McSweeney's first edition of Zeitoun, Dave Eggers' landmark nonfiction account of Abdulrahman Zeitoun and his family during and after Hurricane Katrina - now regarded as a defining narrative of post-9/11 America. Published in 2009 by McSweeney's Books, San Francisco, this first printing was issued without a dust jacket, as published, and features the publisher's distinctive pictorial boards with maroon cloth spine, designed by Rachell Sumpter. This is a particularly clean and attractive copy. The exterior is Near Fine+, with crisp boards, strong color, and minimal handling evidence. The interior is Fine, with bright, unmarked pages, no writing or ownership marks, and a tight, square binding. An uncommon survival point is present: the original slip-on 'sleeve' jacket at the rear board, often missing from copies encountered on the market. Laid in is a Newsweek magazine article (September 13, 2010) titled 'What America Has Lost' by Fareed Zakaria, which directly references Zeitoun, adding period-critical context and collectible ephemera. A sharp, presentation-worthy example of a modern American first edition. Dave Eggers is an American author, editor, and publisher whose work bridges literary nonfiction, social justice, and publishing innovation. Founder of McSweeney's and co-founder of 826 National, Eggers has played a central role in contemporary American letters, with Zeitoun standing among his most influential and enduring works

"You know you're living in rarefied air when the topic of "the best there ever was" follows you like a shadow. Such is the case for Hall of Fame quarterback Dan Marino, who holds dozens of NFL passing reecords, including most completions (4,967), most yardage (61,361), and most touchdowns (420), making him the most prolific quarterback in league history. But for all he accomplished on the football field - as a Miami Dolphin for 17 spectacular seasons, as well as during his All-American high school and college careers in Pittsburgh - Marino has distinguished himself from other professional athletes of his era with his off-the-field contributions and his intense devotion to his family and friends. As he joins his sport's greatest legends in Cantion, Ohio, he brings with him a distinction that goes far beyond his incredible athletic achievements. His legacy will be that of a man who raised his position and his sport to new heights, as well as that of a man who redefined the image of the American hero during a time when professional sports needed lasting and meaningful role models. Marino fulfilled the roles of sports hero and American icon like few before him, pouring his energies equally and generously into his career, his family, and hs community. This spectacular pictorial tells his entire story - in his own words and through never-before-seen archival family photographs and video footabge. It is the rare and inspirational story of an exceptional athlete who realized that he had the God-given tools to rewrite the NFL record books, and who walked the extra miles to make the world around him a better place. This is Dan Marino's personal story, and, like his life, it goes way beyond his accomplishments on the football field." - from the inner front jacket flap. "Includes DVD with never-before-seen archival footage: Where the Dream Began. Football fans everywhere know of Dan Marino's amazing NFL career and his dozens of league records, but little is publicly known about the early path he took on his road to superstardom. Where the Dream Began chronicles his formative years growing up in Pittsburgh, where he starred in both football and baseball for Central Catholic High School, and his All-American career at the University of Pittsburgh. The rare video footage is accentuated by present-day interviews with Marino and several of his coaches and teammates. Marino and his colleagues all reflect...

A 1 1/2 inch gold circular "Signed Copy" sticker is affixed to the jacket front. Signed by the author, Dave Rubin, with thick black Sharpie/marker on a thicker stock blank second free front endpaper. "Dave Rubin, the unlikeliest of conservatives, reminds us all: Don't carelessly destroy what so many have labored so long to build. A little gratitude is constantly in order." - Jordan Peterson, author. "When you combine a first-class mind and a love of truth with extraordinary courage, you end up with Dave Rubin. Don't Burn This Country is vitally important at this uniquely dangerous juncture in American history." - Dennis Prager, author, cofounder of PragerU. "Dave once again demonstrates why he is a leader in combating the relentless left-wing attack on America. I expect him to soon develop a vaccine against wokeness, a disease more virulent that COVID." - Larry Elder. "Wokeism is destroying America. It's time to fight back. You don't have to be a conspiracy theorist to see that something dark is happening in America. Just look around: massive corporations monitor our every move and police our most private medical decisions. The political establishment bows down to foreign interests, while everyday Americans struggle to survive. Brainwashed activists demonize anyone who dares to think for themselves and openly attack the American experiement. The dystopian future we've feared most is here. For years, Dave Rubin has been on the front lines of the culture war, advocating for America's founding values. Now, arguing that the individual rights of American citizens are under attack by Progressive psychological warfare and authoritarian rule, he urges conservatives to fight back and revive the American dream. What's more, he offers a vision for the next generation of patriots, who will need to face the future head-on, holding steadfast to their principles and creating a meaningful life no matter how frenzied and fabricated the news of the day is. For free-thinking people to thrive in this era of woke lunacy, we need to step up and create freedom for ourselves. Exposing Progressive lies and offering practical advice you can employ right now, this book is a call for Americans to live their freest life possible - and a road map for saving the greatest country in the history of the world." - from the inner front jacket flap. "Whip-smart, funny, and willing to talk about anything, Dave Rubin has emerged as one of the most popular and essential political commentators in America. His political evolution has taken him from the ideological left to right, but his core mission remains the same: searching for truth, with wit and - sometimes - a bit of tequila along the way." - Megyn Kelly....

