For the past 25 years, Henry Rollins has
photographed the most desolate and
inhospitable corners of the Earth, and
his powerful vision has been harnessed
in this photographic essay. Though he is
known for the raw power of his expres-
sion, Rollins has shown that the greatest
statements can be made with the simplest of acts: to bear witness; to be present. This collection is an invitation to do the same. The
book pairs Rollins’ visceral photographs—taken in Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Burma, Cambodia, India, Indonesia, Kuwait, Kyrgyzstan,
Mali, Nepal, North Korea, Northern Ireland, Saudi Arabia, Siberia, Sri Lanka, Thailand, and Vietnam—with writings that provide con-
text and political commentary and thereby magnify the impact of the images. This is a visual testimony of anger, suffering, resilience in
the face of tragedy, and the quiet, stronger forces of healing, solidarity, faith, and joy.
Henry Rollins is an author, actor, speaker, and musician best known for his work with the punk rock groups Black Flag and Rollins
Band. He won a Grammy for the performance of his own book Get in the Van and hosts IFC’s The Henry Rollins Show and his own
weekly radio show on KCRW out of Los Angeles. He founded and runs 2-13-61, a publishing company to release books, CDs, and
DVDs. He lives in Los Angeles.

Cory Doctorow
“We should all hope and trust that our culture has the guts and moxie

One of the internet’s most celebrated hi-tech culture mavens returns
with this second collection of essays and polemics. Discussing complex
topics in an accessible manner, Cory Doctorow shares visions of a
future where artists control their own destinies and where freedom of
expression is tempered with the view that creators need to benefit from
their own creations. From extolling the Etsy marketverse to excoriating
Apple for dumbing-down technology while creating an information
monopoly, each unique piece is brief, witty, and at the cutting edge of
tech. Now a stay-at-home dad as well as an international activist,
Doctorow writes as eloquently about creating internet real-time theater
with his daughter as he does in lambasting the corporations that want
to limit and profit from inherent intellectual freedoms.

Climate-change solutions so crazy

they just might work
Mad Like Tesla

Underdog Inventors and the Relentless Pursuit
of Clean Energy
Tyler Hamilton
• Co-op available
A search for the contemporary Nikola Tesla—considered a mad scien-
tist by his society for predicting global warming more than 100 years
ago—fuels this analysis of climate issues, which introduces thinkers
and inventors who are working to find possible ways out of the ener-
gy crisis. From Louis Michaud, a retired refinery engineer who claims
we can harness the energy of man-made tornadoes, to a professor and
a businessman who are running a company that genetically modifies
algae so it can secrete ethanol naturally, these individuals and their
unorthodox methods are profiled through first-person interviews,
exposing the social, economic, financial, and personal barriers that
prevent them from making an impact with their ideas. The existing
state of green energy technologies, such as solar, wind, biofuels, smart
grid, and energy storage, is also explored, creating a sense of hope
against a backdrop of climate dread.
Tyler Hamilton writes a weekly green energy and technology column
for the Toronto Star and a popular blog called “Clean Break.” He is
the author of Privacy Payoff. He lives in Toronto.

Excerpt:
The individuals and companies profiled in the chapters that follow play a cru-
cial role in our energy future, even if they fail. That’s because, like Tesla, they
still succeed by leading, by taking risks, by pursuing great leaps, and by keeping
open minds when others remain so closed. They stand in contrast to monolithic
corporations with disciplined management cultures and an aversion to disrup-
tive technology. . . . But who are these people? What drives them? What goes
through their mind? Though we see the sensational headlines that briefly shine
a light on their unusual technologies—the so-called 15 minutes of fame—too
often these innovators’ stories and their contributions to the world fade into the
background. The real learning comes out of the journey behind the headline.

sons of friendship and loyalty, this is a heartwarming tale of two
endearing characters and their shared adventure into the unknown.

Poetry, fantasy, and Django Reinhardt are woven into a
fairy tale about solitude and awakening the creative spirit
in this graphic novel. Charlie is a mouse who enjoys his

side of himself and his home. Told with a melancholic and
heartwarming lyricism, this tender story combines pithy
observations with whimsical illustrations to create a simple
yet poignant tale for readers young and old.

An unpredictably absurd and humorous romp
Salvatore Vol. 2:
An Eventful Crossing
Nicolas De Crécy
“I love this book! Near-perfect. I can think of nothing better
than another late night filled with pigs in overalls and bulls
wearing AC/DC T-shirts. As soon as I can pre-order Vol. 2, I’m
on it.” —Whitney Matheson, columnist, USA Today,
on Salvatore Vol. 1: Transports of Love
• Co-op available
• Part of the Salvatore series
Salvatore, the in-demand auto repair mechanic dog, has finally
finished his ultimate mode of transportation and is ready to
venture to the ends of the earth in search of his beloved sweet-
heart. Taking with him his reluctant assistant, a minuscule
human who communicates only through a PC, Salvatore is
headed to Latin America by way of Russia and the Bering
Straits, a route he characterizes as epic, but which is designed
to avoid the seas, of which Salvatore is deadly afraid. Along
the way, he meets a pretty cat named Julie who, as it turns out,
has adopted the missing piglet that Amandine the Sow has
been desperately spending her last penny to find while, unbe-
knownst to her, the rest of her litter is busy in a lucrative
endeavor of bio recycling. Masterfully absurd and scathingly
dark-humored, this new volume of the off-the-wall series is
sure to astonish and amuse ardent graphic novel fans.
Nicolas De Crécy is a comic artist whose work includes Bug

Inner Sanctum
Tales of Mystery Horror Suspense
Ernie Colón
• Co-op available

(September)
Inner Sanctum is one of the most fondly remembered mystery and
horror radio shows from the 1940s, and it is brought to life here with
striking illustrations that re-create four chilling tales. In “The Horla,”
a man is haunted by a mysterious, grotesque being that only he can
see. At first, the being seeks to enslave the man, but it turns out the
being is actually out to destroy him. “Death of a Doll” tells the tale of
a reporter who is investigating the identity and death of an unidenti-
fied female corpse. Throughout his investigation, he carries her doll
with him and, instead of “mama,” the doll continually cries out “Kara
Nana,” another name for the devil. “The Undead” follows a young
woman as she discovers a 10-year-old obituary for her living husband.
Terrified, she goes to his tomb to investigate. The last story in the col-
lection, “Alive in the Grave,” follows a man who may have unwittingly
consigned another man to being buried alive.
Ernie Colón is a comic artist who has worked for such companies
as Broadway Comics, DC, Eclipse, Harvey Publications, Marvel,

All the usual horror suspects are present in this wry comic spoof, the
first four volumes of which are gathered here. When Michael Paris
travels to the remote town of Raven Hollow to check out the plot
of land he has recently inherited, he is shocked to discover that it is
basically a cemetery, and the villagers want it razed because it is pop-
ulated with a whole host of apparently frightening monsters. The
opening issues of this exciting graphic novel series follow Michael on
his encounters with an attractive vampire, a swamp girl, zombies, and
many more creatures, as he finds out which ones are not as evil as
they seem—and which ones are.

Racy and riveting stories
Miss Don’t Touch Me

Complete Set
Hubert and Kerascoet
“It’s hard to imagine a sequential art story better than this in
terms of character development, plotting, realization of settings,
and interconnection between visual and narrative elements. The
coloring alternately provides glowing light and scary shadows in
fine re-creations.” —Booklist
“A more orthodox piquancy infuses Miss Don’t Touch Me, a
charming, Gallic twist on the murder mystery . . . and anything
but prudish.” —Carlo Wolff, Boston Globe
Combining both volumes of the bestselling series, these two tales
take place in 1930s Paris. In the first story, the “Butcher of the
Dances” is on the prowl for young, loose women, and local
dominatrix Agatha suddenly turns up dead. Everyone assumes it
was suicide, but her sister Blanche is convinced that the butcher is
responsible. She decides to take matters into her own hands, and in
her pursuit, she ends up hired into a luxury house of call girls. She
soon becomes adept at certain practices, but she does not lose sight
of her ultimate goal—to find her sister’s killer. In the second volume,
Blanche works to sort out her dissolute mother’s life while falling in
love with a secretly gay client, and their story unfolds in an era
where cranial surgery was considered a “cure” for homosexuality.
Suspenseful and spicy, these narratives feature visual details both
beautiful and hideous, with descriptions and dialogue that are
deceptive in their realism.
Hubert is the author of the Miss Don’t Touch Me series. Kerascoet
is the pseudonym for a husband and wife team who have con-
tributed to the Miss Don’t Touch Me series and the Dungeon series.

