    Steve Callaghan

    Paperback (It Books, April 26, 2005)
    For the first time ever a cancelled show has been resurrected on the basis of its cult following in syndication, on the internet and on DVD (Over 2.2 million DVDs sold to date!) and we've got the tie–in book authored by one of the show's hilarious lead writers and animators! At first sight, the Griffens may seem like a normal blue collar family from Quonochontaug Rhode Island, but Peter (the family's loutish dad), Brian (the erudite, martini–swilling pet dog) and Stewie (the evil toddler son) set them apart from all others. Now Stewie––a true baby genius and the most popular of the Griffen clan––speaks out. Having been hell bent on achieving world domination ever since he escaped the cursed ovarian Bastille he was incarcerated in for nine grueling months, he has finally decided that in order to rule the world we live in one must first understand it. Herewith are his musings on family, love, parenting, preschool, work, pop culture, politics and more. If only we knew then what Stewie knows now, adults everywhere could have defeated their mother's matriarchal tyranny and toppled the "gynocracy" she ruled over . . .and god knows what else! This book is for the insufferable child in us all, eager to buck the ways of the old guard or just eager for a laugh.
  • Capsized: Jim Nalepka's Epic 119 Day Survival Voyage Aboard the Rose-Noelle

    Steven Callahan

    eBook (New Street Communications, LLC, Nov. 26, 2013)
    Note: This Kindle Edition Has Been Enhanced with Color Photographs Not Included in the Paper Edition"An intriguing tale of personal victories claimed from disaster." - Publishers Weekly"Soulful, emotional ... earnest and engrossing." - KIRKUS"While the suspense, drama, and harrowing adventure of CAPSIZED will no doubt grip any reader, it shouldn’t be missed that Steve Callahan’s book also is about the complexity of the individual and the collective. Callahan shows us disparate people forced to rely upon each other for their mutual survival. In a manner of speaking, it is the id, ego, and super-ego simultaneously at odds and in concert. CAPSIZED may just tell one crew’s story, but it also is the story of the best of human nature eventually winning out in the worst of times." - Adam Braver, author of NOVEMBER 22, 1963 and MISFITIn a superb narrative, NY TIMES bestselling author Callahan chronicles the four-month (April - August 1989) struggle of Jim Nalepka and three other crew (Phil Hofman, John Glennie and Rick Hellriegel) to survive on their capsized trimaran adrift in the the stormy seas of the wintry South Pacific. For shelter, the four huddled together in a dank hull compartment 20 inches high and only as wide as a double-bed. Most of their gear was lost in the same gale that caused them to capsize. They were drenched nearly constantly with frigid seawater, and caught fish and collected rain for sustenance before the wind and current finally carried them to New Zealand's Great Barrier Island.CAPSIZED was originally published with a slightly different title by HarperCollins in 1992. The new edition has been revised (with additional text and illustrations) by Callahan.
