In KILLING THE SS: The Hunt for the Worst War Criminals in History (Henry Holt & Co.; Oct. 9, 2018; $30; 304 pages with maps and photographs) once again Bill O'Reilly and Martin Dugard bring readers into the annals of the World War II era to the global manhunt for the most notorious Nazis in Adolf Hitler's inner circle. After the fall of the Third Reich, combined British, Israeli and American intelligence forces worked ceaselessly to apprehend Adolf Eichmann, Josef Mengele, Martin Bormann, Klaus Barbie and Elfriede Huth, among others - the top operatives for Hilter's chilling Final Solution. In the hallmark style of the prior seven books in this national, #1 best-selling series, KILLING THE SS brings the reader on the epic and brave search hunting down Hitler's worst henchmen and women - the very people who deployed the Fuhrer's plans - as they fled for their lives hiding in South America, frequently in plain sight and working menial jobs to throw off pursuers, but usually with the luxury they didn't afford their victims, with their families. The book reunites fans of the series with an in-depth look at this particular facet of WWII - bringing the Nazis to trial and execution for their war crimes.
With a pace like that of a spy thriller, KILLING THE SS follows members of the Mossad, MI6, and the CIA, as they piece together tips to flush out the Nazis on the lam. Isser Harel, Benny Ferencz, Eli Rosenbaum, Simon Wiesenthal and even the future prime minister Yitzhak Shamir are among those who played major roles in history's darkest chapter setting traps and creating extraordinary plans to capture the Reich's masterminds. The book ends with a startling, unexpected development when unlikely partners hunt down the notorious Nazi rocket scientist, Heinz Krug.

Last In Line was formed in 2011, when Vinny Appice, Jimmy Bain, and Vivian Campbell, (Ronnie James Dio’s co-conspirators and co-writers on the “Holy Diver”, “Last In Line” – the album from which they took their name, and “Sacred Heart” albums) teamed up with esteemed vocalist Andrew Freeman. The debut album “Heavy Crown” was released in February 2016, landing at #1 on the Billboard Heat-Seekers Chart. Initially, the release had been preceded by tragedy when bassist Jimmy Bain unexpectedly passed away at the age of 68 on January 23, 2016.  Last In Line, honoring what they knew would be Bain’s wish to keep the band moving, brought in renowned bassist Phil Soussan (ex-Ozzy Osbourne) and committed to sustained touring in support of the album, hitting festivals, headlining clubs, and sharing the stage with metal luminaries such as Saxon and Megadeth.
In late 2017, the band gathered in L.A. to start the recording of the second album, which was produced by the band members and Jeff Pilson (Foreigner, The End: machine, ex-Dokken), who also produced the debut album. Having really gelled as a band while touring in support of the debut album, the songwriting came readily to the members. They’ve created a record that shows a big progression in sound, while immediately being recognizable as Last In Line thanks to Vinny Appice’s rhythms, thunderous bass from Soussan, amazing vocals from Andrew Freeman, and the roaring guitars of Vivian Campbell.
“The musical style of ‘II’ is different from ‘Heavy Crown’, but it wasn’t something that we planned to do,” explains Vivian Campbell. “Phil is a more intricate player than Jimmy was and that, together with the natural growth and development of the band led us to the songs on the album. As always, we simply started to jam on ideas and see where they led us. But it’s fair to say that the songs on this album sound more developed, with more parts and more experimentation than the songs on ‘Heavy Crown’. The first album set a tone, but on ‘II’ we developed that idea and took it to the next logical stage.”
Drummer Vinny Appice, on the sound of the new record and song writing process, says “I always sound like me. Viv and I have been playing together for years and have the same feel and pulse and attitude. Now with Phil on bass, he allows a more melodic approach on the bass parts making the songs even more interesting. He fits in perfectly being from the same musical family and time as me and Viv. Mr. Freeman sings from his soul and completes the band’s sound with his melodies and amazing range.”
He continues, “the songwriting process was the same as DIO’s ‘Holy Diver’. First, we have fun writing together. We get in a room and jam on riffs and chords until we hit on something good, then continue to build it into a song. Andy puts his magic on it and it all works out very well.”
Asked about first single ‘Landslide’, Vocalist Andrew Freeman says, “’Landslide’ was the first song we wrote for this record. It was really easy to write as all of the parts fell into place quickly.  The title ‘Landslide’ is a metaphor relating to the day to day struggles that we all go through as people. Trying to keep on course when dealing with adversity, manipulation through media and leadership. It’s meant to inspire strength and resolve.
Phil Soussan says about how it was joining Last In Line and the development of the songs, “[i]t was refreshing to be able to write songs in such an organic fashion – by jamming and developing ideas as a group, without bringing in preconceived songs – something I haven’t done for ages. The result was a true collaboration, a concept that is so rare these days! Vinny has a unique style of drumming that, beyond keeping beats, inspires riffs and arrangements and Vivian has a way of playing that has a conviction to every note. He is able to turn every riff into a signature. Andrew was creative and unrestricted, focusing his contemporary influences into vocal stylings and hooks that are outside the classic rock clichés. He is very much a perfectionist.  Beyond trying to remain true to Jimmy’s playing and to the heritage of the relationship between Viv and Vinny, everyone was completely open to exploring any possible idea. I am honestly prouder of our efforts on this album than anything in which I have been involved in for a very long time.

