2011 marks the 150th anniversary of the start of the Civil War

ll of Cozzens’ books have been selections of the Book of the Month A Club, the History Book Club, and/or the Military Book Club. This Terrible Sound: The Battle of Chickamauga and The Shipwreck of Their Hopes: The Battles for Chattanooga were both Main Selections of the History Book Club and were chosen by Civil War Magazine as two of the 100 greatest works ever written on the conflict

New EDITION

At Home

What It Means and Why It Matters by Mary Gordon Where do you live? The answer to this seemingly simple question can be more complicated than you’d think. Drawing on personal experience, Mary Gordon examines various forms of abode—from her childhood house in Far Rockaway, New York to apartments in Palo Alto, Rome, and Manhattan’s Upper West Side—as well as the very concept of “home” and how it has evolved over time. Rich in insights from writers and thinkers as diverse as Le Corbusier, Emerson, Colette, and Edith Wharton, At Home skillfully provokes us to probe our own thoughts about what “home” truly means.

Building Country Comforts Wisdom on Living a Sustainable, Back-to-Basics Life by Robert Inwood & Christian Bruyère, foreword by Ashley English Perfect for today’s focus on green building techniques and self-reliance, this how-to guide combines and updates two classics—In Harmony with Nature and Country Comforts. The book showcases homes and detailed, step-by-step building projects by nonprofessionals, along with their personal stories. Heartwarming and informative, this is for everyone seeking a more natural way of life.

Etiquette

The Complete Modern Manners by Jodi R. R. Smith The ultimate guide to manners in the real world! Is it rude to keep checking your phone during lunch with a friend? Are handwritten thank-you notes still necessary? A respected etiquette coach solves these modern dilemmas and more—including issues unique to our times, such as privacy and cyberspace, personal interaction in a diverse society, and professional protocol around the globe.

What Every Hospital Patient Needs to Know 10 Essential Checklists to Help You Stay Organized, Safe, and Sane by Elizabeth Bailey In the vein of Atul Gawande’s best-selling The Checklist Manifesto, Hospital Patient’s Checklist provides ten simple, potentially life-saving checklists to help patients get organized before a hospital stay, navigate hospital culture and personnel, put together daily medication schedules, handle insurance details, and track post-release doctor’s visits. With these lists, patients and their family can assure that no essential steps in treatment are overlooked.

About the Author As a producer, director, and VP of video production at several major record labels, Elizabeth Bailey used checklists to oversee the production of hundreds of music videos for artists such as Rod Stewart, Moby, and Aretha Franklin. While helping family and friends navigate their hospitalizations, she realized how production checklists could be adapted to successfully manage the complexities of patient care.

The Real History of World War II A New Look at the Past by Alan Axelrod In a refreshingly fearless, colloquial voice, acclaimed historian Alan Axelrod recounts the key events of World War II with humanity and drama. Rather than chronologically unspooling the entire enormous history of the conflict, Axelrod helps make the events of the war understandable by identifying and focusing in on only the most significant stories in each theater.

Weird Oklahoma

Weird Tennessee

by Wesley Treat

by Roger Manley

Oklahoma has a history that’s both notorious and peculiar, from legendary natives like Giggling Granny—a jovial woman responsible for as many as 11 murders—to Shaman’s Portal, a gateway said to have swallowed handfuls of unsuspecting travelers over the last few centuries. And keep your camera at the ready for shapeshifting “manimals”! On this tour of the Sooner State, you’ll encounter the outlandish, exceptional, and bizarre.

What’s peculiar in Tennessee? How about a supernatural creature called the White Bluff Screamer? Phantoms drift among overgrown ruins, and the eerie headlamps of dead miners call to mind a grisly disaster from a bygone age. Then there are large-scale oddities, such as a ten-story tree house mounted on seven oaks. Buckle up: Weird Tennessee is a ride too incredible to miss!

Grens’s determination to find the killer not only threatens to expose Hoffman’s true identity—it could reveal even bigger crimes involving the highest levels of power. And there are people who will do anything to stop him from discovering the truth. Three Seconds captures a nefarious world of betrayal and violence, where a wise man trusts no one and even the most valuable agent can be “burned.”

