On October 17, 1945, Frank's Bake Shop opened in Bangor, Maine. The Soucy family might not have realized just how enduring the business would be-how it would become a cornerstone of the community, how three generations of the family would craft it into a symbol of quality and pride, or how its very name would become synonymous with baking and culinary perfection. Now, to celebrate 70 years in business, the Soucy family tells the fascinating story of the seven decades of hard work, perseverance, success, and steady expansion of Frank's Bake Shop with this collection of photos, along with engaging tales and amusing anecdotes of what happened along the way.

A writer usually has that one project that absolutely defines him. It's his MASTERWORK It's that short story, that novel, that anthology-whatever it is that is his most important writing. It's the project he's worked on for years-maybe all his life. It's what matters most to him. It's his MAGNUM OPUS It's built with all his skills and experience, all his hopes and dreams, all of the many deep facets that make him who he is. It's a TOUR DE FORCE It's the project that, when he's gone, he hopes will represent him forever-that thing that will outlive him, and show others what he felt, what he believed, what he could do... that thing that will tell others that he was here, and who he was. It's his CROWNING ACHIEVEMENT Here is a collection of an entire lifetime of poetry-three books in one volume, representing so much that was so important to the poet. He's gone now, but this collection lives-the poet immortalized. It's Bill R. Moore's LIFE'S TRIUMPH

For centuries, adherents of the world's religions have had plenty of fiction to enjoy. Pick up any holy book, and you'll find an entertaining collection of silly fantasies-yet millions of people believe them and base their entire lives around them. It would be funny if the world weren't run, and constantly imperiled, by these religions-as it has been since man first made up stories to explain the unexplainable. Now comes Atheist Tales, a collection of speculative-fiction stories with themes to appeal to the disbeliever. After all, if the religious folks can have their books of fairy tales, why can't we have a few of our own? Unlike those fairy tales, the stories herein weren't written by primitive cultures, and they aren't intended to run your life. They aren't numbered by chapter and verse, and you don't have to memorize certain passages and ignore the contradictions and absurdities. They don't impart directives from imaginary deities, nor do they instruct on how to punish sinners. And they don't pretend to be true. This is fiction, not lies. But they do entertain, and they do make you think about what could happen to the world if those of us who choose reason and intellect over delusional fanaticism don't combat the insanity and it's allowed to grow even more out of control. Worshiping the authors of these stories is optional, but we don't recommend it.
