Carl Safina
The first book about the BP disaster by a world-renowned oceanographer,
Blowout examines the environmental and social consequences of the spill

Consisting of three parts, it reveals and details: this shocking manmade
environmental disaster, its occurence with respect to the oil industry's and the
government's complete inability to adequantely respond, and the inevitable
environmental effects. By telling the stories of three working families, Safina goes
behind the scenes with fishermen, oystermen, and oilmen whose lives--and

change as well? Safina addresses these issues in a rich, deeply personal
investigation of a catastrophe he has reported--and blogged on--from the

The Floor of Heaven
A True Tale of the American West and the Yukon Gold
Rush
Howard Blum
By the author of the New York Times bestseller and Edgar Award-winner
American Lightning, and featuring memorable characters and backdrops
evocative of Larry McMurtry's Lonesome Dove and Hampton Sides's Blood
and Thunder, this true-life tale, set in the 1890s, uses the intertwined lives of
a bonanza-seeking gold prospector, an unstoppable lawman, and a wily con
artist-thief to show how the opening of the "last frontier" in Alaska shaped
America's national character.
Charlie Siringo spends two decades in the saddle before joining the Pinkerton
Agency as its "cowboy detective" and heading to Alaska to solve a robbery at the
world's largest gold mine. Along the way, he befriends George Carmack, a gold
prospector with big dreams. When Carmack's discovery of history's richest gold
deposit sets off the 1896 gold rush--and Carmack becomes one of Alaska's
richest men--the prospector-turned-tycoon becomes the target of a gang led by
Soapy Smith, a notorious con man who runs the Alaskan gold-rush underworld.
To stop him, Carmack must enlist the help of his detective friend Charlie Siringo.
These three larger-than-life figures aren't simply unforgettable. Their tangled fates
tell the story of the end of one America and the beginning of something new.

In the Garden of Beasts
Love, Terror, and an American Family in Hitler's Berlin

Erik Larson
A gripping saga of love, intrigue, and terror at the American embassy in
Berlin during Hitler's first year in power, by the bestselling author of Devil in
the White City.
Berlin, 1933. William E. Dodd is a mild-mannered academic from Chicago who
to his own and everyone else's surprise becomes America's first ambassador to
Hitler's Germany, in a year that proves to be a turning point in history. Dodd
moves his wife, son, and flamboyant daughter, Martha, to the city where they
observe firsthand the many changes--some subtle, some disturbing, and some
horrifically violent--that signaled Hitler's consolidation of power. Dodd has little
choice but to associate with key figures in the Nazi party, and Martha has one
dalliance after another with them, including the charismatic and surprisingly
honorable first chief of the Gestapo, Rudolf Diels. The year darkens steadily, and
both Dodd and his daughter find their lives gradually transformed until the bloody
"Night of the Long Knives" establishes Hitler as supreme dictator and shatters any
last illusions Dodd and his daughter harbor about his true character. Suffused with
the tense atmosphere of the times, and with brilliant portraits of Hitler, Goebbels,
Goering, and Himmler, In the Garden of Beasts lends a unique, eyewitness
ON SALE 5/10/2011 perspective on events as they unfold in real time, revealing an era of surprising
CROWN nuance and complexity. The result is an unforgettable, addictively readable work

Innocent Spouse
A Memoir

Carol Ross Joynt


What would you do if, just weeks after your spouse's sudden death, you
found out he was keeping secrets? Big secrets. Secrets that could cost you
millions of dollars--and brand you as a criminal. Innocent Spouse is an
eye-opening memoir that asks a provocative and disturbing question: is it
ever possible to really know and trust someone, even your spouse?
Carol Joynt was a successful producer; her husband, Howard, owned a
legendary restaurant in Georgetown. They lived a fairy-tale life--until, when their
son Spencer was five, Howard suddenly died. Carol was devastated--but not just
because she lost the love of her life. After his death, Carol learned that Howard
had secrets, and one of them--an almost $3 million debt to the IRS--fell right into
her lap. Carol claimed not to know anything about the tax fraud, since finances
had always been Howard's department, but no one cared. As his surviving
spouse, legally, Carol was responsible.
This multilayered story is about more than a woman who discovers her life and
marriage weren't what she thought. It's also very much a story about the aftermath
of loss and betrayal, as Carol shares what it's like to pick up the pieces of her
fractured life, for herself and her son--and learn to be something she'd never been

Saved by Beauty
Adventures of an American Romantic in Iran

Roger Housden
Poet, adventurer, and unapologetic romantic Roger Housden travels to Iran
to learn about the people, the culture, and the art of this misunderstood land.
Forty years ago, Roger Housden discovered the poetry of Rumi and Hafez,
read tales of exotic Sufis, and was carried away by the music and wisdom of a
culture that reached back over three thousand years, a culture that gave us our
word for paradise. He wanted to see if the Iran of his imagination continued to
exist, or whether it had been lost forever. What he discovered was a country of
remarkable contradictions.
An overwhelmingly young nation--70 percent of the population is under
25--where use of the worldwide web and of plastic surgeons is as common as in
New York, there is also a deep national pride in the country's art, traditions, and
historical achievements. Housden leads us into the mountains of Kurdistan to join
the Sufis in their ceremonies, then on to the fabled cities of Isfahan and Shiraz,
introducing us to a cast of Iranians ranging from famous artists and filmmakers, to
politicians, sheikhs, and religious leaders, to waiters, shopkeepers, and students.
We learn about the rich history, the delicious foods, the intricate architecture, and
of course, the incredible music and poetry of Hafez and Rumi. Housden takes
ON SALE 5/17/2011 Rumi as his guide on the journey, and the poet's wisdom becomes a touchstone.
BROADWAY When Housden's return home is cast in doubt by the Iranian security services,
HARDCOVER who threaten him with five years in jail, Rumi's words become, not only a source of
comfort, but also a point of common ground with his captors.

Centuries of June
A Novel

Keith Donohue
For fans of Nicholson Baker and David Mitchell, a multilayered, lively, and
wholly original novel from bestselling author Keith Donohue.
Set in the bathroom of an old house just before dawn on a night in June,
Centuries of June is a black comedy about a man who is attempting to tell the
story of how he ended up on the floor with a hole in his head. But he keeps getting
interrupted by a series of suspects--eight women lying in the bedroom just down
the hall. Drawing from 500 years of myths and legends in America, Centuries of
June is a stunning tour de force by a writer whose last novel, Angels of
Destruction, was hailed as "Beautiful and wrenching" (Washington Post Book
World).

Key Points/Quotes
Originality: A dazzling departure in terms of style and subject matter, this is an
imaginative romp in which each chapter is set in a different time period and written in a
corresponding literary style.
Established writer and international acclaim: Donohue is the bestselling author of The
Stolen Child, which was a New York Times bestseller and has been sold around the
ON SALE 5/31/2011 world.
CROWN Furthering reputation: Centuries of June should establish Donohue as a major
HARDCOVER contemporary American novelist.

Sister
A Novel

Rosamund Lupton
As one woman risks everything to uncover the truth about her sister's last
moments, this debut novel with a knockout twist shows that nothing is as
durable--and as exceptional--as the bond between sisters.
Nobody knows a sister like a sister.
Beatrice's little sister, Tess, has been found dead, apparently by suicide. Bee's
friends, her fiancé, and even her mother accept the fact that moody, impulsive
artist Tess killed herself. But only Bee knew that Tess was pregnant with her first
child, and she is convinced that something more sinister is responsible for her
sister's untimely death. Moving into Tess's apartment, throwing herself headlong
into her sister's life--and all its secrets--Bee becomes single-minded in her search

for a killer. Her family and the police see her as a grieving sister in denial,
unwilling to accept the facts of the case. But as a determined Bee gives her
statement to the lead investigator, her story reveals a predator who got away with
murder--and an obsession that may cost her her own life.

The Murder of the Century
The Gilded Age Crime That Scandalized a City &
Sparked the Tabloid Wars
Paul Collins
For readers of popular history such as Erik Larson's Devil in the White City,
a gripping story of a Gilded Age crime of passion that shocked America.
In Long Island, a farmer found a duck pond turned red with blood. On the
Lower East Side, two boys playing at a pier discovered a floating human torso
wrapped tightly in oilcloth. Blueberry pickers near Harlem stumbled upon neatly
severed limbs in an overgrown ditch. Clues to a horrifying crime were turning up
all over New York, but the police were baffled: there were no witnesses, no
motives, no suspects.
The grisly finds that began on the afternoon of June 26, 1897, plunged
detectives headlong into the era's most perplexing murder. Seized upon by
battling media moguls Joseph Pulitzer and William Randolph Hearst, the case
became a publicity circus.
Re-creations of the murder were staged in Times Square, armed reporters
lurked the streets of Hell's Kitchen in pursuit of suspects, and an unlikely trio--an
anxious cop, a cub reporter, and an eccentric professor--all raced to solve the
crime. What emerged was a sensational love triangle and an even more
sensational trial: an unprecedented capital case hinging on circumstantial
ON SALE 6/14/2011 evidence around a victim that the police couldn't identify with certainty, and that

Seven hundred miles away, in Texas, Miss Baby has the hardened heart of a
woman who has been used by men in every possible way, yet she is desperate for
true love. When she meets a stranger, a man who claims he can't remember his
real name or his past but who seems gentle and trusting, Miss Baby thinks she

Before Versailles
A Novel of Louis XIV

Karleen Koen
Louis XIV is perhaps one of the best-known and most glamorous monarchs
ever to grace the French throne. But what was he like as a young man--the
man before Versailles? Bestselling house author Karleen Koen takes us
back to a place and time where the decisive king was just beginning to
establish the strength and wealth of his kingdom--despite the many forces
pushing against him.
After the death of his prime minister, Cardinal Mazarin, twenty-two-year-old
Louis steps into governing France. He's still a young man, but one who, as king,
willfully takes everything he can get--including his brother's wife. While the love
affair between Louis and Princess Henriette burns, his brother's jealousy coupled
with his mother's rage at Louis's lack of self-control, sets the kingdom on the road
toward unmistakeable scandal. Every woman wants him. He must face what he is
willing to sacrifice for love.
But there are other problems lurking outside the chateau of Fontainebleau: a
boy in an iron mask has been seen in the woods, and the king's finance minister,
Nicolas Fouquet, has proven to be more powerful than Louis ever thought--a man
who could make a great ally or become a dangerous foe...

The Talk-Funny Girl


A Novel

Roland Merullo
Marjorie Richards--now a wife and mother--tells the story of her rescue from
a bizarre, abusive childhood. By turns dark with a peculiar breed of insanity
and bright with love and resilience, The Talk-Funny Girl is a testament to
one young woman's courage and the healing force of love.
Marjorie is raised by parents so intentionally isolated from normal human
society that they develop their own dialect, a kind of mountain hybrid of English
that displays both their ignorance of and disdain for the wider world. As the nearby
factory town sinks deeper into economic ruin, as girls Marjorie's age mysteriously
disappear, and as her parents fall under the influence of a sadistic cult leader,
Marjorie is rescued from her own private hell in unique fashion: she is hired by a
man, himself a victim of abuse, who is building what he calls "a cathedral," right in
the center of town.
Day by day, Marjorie's skills as a stoneworker increase, and so does her
discomfort with the bitter rules of her family life. Slowly, she discovers what is
lovable within herself, and this new confidence enables her to break free, start a
family of her own, and try to fully heal her wounds without passing the pain on to
her own children.

The Profession
A Thriller

Steven Pressfield
The bestselling author of Gates of Fire, The Afghan Campaign, and Killing
Rommel--the "master storyteller" (Publishers Weekly) and "finest military
writer alive, bar none" (Stephen Coonts)--returns with a stunning, chillingly
plausible near-future thriller about the rise of a privately financed and global
military industrial complex.
It's 2032, and powerful, cutting-edge mercenary armies are the only means the
governments and corporations that rule the world have to control global chaos
and protect their riches. When the commander of Force Insertion, the world's
largest private military, launches an audacious, ingenious revenge campaign to
take over the United States, his top commando Gilbert "Gent" Gentilhomme finds
it necessary to launch his personally and professionally most menacing mission:

to take out his mentor. In this action-jammed, lightning-fast, and brutally realistic
high-tech military thriller, Steven Pressfield leaves the past in the dust to create a
heart-stopping story of very near future warfare and introduce a terrifically
appealing recurring character who is the last best hope to save the United States
from self-destruction.

Don't Kill the Birthday Girl


Tales from an Allergic Life

Sandra Beasley
In this often humorous but always enlightening memoir, Sandra Beasley, an
award-winning poet and former American Scholar editor, intertwines her
personal experience as "Allergy Girl" with the cultural history of food
allergies.
Sandra Beasley has had severe allergies to certain foods her whole life. When
butter is deadly and eggs can make your throat swell shut, cupcakes and other
joys of childhood are out of the question--and so Sandra's mother used to warn
guests against a toxic, frosting-tinged kiss with "Don't kill the birthday girl!"
Now an award-winning poet, essayist, and editor, Sandra has written an
accessible narrative about a subject that has only been addressed in either
medical guides or recipe books: a cultural history and sociological study of food
allergies, melded with her own humorous and sometimes heartbreaking
experiences. From her short-lived gig as a restaurant reviewer to the dates that
ended with trips to the emergency room, Sandra writes with verve and style about
the struggle of a modern young woman to come to terms with a potentially deadly
disorder.

Shut Your Eyes Tight
A Novel

John Verdon
Dave Gurney, protagonist of John Verdon's bestselling thriller debut Think
of a Number, returns to tackle his toughest case yet, a battle of wits with an
implacable opponent who is not only brilliant and murderous, but eager to
target Dave's greatest vulnerability--his family.
Nearly a year has passed since he caught the 658 killer, and superstar
detective Dave Gurney is once again making a go at retirement with his wife,
Madeleine. However, when a young bride is gruesomely and mysteriously
murdered at her own wedding reception, the puzzle proves too tempting to resist.
But what seems at first the senseless act of a deranged gardener soon proves to
be part of a latticework of complex conspiracies and sinister agendas. As Dave
digs deeper he enters a dangerous world of sadistic manipulation, multiple
murders, and appalling criminal enterprises orchestrated by the cleverest mind he
has ever encountered. Meanwhile, his powerful but fraught relationship with
Madeleine is twisted close to breaking as he risks everything to capture an
opponent so cold he will kill for the slightest advantage and so elusive he hardly
seems to exist.

Infidelities
Katharine Weber
For readers of Rich Cohen's Sweet and Low, a fascinating memoir of an
extraordinarily influential American family, from the celebrated author of
True Confections, Triangle, and The Music Lesson.
The Memory of All That is Katharine Weber's memoir of the rich, strange, and
fascinating cast of characters in her family, including her grandmother, Kay Swift,
known both for her own music (she was the first woman to compose the score to a
hit Broadway show, Fine and Dandy,) and for her ten-year romance with George
Gershwin; her great-grandfather, Paul M. Warburg, the creator of the Federal
Reserve System (for which he was vilified by Henry Ford, Charles Lindbergh, and
countless conspiracy theorists as the ringleader of the so-called international
Jewish banking conspiracy), the model for Annie's Daddy Warbucks, and the man
known as the Cassandra of Wall Street for having forecast the Wall Street crash of
1929; and her crazy father, an eccentric filmmaker who made propaganda and
training films for the OSS during World War II and who subsequently invented the
regrettable and forgettable Aromarama movies (yes, you could smell them). The
Memory of All That is an enthralling look at this tremendously influential family as
well as a consideration of how their stories--with their myriad layers of truth and

Finding Everett Ruess
The Remarkable Life and Unsolved Disappearance of a
Legendary Wilderness Explorer
David Roberts
An arresting work of narrative nonfiction that combines the Into the
Wild-like haunting drama of a singular young adventurer-aesthete's
wilderness vagabondage with an investigation of the mystery of his
disappearance in Navajo country that brings to mind Tony Hillerman's
novels.
The unsolved 1934 disappearance in the American Southwest of 20-year-old
solo explorer, writer, and artist Everett Ruess, is among the greatest mysteries in
the annals of exploration and has stirred the kind of passion and speculation
accorded such legendary lost adventurers as Amelia Earhart and Into the Wild's
Chris McCandless. In this definitive account of Ruess's extraordinary life and the
75-plus-year investigation of the riddle of his vanishing, David Roberts eloquently
captures Ruess's tragic genius and ongoing fascination.

