Both 2014 books are at the publishers! I should be getting the galleys for the 1937 Flood book any day. The Art Deco book is still being eviscerated.

Can't believe that after years of struggling as a writer I actually have two books coming out soon! Book number 5 is "Cincinnati Theaters" from Arcadia. I wrote this with my good friend the photographer Doug Weise and an old acquaintance, Phil Lind, who is quite the historian. In May I have a number 6, the book I have been researching and working on for years: "The Cincinnati Courthouse Riot". This one is being released by Pelican, a very prestigious publisher.

Wild times here! My fourth book, "Cincinnati Under Water: the 1937 Flood," is finally released. This weekend I will be at the prestigious Books by the Banks event at the Convention Center.

At least things are not boring!

As Dr. Smith would say, "Oh... the pain..
Art Deco Book Coming in July!
Great news! My fourth book, Art Deco Cincinnati, has now gone to the printer! I have battled two editors, mostly by surrendering unconditionally. However, for people in the Cincinnati area, there is an incredible vintage photo of the original Frisch's Mainliner restaurant in Fairfax. Arcadia tells me that he release date is July 14th.
The book was co-written with photographer Doug Weise, who also has a Deviantart page and has probably not updated it since the Crimean War. I did the writing, while he and my son Jordan traveled throughout the Cincinnati area taking pics of Art Deco. Believe me- there is plenty of it!
Hope everyone enjoys the
