Both brilliant and funny, John Sherman has a loyal following Features the best of Climbing magazine's Verm's World Insightful and often irreverent profiles of some of North America's best climbers Outrageous, talented, and a force to be reckoned with, John Sherman is always willing to spout an opinion that's sure to raise eyebrows. This rowdy collection of biting satire, parody profiles, barely restrained rants, and genuine reflections on climbing's unsung heroes is no different. Blending his juiciest Verm's World columns from Climbing magazine with previously unpublished (or, perhaps, unpublishable?) stories, Sherman pulls no punches, even on himself. From his college exploits in buildering on the Berkeley campus, to his quest for the Fab 50, to his years as a nomadic boulderer, Sherman shares the best, and the worst, he has found in the people and places he encountered along the way. Climbers will discover valuable excuse-making techniques in The Dog Ate My Belay Plate; they will aspire to the very un-PC All Vermin Team; and they will challenge themselves with The Verm's World History Aptitude Test. Who could ask for more?

Jack Stiles played the horses the way he played his women, and the women supported his habit. He often bragged that he'd never worked for more than a few weeks at a time. After deserting the Marines and heading for Canada he took on the persona of a poet where he learned that women were more than willing to provide support to a talented, struggling artist. It was in Canada that he began his lifelong challenge to use and abuse as many women as possible in his attempt to live life to the fullest. All of Jack's victims were smart, capable women. His final victim, Dr. Diedre Warren, was a successful psychologist. Jack stole her heart, her money, and nearly her life.
Editor’s Opinion is an homage to Bobby Halton, Editor in Memoriam of Fire Engineering Magazine. Over his 18 years as Editor-in-Chief, Halton contributed a number of pieces on critical topics to the fire service in his monthly "Editor’s Opinion” column – all of which are now gathered in this book. Take a look at Halton’s unique perspective on everything from social media, to the importance of spending time together as a company, and the importance of educating not only the men and women in the fire service, but also our communities and the next generation of firefighters. “Bobby Halton represented the core essence of the fire service...He wove his editorials into philosophical motivators for readers, encouraging them to think and act.” -Glenn Corbett, Technical Editor, Fire Engineering

A small-town Police Chief is shot. Although his wound isnt serious, it was inflicted by his sister. It seems an inexplicable act and yet, as the Chief tells his wife, people always have a reason and its what sets things in motion and once things are set in motion, whats going to happen is simply going to happen. A novel of superbly realized characters and compelling dialogue, Those That I Guard explores this notion of inevitability, how we set things in motion, often without intent, and how our acts modify, and in turn are modified by, the lives of others. Our deeds go on and on, another character explains, like spreading ripples on a pond, pregnant with opportunity for unexpected others. As events move toward a crisis, the characters struggle to make sense of how their lives are defined, not only by their own acts or choices, but by their relationships with those around them. Some succeed and some do not, but everything that happens follows from that opening gunshot.