Elizabeth White

<a class="spreaker-player" href="https://www.spreaker.com/episode/16861741" data-resource="episode_id=16861741" data-width="100%" data-height="350px" data-theme="dark" data-playlist="show" data-playlist-continuous="true" data-autoplay="false" data-live-autoplay="false" data-chapters-image="true" data-episode-image-position="right" data-hide-logo="true" data-hide-likes="false" data-hide-comments="false" data-hide-sharing="false" >Listen to "Elizabeth White Releases 55 Years Old Underemployed And Faking Normal" on Spreaker.</a><script async src="https://widget.spreaker.com/widgets.js"></script>

For the millions of people in their fifties and sixties who find themselves out of work, unable to find a job, and financially incapable of retiring, 55, UNDEREMPLOYED, AND FAKING NORMAL (Simon & Schuster; On sale January 8, 2019) is a practical plan for getting past any blame or shame, overcoming denial, and finding a path to a new normal.

Elizabeth White was inspired to write this book by her personal struggle. White has an impressive resume, including advanced degrees from Harvard and Johns Hopkins and a distinguished employment history. She started a business that failed and then tried to re-enter the work force in her mid-fifties, only to find that there is little demand for workers her age, even those with an outstanding resume. But she then discovered that her financial and employment hardship was not an isolated case. 55, UNDEREMPLOYED, AND FAKING NORMAL is an empowering guide for Baby Boomers in need of constructive advice to help get back on their feet, filled with emotional testimony and eye-opening facts and figures. As important as its practical advice is the book’s emotional support. With hard data and a comforting shoulder, White offers insightful pathways that she followed for personal and financial survival. The future, as she explains, can be better than you think with an unvarnished understanding of how to rebuild your sense of self and a new supportive community.

White is a charismatic speaker who travels to advocate on this subject. She has appeared on PBS NewsHour and her TED talk has received over 1 million views. Originally self-published, Simon & Schuster is relaunching White’s highly necessary book – updated with new information and stories – to bring White’s valuable advice to a larger public.

Gear heads, car nuts and travel enthusiasts alike are ready for a third season of The Grand Tour. All new episodes with co-hosts Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May will be released weekly, exclusively for Prime members in more than 200 countries and territories worldwide.

For season three, the trio have filmed around the world, causing more chaos than ever before as they travel through tricky terrains in Colombia, Mongolia, China, Detroit and…London’s Stansted Airport. Meanwhile, their giant studio tent remains back home in Jeremy’s garden in the Cotswolds.

Also new for season three is The Grand Tour Game, an episodic racing game from Amazon Game Studios based on The Grand Tour. The Grand Tour Game puts players behind the wheel with Clarkson, Hammond, and May. One moment fans are watching the hosts attempt some questionable automotive antics, and the next they’re at the wheel themselves—same car, same location, same chance to make a massive mess of it.

Season four has already been greenlit, and will see Clarkson, Hammond & May ditch the tent and take on big adventure road trips that fans around the world love.

James May was born in the 18th century in the British city of Bristol. He studied music at university, although secretly he was thinking about old motorcycles. In his career to date he has been sacked from Autocar, let go from Driven, and relieved of his duties at CAR magazine. He previously presented Top Gear and is now one of the presenters on The Grand Tour, pending dismissal. He lives in London where he likes playing the piano, going to the pub and dismantling carburettors, often all at the same time.

Prime members can stream The Grand Tour seasons one and two exclusively via the Amazon Prime Video app for TVs, connected devices including Fire TV, mobile devices and online at amazon.com/thegrandtour . Members can also download the series to mobile devices for offline viewing at no additional cost to their membership.
