The first and only history of the American craft


beer movement

The Audacity of Hops


The History of America’s Craft Beer Revolution
Tom Acitelli
• Co-op available
• Advertising in Beer Advocate, Celebrator Beer News, and Draft Magazine
• Author tour to include Boston, Denver, and New York City
Charting the birth and growth of craft beer across the United States,
Tom Acitelli offers an epic, story-driven account of one of the most
inspiring and surprising American grassroots movements. In 1975,
there was a single craft brewery in the United States; today there are
more than 2,000. Now this once-fledgling movement has become
ubiquitous nationwide—there’s even a honey ale brewed at the
White House. This book not only tells the stories of the major fig-
ures and businesses within the movement, but it also ties in the
movement with larger American culinary developments. It also
charts the explosion of the mass-market craft beer culture, including
magazines, festivals, home brewing, and more. This entertaining and
informative history brims with charming, remarkable stories, which
together weave a very American business tale of formidable odds
and refreshing success.
Tom Acitelli is a writer and former senior editor at the New York
Observer. His work has appeared in the New York Post, the New
York Times, Redbook, and Town & Country. He is a regular con-
tributor to All About Beer, the brewing industry’s leading trade
magazine. He lives in Cambridge, Massachusetts.

Eckhardt looked like “a small swimming pool,” its surface
yellowy white and alive with churning yeast, devouring the
sugars unleashed by the earlier boiling soak of the cracked
grains. This type of brewing had been done for centuries,
but it was rarely done on this scale anymore—not in the
United States, at least. We do not know the exact thoughts
passing through the minds of Maytag and Eckhardt as they
toured Anchor Steam’s brewhouse, with its worn wood,
copper kettles, and walls of red and white brick; neither
man, after all, thought to record them, as they were not
aware of the specialness of their meeting. How could they
have been? It had been years since Maytag’s acquisition
now and no other craft brewers had come after. There was
nothing to indicate to either man that they were at the start
of something.

The Life of Eddy Merckx,
Cycling’s Greatest Champion
William Fotheringham
“Extensively researched with insightful views of the man and athlete
from fans, mentors, family, and rivals.” —London Cyclist
“A fascinating, often bleak portrait of a remarkable athlete and an
unnerving man.” —Sunday Times
“A fine portrait of obsession, and a rich reminder that cycling did not

Leading cycling writer William Fotheringham presents the biography of
the greatest cyclist in history, Eddy Merckx—the extraordinary man
who is to cycling what Muhammad Ali is to boxing. This definitive his-
tory chronicles his life, examining both the ups and the downs.
Throughout his professional career Merckx amassed an astonishing
445 victories and exhibited a remorseless sense of domination that cre-
ated his legend. But his triumphs only tell half of a story that includes
horrific injury, a doping controversy, and tragedy. To discover the back-
ground of the Belgian cyclist’s former invincibility, the author spoke
with those who were there at the time and those who knew Merckx
best. This is the singular tale of a man whose fear of failure would drive
him to reach the highest pinnacles before ultimately destroying himself.
William Fotheringham is the cycling correspondent at the Guardian
newspaper, covering the Tour de France as well as three Olympic
Games. He launched Cycle Sport magazine in 1993 and ProCycling Excerpt:
magazine and website in 1998. He is the author of A Century of
Cycling, Cycle Racing, Cyclopedia, and Put Me Back on My Bike. What sounds like one of the most straightforward stage

It was an epic that called for absolute commitment over
more than four hours. During escapes like the one to
Mourenx, he told me, he felt something of what the Irish
star Stephen Roche described as “the joy of the exploit”—
the feeling of euphoria at the knowledge he was putting
something special into the history books—but tempered
with the need to keep his head, “concentration on the
race, giving yourself utterly, thinking that your adversaries
mustn’t catch up, thinking about getting to the line first.
You get pleasure because you have proof that you have
worked well. All the effort and sacrifice has been reward-
ed. You suffer but at the same time there is a sort of joy.”
“I hope I have done enough now for you to consider me a
worthy winner,” he said afterwards to the journalists.

Man’s dream of flying solo

The Great American Jet Pack


The Quest for the Ultimate Individual Lift Device
Steve Lehto
• Co-op available
• Advertising in Geek Monthly and Science News
• Author’s previous books sold more than 75,000 copies
Tracing the remarkable history of a certain kind of flying machine—
from the rocket belt to the jet belt to the flying platform and all the
way to Yves Rossy’s 21st-century free flights using a jet-powered
wing—this historical account delves into the technology that made
these devices possible and the reasons why they never became com-
mercial successes on a mass scale. These individual lift devices, as
they were blandly labeled by the government men who financed
much of their development, answered man’s desire to simply step
outside and take flight. No runways, no wings, no pilot’s license
were required. But the history of the jet pack did not follow its
expected trajectory and the devices that were thought to become as
commonplace as cars have instead become one of the most over-
promised technologies of all time. This fascinating account profiles
the inventors and pilots, the hucksters and cheats, and the business-
men and soldiers who were involved with the machines, and it tells a
great American story of a technology whose promise may yet, one
day, come to fruition.

in his own words

Springsteen on Springsteen
Interviews, Speeches, and Encounters
Jeff Burger
• Co-op available
• Advertising in American Songwriter and Blurt magazines
• Part of the Musicians in Their Own Words series
Offering fans an extensive look at the artist’s own words throughout
the past four decades, Springsteen on Springsteen brings together
Q & A–formatted articles, speeches, and features that incorporate
significant interview material. No one is better qualified to talk about
Springsteen than the man himself, and he’s often as articulate and
provocative in interviews and speeches as he is emotive onstage and
in recordings. While many rock artists seem to suffer through inter-
views, Springsteen has welcomed them as an opportunity to speak
openly, thoughtfully, and in great detail about his music and life. This
volume starts with his humble beginnings in 1973 as a struggling
artist and follows him up to the present, as Springsteen has achieved
almost unimaginable wealth and worldwide fame. Included are fea-
ture interviews with well-known media figures, including Charlie
Rose, Ted Koppel, Brian Williams, Nick Hornby, and Ed Norton.
Fans will also discover hidden gems from small and international
outlets, in addition to radio and TV interviews that have not previ-
ously appeared in print. This is a must have for any Springsteen fan.
Jeff Burger is the author of published articles in more than 75
magazines and newspapers, including Barron’s, Family Circle,
Gentlemen’s Quarterly, Golfweek, High Fidelity, the Los Angeles
Times, and Reader’s Digest. He has also edited several major profes-
sional and financial magazines. He lives in Ridgewood, New Jersey.

“A poignant true story about a unique love affair,


intimately told and wonderfully written, involving
the legendary Jim Morrison.”
—John Rechy, author, City of Night

Love Him Madly


An Intimate Memoir of Jim Morrison
Judy Huddleston
Foreword by Pamela Des Barres
“Judy Huddleston’s dreamy, provocative memoir is about the empti-
ness and desperation so many of us feel when we’re young. It’s about
that universal desire for meaning, for the world to be more whole and
colorful than it ever manages to be, and how Huddleston wrapped all
that desire and hope into this one equally troubled and desperate man:
Jim Morrison.” —Kerry Cohen, author, Loose Girl
“Love Him Madly delves into the profound personal cost of standing
too close to such an incandescent and unpredictable flame. . . .
Huddleston’s urgent and compelling prose plunge the reader inside
that time, that place, that beautiful, self-destructive genius.”
—Sue William Silverman, author, Love Sick
• Co-op available
• Advertising in Blurt and Bust magazines
Chronicling a young woman’s four-year relationship with the lead
singer of the Doors, this intensely intimate memoir provides a direct
and unprecedented view of the late-1960s Los Angeles subculture.
When Judy Huddleston’s parents got divorced, she spent her last year of
high school attending concerts. Transformed from a perceptive child
into a rebellious teenager bent on attracting boys and fueled by psyche-
delics, she had lost her sense of self. That’s when Jim Morrison came
into her life. Honest, funny and direct, Huddleston provides an emo-