Taking a delightful departure from his more common urban-fantasy
settings, this epic tale from acclaimed author Charles de Lint weaves
elements of Celtic and Nordic mythology while bringing sword and
sorcery to the forefront. Summer magic is waning in the Green Isles,
and the evil Icelord is encasing the lands in a permanent frost while
coastal towns are pillaged by snake ships. Mounting one last defense
against the onslaught, a mysterious old wizard instructs his inexperi-
enced apprentice in the art of shape-changing. Mercilessly pursued
by the Icelord’s army, this newfound mage gathers allies—a seeming-

Gathering darkly fantastic short fiction previously available only in
limited editions, this collection explores the mysteries of souls—
whether they are sacrificed on the pinnacle of Mount Parnassus or
lodged in a television cable box. In a Kabbalistic tale of transforma-
tion, the executor of an old friend’s will is almost duped into hous-
ing his soul. In a tale of time travel between 2015 and 1975, a
tragedy sparked by an angel falling onto a pizza shop is reenacted—
and the event is barely, but fatally, altered. The cornerstone of the
collection is a postscript to the harrowing novel of the haunting of
the Romantic poets, The Stress of Her Regard. Once Byron and
Shelley break free of the succubus that claimed them, their associate,
Trelawny, forges an alliance with Greek rebels to reestablish the
deadly connection between man and the nephilim. Fans of Powers’s
renowned secret histories will delight as he deftly weaves an array of
fantastical creatures into richly layered narratives of the past.

Dystopic and comedic, this anthology explores top fiction from
generations of writers and artists who have drawn inspiration from
Franz Kafka’s writings. The stories in this illuminating collection
include Philip Roth’s alternate history in which Kafka survived into
the 1940s and emigrated to America; Jorge Luis Borges’ bizarre
lottery that develops into a mystical system; Carol Emshwiller’s
woman seeking to be accepted as officially male by a society of men;
and Paul Di Filippo’s hero who works as a magazine writer by day
but is a costumed crime fighter by night. Rounding out the excep-
tional lineup is R. Crumb’s humorous work, “A Hunger Artist” from
Kafka for Beginners alongside a new English translation of the story
itself. Each author also responds to the question Why Kafka? and
discusses his writing, its relevance and relation to their own work,
and his enduring legacy.

In a postcyberpunk future, Mia and Zakariah Davis risk their lives to
secure an activated sample of the life-prolonging “eternal virus” for
their son Rix. Afterwards, Mia is murdered in retribution and the fam-
ily is overcome by grief. Zakariah goes on a quest to contact her spirit
in the afterlife while Rix wants revenge, no matter the cost. Niko, the
teenage clone of Zakariah’s dead sister, has received the eternal virus
and has been captured by vampires who drain her blood nightly for its
rejuvenating effects. After Rix helps Niko escape, they team up in a
quest to track down Mia’s murderer. An engaging and compelling
story, this work of science fiction delves into questions of religion,
God, family, and the source of life in our universe.

Carroll, Rucker is a mathematician who not only enjoys paradoxes,
but can propagate that enjoyment as pure lunatic humor.”

with that of a bestselling author, this exclusive compilation is a
must-have for any science fiction enthusiast. Infiltrating fundamen-

specifically the life of Jesus Christ, as it has evolved over the past two

speaks to every Christian who is fed up with a revisionist Christian
doctrine based on banal ideas and who desperately seeks affirmation
that the Christian faith is a much bigger, deeper, and more challenging
institution than churches have ever acknowledged or proclaimed.
According to O’Murchu, Jesus was never an earthly prince, but rather
the first rebel, a countercultural outsider who sought to empower the
oppressed and marginalized while questioning the core beliefs of long-

convictions. Using this portrait of Jesus, each chapter addresses a

Opposing the common exclusion of God from an active role in
human history, this work explains how His role exists and can be
witnessed in humanity’s complicated dualities—in time and space,
war and peace, wealth and poverty, and love and hatred. Arguing
that history is a master plan—that God, who is reason and love,
wills human existence—Dr. Pursell weaves his thesis through both
divine revelation and specific historical events. He explains in acces-
sible terms that God’s plan for human history is that of unity in
opposing forces; that historical periods are secular constructs—

Queen Elizabeth in the Garden

A Story of Love, Rivalry, and Spectacular Gardens

about the Virgin Queen.” —Sunday Times

Martyn’s descriptions of gardens . . . are excellent. . . . In evocative

• Co-op available
Taking a fresh and original approach to the life and reign of Queen
Elizabeth I, this book tells the incredible story of her great passion for
gardens, and how the two most powerful men in England during her
reign fought a decade-long duel for their queen’s affections by creating
lavish gardens for her. It chronicles how, in their quest to woo the
queen and outdo each other, Robert Dudley, Earl of Leicester, and
William Cecil, Baron of Burghley, competed for Elizabeth’s favor by
laying out innovative and extravagant pleasure grounds at their
palaces for when she came to visit. As she played one off against the
other, they created gorgeous palaces and landscapes that amazed the
world. The book also describes how others in England and abroad fol-
lowed Dudley’s and Cecil’s leads and how the queen’s love of plants
made gardeners of courtiers, statesmen, and soldiers. This meticulously
researched account reveals how Elizabeth’s enthusiasm for horticulture
changed the world, encouraging gardeners and designers to create
landscapes inspired by the spirit of the Elizabethan garden.
Trea Martyn completed a PhD in 18th-century literature at University
College London. She has taught garden history at Birkbeck College at
the University of London and landscape history at Central Saint Martin’s
School of Art in London, and she lectures widely on garden history.

hill, which had once been a lookout post. At the summit stood a canvas pavilion deco-
rated with roses and honeysuckle. Lanterns hung at the entrance, and, inside, candles lit
up the walls, which were painted with flowers. From a ceiling painted with the moon,
the stars and clouds, vines dangled baskets of apples, oranges and pears, some covered
with gold leaf. Sweet-smelling herbs lined the floor.
At the back of the pavilion, Queen Elizabeth sat on a throne on a low platform,
beneath a purple canopy embroidered with gold and studded with pearls. She was
dressed in white, black and gold—so was Dudley, who was telling her a story, kneeling
on a velvet cushion. Diamonds sparkled in her hair. She wore a ruby and diamond ring
and ropes of pearls around her neck and wrists. Her ladies-in-waiting sat at her feet.
Like all of her courtiers and servants, they wore black and white (her colours, which she
had adopted as a princess, during her semi-exile from court).
Her host and hostess, Lord and Lady Warwick, stood near by (Warwick was Dudley's
brother). Boys dressed in silk served candied fruits and spices on gold platters. The
guests drank Gascony wine, and music played in the background. To one side, Cecil was
talking to the official who had accompanied him and the Queen on her last scandalous
visit to Kenilworth.

A fascinating insight into daily life during

the Tudor period
All the King’s Cooks

The Tudor Kitchens of King Henry VIII
at Hampton Court Palace
Second edition
Peter Brears
Highlighting the world’s first professional kitchen, this volume showcas-
es the massive galleys at Hampton Court Palace. Illustrating how
kitchens originally built to supply the entire household of King Henry
VIII were run, this guide dispells many of the misconceptions about the
table manners, quality of cooking, and serving of meals in Tudor
England. Authentic recipes—adapted for modern kitchens—from the
period are featured, including Chicken Farced, Smothered Rabbit, and
White Leach. Accentuated with striking visuals, this history revives the
sights, sounds, and smells of the Tudor kitchen while conveying the daily
life of the era’s rich and poor.
Peter Brears is the author of Cooking and Dining in Medieval England,
The Country House Kitchen 1650–1900, and Stuart Cookery. He is an
internationally acclaimed expert on food history as well as a museum
and historic-house consultant. He participated in the restoration of
Hampton Court Palace kitchens and holds cookery demonstrations there
to show how Henry VIII’s meals were prepared.

race in American history

Guenther Reinhardt, Dr. Arnold Hutschnecker,
and the Secret History of the 1960
Kennedy/Nixon Election
David L. Robb
• Co-op available
Combining a detective story with political intrigue, this recollection
delves into the infamous presidential battle between Richard Nixon
and John F. Kennedy—and the lengths to which both parties went to
destroy one another. The history introduces two key personalities: a
manic-depressive private eye named Guenther Reinhardt and Richard
Nixon’s psychoanalyst, Dr. Arnold Hutschnecker. Illustrating how
Reinhardt was hired to destroy the Republican candidate and how he
eventually discovered Nixon was in therapy, the study also details how
Nixon was already plotting to destroy his rival, revealing that the
young and charismatic senator from Massachusetts had his own med-
ical secret. This controversial chronicle features Reinhardt’s full confi-
dential report on Nixon’s treatment as well as Dr. Hutschnecker’s
unpublished memoirs, providing many insights into his “forbidden”
relationship with the former president and Nixon’s own intriguing
psychology. Containing several new photographs that have never been
seen before, this is the shocking true story of secrets kept and secrets
revealed, the men and women who guarded those secrets, and those
who would expose them.

