During the heyday of the cattle drives in the old west, roughly a third of all the cowboys were of African, Mexican and Indian descent. This book is the fictionalized account of the life of a real black cowboy named Nat Love, who also called himself Deadwood Dick. Ain't Suppose to Die a Natural Death is the classic story of good versus evil. What makes the inner struggle difficult for Nat Love is that the 'line' separating good and evil is sometimes obscure. The book is divided into two sub-books or volumes. In book I: Bondage, Nat, (a former slave), travels west to become a cowboy. It is there that he allows his basic desires to dominate him. Much like the protagonists in Crime and Punishment, Native Son, The Emperor Jones and even The Call of the Wild, Nat feels the necessity to adapt in a hostile and indifferent world by being hostile. He creates his own morality - making good, evil and evil, good. Blessed with superior intellectual abilities, Nat pursues a path of wealth, power and prestige; and, in textbook Machiavellian style, he uses and destroys the lives of individuals to promote those goals. For him, 'the end justifies the means' and people are dispensable. He begins his journey of destruction by assuming leadership of a little known Indian tribe and later becomes a much feared bounty hunter. As a gunslinger, he calls himself Deadwood Dick. In Book II: Redemption, Nat is the leader of a thriving black township called Pompey. But when a tragic event, of Nat's own making, nearly destroys the town, the stage is set for Nat's redemption. He comes to understand that there are absolute moral standards - standards created by a loving, omnipotent God. He also comes to understand thatfollowing this God may mean making hard sacrifices. Some contemporary issues are woven into the story. Abortion, the politics of race and color and moral relatively are some age old issues Nat has to deal with. Regardless of race, gender and religious persuasion, the books hold up mirrors to the faces of the readers and confronts them with the main issues of each. What are you going to do with this Jesus?

Broadway, once upon a time. A place where people buy tickets at the box office, with cash; where patrons dress for theatre, with no sneakers, no water bottles, and no backpacks; and the only text messages are the ones put there by the playwright. A place where iconic legends of stage and screen can be found in plain view, smiling politely or egotistically preening. Where three dollars will get you a balcony seat at the biggest hit—or the lowliest flop—in town. And a place where an innocent teenager from the suburbs can buy a ticket, slip through the stage door, and wander o'er the threshold into the magical world backstage. Steven Suskin introduces Broadway, once upon a time, in Offstage Observations: Tales of the Not-So-Legitimate Theatre. The drama critic and noted chronicler of Broadway takes the reader through a decade's worth of adventures, working his way from a menial pencil sharpener for producer David Merrick toward a career as a full-fledged manager, producer, and drama critic. The book follows the author's progress from the wintry night after his sixteenth birthday, when he unexpectedly finds himself alone on the empty stage of a Broadway theatre, peering out at the silent, empty auditorium lit only by a solitary ghost light to the matinee eight summers later when he finds himself accidentally and uncomfortably acting in a Broadway musical, bombarded by roars of laughter from a houseful of playgoers. A keen observer of the impertinent with an ear for amusing anecdotes, whimsical curiosities, and exaggerated tales of life upon the wicked stage, Suskin draws a portrait of a not-so-long-ago theatre world that has all but vanished.