Includes List of Other Books by Yogi Berra; Author Dedication; Introduction; Epilogue and Appendix. Illustrated with black-and-white photographs. "In more than a century of baseball history, there is only one player who has won the most championship rings - Yogi Berra. He has ten of them, in fact. One for each and every finger. In Ten Rings, Yogi, for the first time, tells the stories behind each of those remarkable championship seasons, spanning 1947 through 1962, baseball's golden years. It was a time when players played for the love of the game, working as maitre d's and salesmen and pipe-fitters in the off season to put food on the table, a time when dynasties were born and baseball became the national pastime. And what a pastime it was. With Yogi Berra at their heart, Casey Stengel's Yankees took on their heralded archrivals: the Cleveland Indians, the New York Giants, the Brooklyn Dodgers, and, of course, the Boston Red Sox. And with those teams was Yogi's constellation of contemporaries, a who's who of the Hall of Fame: Joe DiMaggio, Mickey Mantle, Sandy Koufax, Willie Mays, Duke Snider, Ted Williams, Jackie Robinson, Phil Rizzuto, and many others. Each season brought its own drama. In 1947, Yogi the rookie struggled behind the plate, and his unlikely physique - knock-kneed and barrel-shaped - made him the target of a cruel media that wondered whether he even looked like a Yankee and nicknamed him "The Ape.". But the name calling didn't faze Yogi. After all, he said, he didn't have to hit with his face. And he had the last laugh. In 1949, Bill Dickey came out of retirement to, as Yogi said, "learn me his experiences" and mold him into the Hall of Fame catcher he would become. Then came a string of five consecutive Yankees World Series championships, which no other team in history has ever matched. The year 1951 was Joe DiMaggio's final season.and Mickey Mantle's first. In 1956 there was Don Larsen's perfect game in the World Series. And it's all brought to life by the man who witnessed it. Ten Rings is a one-of-a-kind story told by a one-of-a-kind guy, the beloved Yogi Berra." - from the inner front and rear jacket flaps.

On a difficult journey across the sea, he and Tink discover the mysterous and deadly Lord Ombra, who is intent on recovering the missing starstuff - celestial dust that contains unimagined powers. In London, Peter attempts to track down the indomitable Molly, hoping that together they can combat Ombra's determined forces. But London is not Mollusk Island; Peter is not the boy he used to be; and Lord Ombra - the Shadow Master - is unlike anything Peter, or the world, has ever seen. Dave Barry and Ridley Pearson have done it again - written a compulsively readable, magical, impossible-to-put-down tale that will delight readers of all ages." - from Goodreads dot com review.