Thieves Get Rich, Saints Get Shot


A Novel

Jodi Compton
The next gripping crime novel featuring Hailey Cain from the critically
acclaimed author of Hailey's War and The 37th Hour.
Thieves Get Rich, Saints Get Shot is the follow-up to Hailey's War, in which
West Point dropout Hailey Cain defies a powerful mobster to protect a pregnant
teenager and child. The events of Hailey's War nearly cost Cain her life--they do
cost her one of her fingers, severed in a brutal torture session--but Thieves sees
Hailey back in Los Angeles, second-in-command to rising gangster Serena
"Warchild" Delgadillo.
At the heart of this thrilling sequel is a complex case of stolen identity, ruthless
motives, and violent crime that sends Hailey four hundred miles into the desert to
reclaim her name and chase down the murderer who has taken it.
Fast-paced, suspenseful, and teeming with powerful young characters,
© Allyson Furlong

high-octane talent.

Darkness, My Old Friend
A Novel

Lisa Unger
From the New York Times bestselling author of Beautiful Lies, Die for You,
and Fragile comes a thriller about broken trust that explores our faith in
those we rely on--and how that faith can sustain or shatter us.
Willow acts tough, but when she sees a man digging up a body while she's in
the woods cutting school, she takes off running and drops her cell phone. The
man brings the phone back to Willow's mother and introduces himself as Michael,
explaining that he was looking for an abandoned mine shaft of local lore. Willow's
mother, Bethany, is an author and finds herself interested in Michael despite her
daughter's overactive imagination.
Michael's mother disappeared decades ago, and he's hired a retired detective
and a psychic to help him find out what happened to her. But the psychic can't
help, because all she can see is a man jumping into a river to rescue someone
and in the process losing his own life. That man is Jones, who thinks the psychic

Why Most Americans Remain in Reverse in the Wake
of the Great Recession
Don Peck
For readers of James Kwak's 13 Bankers, a fascinating and harrowing
exploration of the consequences of the Great Recession, by the deputy
managing editor of The Atlantic, Don Peck.
Don Peck's cover story in the March 2010 edition of the Atlantic, "How a New
Jobless Era Will Transform America," was a sensation. It generated more than
700,000 page views on the Atlantic's website in its first three weeks and roughly
100,000 people have printed out the article--in addition to the regular circulation.
The Huffington Post made the piece its lead story within the first 24 hours of its
release. Both President Obama and Larry Summers distributed copies throughout
the White House, and Nancy Pelosi was moved to write about it.
That article was the germ for The Two-Speed Society, which uses a mix of
history, news, reported vignettes, data, new academic findings, and cultural
commentary to paint a devastating portrait of what American life will look like in
the long aftermath of the Great Recession. Every generation will be affected--from
college graduates to retirees. No class or race is immune, from blue-collar to
white-collar to working women and inner-city youths. Almost everyone can
envision themselves, a friend, or a family member when reading The Two-Speed

My Journey Out of Christian Science

Lucia Greenhouse
A poignant, beautifully written memoir about growing up in a faith whose
followers don't believe in doctors--and how those religious values shattered
a family.
Lucia Ewing had what looked like an all-American childhood. She lived with her
mother, father, sister, and brother in an affluent suburb of Minneapolis, where they
enjoyed private schools, sleep-away camps, a country club membership, and
skiing vacations. But when it came to accidents and illnesses, Lucia's parents
didn't take her to the doctor's office; instead, the Ewings made calls to a Christian
Science practitioner.
fathermothergod is Lucia Greenhouse's story about growing up in Christian
Science, in a house where you could not be sick, because you were perfect;
where no medicine, even aspirin, was allowed. In December 1985, when Lucia
and her siblings--by then young adults--discovered that their mother was sick, they
came face-to-face with the reality that they had few--if any--options to save her. At
once an essentially American coming-of-age story and a glimpse into the
practices of the Christian Science religion, fathermothergod is personal memoir at
its heartbreaking best.

An enchanting, poignant memoir from one of Hollywood's most beloved
icons.
Over the past four decades, the landmark television series I Dream of Jeannie
has delighted generations of audiences, and inspired untold numbers of teenage

crown ARCHETYPE
crushes on its beautiful blonde star, Barbara Eden. Part pristine Hollywood
princess and part classic bombshell, with innocence, strength, and comedic talent
in spades, Barbara finally lets Jeannie out of the bottle to tell her whole story.
Jeannie Out of the Bottle is a thrilling insider's look at a glittery life in showbiz,
which takes us behind the scenes of I Dream of Jeannie as well as Barbara's
dozens of other stage and screen performances. But it is also a deeply intimate
memoir of personal tragedy, from a stillborn child and a verbally abusive,
drug-addicted husband to the accidental heroin-induced death of her adult son.
With candor and poignancy, Barbara reflects on the challenges she has faced and
how she has maintained her humor, optimism, and inimitable Jeannie magic
throughout the roller-coaster ride of a truly memorable life.

A Memoir of Family, Fame, and Floundering

Meredith Baxter
The candid, funny, and inspiring memoir of the beloved and iconic star of
the 1970s and '80s who recounts her colorful life as an actress as well as her
struggles with three failed marriages, breast cancer, alcoholism, and her
decision to reveal that she is a lesbian at sixty-two.
crown ARCHETYPE

Meredith Baxter has long been one of America's most beloved television
actresses. She is widely remembered and appreciated for her perceptive
portrayals of intelligent, independent women--most notably her roles as Elyse
Keaton on the long-running Family Ties; the convicted murderer Betty Broderick in
A Woman Scorned: The Betty Broderick Story and Her Final Fury; the journalist
(and breast-cancer survivor) Joyce Wadler in the television film My Breast; and--in
an Emmy-winning turn--the lesbian mother of a teenager in the CBS Special Other
Mothers. Yet in her own life, despite being a fierce advocate for women's rights,
Baxter often sublimated her own needs and identity, in both her career and in her
three marriages. At the same time, she confronted her own alcoholism, battled
breast cancer, and established a foundation. Now cancer-free and sober for the
past nineteen years, she recently orchestrated her own coming-out on the Today
show. With insight and humor, she finally tells the story of her remarkable journey.

Forever
Dr. Pierre Dukan
The revolutionary weight loss plan that has taken Europe by storm is poised
to become the American diet book of the decade.
Dr. Pierre Dukan has helped 5 million Frenchwomen (and men), plus another 5
million in ten other countries, shed excess pounds and keep them off for good.

Now for the first time, American dieters can use the four phases of the Dukan

Out of Character
Surprising Truths About the Liar, Cheat, Sinner (and
Saint) Lurking in All of Us
David DeSteno and Piercarlo Valdesolo
A surprising and revealing look at the hidden psychological forces that
drive us to cheat on our spouse, become wildly jealous for no good reason,
allow ourselves to be fooled by people in power, and exhibit many more of
the puzzling behaviors that shape our lives.
crown ARCHETYPE

Our most commonly held view about the nature of "character," the authors
argue, is completely wrong. Our "character" is not a fixed set of personality traits;
rather, it's a fluid state, shifting constantly at the hand of mental mechanisms
operating beneath our conscious awareness. From loyalty and infidelity, to
hypocrisy and morality, to tolerance and bigotry, to honesty and deceit,
psychologists DeSteno and Valdesolo shine a new scientific light on the dueling
forces that drive the saint and sinner lurking in all of us.

Key Points/Quotes
Tapping into the bestselling genre: As the success of books like Blink, Freakonomics,
Sway, and Predictably Irrational have shown, readers have an endless fascination with
the psychology behind human behavior. This book takes this topic into a yet uncharted

Stop Saying You're Fine
Get What You Want by Getting Out of Your Own Way

Mel Robbins
By a TV and radio personality with a growing platform, this
grab-the-reader-by-the-collar guide offers refreshing advice to those who
feel secretly frustrated and want to launch their lives in a new direction.
Robbins is all about instilling readers with the courage and methodology to

crown ARCHETYPE
eliminate that hard-to-describe lack in their lives. Her compelling premise is that
most of us are secretly dissatisfied. Our rote response to people who inquire how
we're doing is "fine," but at a deeper level we have an "Is that all there is?" feeling
or sense of a dream denied, a yearning suppressed. The truth is, we are our own
worst enemy. Our brains invent reasons not to alter our current life script. By
acting defiantly and seizing small moments of rich possibility--a process Robbins
calls "leaning in"--we can make tiny course deviations add up to huge change. A
full-on assault on "obstacle thinking" and "analysis paralysis", this book doesn't
just offer broad generalities but details the exact sequence of steps we must
follow to break free of inertia and finally seize that thing our heart tells us we want.

Here Is Where
Discovering America's Great Forgotten History

Andrew Carroll
The centerpiece of a National Geographic-backed campaign by bestselling

Andrew Carroll, who is best known for massive, newsmaking cultural initiatives
such as the American Poetry and Literacy Project (to promote poetry) and the

brother saving Abraham Lincoln's son from falling into the path of a train. Carroll
identified the site and from that point forward began compulsively searching for
other forgotten historic locations. Many surfaced in his own neighborhood, causing
him to realize that history is all around us--unknowingly, we immerse ourselves in
it daily. In the spring and summer of 2009, determined to find and identify the

Dick Van Dyke, indisputably one of the greats of the Golden Age of television,

is admired and beloved by audiences the world over for his beaming smile, his
physical dexterity, his perfect comic timing, his ridiculous stunts, and his
unforgettable movie roles. His trailblazing television program, The Dick Van Dyke
Show (produced by Carl Reiner, who has written the preface for My Lucky Life In
and Out of Show Business), was one of the most popular sitcoms of the 1960s,
and introduced another major television star, Mary Tyler Moore. But he was also
an enormously engaging movie star whose films, including Mary Poppins and
Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, are as beloved today as they were when they first
appeared, and have attracted an entirely new generation of fans. Who doesn't

The Next Wave
On the Hunt for Al Qaeda's American Recruits

Catherine Herridge
From the Times Square bomber to the Fort Hood massacre, The Next Wave
uncovers the latest threats from Islamic terrorists and, frighteningly, their
homegrown origin.
It's Al Qaeda 2.0. In a growing number of cases, their followers are just like us.
They are educated here or are born here. The radicalization process can happen
from any laptop and an off-beat kid can reach out and become a dedicated killer in
a matter of months.
In the past year alone, Najibullah Zazi, the Denver airport shuttle bus driver,
pled guilty to a plot to blow up the New York City subway; Major Nidal Hasan
gunned down 13 people at Fort Hood in Texas; a 35-year-old Virginia man,
Anthony Tracy, was arrested for smuggling 272 Somalis, many with al Qaeda ties,
into the United States; Faisal Shahzad attempted to car bomb Times Square, and
mastermind Anwar al-Awlaki, a radical cleric born in New Mexico and now hiding
in Yemen, is directly tied to the 9/11 hijackers and dozens of other plots.
From these "lone wolf" operators, the picture is clear: the next wave of Islamic
terrorism is here and more difficult than ever to stop.

Margaret Hoover
A call to action from Fox News analyst and Bill O'Reilly's "Culture Warrior"
Margaret Hoover to (re)define conservatism so the Republicans can not only
regain control of the government but also be a party that can be embraced
by a younger generation.
In Revamping the Right Hoover presents an alternative to the old (and often
misguided) ideas and stereotypes of Republicans and conservatives while still
being able to reconcile how to be one. She believes that conservatism (and so
also, the Republican Party) has to be (re)branded as Individualism--an inherintely

The Innovator's Manifesto
How Disruption Theory Can Help to Predict the Success
of Companies and Products
Michael Raynor
Deloitte senior consultant Michael Raynor, coauthor of the national
bestseller The Innovator's Solution, in a hard-hitting polemic, argues that
disruption theory, or the theory that the truly great breakthroughs are often
those fringe technologies or prodcuts that completely redefine the category,
is not only a useful idea--it's the only one.
For the first time, Michael Raynor claims, we have a theory that accurately
predicts whether businesses will succeed or fail. Raynor offers conclusive,
never-before published evidence to show that disruption theory is the only theory
in business today that can accurately predict the success or failure of a company
or product. He shows exactly why disruption theory is so powerful--and he

to Great to provide a powerful way of getting a grip on the big issue facing
not only business but nonprofits and cultural organizations: declining
demand.
A core business title as useful for CEOs and middle managers as for the pastor
of a church wondering how best to build a congregation and the head of the local
symphony looking to diversify and build an audience.

Key Points/Quotes
Timely: Declining/slack demand affecting publishing and every other industry is not a
recessionary blip but a structural change. Tremendous economic potential is lost,
companies shrink or disappear, jobs vanish, progress stagnates. Here's how to get a grip
on the problem--and what to do about it.
Big idea: Increasing demand for a product or service is not a matter of pulling a few
levers to, say, increase advertising but understanding the underlying social,
psychological, and economic reasons for demand increasing or declining.
Revealing stories with a twist build crossover potential: Such as Zipcar's defiance of

Riches to Rags
The Rise and Fall of America's Rich

Robert Frank
A joyride through the schadenfreude of the greatest one-time destruction of
wealth since the 1930s, told with humor, anthropological close-ups, and a
subtle tone

Key Points/Quotes
Great storyteller/New York Times bestselling author: Robert Frank chronicled the era
of unparalleled conspicuous consumption in Richistan and returns with a second colorful
story of the other side of the coin.
From voyeurism to schadenfreude: If Richistan was ogling behind the curtain of the
super rich, Rags is about the consolation--joy even--in the downward mobility of the
wealthy.
© Lynton Gardiner

Penthouse view of the crash: Robert Frank takes you inside the private world of
today's nouveau poor, profiling the fall of people such as Edith Blixseth (member of the
Forbes 400 in 2008) who went from a 150-person household staff to having her phones
shut off because she couldn't pay the bill.
The big picture: The wealthy have gone from risk-taking, go-for-broke, nothing's going
to hold me back types to being afraid--a "paralyzed plutocracy"--under siege, with a
bunker-type mentality. Frank assesses what this means for the economy, for example
ON SALE 7/12/2011 investing in risk-taking ventures that move the economy forward, create jobs, and
CROWN BUSINESS produce wealth.
HARDCOVER The media's go-to guy: With his book, Wall Street Journal articles, and popular blog

Chasing Goldman Sachs
How the Masters of the Universe Melted Wall Street
Down...And Why They'll Take Us to the Brink Again
Suzanne McGee
"A disturbing account of how Goldman Sachs Group Inc. became a
seductively successful Pied Piper, luring banks down a path to destruction."
--Bloomberg
In Chasing Goldman Sachs, author Suzanne McGee provides a penetrating
and disturbing look at the forces that have transformed Wall Street into a
risk-taking behemoth that spun out of control and took the economy and millions
of 401(k)s down with it. Primary among these forces was "Goldman Sachs envy."
The demons that drove Richard Fuld of Lehman Brothers and Stanley O'Neil of
Merrill Lynch, and the rest of Wall Street, to ever-greater risk were perverse
incentives and the illusion that they could make even more money than Goldman
Sachs (where $11.6 billion in profits in 2007 led to an average bonus of $660,000).