Lou Gramm and Scott Pitoniak
• $20,000 marketing budget; co-op available
Lou Gramm rose from humble, working-class roots in Rochester,
New York, to become one of rock’s most popular and distinctive
voices in the 1970s and ’80s, singing and cowriting more than a
dozen hits with the band Foreigner. Songs such as “Cold As Ice,”
“I Want to Know What Love Is,” “Waiting for a Girl Like You,”
“Double Vision,” “Urgent,” and “Midnight Blue” are among 20

and became rock classics still played often, nearly three decades
after they first hit the airwaves and the record store shelves. Juke
Box Hero: The My Five Decades in Rock ‘n’ Roll chronicles, with
remarkable candor, the ups and downs of this popular rocker’s
amazing life—a life which saw him achieve worldwide fame and for-
tune, then succumb to its trappings before summoning the courage
and faith to overcome his drug addiction and a life-threatening
brain tumor. Gramm takes the reader behind the scenes—into the
recording studio, back stage, on the bus trips and beyond—to give
an insider’s look into the life of the man Rolling Stone magazine
referred to as “the Pavarotti of rock.”
Lou Gramm was the lead singer and songwriter for the band
Foreigner during the height of the band’s success in the 1970s and
1980s. He wrote or cowrote 20 songs that achieved Top 40 status.

handed me a sheet with the lyrics and played the demos that
featured only music, no words. After that, Mick sang the
melody for me into my headphones so that I would know
roughly how he wanted me to sing the song. He then told
me to go over to the microphone with the music stand. He
rewound the music tape to the beginning and told me to give
it a shot. I was so nervous I could feel my knees knocking.
There were three songs they had me do—“Feels Like the
First Time,” “World at War,” and “Take Me to Your Leader.”
The first two wound up making the cut of Foreigner’s first
album. Mick already had auditioned about 50 singers, none
to his liking, but there was something about my voice on
those Black Sheep albums that had caused him to think,
This is the sound I want to carry out the band’s vision. And
I guess my audition only wound up confirming those beliefs,
though it took a while for him and the others to convey that

The best film reviews from a towering figure of


film criticism

Rainer on Film
Thirty Years of Film Writing in a Turbulent
and Transformative Era
Peter Rainer
• Co-op available
• Author tour to include Los Angeles; New York; Park City, Utah
(Sundance Film Festival); and Toronto
From American Beauty (overrated) to The Night of the Hunter (mas-
terpiece), this collection of Peter Rainer’s film criticism spans the
course of his illustrious 30-year career, which dates back to the early
1980s. It is drawn from a wide range of publications, including
the Christian Science Monitor, the Los Angeles Herald Examiner,
Los Angeles magazine, the Los Angeles Times, New Times Los
Angeles, and New York magazine, and is arranged thematically with
chapters such as Overrated, Underseen; Some Masterpieces;
Documentaries; Issues (Mostly Hot Button); Comedies—Intentional
and Unintentional; and Literary and Theatrical Adaptations. Rainer
covers films both well known and obscure and writes in depth about
many film auteurs—Stanley Kubrick, Alfred Hitchcock, Steven
Spielberg, the Coen Brothers, Mike Leigh—and New Generation
icons, such as Sofia Coppola and Paul Thomas Anderson. The careers
of actors ranging from Marlon Brando and Jessica Lange to Robert
DeNiro are also given an extensive examination. No film buff’s col-
lection is complete without this comprehensive compilation that
showcases the best work from a master contemporary film critic.

more complicated. So many of the actors who meant so
much to my college generation have nestled into comfy,
spoofy character roles. It’s tempting to see this as an erasure
of our pasts, a betrayal. Why should this be? It is because of
the extraordinary, spooky intimacy of film itself. If you care
enough about movies, the trajectory of, say, an actor’s career,
or a director’s, inevitably becomes a part of one’s own auto-
biography. But I hasten to add that autobiographies get
rewritten all the time, some old timers have held up quite
well indeed, and, like any other self-respecting Lothario,
this critic is always on the prowl for fresh ecstasies.

The Origin of Feces


What Excrement Tells Us About Evolution, Ecology,
and a Sustainable Society
David Waltner-Toews
• $20,000 marketing budget; co-op available
An entertaining and enlightening exploration of why waste matters,
this cultural history explores an often ignored subject matter and
makes a compelling argument for a deeper understanding of human
and animal waste. Approaching the subject from a variety of per-
spectives—evolutionary, ecological, and cultural—this examination
shows how integral excrement is to biodiversity, agriculture, public
health, food production and distribution, and global ecosystems.
From primordial ooze, dung beetles, bug frass, cat scats, and flush
toilets to global trade, pandemics, and energy, this is the awesome,
troubled, uncensored story of feces.
David Waltner-Toews is a veterinarian and epidemiologist. He is the
author of The Chickens Fight Back: Pandemic Panics and Deadly
Diseases That Jump from Animals to People and Food, Sex and
Salmonella: Why Our Food Is Making Us Sick. He lives in

Excerpt:
The way we treat excrement is a choice that feeds certain species and steals from others,
destroys certain ecosystems and builds up others. Why has shit become such a public health
and environmental problem, when it would seem to be such a smorgasbord of ecological
opportunities? Unless we change how we think about shit, we are doomed to forever live in it.
Or perhaps, more accurately, we already do live in it, and always will, and unless we change
how we think about it, we will continue to create very unfortunate problems for ourselves.
This book is about rectifying (no pun intended) our ignorance, and achieving that wisdom of
discernment. . . . Despite our journey from the inchoate soups of the early universe to the
highest achievements of modern civilization, we are still, deep inside, animals. Whatever our
station in life, rich or poor, powerful or downtrodden, priest or anarchist, man-god or ape-
man, we still have to urge the passage of materials through our bowels. If we can understand
this substance that emerges from us, from all animals, as an ecological unifying principle,
which goes back to our evolutionary origins and the roots of our belonging, then we can deal
with all the visible shit that surrounds us.
Read on. Know shit.

The Interpretation of Zines


A Pictorial History of Science Fiction Fanzines
Luis Ortiz
“Ortiz is a master at assembling rock-solid facts, elucidating
informed critical appraisals, and welding the two streams of dis-
course into a very readable narrative with the allure of a novel.”
—Asimov’s Science Fiction on Outermost
• Advertising in Asimov’s Science Fiction, Locus, and Fantasy
& Science Fiction magazines
A remarkable journey through the development of a popular
subculture, from its earliest fans in the 1930s who used primitive
desktop-printing technology to create amateur “zines” mimick-
ing newsstand magazines to more recent zines dedicated to
media science fiction, this chronicle of sci-fi fandom is a unique,
eccentric, and richly entertaining look at the genre. This visual
compendium showcases the best, most interesting, and strangest
fanzines ever produced and provides the historical background
of their development and detailed information on the writers and
artists involved in their creation. From Ray Bradbury and Gene
Simmons to Stephen King and Roger Ebert, the work of famous
sci-fi zinesters is explored as well as all the marginal ephemera
from a once isolated little genre that has now gained worldwide
recognition and acceptance.
Luis Ortiz is the author of Arts Unknown: The Life & Art of Lee

was nominated for both the Hugo and Locus Awards. He is also

A new, chilling take on an old classic

Robinson Crusoe
on Zombie Island
Daniel Defoe and Ivan Fanti
Inspired by the original literary classic, this horror mash-up tells the
story of Robinson Crusoe and his 28-year struggle to survive on an
island beset by ravenous zombies. Crusoe is forced to improvise in the
wake of total isolation and terror. His only hope may be Friday, a
native cannibal woman, as he is caught between the warring factions
of cannibals and zombies. Told through the pages of Robinson
Crusoe’s diary, this book offers a satisfying combination of serious
and silly as readers find just how badly things can go for this all-
time favorite once the living dead are added to the mix.
Daniel Defoe’s (1660–1731) other works include A Journal of the
Plague Year and Moll Flanders. Ivan Fanti is an antiquarian book
dealer. He lives in Flatbush, New York.