Few real-life private detectives have careened through life
with more adventure, intrigue and misery than Guenther
Reinhardt. By his own account, he’d covered the 1924
treason trial of Adolf Hitler; predicted the Japanese attack
on Pearl Harbor; witnessed the outbreak of the Spanish
Civil War; busted the German-American Bund; inter-
viewed Leon Trotsky’s assassin in a Mexican jail; uncov-

chased Communist and Nazi spies all over Europe and

make a better story—or selling the information he’d gath-

Forthright anecdotes and interviews fill this eye-opening account
of the birth of the underground newspaper movement. Stemming
from frustration with the lack of any mainstream media criticism
of the Vietnam War, the creation of the papers was emboldened by
the victories of the Civil Rights–era, anticolonial movements in the
Third World and the use of LSD. In the four short years from
1965–1969, the subversive press grew from five small newspapers
in five cities in the United States to more than 500 newspapers—
with millions of readers—all over the world. Stories by the people
involved with the production and distribution of the papers, such
as Bill Ayers, Paul Buhle, Paul Krassner, and Trina Robbins, bring
the history of the movement to life. Full-color scans taken from a

An extraordinary memoir from a life-long radical
Love and Struggle

My Life in SDS, the Weather Underground,
and Beyond
David Gilbert
Introduction by Boots Riley
“David’s is a unique and necessary voice forged in the growing
American gulag, the underbelly of the ‘land of the free,’ offering a
focused and unassailable critique as well as a vision of a world that
could be but is not yet—a place of peace and love, joy and justice.”
—Bill Ayers, author, Fugitive Days and Teaching Toward Freedom
“Like many of his contemporaries, David Gilbert gambled his life
on a vision of a more just and generous world. His particular bet
cost him the last three decades in prison, and whether or not you
agree with his youthful decision, you can be the beneficiary of his
years of deep thought, reflection, and analysis on the reality we all
share. If there is any benefit to prison, what some refer to as ‘the
involuntary monastery,’ it may well look like this book. I urge you to
read it.” —Peter Coyote, author, Sleeping Where I Fall
“This book should stimulate learning from our political prisoners,
but more importantly it challenges us to work to free them, and in
doing so take the best of our history forward.” —Susan Rosenberg,
author, An American Radical
Written from the maximum-security prison where he has lived for
almost 30 years, this enlightening memoir chronicles the militant
career of David Gilbert, a radical activist whose incarceration is due
to his involvement in the 1982 Brinks robbery, an attempted expro-
priation that resulted in four deaths. From his entry into the world

Provacative new theories that uncover coinci-

dences, connections, and unexplained details of the
JFK assassination
A Secret Order
Investigating the High Strangeness and
Synchronicity in the JFK Assassination
H. P. Albarelli Jr.
Reporting new and never-before-published information about the
assassination of John F. Kennedy, this investigation dives straight
into the deep end, and seeks to prove the CIA’s involvement in one
of the most controversial topics in American history. Featuring intel-
ligence gathered from CIA agents who reported their involvement in
the assassination, the case is broken wide open while covering unex-
plored ground. Gritty details about the assassination are interlaced
throughout, while primary and secondary players to the murder are
revealed in the in-depth analysis. Although a tremendous amount
has been written in the nearly five decades since the assassination,
there has never been, until now, a publication to explore the aspects
of the case that seemed to defy explanation or logic.
H. P. Albarelli Jr. is an author and reporter who has written for
Counterpunch, the Huffington Post, and Pravda. His 10-year investi-
gation into the death of biochemist Dr. Frank Olson was featured on

Excerpt:
Often overlooked in the chronology of Lee Harvey Oswald’s earthly years is that when he was 13 years old he
lived in New York City for a period of a about eighteen months, in 1952–1954. Astute readers will recognize
these as critical years in the development and operation of the CIA’s MK/ULTRA safe house in the city’s
Greenwich Village operated by Federal Narcotics agent and CIA consultant George Hunter White. The first-floor
safe house was located at the corner of Bedford and Barrow streets (the address was 81 Bedford Street).
According to a 1978 CIA document, “an elusive Frenchman who was engaged in the import-export business”
owned the two-story, brick apartment house, just a short walk away from one of White’s favorite watering holes,
Chumley’s, perhaps a primary reason for its selection. The building that housed the safe house was torn down sev-
eral decades ago. Chumley’s, with all its ambiance and ghosts, is still there today.
Marguerite Oswald, with her son, Lee Harvey, moved to New York City from Texas in August 1952. For their
first several weeks there, Lee and Marguerite lived in a small apartment, located at 325 East 92nd Street. The
cramped unit was shared with Lee’s half-brother, John Edward Pic, his 18-year old wife, and their newborn child.

The life story of one of the most unconventional

politicians in recent history
Ron Paul
Father of the Tea Party
Bradley A. Porter
Although much has been written about his unique brand of poli-
tics, very little has been told about the personal history of Ron
Paul, the man that many credit with being the founder of the
modern Tea Party. From his formative years spent in
Pennsylvania and his early careers as an obstetrician and a U.S.
Air Force flight surgeon to the 12 terms he has served in
Congress, this comprehensive volume reveals all of the experi-
ences that shaped Ron Paul into the politician he is today.
Landmarks in his congressional career, such as his famously lib-
ertarian voting record and his consistent clashes with both
Democrats and Republicans, are covered in detail, while more
recent chapters chronicle Paul’s work with the Tea Party move-
ment, describing its core concepts and how they stem from his
ideals. Unapologetically fascinating, this account of his successes
and failures demonstrates exactly what it took for Ron Paul to
grab the spotlight in American politics.
Bradley A. Porter is a blogger for the Crossed Pond, named one
of the 10 best blogs for political coverage at the 2007 Weblog
awards. He is a former director for the Free Assembly for
Constitutional Thought. He lives in Pittsburgh.

Sitting in the greenroom at CNN in early 2007, Ron Paul waits

patiently as his makeup is refreshed for another interview. Since
forming an exploratory committee in January, getting TV time
had been a challenge, and Paul had adopted a policy of not
turning down a venue, no matter how hostile. The interview he
had done that morning had played to a now-familiar script.
Lacking any more material on Rudy Giuliani or Hillary
Clinton, producers turn to the also-runs to fill airtime.
Invariably, that entails introducing Paul, letting the viewers
know what a longshot he is (always—always—his campaign is
referred to as “quixotic”), and then segueing into a discussion
of his “radical” views. This morning, the anchor immediately
began reading from a list of Paul’s positions with a growing,
theatrical air of disbelief. “You want to abolish the Department
of Education? You would do away with the FDA? You want to
end the War on Drugs? You want to return to the gold stan-
dard?” And, as with every interview, Paul has to patiently make Sample interior photo

Retracing the steps of the first civil rights and whistleblower act of the
21st century, this chronicle follows young, black, MIT-educated social
scientist Marsha Coleman-Adebayo, shortly after she landed her
dream job at the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The
account illustrates how the author attempted to convince the govern-
ment to investigate allegations surrounding a multinational corpora-
tion, suspecting that they were responsible for the deaths of hundreds
of South Africans who were mining vanadium—a vital strategic min-
eral. Documenting Coleman-Adebayo’s shocking discovery that the
EPA itself was the first line of defense for the corporation in question,
this record depicts how the agency stonewalled, prompting the author
to expose them. The agency’s brutal retaliation is captured in detail,
revealing their use of every racist and sexist trick in their playbook,

Taking a stance for immigration, this personal meditation has univer-

and present. As author Ilan Stavans says, immigration is always about
the unexpected; it is a state of constant flux, where things are not
what they appear to be. The author questions whether the American
dream, its symbol of the Statue of Liberty, and the welcoming words
of Emma Lazarus’s sonnet still hold true. At the core of this work is
the question: If the line “Give me your poor, your tired, your huddled
masses yearning to breathe free, the wretched refuse of your teaming

to what extent has that contract been upheld? As America becomes

Gripping stories that contextualize the struggle

against AIDS
Ashamed to Die
Silence, Denial, and the AIDS Epidemic in the South
Andrew J. Skerritt
• Co-op available

and Poz
By focusing on a small town in South Carolina, this study of the
HIV/AIDS crisis in the South reveals the hard truths of an ongoing
and complex issue. Skerritt contends that the United States has failed
to adequately address the threat of HIV and AIDS in communities of
color and that taboos about love, race, and sexuality—combined
with Southern conservatism, white privilege, and black oppression—
continue to create an unacceptable death toll. The heartbreak of
America’s failure comes alive through case studies of individuals such
as Carolyn, a wild child whose rebellion coincided with the advent of
AIDS, and Nita, a young woman searching for love and trapped in
an abusive relationship. The results are most visible at the town’s seg-
regated burial ground where dozens of young black men and women
who have died from AIDS are laid to rest. Not only a call to action
and awareness, this is a true story of how persons of faith, enduring
love, and limitless forgiveness can inspire others by serving as guides
for poor communities facing a public health threat burdened with
conflicting moral and social conventions.
Andrew J. Skerritt is a journalist who has contributed to Asbury

the road that lay ahead. She looked into the casket and saw her immediate future.
LAWRENCE HILL BOOKS NOVEMBER She knelt beside the casket, her arms serving as a pillow for her head. Midway
through the service as the men from Generations Funeral Home stepped forward to
close the casket, Tracy tried to get one last glimpse of her aunt. Then as soon as the
lid was closed, she screamed louder and longer, her voice trailing against the back-
drop of the songs of praise. After they closed the casket she lay on it and wept.
I had first met Tracy eighteen months before. As fate would have it, on Sunday
December 3, 2000, her face graced the front page of the Rock Hill Herald. In the
picture Rev. Patricia Ann Starr was talking to L. Z. Witherspoon, a young man from
the neighborhood. In the background stood Tracy. She wore no makeup. Her lips
were unpainted. Her face was pockmarked with acne. That day, she was playful,
smiling and doting on her aunt. She was slim and healthy looking. The photograph
had been taken a few days earlier on a Friday afternoon as they stood outside in the
front of Tricia Ann’s house. The photograph was for a story about AIDS in their
small town of Clover. Tricia Ann was the focus of the picture and the story. Tracy
was supposed to be a prop, just another face in the group, unconnected to the big
picture. What I didn’t know then was that Tracy was an untold part of the story.
She had been diagnosed with the virus years before; her days were numbered.

