Review # 1 was written on 2012-06-15 00:00:00 Betsy Dominguez A straightforward (if perhaps a little "basic" at times) and practical guide to alternatives to attending college immediately, including internships, working, the military, service programs like AmeriCorps, international travel, and more. This is a book that almost any high school senior could find useful; in addition to the specific information provided, I particularly liked Fireside's message that there's no "one right path" for success after graduation. However, I think it could have used more coverage of economic issues--can students of modest means afford some of the internships and international travel experiences she discusses?

Review # 2 was written on 2014-04-11 00:00:00 Patrick Gallagher Note: do not read before bed. This astounding collection of NYC crime scene photos were discovered by Sante in a forgotten archive where they were spared the fate of others who were thrown away or dumped into the river when buildings and departments moved. Collected here for you are postmortem photos meticulously curated by Sante, chosen by someone with a strong sense of poetry and reverence for and identification with the anonymous dead. Sante pairs the images with whatever information he could find about the victims depicted, which is scanty at best. Also after the collection he allows himself to speculate about the dead and the America they lived and died in. He draws the reader in by challenging them and acknowledging the exploitation of their gaze, as well as musing on the nature of photography itself. "Through the act of looking, we own these pictures, or, rather, they thrust themselves upon us... to look at these pictures is to glimpse the work of the recording angel on the day of judgement... these pictures are documentary evidence of an end we are afraid to recognize." This is a remarkable thing.
