"Athens is the best of small college towns: affluent, cultured, tolerant, safe, and insulated from a world that seems to lack all those advantages. But at the beginning of a hot dry summer, Athens sheds its communal innocence as two teenagers are killed in a police chase gone bad. Joe Holly is a burned-out Athens councilman with a depressed wife, an autistic son, and his own downtown movie theatre which is losing money. His baby died fifteen years ago, but he talks to her every week when he visits her grave. Jack Hamilton married his college tutor, wrecked his knees playing professional football, and loves his job at the post office. Until his fifteen year old gifted daughter is killed, he thinks he is the luckiest man in the world. Running for re-election to an office he doesn't care about anymore, Holly is suddenly in the middle of a public crisis as the Athens police department is accused of negligence in the death of a drug-dealing thug, and. Becky Hamilton. As Holly's campaign for re-election nears the first Tuesday in November he finally understands his own limitations and the choice he must make. Hamilton and his wife Marcie refuse to participate in the public drama that their daughter's death has inspired. Their private grief has its own spiral, and all they want is to be left alone. Although Becky's parents could not save her life, they refuse to relinquish her memory to a public in search of a martyr. Athens, America is, finally, the story of two men dealing with public tragedy and private grief. And the lesson for a reader is from Joe Holly, who amends Tip O'Neill's famous axiom, "All politics is local." For Holly, "All local politics is personal." - from the inner front jacket flap. "I live in Athens, Iowa, a town that doesn't really exist except as a moral lesson in mass hysteria. North Carolina has Chapel Hill, the Athens of the South. Georgia has Athens, the Athens of Georgia. I have Athens, Iowa, the Athens of the Midwest. Iowa, more pigs than people, corn capital of the universe. Like all college towns, and island of art and intellect and tax supported affluence, a world safe from the crime and poverty and shameless hucksterism of the rest of America. Or so we tell ourselves. We're different. We're better. We live the life of the mind. A world of perpetual adolescence, a world in which half the population is engaged in preparing the other half for the future. Give us your young, we tell those nervous and loving parents who want their children's lives to be happier and more comfortable than their own. Give us your sons and daughters, their hopes and fears, their insecurities and their student loans. Wrap them in a ACT or SAT score and pack them off to Athens." - from the inner rear jacket flap. "Larry Baker's immense knowledge of local politics comes from his own experience, and that knowledge is put to dramatic effect in Athens, America. But Athens is more than a political novel. It's also a highly moral and humae story, with a narrator who is both astute and forgiving of human foibles. And, ultimately, while being a story about a certain kind of American, it's also a very tender love story. I hope it sells a million copies." - Haven Kimmel, author. "I read this extraordinary book in two enormous gulps while on the set in Vancouver. Athens has it all. Like a multi-layered world carved on ivory by the most skilled of Chinese artisans, Larry Baker has replicated our complicated, contentious, duplicitous, stupid, and deeply moving America. You'll see your town in this powerful story, and how you see yourself after reading it may be determined by who you are." - Peter Coyote, actor. Signed by Author(s).

Illustrations (most in color). Cover has some wear and soiling. LTTE stands for the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam. This document addresses the noted "Discipline" of the Tamil Tigers in the context of a variety of murders, massacres, atrocities, and other violent acts. This work is more a celebration of the victory of the Tamil Tigers than it is a work that extols positive attributes of the terrorist group. Copies are extremely scarce in the United States. The Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (commonly known as the LTTE or the Tamil Tigers) was a Tamil separatist organization that was based in northeastern Sri Lanka. Founded in May 1976 by Velupillai Prabhakaran, it waged a secessionist nationalist insurgency to create an independent state of Tamil Eelam in the north and east of Sri Lanka for Tamil people.[9] This campaign led to the Sri Lankan Civil War, which ran from 1983 until 2009, when the LTTE was defeated by the Sri Lankan military during the presidency of Mahinda Rajapaksa. Due to its military victories, policies, call for national self-determination and constructive Tamil nationalist platform the LTTE was supported by major sections of the Tamil community. University Teachers for Human Rights (Jaffna) claimed that "by combination of internal terror and narrow nationalist ideology the LTTE succeeded in atomizing the community. It took away not only the right to oppose but even the right to evaluate, as a community, the course they were taking. This gives a semblance of illusion that the whole society is behind the LTTE." At the height of its power, the LTTE possessed a well-developed militia and carried out many high-profile attacks, including the assassinations of several high-ranking Sri Lankan and Indian politicians. The LTTE was the only militant group to assassinate two world leaders: former Indian Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi in 1991 and Sri Lankan President Ranasinghe Premadasa in 1993. The LTTE invented suicide belts and pioneered the use of women in suicide attacks in warfare. It also acquired and used light aircraft in some of its attacks. Velupillai Prabhakaran headed the organization from its inception until his death in 2009. The LTTE was proscribed as a terrorist organization by 32 countries, including the United States, European Union and India. Historical inter-ethnic imbalances between majority Sinhalese and minority Tamil populations are alleged to have created the background for the origin of the LTTE. Post independent Sri Lankan governments attempted to rectify the disproportionate favoring and empowerment of Tamil minority by the colonial rulers, which led to discriminatory ethnic policies including the "Sinhala Only Act" and gave rise to separatist ideologies among many Tamil leaders. By the 1970s, initial non violent political struggle for an independent mono-ethnic Tamil state was used as justification for a violent secessionist insurgency led by the LTTE. Over the course of the conflict, the Tamil Tigers frequently exchanged control of territory in north-east Sri Lanka with the Sri Lankan military, with the two sides engaging in intense military confrontations. It was involved in four unsuccessful rounds of peace talks with the Sri Lankan government over the course of the conflict. At its peak in 2000, the LTTE was in control of 76% of the landmass in the Northern and Eastern provinces of Sri Lanka. At the start of the final round of peace talks in 2002, the Tamil Tigers controlled a 15,000 km2 area. After the breakdown of the peace process in 2006, the Sri Lankan military launched a major offensive against the Tigers, defeating the LTTE militarily and bringing the entire country under its control. Victory over the Tigers was declared by Sri Lankan President Mahinda Rajapaksa on 16 May 2009, and the LTTE admitted defeat on 17 May 2009. Prabhakaran was killed by government forces on 19 May 2009. Selvarasa Pathmanathan succeeded Prabhakaran as leader of the LTTE, but he was later arrested in Malaysia and handed over to the Sri Lankan government. Presumed First Edition, First printing [thus].