The dramatic chronicle of an American journalist

East policy
In the Lion’s Den

An Eyewitness Account of Washington’s Battle
with Syria
Andrew Tabler
• Co-op available
A key player in the Middle East and the site of violent protests in
2011, Syria has long been a thorn in Washington’s side when it
comes to forging peace or rolling back the influence of the Islamic
republic of Iran. But only after the events of 9/11 and Damascus’s
staunch opposition to the war in Iraq did the U.S. government begin
an unannounced campaign to pressure President Bashar al-Assad’s
regime to revamp its regional and domestic policies. The book vivid-
ly captures Tabler’s behind-the-scenes experiences and provides a
firsthand look at 21st-century Syria and Washington’s attempts to
craft a “New Middle East.” Examining the effects of the neoconserv-
atives’ strategy and asking what went wrong and how Washington
can achieve a new relationship with this pivotal Middle Eastern
nation, this investigation provides a rare glimpse into U.S. foreign
policy in the Middle East.
Andrew Tabler is the Next Generation Fellow at the Washington
Institute for Near East Policy, a former fellow of the Washington-
based Institute of Current World Affairs, and a former consultant
for the International Crisis Group. In 2003 he moved to Syria from
Washington and cofounded the country’s first private-sector

martial law was declared in 1963, the morning after the
Ba’ath Party seized power in a military coup. Multiparty
politics in Syria was suspended that day, all in the name of
bringing to an end raging political instability that had
plagued the country since independence in 1946.
A man with gray hair broke from the crowd of demonstra-
tors, arms waving overhead. Scores of student-union protes-
tors were on him like a swarm of bees, shouting “traitor”
while beating him with wooden sticks adorned with Syrian
flags. As I took a photo of the melee, my colleagues Hugh
Macleod and Othaina Sahara sized up the situation, note-
books in hand.
“Come on, let’s go talk to that guy!” Hugh said.
Othaina and I looked at each other. Without saying a
word, we understood that the worst thing that could hap-
pen to this brave man at that moment would be for two for-
eigners to ask him how he felt about being abused and
beaten up. We probably knew the answer anyway.

I Killed Scheherazade
Confessions of an Angry Arab Woman
Joumana Haddad
“In this courageous book Joumana Haddad breaks down the taboo of
the Silent Absent Arab Woman. Scheherazade has to die to be able to
speak her true self, to tell her own story: that is, to become a human
being.” —Elfriede Jelinek,
winner of the 2004 Nobel Prize in Literature
“Joumana Haddad cannot be intimidated. This book is a lesson of
courage for all those who fight to go beyond their own limits and
chains.” —Roberto Saviano, author, Gomorrah
“Sometimes, a revolution erupts when one person says, ‘That—that is
not me.’ Joumana Haddad is a revolutionary, this book is the mani-
festo. Read it or be left behind.” —Rabih Alameddine, author,

had had enough. Haddad angrily challenges prevalent notions of iden-

“When new soldiers swear to support and defend the U.S. Constitution

unlawful orders? About Face provides raw examples of precisely what
soldiers are doing who take their oath seriously.” —Dahr Jamail,

to listen to the firsthand accounts of those who have served on the front

“About Face gives us important insights into the consciences of women
and men who volunteer for the military but find they cannot obey
orders to fight in illegal wars. These are brave and loyal Americans who
are willing to challenge the U.S. government and perhaps go to jail
rather than betray their inner voices that say NO to these wars!”

An open dialogue among activists
Truths Among Us
Conversations on Building a New Culture
Derrick Jensen
“Derrick Jensen is a rare and original voice of sanity in a chaotic
world. He has wisdom and wit, grace and style, and is a wonderful
guide to a good life beautifully lived.” —Howard Zinn, author,

(9781604860450), Mischief in the Forest (9781604860818), and
Resistance Against Empire (9781604860467)
From acclaimed author Derrick Jensen comes a prescient, thought-
provoking collection of interviews with 10 leading writers, philoso-
phers, teachers, and activists who argue against society’s belief that
corporations and governments know what is best for the future,
instead choosing to help acknowledge the values we know in our
hearts are right—and inspire within us the courage to act on them.
Among those who share their wisdom here are acclaimed sociologist
Stanley Aronowitz, who shows that science is but one lens for discov-
ering knowledge; Luis Rodriguez, poet and peacemaker, who suggests
embracing gang members as people instead of stereotypes; Judith
Herman, who offers a deeper understanding of the psychology of
abusers; Paul Stamets, who reveals the power of fungi that is often
ignored; and writer Richard Drinnon, who reminds us that our spiri-
tual paths need not be narrowed by the limiting mythologies of
Western civilization. Reaching toward a common goal of harmony
with the world surrounding us all, these diverse voices articulate dif-
ferent yet shared visions of activism.

of Worthless Words
2,000 Words You Should Stop Using Now!
Dave Dowling

Recognizing the value of concise writing, this quick reference
enables writers to conquer verbiage, strike pointless words and
phrases, and elevate e-mails, essays, memoranda, personal letters,
press releases, and speeches to a new level of clarity. Lists of
delete-worthy words are provided, enabling any writer to avoid
them in advance and prevent their prose from becoming clumsy,
amateurish, and unclear. “Lean” techniques are offered that can
be directly applied to nonfiction, journalistic copy, screenwriting,
and many other disciplines. Highly instructive yet easy to follow,
this is a direct and immediately accessible how-to that illustrates
the importance of pruning each sentence before the final draft.

career to the origins of the quick-release system and Chris
Hoy’s dominance of the Beijing Velodrome, no element is
omitted from this exploration of the bicycle and its faithful
riders. Cyclopedia has all the equipment, the races, and the
faces needed to convert any amateur cyclist into a fully fledged
bike expert.

Let’s Get It On!

The Making of MMA and Its Ultimate Referee
“Big” John McCarthy and Loretta Hunt
Foreword by Bas Rutten
• Advertising on www.sherdog.com (August); www.mmaweekly.com,
www.strikeforce.com (September), and in Fight magazine
(September)
• Author tour to include Las Vegas (September, October)
An intimate profile of the legendary mixed martial arts (MMA)
referee, this first full-length autobiography of pop culture icon
“Big” John McCarthy details every aspect of his life—from his
strong-handed Los Angeles upbringing to his involvement in the
naming of the sport, his role in its regulation, and MMA’s rise in
stature. The narrative follows “Big” John through his 22-year
career as a Los Angeles police officer, where he taught recruits
arrest and control procedures as well as survival tactics, then his
15-year career as the MMA’s premier official in the chain-linked
cage. A fixture of the sport, “Big” John started refereeing at UFC 2
in 1994 when the MMA was in its infancy and went on to offici-
ate at every major UFC event but two until 2007. Following a
one-year hiatus as a color commentator and on-camera analyst for
MMA and boxing events, he returned to MMA refereeing in
2008. In his own words, “Big” John relates his insider’s perspec-
tive from the midst of many of the sport’s greatest moments—
from Tito Ortiz–Ken Shamrock I at UFC 40 in 2002 to Randy
Couture–Tim Sylvia at UFC 68 in March of 2007—along with his
account of the birth of the sport in America, its evolution, and
MMA’s ongoing struggles for acceptance.
“Big” John McCarthy served as an officer with the Los Angeles
Police Department for 22 years and is the world’s preeminent
mixed martial arts (MMA) referee. McCarthy has officiated over
1,500 bouts worldwide since his debut at UFC 2 in 1994 and is
one of the original authors of the sport’s rules and regulations in
the United States. Loretta Hunt is a journalist who has penned
more than 3,000 articles on all aspects of mixed martial arts since
2001. She has written for ESPN.com, SI.com, and the Los Angeles
Times. She is the coauthor of the New York Times best seller
Becoming the Natural: My Life In and Out of the Cage, the mem-
oir of UFC Hall of Famer Randy Couture. Bas Rutten is a former
MMA fighter known as El Guapo, an actor, an author, and a TV
commentator. He is a former UFC heavyweight champion, the
weekly cohost of HDNet’s Inside MMA, and the author of Bas
Rutten’s Big Book of Combat, volumes 1 and 2.