"How far wold New Orleans go to attract the National Football League in the '60s?" - from the rear outer jacket. "Dave Dixon tells things about the Saints and the Superdome that will surprise everyone. And his scandal is a riveting, fascinating story of how a great Louisiana governor, John J. McKeithen, nearly became president of the United States in 1975." - Peter Finney. "Dave Dixon, known to die-hard fans and insiders as the "Father of the Saints," give an unparalleled perspective into the behind-the-scenes efforts to create the sixteenth franchise in the National Football League. The story of the New Orleans Saints unfolds as one man takes it upon himself to turn a dream into a reality. Little-know facts reveal the negotiations, the secrets, and the votes that changed the sports scene in New Orleans. Dixon specifically names those who supportred his efforts and those whose pockets were lined in the process. How were votes assembled, and how much energy was Dixon willing to expend? Dixon delves deep into the political maneuverings behind the team's creation and the nationwide scandal that struck one of the Saints' key supporters only one year after the team was awarded. Dave Dixon, named on of the "Ten Most Important New Orleanians of the 20th Century" by New Orleans Magazine, was instrumental in bringing the National Football League to New Orleans and building their home, the Louisiana Superdome." - from the rear outer jacket. "Before the Saints were synonymous with New Orleans, Dave Dixon was gathering support to create this dream team and build a Superdome to accommodate them. Offering an insider's perspective on the events that shaped the New Orleans sports scene, Dixon recounts key moments in the city's history. In an effort to attract the NFL, Dixon undertook the overwhelming and difficult task of desegregating Tulane Stadium in 1963 for a doubleheader featuring the Chicago Bears against the Baltimore Colts. For th first time in Louisiana's history, football was palyed in front of a mixed crowd to whom seats were sold on a first come, first served basis, regardless of color. This catalyst started the negotiations to bring the Saints to New Orleans. On November 1, 1966, the Pontchartain Hotel hosted a press conference during which Pete Rozelle, commissioner of the National Football League, announced that New Orleans would become the sixteenth franchise in the NFL. Ironically, this announcement took place on All Saints' Day. With a commitment from the NFL and the passage of a constitutional amendment by the people of...

Finish: Honeyed plums, sweet barley, and more fresh pear, with lingering drying oak and prickling spice. Distillery Information The buildings of the Glen Elgin distillery are rather modest, this being due to a lack of funding when it was first built in 1898. The whisky distillery was designed by the renowned Charles Doig, who heralded from the namesake town, Elgin. Despite the size and the decidedly low annual production capacity of 1.83 million litres, the Glen Elgin distillery enjoys world wide popularity, selling nearly nine million bottles a year. The building was financed by the North of Scotland banker James Carle and William Simpson of Glenfarclas fame. Having begun distillation at the turn of the 20th century, Glen Elgin closed down just months later. In 1901, the distillery was acquired at auction by the Glen Elgin-Glenlivet Distillery Company for £4,000. Production began once more, though it only lasted from 1904 to 1905. It was not until Scottish Malt Distillers acquired Glen Elgin in 1930 that its fate improved. To this day, the bulk of whisky production is used for blending, particularly in the White Horse blends; Scottish Malt Distillers having licensed the distillery to White Horse shortly after purchase. In 1964, a further four stills were installed, bringing the total to six. Substantial renovations were carried out on the site and today the 1960s aesthetics remain.

Distillery Information The Linkwood distillery sits in Elgin, drawing its water from the springs of Millbuies Loch. Next to the distillery is a large and rather beautiful reservoir which plays host to a variety of local wildlife including ducks and swans, the latter can be seen gracing the label of the twelve year-old bottling. Linkwood is home to two stillhouses, Linkwood A, which is currently not in use, houses the two original stills and Linkwood B, in which a further four stills operate. The distillery has a capacity of 2.24 million litres per annum and the majority of the whisky produced is used for blending, notably in Johnnie Walker. Thanks to Diageo there have been, of late, several single malt whiskies released from Linkwood. In 2008, three twenty-six year-olds were launched, notable for their 50cl bottles and having spent the last fourteen years of their maturation in either rum, red wine or port casks. There have been quite a number of independent bottlings in recent times, joining a few special editions and the Flora and Fauna twelve year-old. The Linkwood distillery was founded in 1821 by Peter Brown and rebuilt fifty-one years later following William Brown’s inheritance of the distillery in 1868. Linkwood is currently under Diageo ownership following Scottish Malt Distillers takeover in 1933 and their subsequent amalgamation to form the drinks giant.

"If you thought Mitch McDeere was in trouble in The Firm, wait until you meet Kyle McAvoy, The Associate. Kyle McAvoy grew up in his father's small-town law office in York, Pennsylvania. He excelled in college, was elected editor-in-chief of the Yale Law Journal, and his future has limitless potential. But Kyle has a secret, a dark one, an episode from college that he has tried to forget. The secret, though, falls into the hands of the wrong people, and Kyle is forced to take a job he doesn't want - even though it's a job most law students can only dream about. Three months after leaving Yale, Kyle becomes an associate at the largest law firm in the world, where, in addition to practicing law, he is expected to lie, steal, and take part in a scheme that could send him to prison, if not get him killed. With an unforgettable cast of characters and villains - from Baxter, Tate, a drug addled trust fund kid and possible rapist, to Dale, a pretty but seemingly quiet former math teacher who shares Kyle's "cubicle" at the law firm, to two of the msost powerful and fiercely competitive defense contractors in the country - and featuring all the twists and turns that have made John Grisham the most popular storyteller in the world, The Associate is vintage Grisham." - from the inner front jacket flap.