Excerpt:
When I waked it was broad day, the weather clear, and the storm abated, so that the sea did not rage and swell as before, and the dead
crewmen were gone into the hill country. But that which surprised me most was, that the ship was lifted off in the night from the sand
where she lay by the swelling of the tide, and was driven up almost as far as the rock which I at first mentioned, where I had been so
bruised by the wave dashing me against it. This being within about a mile from the shore where I was, and the ship seeming to stand
upright still, I wished myself on board, that at least I might save some necessary things for my use, but the dead men standing on deck
held me back though they use to be my companions.
I thought it not grotesque that the men still cling to the dead ship. We had sailed and lived in honest company together and had taken
to our final voyage in an attempt to escape the plague that had overtaken the land. Yes I knew them all by their Christian names, but
today they were no longer my companions but deadly predators who only saw me as game.
When I came down from my apartment in the tree, I looked about me again to all compass points. The first thing I see is a boat, which
lay, as the wind and the sea had tossed her up, upon the land, about two miles on my right hand. I walked as far as I could upon the
shore to have got to her; but found a neck or inlet of water between me and the boat which was about half a mile broad; so I came
back for the present, being more intent upon getting at the ship, where I hoped to find something for my present subsistence. I had
thought of an artifice to get the dead men off the ship.
It was a dangerous gambit, but I had to have the provisions upon the ship to survive. Inside the boat I found what I needed: the oars
and a rope of length enough for my purposes. The boat was too heavy for one man to push and I had to dig a narrow water trough
with my hands to float it into the sea. With some difficultly I rowed the boat out to the ship. The dead men on deck grew agitated
when they sighted me and massed on the forecastle. I rowed to a position under the bowsprit and began tossing a coconut affixed to
my rope up in the air to place the rope upon the bowsprit. After a number of tries I had the rope hanging from the bowsprit and hoist-
ed myself upwards.
Upon seeing my bustling the dead men clamored and drew closer to the bow. At last one attempted to walk along the bowsprit to get
at me. His unsteady gait undid him as he lost his footing and plummeted into the sea. I watched him sink into the depths. It was true:
dead men cannot swim.

Deadwood meets Cthulhu in this wild and profane Western romp fea-
turing zombies, werewolves, evil spirits, and one pissed off gun-sling-
ing preacher. The Wild West has never seen the likes of Reverend
Jebediah Mercer, a hard man wielding a burning Bible in the battle
between God and the Devil—an endless struggle he’s not sure he cares
who wins. All five of Mercer’s adventures are collected in this blas-
phemous volume laced with fast-paced action, non-stop humor, and
delectable creepiness. In Dead in the West, a vengeful shaman curses
the town by conjuring a seemingly unstoppable army of the undead,
while in the short story the “Deadman’s Road,” an ill-advised shortcut
leads to a bee’s nest of terror. In “The Crawling Sky,” a man stands
condemned not for the murder of his wife, but for raising the
Lovecraftian horror that killed her. A visit to “The Gentleman’s
Hotel” reveals why a woman is attacked by werewolves and left for
dead in a ghost town, and lurking in “The Dark Down There” a min-
ing camp faces off with a horde of cannibalistic fiends. These super-
natural tales of the old West that never was will have readers cheering
for the good guys—if they can figure out who the good guys are.

A masked wrestler grapples with life outside


the ring

Tyrex
Mauro Entrialgo
An offbeat tale with wonderful character-driven humor, this car-
toon follows Tyrex, the victim of a rare mental disorder that pre-
vents him from removing the mask he uses in his professional
wrestling career. Tyrex shares an apartment with three friends:
Ralph, a fellow wrestler, sex aficionado, and womanizer; Atom,
permanently stingy and frugal; and Higueras, a bald-headed
punk with charisma and a unique outlook on life. Absurd in its
humor, this work’s surreal and zany tones make it a memorable
addition to the world of comic books.
Mauro Entrialgo is a cartoonist who has written more than 50
comic books. His work has appeared in numerous periodicals,
and he has written for theater, film, and television.

A satirical and subversive take on the Wild West

Rocky & Hudson: The Gay Cowboys


Adão Iturrusgarai
Foreword by Liniers
“The heroes of Brokeback Mountain were not the first gay cowboys to blaze a trail
through the Wild West. Rocky and Hudson got there first.” —Telegraph
In 1991, long before the release of the film Brokeback Mountain, two gay cowboys
appeared in comic strips of Brazilian newspapers. Rocky and Hudson were the first to
show that not everything in the Wild West was gunfights, saloons, and high jinks on
trusty steeds—there was room for poetry, flowers, parties, and romance. Illustrated in
a style reminiscent of underground cartoonists of the 1960s, this book is a collection
of the madcap comic strips that turned the familiar trope of the Old West on its ear.
Adão Iturrusgarai is a cartoonist whose work has been published in the Brazilian
newspapers Folha de S. Paulo and O Liberal as well as the Argentine magazine Fierro.
Several of his characters have been adapted for television. Liniers is an Argentine car-
toonist whose work has been featured in fanzines, magazines, and newspapers.

bright bowers and labyrinths. . . . Martyn’s scrupulous research

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-

A guide to tending and cultivating spirit

A Mystic Garden
Working with Soil, Attending to Soul
Gunilla Norris
“Norris cycles through the four seasons of a gardener’s heart. Norris . . .
writes lyrically about dormancy and transformation, soil and nourish-
ment, roots and blossoms . . . Norris’s short reflections are balanced by
quiet and meditative poetry on facing pages, inviting deeper rumination
about how God can be discovered in the act of gardening.”

This lyrical primer on the spirituality of gardening reflects on the rela-
tionship between a gardener and his or her garden. Meditating upon
how interaction with the earth opens the heart, schools the mind,
engages the body, and embraces the soul in a world of increasing
detachment from the natural realm, this book affirms a garden as a
soulful space where people can take root and experience the changing
seasons and the enduring cycle of renewal. Filled with the joy of living,
this enchanting spiritual guide will speak to those who yearn to find the
holy in the place they call home.
Gunilla Norris is a writer, meditation teacher, and psychotherapist in
private practice. Her books include Inviting Silence and Simple Ways.
She lives in Mystic, Connecticut.

A spiritual response to our present ecological crisis

Spiritual Ecology
The Cry of the Earth
Edited Llewellyn Vaughan-Lee, PhD
• $25,000 marketing budget; co-op available
Showing the deep connection between our present ecological crisis and
our lack of awareness of the sacred nature of creation, this series of
essays from spiritual and environmental leaders around the world shows
how humanity can transform its relationship with the Earth. Combining
the thoughts and beliefs from a diverse range of essayists, this collection
highlights the current ecological crisis and articulates a much-needed
spiritual response to it. Perspectives from Buddhism, Sufism,
Christianity, and Native American beliefs as well as physics, deep psy-
chology, and other environmental disciplines, make this a well-rounded
contribution. The complete list of contributors are Oren Lyons, Thomas
Berry, Thich Nhat Hanh, Chief Tamale Bwoya, Joanna Macy, Sandra
Ingerman, Richard Rohr, Wendell Berry, Mary Evelyn Tucker, Sister
Miriam MacGillis, Satish Kumar, Vandana Shiva, Pir Zia Inayat-Kahn,

Excerpt:
This book is a collection of responses to the call of the earth. It is
not offered as a solution to a problem because the world is not a
problem; it is a living being in distress. The signs of global imbal-
ance, the tsunamis, the destruction of the coral reefs, are not just
physical symptoms. As Thich Nhat Hanh writes, these are “bells
of mindfulness,” calling us to be attentive, to wake up and listen.
The earth needs our attention. It needs us to remember what is
sacred. The voices collected in this book sound different notes in
response to that call, offer different ways of being attentive, of
remembering what is sacred. Each in our own way, we need to
return to our ancient heritage as guardians of the earth, so that
we may once again be present here, holding the earth with our
hearts and souls as well as in our minds and hands.