Excerpt:
“After winning the 1995 Yukon Jack Arm Wrestling Championship, I
floated around for a while, trying to figure out what I wanted to do
with my life. One day, some buddies came over to my house with a
tape of the second Ultimate Fighting Championship. I had never seen
the UFC before, but I’d heard crazy stories about brutal fights where
people would break bones and then keep on fighting. I couldn’t under-
stand why anyone would want to do something like that; however,
when I actually sat down and watched the tape, I loved the sport right
away. I was amazed when I saw Remco Pardoel bash the hell out of
Orlando Weit’s head. I was in awe at how Remco was able to almost
crush another man’s skull with devastating elbow shots. Since I was a
known as a tough guy, my friends who figured that I could do it, too.
Soon, they were trying to convince me to fight in the UFC. Of course, I
was with the guys and bravado meant I needed to act tough, so I said,
“Yeah, I can do that. It looks easy.” As I was saying it, however, I was
thinking there was no way I wanted any part of that kind of violence.
The next thing I knew, a phone number plugging UFC merchandise
popped up on the screen. Right away my friends decided to call the
number, not expecting anyone to actually pick up the line. Surprisingly,
someone did.
‘We don t want to buy anything . . . We’ve got somebody here who
can fight!’”

also the life of a gay man in a straight world, this tragic memoir is

rising through the ranks to the top of the professional wrestling

Excerpt:
“As my three-month stint in Wallingford neared its end, I kept thinking of the WWF building and what I’d
given up. Was there a reason I had to pass that building every weekend? It like more than a coincidence. It
almost seemed like destiny.
That week I’d watched a film alone, something Jim had recommended to me — Glengarry Glen Ross, based
on the play by the great David Mamet. In it, Al Pacino’s character reminds his co-workers of his philosophy
on life: “When you die,” he says, “you’ll regret the things you didn’t do.”
I started wondering if I’d made a mistake. I started thinking I might need to try wrestling again. One thing
was certain: The next Friday evening when I passed that WWF building, I had to stop and look around.
Call it curiosity or karma, but I felt like I needed to do it to survive. I got off the exit and pulled around
to the front. It looked to be about eight or nine stories, made of black glass, with the huge yellow WWF
logo near the top. That’s what caught your eye from the interstate. That WWF glowed to me, calling out
like a siren.”

Going beyond the standard workout for boxers, this innovative
manual introduces a diverse set of training methods, integrating
them into drill sets that build the athletic attributes for which past

ring bouts with a body belt and Kosta Tszyu’s creative tennis-ball
and head-strap punching apparatus, this guide highlights a wide
vocabulary of exercises, all incorporating boxing-specific equip-
ment. The drills can be performed solo or with a partner, and each
piece of equipment is approached individually with detailed descrip-
tions of routines, including floor exercises and drills with the heavy
bag, medicine ball, horizontal rope, and jump rope. With two work-
out menus for weight training, this guide guarantees a regime to suit
any individual need—be it professional or simply a desire to train
like some of the best athletes in the world.

acknowledges modern advances in photographic technolo-
gy and discusses how to produce these dazzling retro
effects using both digital and traditional film cameras.
Throughout the book, lighting diagrams showing the pho-
tograph’s setup accompany nearly every image, carefully
illustrating the lighting techniques for easy re-creation.

The Female Figure in Shadow and Light
Maureen Johnson and Douglas Johnson
• Co-op available
• Advertising in Artist’s Magazine
• Authors’ previous titles sold more than 35,000 copies
Whether trying a new technique, getting in some practice time,
or working on a finished piece, this figure study enables artists to
create their choice of model, pose, and view whenever and wher-
ever they’d like. The latest addition to the series will help artists
become proficient in incorporating chiaroscuro or light and dark
lighting—a technique used by the great masters to produce
drama and depth in their paintings—to define the human form.
The book incorporates a new layout featuring two primary
views per pose as well as a section of close-up faces, while addi-
tional expressions and body details such as the face, hands, and
feet are shown in even greater detail on the DVD-ROM. With the
book, artists can study 95 poses in strong unidirectional lighting
and observe the female form through more than 200 printed
photos. Varieties of body types—ranging from thin to plus-size—
and ethnicities are included. Poses have been carefully chosen to
illustrate important effects such as foreshortening and perspec-
tive changes. With this guide, artists can achieve longer drawing
sessions than they could when drawing from a model directly.
While viewing from many angles and at their own pace is often
impossible for artists in a studio session, it becomes as easy as
putting in the disc and opening any photo. A judicious amount
of photo retouching is done—not to make the models more
glamorous or plastic but to remove distractions that detract from
the models’ essence. The PC/Mac-compatible DVD-ROM includ-

ed in the book features more than 2,500 high-resolution JPEG
photos providing a number of viewing options—on a computer
screen, printed out, projected for a group, or via a high-defini-
tion television. Each angle of every pose may also be enlarged,
enabling artists to zoom in on specific body parts to achieve a
higher level of detail.

Watercolour Flowers
Fiona Peart
Appealing to amateur artists, decorators, and designers alike,
each project in this collection of botanical still life by Charles
Rennie Mackintosh captures the delicate balance and grace of
his finest paintings. A principal figure of Art Nouveau design,
Mackintosh spent many years studying the color and form of
flowers, resulting in such signature works as Anemones
(1916), Larkspur (1914), and Anemone & Pasque (1915), each
included here and accompanied by Fiona Peart’s reassuring
step-by-step instructions. Adding to the three Mackintosh orig-
nals are two works of creative interpretation by the author
herself, with instruction on how artists can apply the Art
Nouveau style and pallet to their own original works. Each
project is accompanied by pull-out tracing paper that easily
transfers each still life onto watercolor paper—artists need
only a soft graphite pencil and a rubbing tool to achieve the
transfers—eliminating the time and trial of freehand drawing.
Additional chapters include a brief biography of the artist, as
well as a materials guide for buying paint, paper, and brushes.

Sound advice for becoming the “It” zombie
Zombie Eye for the Living Guy

Look Undead, Cook Undead, Dress Undead,
& Live Undead
Alexander Colby
• Co-op available
• Author tour to include New York (January); Rhode Island (February),
Chicago and Milwaukee (March), and Portland and Seattle (April)
Highlighting the undeniable charisma of the walking dead, this out-
rageous self-help guide explores the myth of the zombie sex appeal,
investigating what makes these tattered, brain-ravenous creatures so
alluring. Advice from an actual “zombie whisperer” promises to
release the average guy’s inner undead in one week, teaching him
how to dress, groom, exercise, eat, date, decorate, and shamble just
like a real zombie, truly living the lifestyle that his friends will envy
and admire. Acknowledging that one’s family may not understand
the repulsive diet, tattered clothes, or foul odors, these pointers con-
tend that sacrifices for popularity and seductiveness are all part of
the program. Whether preparing for the zombie apocalypse, blend-
ing in after the devastation, or finding a whole other level of charm,
this guide contains the essentials for acquiring that debonair, decom-
posing chic and mystique.

All things werewolf from the shape-

shifter authority
The Werewolf Book

Second edition
Brad Steiger
“Brad Steiger’s magnum opus, a labor of deep scholarship
elegantly written. As a reference source, it is invaluable for
anyone interested in pursuing the werewolf.”
—Ancient American magazine
• Co-op available
With 250 entries, this updated filmography and resource
is the encyclopedic guide to all things lycanthropic and a
fascinating compendium of comparative mythology and
folklore. Delving into the 15th century to uncover the ori-
gins of the werewolf legend, it is an eye-opening, blood-
pounding tour through the ages, landing on the doorstep
of creatures like hirsute mass-murderer Charles Manson,
canine-directed Son of Sam, and cannibalistic serial killer
Jeffrey Dahmer.The photos and drawings provide hair-
raising evidence of strange and obsessional behavior
through the centuries, and a helpful chronology of lycan-
thropic activities dates back 140,000 years to the first
mixing of human and lupine blood. Werewolf hunters of
all ages will appreciate the detailed section on slaying the
beast, while potential victims will find the information on
detecting and warding away the occasional wayward
wolfman more to their immediate liking—if not need.
Brad Steiger has been devoted to exploring and examining
unusual, hidden, secret, and otherwise strange occurrences
for two decades. He is the author of numerous articles and
more than 150 books on paranormal theme. He lives in
Ventura, Iowa.

