President Theodore Roosevelt famously said, “I can do one of two things. I can be President of the United States – or I can control my daughter, Alice. I cannot possibly do both.”

Alice Roosevelt’s captivating story is told in memorable fashion in the new book, WHITE HOUSE WILD CHILD by award-winning author, Shelley Fraser Mickle, who has won numerous awards for her novels, which have also been adapted into film. In the book, Mickle shares how Alice was known for carrying a gun, a copy of the constitution, and a green snake in her purse. When her father, the PRESIDENT, told her she couldn’t smoke “under his roof” – she climbed on top of the WH to smoke on top of the roof! Full of tales of Alice’s incredible wit and outspoken tendencies, author Shelley Mickle shows how Alice was both the Princess Diana and Jackie O’ of her time.

From The Athletic, powerhouse of sports reporting, comes the definitive story of the greatest football players of all time: THE FOOTBALL 100 (William Morrow; on sale October 24, 2023). It is a question that has bedeviled football fans for generations: Who's the best? Of the more than 25,000 men who have suited up during the NFL's century of existence, which ones stood head and shoulders above all others? At The Athletic, home to unrivaled reporting on the most important happenings in sports, this question would become a labor of love for dozens of the best football writers on the planet, including Mike Sando and Dan Pompei. Over the course of 100 riveting profiles-each drawing upon unparalleled access and superlative storytelling to offer intimate perspective on what made the greatest players tick-these writers reveal their findings. In the process, they also uncover the history of football. In the early days of the NFL, the game bore little resemblance to the product we see today. Points were scarce, the forward pass was an exotic strategic curiosity, and most players played all 60 minutes-both sides of the ball. It was on the shoulders of the many greats who starred in the League over the last century that the game of football blossomed. Each profile in THE FOOTBALL 100 uses the vivid narrative storytelling for which The Athletic is known to bring to life extraordinary athletic talents, tactical geniuses who changed the way the game is played, and legendary, outsized personalities. Based on many hundreds of interviews with players, coaches, broadcasters, and others, this is a penetrating look at the greatest players to ever don cleats and pads, as well as a view from the trenches of the harsh realities of a brutal game. 100 photographs throughout the text offer testament to both the glory and the physical toll of football.

Hard truths and surprising insights about our COVID-19 response from America's former top doctor. When COVID-19 began spreading rapidly, the world was taken by surprise. As the ensuing pandemic raged, we faced one constant-a lack of consistent, scientifically sound, and trusted information about dangers, risks, and mitigation strategies that the average person could understand and put into practice to keep themselves and their families safe. Politicians, opportunists, and agenda-driven media personalities spread misinformation for an array of purposes, leaving most of the public scratching their heads, wondering what was true and what wasn't. Now, the former Surgeon General of the United States-freed from the many constraints he worked under in public office-reveals critical lessons learned from both mistakes and successes overlooked during the pandemic. He explains what we need to know to create a safer environment for individuals, families, and communities, how we can respond better to the next threat, why we keep making the same mistakes, and why we must promote health equity for all. As Dr. Adams explains, the best public health policies are the ones that begin at home and come about as people in local communities work together to find solutions that fit their specific priorities and needs. Only through this bottom-up, community-driven approach will we be able to turn down the volume on the distracting noise, finally make our way out of and recover from a once-in-a-century pandemic, and prepare ourselves for inevitable future health crises.

"Kurt screams in a code that millions can understand. He communicates in the same scattershot, intuitive way that his generation has been trained to assimilate and to express information, thanks to the usual litany of tens of thousands of hours of television advertising before they were even able to read, lousy schools, the glut of the information age, video games, etc. Kurt's lyrics make unusual sense of chaos. When he screams "a denial, a denial" over and over again at the end of "Teen Spirit," it's something that is understood on a deep level. And either you get it or you don't. It clearly draws the lines, even as it deals in universals. And it's one of the most transcendent moments in rock music." - from the book In 1993, a young rock journalist named Michael Azerrad published Come as You Are: The Story of Nirvana, an era-defining deep dive into Nirvana at their peak. Invited to write the book by Courtney Love, and with Kurt Cobain's blessing and the front man's promise he wouldn't make him change a word, Azerrad set out to tell the true story of the revolutionary band. Thirty years on, Azerrad has revisited the book he wrote back then, re-examining and illuminating what he originally reported, and providing essential glosses on the band's musical, cultural and historical contexts. The result is a thoroughly original book: THE AMPLIFIED COME AS YOU ARE (Harper One; October 24, 2023), a deluxe hardcover edition that fascinatingly "amplifies" the iconic bestseller. "Rereading this book for the annotated edition, I began to notice some patterns that I hadn't noticed when I was in the thick of writing the original version," says Azerrad, whose 2021 New Yorker piece touching on his friendship with Kurt Cobain became one of the magazine's most-read stories of the year. "Maybe I was too young to see them; maybe I was looking the other way because I was smitten by my subject; maybe I had to work too fast to notice such things. The idea behind THE AMPLIFIED COME AS YOU ARE is to comment on my 1993 book: to illuminate what's there, and mine it for insights on Nirvana, its members, and the time in which the band existed."

A jaw-dropping and thrilling real-life adventure on the high seas for a girl who just craved normality and finally found her way back to it' - Sarah Brown Aged just seven, Suzanne Heywood set sail with her parents and brother on a three-year voyage around the world.

Suzanne fought her parents, longing to return to England and to education and stability. This memoir covers her astonishing upbringing, a survival story of a child deprived of safety, friendships, schooling and occasionally drinking water. At seventeen Suzanne earned an interview at Oxford University and returned to the UK.
