Dust jacket has some wrinkling, chipping, and crease on the edges and corners, scattered light scratches, rubbing and scuffing, tanning and light shelf wear. Book lightly cocked and bowed, some bumped corners, wrinkling on the spine edges, half-title page cutout/missing, light tanning and shelf wear. 9.5"x6.5", 333 pages. Satisfaction Guaranteed. On March 24, 1989, the oil tanker Exxon Valdez went aground on Bligh Reef in Prince William Sound, Alaska, releasing more than ten million gallons of oil. At the time of the spill, longtime Alaska resident Art Davidson had just finished the text for Alakshak: The Great Country, a beautiful pictorial book celebrating pristine beauty of the Alaskan wilderness. Like other Alaska residents Davidson was shocked and angered by this senseless desecration of his homeland and, after receiving the go-ahead from Sierra Club Books that very day, he went to work immediately on a book. Davidson's story begins with a dramatic, minute-by-minute account of the wreck itself and the woefully ineffective oil spill response plans. He explores the reactions and interaction of the oil industry and government officials. But at the heart of the story are the heroic efforts of alarmed residents and volunteers trying desperately to save wildlife and contain the spreading oil. Fisherman Tom Copeland and his friends - using 5-gallon buckets to scoop up the oil - recovered more gallons a day from Prince William Sound than Exxon's best skimmer. Suzanne Marinelli, moved by television images of dying birds and otters, flew from her home on Kauai, Hawaii, to join volunteers pouring in from around the world to clean oil-soaked sea otters. And on Kodiak Island, in act of high-tech civil disobedience, Ray Monigold shut down Exxon's and VECO's regional computer systems (used to track oil spill operations) to protest the companies' delays in paying local people for their cleanup efforts. Determined to get the full story, Davidson also interviewed Exxon executives, state and federal decision-makers, environmental scientists, and Native villagers. Drawing on these exclusive accounts plus the myriad public documents generated by the disaster, Davidson present a compelling account of an environmental crisis beyond control and its devastating toll on Alaska's people, wildlife, and landscape. In the Wake of the Exxon Valdez is a story of environmental risk and the consequences that arise when greed and complacency undermine conscience, a forewarning of a disaster that could happen "wherever the world's tanker fleets transport oil." As Davidson observes, "Exxon played out a lesson in futility that the whole world needed to learn: No amount of money spent or personnel deployed can control a large oil spill.".

Salvatore Scarpitta: Outlaw Art at Racing Speeds. 17"x11.25", 40 pages. Satisfaction Guaranteed. Salvatore Scarpitta was an American artist best known for his sculptural studies of motion. Scarpitta was born in New York City in 1919 to a Sicilian father, sculptor Salvatore Cartaino Scarpitta, and Polish-Russian mother. His family relocated to Los Angeles when he was six months of age. He graduated from Hollywood High School, and then attended the premier art university in Europe, the Academia di Belle Arti in Rome. He served in the United States Navy during World War II as a "Monuments Man", finding, preserving and cataloging art stolen by the Nazis. After the war, Scarpitta remained in Rome and worked from his studio on Via Margutta. During his time in Rome he was represented by the leading Avant-garde modern art gallery in Italy, Galleria La Tartaruga. In 1958, Leo Castelli saw his work and asked him to move to New York and join his gallery. Scarpitta remained with Castelli until the latter's death in 1999. From 1959 until 1992, Scarpitta had 10 one man shows at the Castelli Gallery in New York. He also was a part of many Castelli group shows that included artists such as Norman Bluhm, Andy Warhol, Robert Rauschenberg, James Rosenquist, John Chamberlain and Julian Schnabel. Scarpitta's works are part of the permanent collections at the Museum of Modern Art and MoMA PS1 in New York, Whitney Museum of American Art, the Albright-Knox Art Gallery, Los Angeles County Museum of Art, the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden in Washington, DC, the Kunstsammlungen zu Weimar Museum in Germany, Civico Museo d'Arte Contemporanea in Milan, the Guttuso Museum in Italy and the Contemporary Arts Museum Houston.

