Professor Baseball
It happens every summer: packs of beer-bellied men with gloves and aluminum bats, putting their middle-aged bodies to the test on the softball diamond. For some, this yearly ritual is driven by a simple desire to enjoy a good ballgame; for others, it’s a way to forge friendships—and rivalries. But for one short, wild-haired, bespectacled professor, playing softball in New York’s Central Park means a whole lot more. It's one last chance to heal the nagging wounds of Little League trauma before the rust of decline and the relentless responsibilities of fatherhood set in. Professor Baseball is the coming-of-middle-age story of New York University professor and Little League benchwarmer Ed...

Spy
Smart. Funny. Fearless."It's pretty safe to say that Spy was the most influential magazine of the 1980s. It might have remade New York's cultural landscape; it definitely changed the whole tone of magazine journalism. It was cruel, brilliant, beautifully written and perfectly designed, and feared by all. There's no magazine I know of that's so continually referenced, held up as a benchmark, and whose demise is so lamented" --Dave Eggers. "It's a piece of garbage" --Donald Trump.
Life's Been a Blast
Emily Lyons survived a bomb detonated by Eric Robert Rudolph in Birmingham, Alabama on Jan 29th, 1998. Rudolph was on the FBI's Top Ten for over five years with a reward of one million dollars. The manhunt cost $30 million. Emily sustained extensive injuries, including the loss of her eye. This book is about the attack, but there is so much more - love and hate, life and death, joy and sorrow. Most of all, it is about survival. Tragic events do not make a person special. Life knocks everybody down. What counts is how you stand up afterwards. Emily faced her injuries head on and with a smile. "This bombing was an unforgivable act that strikes at the heart of the constitutional freedoms and individual liberties all Americans hold dear." --President Clinton. "In an era of terrorism, Emily Lyons proves its failure. It has made her more outspoken, more likely to smile, and even more treasured by her husband. Her personal story is an inspiration to all." --Gloria Steinem. "Thank you so much for your courage." --Katie Couric, Today Show. "Emily and Jeff's inspiring story is one of overcoming tragedy with love and humor." --Rick Journey and Janice Rogers, WBRC.
