What's New
Three new books have just been released on Amazon.com's Kindle Store:
Three A.M. - the definitive lyric anthology for the songs of Allen E. Rizzi. This collection contains 81 song lyrics written between 1974 and 1980, including many not previously released to the public. All song lyrics are accompanied with back scenes that comment on the songs’ origins, performance histories and other interesting facts. Forty years on, these lyrics are a blueprint of a 1970s songwriter craft.
Prescriptions from the Rhyme Doctor - a collection of poetry written by Allen E. Rizzi from 1965 to 2012. The 89 poems in this anthology are divided into two simple phases of life: The Young Man – Years of Hope and The Old Man – Years of Judgment. These phases serve as bookends to the author’s years of successful commercial song writing. The first set of poems was written in the turbulent 1960s and 1970s and each poem reflects those times. The second set can be seen as an epilogue of sorts, commenting on what has become important to the author after 50 years as a writer.
The Horse Whisperers from Anaconda - chronicles the lives of horse whisperer brothers Lee and Edd Allen. Born in Pike County, Missouri and raised in Anaconda, Montana, the two became admired in their youth as they followed the teachings and traditions of their family and Blackfoot Indian friends to help build the American West. Richly illustrated with antique photographs, this novella explores the art of horse whispering as applied to everyday life and the grit that polished America into the gem it is today.
