Leslie Nielsen

The surprisingly hopeful story of how a straight, nonpromiscuous, everyday girl contracted HIV and how she manages to stay upbeat, inspired, and more positive about life than ever beforeAt nineteen years of age, Marvelyn Brown was lying in a stark white hospital bed at Tennessee Christian Medical Center, feeling hopeless. A former top track and basketball athlete, she was in the best shape of her life, but she was battling a sudden illness in the intensive care unit. Doctors had no idea what was going on. It never occurred to Brown that she might be HIV positive.Having unprotected sex with her Prince Charming had set into swift motion a set of circumstances that not only landed her in the fight of her life, but also alienated her from her community. Rather than give up, however, Brown found a reason to fight and a reason to live.The Naked Truth is an inspirational memoir that shares how an everyday teen refused to give up on herself, even as others would forsake her. More, it's a cautionary tale that every parent, guidance counselor, and young adult should read.

From the bestselling coauthors of Leslie Nielsen's Stupid Little Golf Book comes another book of hilarious and worthless golf wisdom--a parody of the classic golf instruction book, Jack Nicklaus's Golf My Way. There are twenty-five million golfers in North America who buy millions of copies of golf instruction books annually. But until now, all of those books shared one fatal flaw--they were written for the 2,450 golfers who actually play halfway decent golf and just want to get that annoying 79 down to a respectable 72. Now, at last, Leslie Nielsen, the World's Greatest Bad Golfer, has produced a golf instruction book for the 24,997,550 rest of us--the legion of hopeless duffers and terminal hackers who know in their heart of hearts that no matter how much they practice, no matter what new tip they follow, no matter what foolproof method they embrace, they are never going to improve. Covering everything from the Inside-Way-Out Swing to the Magic Move that lets you hit the ball 110 yards with any club in the bag, and lavishly illustrated with photographs of the Master himself, Bad Golf My Way demonstrates Leslie Nielsen's deeply flawed swing style and curious course-playing strategies that have earned him the coveted title, "The Arnold Palmer of Bad Golf."
