Hard cover. First edition. Unabridged. Inhabiting the Sierra Madre Occidental of southwestern Chihuahua in Mexico, the Tarahumara (or Rarámuri) are known in their language as the "foot runners" due to the way in which they must navigate their rugged terrain. This book offers an accessible ethnography of their history, customs,…and current life, accompanied by photographs that offer striking images of these gentle people. The subtitle of the book derives from the Tarahumar's belief that the soul works at night while the body sleeps and that during this "day of the moon" both the spirits of the dead and the souls of the living move about in their mysterious ways. As the authors observe, the fact that "so many men, women, and children persist in distinctive, centuries-old cultural traditions in spite of their nearness to all the complexities and attractions of modern industrial society is an importatn part of the story." Their book tells that story and brings readers closer to understanding the Tarahumara world and way of life. Fine in very good dust jacket. dustjacket is very good minus, some shelfwear but no tears of note, mild edgewear, no ownership marks, first printing.

Illustrated with black-and-white photographs and map illustrated front and rear endpapers. "A masterful work of literary journalism crafted with the urgency of a mystery." - The Boston Globe. "Holy hell. If you like true crime - maybe even if you don't - you'd be hard-pressed to find a story as convincing as Killers of the Flower Moon." - GQ. "A marvel of detective-like research and narrative verve." - Financial Times. "Masterful.Filled with almost mythic characters from our past.It's a haunting tale of unimaginable betrayal, naked greed, and the birth of modern law enforcement." - Rolling Stone. "A meticulously researched and masterfully spun chronicle." - Entertainment Weekly. "Deeply intriguing.Powerful.Evocative. Its narrative is so prominent that many readers might forget they are learning about a dark, forgotten chapter in American history. That combination of readability and socially conscious journalism is what makes the book so valuable." - Columbia Journalism Review. ".a twisting, haunting true-life murder mystery about one of the most monstrous crimes in American history. In the 1920s, the richest people per capita in the world were members of the Osage Indian nation in Oklahoma. After oil was discovered beneath their land, they rode in chauffeured automobiles, built mansions, and sent their children to study in Europe. Then, one by one, the Osage began to be killed off. The family of an Osage woman, Mollie Burkhart, became a prime target. Her relatives were shot and poisoned. And it was just the beginning, as more and more members of the tribe began to die under suspicious circumstances. In this last remnat of the Wild West - where oilmen such as J.P. Getty made their fourtunes and where desperadoes such as AL Spencer, the "Phantom Terror," roamed - many of those who dared to investigate the killings were themselves murdered. As the death toll climbed to more than twenty-four, the relatively new FBI took over. It was one of the organization's first major homicide cases but the bureau badly bungled the investigation. In desperation, the young director, J. Edgar Hoover, turned to a former Texas Ranger named Tom White to unravel the mystery. White put together an undercover team, including an American Indian agent in the bureau. Together with the Osage they began to expose one of the most chilling conspiracies in American history. In Killers of the Flower Moon, David Grann revisits a shocking series of crimes in which dozens of people were murdered in cold blood. Based on years of research and startling new evidence, the book is a masterpiece of narrative nonfiction, as each step in the investigation reveals a series of sinister secrets and reversals. But more than that, it is a searing indictment of the callousness and prejudice toward American Indians that allowed the murderers to operate with impunity for so long. Killers of the Flower Moon is utterly compelling, but also emotionally devastating." - from the inner front and rear jacket flaps. Carella, Maria (book design); Ward, Jeffrey L.