Signed by the author, John Grisham, with thin blue ink on the half title page. "In his first collection of short stories John Grisham takes us back to Ford County, Mississippi, the setting of his first novel, A Time to Kill. Wheelchair-bound Inez Graney and her two older sons, Leon and Butch, take a bizarre road trip through the Mississippi Delta to visit the youngest Graney brother, Raymond, who's been locked away on death row for eleven years. It could well be their last visit. Mack Stafford, a hard-drinking and low-grossing run-of-the-mill divorce lawyer, gets a miracle phone call with a completely unexpected offer to settle some old, forgotten cases for more money than he has ever seen. Mack is suddenly bored with the law, fed up with his wife and his life, and makes drastic plans to finally escape. Quiet, dull Sidney, a data collector for an insurance company, perfects his blackjack skills in hopes of bringing down the casino empire of Clanton's most ambitious hustler, Bobby Carl Leach, who, among other crimes, has stolen Sidney's wife. Three good ol' boys from rural Ford County begin a journey to the big city of Memphis to give blood to a grievously injured friend. However, they are unable to drive past a beer store as the trip takes longer and longer. The journey comes to an abrupt end when they make a fateful stop at a Memphis strip club. The Quiet Haven Retirement Home is the final stop for the elderly of Clanton. It's a sad, languid place with little controversy, until Gilbert arrives. Posing as a low-paid bedpan boy , he is in reality a brilliant stalker with an uncanny ability to sniff out the assets of those "seniors" he professes to love. One of the hazards of litigating against people in a small town is that one day, long after the trial, you will probably come face-to-face with someone you've beaten in a lawsuit. Lawyer Stanley Wade bumps into an old adversary, a man with a long memory, and the encounter becomes a violent ordeal. Clanton is rocked with the rumor that the gay son of a prominent family has finally come home, to die. Of AIDS. Fear permeates the town as gossip runs unabated. But in Lowtown, the colored section of Clanton, the young man finds a soul mate in his final days. Featuring a cast of characters you'll never forget, these stories bring Ford County to vivid and colorful life. Often hilarious, frequently moving, and always entertaining, this collection makes it abundantly clear why John Grisham is our most popular storyteller." - from the inner front and rear jacket flaps.

"If you think you know everything there is to know about Kurt & Brenda Warner, think again. For instance, did you know. Kurt has to pay his own son to toss the football with him in the backyard? Before she met Kurt, Brenda spent several years in the United States Marine Corps, working in Intelligence? None of the Warner kids really wanted to go see their dad play in Super Bowl XLIII? The last time Kurt saw his Super Bowl ring was when the cleaning lady pulled it out from under the living room couch along with a stack of Legos, and handful of Cheerios, and a half-used stick of Brenda's deodorant? First Things First is an intimate, no-holds-barred look at life inside the crazed and chaotic Warner household. Writing from a his-and-hers perspective, Kurt and Brenda share candidly about their marriage, the values they are working to instill in their kids, things they've done right, mistakes they've made along the way, the importance of giving back, and the lasting legacy they hope to leave behind." - from the rear outer jacket. "So much has been written about "Kurt and Brenda Warner" in the media that people think they know us. But they don't. We want you to know the real Kurt and Brenda - the good, the bad, and the ugly. We want you to see the off-the-wall things we say and do - the way we make our marriage work, the way we parent our kids, and the example we try to set for them and for those around us. Over the years, we've created some rules that we try to live by. Sometimes we get it right; sometimes we don't. And we don't always agree - even on the rules we set for ourselves. But one thing we do agree on is that we love each other, we love our kids, and we love Jesus, and at the end of the day, that's what really matters most. Getting our priorities straight is what this book is about. We don't have ten steps to a perfect marriage, or six easy ways to parent a teen, but we do have a few rules in our relationship that have worked for us. Maybe some of them will work for you, too. We don't want to come across as though we have it all together, because we definitely don't. But we do have a great marriage, we have seven terrific kids, and despite all the craziness that comes along with being a Warner, we have an awful lot of fun - mostly because we've learned to appreciate the humor in each other. We've also learned to appreciate all that we have and all that we've been given (mostly because we didn't always have it). Most of all, we've learned that, when we consistently put first things...

Frank Baum [VINTAGE 2009] [FIRST EDITION, FIRST PRINTING] Loncraine, Rebecca [First Edition] The Real Wizard of Oz: The Life and Times of L.