Essays Historical, Literary, Sporting, and Elegaic
George Weigel
“George Weigel’s range and intelligence is wonderful, full of
urgency, romance, and wickedly pungent wit. Read and enjoy.”
—R. R. Reno, editor, First Things
“Weigel is one of the great writers of our time, a master of the essay.
With sharp and elegant prose, he plumbs the profundities of subjects
as diverse as baseball and Vatican II, and he takes the measure of
some of the great men of the age. These essays are a joy to read, and
they enrich both mind and heart.” —Mark Henrie,
chief academic officer, Intercollegiate Studies Institute
“If Titian could handle a brush and Haydn had an ear for music,
then one corollary is that Weigel knows how to write. These essays
are of historical importance and someday the same thing will be said
of their author.” —Rev. George Rutler,

A series of reflections by a master essayist and scholar, these pieces
by prominent Catholic commentator George Weigel examine the
conflict between secular America and the Catholic faith. This thought-
provoking collection provides insight on the origins of today’s contro-

as the Second Vatican Council; the work of John Courtney Murray;

The Life and Spiritual Legacy of Bruno Lanteri
Timothy M. Gallagher, OMV
• Author’s previous books sold more than 50,000 copies
• Advertising in America, Choice, First Things, National Catholic Register,
and Presence
Bestselling author Timothy M. Gallagher, OMV, assembles a
remarkable biography of Father Bruno Lanteri, who while living
within a context of exciting historical significance—with the French
Revolution, the rise and fall of Napoleon, and the Bourbon
Restoration reshaping France all around him—overcame great odds
to become the foremost spiritual leader of the age, ultimately found-
ing the Oblates of the Virgin Mary. Drawn from Lanteri’s own jour-
nals, letters, and correspondence, Gallagher offers a detailed
spiritual portrait of a man once limited by his own impatience and
lack of charity, who evolved into a man of fierce spiritual courage,
religious reformer, defender of the Pope against Napoleon’s com-
mand, and a symbol of perseverance who coined the term “begin
again”—the official motto of the Oblates. Complemented by a time-
line of historical events, photographs, and maps, Gallagher’s richly
researched volume brings to light the ministry and legacy of a
remarkable leader as never before.
Timothy M. Gallagher, OMV, is considered to be one of the greatest
interpreters of the spirituality of Ignatius of Loyola. He is a popular
retreat leader, an Ignatius scholar, and a lecturer. He is the author of
several books, including The Discernment of Spirits: The Ignatian
Rule for Everyday Life, The Examen Prayer, An Ignatian

Landscapes
Kathleen Matthews-Saunders
Utilizing a unique method that combines quilting, dyeing,
and stitching techniques, the projects in this book teach
intermediate to experienced embroiderers and quilters
how to create beautiful landscape quilts. First listing the
materials are needed, the guide then goes through the
design process, from taking reference photographs of land-
scapes to composition, identifying the light source, and
choosing fabrics and thread to create the scene. Simple
dyeing methods are explained, as are ways to transfer
designs on to fabric, create a quilt, then layer fabrics to
create the various parts of a picture. Free machine embroi-
dery is then used to create the desired effect, with hand
embroidery sometimes employed for details. With plenty
of information on creating landscape elements such as
water, skies, trees, hills and mountains, fields, flowers and
buildings, and more, there is also advice on how to depict
the four seasons. There are five gorgeous step-by-step proj-
ects—Autumn Woodland, Flowers in a Landscape,
Mountain Scene, Sunset on Water, and Lavender Field—
and the book is filled with beautiful landscapes to inform
and inspire textile artists.

and leisure craft classes in machine embroidery, patch-
work, and quilting. She teaches at the Royal Forest of

A fresh account of the bite felt ‘round the world

The Bite Fight


Tyson, Holyfield and the Night
That Changed Boxing Forever
George Willis
• Co-op available
The infamous boxing match between Mike Tyson and Evander
Holyfield on June 28, 1997, was like none other in the sport’s histo-
ry, and this insightful account of the anticipation, the gruesome fight
itself, and the ongoing aftermath of that one night reveals just how
much of an impact it really made. The rivals met for a rematch that
would never be finished, as Tyson earned a disqualification and
infamy that followed in the third round by biting off a portion of
Holyfield’s ear. Through nearly 100 interviews, including with the
famed fighters themselves, and extensive research of past interviews,
books, and transcripts, this exploration of the sensational events sur-
rounding the fight provides a behind-the-scenes, past and present
look at the bout.

Excerpt:
Close to 17,000 people—some covered in jewels, some in jeans—were out of their seats, standing and cheering as Mike Tyson and
Evander Holyfield traded punches in the center of a boxing ring. For nine intense rounds, Holyfield, a huge underdog despite being a
former heavyweight champion, had more than held his own against the heavily favored Tyson, who was defending his WBA heavy-
weight championship. Tyson thought Holyfield would be easy work, but he was proving to be exactly what his nickname suggested,
“The Real Deal.”
The harder Tyson punched, the harder Holyfield punched back. That’s why the crowd was standing. The roars that filled the area were
deafening.
At this point in his life, Tyson had already earned a fortune, lost a fortune, and was now in the process of doing it all over again with
little concern about who he faced in the ring. Holyfield was supposed to be another quick payday, a means to collect more cash to
spend on houses, cars, women, and jewels. “I’m going to make $30 million Saturday night and sign for another $30 million on
Monday,” Tyson had boasted during the press conference days before the fight.
The first fight between Evander Holyfield and Mike Tyson had been years in the making. It had been six years since their first fight
was canceled and 12 years since they both turned pro. Tyson was originally a 25:1 favorite when the fight was announced, but only a
6:1 favorite when the first bell rang. Holyfield, a two-time heavyweight champion, was viewed as washed up after three wars with
Riddick Bowe and a lackluster showing against the former cruiserweight champion Bobby Czyz. Holyfield was supposed to be easy
work for Tyson.
But instead of dominating Holyfield as many thought, Tyson was getting battered by the underdog. By the end of the ninth round,
Tyson has a cut over his left eye and his body and ego were being badly bruised by the determined Holyfield, who was expertly execut-
ing a simple game plan. “When he hits me, I’m going to hit him back,” Holyfield had said.

A candid memoir from the man behind the beast

Animal
George “The Animal” Steele and Jim Evans
Foreword by Cowboy Bill Watts
• Co-op available
A stand-out character in an entertainment industry where per-
sona is everything, George “The Animal” Steele shares how he
balanced his real life as Jim Myers, a highly respected high
school teacher and coach, with the green tongued, hairy backed,
turnbuckle eating wrestling icon he was in the ring. The memoir
delves into the golden era of wrestling in the 1970s and 1980s
and his entry into the World Wrestling Federation where he
earned a spot in professional wrestling history despite only
speaking in animal-like grunts. In reality, the educated man that
overcame his struggles with dyslexia and Crohn’s Disease was a
father and an inspiration to many of his students and players,
and the dichotomous personalities that marked this much-loved
man’s life are explored in his own words. The book is filled with
nostalgic and humorous anecdotes about the whirlwind life of
wrestling alongside such notables as Hulk Hogan and Bruno
Sammartino, both in and out of the ring.
George “The Animal” Steele is Jim Myers, a retired professional
wrestler, high school teacher, and high school football and

The soft side of a hard-nosed baseball icon

Heart of a Tiger
Growing up with My Grandfather, Ty Cobb
Herschel Cobb
• $20,000 marketing budget; co-op available
Herschel Cobb’s moving account of his relationship with his leg-
endary grandfather reveals a side of Ty Cobb that few people ever
saw, that of loving nurturer. A baseball icon and arguably the best
player who ever lived, Ty Cobb’s infamously cold, competitive nature
allowed him to excel on the ball field but undermined his relation-
ship with his children. Devastated by the untimely death of two of
his sons, Cobb relished the opportunity to reconnect the broken
family ties when young Herschel and his siblings visited him during
the summers. In the pages of this book, Herschel, whose cruel,
abusive father and adulterous, alcoholic mother filled his childhood
with turmoil, recounts how his grandfather provided the stability,
love and guidance that Herschel desperately needed. Beautifully
written and insightful, this memoir describes the healing bond
between Cobb and his grandchildren, and constructs a wholly
different legacy for the notoriously tough Cobb as gentle and
affectionate “Granddaddy.”
Herschel Cobb is the grandson of Ty Cobb. He lives in Menlo
Park, California.