Losing My Virginity
The Autobiography INTERNATIONAL
BESTSELLER

Richard Branson
A new edition of Richard Branson's internationally bestselling
autobiography, updated with his reflections on the last decade.
When Richard Branson first founded a mail-order music business called Virgin
in 1970, he was just twenty years old, an irreverent young man with visions of
meeting his favorite musicians, making a bit of profit if he could, and above all,
having fun. Little did he realize that he was founding a business empire that would
place him at the heart of the cultural zeitgeist for several decades and make him
one of the richest men in the world. As head of Virgin, Richard produced or signed
many of the most famous musicians in pop history, from the Rolling Stones to
Janet Jackson. He made billions, revolutionized air and space travel, challenged
Coke and Pepsi on their home turf, and did it all without ever losing his sense of
fun and adventure (or his irreverent sense of humor). Now he looks back on his
extraordinary life to share some of his wildest adventures and reveal his unique
philosophy on business and success.

Why She Buys
The New Strategy for Reaching the World's Most
Powerful Consumers
Bridget Brennan, CEO of Female Factor
The book that applies the Mars-Venus differences to business and presents
a fresh way to accomplish the crucial task of making, marketing, and selling
products and services to women.
Women make almost all important buying decisions. They are the
uber-deciders, yet most companies are failing to effectively market and sell to
them. Bridget Brennan shows how to overcome this "knowing-doing" canyon.

Key Points/Quotes

The Road from Ruin
How to Revive Capitalism and Put America Back on Top

Matthew Bishop, U.S. Business Editor of The


Economist, and Michael Green, Coauthor of
Philanthrocapitalism
Capitalism died when Wall Street imploded. Stuck with a world-class mess,
everyone is asking "Now what?" Using the lessons of past crises, The Road
from Ruin presents an agenda for rebooting the capitalist system.
The Road from Ruin breaks new ground by wringing lessons of crises from the
Great Depression of the 1930s on, and then developing an agenda for a
progressive modern capitalism so the "animal spirits" can create wealth but be
kept in check so they don't drive the car off the cliff yet again. Lessons are drawn
from the 1970s oil shock; the 1987 stock market crash; the S&L crisis of the late
1980s; Japan's great deflation and lost decade of the 1990s; the Asian financial
crisis of the late 1990s; and the Long Term Capital Management debacle and the
great panic of the past 18 months.

AN OUTPOURING OF PRAISE FOR


The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks
“One of the most graceful and moving nonfiction books I’ve read in a very long time...
Floods over you like a narrative dam break, as if someone had managed to distill and purify
the more addictive qualities of Erin Brockovich, Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil,
and The Andromeda Strain. More than ten years in the making, it feels like the book
Ms. Skloot was born to write.”
—Dwight Garner, New York Times

“I could not put the book down ... Through Lacks, the story of modern medicine and bioethics—
and, indeed, race relations—is refracted beautifully, and movingly.”
—Entertainment Weekly

“Indelible ... A heroic work of cultural and medical journalism. With it, Skloot reminds doctors,
patients, and outside observers that however advanced the technology and esoteric the science,
the material they work with is humanity, and every piece of it is precious.”
—Laura Miller, Salon.com

“Moving ... an impressive nonfiction debut... A real-life detective story, The Immortal Life of
Henrietta Lacks probes deeply into racial and ethical issues in medicine... The emotional impact
of Skloot’s tale is intensified by its skillfully orchestrated counterpoint between two worlds.”
—Steve Silberman, Nature

“An inspiring story, full of poignancy and humanity ... Above all it is a human story of
redemption for a family, torn by loss, and for a writer with a vision that would not let go.”
—Boston Globe

“Funny, tender, sometimes violent ... Folds together a sweeping history of scientific
triumph and shame, a dramatic true story of Skloot’s long struggle to win the family’s
confidence, and a cast of characters whose anger, generosity, pride, and improbable grace
make them impossible to forget.”
—Dallas Morning News

“Riveting... raises important questions about medical ethics... It’s an amazing story...
deeply chilling... Whether those uncountable HeLa cells are a miracle or a violation,
Skloot tells their fascinating story at last with skill, insight, and compassion.”
—St. Petersburg Times

“Rich and compelling. Through ten years of painstaking research, done with the help of
Henrietta’s daughter, Deborah, Rebecca Skloot has crafted a unique piece of science
journalism that is impossible to put down—or to forget.”
—Seed

YORK TIMES
BESTSELLER

Rebecca Skloot
Her name was Henrietta Lacks, but scientists know her as HeLa. She was a
poor black tobacco farmer whose cells--taken without her knowledge in
1951--became one of the most important tools in medicine, bought and sold
by the billions, with devastating effects on her family. Now in paperback,
this phenomenal New York Times bestseller tells a riveting story of ethics,
race, and medicine colliding; of scientific discovery and faith healing; and of
a daughter's persistent desire to know her mother.

stuff our bodies are made of and the impact of the book on the Lacks family.

YORK TIMES
How a Dead Man and a Bizarre Plan Fooled the Nazis BESTSELLER

and Assured an Allied Victory


Ben Macintyre
From the internationally celebrated, bestselling author of Agent Zigzag
comes an extraordinary account of the most successful--and certainly the
strangest--deception ever carried out in World War II.
Near the end of WWII, two British naval officers came up with a brilliant and
slightly mad plan to mislead the Nazi armies about where the Allies would attack
southern Europe. To carry out the plan, they would have to rely on the most
unlikely of secret agents: a dead man.
Ben Macintyre's dazzling, critically acclaimed, bestselling book chronicles the
extraordinary story of what happened after British officials planted this dead
body--outfitted in a British military uniform with a briefcase containing false
intelligence documents--in Nazi territory, and how this secret mission fooled Hitler
into changing military positioning, paving the way for the Allies to overtake the
Nazis.

REISSUE
The True Story of Nietzsche's Sister and Her Lost Aryan
Colony
Ben Macintyre
From the bestselling, acclaimed author of Operation Mincemeat and Agent
Zigzag, the fascinating story of Elisabeth Nietzsche's insane attempt to
found a utopian colony in the jungles of Paraguay in the late 19th century.
In 1886 Elisabeth Nietzsche, the bigoted, imperious sister of the famous
philosopher, founded a "racially pure" colony in Paraguay together with her
husband, anti-Semitic agitator Bernhard Förster, and a band of fair-skinned fellow
Germans. In 1991 Ben Macintyre tracked down the survivors of Nueva Germania,
as the colony was called; he found a strange, tight-lipped people, still
interbreeding to the point of genetic deterioration. Digging into recently opened
German archives, Macintyre tells how Elisabeth, who returned to Germany in
1893, grafted her anti-Semitic, nationalist ideas onto her brother's philosophy,
building a mythic cult around him. Elisabeth later became a mentor to Hitler; her
stately funeral in 1935 was attended by a tearful Führer. Laced with mordant
irony, Macintyre's brilliant piece of investigative journalism adds weight to the
view, shared by many scholars, that the Nazis' use of Friedrich Nietzsche's ideas
to justify their evil deeds and doctrines was a perversion of his thought.

The Life and Times of Adam Worth, Master Thief


NATIONAL
REISSUE BESTSELLER

Ben Macintyre
The vastly entertaining saga of Adam Worth, the most notorious bank thief
of Victorian society and the inspiration for Arthur Conan Doyle's Professor
Moriarty.
The Victorian era's most infamous and iconic thief, Adam Worth was known as
the Napoleon of crime. Suave, cunning, and fearless, Worth learned early that the
best way to succeed was to steal. And steal he did. Following a strict code of
honor, Worth won the respect of Victorian society. He also aroused its fear by
becoming a chilling phantom, mingling undetected with the upper classes, whose
valuables he brazenly stole. His most celebrated heist: Gainsborough's grand
portrait of the Duchess of Devonshire--ancestor of Diana, Princess of Wales--a
painting Worth adored and often slept with for 20 years. With a brilliant and
colorful gang, Worth secretly ran operations from New York to London, Paris, and
South Africa--until betrayal and a Pinkerton man finally brought him down.
Here is a grand, dazzling tour into the gaslit underworld of the 19th century,
and into the doomed genius of a criminal mastermind.

The Nazi War Criminals Who Escaped and the Quest to


Bring Them to Justice
Guy Walters
Written with the pacing and intrigue of a thriller, the first complete and
definitive account of the pursuit and capture of Nazi fugitives--now in
paperback.
In this deeply researched and compellingly written work of World War II history
and investigative reporting, journalist and novelist Guy Walters tells the whole
story of one of the most shocking and important aspects of the war: how the most
notorious Nazi war criminals escaped justice; how they were pursued, captured,
or able to remain free until their natural deaths; and how the Nazis were assisted
while they were on the run by "helpers" ranging from a Vatican bishop to
Himmler's daughter, and even members of the Western intelligence services.
From its haunting chronicle of the monstrous mass murders the Nazis
perpetrated and the shadowy nature of their postwar existence to the challenges
of hunting them down--including the surprising truth about the world's most
legendary Nazi hunter Simon Wiesenthal--Hunting Evil is a monumental work of
nonfiction and a riveting reading experience.

A Memoir

Beth Greenfield
In the tradition of such powerful personal memoirs as My Lobotomy by
Howard Dully and Name All the Animals by Alison Smith, a beautifully
written, wry, and funny memoir of growing up and moving forward after a
shattering loss.
Twenty-five years after she survived the car accident that killed her adopted
younger brother, Adam, and her best friend, Kristin, when she was twelve,
journalist and writer Beth Greenfield is still coming to terms with the loss that
devastated her family.
Tracing her life of beach clubs and ballet before the accident through the
harrowing aftermath of the tragedy, and the myriad emotions she experiences as
the loss continues to affect her life years later--guilt, blame, anger,
regret--Greenfield exquisitely captures both the pain and the pleasure of loving,
losing, and enduring.

A Forgotten Grape and the Untold Story of American


Wine
Todd Kliman
A rich romp through untold American history, this is the tale of a
little-known American grape and the fascinating cast of characters who
have devoted their lives to bringing it to greatness.
Fans of the eccentric characters and wine lore that inhabit The Billionaire's
Vinegar will find much to love in The Wild Vine, a literary exploration of two
entwined mysteries: an obscure grape that rose to prominence, only to disappear,
and its biggest present-day champion, dot-com-millionaire-turned-vintner Jenni
McCloud. Created in the mid-1800s by a suicidal doctor in Virginia who
subscribed to Jefferson's belief that America would one day produce a native
grape suitable for winemaking, the Norton grape produced a wine that was
praised at a competition in Vienna later that century--long before California wines,
made from European varieties, rose to international distinction. After the grape's
brief soar to fame, it dissolved just as quickly into oblivion but was kept alive by
bootleggers during Prohibition. Now, generations later, the irrepressible and
enigmatic McCloud and others are reviving America's underdog grape, our
country's homegrown answer to Chardonnay and Merlot.

A Journey Through the Historical Underbelly of Europe PAPERBACK
ORIGINAL

Tony Perrottet
This sharp and funny new travel narrative, which combines a present-day
journey with a whimsical trek through 18th century history, will appeal to the
readers of Bill Bryson, J. Maarten Troost, and Paul Theroux.
Beginning with the premise that "sex has always been the unspoken inspiration
for travel," celebrated travel writer Tony Perrottet retraces the route of the "Grand
Tour" through Europe, a tradition long enjoyed by the upper-class. But instead of
seeking out Europe's cultural treasures, he digs deep for its "historical filth"--from
the Hellfire Clubs of Hogarthian Britain and Marquis de Sade's castle in Provence
to the Renaissance bordellos of Venice and the erotic grottos of ancient Capri.

The King's Mistress


broadway

A Novel

Emma Campion
An enthralling novel that will appeal to fans of Philippa Gregory and Alison
Weir, The King's Mistress is the story of Alice Perrers, the notorious
mistress of King Edward III. As one of the King's favorites, she leaves
jealousy and hatred in her wake, and some will stop at nothing to see her fall
from grace.
From childhood, Alice learned obedience in all things, so when at the age of
fourteen her father chooses a husband for her, she dutifully marries him--at the
cost of losing the love of her mother forever, as well as the family she holds dear.
Her marriage, however, is short-lived, and when Alice's husband suddenly
disappears, she discovers that he had many dangerous secrets, which have now
put a price on her own head and that of her beloved daughter. King Edward III and
Queen Philippa offer her safety and sanctuary, but she soon realizes that she will
be forced to embrace her fate once more. The king's affections are more than
paternal, and she must obey his desires in order to save her family--even if it
means destroying herself.

A Novel YORK TIMES
BESTSELLER

Lisa Unger
From the New York Times bestselling author of Beautiful Lies, Black Out,
and Die for You comes a novel of corrosive secrets, tenuous connections,
and the all-encompassing strength of a mother's faith.
Despite their mostly happy marriage, Maggie and Jones find themselves at
odds when their son Ricky's girlfriend vanishes--Maggie is positive Ricky had
nothing to do with Charlene's disappearance, while Jones isn't as sure. With
Charlene gone, the memory of another young girl who went missing some twenty
years ago is haunting the town. That story didn't have a happy ending, and almost
everyone has an unrevealed reason to keep the horror of it firmly in the past.
As Jones and the police turn their focus on Ricky, Maggie must find out the
truth about what happened all those years ago. In order to save her son and the
young woman whose life hangs in the balance, she'll test the bonds of her
community--and find out just how fragile they can be.

A Novel

Scott Sigler
New York Times bestselling author Scott Sigler returns with another
heart-pounding ride that's part Frankenstein-style cautionary tale, part
monster movie, and part technothriller, as science accidentally unleashes a
fearsome ancient predator on the modern world.
On a remote island in the Canadian Arctic, a team of top geneticists has
cracked one of medicine's most lucrative riddles: they've discovered a technique
that could provide transplant organs to millions, for a nominal fee. The method?
Illegal. The result? A computer-engineered living creature, an animal whose
organs can be implanted in any person, with no chance of transplant rejection.
There's just one problem: these ancestors are not the docile herd animals the
scientists envisioned. Instead, their work has given birth to something big,
something evil.
The ultimate predator is now on the loose...and it's very, very hungry.

Beatrice Wilkes, a local stock company actress, and Geneva Langley, one of

Against the backdrop of a raging fire and its aftermath, they must form an alliance
that becomes a fight for their very lives. With lush, atmospheric writing and a

talent.
Alethea Black has created a brilliant, intoxicating, and wholly fresh collection
that features a piercing sense of optimism and yearning. These thirteen irresistible
stories offer up great entertainment, writing that shines with nuance and precision,
and a coterie of vulnerable, memorable characters who are at some sort of
emotional crossroads or turning point and who are ready and open for the
epiphanies we all hope await us. Brimming with irony, insights about the
unpredictable nature of life, the unbearable beauty of fate, and the exploration of
the particular power that one moment, or one decision, can have to transform us, I

How Our Intuitions Deceive Us

Christopher Chabris and Daniel Simons


The creators of one of psychology's most famous experiments use
remarkable stories and counterintuitive scientific findings to demonstrate an
important truth: Our minds don't work the way we think they do. We think
we see ourselves and the world as they really are, but we're actually missing
a whole lot.
The truth is that much of what our eyes discern is out of focus, and we're
particularly apt to miss the unexpected. Our memories are similarly faulty,
sometimes weaving a fond memory out of whole cloth. And there's no solace in
our confidence or knowledge, or even what we believe to be the simple interaction
of cause and effect. Our minds, as the authors demonstrate, excel at many
cognitive tasks, but far fewer than we imagine.
But The Invisible Gorilla is much more than a catalog of human failings. Chabris
and Simons explain why we succumb to these everyday illusions and what we can
do to innoculate ourselves against their effects, lessons that have profound
applications in business, politics, medicine, science, and elsewhere.

