My Friend Leonard

Perhaps the most unconventional and literally breathtaking father-son story you’ll ever read, My Friend Leonard pulls you immediately and deeply into a relationship as unusual as it is inspiring.

In the bold and heartbreaking My Friend Leonard, James Frey picks up the story of his extraordinary life pretty much where things left off in his breakout bestseller and Amazon.com Best Book of 2003, A Million Little Pieces, the fierce, in-your-face memoir about Frey’s kamikaze run of self-destruction and his days in rehab. Fresh from a stint in jail from pre-rehab-related charges (“On my first day in jail, a three hundred pound man named Porterhouse hit me in the back of the head with a metal tray.”), clean-living Frey returns to Chicago and gets sucker-punched with a cruel blow that will leave readers ducking for cover in anticipation of the blinding bender that’s sure to come.

Iwo Jima: World War II Veterans Remember the Greatest Battle of the Pacific

The men who fought and survived the deadliest battle of the Pacific—in their own words.

On February 19, 1945, nearly 70,000 American marines invaded a tiny volcanic island in the Pacific. Over the next thirty-five days, approximately 28,000 combatants died, including nearly 22,000 Japanese and 6,821 Americans, making Iwo Jima one of the costliest battles of World War II. Bestselling author Larry Smith lets twenty-two veterans tell the story of this epic clash in their own words; the result is a “superb and fascinating work by one of our nation’s leading oral historians” (Jay Winik, author of April 1865).
