The Green Road Home


Gloriously available again, forty years after it was first published—now with a new introduction by Brad Faxon, a new afterword by the author, and a batch of newly discovered time-capsule photos—The Green Road Home is the classic account of a young caddie on the PGA Tour, and the book that launched Michael Bamberger as a bestselling author. In 1985, Michael Bamberger was a twenty-something college grad and golf nut with a daunting dream: to become a caddie on the PGA Tour. His hope was to travel widely and deeply, to see the game up close and personal, and to be accepted into the vagabond guild of professional caddies. When the great golf writer Dan Jenkins heard about Bamberger’s gig, he said, “Finally, an Ivy Leaguer carrying the bags of other people.” Bamberger had his own take. He was looking for adventure. As William Least Heat-Moon had his blue highways, Bamberger had green ones. The Green Road Home, first published in 1986, takes you inside the ropes, and inside the heads of the players Bamberger caddied for. You’ll hang with the author in New York and New Orleans and Las Vegas. You’ll get to know a wide range of golfers, legends like Al Geiberger (the first player on Tour to shoot 59) and George Archer (winner of the 1969 Masters), as well as Steve Elkington (future winner of the PGA Championship) and Bill Britton (future golf coach at Monmouth University). The author gets road and life advice from a colleague named Killer. He caddies in the US and British Opens and in the vicinity of Jack Nicklaus and Tom Watson. He plays in the Tour’s annual Caddie Classic golf tournament and the caddie-player softball game. The Green Road Home is a funny and heartfelt account of what it takes to make it as a touring pro—and as a touring caddie. This book is about the 1985 season on Tour. Turns out, it was a pivotal one. We now know what we didn’t then, that Bamberger was witnessing the end of the line for the Tour as a mom-and-pop operation. (In ’85, the annual tournament in Pebble Beach was still named for Bing Crosby. A year later, it became the AT&T.) Whether you’ve been following the game all your life or are new to it, The Green Road Home is a window into a magical time in the pro game. In this charming book, a young writer finds his own voice, and a young man finds his own way.

Next Time on Dragon Ball


How media production and fan play interact to shape the aesthetics of a global anime franchiseSince its debut in 1984, Dragon Ball has become one of the most popular, influential, and lucrative global media franchises in the world. In Next Time on Dragon Ball, Vincent Haddad investigates how the franchise has maintained huge global demand despite its formulaic plotlines. Examining its exhaustive repetition of storytelling forms across comics, TV series, games, and merchandise, Haddad argues that the convergence of play, fandom, and narrative made Dragon Ball an unlikely success—and a harbinger of broader shifts in the media landscape of franchises from the 1980s to the present.Haddad conceives of Dragon Ball as a "franchise toy," a corporate media property that is constantly remixed by its fans in ways that its owners resist but also ultimately embrace: appropriation is essential to the franchise's popularity. Over the past forty years, Haddad argues, Dragon Ball's deployment of familiar tropes, cultural references, and narrative forms—from classical Chinese stories and the films of Bruce Lee and Jackie Chan to American franchises like Superman and Star Wars—has invited unique transcultural play. Through diverse examples of how fans use its characters as "playthings," Haddad shows how Dragon Ball travels across international networked fandoms, highlighting the queer, gendered, and racialized dimensions of this play.Parsing the dynamics of "sites of conflict" between authorized media and fan content, Next Time on Dragon Ball illuminates how fan engagement across the Americas changes the parameters of what a manga and anime franchise is and can be.Retail e-book files for this title are screen-reader friendly with images accompanied by short alt text and/or extended descriptions.

The Great Outdoors


From USA TODAY bestseller Kayla Olson, a new rom-com about a high-maintenance woman who embarks on a wilderness trek to prove to her ex how low-maintenance she can be—only to find herself with no makeup and an extremely attractive trek leader. Those who say “be prepared” never met Sadie Whitlock. Sadie has always been praised for being the most prepared person in the room, the one who’s thought of everything—and every backup plan—for any given situation. She knows exactly what she wants, exactly what she loves, and goes to great lengths to make sure her life runs perfectly as planned. So, when her laidback boyfriend breaks up with her for being “too high-maintenance,” Sadie is eager to prove him wrong, and signs herself up for a weeks-long guided wilderness adventure in the High Sierras of California: camping, hiking, rappelling, and kayaking. It’s the most miserable, uncomfortable situation she can think of. Sadie’s a five-star resort girl at heart, but she has a compelling—and suspiciously attractive—tour guide: August Thorn. Thorn lives for adventure and always keeps a professional distance from the trekkers under his care…but there’s just something about Sadie, and for the first time, he finds himself wanting to get closer. As they explore the wilderness together, Sadie realizes the great outdoors might truly be great with the right person.

Where Tourists Seldom Tread


A perceptive, generous survey of Britain’s towns, in all their grit and glory.Take your pick. Dubrovnik or Doncaster? Corfu or Crewe? A safari in Kenya or an abandoned zoo on the Isle of Man? Most people in the United Kingdom live and work in towns. Only a handful of these ordinarily qualify as conventional tourist destinations, with most deemed too plain, rundown or unfun to be worthy of a leisure visit, but they have much to offer for the inquisitive traveler.Travelling from Warrington, Birkenhead and Slough to East Kilbride, Armagh, Newport and beyond, Chris Moss seeks out Britain’s bypassed towns. As he encounters the rich stories and spirits of these places, peeling back layers of history and culture, he considers why most have ignored the hidden pleasures they have to offer, be they Stockport''s viaduct, one of the largest brick structures in the world; the scene-defining punk venues of Paisley; or Ipswich’s ancient origins (the town being twice the age of Machu Picchu). Where Tourists Seldom Tread is an invitation to move away from the preference for major cities and rural idylls and offers a new field guide to the country.

Song of Seven Cloaks


The Red Beast is no more. Two companions stand above its fallen form and take its head for their trophy. But the Red Beast was only the beginning of the hunt. The Seven Cloaks, the strange gemlike guardians of the Cedar Forest, live on. They flee the axe and embed themselves deep in the ancient maze humming with magic. So long as they survive, the cedars can never be claimed for the great City in the east, and the hunt will go unfinished. As the hunters set off after their prey, it soon becomes clear that each Cloak is much more than the simple gemstone whose shape it takes. The trials our companions face in the cedars’ shade will change them – but can they change their fates? Inspired by a brief episode in the Epic of Gilgamesh, this original tale in verse offers an adventure filled with life and doom, and the many colours that burst across both.
