Fulton Books author Michael Silano has completed his most recent book "The Gloves": a powerful memoir that explores the author's family history and the beautiful and compassionate life of his mother.
"The year was 1910 when my grandfather immigrated from Italy and joined a Hell's Kitchen mob soon after," writes Silano. "In 1925, he met an innocent girl from New Jersey who wrongly crossed a legendary block in midtown Manhattan and wound up outside a speakeasy. They would marry, but the Great Depression, Pearl Harbor, and the ensuing War would change their lives forever.
"The story of her four daughters growing up in Brooklyn unfolds with equal measures of grace and tragedy, as life grants and takes away its greatest gifts over the years. The oldest daughter would marry first. Her husband would win the Silver Star for bravery during WWII, and his brother would come within one boxing match of challenging Joe Louis for the world title.
"The other daughters' lives would take different paths. All had families of their own as the tides of life ebb and flow. In 1990, Hollywood would write about one such incident in an Academy Award-winning movie loosely based on fact and fiction.
"Time transcends over five generations as we learn about loyalty and betrayal, joy and sadness while struggling through dyslexia and autism. Read about all sorts of mayhem and murder. Plus, alcohol and drugs, gambling, bookmaking, and racketeering.
"'The Glove's starts as a tribute to a remarkable and selfless life. That life belonged to my mother, as she was one of the four daughters. It continues, however, as an autobiography of one not so gifted."
Published by Fulton Books, Michael Silano's book weaves the intricate tapestry of his ancestral history, pulling back the curtain on both the good and less sincere intentions of various family members. A moving tribute to his mother and the overall experience of Italian Americans, Silano crafts an unforgettable journey through history that will remain with readers long after its conclusion.

Fulton Books author March Lions has completed his most recent book "The Last Sunset": a suspenseful science fiction novel that takes readers on an unforgettable adventure.
Two baby girls seating in the rear of a car are involved in a terrible accident and their mother dies. An alien spacecraft hovering in the storm above witnesses the event and teleports the girls from the burning car. The girls are taken to the alien's home world on the other side of the galaxy. On arrival, they are separated and never told they were saved from a burning vehicle on a planet on the other side of the galaxy.
Twenty-six years later, they are headed to Earth on opposite sides of good and evil. However, they are not aware they are sisters, let alone earthlings. The younger sister is an agent for the alien, Captain Arantose, who wants to either conquer or destroy the Earth for its precious raw materials. The other sister's mission is to either protect Earth or let it be destroyed.
The eyes of Earth can't see every inch of space and spot an intruder, with either good or bad intentions, which could sneak through and take over or destroy Earth. When these aliens arrive, can Earth survive?
Author March Lions was born in Puerto Rico and relocated to New York City at the age of five with his parents. He didn't speak any English, but he was enrolled in public school anyway. He learned the English language and the culture of New York City. He flourished through grade and high school while, at the same time, learning the Spanish language at home. He was taught the ties and heritage of the island and its people.
Shortly before his nineteenth birthday, he enlisted into the U.S. Marine Corps and left for boot camp in mid-April. Becoming a U.S. Marine was one of his goals. He felt that if he was going to serve his country in the military, he might as well go with the best fighting force. After boot camp in Parris Island, South Carolina, he was trained in jungle tactics and warfare. He knew his fate was to go to the Republic of South Vietnam, but he didn't regret it for a moment. In November, he received orders to report to be transported to South Vietnam. He was given two weeks' leave, and on the morning of Thanksgiving Day 1966, he left his family and friends to defend and protect the people of South Vietnam against the communist north.
He was trained well to defend the people of South Vietnam and to protect his fellow marines. During the last week of September of the following year, an explosive device blew up underneath him while on a patrol. His world would never be the same. The explosion traumatically blew off his left leg just above the knee and his right leg up to his hip. He didn't think life was over because he knew the Marines would do everything possible to save his life.
Six months later, he was at the Philadelphia Naval Hospital and fitted with artificial legs, but he knew walking was not realistic. Confined to a wheelchair, he became a federal government employee to help other veterans achieve what he already had: respect and a job. While in the federal service, he was part of a group of specialists involved in drafting and reviewing federal employment laws and regulations for disabled veterans, Vietnam Era veterans, and other severely disabled persons. While he was working in the federal government, he attended community college at night. He completed his college education online and received a BA degree in general studies. He retired from the workforce in 2012, but he's now doing what he loves and is enjoying very much--writing.
Author March Lions writes, "At twenty-four years old, Diane Sarah Trey was already a widow. She can still remember the moment her life changed forever. Her husband, a U.S. Marine stationed in the Middle East, was killed during a routine patrol when she was five months pregnant with her second child. The tragedy made her emotionally unstable. Unfortunately, mothers don't have much time to gather their emotions when they have a family to take care of. The father of her children had left behind two beautiful young girls. Their ages are now two years old and the other three months old. She vowed to raise them as their father would've wanted. She loved and protected her daughters dearly with all her strength. They were her world and the only link she had left to her late husband."
Published by Fulton Books, March Lions's book invites readers to discover whether the leaders of Earth will be able to negotiate and save its inhabitants. Will Earth's inhabitants be ready to sacrifice everything or die?