Discovering the World . . . via Its Most Dangerous
Buses, Boats, Trains, and Planes
Carl Hoffman
Journalist Carl Hoffman presents himself with a unique, daredevil travel
challenge: circumnavigate the globe exclusively by means of the
statistically most dangerous airlines; most interminable, overcrowded train
and bus lines; most packed, rickety ferries; and slowest, most old fashioned
conveyances of every kind.
Indonesian Ferry Sinks. Peruvian Bus Plunges Off Cliff. African Train Attacked
by Mobs. Whenever he picked up the newspaper, Carl Hoffman noticed those
short news bulletins, which seemed about as far from the idea of tourism--travel
as the pursuit of pleasure--as it was possible to get. So off he went, spending six
months circumnavigating the globe on the world's worst conveyances. The
Lunatic Express takes us to some of the world's most teeming cities and remote
places: from Havana to Bogotá on the perilous Cuban Airways; Lima to the
Amazon on crowded night buses where the road is a washed-out track; across
Indonesia and Bangladesh by overcrowded ferries that kill 1,000 passengers a
year; on commuter trains in Mumbai so crowded that dozens perish daily; across
Afghanistan as the Taliban closes in, and, scariest of all, Los Angeles to
Washington, D.C., by Greyhound.

The Outer Banks House


broadway

A Novel

Diann Ducharme
As the wounds of the Civil War are just beginning to heal, one fateful
summer would forever alter the course of a young girl's life.
During the summer of 1868, seventeen-year-old Abigail Sinclair, daughter of a
plantation owner, finds and fights to save an unlikely love with Benjamin Whimble,
a good-natured, ambitious, and penniless local fisherman whom she is
encouraged by her parents to tutor in reading and writing in return for serving as
her father's fishing guide during the Sinclairs's time in Nags Head. When, against
everything he claims to represent, Ben becomes entangled in Abby's father's Ku
Klux Klan dirty work, the terrible tragedy and surprising revelations that one hot
Outer Banks night brings forth threaten to tear them apart.

Key Points/Quotes
COMBINES HISTORY, ROMANCE, AND COMING-OF-AGE DRAMA: Beautiful,
book-smart, and boxed-in, Abby Sinclair tries to adjust to life in a post-war,
Reconstruction South. This critical turning point in the nation's history provides a
dramatic backdrop for the crucial personal changes Abby undergoes over the
course of the summer.

How I Went Undercover to Rescue the World's Stolen YORK TIMES


BESTSELLER

Treasures
Robert K. Wittman, Founder, FBI Art Crime Team,
with John Shiffman
In this memoir, the creator and former leader of the FBI's Art Crime Team--a
man whose legendary undercover work has led to the recovery of $225
million worth of stolen art--reveals the stories behind his remarkable
accomplishments.
Armed with a scholar's passion, a con man's smile, and a daredevil's nerves,
Bob Wittman has pulled off awe-inspiring undercover operations all over the
world, recovering hundreds of antiquities ranging from $35 million Rembrandts to
an original copy of the Bill of Rights.
In a nail-biting narrative that reveals why Wittman has been called "a living
legend" by the Wall Street Journal and "the most famous art detective in the
world" by the London Times, Priceless pulls back the curtain on his extraordinary
career--and tells a story about the world's biggest unsolved art theft that the FBI
doesn't want you to hear.

Laura Fraser
From the bestselling author of An Italian Affair, a new travel memoir about
whether it's possible, in midlife, for a woman to have it all.
On a fortieth birthday tryst, the Parisian professor who helped Laura get over
her divorce tells her that he has a new girlfriend. His news comes at a moment
when Laura is wondering whether her passion for travel is interfering with what
most women seem to want at her age: a husband, a family, a settled life.
Then on a trip to the South Pacific, Laura's world turns upside down. For a
while, she becomes a travel writer afraid to travel. Slowly, Laura copes with her
ordeal and realizes that although she doesn't have the life she used to anticipate,
she still adores her existence. Yet she craves long-term companionship and
travels the world in search of love while seeking wisdom from an Amazonian
shaman, reporting in Rwanda, and tangoing in Buenos Aires.
But when she's dumped on her forty-fifth birthday, Laura is oddly relieved, and
realizes she doesn't want to wait for a man anymore.

The Bells

broadway
A Novel

Richard Harvell
The Bells is the confession of a thief, kidnapper, and unlikely lover--an
utterly original historical novel, and a dazzling debut.
Moses Froben was born in a belfry high in the Swiss Alps, a bastard son
banished to the church tower to ring each day the Loudest and Most Beautiful
Bells in the land. His life is simple but he is content, until the day his father
recognizes Moses' singular sense of hearing and its power to expose his sins.
Cast into the world with only his ears to protect and guide him, Moses finds refuge
in a historic choir and becomes its star singer, only to endure the horrifying act of
castration, meant to preserve his angelic voice.
In a letter to his son, Moses recounts his humble birth in 18th-century
Switzerland, his life as a novice monk, and of noble friends and forbidden lovers
he cherished during his chaotic years on Europe's most celebrated stages. But he
also reveals the astonishing secrets that have shadowed his fame: How did
Moses Froben, world-renowned musico, come to raise a son he could never have
sired?

TRADE
PAPERBACK
ORIGINAL

Mark Beaumont
The remarkable true story of one man's quest to break the record for cycling
around the world, as told by the man himself.
When Mark Beaumont set out to cycle the world he was 24 years old, eager
but naïve, with no real idea of what the journey would require of him. By the time
he returned, triumphant, a world-record 194 days after he began, he had been
changed completely. He'd traveled four continents and more than a dozen
countries, made lifelong friends and been sick, mugged, and run over,
transformed his body into a lean cycling machine, and learned--really
learned--what it takes to do something truly extraordinary. Now, drawing on his
memories, diary entries, and correspondence from throughout the journey, Mark
has written the complete story. Told with honesty, humor, and wisdom, The Man
Who Cycled the World is at once an unforgettable adventure, an insightful travel
narrative, and an impassioned paean to the joys of the open road.

The One That I Want

A Novel

Allison Winn Scotch


Now in paperback, the novel from New York Times bestselling author
Allison Winn Scotch that asks: If we are granted a look into our future, can
we change what lies ahead...and should we?
Tilly Farmer is thirty-two years old and has the perfect life she always dreamed
of: married to her high school boyfriend, working as the school guidance
counselor, trying for a baby. Perfect.
But a chance meeting with a childhood friend in a fortune teller's tent at the
local fair changes everything. "I'm giving you the gift of clarity," her friend says.
"It's what I always thought you needed." And soon enough, Tilly starts seeing
things: Her alcoholic father relapsing, staggering out of a bar with his car keys; her
husband uprooting their quiet life, a packed U-Haul in their driveway. And even
more disturbing, these visions start coming true. Suddenly Tilly's perfect life, so
meticulously mapped out, seems to be crumbling around her. And as she furiously
races to keep up with--or even change--her destiny, she faces the question, which
is the life she wants? The one she's carefully nursed for decades--or the one she
never considered possible?

REISSUE
The Story of Queen Anne

Jean Plaidy
The final book in the seven-book Novels of the Stuarts series by Jean
Plaidy, Courting Her Highness will be a hit with Plaidy's well-established
fans who've come to both the reissued Queens of England series and the
Novels of the Tudors.
It's the beginning of the eighteenth century and William of Orange is dying.
Soon Anne is crowned queen, but to court insiders, the name of the imminent
sovereign is Sarah. Beautiful, outspoken Sarah Churchill had bewitched Anne
through the auspices of the Duke of Marlborough, Sarah's husband and perhaps
the greatest military genius England has ever known. Sarah believes she is
invincible, and she is, until she installs a poor relation of hers into court as royal
chambermaid.
Plain Abigail Hill seems the least likely challenger to Sarah's place in her
Highness's affections--but challenge it she does, in stealthy yet formidable ways.
While Anne engages in her private tug-of-war, the nation is obsessed with
another, more public battle: succesion. Anne is sickly and childless, the last of the
Stuart line. This final novel of the Stuarts weaves larger-than-life characters
through a dark maze of intrigue, love, and destruction, with nothing less than the

More Davids Than Goliaths

NEW
YORK TIMES
A Political Education BESTSELLER

Harold Ford, Jr.


One of the Democratic Party's brightest lights and a rising star in American
politics describes the lessons he has learned from public service, and
shares what he believes is next for our country.
Harold Ford, Jr., has long distinguished himself as a charismatic,
results-oriented politician with fresh ideas. His career began at age twenty-six
after he won his father's congressional seat, serving his Tennessee district for ten
years. He stepped into the national spotlight with his electrifying keynote at the
2000 Democratic National Convention, and in 2006 his reputation was further
shaped during the closest Senate race in Tennessee's history, which he lost. Ford
feels passionately that our country's best days are ahead, and in More Davids
Than Goliaths, he presents his mission statement for America.
Reflecting on what he's learned from his extended political family, the slings
and arrows of the campaign trail, and those across our nation who inspire him,
More Davids Than Goliaths explains Ford's conviction: "At its best, leadership in
government can solve, inspire, and heal." Along the way, Ford reminds us that in
America, there are more Davids than Goliaths, more solutions than problems,
more that unites us than divides us.

No Place Like Home

broadway
A Memoir in 39 Apartments

Brooke Berman
The Year of Yes meets Sex and the City in this irreverent, telling, and often
outrageous look at life on the hunt for artistic success, love, and a place to
call one's own.
Brooke Berman moved to New York as a wide-eyed eighteen-year-old, eager
to call the big city home. But in the twenty years and thirty-nine apartments she's
inhabited along the way, she's realized that a "home" is much more than an
address. At times gossipy, saucy, and thoughtful, No Place Like Home follows
Brooke's adventures with each apartment, from the heavenly to the horrible, as
she learns how to heal the past, let go of excess, and keep a sense of humor. No
Place Like Home reminds everyone of the age-old struggle not just to find an
address, but to build a home within.

Notes from the Night


broadway

A Life After Dark

Taylor Plimpton
The splendor, sorrow, and possibility of a single night out in New York City.
Notes from the Night begins at 11 p.m., when Taylor Plimpton and his best
friend, Zoo, plot their evening. Over the next eight hours, and over the course of
several clubs and countless drinks, Taylor Plimpton draws down all the evenings
of his life into a single, dramatic event in which love--brotherly and
romantic--drugs, dancing, and the hard-to-pin-down allure of prowling the city in
the wee hours come alive to create the first book that penetrates without
destroying the fantasy that in New York City at night truly anything is possible.

Key Points/Quotes
GREAT CATEGORY FOR TRADE PAPERBACK: Notes from the Night is a
young man's book, but it is also for anyone who has ever been a young man and
who wants to remember what life was like when an evening ended with the
sunrise (and a hangover).

A Novel REISSUE

Katharine Weber
Katharine Weber's first novel shifts between past and present as a young
photographer tries to rescue her best friend from a destructive affair.
Harriet Rose, 26, is an American photographer just winning recognition for her
work. A travel fellowship brings her to visit her best friend and former roommate,
Anne Gordon, in Switzerland. In an ongoing letter to her boyfriend, Harriet reports
on strange developments in Anne's life, most notably her affair with a much older
married man, which seems to be leading to a disastrous conclusion. Before she
can rescue Anne, events take a series of unexpected turns, and Harriet must
reexamine her own life and past, and come to terms with the difficulties and
possibilities of human relationships.

Twelve Rooms with a View


broadway

A Novel

Theresa Rebeck
How would it feel to go overnight from living in a trailer park to a
twelve-room apartment overlooking Central Park in a landmark Victorian
building?
Tina is at her mom's funeral when her sisters first mention the apartment that
their impoverished, alcoholic mother left to her three cash-strapped daughters.
The huge, eleven-million-dollar apartment had belonged to Bill, their mother's
reclusive husband of just a few years. Of course, Bill's children aren't going to let it
go out of their family without a fight, so since Tina doesn't have a job, the sisters
install her in the apartment to solidify their claim ("possession is nine-tenths of the
law"). Tina meets the neighbors, who'd like to evict her, and starts to get involved
in their lives. There's the eccentric botanist growing a mossery in Tina's kitchen,
the hot, self-absorbed son of the co-op board president, the teenager who
becomes Tina's ally and spy, a ghost that she hears crying at night, and the sweet
but frequently hassled doorman who gives her invaluable insight into the lives of
the building's tenants. As all sides prepare for war, Tina begins to love her new
home, find things to like in the stepbrothers she'd never met, and discovers her
place in her family and the world.

group of four successful men together, childhood friends who called themselves
the "VIPs," signaling the big dreams they all once had. The men, who haven't
seen one another in years, are greeted at the Hotel Gansevoort by an openly
hostile T.N.T., who asks them a single, stunning question: "Which one of you

An American Woman's Adventures in the Oldest City on


Earth
Jennifer Steil
Now in paperback, a fascinating and lively memoir of the author's
experiences in Yemen--one of the oldest and most conservative Muslim
countries--where she worked for a year as the editor of the Yemen Observer,
an English-language newspaper, and discovered a surprising romance.
Restless in her career and her life in general, Jennifer Steil, a gregarious,
liberal New Yorker, initially accepts a short-term opportunity to teach a journalism
class to the staff of the Yemen Observer in Sana'a, the beautiful, old, and very
conservative capital of Yemen. Seduced by the eager reporters and the enticing
prospect of spreading democratic journalistic ideals there, she extends her stay to
a year as the paper's editor in chief. But she is quickly confronted with the
conservative realities of Yemen--and their surprising advantages. In seeing the
blatant mistreatment and strict governance of women by their male counterparts,
she learns to appreciate the strength of Arab women in the workplace; and in
forging surprisingly deep friendships with women and men whose traditions and
beliefs are in total opposition to her own, she learns a cultural appreciation she
never could have predicted.Here she offers a fascinating portrait of an enigmatic
corner of the world.

The Devil's Tickets

broadway
A Vengeful Wife, a Fatal Hand, and a New American
Age
Gary Pomerantz
Master of narrative nonfiction Gary Pomerantz provides a unique window
into America of the 1920s and '30s in this fascinating story of a deadly card
game that spawned a celebrated murder trial and that says much about our
peculiarly American obsessions.
As the Roaring Twenties' last peals rang through a nation about to slip into the
Depression, Myrtle Bennett, a glamorous Kansas City housewife, killed her
philandering husband over a bridge game. Her trial would become a national
sensation, pulling into its orbit such larger-than-life characters as political
superstar turned defense attorney James A. Reed, who would give stirring
speeches about the sanctity of womanhood even as he philandered with a
feminist trailblazer who lived next door, and Ely Culbertson, the P.T. Barnum of
bridge, who would sense in the trial's controversy an opportunity to catapault
himself and his wife to national fame and untold wealth.
Through these characters, The Devil's Tickets captures both a uniquely colorful
age and a tension in marriage that is eternal.