A captivating tale of love, war, art, and revenge. 9.25"x6", 212 pages. Satisfaction Guaranteed. Andrés Faulques, a world-renowned war photographer, has retired to a life of solitude on the Spanish coast. On the walls of a tower overlooking the sea, he spends his days painting a huge mural that pays homage to history's classic works of war art and that incorporates a lifetime of disturbing images. One night, an unexpected visitor arrives at Faulques' door and challenges the painter to remember him. As Faulques struggles to recall the face, the man explains that he was the subject of an iconic photo taken by Faulques in a war zone years ago. "And why have you come looking for me?" asks Faulques. The stranger answers, "Because I'm going to kill you." This story transports Faulques to the time when he crossed continents to capture conflicts on film with his lover, Olvido, at his side. Until she walked into his life, Faulques muses, he had believed he would survive both war and women. As the tense dialogue between Faulques and his visitor continues, the stakes grow ever higher. What they are grappling with quickly proves to be not just Faulques' fate but the very nature of human love and cruelty itself. Arturo Pérez-Reverte perfectly balances the shadows of the heart with the chaos of war in this stunning composition on morality. Superb and tautly written, The Painter of Battles is a deeply affecting novel about life and art.. Advance Reading Copy (ARC). Book Condition: Very Good. Binding: Paperback.

Arturo Pérez-Reverte Gutiérrez is a Spanish novelist and journalist. He worked as a war correspondent for RTVE and was a war correspondent for 21 years (1973-1994). His first novel, El húsar, set in the Napoleonic Wars, was released in 1986. He is well known outside Spain for his "Alatriste" series of novels. He is now a member of the Royal Spanish Academy, a position he has held since 12 June 2003. Pérez-Reverte's novels are usually centered on one strongly defined character, and his plots move along swiftly, often featuring a narrator who is part of the story but apart from it. Most of his novels take place in Spain or around the Mediterranean, and often draw on numerous references to Spanish history, colonial past, art and culture, ancient treasures and the sea. The novels frequently deal with some of the major issues of modern Spain such as drug trafficking or the relationship of religion and politics. Often, Pérez-Reverte's novels have two plots running in parallel with very little connection between them except for shared characters. For example, in The Club Dumas, the protagonist is searching the world for a lost book and keeps meeting people who parallel figures from Dumas novels; the movie made from it, The Ninth Gate, did not feature the Dumas connection with no loss of narrative momentum. In The Flanders Panel, a contemporary serial killer is juxtaposed with the mystery of a 500-year-old assassination. In his often polemical newspaper columns and the main characters of his novels, Pérez-Reverte often displays pessimism about human behavior, shaped by his wartime experiences in places like El Salvador, Croatia or Bosnia and his research for crime shows. Throughout his career, and especially in its latter half, he has been notorious for cultivating his now trademark maverick, non-partisan and at times abrasive persona. This has occasionally been a source of conflict with other journalists and writers. He originally refused to have his novels translated from the original Spanish to any language other than French. However, English translations were eventually made available for some of his works, and most of his work is also available in Portuguese and Polish. Pérez-Reverte was elected to seat T of the Real Academia Española on 23 January 2003 and took up his seat on 12 June the same year. Awards and recognition - *The Painter of Battles was the winner of the 2008 Premio Gregor von Rezzori award for foreign fiction translated into Italian. *In 2016 Pérez-Reverte was named as one of the 10 most important writers of the year by the Spanish national newspaper ABC, alongside novelists including Eduardo Mendoza and Andrés Pascual..

Imprint: New York, Times Books, 2012 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. CA3 - A 2nd printing hardcover book SIGNED by author on the half-title page in very good condition in very good dust jacket. Dust jacket and book have some bumped corners, light discoloration and shelf wear. The first official White House videographer chronicles his time in the White House, capturing behind-the-scenes, human moments of President Obama and his administration, and changing the nature of how we document history. 9.5"x6.5", 306 pages. Satisfaction Guaranteed. From the early months of the 2008 campaign and through the first two and a half years of the Obama administration, Arun Chaudhary had a unique perspective on the president of the United States. "I'm sort of like President Obama's wedding videographer," he explains, "if every day was a wedding with the same groom but a constantly rotating set of hysterical guests." Some of the moments Chaudhary captures are small, like the president throwing warm-up pitches deep inside Busch Stadium in St. Louis before the All-Star game. Some are intensely emotional, as when Obama comforts a grieving teenager whose father had died in a devastating tornado. And some are just plain bizarre - like helping Senator Obama escape a bar full of drunken college students at eleven in the morning, or being trapped in the White House bathroom while the president conducted a YouTube town hall on the other side of the door. Chaudhary preserved all of these for history, like the half-eaten sausage stolen off the plate of then junior senator from Illinois that later reappeared on eBay. Film and politics have been intertwined ever since the first Edison reels rattled in projection halls a century ago. But with the advent of new technologies and a new public that is hungry for images of their leaders, Chaudhary has been in the right place at the right time to participate in the interplay of film and politics at the very highest level. From Zanesville, Ohio, to Zuccoti Park, his funny and eye-opening account - which includes stories and images of key players such as Barack and Michelle Obama, Joe Biden, and Hillary Clinton, among others - gives readers an unprecedented backstage look at their government and their president in these historic and challenging times..
