"An Ugly Truth" by Sheera Frenkel and Cecilia Kang
You can't come away from reading this book without realizing that Facebook and Zuckerberg are interchangeable. Facebook's dichotomous business model... engineer connectivity and profit from it... combined with Zuckerberg's megalomania about growth.... and now ability, seemingly without consequence, to neuter the ability of a former US president to communicate on its massive platform, raise questions about how much power one man should have.

Caleb Chapman Soundhouse principal band, The Crescent Super Band, is on the main stage program.... quite an accomplishment for a band of fifteen to eighteen year olds. They play in the same program as well known professional jazz ensembles.

"Mountain Meadows Massacre" by Juanita Brooks
2. That this particular company met disaster was due to a most unhappy combination of circumstances: they were the first to pass when the war frenzy was at its height; their own attitude was such as to fan that frenzy and provoke added violence. Had they been of the temperament of the group immediately following, they would likely have escaped unharmed, although short of provisions and robbed of their cattle. But the reckless boasts and acts on the part of those who called themselves "Missouri Wildcats" culminated in disaster for the whole train.

"Billionaire Wilderness" by Justin Farrell
Farrell never quite succeeds in his effort to paint the rich man as evil or the "working poor" as being oppressed.
