Hardback. Condición: Good. A mother's search for the son she gave up uncovers terrifying secrets in a Minnesota town in this masterfully depicted true-crime tale (Publishers Weekly). In 1962, Jerry Sherwood gave up her newborn son, Dennis, for adoption. Twenty years later, she set out to find him--only to discover he had died before his fourth birthday. The immediate cause was peritonitis, but the coroner had never decided the mode of death, writing deferred rather than indicate accident, natural causes, or homicide. This he did even though the autopsy photos showed Dennis covered from head to toe in ugly bruises, his clenched fists and twisted facial expression suggesting he had died writhing in pain. Harold and Lois Jurgens, a middle-class, churchgoing couple in picturesque White Bear Lake, Minnesota, had adopted Dennis and five other foster children. To all appearances, they were a normal midwestern family, but Jerry suspected that something sinister had happened in the Jurgens household. She demanded to know the truth about her son's death. Why did authorities dismiss evidence that marked Dennis as an endangered child? Could Lois Jurgens's brother, a local police lieutenant, have interfered in the investigation? And most disturbing of all, why had so many people who'd witnessed Lois's brutal treatment of her children stay silent for so long? Determined to find answers, local detectives and prosecutors rebuilt the case brick by brick, finally exposing the shocking truth behind a nightmare in suburbia. A finalist for the Edgar Award, A Death in White Bear Lake is a distinguished entry in the annals of crime documentary, and a vivid portrait of the all-American town that harbored a sadistic killer (The Washington Post).…

Hardback. Condición: Good. How one man brought the Olympics to Los Angeles, fueling the city's urban transformation. Dreamers and Schemers chronicles how Los Angeles?s pursuit and staging of the 1932 Olympic Games during the depths of the Great Depression helped fuel the city?s transformation from a seedy frontier village to a world-famous metropolis. Leading that pursuit was the ?Prince of Realtors,? William May (Billy) Garland, a prominent figure in early Los Angeles. In important respects, the story of Billy Garland is the story of Los Angeles. After arriving in Southern California in 1890, he and his allies drove much of the city?s historic expansion in the first two decades of the twentieth century. Then, from 1920 to 1932, he directed the city?s bid for the 1932 Olympic Games. Garland?s quest to host the Olympics provides an unusually revealing window onto a particular time, place, and way of life. Reconstructing the narrative from Garland?s visionary notion to its consequential aftermath, Barry Siegel shows how one man?s grit and imagination made California history.…