Private investigator Jake Helman has battled a demon, his minions, the
walking dead, and beings from the dimensions of the Sphere of Light
and the Dark Realm, but now he faces the greatest evil the world has
ever known in the third installment of this loosely knit trilogy. Jake is
hired by the wife of New York City mayor Myron Madigan to prove his
infidelity. Meanwhile, the ex-girlfriend of his old partner Edgar needs
Jake’s help when her son joins a cult that worships space aliens. And
Jake’s late wife, Sheryl, now an “agent of Light,” asks him to locate a
monster called the Destroyer of Souls—who may be responsible for the
disappearance of the Biblical entity known as Abel. The investigation of
Madigan leads to Karlin Reichard, a wealthy industrialist and political
kingmaker—head of a cabal that has secretly manipulated world affairs
for generations. In order to bring these men down, Jake must join them.
With earthly and otherworldly forces marshaled against him, Jake bat-

An illustrated retelling of a Depression-

The Day of the Locust

A Martos Graphic Production
Nathanael West
Illustrations by Martos
In this new visual interpretation of Nathanael West’s
classic tale, renowned as one of the most penetrating
novels ever written about Hollywood, sinister black-
and-white illustrations bring the text to life. The Day of
the Locust is a dark comedic fable of morality and des-
peration, set in the center of the American film industry
during the Great Depression. Regarded as a cult classic,
this novel reveals West’s gift for striking insight and his
darkly humorous prose. The stark, startling depictions
of the milieu and the characters give new life to this
story, which gets to the heart of a society of alienated
individuals who have come to Hollywood in the hopes
of fulfilling their dreams.
Nathanael West was a gifted, high-strung novelist and
screenwriter who became one of the voices of his gener-
ation. He is famous for two masterpieces: The Day of
the Locust and Miss Lonelyhearts. Martos is a figura-
tive painter who has exhibited in galleries in San Juan
and New York. He lives in San Juan, Puerto Rico.

Death at Christy Burke’s

A Mystery
Anne Emery
• Co-op available
When spray-painted graffiti appears on the wall of Christy Burke’s
pub indicating that there’s a killer on the premises, his grandson,
Father Brennan Burke, is asked to investigate the vandalism. Though
not at all keen on probing into the lives of the bar’s clientele, he has
little choice once a body is found on the property. Issuing orders
from a cell in Mountjoy Prison, the pub’s current owner wants the
problem solved without the police anywhere near his building.
Assisted by his pal Monty Collins and fellow priest Michael
O’Flaherty, Brennan begins to uncover dark secrets worth killing for
in the lives of the pub regulars. In addition to the events surrounding
the pub, Brennan’s murder investigation becomes overshadowed by
ominous events in Belfast that may soon come home to roost in
Dublin. Sinister figures are spotted in and around the pub, people
are being followed in the street, and Brennan comes to possess
explosive information that he cannot reveal to security forces. The
situation compels him to take a hard look at Irish history and his
family’s place in it, and he can’t shake the feeling that an act of vio-
lence in Northern Ireland is about to be avenged soon—and very
close to home.

When poker players at a major, televised tournament begin turning
up strangled in their hotel rooms, cop Clare Vengel must once again
go undercover to befriend the suspects and find the killer in their
midst. Though Clare hates her shallow cover character Tiffany, a
trust-fund princess who thinks the poker tour is a better idea than
college, posing helps her infiltrate the inner circle quickly. Her flashy
new wardrobe also attracts the attentions of Noah, a dark stranger
who’s at the game for hidden reasons of his own. With her handlers
doubting her every move, everyone she meets lying for a living, and
more victims losing their lives, Clare feels the pressure and questions
whether she should pack it in and go home to a dull life as a beat
cop or stick it out to find the killer and prove her worth.

“Nah, I don’t got aces,” the old man said, meaning Maybe I do, maybe I don’t.
Clare tried to find a clue on his face. Deep lines made his skin look more like leather
than anything human. The eyes, of course, were blank.
“Raise.” Clare shoved some chips in forcefully. What she meant was Please fold.
“Re-raise you all in.” The man touched the rim of his cowboy hat. A real tell, or a
fake one? And how was Clare supposed to single out a killer in a room full of profes-
sional bluffers? “Go home, kid,” the old man said, meaning, You’re out of your

The High, a band with a few hit songs in the late 1970s, have

and even more worthwhile than ever. In this fourth installment of

gritty underworld of casinos, as they rob the loan sharks and drug
dealers who work at every stop of the tour. After finding their old
manager who had swindled millions from them years ago, Barry
and Cliff decide to go for the big score and get it all back—and
more. But when the Saints of Hell, the notoriously dangerous
motorcycle gang, get involved, all bets are off.

Transferred to 53 Division—known as the “Sleepy Hollow of
Toronto”—after the murder of his partner, officer Jack Warren yearns
to return to 51 Division, where his former colleagues are busy pursu-
ing a criminal mastermind. Randall Kayne has been committing vio-
lent, bloody crimes that are hitting close to home in 51 Division, yet
he manages to stay just one step ahead of the police. Although Jack’s
wife wants him to leave the force entirely, an old enemy soon drags
him into the Kayne case against his will, forcing a confrontation with
Kayne that only one of them can survive. Masterfully entering into the
hearts and minds of the cops of 51 Division, the second book in this
exciting series propels Jack Warren deeper into the dangers of under-
ground Toronto.

Excerpt:
“Officers Warren and Armsman? 5106, 1100 for lunch. Good to have you back on the platoon, Jack.” Sergeant Johanson looked up
from his parade sheet and gave Jack a brief smile. For the greyhaired, stoic supervisor, it was a gushing display of emotion.
A few other people echoed the sergeant’s sentiments but briefly and quietly. The new staff sergeant did not take to unnecessary talking
on parade. He glanced from his memo book at the unruly outburst but let it slide.
Too busy with his freaking notes. The man actually took notes about parade. Jack had never seen a supervisor, of any rank, make an
entry about parade other than to say when it started and maybe when it ended. And the staff had spent long enough inspecting every-
one. Jack hadn’t been given such a thorough going-over since his days at the police college down in Aylmer. Greene had done a sock
check to make sure everyone was wearing black socks. A freaking sock check! Several officers, including Jack—no grace period for the
platoon’s new addition—had been cautioned about the length of their hair. Jack wouldn’t have been surprised if the old bastard had
taken out a ruler to measure the gap between hairline and collar.
Jack wondered when the basement room at 51 had last seen a stand-up parade. Its old, tired appearance certainly didn’t correspond
with such formality. The once-white paint was a faded and dreary ivory. A feeble light grimed through the dirt-grey windows set high in
one wall. The metal tables, in rows beneath the windows, were as battle weary and worn out as the assortment of salvaged chairs. No,
formality did not belong here. Jack was surprised when the platoon was allowed to sit as Johanson read out the day’s assignments and
alerts. Greene seemed like the kind of prick who would keep everyone standing.

Rose Cottage

“For the frazzled Anglophile, the countryside-enamored reader, here’s
a bit of romance, light mystery, and the reassuring stability of a time-
less English village—in short, another Stewart comforter . . . .
Soothing as a warm brew on a cold night are Stewart’s satisfying
denouements—and environs.” —Kirkus Reviews

Rose Cottage, a tiny thatched dwelling in an idyllic English country
setting, would appear the picture of tranquility to any passersby. But
when Kate Herrick returns to her childhood home to retrieve some
family papers in the summer of 1947, she uncovers a web of intrigue
as tangled as the rambling roses in its garden. The papers are missing.
The village is alive with gossip. Did her elderly neighbors, suspected
of being witches, really see nighttime prowlers and ghosts in the cot-
tage garden? Kate’s search for the truth brings her together with many
childhood friends and neighbors and leads her down a trail of family
bitterness, jealousy, and revenge. She ends up discovering a long-hid-
den secret that will change her life dramatically—along with romance
in a place she least expects. First published in 1997 and a major best-
seller, Rose Cottage is, to date, the last and most mature novel from
one of Britain’s greatest writers.
Mary Stewart is the author of 20 novels, including the Merlin trilogy,

another young glory-seeker, in a bid to wreck Bonaparte’s plans for
the invasion of Italy. Amidst the chaos of war, Peake has his own
private agenda to find his lost love; but as the fighting spreads from
the mountains to the sea, he discovers that glory comes at a higher
price than he originally thought.

low tide they would be mostly mud. But Warren had anticipated these
problems and had the solutions to hand.
“I am assured the batteries look more impressive on the chart than
they are in reality. The guns are old and have not been fired in anger
for many years. You should be able to silence them easily enough with
your 18-pounders.”
“But I cannot take the Unicorn into the Gulf, sir, not with

raised a mocking brow, “if you have no objection to the commission.”
Nathan ran his eye once more across the chart. A labyrinth of small
islands, mud banks and creeks, beset by perverse currents and washed
by wayward tides. And no clear idea of what force the enemy could
muster against him or of what help to expect from the Chouans,
if any.
He inclined his head in a polite bow. “No objection at all, sir. Indeed,
I thank you for giving me the honour.”

