    Lee Duffy was the hardest man in Middlesbrough and was a man feared by many. Bullied as a kid, Duffy later found himself in the same youth offenders unit as one of the bullies and he beat them up and tormented them without mercy.This book contains first- hand accounts from those who knew Duffy and wished to share their memories of him, whether in a flattering or unflattering way. There are accounts from people who knew Duffy because they had worked the doors with him and witnessed the many fights he had with drunks and doormen alike, and accounts from people who had hung around him and were privy to his inner thoughts. There are also accounts from those who knew Duffy as a bare-knuckle fighter and knew of his immense dislike for fellow hard man and street-fighting legend Paul Sykes, and there are accounts from those who knew Duffy because of his drug dealing activities, which involved taxing and relieving drug dealers of their ill-gotten gains and being targeted by underworld hitmen as a consequence. Lee Duffy is now gone but not forgotten as the stories detailed in this book will tell you.

    Beans, Biscuits, Family and Friends: Life Stories by Bill Goodman is a series of essays highlighting life in rural Kentucky many years ago, climbing and backpacking adventures with his friends from Glasgow, Ky. and a vivid portrait of his artist-cousin Joe Downing, an abstract painter who was better known in Europe than in the United States. Along the way, the author fondly remembers his mother's beaten biscuits, his attempts to grow the perfect tomato, and the excitement in reaching the summit of two of the highest mountain peaks in America. Life Stories has a little something for everyone--a time long forgotten in rural Kentucky, the thrill of victory at 14,000 feet and the beautiful story of a man from Horse Cave who went to Paris, France on vacation in the 1950s and never came home.