Frank Baum and Black Elk; Acknowledgments; Notes on Sources; A Selected Bibliography of Works by L. Frank Baum; Selected Bibliography; Index and About the Author. Illustrated with a section of black-and-white photographic plates. "In the first major literary biography of L. Frank Baum, Rebecca Loncraine tells the story of Oz as you've never heard it, with a look behind the curtain at the vivid life and eccentric imagination of its creator. L. Frank Baum wrote The Wonderful Wizard of Oz in 1899 and it was first published in 1900. A runaway hit, it was soon recognized as America's first modern fairy tale. Buam's life story, like the fictional world he created, is uniquely American, rooted in the transforming historical changes of his times. Baum was a complex and eccentric man who could never stay put for long; his restless creative spirit and voracious appetite for new projects led him across the United States during his lifetime, and he drew energy and inspiration from each new dramatic landscape he encountered. Born in 1856, Baum spent his youth in the Finger Lakes region of New York as amputee soldiers returned from the Civil War; childhood mortality was also commonplace, blurring the lines between the living and the dead, and making room in Baum's young imagination for vividly real ghosts. When Baum was growing up, P.T. Barnum ruled the minds of samll towns and his traveling circus was the most famous act around. Baum married a headstrong young woman named Maud Gage and they ventured out west to Dakota Territory, where they faced violent tornadoes, Ghost Dancing tribes, and desperate droughts, before trading the hardships on the Great Plains for the excitement of Chicago and the fantastical White City of the World's Fair. Baum's writing tapped into an inner world that blurred his own sense of reality and fantasy. The Land of Oz, which Baum believed he had "discovered" rather than invented, grew into something far bigger and more popular than he'd ever imagined. After the roaring success of The Wonderful Wizard of Oz in 1900, he became a kind of slave to his creation, trapped inside Oz as his army of demanding child fans kept sending him back there to create new adventures for Dorothy, Toto, and the humbug wizard. He went on to write thirteen sequels to his first Oz book. He also wrote the first Broadway adaptations of his Oz tales and turned his Oz books into some of the first motion pictures in a small and undiscovered rural settlement called "Hollywood." Baum cofounded the Oz Flim Manufacturing Company, even as critics warned that no one would pay to see a children's story. And they were right - his early ventures were box office flops and the world...

Includes Dedication and Acknowledgments. Illustrated with black-and-white photographs. Signed by the author, Andy Williams, with thick black Sharpie on a Viking publisher bookplate affixed to the second free front half title page. "A remarkable memoir by one of the most popular and beloved entertainers of the twentieth century. When in the mid-1950s Andy Williams reached a low point in his career, singing in a series of ever seedier dives to ever smaller audiences, the young man from Wall Lake, Iowa, had little inkling of the success that he would one day achieve. But by the time his voice was declared "a national treasure" by President Ronald Reagan he had charted eighteen gold and three platinum record albums, headlined at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas for more than twenty years, and hosted an enormously popular weekly television series whose Christmas specials still occupy a tender spot in every baby boomer's heart. In Moon River and Me, his long-awaited autobiography, Andy Williams tells the extraordinary story of a career that has flourished for nearly three-quarters of a century and made its mark in every branch of show business. Raised by a father who was single-mindedly determined to see his four sons become famous performers, Andy spent much of his youth moving across the country, landing wherever he and his brothers might have a bigger opportunity, and eventually winding up in Hollywood. It was there that they caught the eye of the gifted entertainer Kay Thompson, who created an acclaimed nightclub act with the Williams Brothers that toured the country for four years. When Andy set off for a solo career in 1952, however, the fame he had enjoyed with Thompson began to slip away, and he soon found himself struggling to even support himself. But a lucky break led to a job on Steve Allen's Tonight Show, and within only a few short years his plushly beautiful tenor became one of the most recognizable voices in popular music. Andy shares not only the triumphs and setbacks of his career but his memories of the many notable people he came to know (including Judy Garland, Henry Mancini, Jack Lemmon, John Lennon, Frank Sinatra, Elvis, and Elton John), writing particularly movingly about his close friendship with Bobby Kennedy. For everyone who grew up with the voice of Andy Williams as the sound track to their romances, their holidays, and their family gatherings, Moon River and Me will be a welcome - and often surprising - self-portrait of a warm, funny, generous, and always captivating man." - from the inner front and rear jacket flaps