Soon, secrets are shared, sparks fly, and erotic tension simmers. Even though Emmi is married, it seems only a matter of time till they meet. But will their feelings survive a real-life encounter? And, if so, what then? Funny and fast-paced, Love Virtually offers plenty of twists, turns, and satisfaction. ■ Ideal for fans of David Nicholls and Audrey Niffenegger ■ A runaway best seller across Europe, selling one million

Living A Course in Miracles The Essential Guide to the Classic Text by Jon Mundy, PhD

The essential guide to one of the most influential spiritual works ever written. In 1976, a mysterious “Inner Voice” called out to a woman named Helen Schucman, dictating a system of belief that ultimately became A Course in Miracles. This book, totaling 1,333 pages, went on to sell more than two million copies around the world.

Jon Mundy—who knew the Course’s founders and the text from the very beginning—is the perfect guide to the book’s central tenets. Using passages from ACIM, he illuminates its teachings on such subjects as the self, forgiveness, desire, health, money, addiction, and the afterlife. Through Jon’s lively storytelling and in-depth knowledge of the Course’s wisdom, readers gain wisdom that might otherwise have taken them a lifetime to grasp. has sold more than two million copies in nineteen languages

The King Whisperers

Power Behind the Throne, from Rasputin to Rove by Kerwin Swint Throughout history, behind so many de facto rulers, there can often be found a shadowy puppetmaster pulling the strings. Using examples that span the globe and historical periods (from Machiavelli, Catherine de Medici, and Alexander Hamilton to Dick Cheney, Zhou Enlai, and Joseph Stalin), Swint shows how each of these notorious “king whisperers” employed his or her unique style of power politics to wrest control. From spies and silver-tongued devils, to the truly evil, this is a brilliant tapestry of behindthe-scenes schemers of all shapes and sizes. ■ Swint is a frequently called-upon commentator who has

appeared on CNN, C-Span, FOX News, NPR, and The View

About the Author Kerwin Swint is a Professor of Political Science at Kennesaw State University and the author of Mudslingers: The 25 Dirtiest Political Campaigns of All Time and Dark Genius: The Influential Career of Legendary Political Operative and Fox News Founder Roger Ailes.

Jessica Lost

A Story of Birth, Adoption & The Meaning of Motherhood by Bunny Crumpacker and J.S. Picariello A mother and her child, lost and then found again after four decades: this extraordinary story of love, loss, and reunion is told in alternating voices by the two women, each relating her own powerful experience. For the mother, it’s the tale of an unhappy marriage followed by betrayal, a pregnancy of uncertain paternity, and the heartrending decision to give up her newborn. The daughter’s search begins 40 years later, as she slowly, painstakingly, stitches together her story. These intertwined tales give us two unforgettable points of view of a remarkable journey—and of the multiple meanings of motherhood. ■ Available for Mother’s Day

About the Author Bunny Crumpacker was the author of seven books, including The Sex Life of Food. J.S. Picariello is a copywriter for ad agencies and magazines including New York Magazine, People, Parenting, and Reader’s Digest.

I mage-sharing sites and communities are hugely popular. Flickr alone clocks in at more than 3 billion images: more than 100,000 users uploaded images of found faces and many themed groups focus solely on letters, including one with more than 23,000 photos

Focus: Found Faces

Focus: Letters

In the clouds, the bark of a tree, a winking parking meter, mischievous machinery: faces seem to be everywhere, emerging from everyday items, nature, and chance compositions. Focus: Found Faces celebrates the humor— and humanity—of encountering familiar features in unexpected places. Shot by everyday photographers, these delightfully surprising images convey a sense of joy, discovery, and magic.

Whether they’re glowing from a neon sign or scrawled as graffiti on the wall, letters are both meaningful and beautiful. They also seem to pop up where you least expect it—on a bicycle wheel that looks like an “O” or wooden boards that form an “E.” With approximately 250 images taken by amateur photographers, Focus: Letters shines a spotlight on the infinity of ways letters decorate our world…proving that sometimes the vehicle can be even more interesting then the message itself.

Appetite for Destruction

Document and Eyewitness

Johnny Depp

by Mick Wall

by Neil Taylor

by Nick Johnstone

Whether it’s hanging around with Marillion’s Fish or talking through old times with Led Zeppelin’s Jimmy Page, there isn’t a rock luminary that journalist Mick Wall hasn’t dealt with over the last 30+ years. Appetite for Destruction gathers together Wall’s writings from Kerrang!, with profiles on Metallica, Guns N’ Roses, and other heavy hitters. It also features new introductions to all the pieces, written with the benefit of 20 years’ hindsight.