Excerpt:
I’m standing beside a filing cabinet. To my right is the actor Charles Cioffi, and to his right
is Ken Camroux, the actor playing the Senior FBI Agent, the part I read for and didn’t get.
I got this weird part with no lines. All I do is smoke. On the other side of the desk is a
young unknown actress with red hair. We are doing a low budget pilot for an obscure sci-
ence fiction show about alien abduction, if you can believe it. Well, a gig is a gig. I’m get-
ting paid. Scale, I think.
I’m feeling pretty dumb, just standing there like a statue listening to the red-haired actress
talk about someone called “Spooky Mulder.” I look at the cabinet beside me, the top just
below my shoulder. I think, ‘If this were really me would I stand here as if I were part of
the scenery?’ which of course I was. What’s to lose, I think. So I stretch my elbow across
the top of the cabinet, cross my feet, and watch the action from this new position, a pray-
ing mantis with a cigarette. An icon was born. You can buy the trading card if you want.
At that moment my career went up in smoke. Well, perhaps it had been smouldering for
some time. Once a boy wonder, I had failed in my major ambition. I was not the Artistic
Director of the Stratford Festival at the age of twenty-nine, unlike my idol, Peter Hall, who
headed the Royal Shakespeare Company in the UK at that age. Still, always torn between
directing and teaching, I was getting along, making a good living, until that fateful day
when everything changed.

from wormwood, a potent psychedelic. Long favoured by Goths
for its elegant preparation ritual and associations with madness,
death and decadent creative types (Poe, Baudelaire, Wilde, etc.).
Popularized in the 1990s after appearing in the Nine Inch Nails
video for “The Perfect Drug” and Poppy Z. Brite’s novel Lost

melodramatic Goth persona of high school student Todd
Henderson, who worked a mundane day job at Cinnabon and
tried to avoid beatings by his jock brother. Sporting cliché white
face make-up, black clothing and backcombed hair, he spoke in
a high-pitched voice, often screeched like a cat and signed off

An Illustrated History of 1970s Pop Culture

Proving that no other era packs the punch of the 1970s, this recol-
lection captures the smiley-faced, day-glo-drenched decade that
brought The Brady Bunch, The Partridge Family, Peter Frampton,
and “Fonzie” to the forefront of pop culture. The chapters conduct a
behind-the-scenes tour, capturing everything that made the era of
punk, disco, and heavy metal so memorable—from mood rings and
sea monkeys to the most celebrated television shows, movies, and
music. Answering questions such as Who created the Pet Rock? and
Did someone really “invent” the smiley face? this fabulous compila-
tion of facts, figures, and trivia revives treasured memories of eight-
track tapes and lava lamps.

Excerpt:
The Smiley Face
It started in 1958. New York City radio station WMCA inadvertently forecast what would become the definitive icon of the 1970s: the
smiley face. The station ran a contest for the most popular radio show at the time, Cousin Brucie. Any listener who answered their phone
by saying “WMCA Good Guys!” received a “Good Guys!” sweatshirt that featured a smiley face in its design.
Then there was art director Harvey Ball who, in 1963, created a similar design for State Mutual Life Assurance, a Worcester, Massachusetts
insurance firm. The bright yellow circle with the black eyes and mouth was part of the company’s “Friendship” campaign, whereby State
Mutual handed out 100 smiley face pins to employees. The concept was to get employees to smile while using the phone and doing other
tasks (a merger had put a crimp in company morale).
The idea, which reportedly took Ball just ten minutes to create, caught fire. However, he never applied for a trademark or copyright of the
smiley face and earned just $45 for his work. Ball, who died in 2001, is remembered for the idea near where he lived in Massachusetts;
part of the land where he lived is called the Harvey Ball Conservation Area, and it’s here that you’ll find the Smiley Face Trail.
So just how did the Smiley Face become the symbol of the 70s?
In September 1970, two enterprising brothers, Murray and Bernard Spain, had an idea. They were in the business of making faddish items,
so they drew up a smiley face and added the words “Have a nice day.” Next, they copyrighted both the smiley face image and the accompa-
nying slogan—and the rest is pop culture history. Soon they were cranking out buttons, t-shirts, coffee mugs, posters, greeting cards, ear-
rings, bracelets, key chains, and more trash and trinkets that you could shake a mood ring at.
The craze lasted about a year and half, and then it was over. The smiley face left almost as quickly as it had arrived, leaving behind a
dull sense of bland positive energy—and about 50 million buttons.

Treat Me Like Dirt

An Oral History of Punk in Toronto
and Beyond 1977–1981
Liz Worth
Edited by Gary Pig Gold
• Co-op available
This gritty chronicle illustrates the emergence of punk rock in
Toronto for the first time. The visionary bands that brought the
original scene to life—and who still maintain loyal fans across
North America—are documented in detail, from the Diodes,
Viletones, and Teenage Head to the B-Girls, Forgotten Rebels,
Johnny & the G-Rays, and more. Full of chaos, betrayal, failure,
success, and pure rock ’n’ roll energy, this layered history is assem-
bled from interviews with those now recognized as innovators, pio-
neers, and outright legends in their genre. Their accounts go beyond
run-of-the-mill anecdotes, venturing into the uncharted territory of
sex, drugs, murder, conspiracy, violence, criminals, and biker gangs.
Bold and brazen, this compilation also includes a wealth of previ-
ously unpublished photographs as well as one of the last interviews
with the late Frankie Venom, lead singer of Teenage Head.
Liz Worth is the author of Eleven: Eleven. She has contributed to

The Fab Four’s formative years in the

heart of Germany
The Beatles in Hamburg

The Stories, the Scene
and How It All Began
Spencer Leigh
“As a native Liverpudlian who discovered rock ’n’
roll at the same time as the Fabs, Leigh can write
about the city and its music scene with an authori-
ty other authors lack.” —Gillian Gaar, Goldmine,
on Twist and Shout!
“Essential for anyone fascinated with what made

“An unsentimental, unpretentious account of
Buddy’s life. . . . Everyday smashes through the

Paying tribute to the city that helped cast the spot-
light on a legendary band, this rock biography
travels back in time to the summer of 1960, when
the Beatles left Liverpool for Hamburg. The
account follows their evolution from little more than enthusiastic amateurs to the seasoned professionals they became after playing
the German metropolis, landing their first recording contract, and attracting Brian Epstein’s interest with their single, “My Bonnie.”
Documenting how the St. Pauli area molded the Fab Four’s musicianship and stage act, this recollection also reveals how Hamburg
lent a hand in fashioning their image, illustrating how their trademark collarless jackets and mop-top haircuts were cultivated in the
late-night clubs of the infamous, neon-lit district. The atmosphere of the remarkable German city is evoked, capturing the nascent cul-
tural revolution that was to explode into the “Swinging Sixties.” Containing exclusive interviews with musicians, club managers, and
audience members as well as fans, friends, and family, this definitive account also features rare photographs and archive memorabilia,
reflecting on the crucial early years of the world’s most influential rock ’n’ roll band—and of the city that catapulted them into inter-
national stardom.
Spencer Leigh was born in Liverpool, the birthplace of the Beatles. His program, “On the Beat,” has been broadcast on BBC Radio
Merseyside for more than 25 years, and he has contributed to several BBC music documentaries. He is the author of The Cavern: The
Most Famous Club in the World, Everyday: Getting Closer to Buddy Holly, Tomorrow Never Knows: The Beatles on Record, and

Looking at Contemporary Dance

A Guide for the Internet Age
Marc Raymond Strauss and Myron Howard Nadel
With a focus on dance innovation from the late 19th century to the
present, this history provides dance students with accessible infor-
mation on the major contributors to the art. Organized chronologi-
cally by the decades in which innovators were born or dance
organizations were founded, the study shows the similarities and
generational character that arise from shared influence. Rather than
illustrations or photographs, this modern guide offers links to
YouTube videos and other internet references to view examples of
the work discussed. The scope is international, with coverage of
German, Swedish, Belgian, Dutch, Taiwanese, Russian, Finnish, and
Spanish pioneers of the avant-garde to illustrate that dance is a
global language that continues to break boundaries and explore new
ideas. Just a few of the 120 artists and performers featured include
Martha Graham, Doris Humphrey, George Balanchine, Mark
Morris, Twyla Tharp, Merce Cunningham, Paul Taylor, Jose Limon,
Katherine Dunham, Chunky Move, and Trey McIntyre.
Marc Raymond Strauss is a professor of dance at Southeast
Missouri State University. He received an MFA in dance education
and choreography from Smith College and a PhD in dance and
related arts from Texas Woman’s University. He lives in Jackson,

those with autism
Riding on the Autism Spectrum

The Miracle of Equine-Assisted Therapy
Claudine Pelletier-Milet
Foreword by Catherine Mathelin-Vanier
Taking on a group of developmental disorders whose prevalence
rate is increasing each year, the ideas in this book show those with
autism to gradually open up within a joyful and relaxed atmos-
phere. The study draws from a strong knowledge base of equine
training, child psychoanalysis, and clinical psychology, contending
that certain animals—specifically horses—have a way of communi-
cating with individuals on the autism spectrum. The process of
learning to ride is presented as a unique educational system, invit-
ing the autistic individual to discover new sensations, gain a sense
of independence, and learn to control their emotions and fears.
Addressing the emotional needs of family and friends of those with
autism, this emboldening guide encourages those on the spectrum
to look up, speak out, and become stronger in mind and spirit.

educator who specializes in equitherapeutic riding for toddlers.