Anatomy of an Epidemic
broadway

Magic Bullets, Psychiatric Drugs, and the Astonishing


Rise of Mental Illness in America
Robert Whitaker
The award-winning author of Mad in America exposes the big lie behind the
stunning rise in the number of disabled mentally ill Americans over the past
fifty years.
In an era of modern psychiatry and so-called wonder drugs for depression, why
has the number of mentally ill people increased sixfold over the past fifty years?
Could it be that the drug-based paradigm of care is in fact fueling this plague?
Robert Whitaker, the acclaimed science and history writer, returns to the field
he knows best, tearing through the conventional wisdom regarding the history of
psychiatry and uncovering a dark narrative of medical deception. As Whitaker
points out, the number of disabled mentally ill in the United States has
skyrocketed in recent decades while the psychopharmacology revolution has
been unfolding.
Anatomy of an Epidemic explores these unsettling developments in the
manner of a narrative mystery, piecing together fifty years of science and drug
history to reveal how the false story we've been told about mental disorders has
created an epidemic in mental illness.

The Improper Life of Bezellia Grove

broadway
A Novel

Susan Gregg Gilmore


A young woman searches for love in the most unlikely of places while
fighting against the injustice of her time in this lyrical novel that is part
Jeanne Ray and part Fannie Flagg.
When Bezellia Grove, a privileged white girl from a prominent Nashville family,
has a clandestine affair with her black handyman's son, Samuel, their romance is
met with anger and fear from both families. Black servants aren't supposed to eat
at the same table as their white employers. Black boys aren't supposed to make
conversation with white girls. And they certainly aren't supposed to fall in love. In a
time and place where rebelling against the rules carries a steep price, Bezellia
must decide how far she'll go to create the world as she believes it should be.

The Neighbors Are Watching


broadway

A Novel

Debra Ginsberg
Secrets and lies à la Desperate Housewives blend with Ginsberg's
trademark savvy crime writing in her newest novel, an engrossing mix of
domestic drama and suspense.
A pregnant teenager shows up on her biological father's doorstep, and the
neighbors can't stop talking. Joe Montana is a handsome restaurant manager who
failed to tell his wife that he fathered a baby with an ex-girlfriend 17 years ago.
Diana's bombshell arrival in their quiet cul-de-sac sets off a chain reaction of
secrets and lies that threaten to engulf the neighborhood along with the
approaching flames from a Santa Ana-fueled California wildfire.
A woman scorned, a former reality TV star, and a suburban housewife with her
own checkered past--these are just a few of the warring neighbors who will be
forced to band together when Diana disappears in the aftermath of the wildfire
evactuation, leaving her newborn baby--and many unanswered questions--behind.

Battling Pirates & Recovering Stolen Ships in the
World's Most Troubled Waters
Max Hardberger
Seized throws open the hatch on the shadowy maritime world, where
third-world governments place exorbitant liens against ships, pirates seize
commercial vessels with impunity, crooks and con artists reign supreme on
the docks and in the shipyards--and hapless owners have to rely on sea
captain Max Hardberger to recapture their ships and win justice on the high
seas.
A ship captain, airplane pilot, lawyer, teacher, writer, adventurer, and
raconteur, Max Hardberger steals ships--cargo-carrying freighters--for a living. In
Seized, he takes us on a real-life journey into the mysterious world of freighters
and shipping, where fortunes are made and lost by the whims of the waves, and
where obscure maritime laws result in the illegitimate seizure and outright piracy
of multimillion-dollar ships--freighters that the desperate owners hire Max
Hardberger to "extract," or steal back, by putting together a mission-impossible
team flown in under cover of darkness. Max's tales take readers behind the
scenes of the multibillion-dollar shipping industry, as he recounts his efforts to
retrieve illegitimately seized freighters from New Orleans to the Caribbean; from
East Germany to Vladivostok, Russia; and from Greece to the jungles of

The Stuff That Never Happened


broadway

A Novel

Maddie Dawson
Funny and sexy, tender and titillating, The Stuff That Never Happened is a
big, brilliant novel brimming with truths about marriage, family, and love.
Grant and Annabelle McKay have had a long, stable marriage, complete with
two grown children, thousands of dinners at their scarred oak table, and fond sex
(which Grant schedules for every Wednesday morning so they won't forget). But
Annabelle is in love with another man.
Twenty-six years ago, in the first chaotic days of her marriage to Grant,
Annabelle met Jeremiah. She's clung to that passionate affair ever since, though
she and Grant have sworn never to speak of it. Now that the kids have moved out
and Grant seems to be more interested in writing his book than talking to his wife,
Annabelle can't stop wondering if she made the right choice. But when she's
called to New York City to help care for her pregnant daughter, Annabelle runs
into Jeremiah and must finally decide which man truly possesses her heart--and
whether she can pledge herself to either one of them for the rest of her life.

A Novel of the Grey Sisters PAPERBACK


ORIGINAL

Ella March Chase


In an age in which begetting sons was all that mattered and queens rose
and fell on the sex of their child, three girls with royal Tudor blood were
born to the Duke and Duchess of Suffolk, parents with a passion for
gambling. The stakes they would wager: their daughters' lives against
rampant ambition.
Lady Jane Grey is fourth in line to inherit her great uncle Henry VIII's throne,
and her parents, Henry and Frances Grey, are determined to make their shy,
scholarly daughter queen of England. Sixteen-year-old Jane ascends the throne
and rules for nine days--the price of her parent's ambition is Lady Jane's life.
Jane's younger sister, Katherine Grey, becomes lady-in-waiting to the queen
who executed her older sister, then serves Elizabeth Tudor who is determined to
humble "the upstart Grey." Burning under the humiliations Elizabeth deals her,
Katherine comes close to stealing her cousin's throne and risks the wrath of the
queen for love.
And finally, Lady Mary Grey: a dwarf with a twisted spine. "Crouchback Mary"
never hopes to win a man's devotion. In an effort to protect people she loves,
Mary manages a triumph of the spirit that surprises the whole court.

This Time Together NEW
YORK TIMES
Laughter and Reflection BESTSELLER

Carol Burnett
Now in paperback, the runaway bestseller This Time Together is 100 percent
Carol Burnett--funny, irreverent, and irresistible.
Carol Burnett is one of the most beloved and revered actresses and
performers in America. Her show was seen each week by millions of adoring fans
and won 25 Emmys in its remarkable 11-year run. Now, in This Time Together,
Carol lets her hair down and tells one funny, touching, memorable story after
another. Filled with engaging anecdotes about growing up poor; her remarkable
friendships with stars such as Jimmy Stewart, Lucille Ball, Cary Grant, and Julie
Andrews; and the background behind famous scenes like the moment she swept
down the stairs in her curtain-rod dress in the legendary "Went with the Wind" skit,
this poignant look back allows us to cry with the actress, rejoice in her success,
and finally, always, to laugh.

An Absolutely Phony Guide


PAPERBACK
ORIGINAL

The Bureau Chiefs


In the grand tradition of The Onion and The Daily Show, the media satirists
behind the sensationally popular Twitter feed @FakeAPStyleBook have
produced the definitive guide on how (not) to write, tuned to the precise
frequency of the Internet age.
Write More Good is at once a warped manual on language and a sly sendup of
the collision of old and new media. ("Welcome to the exciting world of newspaper
journalism! Since you're looking to write for a newspaper, it's safe to assume you
haven't read one recently, but don't let those stories scare you....") No modern-day
journalist or blogger can afford to miss out on tips like:
How to properly cite Penthouse letters ("Cite like any other work of fiction. You don't
think stuff like this really happens, do you?")
How to respond professionally to online comments ("First, breathe deeply and ask
yourself: 'Could this message merely be a cat walking across an unattended laptop?'")
How to structure a celebutainment news story on Paris Hilton, American Idol, or
Sarah Palin ("Ignore the traditional inverted pyramid structure, where the most important
information goes at the beginning and the least significant or lightest at the end. Since
making these distinctions will be impossible, instead just put shit wherever.")

She Ain't Heavy, She's My Mother
A Memoir

Bryan Batt
The Emmy Award-winning actor who plays Sal Romano on Mad Men offers
an homage to his mother in this charming and hilarious memoir about being
raised by an eccentric and very loving woman in 1970s New Orleans.
Gayle Batt is the kind of woman who wears black chiffon cocktail dresses while
eight months' pregnant. She is the kind of woman who says "yoo-hoo" and
"sweetie pie," and one who didn't let her husband's infidelity and alcoholism tear
her family apart. She is a true-to-form strong-willed Southern belle.
In She Ain't Heavy, She's My Mother, star of the AMC hit Mad Men's Bryan
Batt pays tribute in a way that any Louisianian will appreciate, and readers
everywhere will adore. Writing in a style that is equal parts inspiring, touching, and
hilarious, Batt chronicles his life--and his mother's steadfast presence--from
growing up gay in the South, to landing principal roles on Broadway and Mad
Men, to opening the ever-popular Hazelnut boutique in his beloved hometown of
New Orleans.

The 4-step plan to break your tech addiction and regain ORIGINAL

balance in your life


Daniel Sieberg
From a leading technology reporter comes the first self-help book to
address America's newest addiction.
Anxiety about the red blinking light on your Blackberry? The impulse to google
the answer to every question? The urge to text while driving? The need to tweet
every observation?
We all know someone who needs a digital diet. Technology has overwhelmed
our daily lives to the point of constant distraction and many of us can no longer
focus on a single task or face-to-face conversation without wanting to reach
out--or retreat--to the virtual world every few minutes, or even every few seconds.
Daniel Sieberg has devised a foolproof 28-day plan to regain control, focus, and
true connection in life. This program will enable us to manage and use the
technology in our lives to our advantage, without letting it control us.

"In the course of my work I have built an airstrip in Burundi, helped deliver a

when lost in the deserts of Chad, taken cover from ricocheting bullets in
Baghdad and negotiated with a rebel warlord in Darfur. I hope you don't
have to do the same. But if things get dangerous, this guide will help
you--and those with you--to survive."
Drawing on decades of experience as an international humanitarian aid

An unflinching, humorous, and uplifting memoir about food, love, body
image, and living life to the absolute fullest, no matter what your jean size.
Based on Kim Brittingham's popular blog and widely publicized essay "Fat Is
Contagious," Read My Hips is a sincere, authentic, hopeful, and offbeat memoir of
how Brittingham learned to ditch dieting, love her body, and live life large. She
openly explores her complex relationships with food and dieting (from the earliest
age she turned to pastries in times of trouble), sex and dating (she almost always
had to ask the guys out, but they often said yes), exercise and health (it took her
years to enjoy physical activity), and love (nude self-portrait photos, shockingly,
helped her to finally appreciate her own body).

YORK TIMES
Find Your Own Path to Fulfillment BESTSELLER

Peter Buffett
From the son of Warren Buffett, a warm, witty, inspirational, bestselling
book that encourages us to take chances while maintaining a core of strong
values.
Most people probably think that having billionaire investor Warren Buffett as a
father makes life easy. But, as Peter Buffett learned and shares, personal success
is about building your own character, not simply using a family platform to get
ahead.
In Life Is What You Make It, Peter Buffett, a musician and composer, shares
the important lessons learned from his parents, an upbringing based on instilling
honorable values and cultivating self-reliance. He explains the reasoning behind
his father's decision not to give his children an inheritance, imparting how
important it is for each person to define his or her own path, regardless of their
wealth, background, or name.

Triumph
Life After the Cult--A Survivor's Lessons

Carolyn Jessop with Laura Palmer


The author of the New York Times bestseller Escape returns with a moving
and inspirational tale of her life after she heroically fled the cult she'd been
raised in, her hard-won new identity and happiness, and her determination
to win justice for the crimes committed against her family.
In 2003, Carolyn Jessop, 35, a lifelong member of the extremist Mormon sect
the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints (FLDS), gathered
up her eight children, including her profoundly disabled four-year-old son, and
escaped in the middle of the night to freedom. Jessop detailed the story of her
harrowing flight and the shocking conditions that sparked it in her 2007 memoir,
Escape.
In Triumph, Jessop tells the real, and even more harrowing, story behind the
2008 FLDS raid and sets the public straight on much of the damaging
misinformation that flooded the media in its aftermath. She recounts the setbacks
as well as the successes, while weaving in details of her own life since the
publication of her first book. Jessop also shares with readers the sources of
strength that allowed her not only to survive and eventually break free of FLDS
mind control, but also to flourish in her new life. An extraordinary woman who has

Reflections of My Father, Ray Charles

Ray Charles Robinson Jr. with Mary Jane Ross


An honest, revealing, and poignant memoir about Ray Charles by his son,
Ray Charles Robinson Jr.
Ray Charles, the musician, has been well documented. But Ray Charles the
man, the husband, and--especially--the father, remains unknown. For the first
time, Ray Charles Jr. shares his personal memories about growing up as this
legend's eldest son. You Don't Know Me is packed with never-before-told stories
of his home life. Though he doesn't shy away from the painful facts of the
addiction and adultery that nearly destroyed them both, Ray Charles Jr. tells his
story with clarity, insight, and compassion. Readers and fans of Charles's music
will discover a new side to the icon and a deeper appreciation of the man behind
the performer.

The Divine Life of Animals
One Man's Quest to Discover Whether the Souls of
Animals Live On
Ptolemy Tompkins
For readers of Jeffrey Moussaieff Masson and Eckhart Tolle, a journey
through 20,000 years of history and myth in search of the answer to a single
question: Do animals have souls?
Anyone who has ever mourned the loss of a cherished pet has wondered
about the animal soul, yet both scientists and religious authorities have long
scoffed at the idea of animals in heaven. In this wise, immensely readable book,
Ptolemy Tompkins embarks on a quest for the answer. Equally at home with
mainstream and alternative spiritual philosophies, Tompkins takes us from the
savannas of Africa to the earth's first cities to the early days of the great faith
traditions of both East and West, rescuing ancient insights and blending them with
vivid stories about animals today--from a dwarf rabbit named Angus to a manatee
named Moose to a black bear named Little Bit.

Tour de Lance
The Extraordinary Story of Lance Armstrong's Fight to
Reclaim the Tour de France
Bill Strickland
Updated with a revealing new epilogue, this is the gripping story of Lance
Armstrong's return to cycling and his attempt to win another Tour de France.
Lance Armstrong is a worldwide icon, indisputably one of the greatest cyclists
who has ever lived. After battling cancer and becoming an inspiration to millions,
Armstrong won the Tour de France a record-breaking seven consecutive years
before retiring from competition in 2005.
Four years later, at thirty-seven years old, Armstrong decided to come out of
retirement and go for the win yet again in 2009. He was racing for no salary, in a
season when his greatest rival--Tour de France, Tour of Italy, and Tour of Spain
champion Alberto Contador--was on his own team.
Cycling insider Bill Strickland had unprecedented access to Armstrong, Johan
Bruyneel, and the team. He takes readers behind the scenes during the 2009
racing season and along for the ride on the Tour de France with a dramatic
mile-by-mile account. Offering a penetrating and candid glimpse into the man
behind the myth, Tour de Lance goes beyond a single season or a single race to
reveal the heart of the sport and the soul of the cyclist.