Excerpt:
There we sat at the table in the kitchen. Dull light, looking at the box of
Ritz, glancing at each other, munching away. I liked it. It was great. I was
with my Granddad, alone. Eating Ritz crackers, late at night. I didn’t want it
to end, so I kept eating crackers and sipping milk. Then he stood up and
went to the sink and got a glass of water and I saw his legs, again.
“Granddaddy, your legs, what happened to your legs?” My voice was
almost silent. I wanted to ask, but hesitant to pry, but almost shocked at
how much they must hurt. Nonetheless, I wanted to know what happened
to him.
“When I first started, you know, broke into the majors, I was pretty fast. I
figured when I got to first base, the base path to second and third belonged
to me. That’s the rule. I liked to steal second, and third. It really rattled the
pitcher and his infield. And, I was pretty good at it. You know, I told you
about the sliding pit in my back yard. I started practicing before I was fif-
teen. So I stole as often as I could.”
He sipped his water. “I guess, at first, they figured I was lucky, but my hook
slide worked nearly every time. In my second year, I started stealing again,
and as often as I could. They had to try and stop me, so they used their
spikes on me. They wanted to scare me.”

The book also reflects on Wooden’s core philosophies and the guid-

his election into two halls of fame as a player and a coach, winning
10 National College Athletic Association (NCAA) National
Championships in a 12-year period, and being named NCAA

Then he quoted Martin Luther King, Jr.: “The measure of a

A rare glimpse into the personal life of a


memorable baseball personality

The Mouth That Roared


My Six Outspoken Decades in Baseball
Dallas Green and Alan Maimon
• Co-op available
From profanity-laced clubhouse tirades and outspoken opinions on
the state of the game to tears at an emotional funeral for his mur-
dered granddaughter, Dallas Green tells his story for the first time in
this autobiography. In his nearly 60 years in baseball as a pitcher;
manager of three franchises, including both New York squads, the
Mets and Yankees; general manager; and executive, Dallas Green has
never minced words or shied away from making enemies. Though
many bristled at his gruff style, nobody could argue with the result
of his leadership: as manager of the Philadelphia Phillies, he led the
team to a World Series championship in 1980 and as general manger
of the Chicago Cubs, he pulled off one of the most lopsided trades in
the history of the sport by dealing journeyman Ivan DeJesus to the
Phillies in exchange for Larry Bowa and future Hall of Famer Ryne
Sandberg. This larger-than-life baseball personality shares insights
from the mound, the dugout, and the front office as well as anec-
dotes of some of the game’s biggest stars and encounters with the
press, player agents, and the unions. Dallas Green also shares his
feelings about his granddaughter, Christina-Taylor Green, who was
shot and killed by a deranged stalker in Tucson, Arizona, during an
assassination attempt on the life of Arizona Congresswoman
Gabrielle Giffords. Knowing that the loss of his beloved grand-
daughter has irrevocably changed him, Green discusses how, in the
wake of her death, baseball became a coping mechanism for him.

Philadelphia Phillies Major League Baseball team, and a former

The superstars behind the reemergence of

Core Four
The Heart and Soul of the Yankees Dynasty
Phil Pepe
• Co-op available
• Author’s previous books sold more than 100,000 copies
Tracing the careers of four instrumental players who turned around the
Yankees ball club, this book shares behind-the-scenes stories from their
early days together in the minors through the 2012 season, and follows
them on their majestic ride to the top of the baseball world. At a time
when the New York Yankees were in free fall, having failed to win a
World Series in 17 years and had not played in one in 14 years—the
Bronx Bombers’ longest drought since before the days of Babe Ruth—
along came four young players whose powerful impact returned the
franchise to its former glory. They were a diverse group from different
parts of the globe: Mariano Rivera, a right-handed pitcher from
Panama, who was destined to become the all-time record holder in
saves and baseball’s greatest closer; Derek Jeter, a shortstop raised in
Kalamazoo, Michigan, who would become the first Yankee to accumu-
late 3,000 hits; Jorge Posada, an infielder-turned-catcher from Puerto
Rico, who would hit more home runs than any Yankees catcher except
the legendary Hall of Famer Yogi Berra; and Andy Pettitte, a left-
handed pitcher born in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, who would win more
postseason games than any player in baseball history. Together they
formed the “Core Four,” and would go on to play as teammates for
13 seasons during which time they would help the Yankees advance to
the postseason 12 times, win the American League pennant seven
times, and take home five World Series trophies. This book follows
these phenoms from the minor leagues to the present, detailing their significant contributions to a winning major league franchise.
Phil Pepe is the author of more than 50 books on sports, including Few and Chosen Yankees: Defining Yankee Greatness Across the
Eras, The Yankees: An Authorized History of the New York Yankees, as well as a biography of Yogi Berra, and collaborations with
New York Yankee legends Mickey Mantle, Billy Martin, and Whitey Ford. He is a former Yankees beat writer for the New York Daily

TRIUMPH BOOKS MAY I don’t want to say that back then I thought of him as a top-of-the-rotation pitcher
because in those days when I first saw him, he didn’t throw very hard, maybe 88–90
miles per hour. I don’t think anybody could look at him back then and project that he
was going to be a No. 1 or a guy that would go out and have the success he’s had, espe-
cially in the postseason.”
Jorge Posada started and ended the season in Columbus, batting .240 with 11 homers
and 48 RBI in 92 games, and he would miss almost half the season with a serious, career-
threatening injury.
“The first time I saw Posada [in 1992] he was playing for Greensboro and he was the
designated hitter,” Merrill recalled. “When I asked about him, I was told that he was a
second baseman but they were in the process of converting him to a catcher. And we all
know how that ended up. Actually, Posada probably could have made it as a second base-
man, but becoming a catcher was probably the best thing that happened to him. He ran
well enough to play the infield and he had very good speed for a catcher until he got that
ugly, ugly broken leg.”

A moving tribute of a star-studded Pittsburgh Pirate

Pops
The Willie Stargell Story
Richard “Pete” Peterson
• Co-op available
• 2012 marks the 25th anniversary of Willie Stargell’s induction into the
Major League Baseball Hall of Fame and the U.S. Post Office announced
that he will be one of four baseball legends featured on a set of postage
stamps. There have been more than 350,000 pre-orders placed for the
Stargell stamp.
A touching biography of the beloved Pittsburgh Pirate Willie “Pops”
Stargell, this life story documents the 21-year, Hall of Fame career
of one of the most celebrated and revered players in the history of
Major League Baseball. Beginning with his difficult childhood and
revealing his encounters with fierce racial hostility while playing minor
league ball in the south, this book goes on to show how Stargell
became one of the most feared hitters in baseball, a perennial All Star
and MVP candidate, and World Series hero. More than a slugging
star, Stargell—a clubhouse leader who was revered for his bursting
personality and joie de vivre—earned the affectionate nickname
“Pops” during the 1979 season when he began handing out stars to
teammates following a good play or game. The stars soon became a
symbol of the unity on the Pirates team that went on to win the World
Series. This biography also details his life following his playing days:
Stargell’s coaching career, his struggles with obesity and diabetes, and
his lasting legacy that remains relevant to this day. This telling of a
dearly loved man with a larger-than-life personality is a must read for
any fan of baseball.
Richard “Pete” Peterson is a regular contributor to the Post-Gazette,
the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, and other newspapers and magazines. He is the author of 50 Great Moments in Pittsburgh Sports, Extra

TRIUMPH BOOKS MAY
Stargell at the left-field entrance to PNC Park. When Nellie Briles, Stargell’s
teammate on the 1971 World Series championship team, and Chuck Tanner,
manager of the 1979 World Series champions, unveiled the statue, those in
attendance saw in bronze and larger than life what had struck fear in National
League pitchers for nearly two decades: a powerful and coiled Stargell, bat
drawn back, waiting defiantly for the pitcher to deliver the baseball.
Sprinkled on the statue’s circular flat base, as if they had fallen from the statue,
were images of “Stargell’s stars,” those embroidered gold stars that “Pops” had
passed out to his teammates to wear on their baseball caps when they had done
something to help the team win a game. The base was encircled by an engraved
quotation of Stargell’s first impression of Pittsburgh when he was called up by
the Pirates in late 1962: “Last night, coming in from the airport, we came
through the tunnel and the city opened up its arms and I felt at home.”
Once the statue was unveiled, Chuck Tanner stepped forward, reached up, and
rubbed his hand over Stargell’s batting grip. Pointing at the way the little finger
of the statue’s lower hand overlapped the knob of the bat, he said, “That’s
incredible. That’s how he held the bat right there.” Moved almost to tears,
Tanner told those at the ceremony, “Time goes so fast . . . Why won’t time
stand still so we can still watch Willie play?”

