As Director of Communications and Program Planning for the Rhode Island Department of Elderly Affairs, Larry Grimaldi wrote more than 600 newspaper columns and feature articles growing older. The columns regularly appeared in the state's daily and weekly magazines. After retiring in 2015, he began his second career as a Lifestyle columnist for PrimeTime magazine. Fifty Shades of Life, Love & Laughter contains many of these columns.
This is Larry's first solo publication. He has also co-written Wandering Across America and Cooking with Mammie with his wife Kathy, and edited the Children's Book, The Adventures of Fanny Pack Ray and the Family Vacation, written by his son, Benjamin Grimaldi.
Larry and Kathy, his wife of 50 years, live in North Providence, Rhode Island.
In this large-format illustrated map and guide, author Gary Lachman documents key locations in the homeland to which Aleister Crowley always returned, from his birth in Royal Leamington Spa in 1875 to his death in Hastings in 1947.
The 40-plus entries include Carlisle, where a teenage Crowley slept with a hotel chambermaid and threw his tutor out of a boat; Boleskine, his house on Loch Ness, later owned by Jimmy Page; and numerous London addresses, including residences, pubs, occult shops and even the Café Royal, where he pretended to be invisible and ran out on the bill.
Aleister Crowley: The Beast In Britain offers insight into the life of an intriguing, complex and profoundly flawed character, whose influence reverberates long after his death.