Excerpt:
Autistic children are hypersensitive and interpret anything unfamiliar as intrusive. As they become more confident however, they gradu-
ally learn to accept new surroundings and challenges, but if this process is in any way violent or more than they can take, they regress
into repetitive movements and “self-stimulation” in order to assure themselves of their existence. The riding ring is an enclosed space
with clearly defined limits in which the horses provide something that is entirely stable, unthreatening and composed of pleasant rituals
which help to achieve this difficult transition.
The riding activities begin with smells and contact, subsequently taking on visual and auditory impressions. As soon as I think the
moment is right, I talk about what is happening and put into words what I think is going on in their minds. We take stock together of
the place we are in, the objects that are scattered about and the actions we perform. We notice the noises that surround us: for instance
we hear a pony neighing and we look at it together; a tractor passes by with a load of hay for the horses so we follow it with our eyes –
and our ears. We might even remark on the smell of the exhaust.
The familiarity and confidence inspired by sitting securely in the saddle on a well-trained pony or horse is another fundamental element
in providing the autistic child with a feeling of security that is so strong that he can open his defenses against the “outside” world. I
think that the normal reaction of an autistic child to the world around him is a primitive one of self-preservation and that the quality of
this instinct is close to that of horses. This is perhaps the reason that communication is so easily forged between the child and the pony.
The pony understands and absorbs the child’s anxiety; the child responds by adopting very quickly a good seat and showing the pony
that he at ease.
I find this is a spontaneous form of communication that takes place without any verbal instruction and quickly extends the autistic
child’s area that he so jealously protects, to include the pony. People with autism are reluctant to relinquish their area of security, so
each stage in their progress has to be lived through with patience. The horse or pony with its endless patience and understanding is the
perfect ally.

Presents an exciting new equine sport that

does not involve riding
The Horse Agility

Handbook
A Step-By-Step Introduction to the Sport
Vanessa Bee
All aspects of competing in equine agility are reviewed in
this handler’s guide, including explanations of the basics
of the horse itself, the reasoning behind their behavior,
and getting and maintaining their attention before train-
ing. Respecting the animal but keeping safety in mind at
all times, the appropriate attitudes for both horse and
teacher are discussed along with maintaining the appro-
priate level of patience. Covering the safe construction
and negotiation of obstacles, this all-inclusive handbook
also demonstrates how to use imagination to develop the
scope of even the simplest structure. Methods for safely
approaching the horse to catch and lead it are presented
as well as how to look for signs of compliance and
acceptance, encouraging the horse to see the handler as
an efficient leader. With an outline of competitive levels,
tips on organizing competitions and training days, and a
troubleshooting section, this study also features helpful
case studies of real life situations.
Vanessa Bee is a professional horse handler who teaches
safe handling, ground skills, and horse agility to equine
students, wardens, equine clubs, and all equine staff, vol-
unteers, and inspectors for Ireland’s Society for the
Prevention of Cruelty to Animals.

Spiritual Hunger
Integrating Myth and Ritual into Daily Life

“Allan Hunter gets to the heart of personal transformation in this
timely and groundbreaking guide to personal authenticity and living
a life in accord with the energies of the universe.”
—Julie Clayton, New Consciousness Review
• Co-op available
From daily activities such as work and eating to milestones such as
graduation and marriage, this discussion debates the myths that
guide lifestyles and questions why they exist in the first place. Each
belief is broken down and examined in terms of how it works,
exposing its true nature so that its value and necessity in culture as
well as the way it operates can be determined. This unique self-help
guide demonstrates how to reinvent old, outdated rituals; get rid of
those rites that are entirely ineffective; and create new habits that
provide a deeper meaning to everyday life. A gateway to finding a
better understanding of what contributes to healthier relationships,
this guide to rituals paves the way to sustaining a fulfilling and
happy life.

Excerpt:
Every human situation you live through is unique to your life, but every human action has been seen before in its general outlines. If we
make the mistake of thinking our experience is unique, then we cannot learn from what others have seen and done before us. But if we
accept that our life path is one others have been on, then we can ask literature, myth and ritual for guidance, since that is exactly why
these stories were written down. They were created to let us know that we are not alone, that others have been this way before…
This movement toward a better society, however, is under threat because the very understandings that allowed for growing cohesion
have been eroded recently. They’ve been undercut by those who cannot see any value in belonging to a society of more than one. Their
lives are just for them; there is no sense of the mythic richness of being alive. They have no “story” to connect them to their culture,
and so they have no sense of ritual; they have no awareness of history, merely of isolated occurrences. If events are simply random, if
other people are just objects to be networked with, then how can the person have any higher levels of awareness? These people cannot
find any deep significance in their lives, so they grab what they can of the material world and of physical gratification. This is the sad-
dest aspect of modern isolation.
The consciousness that we are living a mythic life, where right and wrong actions have significance, and where we are all linked, is the
best response to this mindset. We can choose to see ourselves as part of a meaningful whole, where our actions matter. In the process,
we grow our courage to live well.

Sweet Invention
A History of Dessert
Michael Krondl
• Co-op available
• Advertising in Booklist and Gastronomica
A social, cultural, and—above all—culinary history of dessert, Sweet
Invention explores the world’s great dessert traditions, from ancient
India to 21st-century Indiana. Each chapter begins with author
Michael Krondl tasting and analyzing an icon of dessert, such as
baklava from the Middle East or macarons from France, and then
combines extensive scholarship with a lively writing style to spin an
ancient tale of some of the world’s favorite treats and their creators.
From the sweet makers of Persia who gave us the first donuts to the
sugar sculptors of Renaissance Italy whose creativity gave rise to the
modern-day wedding cake, this authoritative read clears up numer-
ous misconceptions about the origins of various desserts, while eluci-
dating their social, political, religious—and even sexual—uses
through the ages.
Michael Krondl is a food historian and the author of Around the
American Table, The Great Little Pumpkin Cookbook, and The Taste
of Conquest. He is an award-winning cooking instructor, food writer,
and former chef. His writing credits include Gastronomica, Nation’s
Restaurant News, and New York Newsday as well as multiple contri-
butions to The Oxford Encyclopedia of Food and Drink in America.
He lives in New York City.

Jean-Michel Cousteau
Foreword by Sylvia Earle
Edited by Maia McGuire
“This wonderful book series shows how very precious
the National Marine Sanctuaries are . . . [it] is an
undoubted ‘treasure-house’ and I have no hesitation in
recommending it to all who love wildlife.”
—Simon Cowell, founder, Wildlife Aid
“Jean-Michel Cousteau and his team have put together
an amazing series of books dedicated to the undersea
world on which we depend. . . . After spending time with
this book, I am even more proud of America’s commit-
ment to protect our National Marine Sanctuaries.”
—Jeff Mora, board member,
National Marine Sanctuary Foundation
Based on the famed French explorer’s film series, Jean-
Michel Cousteau: Ocean Adventures, these are the defin-
itive guides to America’s 13 National Marine Sanctuaries
and Marine National Monuments. Each installment con-
ducts a grand adventure through each of the four regions
of the National Marine Sanctuary system, combining engaging descriptions, stunning photography, and behind-the-scenes stories from
the Ocean Futures Society expedition team. Intelligent inquiries into the health of the world’s oceans are provided along with an
overview of several incredible underwater treasures. Conveying the beauty of the ocean and the specific measures being put into effect
to preserve it, this inspirational collection also features detailed, practical information for planning visits to the sanctuaries. Included
in this volume are the sanctuaries of Thunder Bay, Stellwagen Bank, and Monitor—the resting place of the Civil War vessel. Filled
with color photographs, revealing commentary by Jean-Michel and his team, and accessible science, this book is an invaluable tool for
understanding the importance of the Sanctuaries and their role in protecting our ocean resources.

Cool guides for natives and visitors seeking to experience unique, independently owned, local businesses
Rather series
Sleekly designed and focusing exclusively on locally owned restaurants and stores, these modern city guides—formerly known as the
eat.shop guides—are unique in both form and content. With the goal of supporting a culture and economy that value well-crafted
experiences, they offer travelers and locals a colorful, compelling new lens for viewing a city. Each featured business is hand-picked by
the author to represent the crème de la crème of cities beloved by both locals and tourists. By including only the most unique inde-
pendent eating and shopping establishments, the books present a fresh and unexpected look at each city, highlighting an exciting array
of neighborhoods. The convenient size is ideal for bags and purses, while the beautiful design, luscious photographs and personal
observations work together to tell a vivid, distinctive story of a city.
