My Country 'tis of Thee
A multifaceted career-spanning collection from famed activist and journalist David Harris David Harris is a reporter, a clear-eyed idealist, an American dissident, and, as these selected pieces reveal, a writer of great character and empathy.

Nature and Love
Nature and Love by David Sidney Harris Nature and Love, David Sidney Harris’ first published book, was written between 1998 and 2000. Nature and Love is both poetic and autobiographical, and was seen as a powerful tool of self-expression, catharsis, and a way for Harris to uniquely comment upon and unravel his individual perception of the world. The poems within speak of love, nature, family, and (psychiatric) healing. His healing poems, “The Pink Room” and “The Legacy of Persecution,” describe Harris’ experience as an inpatient in psychiatric hospital wards. Half of the biography reveals Harris’ suffering from a near-fatal car accident (November 4, 1977) which has changed his life. Harris tells his story of tragedy, his zest for life, and deep feelings. Many readers may find inspiration from Nature and Love, while others may relate to its sentiments.
Top Tips for Life
Life doesn’t come with an instruction manual. But if it did, and if that manual was cobbled together in five minutes by a drunken idiot-genius, then it might look something like these crowd-sourced tips and ill-thought-out ideas. Covering everything from how best to turn your cat into a fearsome stegosaurus to pre-empting jellyfish stings, this book presents the wealth of knowledge gleaned from the dusty vaults of twitter’s hugely popular @TwopTwips. From the profane to the ridiculous, these laugh-at-loud nuggets of advice, with absurd and informative illustrations, will change your life in a hugely insignificant way. Tips include: BORED of a friend's text messages? Reply with 'unsubscribe' and they'll get the hint. SPICE up a boring salad by replacing the vegetables with bacon and placing between two slices of bread. STOP your dog from pulling on its lead by walking a bit faster. PREPARE your children for office life by acting awkwardly around them in the kitchen. AVOID the hassle and expense of hair straighteners by not eating your crusts.

Dreams Die Hard
On March 14, 1980, Dennis Sweeney, a hero of the civil rights struggle, walked into the office of Allard Lowenstein, Sweeney's mentor and the architect of the "Dump Johnson" campaign. Sweeney shot Lowenstein in the chest, emerged from the office, put the gun in the receptionist's "out" tray, sat down, lit a cigarette, and waited for the police to arrive. In Dreams Die Hard, journalist David Harris brings us a stunning insider portrait of the sixties, using the bizarre murder as a catalyst to examine the issues that are as vital today as they were decades ago. The story unfolds through the lives of three men: Allard Lowenstein, a dean at Stanford at the beginning of the decade, and at its clo...