Aftermath
A Guide to Preparing for and Surviving Apocalypse 2012

Lawrence E. Joseph
In his follow-up to the highly successful Apocalypse 2012, Lawrence Joseph
asseses the risks and proposes strategies to prevent and control the
damage done to our planet and our daily lives in the aftermath of the likely
apocalyspe.
In Apocalyspe 2012, Joseph appraised the likelihood of planet-wide
catastrophe in 2012. Now, he answers the most pressing question to arise from
the investigation: What do we do about it all? Written in the same wry, entertaining
style as Apocalypse 2012, Aftermath brings together investigative reportage,
historical research, scenario planning, and practical advice to help control the
damage should the world as we know it end in 2012. Joseph analyzes the
likelihood of 2012 as the year to end all years with both healthy skepticism and
healthy respect.

Key Points/Quotes
GREAT TRACK RECORD: The paperback of Apocalypse 2012 was very
successful, and we expect Aftermath to perform in paperback just as well.

Midnight Movie TRADE
A Novel PAPERBACK
ORIGINAL

Tobe Hooper
From legendary horror director Tobe Hooper comes a horror novel that
mixes fact and fiction to tell the story of what happens when one of
Hooper's films causes a strange contagion to spread across America,
forcing Hooper to delve into long-forgotten corners of his past to save
thousands of lives and solve the mystery.
As Midnight Movie opens, Tobe Hooper is attending a festival screening of his
"lost" film, a movie that Tobe wrote and directed when he was 15 years old and
that hasn't seen the light of day for more than 30 years. Over the coming days,
Tobe learns that terrifying, seemingly supernatural events are befalling all those
who saw the movie that night. Soon, the audience members' friends are affected,
too. And their friends. And their friends. The effects are growing exponentially, and
before long, people are dying by the thousands.
Suspecting that the solution to the movie's strange power lies in his own past,
Tobe begins a desperate cross-country quest to understand the film's 30-year-old
origins... and come to terms with his own secrets.

Martha Beck
A new edition of the national bestselling memoir Expecting Adam, about a
mother who is determined to keep her unborn son despite his prenatal
diagnosis of Down syndrome--and her surprising and moving journey that
results.
John and Martha Beck had two Harvard degrees apiece when they conceived
their second child. Further graduate studies, budding careers, and a growing
family meant major stress--not that they'd have admitted it to anyone. It was hard
enough to admit it to themselves. As the pregnancy progressed, Martha battled

constant nausea and dehydration. And when she learned her unborn son had
Down syndrome, she battled nearly everyone over her decision to continue the
pregnancy. She still cannot explain many of the things that happened to her while
she was expecting Adam, but by the time he was born, Martha, as she puts it,
"had to unlearn virtually everything Harvard taught [her] about what is precious
and what is garbage."

Keeper
One House, Three Generations, and a Journey into
Alzheimer's
Andrea Gillies
This award-winning memoir explores the author's challenges as the full-time
caretaker of her mother-in-law, who moves in with the family after she is
diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease.
Winner of the 2010 Orwell Prize and the Wellcome Trust Book Prize, this
searing memoir explores what happens when the author moves with her husband
and three school-age children to a larger house in Scotland in order to become
the full-time caretaker of her mother-in-law, Nancy, who has been diagnosed with
Alzheimer's disease, as well as of her frail and ailing father-in-law, Morris. Writing
with uncommon sensitivity, candor, and insight (as well as flashes of dark humor),
Gillies creates an indelible portrait of the fears, frustrations, rage, guilt, and
isolation that are part of caring for someone with dementia. Seamlessly woven into
this compelling narrative and broadening its appeal (especially to the increasing
numbers of readers who have a friend or family member with Alzheimer's) is a
brilliant analysis of the latest scientific findings and theories on the disease. Even
more profoundly, Gillies, through her probing of the intricate workings of the brain
and memory, confronts the mystery of identity itself.

YORK TIMES

Record
Leslie Kean
The New York Times bestseller. Impeccably researched by veteran
journalist Leslie Kean, this fascinating journalistic endeavor reads like the
best science fiction and investigates the existence of--and government
reactions to--UFOs.
Ten years ago, investigative journalist Leslie Kean received a French military
document about the existence of UFOs and their impact on French national
security. What she learned from this report--a study in which scientists, space
experts, and French Air Force generals ultimately concluded that the only logical
explanation for dozens of encounters with unidentified flying objects was that they
were extraterrestrial--changed the course of her life.
In the years since she received that report, Leslie Kean has followed the facts.
They have led her to NASA officials, U.S. Air Force generals, a former U.S.
governor, a former head of the Federal Aviation Administration's Accidents and
Investigations Division, and government officials from around the world. Now, for
the first time in one place, these experts tell of their own shocking, incredible, and
nearly unbelievable first-person accounts with UFOs.

PAPERBACK
ORIGINAL

and Cigarettes on the Path to Enlightenment


Suzanne Morrison
An insightful and wholly entertaining chronicle of one woman's attempt to
cast aside her fears, neuroses, and materialism in order to find a path to
enlightenment and inner peace, a journey that takes her to an intensive yoga
retreat in Bali where hilarity and discovery ensue.
Before she discovered yoga, Suzanne Morrison's idea of exercise was walking
to the corner store to buy smokes. Living in Seattle as a student, she spent most
of her time inside reading or out at happy hours with friends. But when she turned
twenty-five, a month after 9/11, she started having panic attacks about dying, and
decided it was perhaps time to get spiritual perspective. So she packed her bags
and headed to Bali for a two-month intensive yoga teacher training program,
where she learned that the more she searches for her higher self, the more she
finds herself face-to-face with her death-fearing, fashion-obsessed, chocolate,
sex, and cigarette-craving lower self. Hilarious and utterly absorbing, Yoga Bitch
is a coming-of-age story about the highs and lows of enlightenment.

God in Action
How Living the Faith Can Solve the Extraordinary
Challenges Facing Us Today
Francis Cardinal George, O.M.I.
An important new work on faith and politics from the leading Catholic
intellectual in the United States.
A bracing manifesto from an author unafraid to tackle the moral questions
dividing American public life. In this book Cardinal George defines a unique
American Catholic conscience and discusses the social and political
responsibilities that Catholics need to embrace. Additionally, he looks closely at
contemporary America and the world at large to identify and explain where and
how God is at work today. God in Action should prove indispensable for
stimulating debate as candidates for the 2012 election begin to jockey for position.

Key Points/Quotes
Author: As the president of the U.S. Council of Catholic Bishops (USCCB) and the
Archbishop of Chicago, one of the largest Catholic diocese in the United States, Cardinal
George is one of America's most powerful and influential Catholic leaders. Further,
despite America's large Catholic population, the Church's leadership surprisingly lacks a
figurehead speaker in the media--with God in Action Cardinal George will fill this vacuum,
making him a lightning rod for attention.
ON SALE 5/3/2011 Topic: God in Action will focus on religion and public policy issues, including religious
DOUBLEDAY RELIGION liberty, war, bioethics, law, trade, business, and immigration, reaching the same
HARDCOVER audience that embraced Render Unto Caesar by Archbishop Charles Chaput.
Regional appeal: In addition to George's appeal as a national figure, this book will be
strong in particular regions, such as Chicago and Washington, D.C., home to the USCCB.

Waiting for Christ in the Eucharist

Ronald Rolheiser
The bestselling author of The Holy Longing presents his first book about
one of the most important aspects of faith for hundreds of millions of
Christians, the Eucharist. Perfect for the Catholic market and the author's
established readership, it has also been written with an understanding and
respect for other Eucharistic denominations, such as Lutheran,
Episcopalian, Methodist, and many Presbyterian churches.
More so than anything else, the Eucharist is at the center of many peoples' life,
prayer, and ultimately the way they live their lives. While it draws upon the insights
of various scripture scholars, theologians, and church teachings, it is also contains
Rolheiser's own personal reflections.

Saints Preserved
An Encyclopedia of Relics

Thomas J. Craughwell
Saints Preserved: An Encyclopedia of Relics is the first grand-scale
consumer reference book on the subject of Catholic relics.
A relic is an object connected with a saint (e.g., part of the body or clothing or
something the person has used or touched) and is venerated by the Church.
Many are believed to have special and holy powers, and in this intriguing
compendium, Thomas Craughwell takes us on an exhilarating, and sometimes
downright strange, tour of the various articles that hold special meaning for
Catholics.

Key Points/Quotes
First book of its kind: This is the first comprehensive reference collection covering
relics in the Catholic Church.
Catholic weird: There have been hundreds of successful saint books, but none ever
such as this. These engaging profiles of the parts and things saints have left behind are
full of interesting information. Great for history buffs.
Over 300 entries: Includes information on the relics of many saints (of course), but also
other relics such as the Holy House where Jesus, Mary, and Joseph lived (currently in
Loreto, Italy); the Crown of the Thorns; the Holy Grail; the seven places that claim to

Books on saints are very popular: Includes information on a wide range of saints, from
apostles and martyrs to saints from Africa, Asia, and South America, as well as all of the
978-0-307-59073-2
saints of the United States. Each entry features a history of the relic and a brief biography

Paul Among the People
The Apostle Reinterpreted and Reimagined in His Own
Time
Sarah Ruden
A fresh new look at the letters of Paul which discards centuries of
mistranslation to recover Paul's original message of freedom and dignity for
all, from widely praised expert on the classical world Sarah Ruden, now in
paperback.
In Paul Among the People, Sarah Ruden explores the writings of Paul--the
evangelist regarded by Christians as the greatest interpreter of Jesus' mission--to
show how they might have affected readers in his own time and culture. Paul is a

crown
difficult writer to understand, but with Ruden as the reader's expert guide, it
becomes clear that rather than an enemy of human freedom and dignity, Paul and
the Christian church he helped to spread represented a new alternative to old
ways of thinking, feeling, and living, based on the principles of human freedom
and dignity and the need for people to love one another.

Key Points/Quotes
Controversial: Bringing the context of the classical world to bear on Paul's writings, Paul
Among the People overturns the one-dimensional image of Paul and early Christianity as

Everything Else (Thinline Ed.)


Steven K. Scott
The Greatest Words Ever Spoken collects in one volume every recorded
word of Jesus and organizes his sayings in nine categories and more than

everything Jesus said about life's most pressing questions and concerns in

that Jesus said about a particular issue. With this book, readers can benefit from
Jesus' wisdom in focused installments on hundreds of questions and concerns.
Section intros set a context for Jesus' sayings, making the book useful for
inspirational reading and individual and family devotions; as a resource for
speakers, Bible teachers, and Bible students; and for general-market readers
interested in Jesus as a teacher. And now it is even more affordable and
user-friendly in a new thinline trade paper edition at a much lower price point.

To Be Perfectly Honest
One Man's Year of Almost Living Truthfully Could
Change Your Life. No Lie.
Phil Callaway
We all know how hard it is to consistently tell the truth, even on our best
days. So why did author Phil Callaway accept this daunting, twelve-month
truth challenge?
Phil Callaway, a popular speaker and celebrated author, is no stranger to
awkwardness. He is a repeat victim of unflattering photographs. He has made
personal appearances from Manitoba to Hong Kong, only to be laughed at during
formal banquets and in front of huge audiences. So who better to accept a
challenge that most people would run from? Callaway promised to tell the truth for
a full year, and he wasn't joking. Twelve months later, his journal was crammed
full of success, near-success, and admitted failure. During his experiment with
veracity, he made a disastrous financial investment, fielded long lists of intrusive
questions, attended a class reunion, and waded into hundreds of the most
revealing--and hilarious--situations ever documented. Read what happens when a
Christian author does his level best to always tell the truth. It could change your
life.

state to another state, Miranda sees her chance to break away from the
controlling influences. No one is more shocked than Jack Hanford to receive a call

met once, has been in a serious accident and requested that he serve as her
children's guardian. A university professor, Jack is captivated by the children but

The Chocolate Diaries INCLUDES
Secrets for a Sweeter Journey on the Rocky Road of Life RECIPES

Karen Scalf Linamen


It has been said that even the worst chocolate is better than anything else
on the menu. When life serves up hardship and defeat, there is no recipe
that delivers an instant fix. But humorous self-help author Karen Scalf
Linamen has discovered how to bring chocolate to bear on the sticky
situations in life.
Experts tend to hand out bite-sized bits of advice like food samples at a
grocery store, as if the answers to life's unyielding problems are stuck on the end
of a toothpick. In The Chocolate Diaries, experts take a back seat to everyday
women who share their pursuit of honest, workable solutions to daunting
challenges. They offer no quick fixes or one-size-fits-all answers. But as they
invite readers to harness the power of faith and hope, they cook up fresh, tasty
solutions to life's most bittersweet challenges. The Chocolate Diaries hands over
the utensils and ingredients that women need to nourish their souls as they make
use of motivation, inspiration, and the problem-solving energy that comes with
honest hope.

Indelible
A Novel

Kristen Heitzmann
From Kristen Heitzmann, author of the intriguing Indivisible, comes a new
suspenseful duel between light and darkness exploring how monsters are
not born and what happens when they are created.
When Trevor MacDaniel, a search and rescue volunteer, rescues a boy from a
mountain lion, he forms a bond with Natalie Reeve, the sculptor next door whose
unique gift is also a disability. Their relationship develops, but a reckoning draws
near for Trevor.
Drawn by the heroic story of the boy's rescue on the news, a twisted mind
recognizes its adversary in the first responder, seeing the man as an archangel of
stalwart size and righteousness.
The monster reenacts the nightmare that created him, hoping and praying
each time for a different outcome. Trevor MacDaniel, the perfect foe in
appearance, power, and righteousness, will provide the final test.
Jonah Westfall, chief of police, has not encountered a threat like the one
approaching his town, Redford, Colorado. But he'll do whatever it takes to bring it
down.

GUIDE

for Hope.
Christopher Yuan and Angela Yuan
Out of a Far Country takes a candid and very personal approach to the
ongoing debate over Christians and sexual identity. Christopher Yuan writes
as a sexually abstinent homosexual, and Angela Yuan tells the story of a
deeply conflicted mother who struggled with her son's lifestyle choices.
Christopher Yuan, the son of Chinese immigrants, discovered at an early age
that he was drawn to men sexually. A few episodes of adolescent experimentation
confirmed his decision to enter the gay lifestyle. Meanwhile, his parents struggled
with how to react to his choices in light of their more conventional worldview.
Christopher became a highly successful drug dealer, which led to his arrest and a
prison term. He became a Christian while behind bars, and when he was released
he sought a way to consistently follow the scriptures as a gay man. Angela, his
mother, also became a Christian and learned how to love her son even when he
rejected his family and its values. The solutions that the authors discovered will
surprise readers who most often hear only the extreme arguments on both sides
of this issue.

Too Rich for a Bride
A Novel

Mona Hodgson
In this historical romantic romp from the author of Two Brides Too Many,
businesswoman Ida Sinclair discovers the financial opportunities that
abound in the lively mining town of Cripple Creek--but do romantic
opportunities await her as well?
Ida Sinclair comes to Cripple Creek with one purpose: to become a successful

matchmaking. But Ida's ambition leaves little time for romance, and she quickly
obtains a job working for Mollie O'Bryan, Cripple Creek's infamous but undeniably
successful businesswoman.
Under Mollie's tutelage, Ida moves toward the success she craves. She ignores
her family's reservations about Mollie's business practices and the way the
townspeople avoid her. But she can't ignore the two men pursuing her
affections--Colin Wagner, the dashing lawyer, and Tucker Raines, the traveling

When Ida passes along a batch of false intelligence, several people in the

Love and War NOW IN

Finding the Marriage You've Dreamed Of


TRADE
PAPERBACK

John and Stasi Eldredge


Bestselling author of Wild at Heart and Captivating John Eldredge teams
again with his co-author--and wife--Stasi Eldredge to tackle the most
popular topic of all time: love and marriage.
John and Stasi begin with an obvious but necessary acknowledgment:
Marriage is fabulously hard. The sooner we accept that this is true--even in the
best of marriages--the sooner we can work on building successful unions. John
and Stasi then take turns sharing their perspectives on marriage, adding personal
insights from the difficulties of their own lives. With its open, beautifully written
narrative, Love and War will please not only John and Stasi's core readership, but
also a wider, spiritually minded audience.

