The inner workings of the jazz “business.” “Off the books” refers to a life lived outside of conventional 9 to 5 society. Jazz music itself is “off the books” as far as much of pop culture is concerned. Many jazz lives have unfolded as marginal existences, as jazz guitarist Peter Leitch attests in this honest memoir. Off the Books: A Jazz Life is the story of a life lived in search of excellence in music and art, but also a life lived battling depression and alienation, and overcoming narcotics addiction. Leitch vividly relates a life lived trying to eke out a living in jazz clubs, nightclubs and studios in Montreal, Toronto and New York. He tells of growing up as an Anglophone in Montreal’s working class and predominantly French-speaking East End refinery district, discovering jazz on CBC radio and learning to play it—outside of the academy.

Following the orders of the great Emperor Cree of the Tudorian Empire, Lord Commander Gunther and his soldiers have overtaken a neutral piece of land between two members of the Human Alliance. His patience grows thin, day by day, but his trusted Cleric, Lucius Lightbringer continues to calm his soul. To try and trick Gunther into satiating his bloodlust, Governor Slarkin continues to whisper in his ear about the spoils of victory. Unfortunately for him, Lucius will not allow the Lord Commander to fall into his trap. Off to the west, the Emperor's son, Prince Loren, busily negotiates with the Crown Prince, Mutid Kerim al Aziz, of Harub, on how best to complete their alliance. Mutid is more than happy to join the Empire but he has a request. The only way he can help the Tudorians is to usurp his father as King, and he has some chilling requests for Prince Loren to get him there. And once there, he begins to feel the weight of power on his shoulders. And while the Emperor's game begins, the Elves, not wishing to be pawns, continue to try and thrive on their own. Though, internal discord between the two sisters, Aewyn, the High Priestess and temporary ruler of Aurelias, and Leila, the trusted commander of their army, threatens to tear them apart from within. The two cannot come to an agreement when they learn that the Tudorian Empire is breaking the peace around them. The once fragile peace that reigned across the lands begins to break as the pawns of the Emperor's game begin to take their places, and war begins to show its face once more...

Few institutions are as well suited as the monarchy to provide a window on postwar Japan. The monarchy, which is also a family, has been significant both as a political and as a cultural institution. This comprehensive study analyzes numerous issues, including the role of individual emperors in shaping the institution, the manner in which the emperor’s constitutional position as symbol has been interpreted, the emperor’s intersection with politics through ministerial briefings, memories of Hirohito’s wartime role, nationalistic movements in support of Foundation Day and the reign-name system, and the remaking of the once sacrosanct throne into a "monarchy of the masses" embedded in the postwar culture of democracy. The author stresses the monarchy’s "postwarness," rather than its traditionality.

The extraordinary wartime exploits of the British codebreakers based at Bletchley Park continue to fascinate and amaze. In The Emperor's Codes Michael Smith tells the story of how Japan's wartime codes were broken, and the consequences for the Second World War. He describes how the Japanese ciphers were broken and the effect on the lives of the codebreakers themselves. Using material from recently declassified British files, privileged access to Australian secret official histories and interviews with British, American and Australian codebreakers, this is the first full account of the critical role played by Bletchley Park and its main outposts around the world.

"With the ascension of a new emperor and the dawn of the Reiwa Era, Kenneth J. Ruoff has expanded upon and updated The People’s Emperor, his study of the monarchy’s role as a political, societal, and cultural institution in contemporary Japan. Many Japanese continue to define the nation’s identity through the imperial house, making it a window into Japan’s postwar history. Ruoff begins by examining the reform of the monarchy during the U.S. occupation and then turns to its evolution since the Japanese regained the power to shape it. To understand the monarchy’s function in contemporary Japan, the author analyzes issues such as the role of individual emperors in shaping the institution, the intersection of the monarchy with politics, the emperor’s and the nation’s responsibility for the war, nationalistic movements in support of the monarchy, and the remaking of the once-sacrosanct throne into a “people’s imperial house” embedded in the postwar culture of democracy. Finally, Ruoff examines recent developments, including the abdication of Emperor Akihito and the heir crisis, which have brought to the forefront the fragility of the imperial line under the current legal system, leading to calls for reform."
