"These stories are best described as rites of passage. The rest are tales of people at crossroads, seekers and troubled souls, finding compassion in themselves or others or for some finding it nowhere. The stories emerge out of the writer's life long love affair with the Southwest where he grew up and in which he's lived his adult life. In the backdrop of the stories is the landscape of the harsh urban world of the desert Southwest. These are tough honest stories about believable people and situations, stories true to the environment that created them. This is his fourth book. TALK TO ME, JAMES DEAN is a vividly presented collection of individual gems which are showcased under one cover and engagingly entertaining, quite thought-provoking, and very highly recommended reading. H. Lee Barnes is one of those rare authors who seems able to touch the minds, invoke the emotions, and stroke the imaginations of his readers with a quite remarkable consistency from beginning to end." -- from Midwest Book Review.

From the dust jacket: "Jude Helms is a Las Vegas casino dealer who barely survived the deadly MGM fire in 1980. More than two decades later, he's still dealing, a tired, middle-aged man, divorced, struggling with debt, and trying to be a good father to his children. Then he loses his job and his car is totaled in an accident. When an attractive woman friend offers to help him get another job, Jude is happy to go along. Gradually, he realizes that his new job is part of an elaborate scheme to cheat a casino and that his own survival and that of his children depend on his finding the courage and ingenuity to extricate himself. COLD DECK is the exciting story of desperation and survival set in the insider's world of Casino WORkers and sunbaked streets beyond the Strip. Rarely have Sin City's denizens and its unique atmosphere of glitter, greed, and fear been captured so memorably.". Signed by the Author (his signature only). First Printing of the First Edition.

Fine condition in a Near Fine dust jacket (only very lightly rubbed). NO chips. NO tears. NO fading. Sharp corners. NOT a remainder. Pages are fresh, crisp, clean and unmarked. Bound in the original black cloth, stamped in bright silver on the spine. From the dust jacket: "MINIMAL DAMAGE contains seven stories and a novella that depict veterans of several wars in search of dignity and purpose in a civilian life that has no need for men who were soldiers. Psychically scarred, in emotional crisis, pushed to the fringes of society, or in relentless battle with their memories, many of these men find themselves living 'like warts on America's ass.' The characters range from the enigmatic Mr K, who runs a brutally violent reality television show and once led an escape from a Korean POW camp, to the doomed Billy Debecki, who regains his dignity in the last minutes of his life by remembering that he once willingly risked his life to save an enemy soldier. In one story, a man who was never a soldier finds a path toward reconciliation with his brother, a former Marine. In another, a man recalls becoming a soldier by watching the humanity of a fellow recruit disintegrate in basic training. In the novella SNAKE BOY, a homeless Vietnam vet is kidnapped by a snake-handling evangelist. The depth of damage is never immediately apparent for these men, whether they are living proper, upstanding lives or lost, drifting ones. In war, chance, luck, and arbitrary timing conspire to determine a soldier's fate. In civilian life, the same uncontrollable forces influence who finds a place in society and who is doomed to keep searching. With emotion, humor, and clarity, Barnes creates characters who show us what it is to live with the trauma of having experienced combat. The fractured souls and twisted lives of these men remind us that war's ultimate damage extends far beyond the battlefield.". INSCRIBED/SIGNED by the AUTHOR. Hardcover.

To the gaming industry's front-line employees, its dealers, the casino is a far less glamorous environment, a workplace full of emotional tension, physical and mental demands, humor and pathos. Author H. Lee Barnes, who spent many years as a dealer in some of Las Vegas's best-known casinos, shows us this world from the point of view of the table-games dealer. Told in the voices of dozens of dealers, male and female, young and old, DUMMY UP AND DEAL takes us to the dealer's side of the table. We observe the 'breaking in' that constitutes a dealer's training, where the hands learn the balletic motions of the game while the mind undergoes the requisite hardening to endure long hours of concentration and the demands of often unreasonable and sometimes abusive players. We discover how dealers are hired and assigned to shifts and tables, how they interact with each other and with their supervisors, and how they deal with players - the winners and the losers, the Sweethearts' and the 'Dragon Lady,' the tourists looking for a few thrills and the mobsters showing off their 'juice.' We observe cheaters on both sides of the table and witness the exploits of such high-rollers as Frank Sinatra and Colonel Parker, Elvis's manager. And we learn about the dealers' lives after-hours, how some juggle casino work with family responsibilities while others embrace the bohemian lifestyle of the Strip and sometimes lose themselves to drugs, drink, or wild sex. It's a life that invites cynicism and bitterness, that can erode the soul and deaden the spirit. But the dealer's life can also offer moments of humor, encounters with generous and kindly players, moments of pride or humanity or professional solidarity. Barnes writes with the candor of a keen observer of his profession, someone who has seen it all - many times - but has never lost his capacity to wonder, to sympathize, or to laugh. DUMMY UP AND DEAL is a vivid and colorful insider's view of the casino industry, a fascinating glimpse behind the glitter into the real world of the casino worker.". INSCRIBED/SIGNED by the AUTHOR.
