Paperback. Condizione: Good. Here's Akron, with attitude. A giant cockroach, ticket-happy traffic cops, sexting teens, bumbling politicians, prima donna sports stars . . . There are few topics that Akron Beacon Journal columnist Bob Dyer hasn't tackled head-on. His biting commentary has earned him followers and foes alike along with a boatload of awards. In this collection of his best writing, Dyer nearly crashes the Goodyear blimp, drag races in a '64 Plymouth Barracuda, drives a 126-ton locomotive, panhandles on a downtown street corner, surveys the Great Wall of Fairlawn, dispenses unsolicited advice to LeBron James, and generally waves a red flag at political correctness. Great fun to read as long as you're not overly sensitive.…

Hardback. Condizione: Good. One of Cleveland's most popular celebrities shares favorite stories about remarkable people and extraordinary events from a long and varied career . . .Hundreds of thousands of fans tuned in to Larry Morrow each morning for an amazing four decades on four radio stations--WIXY, 3WE, WERE, and WQAL. Larry hit the Cleveland airwaves in 1966 at rock 'n' roll powerhouse WIXY 1260 as one of the WIXY Supermen, who led that station to #1 ratings. His upbeat and friendly style made him a fan favorite, and his loyal audience followed wherever he took his show. Always an outspoken booster for his adopted home town--even in tough times when that attitude was uncommon--Larry quickly became popular off the air, too. He was master of ceremonies for many of Cleveland's biggest events, including its official bicentennial celebration, attended by 450,00 people--the largest crowd ever assembled in Cleveland. He was chosen to introduce five U.S. presidents. For his nonstop civic efforts he was given the honorary title Mr. Cleveland by former mayor George Voinovich. Larry was inducted into the prestigious Radio and Television Hall of Fame and is the only Ohio broadcaster nominated to the National Radio Hall of Fame. Through it all, his success has been based on a simple principle: Do all the good you can . . . to everyone you can . . . every time you can.…

Paperback. Condizione: Good. #14 in the Milan Jacovich mystery series . . . Going to your high school reunion is never fun. But this time, it's murder. When Cleveland private eye Milan Jacovich reluctantly attends the fortieth reunion of his St. Clair High School graduating class, he gets a rude surprise: one of his classmates is found shot dead and another quickly becomes the main suspect. The suspect, successful playwright Tommy Wiggins, draws Milan into the case--and puts him in a very awkward position. Investigating his former schoolmates is an uncomfortable task for Milan, as he soon discovers the dark secrets of people he only thought he knew. The deceased Dr. Phil Kohn, it turns out, was a cad who managed to make more than a few enemies during his abbreviated life. But did a forty-year-old grudge really lead to his death? Or was it something more recent--a jealous spouse, a shady business partner? Milan's hunt for the real killer leads him through the oddly intertwined worlds of Cleveland's medical community, organized crime, polite suburban society, and hard-core drug dealers. It's a tough investigation in which Milan could lose many friends--and, if he's not careful, his life.…

Paperback. Condizione: Good. #16 in the Milan Jacovich mystery series . . .An oversized appetite for fine dining, flashy suits, and Las Vegas call girls has made Cleveland councilman Bert Loftus the target of media scrutiny and an FBI investigation that may end his career. Now he says someone is trying to kill him. Eager to identify his attacker but not so eager to work with the cops, Loftus turns to private investigator Milan Jacovich (pronounced MY-lan YOCK-ovitch) for help. A working P.I. can't afford to be too choosy about his clients, so Milan takes the job--though he's not inclined to take Loftus's story seriously. At least it will be an opportunity to break in his new employee, young powder-keg Kevin K.O. O'Bannion. Milan and K.O. quickly notice that something smells fishy--and it isn't just the Whiskey Island Marina, where local power brokers down pricey drinks in front of Lake Erie sunsets. Loftus and several Cleveland landlords appear to be involved in something much darker than a typical cash-for-favors trade. After a kinky call girl is found dead near the Cleveland Zoo and secret sex tapes are discovered in her downtown high-rise, Milan and K.O. must follow a trail of bribes, bullet casings, and debauchery to find the killer and uncover the true menace amid the muck of local government corruption. Luckily they have the help of Cleveland police detective Tobe Blaine, a tough-as-nails officer recently relocated from Cincinnati. She and Milan team up in their search for clues and discover they have much more in common than crime . . .…