The British record company Rough Trade has been a pioneer in the independent music industry for more than 30 years. Document and Eyewitness tells the definitive story of this trailblazing label through the voices of founder Geoff Travis, Jarvis Cocker, Robert Wyatt, Green Gartside, and other musicians. Serious fans of punk, dub, and rock will learn more about the bands they love—from Cabaret Voltaire and Kleenex to The Fall, The Smiths, and beyond.

Johnny Depp’s extraordinary journey has taken him from schoolboy misfit and bad-boy celebrity to compelling Oscar®-nominated actor and family man whose films have grossed over $4.7 billion worldwide. This lavish celebration of his art and life is fully updated to include Depp’s most recent roles: the demon barber of Fleet Street in Sweeney Todd, his further outings as Captain Jack Sparrow in Pirates of the Caribbean, and the Mad Hatter in Alice in Wonderland.

Brian Cook’s Landscapes of Britain

Our Friends Beneath the Sands

The Irrepressible Churchill

by Brian Cook

The Foreign Legion in France’s Colonial Conquests 1870 – 1935

Love and War in the Pyrenees

Brian Cook’s landscape illustrations from the 1930s, ‘40s and ‘50s—with their heightened use of color—have become iconic. This stunning collection gathers his very best work, and includes commentary by Cook on his working methods, the printing process that allowed him to create his characteristic bold hues, and the design principles of his craft. A stunning book for designers.

by Martin Windrow

by Rosemary Bailey

Thanks to countless films and books, an entire mythology surrounds the French Foreign Legion and the anonymous, desperate men who fought and died under the desert sun. But the reality is far richer, and Martin Windrow describes it in gripping detail, including the colonial missions in North Africa and Vietnam, the imperative to build empire, and the impact of Islamic fundamentalism.

What was life like for the French living in the Pyrenees, a route to freedom for refugees during WWII? A British journalist who settled in the area sought answers about the real role of the Resistance, the level of collaboration, the local concentration camps, and the treatment of Jews and other refugees. While much remains hidden, a portrait of human heroism and cruelty comes to light.

Sir Winston Churchill remains Britain’s most iconic statesman and one of the 20th century’s greatest orators. Written mainly in his own words, this new edition of a classic work details his remarkable career as well as his extraordinary life. Collated by Kay Halle, a close family friend of the Churchills, it provides an invaluable record of Sir Winston’s thoughts, opinions, wit, and wisdom.

The Real Messiah

The Throne of St. Mark and the True Origins of Christianity by Stephan Huller Highly controversial but impeccably researched, The Real Messiah explodes the myth that Jesus was the long-prophesied Messiah of the Jewish nation. Indeed, it argues that Jesus never claimed that role but thought of himself as herald to the true Messiah: Marcus Julius Agrippa, the last King of the Jews and Jesus’ contemporary.

About the Author

by Philip Dawson & Bruce Peter

Philip Dawson is the author of In the Wake of a Legend and The Liner: Retrospective & Renaissance.

Modernism and Modernity at Sea in the 20th Century

Some of the most exciting works of 20th-century architecture were born to sail the seas: luxury liners, cruise ships, ferries, and other passenger vessels that represented milestones in modernist style. Through extensive illustrations, including many previously unpublished photographs, this lavish volume examines their evolving design. These beautiful ships—powerful statements of commercial pride and even utopian visions—had a lasting influence on architecture ashore, and their sweeping forms and daring details will intrigue all design-conscious readers.

■ The dramatic focus is on the firsthand experiences of

carrier pilots, officers, and crew

■ A fascinating read for all World War II history buffs

Furoshiki

The Art of Wrapping with Fabric by Kumiko Nakayama-Geraerts Furoshiki is a centuries-old Japanese tradition of wrapping objects in a square piece of cloth.

Luckily, today’s eco-friendly movement has stirred interest in furoshiki once again. This book will teach you the four basic knots and various folding methods used to create handbags, backpacks, shopping bags, and bottle bags of varying shapes and sizes. Traditional embroidery designs are included so you can customize each of your furoshiki and bring beauty, style, and environmental consciousness to your life.