Enemies of the Heart REPACK
Breaking Free from the Four Emotions That Control You

Andy Stanley
Are you afraid to look inside?
In this compelling and helpful book, previously published as It Came From
Within!, pastor and author Andy Stanley wrestles with what he calls "four invaders
of the heart"--guilt, anger, greed, and jealousy. One or another of these caustic
emotions sabotages lives on a daily basis and destroys relationships. But Stanley
assures readers that there is hope. In his trademark style--smart, engaging, and
popular--he examines where these powerful forces come from and reveals
effective strategies for overcoming them and moving toward healing and maturity.

Key Points/Quotes
First time in tradepaper: Excellent, relevant insights, now with a fresh title and package.
Bestselling author: Andy Stanley is the author of numerous best-selling titles that have
sold millions of copies.
Practical advice: The author writes in an accessible, easy-to-read, gently humorous

many people's personal issues--from moodiness and insecurity and emotional explosions
to obsessive-compulsive behaviors and addictions.

Breath of Angel
A Novel

Karyn Henley
With the same fantastical, young adult appeal in Kristin Cashore's Graceling
novels and of Becca Fitzpatrick's stories of Nephilim, Breath of Angel will
connect readers with a strong heroine and sweep them into a thrilling battle
of good versus evil.
Breath of Angel immerses readers in a land of angels and humans, shape
shifters and sylvans, where warring brothers have destroyed the only portal to
heaven and stranded tortured souls on earth, and only one young woman--a
chantress--half angel and half human, can restore it. That is, if she isn't turned into
a lost soul herself.
Author Karyn Henley uses her wide and deep knowledge of biblical history,
myth, and language to craft a spellbinding story containing parallels to the
Genesis Cain and Abel account. Like other captivating novels of this genre, the
main character comes of age against nearly insurmountable odds, gaining
courage, discovering identity, and seeking to overcome evil at all costs.

The Canary List
A Novel

Sigmund Brouwer
In this blisteringly-paced novel certain to attract thriller fans who love
exploring the corners where spiritual conspiracy intersects with scientific
reality, The Canary List uncovers the fine--and fatal--line between the
physical and spiritual worlds.
When false accusations rip apart the life of school teacher Crockett Gray, his
only hope of redemption and of reclaiming his son is finding out who has targeted
one of his elementary students, twelve-year-old Jaimie Gregg, for death. But the
truth behind her gift and her abandonment as a baby is a secret that lies at the
heart of a centuries-old witchcraft conspiracy hidden within the Vatican--a secret
on the verge of destroying Christianity for believers all across the world. A secret
that will reveal our own realm is never safe from the other.
© Gaylon Wampler
Key Points/Quotes

The Inconvenient Marriage of
Charlotte Beck
A Novel

Kathleen Y'Barbo
In the newest historical romance romp from Kathleen Y'Barbo, an heiress
intent on freedom strikes a bargain with a financially-troubled astronomer,
but their arrangement may not be as convenient as they think.
Charlotte Beck craves her independence, the chance to live her life as she
pleases, but until she is married, she's forced to stay under her father's roof and
restrictions. After his father dies, Alex Hambly finds himself responsible for his
family's financial well-being. Faced with a dwindling bank account and rising
debts, Alex is running out of options.
The solution to both their problems, Charlotte realizes, is a "marriage of
convenience." Alex will have access to Charlotte's substantial inheritance in
exchange for allowing her to live her own life. But when Alex sets out to win his
wife for real, Charlotte finds her marriage has suddenly become very inconvenient

Where Will You Go from Here?
Recover from Life's Unexpected Setbacks and Step
onto the Path to Something Better
Valorie Burton
Success isn't measured by how we handle the high points in life, but by how
well we bounce back from disappointment.
When life throws you off course, you can do one of two things: wallow in the
ditch where you've landed, or muster the inner strength and courage to climb onto
the path meant for you. In this motivating book, personal and executive coach
Valorie Burton helps readers design their own comeback--whether from financial
ruin, health challenges, relational disappointments, career setbacks, or some
other disrupting life event. Readers will find step-by-step, how-to information for
tapping into their inner resiliency and restructuring their lives on a new and better
pattern. Packed with uplifting, biblical insights, this personal coaching tool helps
people in crisis...
Stop "catastrophizing"
Avoid the thinking traps that sabotage resilience
Use life's challenges to experience "post-traumatic growth"
As they begin to see life shifts as a beginning instead of the end, readers will
nurture the inner resilience to courageously face whatever surprises come their
way.

Restless in Carolina
A Novel

Tamara Leigh
A sassy, southern novel about a plucky widowed crusader bucking
convention to go green and finding love is truly eco-friendly.
Restless in Carolina, the final book in the Southern Discomfort series, focuses
on opossum-toting environmentalist Bridget Pickwick-Buchanan, who has found a
new cause. Refusing to stand by while her family's estate is sold to the highest
bidder, she sets her sights on J.C. Dirk, an eco-friendly developer. Unbeknownst
to Bridget, J.C. has roots in North Carolina. In fact, a portion of the Pickwick
Estate was owned by his family before it was lost to Bridget's great grandfather in
a rigged poker game. Thus, J.C. is very interested in helping out this damsel in
distress, and if she wants to be believe he's doing it out of the goodness of his
heart, all the better. What neither Bridget nor J.C. count on is falling for each
other--or the obstacles that keep them apart.

Key Points/Quotes
Redemptive value: God can heal our hurts if we invite Him in, and forgiveness not only
unburdens the forgiven, but the forgiver.

As Silver Refined NOW WITH

Learning to Embrace Life's Disappointments STUDY


GUIDE

Kay Arthur
Life rarely turns out the way we plan, but what if our disappointments are
really God's appointments--events He is using to make His followers more
like Jesus?
Beloved author and Bible teacher Kay Arthur challenges readers to choose
between being defeated by life's disappointments or emerging from the fires of
trouble, pure and radiant--like refined silver. With characteristic warmth and
candor, she explores the natural human tendency to spiral downward from
disappointment into discouragement, depression, or even despair. Then she helps
readers discover for themselves the biblical truths that will help them break that
cycle, as they learn to embrace trials as the tools God uses to make each person
a reflection of His goodness and grace.

Key Points/Quotes
Now includes the study guide right in the back.
Touching on universal themes of disappointment and discouragement, Kay Arthur
brings fresh perspective that life's difficulties can be redeemed for an eternal purpose.

When Bad Christians Happen to REVISED

Good People EDITION

Where We Have Failed Each Other and How to Reverse


the Damage
Dave Burchett
Skeptics argue that if Christians actually have access to absolute truth, then
Christianity should produce a better grade of human being. Author Dave
Burchett, a Christian, agrees.
Christians follow the most humble Man who ever lived, Jesus Christ. Ironically,
many Christians have concluded that knowing God through Jesus gives them
permission to be arrogant and intolerant. To outsiders, the church often looks like
an exclusive religious club. For insiders, the church frequently is a battleground
where believers fight over ego-driven requirements and secondary doctrinal
issues. These are things that Jesus of Nazareth preached against. Dave
Burchett's family fell victim to the small-minded variety of Christianity, and in this
revised and updated edition of When Bad Christians Happen to Good People, he
presents a new, biblical course of action that relies on God's grace rather than
manmade rules.

Key Points/Quotes
ON SALE 7/19/2011 Expanded content: A outdated chapter was dropped, a new chapter was added
WATERBROOK PRESS

$14.99/$16.99 Can. Practical: Delivers direct, workable solutions that the book UnChristian only hints at.

Torn
Trusting God When Life Leaves You in Pieces

Jud Wilhite
A practical, sensitive, and biblically rich pastoral letter that brings fresh
hope for those who are suffering painful setbacks in health, relationships or
finances.
Living at the epicenter of the economic and housing collapse of recent years,
Las Vegas pastor Jud Wilhite has helped hundreds deal with the pain and grief of
dashed hopes and overwhelming odds. His new book, Torn, offers hope to those
who are wrestling with the aftermath of personal trauma--insecurity, anger, injured
relationships, depression and spiritual doubt. Drawing deeply on biblical sources
like the Book of Job and Paul's letters, Wilhite helps readers move beyond just
wrestling with the "whys" of pain and disappointment to embrace the "Who" they
can trust in the midst of any suffering. His tone is compassionate, encouraging,
and straightforward. And as in his previous titles, the gritty backdrop of Las Vegas
brings a unique and convincing edge to Jud's advice.

Key Points/Quotes
Timely topic: Torn is a response to pressing emotional and spiritual needs arising from
the Great Recession.
ON SALE 8/16/2011 Timely voice: Jud connects well with emergents, millennials, and a wide range of "least
MULTNOMAH BOOKS likely to succeed" spiritual seekers.

among the nation's most innovative multi-site churches. Jud is well connected with

Friend
Enjoying the Personal Presence of the Holy Spirit in
Your Daily Life
Robert Morris
The Holy Spirit, often misunderstood and even ignored, is actually a
wonderful companion who wants to help you navigate all of life. Here are the
biblical answers that bring clarity on an often controversial topic.
For many people, the Holy Spirit is the "mystery" partner of the trinity--"God the
Father is understandable; Jesus the Son has a clear identity; but the Holy
Spirit--how does He fit in? What does He do?" In this contemporary, insightful,
thoughtful, and easily-accessible book, Robert Morris drops theological jargon and
offers a pleasing, clarifying explanation of the Holy Spirit's role in the believer's
life: More than all else the Spirit wants to listen, to speak, and to offer help--just
like the good friend He is. A generation of new believers, as well as those mature
in faith, will welcome the straightforward, biblical answers to their questions on the
Holy Spirit found in Friend.

Key Points/Quotes
A Bible-based discussion of an often misunderstood, controversial issue.
Conversational, candid, and calm tone makes the material accessible to a broad
ON SALE 8/16/2011 spectrum of Christians wanting more information on the role of the Holy Spirit in an
WATERBROOK PRESS individual's life.
HARDCOVER Relieves the fears and clarifies the misconceptions that many Christians have about

Explains the qualities of the Holy Spirit--a person who is compassionate, helpful,
978-0-307-72970-5 engaging, sensitive, knowledgeable, wise, a good listener--in short, a great friend.

Mercy Come Morning
A Novel REPACK

Lisa Tawn Bergren


A last chance with the mother she cannot say she loves...
In Colorado, history professor Krista Mueller awaits news of her mother's
death. It has been more than a decade since Alzheimer's disease first claimed a
part of Charlotte Mueller's mind and memories. But Krista cannot forget the pain
of her childhood. Nor can she face the dying woman who has--despite Krista's
desperate attempts to gain her love--always been far beyond her daughter's
reach. But then a call from New Mexico launches Krista on a dramatic journey of
discovery...toward love and forgiveness. A story of joy, connection and the power
of forgiveness, Mercy Come Morning presents each day as a gift to be opened
and every loved one as a treasure to be rediscovered.

Key Points/Quotes
Best-selling author: Lisa Bergren has sold more than 1.5 million books.
Common life problems: Mercy Come Morning deals with relational issues, the problem
of a distant mother during childhood, and the added pain of a parent suffering
Alzheimer's.
A compelling romance: Krista Mueller is drawn back to those she has lost and left
ON SALE 8/16/2011 behind, including Dane McConnell, a past love whose life she finds herself drawn into

Tender
A Cook and His Vegetable Patch

Nigel Slater
A comprehensive, deeply personal, and visually stunning guide to growing

preparations in the kitchen--with this truly essential book for every kitchen library.

Gluten-Free Cupcakes
50 Irresistible Recipes Made with Almond and Coconut
Flour
Elana Amsterdam
The first collection of gluten-free cupcake recipes featuring almond flour
and coconut flour, from the popular food blogger and author of The
Gluten-Free Almond Flour Cookbook.
Cupcakes are the world's cutest treat--but until now, those on a gluten-free diet
haven't had a cupcake cookbook of their own. Gluten-free guru Elana Amsterdam
re-engineers this favorite dessert for today's dietary needs in this colorful
collection, with classics like Red Velvet Cupcakes and Chocolate Cupcakes and
creative inventions like Ice Cream Sundae Cupcakes. The recipes rely on almond
flour, coconut flour, and agave nectar (some are even vegan and dairy-free) and
don't contain the sometimes difficult-to-source gluten alternatives such as xanthan
gum. Gluten-Free Cupcakes offers delicious sweets--as tasty as their traditional
counterparts--to anyone in need of a little cupcake fix.

Key Points/Quotes
Combination of two food trends: An estimated three million Americans suffer from
celiac disease, for which the only treatment is adherence to a gluten-free diet, and
ON SALE 4/26/2011 cupcakes are a sticky trend with a growing number of dedicated books and shops.
CELESTIAL ARTS A successful author: The author's blog receives 80,000 hits per month; her first book
TRADE PAPERBACK has been reprinted four times since 2009.
Wholesome recipe lists: The recipes do not use refined sugar, artificial dyes, or
complicated gluten-free flour mixes.

Pat the Zombie
A Cruel (Adult) Spoof

Aaron Ximm, Illustrated by Kaveh Soofi


A macabre mash-up of the children's classic Pat the Bunny and the
present-day zombie phenomenon, with the tactile features of the original
book revoltingly re-imagined for an adult audience.
In the hemorrhagic vein of other zombie parodies, Pat the Zombie presents
trusting toddler Judy playing peek-a-boo with a putrefying Paul. Grownup fans of
Pat the Bunny (seven million of them) will find their favorite touch-and-feel
features disturbingly re-created: Judy reaches for Zombie's decaying jaw instead
of Daddy's cheek; Paul caresses Mummy's empty eye socket instead of her
wedding ring. Ximm's twisted wit, Soofi's sick artistic sensibility, and clever
packaging that mimics the original book will bring the undead lurchingly to life in
this camp pop-culture romp.

Key Points/Quotes
Strong sales: Other Pat the Bunny parodies have sold well, and current zombie mania
has propelled multiple zombie titles onto the New York Times bestseller list.
Cult corpses hit comedy jackpot: Previously relegated to cult horror status, the 2004
feature Shawn of the Dead revealed zombies' comedic potential and a mainstream

The Feast Nearby
How I lost my job, buried a marriage, and found my way
by keeping chickens, foraging, preserving, bartering,
and eating locally (all on $40 a week)
Robin Mather
A charming ode (with recipes) to eating well and locally, on $40 dollars per
week, from a recently unemployed food-journalism veteran.
In 2009, Robin Mather found herself unemployed. She consequently moved to
rural Michigan, where she committed to eating three home-cooked, seasonal, and
local meals a day. In essays that chronicle a year of her ambitious project, Mather
explores the confusion surrounding local eating and examines how often we fail to
pay attention to the seasons that surround us. With 150 winning recipes such as
Lemon-Tarragon Pickled Asparagus and Greek-Marinated Grilled Leg of Lamb,
Mather draws on her rich kitchen knowledge, honed by years as a food writer.
This narrative-cookbook hybrid shares encouraging advice for aspiring locavores,
offering both the virtues of kitchen thrift and the pleasures of cooking well.

