satisfying the relationship will be perceived as being. By studying the marriages of ten famous couples-including Franklin and Eleanor Roosevelt, The Duke and Duchess of Windsor, and Robert and Elizabeth Barrett Browning-Dr. Jerry M. Lewis examines what they can teach us about what works and what doesn''t work in constructing this life-altering relationship. Dr. Lewis relies on over thirty years of research on marital-family systems. His studies focus on the important differences between those relationships that promote growth, heal early wounds, or are destructive to all concerned. Marriages are for better or worse. They encourage the individual psychological maturity of husbands and wives as well as their children. But when it''s severely dysfunctional, it may contribute to the development of psychiatric disorders. Marriage and other long-term committed relationships also decisively influence life satisfaction, physical health, and the establishment of life''s meaning. Learn from the mistakes and triumphs of famous marriages to make your own marriage stronger and healthier!

A Book Is Born It was 1962. I was at Paramount filming The Nutty Professor, a labor of love that transcended everything else I had ever done. One day I felt instinctively that there were minor rumblings among my crew. Backbiting and envy are two of the most destructive forces I know of. So I went home that night, sat down and wrote a tome -- a small one, but a tome, on the benefits of being a person. I wrote the words in a matter of two hours and had my sketch artist interpret what I wrote in sketches. Within one week I had the little book printed and bound and made up only 200 copies (my crew was a total of 185). I distributed the book to every member of that crew and it made a difference... and I created a small, worthwhile message to all who read it. Jerry Lewis