Nostradamus & The Third Antichrist Napoleon, Hitler & ‘The One Still to Come’ by Mario Reading

Although Nostradamus prophesied the coming of three Antichrists, many people don’t know who the first two Antichrists were, nor who the third and final one will be. Mario Reading, a world-renowned interpreter of Nostradamus’s quatrains, provides the answer. Reading believes that Nostradamus saw the three Antichrists as an evil mirror image of the Holy Trinity, and a three-stage buildup to Armageddon. After concluding that the first two were Napoleon and Hitler, he uncovers information on the “one still to come”—and reveals, dates, places, and consequences, beginning in 2010, with advance warning of Third Antichrist; his birth in 2035; a Global War in 2070; and the destruction of the Antichrist’s empire by 2097.

About the Author Mario Reading has a reputation as an original and groundbreaking expert on Nostradamus. He is author of the best-selling Nostradamus: The Complete Prophecies for the Future and Nostradamus: The Good News and has translated and written the ultimate collection of Nostradamus’s prophecies in The Complete Nostradamus. His first novel, The Nostradamus Prophecies, was an international best seller. He has appeared on several television programs about Nostradamus for the Discovery Channel and the History Channel.

■ This

is the first book specifically focusing on Nostradamus’s view of the Antichrist

ario is one of the world’s foremost Nostradamus commentators; M his recent discovery of Nostradamus’s own dating system has revolutionized Nostradamus scholarship

The Native American Experience

The Secret American Dream

by Jay Wertz

The Creation of a New World Order with the Power to Abolish War, Poverty, and Disease

Based in part on interviews with notable Native Americans— including Adam Fortunate Eagle, Johnny Bear Contreas, and Waneek Horn-Miller—and featuring removable facsimiles of rare documents from US archives and private collections, this is a powerful you-are-there account of American history as seen through the eyes of the people who were here first. Readers will gain a whole new perspective on the past as they share the outlook of those who view the “discovery” of America as one of history’s great tragedies.

by Nicholas Hagger

Facsimile documents include: • An issue of The Cherokee Phoenix newspaper from 1828 • A 17th-century map of the New World • President Lincoln’s handwritten pardon of 38 Dakota warriors • Top-secret Navajo Code Talker documents from the Second World War

Following the success of his bold revisionist history The Secret Founding of America, Nicholas Hagger now looks ahead to an astonishing future for the US and the world. As he sees it, we are entering a new phase of history, one in which the traditional American dream will be extended throughout the globe, bringing peace, social order, and prosperity to all humankind. Visionary in scope and full of optimism and hope, this is a powerful antidote to today’s prophecies of gloom and doom.

About the Author Nicholas Hagger has written more than 30 books on history, literature, and philosophy. A globally sought-after lecturer, he is known for his highly original views on the rise and fall of civilizations.

■ A radical view of America’s current status as a superpower

and its future as the leader of a new world order

■ Its revelations will appeal both to serious students of

history and readers of Dan Brown

How to Read Prehistoric Monuments

Countdown to Coherence

by Alan Butler

by Hazel Courteney

This comprehensive, illustrated guide to Britain’s earthworks, henges, and standing stones explores how and why they were built and used, offering a tantalizing glimpse into the religious, civic, and social practices of their creators. An A–Z section details all the site types in the British Isles, and each monument is identified by latitude and longitude, making it easy for history buffs to find them using maps and geo-location devices.

Inspired by her own near-death experience and its incredible aftermath, a leading spiritual writer explores the nature of the universe and its rich possibilities for human development. Using cutting-edge scientific and spiritual evidence, Hazel Courteney examines the growing belief that our world is nothing but a holographic projection, and that we are biological computers operating inside a preprogrammed simulator.

Glenfiddich Trophy and five-time award winner Michael Jackson goes deep into the world of whisky, visiting 12 distilleries and discussing the terroir that shapes the taste of this classic liquor. Jackson’s passion for Scotland and its national drink comes through clearly and deliciously, and photographer Harry Cory Wright beautifully captures the landscape’s magnificent colors and textures.

Blood, Sweat and Steel

Frontline Accounts from the Gulf, Afghanistan and Iraq

We Gave Our Today Burma 1941-1945

by William Fowler, with a foreword by Max Arthur

by Peter Darman The Supermarine Spitfire was the definitive Allied fighter of World War II and ranks amongst the most famous aircraft of all time. This handbook brings together the most useful manuals produced for the plane’s pilots and ground crew and reproduces them as they originally appeared when issued to RAF and other Allied air forces. It includes engine specs, cockpit layout, pilot’s notes, flying instructions, emergency procedures, and fighting tactics.

