| augie's restaurant & events harahan photos: From Wright Field, Ohio, to Hokkaido, Japan Benjamin Paul Hegi, 2015-10-15 In 1942, Colonel Curtis E. LeMay and his 305th Bomb Group left Syracuse, New York, bound for England, where they joined the Eighth Air Force and Royal Air Force in war against Germany and her allies. Over the next three years LeMay led American air forces in Europe, India, China, and the Pacific against the Axis powers. His efforts yielded advancement through the chain of command to the rank of Major General in command of the XXIst Bomber Command, the most effective strategic bombing force of the war.LeMay's activities in World War II are well-documented, but his personal history is less thoroughly recorded. Throughout the war he wrote hundreds of letters to his wife, Helen, and daughter, Jane. They are published for the first time in this volume, weaved together with meticulously researched narrative essays buttressed by both official and unofficial sources and supplemented with extensive footnotes. History remembers LeMay, the Commander well. From Wright Field, Ohio, to Hokkaido, Japan, will yield a better understanding of LeMay, the Man. |
| augie's restaurant & events harahan photos: Fat White Vampire Blues Andrew Fox, 2003-07-01 He’s undead, overweight, and can’t get a date Vampire, nosferatu, creature of the night—whatever you call him—Jules Duchon has lived (so to speak) in New Orleans far longer than there have been drunk coeds on Bourbon Street. Weighing in at a whopping four hundred and fifty pounds, swelled up on the sweet, rich blood of people who consume the fattiest diet in the world, Jules is thankful he can’t see his reflection in a mirror. When he turns into a bat, he can’t get his big ol’ butt off the ground. What’s worse, after more than a century of being undead, he’s watched his neighborhood truly go to hell—and now, a new vampire is looking to drive him out altogether. See, Jules had always been an equal opportunity kind of vampire. And while he would admit that the blood of a black woman is sweeter than the blood of a white man, Jules never drank more than his fair share of either. Enter Malice X . Young, cocky, and black, Malice warns Jules that his days of feasting on sisters and brothers are over. He tells Jules he’d better confine himself to white victims—or else face the consequences. And then, just to prove he isn’t kidding, Malice burns Jules’s house to the ground. With the help of Maureen, the morbidly obese, stripper-vampire who made him, and Doodlebug, an undead cross-dresser who (literally) flies in from the coast—Jules must find a way to contend with the hurdles that life throws at him . . . without getting a stake through the heart. It’s enough to give a man the blues. |

| augie's restaurant & events harahan photos: Chilly Gentilly Al Reisz, 2017-01-28 'Chilly Gentilly' is a section of New Orleans, Louisiana, that goes back to the founding of the old city in 1718. Being a part of New Orleans, it has survived floods, yellow fever epidemics and wars. This book goes back even further to the discovery of 'The Great Yellow Flood', the Mississippi River, by Henri De Soto in 1542; some 50 plus years after Columbus sets foot in the Americas. Examining the geography as well as the early history of this great New Orleans suburb is essential to understanding its importance in the saga of American History. 'Chilly Gentilly' is also a testament to the WWII generation who took it from a sparsely populated section of the city to a thriving area with its own unique architecture, schools, shops and churches; even its own Mardi Gras Krewes and parades at one time. The Baby Boom Era had arrived and they bore witness to Gentilly's Golden Age. This book knits together history, personal memoirs and fiction to illustrate just how Golden those years were. Together with early photographs and present day ones this book is an easy read and one that carries universal themes. New Orleans has always been a unique place and 'Chilly Gentilly' has always been an essential part of it. Includes over 60 photographs all in black & white. |
| augie's restaurant & events harahan photos: The Engines of the Night Barry N. Malzberg, 1984-01-01 Aspiring science fiction writers, take heed! If you want to understand where the field has been and where it's going?if you want a career?you need this book. In The Engines of the Night, Malzberg reviews his own ambivalent relationship with science fiction up to 1980 and gauges its past and future potentials. Would science fiction have been better off without Hugo Gernsback and the pulp-literature stigma with which he cursed it? What are the seminal works of science fiction? Can science fiction kill you? His answers are brilliant, unequivocal, and surprising. Updated with a 2001 introduction, this award-winning collection remains an essential and enduring history and critique of a fascinating and problematic genre. (Locus Award Winner. Hugo Award Nominee.) |