The people of Afghanistan provide insight into the


past and present plight of their country and their
hopes for the future

Above the Din of War


Afghans Speak About Their Lives, Their Country,
and Their Future—and Why America Should Listen
Peter Eichstaedt
• Co-op available
• Advertising in the Nation
• Author tour to include Minneapolis; New York City; and Washington, DC
Most books about the war in Afghanistan examine the conflict from
the perspective of a foreign correspondent, political analyst, or US
soldier, but Above the Din of War focuses on the people of Afghanistan
themselves, providing a forum in which the thoughts of everyday
people can be considered. Having traveled the country for a year, Peter
Eichstaedt draws out Afghans from all walks of life: a former warlord,
a Taliban judge, victims of self-immolation, courageous women parlia-
mentarians, would-be suicide bombers, besieged merchants, frightened
mullahs, and desperate archaeologists. The book explores a country
that both vexes and fascinates the world and relates what its people
have to say about living through 30 years of continual unrest, violence,
and negative international attention. From his time spent interviewing
and living with the people of Afghanistan, Eichstaedt proposes
American and NATO exit strategies that could avoid leaving
Afghanistan mired in chaos and war. This thought-provoking title from
a journalist’s point of view adds a human element to this complex
international situation.
Peter Eichstaedt is a veteran journalist who has reported from loca-
tions worldwide, including Slovenia, Moldova, Afghanistan, Albania, Armenia, and Uganda. He worked most recently as the
Afghanistan Country Director of the Institute for War and Peace Reporting, during which time he managed six journalism develop-
ment programs, including the Afghan Investigative Journalism Fund, a one-year project to build investigative journalism reporting
capacity. He is the former Africa editor for the Institute of War and Peace Reporting in the Hague and the author of Consuming the
Congo, First Kill Your Family, If You Poison Us, and Pirate State. He lives in Denver, Colorado.

insurgents could strike at will and often did. On any given day, violence exploded. A fuel truck
would be attacked on the road between Kabul and Jalalabad, Afghanistan’s big city near the
Pakistan border, the vital supply route from the east. A car laden with explosives would ram a
convoy of Scandinavian troops in the once-peaceful northern province of Balkh. Suicide
bombers would assault United Nations offices in the western provincial capital of Herat.
Motorcycle bombers would be gunned down in the streets of Kandahar.
None of these acts was decisive, and taken alone, each was meaningless. But collectively they
were significant, indicative of the chaos that was creeping across a country that was crumbling
at the edges and collapsing at its core. The chaos was cultivated by the Taliban masters known
as the Quetta Shura, the Taliban council headed by the elusive one-eyed leader Mullah
Mohammad Omar. Said to live in the Pakistan city of Quetta and in full view of the Pakistan
intelligence agency, the Inter-Service Intelligence (ISI), Mullah Omar operated as a general in
absentia, seemingly untouchable. Any Afghan would tell you that the ISI supported the
Taliban—always had. Only reluctantly was this discussed openly by US policymakers, who
had put billions of dollars into Pakistani pockets to buy their cooperation. It hadn’t worked.

Cover-up of His Death
Amy Waters Yarsinske
“Drawing upon more than 500 interviews, government documents,
intelligence case files, correspondence, and other materials, Yarsinske
describes an investigation allegedly plagued by mistakes and purposeful
neglect.” —Kansas City Star on No One Left Behind
• Author’s previous books sold more than 100,000 copies
The incredible story of denial, deceit, and deception that ultimately
cost Navy pilot Captain Michael Scott Speicher his life is exposed in
this military tell-all. Asserting that years of information has been inten-
tionally kept from an American public, the book reveals that, contrary
to reports, Speicher survived after he ejected from his stricken F/A-18
Hornet on the first night of the Persian Gulf War. Protected by a
Bedouin tribal group, he evaded Saddam’s capture for nearly four
years. In that time he was repeatedly promised by an American intelli-
gence asset that a deal for his repatriation would be worked out but it
never was. Speicher was left behind. After Saddam Hussein captured
him, Speicher spent the next eight years in a secret Baghdad prison and
being moved around in secret to avoid an American task force looking
for him, and before he was killed after the United States invaded Iraq
in March 2003. Author Amy Waters Yarsinske, a former naval intelli-
gence officer and a veteran investigator and author, presents her fasci-
nating case after years of research.
Amy Waters Yarsinske is the author of numerous nonfiction books,
including Lost Virginia Beach and No One Left Behind: The Lt. Cmdr. Michael Scott Speicher Story. She is a former Philip Francis

A fact-based treasure hunt for the


Ark of the Covenant

The Templar Treasure


An Investigation
Tobias Daniel Wabbel
“A fascinating, comprehensive, and absolutely true account of the
author’s search for the real Templar treasure. In this book, Wabbel
chronicles his extraordinary, 11-year journey. . . . An utterly fascinat-
ing book, a gripping read that will keep you turning the pages all
night as Wabbel pieces together the various clues that, taken together,
appear to solve the enduring mystery of the Templar treasure.”
—Douglas Preston, New York Times–bestselling author
Following author Tobias Wabbel’s research and investigation
throughout Europe, this book solves the mystery of the treasure of
the Knights Templar. The most up-to-date archeological and historical
information is discussed, from the history of the Knights Templar and
the history of the Israelites and the Ark of the Covenant, to medieval
literature and Gothic cathedral architecture. Disproving common the-
ories—the Knights Templar never guarded the pilgrimage ways in
Palestine, there is no Priory of Sion, there is no bloodline from Jesus
to the present day, and there is no authentic Shroud of Turin—the
book also proves the existence of the sacred Ark of the Covenant,
also known as the treasure of the Knights Templar, which is still hid-
den in France. Wabbel researched iconography in the architecture of
cathedrals and chapels, and found more evidence in texts and inscrip-
tions that led to his theory on the location of the Templar treasure.
Both a travel guide to the secrets of the treasure of the Knights
Templar and a fascinating read, this book will shake commonly held
beliefs on this interconnected history and renew the interest in it.

So the Templars’ assignment is clear: to shelter—and

pagans get hold of them. The military leader Godfrey of
Bouillon was able to secure a part of the Holy Cross for
Christianity after the siege of Jerusalem in 1099. In his
praise, Bernard of Clairvaux does not mention the
surveillance of pilgrimage ways with a single word.
Instead, the real mission is evident: Bernard calls out a

Discover the habits that kick start creative genius

Making Art a Practice


30 Ways to Paint a Pipe
(How to Be the Artist You Are)
Cat Bennett
“Although many in her classes feel at first they can’t draw, they soon
lose self-consciousness and work with joy, discovering that the practice
of making marks in a nonjudgmental environment brings them into
oneness with the moment.”
—Richard D. Wright, New Age Retailer, on The Confident Creative
• Co-op available
Helping artists catapult into further action, this guide is a treasury of
insight and inspiration. Rather than focus on art techniques that build
skills or overcome creative blocks through playful activities or writing,
this guide walks the artist through exercises designed to develop the
personal qualities critical to being an artist in the world, such as
courage, the ability to look and see, and connection to the true creative
self. This is a hands-on, experiential action book designed to get the
reader creating art and exploring a variety of possibilities for being an
artist. According to the teachings of this handbook, engagement with
art is less about end results or products and more about the self-aware-
ness and competence that frees the artist to seek out and create work
that is vital. This is a rigorous program that allows artists of any skill
level to deepen their creative habits and be the best artists they can be.
Cat Bennett is the author of The Confident Creative. She is an artist
and a professional illustrator whose work has appeared in such publi-
cations as the Atlantic, the Boston Globe, the New York Times, and
Time magazine. She teaches the Saturday Morning Drawing Club at
the Arsenal Center for the Arts in Boston. She lives in Watertown, Massachusetts.