Includes List of Other Book(s) by Susan Casey; Author Dedication; Preliminary Page Quote by Friedrich Nietzsche;… Introduction; Epilogue; Acknowledgments; Selected Bibliography; Illustration Credits and A Note About the Author. "Something is stewing in our seas, and Casey - traveling, and in some cases swimming, all around the world - is eager to find out what it is. Both a rollicking look at the ocean's growing freakishness and a troubling examination of our ailing planet, The Wave gives new meaning to the term 'immersion reporting.'" - Hampton Sides, author. "At once scary and fun, The Wave surprises at every turn." - Elizabeth Kolbert, author. "Like the surfers and scientists she profiles, Casey lived and breathed giant waves for years, combining an insane passion for craft with an uncanny ability to describe the indescribable. In The Wave she whisks the reader off to unimaginably surreal settings and puts them in the middle of mind-blowing scenarios. This book sucked me in like the undertow at Pipeline." - Mary Roach, author. "From Susan Casey, the bestselling author of The Devil's Teeth, an astonishing book about colossal, ship-swallowing waves, and the surfers and scientists who seek them out. For centuries, mariners have spun stories of gargantuan rogue waves, one hundred feet high or more, appearing seemingly from nowhere. Until recently scientists dismissed these stories as typical sailor tall tales - because waves that high would seem to violate the laws of physics. But in the past few decades, a startling number of ships vanished in the depths of the ociean - massive freighters sunk so quickly there was often no time for an SOS call - and credible eyewitenss accounts emerged, such as one from the captain of the Queen Elizabeth 2, who swore the liner was hit by a wave taller than the ninety-five-foot bridge. Faced with mounting evidence, marine scientists realized something truly scary was brewing in the planet's waters. They found their proof in February 2000, when the British research vessel RRS Discovery was trapped in the North Atlantic in a vortex of impossibly mammoth waves, including several that approached one hundred feet. As scientists scramble to understand the phenomenon of immense waves, another breed of people view them as the ultimate challenge. These are extreme surfers, who scan global weather updates on dedicated websites and fly around the world looking for the ocean's monsters. That this is possible at all is due to the pioneering techniques of legendary surfer Laird Hamilton, who, with a group of friends in Hawaii, figured out how to ride terrifyingly large wavees of seventy and eighty feet. When a surf company offered a huge bounty to be given to the first person to ride a hundred-foot wave, less-accomplished surfers entered the sport, and the stakes became life or death. Susan Casey does a magnificent job painting the extraordinary subculture of this unique tribe of people - their codes, their addiction to risks that others would view as borderline insane, their amazing physical feats, and their feeling for the infinite strength of the ocean. In Casey's mesmerizing account, the exploits of Hamilton and his fellow extreme surfers are juxtaposed against the scientists' urgent efforts to understand the annihilating power of waves, from the tsunami that wiped out 250,000 people in the Pacific in 2004 (and the tsunami that could arise in the Atlantic and sweep the East Coast of the United States), to the threat to the global shipping system, to the 1,740-foot wave that leveled part of the Alaskan coast. With inexorable, adrenaline-fueled verve, The Wave brilliantly portrays human beings confronting nature at its most ferocious." - from the inner front and rear jacket flaps. Thouard, Benjamin (jacket photograph); Fontana, John (jacket design); Carella, Maria (book design); Ward, Jeffrey L. (map designs) (illustratore).

As new condition black boards with gold spine lettering contained in a fine condition color photographic dust jacket. Includes Preface. "From the author of Conclave and All the Pope's Men comes the story of Pope John Paul II's last days, the behind-the-scenes dynamic…s within the College of Cardinals that led to the choice of Joseph Ratzinger as Pope Benedict XVI, and where the new pope is likely to lead th Catholic church. On April 18, 2005, the College of Cardinals of the Roman Catholic Church gathered to elect a successor to Pope John Paul II. Faced with several potential candidates, the cardinals made a bold choice, entrusting the Keys of the Kingdom to seventy-eight-year-old Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger of Germany, a man whose views on the challenges facing the Church and the broader culture could not be more unambiguous, or controversial. Questions arose as the world watched while Ratzinger was installed as Pope Benedict XVI, the 266th pontiff of the Catholic Church. Why Ratzinger? Why somehone so clearly identified with the previous pope? Why not a "compromise" choice? Why a cardinal from Western Europe and not from African or Latin America? What would this mean for the future of the Catholic Church? No one can tell the story of exactly what took place during the secretive meeting, known as the conclave, when cardinals from around the world cast their votes for the next pope, better than John L. Allen, Jr. As a correspondent for the National Catholic Reporter and a Vatican analyst for CNN and National Public Radio, Allen has spent years covering Vatican politics and personalities, and his unique access to Roman halls of power has enabled him to write the ultimate behind-the-scenes account of the election of Pope Benedict XVI. The Rise of Benedict XVI is based on extensive research and exclusive interviews with eight cardinals representing five nationalities, guaranteeing readers an intimate glimpse into this monumental decision. But Allen's insight also means that he is in a unique position to evaluate the accomplishments and legacy of the man now known as Pope Benedict XVI, and to provide some analysis of the direction he will take the Catholic Church in the coming years. Ratzinger's long career as a major Vatican insider, force of influence, and occasionally polarizing figure, has ensured that his pontificate will be one of the most fascinating in the history of the Catholic Church. Benedict XVI will certainly have a major impact on the lives of the faithful around the world, and John Allen's riveting new book is the definitive work on this turning point in history." - from the inner front and rear jacket flaps. Benedetti, Alessandra (jacket photograph); Fontana, John (jacket design) (illustratore).