| augie's restaurant & events harahan photos: Strategic Air Warfare Richard H. Kohn, Joseph P. Harahan, 1988 The ability of the American air forces to wage war independently and to carry the battle to the enemy's heartland has played a critical role in American air doctrine and military strategy since the 1930s. Generals LeMay, Johnson, Burchinal, and Catton explain their roles in flying and commanding bombing missions and campaigns during World War II, in creating the atomic force in the immediate postwar years, and in building the Strategic Air Command in the 1950s. The Cuban Missile Crisis and the Vietnam War are also discussed. |

| augie's restaurant & events harahan photos: My Life as a White Trash Zombie Diana Rowland, 2014-07-17 Angel Crawford is a loser. Living with her alcoholic deadbeat dad in the swamps of southern Louisiana, she's a high school dropout with a pill habit and a criminal record who's been fired from more crap jobs than she can count. Now on probation for a felony, it seems that Angel will never pull herself out of the downward spiral her life has taken. That is, until the day she wakes up in the ER after overdosing on painkillers. Angel remembers being in an horrible car crash, but she doesn't have a mark on her. To add to the weirdness, she receives an anonymous letter telling her there's a job waiting for her at the parish morgue--and that it's an offer she doesn't dare refuse. Before she knows it she's dealing with a huge crush on a certain hunky deputy and a brand new addiction: an overpowering craving for brains. Plus, her morgue is filling up with the victims of a serial killer who decapitates his prey--just when she's hungriest! Angel's going to have to grow up fast if she wants to keep this job and stay in one piece. Because if she doesn't, she's dead meat. Literally. |
| augie's restaurant & events harahan photos: Hazardous Imaginings Andrew Fox, 2020-10-12 Science fiction is NOT a safe space! Two short novels and three stories by the author of Fat White Vampire Blues push the boundaries of taboo in science fiction. An English archeologist who yearns for the love of a young Jewish refuge sets out to convince a majority of the world's population that the Holocaust never happened - hoping to not only wipe it from the annals of history, but also from reality. The Martian colony Bradbury sends an investigator to pursue a gay Uyghur murderer in a future Australian city where members of each ethnic and grievance group are invisible to all those who don't belong to their tribe. A far-future academic treatise describes a rediscovered Fusionist liturgical text that combines the writings of radical feminist Joanna Russ and female slavery fantasist John Norman. An aggressively therapeutic State of Florida lovingly wraps its bureaucratic tentacles around those it deems unenlightened. A born-again Christian cafeteria worker in a small Texas college town becomes the only friend of an insectoid alien come to evacuate humanity from a doomed Earth. These stories leave no sacred cows unprodded. Remarkable work in an incendiary time. The Truest Quill. -Barry N. Malzberg, author of Beyond Apollo and Breakfast in the Ruins Andrew Fox writes like a combination of Kurt Vonnegut, Dave Barry and Molly Ivins... -Lucius Shepard, author of The Golden and Life During Wartime |

| augie's restaurant & events harahan photos: The Accidental City Lawrence N. Powell, 2013-10-14 This is the story of a city that shouldn't exist. In the seventeenth century, what is now America's most beguiling metropolis was nothing more than a swamp: prone to flooding, infested with snakes, battered by hurricanes. But through the intense imperial rivalries of Spain, France, and England, and the ambitious, entrepreneurial merchants and settlers from four continents who risked their lives to succeed in colonial America, this unpromising site became a crossroads for the whole Atlantic world. Lawrence N. Powell, a decades-long resident and observer of New Orleans, gives us the full sweep of the city's history from its founding through Louisiana statehood in 1812. We see the Crescent City evolve from a French village, to an African market town, to a Spanish fortress, and finally to an Anglo-American center of trade and commerce. We hear and feel the mix of peoples, religions, and languages from four continents that make the place electric-and always on the verge of unraveling. The Accidental City is the story of land-jobbing schemes, stock market crashes, and nonstop squabbles over status, power, and position, with enough rogues, smugglers, and self-fashioners to fill a picaresque novel. Powell's tale underscores the fluidity and contingency of the past, revealing a place where people made their own history. This is a city, and a history, marked by challenges and perpetual shifts in shape and direction, like the sinuous river on which it is perched. |