Excerpt:

Preface
In 1928, the Belgian artist René Magritte made a small painting of a pipe and
underneath wrote “Ceçi n’est pas une pipe” (“This is not a pipe”). He called
the painting, The Treachery of Images, making clear that what we see is only
part of what we get. A painting of a pipe is not a pipe; it’s a painting. More to
the point, art leads us beyond ordinary perceptions to extraordinary ways of
seeing, and being. Art holds mystery, and mysteries are not easily parsed but
force us to think about life beyond our limited experience, and to consider
possibilities. For some of us, this comes with the desire to make art.
Who knows where such a desire comes from? Perhaps we have a special gift
The Confident Creative for drawing; perhaps we simply love the way art stirs our imagination and
9781844091850 expands our appreciation of life and the world around us. We see there are
$14.95 (CAN $16.95) ways to make meaning and uncover clarity through art. Whatever is behind
our desire, it seems we can’t rest until we begin to make things and explore.
There’s magic in seeing something emerge from our hand, however simple. We
simply want to engage in this magic.

wedding and portrait industry. Brett Florens is a South African

provides instruction on a wide range of techniques. Florens is a
master of lighting, so lighting diagrams are provided for each

own subjects and shooting style. Posing techniques are also
covered in detail, with tips for both refining the appearance of
the bride and for communicating something about her person-
ality through the pose selected. Florens is also well known for
his fashion-inspired poses, and the aesthetic concepts that make them work effectively are explored. With tips for remaining true to
personal style while working to satisfy the tastes and demands of a variety of brides, it will be a valuable addition to the library of any
professional photographer or advanced student of photography.

world’s most influential photographers. He is the author of Brett Florens’ Guide to Photographing Weddings.

The Miracles of Ordinary Men


Amanda Leduc
• Co-op available
This is the story of two unlikely dreamers: Sam, a man who wakes up
one day to find himself growing wings, and Lilah, a woman who has
lost her brother to the streets of Vancouver. Sam finds himself falling
away from the world as he grows feathers from his back, while Lilah
makes her own subtle and terrifying transformation as she seeks sexu-
al penance under the harsh hand of her boss. Sam and Lilah fall deeper
into their separate spiritual paths, and the two hurtle closer and closer
to a dark, unknown destiny, one that changes all that they know about
life and pain, love and God, and how to find light in the most unfore-
seen places. Re-examining the traditional roles of priest and prophet,
damned and divine, and creating something monstrous and exquisite,
this well-crafted novel investigates the so-called truths behind religion
and explores the intersection of pleasure and pain.
Amanda Leduc is a writer who has been published throughout
Canada, the United States, and the United Kingdon. She lives in
Hamilton, Ontario.

Excerpt:
God is being revealed to both of you—but on God’s time, not yours. You do
not get to decide what makes sense, and whether something has meaning or
not. You get to pay attention. You get to feel God in your blood. That’s all.”
“God does not feel all that great,” said Sam. “He feels like . . . the flu.”
It was the priest’s turn to snort. “God is more terrible than anything you
could imagine, Sam.”
“That’s your wisdom?” Timothy’s voice was almost hysterical. His eyes were
stark, haunted—the eyes of a fugitive. “That’s your uplifting speech?”
“‘Yet in my flesh I shall see God,’” said the priest. He paused and let the
words hang in the air. “Only a fool would find that uplifting. If God is truly
in your veins, gentlemen—changing your skin, changing your bones—there
won’t be anything left of you when it’s over. Anything else is a toy, by compar-
ison.” Now he was quiet, sad. His words settled among them like the ash that
had begun to drift, steady and slow, from Sam’s own wings. “As to the rest—
if I was God, the world would make me ill too.”

Stories set where a dark future intersects


with parental instinct

The Stone Thrower


Adam Marek
“The stories by this assured British writer are fantastical, inventive,
grotesque, sometimes funny, and often disturbing.” —Toronto Star
“Marek’s talent for an almost sweet grotesqueness is on full display.”
—National Post
• Co-op available
• Part of the BackLit series
At the core of Adam Marek’s much-anticipated second short story col-
lection is a single, unifying theme: a parent’s instinct to protect a vulner-
able child. Whether set amid unnerving visions of the near-future or
grounded in the domestic here and now, these stories demonstrate that,
sometimes, only outright surrealism can do justice to the merciless
strangeness of reality and that only the fantastically illogical can steel us
against what ordinary life threatens. Marek has blended futuristic tech-
nology, sinister traditions, and scientifically grounded superpowers into a
menagerie where the absurd and the mundane are not merely bedfel-
lows, but interbreed. In these vignettes, absurdism, surrealism, and fanta-
sy bleed into one, causing the reader to take huge imaginative leaps
while still keeping one foot firmly in reality. This strange and startling
fictional world is accompanied by bonus BackLit materials which
include an introduction and overview of Marek’s stories.
Adam Marek is an award-winning short story writer. He won the 2011
Arts Foundation Short Story Fellowship and was shortlisted for the
inaugural Sunday Times EFG Short Story Award. He is the author of
Instruction Manual for Swallowing, which was nominated for the Frank
O’Connor Prize.

When Lucy comes to Corfu to visit her sister, she is elated to discover
that the castello above their villa is being rented to Sir Julian Gale, one
of the brightest lights in England’s theatrical world. As a minor player
in the London theatre herself, Lucy naturally wishes to meet him—that
is, until her sister indicates, with uncharacteristic vagueness, that all is
not well with Sir Julian and that his composer son discourages visitors,
particularly strangers. Yet Lucy has already encountered Sir Julian’s son
on the morning of her arrival, in a tempestuous run-in that involved the
attempted shooting of a friendly dolphin. First published in 1964, this
spirited novel will hold Mary Stewart fans breathless as it uncovers a

She stomped snow from her galoshes and kicked them off, revealing a pair of Roman-style

with a low bosom and high hemline. Appreciative male murmurs rippled through the room as
she eyed her troops for a few pregnant moments. Then, abruptly, she began.

“Professor Casalaro?”
Simone, lost in renaissance Italy, said, “May I help you, Condotierre?”
“I’m sorry to intrude, but I must speak with you.”
She looked at the clock. “I can see you in half an hour.”
The man gave her a heavy look. “I’m afraid it can’t wait.” Simone felt a chill. “All right, give

He nodded his head and closed the door.

Cambridge archaeologist Sarah Weston and anthropologist Daniel
Madigan team up for another expedition and adventure in this second
book in the Sarah Weston Chronicles. While working on the Qaryat al-Fau
archaeological site in Saudi Arabia, the pair uncovers a mysterious ancient
scroll composed as a riddle. As they attempt to date and decipher the
scroll, a flurry of ills befalls their expedition and the scroll is stolen. A trail
of clues leads to India, Jerusalem, and the Judean wilderness, where the
two discover the scroll was written by the enigmatic King Solomon as a
map to an ancient manuscript. Meanwhile a privileged young Briton, Trent
Sacks, has invested years and a fortune looking for his manuscript.
Believing he is the last descendant of the House of David in the line of
Solomon, Sacks will do whatever it takes to amass the ancient relics which
will prove he is the Jewish Messiah. Leaving a string of murders in his
wake, Sacks vows to crush Sarah and Daniel for challenging his quest.
Journeying through the worlds of the occult, corporate greed, geopolitical
conflict, Judaic mysticism, and biblical archaeology, Sarah and Daniel race
to uncover the powerful ancient message that could have an explosive
impact on modern Israel.

Sullivan, a nasty S.O.B. with a sixth sense for the truth and escaping

she’s in trouble. She and her newborn baby girl are both HIV positive.
The boyfriend who infected her was not who she thought he was; she
never even knew his real name. The only things she knows for sure are
that it was no accident that she was infected, that she wasn’t his only
victim, and that he has to pay the consequences for what he did to her
and her child. To solve the mystery, Sullivan sets off on the long cold
trail of a man carrying something far more deadly than any contra-
band. He works his way through a tangled web of junkies, hookers,
bikers, and smugglers to find the culprit in this unpredictable mystery.

