About The Book:  Gil Rushing's life is a mystery, both to the world and to his
own family.  Facing his own mortality, he decides to tell all:  No Alabaster
Box is his story.  The tale is convoluted, his heritage a potent mix of
generations of felonious activity plus variegated racial descent on his
father's side.  His mother is a keeper of the flame of Lettish sun worship and
folklore.  Add to this the strange artifact made by his father that saves Gil's
life and enables him to enter mainstream American commerce and culture, thereby
achieving assimilation into the melting pot that is the reinvented America. is
written in a sound-byte format for our fast-paced lifestyle.

About The Author:  Charles D. Bradley has had three careers in his 66 years-that
of real estate attorney, probation officer in the judicial system, and real
estate broker in the world of New Haven academia.  This wide exposure to all
facets of American life and culture has been a rich-veined mine of human
experience.  Finding the essence of the elusive creation that is the
assimilated American has fascinated him.  No Alabaster Box is the fruit of that
quest.
