Paperback. Zustand: Good. It was one of the biggest crime stories of the decade--two deadly killers, desperate and on the run. After months of planning, Ricky Matt and David Sweat cut, chopped, coerced, and connived their way out of a maximum-security prison in the wilderness of upstate New York and managed to elude police for three weeks, sending the region into lockdown and keeping the entire country on edge. The media called it a bold escape for the ages, and veteran true-crime writer Michael Benson leads us along the story's every wild path to dig out a tale of adventure, psychology, sex, and brutality. Escape from Dannemora examines the strange case of Joyce Mitchell, the long-time prison employee who had a sexual relationship with at least one of the killers, and who smuggled them tools and aided in the escape, while they cooked up a plan to kill her husband. In the end, Benson looks closely at conditions at the Clinton Correctional Facility in Dannemora, NY, a crumbling Gothic pile now under investigation for charges of drug trafficking and brutality.…

Hardback. Zustand: Good. The sensational, lurid, and wickedly entertaining true story of the brothers who invented Hollywood to become the godfathers of cinema--movie moguls Nicholas and Joseph Schenck--studded with glamorous stars, scandals, mobsters, murders, and one legendary blonde bombshell . . . They were the Godfathers of the Movies. Groundbreaking pioneers of the Hollywood Dream Factory, Joseph and Nicholas Schenck may not have been household names like the Warner brothers or Louis B. Mayer, but they were infinitely more powerful, influential--and ruthless. A pair of Russian immigrants with giant ambitions, the Schencks turned their small nickelodeon business in New York's Bowery into a partnership with Loew's movie theaters and a controlling interest in three major studios: MGM, Twentieth Century-Fox, and United Artists. They painted the silver screen silver, laid the foundations for the all-powerful studio system, and ruled a global movie empire from their Gatsby-sized mansions on the East and West Coasts. The Schencks had become moguls. Their story is the stuff of legends--and their scandals are among the greatest stories Hollywood never told. This riveting, behind-the-scenes account reveals the surprising truth about: * The union-busting Mob deal that landed Joe Schenck in federal prison for four months on tax evasion charges, including deductions for a ménage à trois. * The cutthroat and merciless political maneuvering that defined the Hollywood studio heads. * The lurid murder charges against silent film star "Fatty" Arbuckle--whose legal defense was paid for by Joe Schenck. * Joe's secret infatuation with Marilyn Monroe. * The brothers' ingenious creation of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences and the Oscars--and indomitable control over the entire film industry. From the earliest days of silent films and the swinging era of the Roaring Twenties, through the Golden Age of the studio system and the patriotic call of World War II, to the Red Scare paranoia of the McCarthy years, the history of the Schenck brothers is the story of Hollywood itself--and the enduring power of the American Dream. Moguls is a must-read for film fans, history buffs, and anyone who loves the movies. …