Key Points/Quotes
Blend of narrative and recipes: The essay-driven text ranges from the personal to the
journalistic, and the recipes, which comprise approximately 40 percent of the book, are
ON SALE 5/24/2011 inspired by the essays.
TEN SPEED PRESS Gourmet home economics: Features instructions on foraging, canning, dehydrating,

Artisan Cheese Making at Home
Techniques & Recipes for Mastering World-Class
Cheeses
Mary Karlin
A contemporary guide to making 100 artisan cheeses at home--from classic
favorites to popular, modern varieties--written by cheese-making authority
Mary Karlin.
In recent years there has been an explosion in the artisan cheese movement
and a kitchen crafting revival. Artisan Cheese Making at Home inspires and
encourages do-it-yourselfers with approachable, easy-to-follow instructions to
produce mouthwatering cheese at home. From quick and satisfying ricotta and
panir to higher payoff cheeses like triple creme camembert, tallegio, and blue
gouda--all of the featured cheeses can be made with readily available milks and
common kitchen equipment. While most other cheese books take a homey
approach to cheese making, this comprehensive, four-color tome embraces the
full range of contemporary artisan-style cheeses and is destined to become a
modern classic. Written by an experienced cooking teacher and filled with
cheese-making tips from some of today's most influential cheese makers, Artisan
Cheese Making at Home proves that hand-crafting cheese is not only easy, but
also a fascinating and rewarding process.

Classic Sourdoughs, Revised
A Home Baker's Handbook

Ed Wood and Jean Wood


This authoritative sourdough baking classic is updated with new recipes
and the authors' recent discovery of a technique that allows the baker to
control sourness while ensuring consistently leavened loaves.
Renowned sourdough authority Ed Wood has traveled the world capturing wild
sourdough cultures and experimenting with baking methods. This new edition of
his baking tome reveals his latest discovery: proofing the sourdough culture
before use gives the baker control over the leavening and taste. Wood builds on
this technique with 100 recipes featuring rustic grains and modern flavors,
including Herb Spelt Bread, No-Knead Kamut Bread, and Malt Beer Bread, along
with recipes for pancakes, bagels, English muffins, breadsticks, and more.

Key Points/Quotes
New method: Wood's recently discovered culture-proofing step is unique, and this is the
first bread book to advocate it.
Foolproof: Sourdough baking can be an iffy proposition, but Wood's method gives
bakers better control.
Health benefits: Evidence suggests that sourdough fermentation yields bread with a
ON SALE 7/12/2011 lower glycemic index and starches that are more healthful and digestible for people with
TEN SPEED PRESS wheat gluten and yeast sensitivities.

How to Tutor Your Own Child
Boost Grades and Instill a Lifelong Love of
Learning--Without Paying for a Professional Tutor
Marina Koestler Ruben, Foreword by Gerald
Richards, Director, 826 National
A top academic tutor gives parents the tools they need to inspire
after-school learning at home, without having to hire a pricey tutor.
Marina Koestler Ruben, in-house tutor at Sidwell Friends School (better known
as the school the Obama daughters attend), knows a thing or two about today's
high pressure for academic achievement. But instead of spending hundreds of
dollars on private tutors or impersonal learning centers, Ruben recommends that
parents nurture after-school learning at home--while strengthening their
relationship with their child. Her holistic guide teaches parents how to incorporate
one-on-one education techniques into homework sessions and day-to-day family
interactions. Built on the "Six-Step Session" format and filled with
creativity-enhancing tips and troubleshooting tricks, this manual shares secrets for
tutoring in any subject--and will inspire parents to inspire their kids.

Key Points/Quotes
Big business: The $4 billion tutoring industry has over-tested kids flocking to Kaplan,

The Gluten-Free Asian Kitchen
Recipes for Noodles, Dumplings, Sauces, and More

Laura B. Russell
The first gluten-free cookbook to focus exclusively on the vibrant cuisines
of China, Japan, Korea, Thailand, and Vietnam.
Asian food poses unique challenges to the gluten-free cook because of its
heavy reliance on kitchen staples such as noodles, soy sauce, and oyster sauce
that typically contain wheat. But with culinary know-how and ingredient
awareness--and a copy of The Gluten-Free Asian Kitchen--any home cook can
quickly and simply turn out full-flavored dishes such as Korean Green Onion
Pancakes, Sticky Rice Dumplings, Chilled Tangy Soba Noodles, Tempura, Soy
Sauce Chicken, and Banana and Sweet Potato Fritters.
Along with sharing easy, approachable recipes, food writer Laura B. Russell
demystifies Asian ingredients and helps readers navigate the grocery store.
Beautifully photographed, this unique volume's wide range of dishes from a
variety of Asian cuisines will appeal to the expanded global tastes of today's
gluten-free cooks.

American Heart Association
Low-Salt Cookbook, 4th Edition
A Complete Guide to Reducing Sodium and Fat in Your
Diet
American Heart Association
For the millions of Americans with high blood pressure and those who are
looking to reduce their sodium intake without sacrificing flavor, America's
most trusted authority on heart-healthy eating presents the revised and
updated fourth edition of their low-salt classic, with more than 50 all-new
recipes and the latest health information.
Most Americans eat more sodium than is good for them, often without realizing
how it may be adversely affecting their health. Over the years, the average
American's intake of salt has increased dramatically, in part because so many of
us have come to rely more on restaurant and processed foods.
Now, the American Heart Association gives us the opportunity to control how
much sodium is in our meals. With more than 200 recipes, such as Broiled Sirloin
with Chile-Roasted Onions; Garlic-Lime Marinated Trout; and Chicken, Barley,
and Spinach Casserole, AHA's Low-Salt Cookbook, 4th Edition, empowers home
cooks to prepare delicious, nutritious meals that focus on fresh and flavorful

Beaten, Seared, and Sauced
On Becoming a Chef at the Culinary Institute of America

Jonathan Dixon
For fans of Top Chef and Iron Chef America as well as Michelin
star-obsessed foodies who dream of becoming a professional chef, Beaten,
Seared, and Sauced pulls back the curtain on America's most revered
cooking school and shares what it's really like to complete the intense
degree program at the Culinary Institute of America.
Millions of Americans fantasize about leaving their dead-end jobs, enrolling in
cooking school, and becoming a chef--but how many would cut it at the cut-throat
degree program at the nation's top culinary school? For the first time in the CIA's
history, Beaten, Seared, and Sauced goes behind the scenes to give readers the
firsthand experience of being a full-time student facing all of the challenges of the
legendary course.
A jack-of-all-trades who had shuffled through a spate of pay-the-rent jobs,
Jonathan Dixon, on the eve of his thirty-eighth birthday, enrolled in the CIA (on a
scholarship) to pursue his one true passion, cooking. In Beaten, Seared, and
Sauced he tells hilarious and harrowing stories of life at the CIA as he and his
colorful cast of classmates navigate the institution's many rules and customs
under the watchful and critical eyes of the school's various instructors. Every part

readers a look into the inner workings of this celebrated New York City restaurant,
which will close at the end of 2010 after a successful twelve-year run.

The Hungover Cookbook

Milton Crawford
For fans of the Schott's franchise, for those who liked the idea of The Book
of General Ignorance but admit that it was, uh, intellectually taxing, and for
anyone looking for a smart novelty book, The Hungoevr [sic] Cookbook
does for the hangover what Eats, Shoots, and Leaves did for punctuation.
Everything you need to know to assess, understand, and improve a
hangover is here: dozens of comforting recipes, very clever graphic tests for
analyzing your state of mind, and quizzes for tracking your progress.
A good hangover brings its victim to a new state of mind--and one that, when
looked at objectively, can be quite fascinating to its host: it can create an
increased awareness of the body, a willingness to eat something usually off limits,
and a fascination with the mind's strange acrobatics. With P. G. Wodehouse's six
hangovers--The Broken Compass, The Sewing Machine, The Comet, The Atomic,
The Cement Mixer, and The Gremlin Boogie--as a starting point, recipes are
tailored to each specific malady, allowing the reader to find a recipe (or just a
menu item) that precisely suits his state of mind--and body. Interspersed with the
recipes are mind games, witticisms, and graphic jokes, insights into hangover
science, quizzes to see if you are still drunk or now just merely hungover, and
ON SALE 5/31/2011 more.

Forty Years of Chez Panisse: The
Power of Gathering
Alice Waters
Before The Art of Simple Food, before the White House garden, and before
farmers markets and sustainable food were en vogue, there was Chez
Panisse.
When she opened Chez Panisse in Berkeley in 1971, Alice Waters thought of
the restaurant as a modest place, where her friends from the neighborhood could
gather. Now, forty years later, Chez Panisse is a national treasure, where the food
revolution was born and where new ideas continue to emerge.
In Forty Years of Chez Panisse: The Power of Gathering, Alice presents a
personal photographic history of the restaurant in its cultural context, full of iconic
pictures from the Chez Panisse archives and vintage menus from special events
throughout the restaurant's history. In her own words, Alice takes you through
each decade as she recounts stories and includes the voices of her chef friends
and admirers who inspired the journey, reflecting on the transformative power of
gathering around food. She marvels at how something so small evolved into an
international movement. Collected in one place, the memories, stories,
photographs, and ephemera in this book pay tribute to the roots of that movement.

The Casserole Queens Cookbook
Put Some Lovin' in Your Oven with 100 Easy One-Dish
Recipes
Crystal Cook and Sandy Pollock
As seen on Food Network's Throwdown! with Bobby Flay, the Casserole
Queens are two women revolutionizing the original one-dish dinner.
Casseroles are back--and better than ever. Long considered relics of the
1950s, these one-dish wonders are striking a chord with modern home cooks
looking for easy ways to put wholesome meals on the table for their families. The
Casserole Queens, who put their Chicken Pot Pie up against Bobby Flay's on
Food Network, share their best casserole recipes in The Casserole Queens
Cookbook, while throwing in a side of retro-cool style.
Four years ago over a couple of salty margaritas, Crystal Cook and Sandy
Pollock came up with an idea for a way that they could bring comfort food--and
families--back to the dinner table, while taking stress out of the equation. Through
their Austin, Texas-based business, customers order from a menu of casseroles
on their website, and the Queens hand-deliver the dinners dressed up in aprons,
heels, and pearls--straight out of The Donna Reed Show. The Casserole Queens
Cookbook shares Crystal and Sandy's simple and delicious recipes, all of which
have been updated from the classics. The Queens use fresh ingredients and
show how to make everything from scratch. Chicken Pot Pie is brought up a notch

Bite By Bite
100 Stylish Little Plates You Can Make for Any Party

Peter Callahan with Raquel Pelzel


For home cooks who love to throw parties, large or small, caterers looking
for inspiration, and those who want to be voyeurs into the glamorous world
of star-studded parties, Peter Callahan, one of the most innovative caterers
of our time, presents a cookbook that showcases the whimsical high style
of his unique savory and sweet small bites.
Peter invented high-end party food as we know it and now, he shares his
secrets. In Bite by Bite, Peter invites readers to enter his world of whimsy and wit,
where tuna tartare becomes an ice cream cone, shrimp cocktail becomes
lollipops, and cones of frites are served next to mini sliders. In Peter's world,
cotton candy has left the carnival and arrives in miniature on Park Avenue and
comfort food is dwarfed to perfection with Lilliputian versions of grilled cheese,
cheeseburgers, and spaghetti and meatballs.
There are 100 recipes, all accompanied by vibrant food photography by Con
Poulos, ranging from savory to sweet and comfort food to haute cuisine, plus
variations, tips, and shortcuts to make and present food and drink. In his debut
cookbook, Peter simplifies his catering style and makes his recipes achievable for
the home cook, divulging along the way his secrets and inspiration, including
ON SALE 8/30/2011 stories of how he dreamed up dishes that he's catered for his long roster of

The Nine Pregnancy Countdown

POTTER STYLE
Journal
Kelly Sopp and David Sopp
For the stylish mom-to-be who wants a smart and sophisticated keepsake
for recording memories and milestones during her pregnancy.
The Nine: Pregnancy Countdown Journal is a chic and engaging keepsake
book that will appeal to women with an eye for style and a sense of humor about
the exciting (and bewildering) path to motherhood. Featuring nine colorful tabbed
sections to correspond with each month, the journal contains smart prompts to
help a busy mom-to-be capture important milestones and funny moments before
pregnesia (aka "baby brain") wipes the slate clean. The book includes pages for
writing about the first time you felt the baby flutter, prompts to let you vent about
any crazy (and unsolicited) advice you've been getting, and monthly "check in"
pages for belly photos and quick notes about life in general. The Nine is the
perfect journal for a woman who shuns cutesy baby gear (and would prefer if
everyone's attention didn't revolve so much around "the bump"), but who is still
engaged in an exciting countdown toward the arrival of her baby.

Hot Connections Jewelry
The Complete Sourcebook of Soldering Techniques

Jennifer Chin
For jewelry makers who have had some experience with beading,
wireworking, and basic cold-connection techniques (such as riveting) and
are ready to move on to the next level and add a core metalworking skill to
their creative repertoire.
In Hot Connections Jewelry, jewelry designer Jennifer Chin offers detailed
POTTER CRAFT

instruction in the materials and techniques of soldering, supported by a series of


lessons and progressive projects inspired by her stunning jewelry designs.

Key Points/Quotes
Interest in traditional metalsmithing techniques is increasing: As can be seen in
such jewelry-making magazines as Bead&Button and Art Jewelry, and in the course
listings of such popular crafting conventions as the Bead&Button Show, metalworking
techniques are becoming more and more mainstream for the jewelry-making audience,
which is looking beyond beads and wire to challenge itself with new skills.
Comprehensive guide to the soldering process that includes technique-driven
projects with stylish appeal: Unlike the competition, which offers overviews of a range
of studio techniques, Hot Connections Jewelry centers on the fundamentals of soldering
in clear, basic terms. The result is a solid reference comprising a series of progressive
ON SALE 7/12/2011 lessons that give readers a foundation for learning and expanding on new skills, along
POTTER CRAFT with gorgeous projects and gallery pieces that inspire them to move on to subsequent
TRADE PAPERBACK lessons.

Teeny-Tiny Mochimochi
More Than 40 Itty-Bitty Minis to Knit, Wear, and Give

Anna Hrachovec
For advanced beginner to intermediate-level knitters who want fun, witty,
irresistibly tiny patterns to make as gifts for friends, cute accessories, and
decorative items.
In Teeny-Tiny Mochimochi, toy knits designer Anna Hrachovec presents more
than 30 super-cute, humorous patterns for miniature toys, plus techniques for tiny
POTTER CRAFT

knitting; ideas for using the tiny knits as wearables, decorations, and gifts; and
instructions on how to convert a pattern for a tiny project into a bigger toy.

Key Points/Quotes
Miniatures rule: Everything is more fun in miniature form. In the past decade, miniatures
have gone from a niche interest of dollhouse hobbyists to an international obsession.
Unique, fun approach to quick knits: There's nothing quite like Teeny-Tiny
Mochimochi on the current market of knitting books. With that said, knitting books
focusing on smaller, giftable projects that require little yarn and time are very popular.
The disarmingly cute, incredibly tiny knits in Teeny-Tiny Mochimochi will take this trend to
the extreme--all of the projects can be completed in under or about one hour, and one
skein of sock yarn can make dozens of tiny knits.
Tiny knits with a big online following: Fans of Mochimochi Land and Knitting
ON SALE 8/16/2011 Mochimochi as well as toy knitters in general will see Teeny-Tiny Mochimochi as a
POTTER CRAFT must-buy. Readers of the author's blog (mochimochiland.com/weblog) have already