Excerpt:
Sullivan watched the door to the office open. Whoever was outside had knocked
twice. Sullivan ignored the knocks; he was reading the paper and could give a fuck
about whoever wanted inside. He figured the knocker had left after the second
attempt, but the moving door said different. Sullivan let his feet stay on the table
while his left hand drifted to the sawed-off baseball bat he kept leaning against the
desk. The last asshole who came in uninvited still had a tooth imbedded in the wood
of the bat. But there was no pimp looking for his money in the door this time.
Instead, there was a frail blonde woman in a long dress. The dress had a floral pat-
tern that had been faded by age and too many trips through the washing machine.
The blonde hair on her head was thin, dry, and brittle. The colour washed out her
skin and made the large bags under her eyes stand out. Sullivan figured he’d fuck her
with the lights out. The baby in her arms would have to wait in the next room.
“Excuse me,” the woman said.
“You don’t need one,” Sullivan said.
“Pardon?”
“An excuse. Just a reason for being here.”
“I’m looking for Frank Sullivan. Are you him?”
Sullivan stood. “If this is some kind of paternity thing, you’re in the wrong place.”

crime. His colleague was brutally attacked, run over by a car, and
then dumped into a canal—all seemingly for the theft of three letters
from the American Civil War era, one of which is signed by John
Wilkes Booth. Meanwhile, Alice Nahri, the girlfriend of the dead
man, looms over the investigation.

emotional impact, and the final turn of events is both surprising and
expertly set up.” —Publishers Weekly on Floating Staircase
“A gripping thriller, similar to the novels of Gerald Petievich, the
Secret Service agent turned author, but with more emotional and
moral depth.” —Booklist on Shamrock Alley
When Alan Hammerstun inherits a quaint ranch house in the foothills
of the Great Smoky Mountains, he and his wife Heather seize the
opportunity to leave New York and the haunting aftermath of two
miscarriages. Eager to start over in the rural North Carolina town, they
hope this new beginning will be the antidote to Heather’s severe depres-
sion. For a time everything seems perfect. Too perfect, in fact. The
neighbors are all young, handsome, healthy, and friendly. While survey-
ing his new property, Alan finds a dirt path through the forest designat-
ed by stone markers carved with strange symbols, which culminates
in a grassy clearing. One night Alan dreams the path ends at the foot
of a lake and dives in; when he awakes gritty with lake grime and
improved health and strength, he wonders if it could cure Heather’s
depression and infertility as well. When the townspeople warn Alan
of the lake’s powers, he must decide if the community’s secret is a night-
mare or a miracle.

Pressure Proof Your Riding


Mental Training Techniques
Daniel Stewart
Addressing the psychology of competing in equestrian
events, this handbook helps riders confront and alleviate
the anxiety that often presents itself in competition.
Pressure, stress, nerves, distraction, and anxiety are feel-
ings that go hand-in-hand with participating in such
events, forcing riders to deal with the competitive nature
of showing. Walking riders through specific tools and
tricks that can be used to manage and overcome the panic
that can hinder performance, this training manual also
offers advice on how to embrace and enjoy every minute
of performing with an equine partner. From “Plan the
Ride, and Ride the Plan,” to overall mental training, this
must-have book is a fantastic tool for any competitor
who wants to conquer their show jitters and do their best
at every competition, while feeling confident and happy
throughout the experience.

Simple Solutions for Better Jumping
Performance in No Time
Wendy Murdoch
Better balance in the saddle, improved body control
from head to toe, and increased influence with your
seat are just a handful of the simple fixes offered in
this straightforward training manual for jumping.
Most of the suggestions provided within require only
a few minutes to learn and offer solutions for making
jumping more enjoyable for both riders and their
horses. Many of the lessons, such as using your body
to steer between fences, perfecting the crest release,
and counting strides and distances, can be broken
down into a series of smaller exercises that build
upon each other and can also be used as a warm up
or quick position check at the beginning of a ride. By
starting and ending each ride with these simple, easy,
and effective fixes, equestrians will happily and effi-
ciently replace old habits with new ones and get out
of their riding rut.

Excerpt:
The arrival of a new animal marks the beginning of a
whole new relationship. It offers the potential for a new
set of experiences which can be wonderful for both
human and animal. Some experts believe that acquiring
a pet calls for a similar amount of planning to buying a
car or having a child. A potential pet owner needs to be
well informed about the task they are taking on and do
their best to ensure the well-being and happiness of all
concerned – animals and humans.

Excerpt:
Cloning Cannabis
Here is a step-by-step method for cloning. It is simple and
consistent. All you need is a bag of sterilized soil and a bot-
tle of Rotenone or equivalent root growth stimulant.
Step 1: Select a cutting. You want a healthy piece, not
some scraggly piece. Snip it off at a 45 degree angle with
a razor blade.
Step 2: Remove the leaves and small side branches, leaving
a nice cluster at the top of the cut.
Step 3: Put the cut end into the rooting powder.
Step 4: Coat the stem with rooting powder and then shake
off the excess powder or gel.
Step 5: Make a hole in the prepared mix; make the hole big
so it won’t scrape the rooting hormone off.
Step 6: Place the cutting into the hole and pack the medium
gently around it.
Sample interior photos
Step 7: Using plain water, soak the cuttings in the soil.
Bigger roots lead to bigger yields.

Alien Mysteries, Conspiracies


and Cover-Ups
Kevin D. Randle
• Co-op available
Thoroughly investigated by a former Army officer and taken
from his review of hundreds of historical and government
documents and in-person interviews, this book chronicles
more than 100 sightings, events, and discoveries of alien
encounters, government conspiracy, and the influence of extra-
terrestrials on human events throughout history. From prehis-
toric UFO sightings, cave paintings, and ancient astronauts
to modern sightings around the world, this book investigates
claims of aliens living among us, abductions of humans to
alien spacecraft, and accounts of interstellar cooperation since
the UFO crash in Roswell, along with evidence of what the
government knows and what it has covered up. This discus-
sion of the government secrets, theories, and mysteries
surrounding aliens is packed with thought-provoking stories
and shocking revelations of alien involvement in the lives
of Earthlings.
Kevin D. Randle is a retired lieutenant colonel in the Army
who toured in Iraq. He has master’s degrees in psychology and
the art of military science and is the author of Crash: When

“A merciless assault on one of the most prized aspects of
modern culture. Both thought provoking and humorous”
—Oregon Cycling Mag on CARtoons
“Singer is an editorial cartoonist with an unerring eye for
the absurdity of our current car dependence.”
—E magazine
“[Singer’s] work has always pointed out the innate absurd-

• Advertising in Carbusters and Momentum (August)
• Author tour to include Chicago; New York City; Portland,

Taking the position that America’s love affair with cars
and highways is not a cultural phenomena but an problem
that is entrenched in economic and political forces, this
manifesto chronicles the rise of the U.S. highway system,
its very orchestrated genesis, and the alarming increase in
reliance on automobiles. With a format that incorporates a
blend of cartoons, historic photographs, and minimal text,
this handbook reveals the players—among them crooked
politicians, unscrupulous businessmen, and convoluted tax shenanigans—corruption, and greed that has led to endless miles of
asphalt. In addition to analyzing the impact of the cultural bias towards driving and how driving became such a dominant mode
of transportation, this comedic treatise offers a blueprint for rebuilding a functional and sustainable public transportation system
that would bring wealth, happiness, and freedom.
Andy Singer is a cartoonist and illustrator whose drawings have appeared in numerous magazines and publications, including the
Boston Globe, Discover, Esquire, the New Yorker, the Saint Paul Pioneer Press, and the Washington Post. At its peak, his weekly,
self-syndicated comic strip, “No Exit,” ran in 24 papers. He is the co-chair of the Saint Paul Bicycle Coalition. He lives in Saint
Paul, Minnesota.

MICROCOSM PUBLISHING/CANTANKEROUS TITLES AUGUST Excerpt:
With the help of groups like the Minnesota tax payers league, cars
have managed to twist language and public thinking. Gas taxes
and user fees pay just 60% of highway costs. The remaining 40%
is paid out of general fund tax revenue, largely out of cost savings
from Americans who don't own cars and the savings to cities from
lack of road wear, who save their cities around $1/mile everyday.
Conversely, making up the difference in road maintenance costs
each city hundreds of millions of dollars.