David B. Kane, who trained for two years in the art of International Taekwondo, and created two internationally known Internet shows, "Deep Throat" and "Dovid O'Cathain," has completed his new book, "Teacher": a compelling and spellbinding fantasy of an otherworldly conflict that threatens to wipe out two species if they cannot learn to tolerate one another and work together to defeat their great mutual enemy.
"In denial, two species from alien worlds face a similar future," writes Kane. "Teachers with generations' worth of training to fight the Darkness first must fight the complacency and corruption of their own Sounders. Poseidon, a Master Teacher, must train two young Sounders, Quickfin and Silverfin, to possess that rare trait of greatness. Quickfin's genius precipitates a crisis unforeseen even by Poseidon, which leads them on a current of self-discovery. From youth to maturity, the two young Sounders must become more than they thought they could be.
"To defeat the Darkness, circumstance forces the Sounders to form an alliance with the surfriders, a complex species similar to them, who are capable of both kindness and cruelty. In this battle, Suzan, a surfrider, learns about the battle between good and evil that exists in her world. She discovers a covert organization representing good, which has fought a losing battle for the last two decades. Can she—Will she help? This book delves into matters of the heart. Though based on Christian culture, it should never be a replacement for the proper study of the Bible."

Jeffrey Watson has completed his new book, "Jesus and Mary on the Bittersweet Path: 10-Day Walks through the First Christmas and the First Easter": a fascinating work that blends biblical and cultural insight from the first century.
Author Jeffrey Watson is a gifted storyteller, with his skills rooted in frequent trips to the Middle East and his education at Catholic University (MA), Dallas Theological Seminary (DMin), and University of Maryland (Ph.D.). Watson serves as the director of operations for Erickson Senior Living and as adjunct faculty at the University of Maryland (UMBC).
Author Jeffrey Watson writes, "It is commonplace for us to picture Jesus as a thirty-three-year-old at Calvary; after all, His execution took place on April 3, AD 33. The bigger challenge comes with pinpointing His birth year."
He continues, "To guide us on this journey, we discover four things: (1) the Gregorian calendar, our system of "BC-AD" reckoning, doesn't take hold until the late Middle Ages; (2) furthermore, in the Gregorian method, there is no year zero, yielding us only one year between 1 BC and AD 1; (3) King Herod I, Jesus' first persecutor, died in the spring of 4 BC but was alive at Jesus' birth; and (4) Herod interrogates the Magi about (a) the original timing of the star and (b) the exact birthplace of the King (c) before reflexively unleashing a mass murder of Jewish boys, toddler age and down."
Published by Covenant Books of Murrells Inlet, South Carolina, Jeffrey Watson's new book invites readers to walk the bittersweet path, joining Jesus and Mary on that unique journey from the first Christmas through the first Easter.
This captivating work also features stunning artwork by artist Mary Evans.

Dr. Ruth Hayes, who was born in Passaic, New Jersey, on April 5, 1929, has completed her new book "If I Can, You Can": an encouraging and empowering work that follows the author's tumultuous journey through life that was ultimately defined by her perseverance and steadfast faith.
As a young girl, she did something that she was not proud of but felt it was a means to an end. She grew up fast. She dropped out of school, had to get married, had children, and started working. She had to learn to trust and believe in God repeatedly. She had to bring God back into her life as well as her children's life.
Author Dr. Ruth Hayes grew up with her cousins, who at times saw her as their very own sibling. Even as a child, she learned quickly how to adjust to a sense of juvenile independence that would eventually lead her to her destiny.
After many years of settling disappointments and comfortable poverty, it was more than a notion to collect her belongings, her children, and her thoughts then press her way into a life that only the grandest of this world could imagine.
Dr. Hayes earned her Ph.D. from Union Experimenting College and University in Cincinnati, Ohio. She currently works as a grant writer at We Search & Development in Gray, Georgia. She gives God the glory for her well-lived life with all its great adventures and challenges. Her philosophy to all people who struggle with the confidence to stay on the path of their dreams through repetitive challenges remains her daily acclamation: "If I can, you can."
Author Dr. Ruth Hayes begins her work, writing, "God is good all the time, and all the time, God is good. My story is not unique. It's not different. I'm just a woman that knows God will give you anything you need and most of what you want. All you have to do is love, ask, and obey him. I did in the beginning, but I certainly didn't always obey him. I didn't even think about him most of the time. In fact, he was seldom on my mind. I was too busy living the life I thought I wanted. I went to church occasionally, but it was when it was convenient for me and when I wanted to."
Published by Covenant Books of Murrells Inlet, South Carolina, Dr. Ruth Hayes' new book reminds readers that, through God, everything is possible. She encourages readers to trust and believe.
Readers can purchase "If I Can, You Can" at bookstores everywhere, or online at the Apple iTunes store, Amazon or Barnes and Noble.
