Dime Store Dynasty of J.H. Miller is an Autobiographical novel of entrepreneurial achievement of the American Dream in mid-twentieth century America. The story is framed by historical events of the era. Artisans who contributed to the success of the company are showcased as well as their artistic contributions which are significant in their own right. While working a refreshment venue at the 1938 World's Fair, John Hardin Miller discovered he was not cut out to be an employee, he had to be his own man. He had to forge his own path to success. Starting in his basement in Evanston, Illinois he found success in becoming a millionaire by age 24. Although the stars were aligned and the right people came along at the right time, he still suffered the agony of loss along the way. However, he never suffered defeat. Neither, family loss, tragic fire, nor Corporate-America shenanigan's were able to deter him from his lifetime of achievements. His wife Shirley was his mainstay as were his father Ray and brothers Max and Gene.Over a dozen U.S Patents as well as several international patents were granted for his inventions. Significant among them was his molding machine which he identified as Mold-A-Rama. The brand survives today under the "Mold-A-Rama Incorporated" trademark. The machines are found in museums parks, and zoo's where young patrons thrill to watch plastic souvenirs as they are molded before them. John Miller also founded the Olympic program known as "Future Olympic Champions" which provided schools across the country to award certificates and a trophy of Olympic recognition to athletic students. Each Easter season, yards and bushes are adorned with pastel plastic Easter eggs which are the invention of J.H. Miller. In addition, since before WWII Christmas Nativity displays made in his facilities still adorn homes yet today. All of Miller's children were extraordinary achievers as well and their stories are woven into the fabric of the book as well. Twenty years in the writing, it represents the true American Dream.

Although she didn't buy a nativity set, she saw the sign and trusted that it was God's sign for her. Word spreads and neighbors hurry to her aid, even providing a tree and presents. The true meaning of Christmas is restored, not just for a woman and her children, but for an entire community.

Nostalgia isn't what it used to be. For many of us, modern memory is shaped less by a longing for the social customs and practices of the past or for family heirlooms handed down over generations and more by childhood encounters with ephemeral commercial goods and fleeting media moments in our age of fast capitalism. This phenomenon has given rise to communities of nostalgia whose members remain loyal to the toys, television, and music of their youth. They return to the theme parks and pastimes of their upbringing, hoping to reclaim that feeling of childhood wonder or teenage freedom. Consumed nostalgia took definite shape in the 1970s, spurred by an increase in the turnover of consumer goods, the commercialization of childhood, and the skillful marketing of nostalgia. Gary Cross immerses readers in this fascinating and often delightful history, unpacking the cultural dynamics that turn pop tunes into oldies and childhood toys into valuable commodities. He compares the limited appeal of heritage sites such as Colonial Williamsburg to the perpetually attractive power of a Disney theme park and reveals how consumed nostalgia shapes how we cope with accelerating change. Today nostalgia can be owned, collected, and easily accessed, making it less elusive and often more fun than in the past, but its commercialization has sometimes limited memory and complicated the positive goals of recollection. By unmasking the fascinating, idiosyncratic character of modern nostalgia, Cross helps us better understand the rituals of recall in an age of fast capitalism.

Controversial yet beloved among audiences, Christmas-themed horror movies emerged in the early 1970s and gained a notorious reputation with Silent Night, Deadly Night (1984), depicting Santa as an ax-wielding maniac. Some parents and conservative groups condemned the film, while others embraced the portrayal of Yuletide as a backdrop for fear and dread. Drawing on interviews with directors, producers, special effects artists, photographers and actors, this book celebrates the sordid, colorful history of the Christmas horror subgenre. Psycho Santa films such as Christmas Evil (1980) and 3615 code Pere Noel (1989) are examined, along with "Yule-Die" slashers like The Dorm that Dripped Blood (1982), Black Christmas (1974) and Silent Night, Bloody Night (1972). Commercial successes like Gremlins (1984) and Rare Exports: A Christmas Tale (2010) are covered, as well as more recent releases such as Better Watch Out (2016), Red Christmas (2016) and Deathcember (2019). Rare photographs, promotional materials and an annotated filmography are provided.