Mar

Hundreds of thousands of soldiers have fought in the War on Terror, and these are the human stories behind the headlines from Afghanistan and Iraq—frontline accounts from British infantrymen, US Marines, Canadian doctors, Iraqi officers, and other eyewitnesses. Blood, Sweat, and Steel covers the entire period from Saddam Hussein’s invasion of Kuwait to today, providing background and context-as well as a compelling portrait of the face of 21st-century warfare.

Mar

Nearly a million strong by 1944, the British 14th Army fought and ultimately conquered the Japanese forces that invaded Burma and strove to break through into India. But the victory was hard won, with great suffering along the way. Here is the story of these remarkable soldiers, whose monument at Kohima reads: “When You Go Home, Tell Them Of Us And Say, For Their Tomorrow, We Gave Our Today.”

This classic spiritual biography now features a new foreward by the author! Hidden Journey follows Andrew Harvey’s encounters with India’s Mother Meera, believed to be the incarnation of the Divine Mother, Hinduism’s source of divine feminine creative power. Using his Oxford training to challenge her divinity, Harvey found his own beliefs challenged instead.

An amazing true story about achieving awareness, accessing ancient wisdom, and conquering fear. While working with a Japanese Zen master, Vernon Kitabu Turner experienced a spiritual epiphany: with virtually no training in the martial arts, he endured a sensational trial by combat to become a black belt. He believes this power exists in all of us. Now, he shares his secret, proving that the soul is the path to cultivating the Warrior Mind…and overcoming any obstacle.

Dylan’s songs defined a generation, and Andy Gill assesses his groundbreaking 1960s hits. Tracing the artist’s progress from tyro folkie to protest singer and beyond, Gill examines Dylan’s symbolist lyrics; controversial shift from acoustic to electric; and surprising embrace of country music.

Fired up by funk, rock, ska and soul, the Red Hot Chili Peppers created a run of hit albums. But the band fought, split, made up, and then fought again. Rock writer Rob Fitzpatrick explores the group’s musical genius, singular personalities, and success in taking underground music mainstream.

The Crime Archives

by Nigel Rees

by Damon Wilson

Perfect for military history buffs and Anglophiles, this treasury of wartime slogans captures the unconquerable spirit of the British people one phrase at a time. Nigel Rees, who has delighted audiences on the BBC for more than 25 years, has created a nostalgic guide that traces the evolution of soldiers’ slang and political propaganda.

Surf!

In the Water with Wave Hunters Text by Guillaume Dufau

Ocean storms are the most overwhelming and intoxicating aspects of nature—a relentless force that’s life itself, pure energy and movement. Through extreme photographs shot by an intrepid artist in dangerous conditions, this volume captures the power of the sea during a tempest, with sailors caught in its vortex, pitted against nature. But it also portrays the ocean as pleasure, its waves ridden with audacious mastery by venturesome surfers.

APR

The world’s leading wave riders are only supporting players in these spectacular surfing photographs by Guillaume Dufau, former editor-in-chief of Surf Saga and Surf Session magazines. The ocean, with its immense power and beauty, is the true star. His brilliant images, shot from seemingly impossible angles, capture the cresting, curling, crashing waves as we’ve never seen them before—making even more astonishing the feats of the superb athletes who ride them.

Marco Polo

Text and photographs by Iago Corazza and Greta Ropa

by Michael Yamashita

With one eye toward the future and one looking to the past, Japan is a world of striking contrasts that translate dramatically to the medium of photography. Edgy and multidimensional, this stunning photo essay was born of several years’ research by a pair of accomplished documentarians with a keen sensibility for style and social behavior. It captures the unsettling shadows and contradictions within the pageantry of the Land of the Rising Sun.

Award-winning National Geographic photographer Michael Yamashita recreates Marco Polo’s fabled journey, documenting his own adventures in 500 stunning photographs. Beginning at Venice’s Grand Canal, he travels through Iran, Iraq, Afghanistan, and along the legendary Silk Road to China, returning via coastal Sumatra, Sri Lanka, and India. This trimmer edition of the 2002 best seller retains the historical introduction and fascinating Polo-era maps and artwork.
