  Marine Speak: Collected Stories...

  From the wire surrounding a Vietnam compound to the uneasy journey home, J. R. Henry T'Ostian tells his story in the language he lived it. 
  Marine Speak is an unfiltered autobiography of a young Marine's experiences in Vietnam during 1968 and 1969, and the memories that followed him into civilian life. Through convoy ambushes, nights at an observation post, friendships forged under fire, and a brief escape to Australia on R&R, T'Ostian recalls a world where danger, loyalty, grief, and dark humor shared the same ground. 
  At the heart of his account are the men beside him: the friends who made the days bearable, the Marines he depended on, and those whose absence he would carry long after leaving Vietnam. Returning home brought its own struggles—learning to live beyond combat while remaining bound to the people and experiences that had shaped him. 
  Alongside his military memories, T'Ostian shares personal reflections, poems, and irreverent stories about love, betrayal, faith, forgiveness, and survival. His voice is blunt, profane, sometimes angry, and deeply personal. 
  For readers of Vietnam veteran autobiographies and Marine Corps memoirs, Marine Speak offers one man's account of service, loss, and the lifelong meaning of being a Marine. 
  Contains strong language, graphic accounts of violence, and explicit sexual material. Intended for adult readers.

  Thirty Below - The Harrowing and...

  The gripping story of a group of female adventurers and their treacherous pioneering ascent of Denali in 1970 
    
  Cassidy Randall draws on extensive archival research and original interviews to tell an engrossing, edge-of-the-seat adventure story about a forgotten group of climbers who had the audacity to believe that women could walk alone in extraordinary and treacherous heights. 
    
  Grace Hoeman dreamed of standing on top of Denali. The tallest peak in North America, the fierce polar mountain loomed large in many climbers’ imaginations, and Grace, a doctor in Alaska, had come close to the top, only to be turned back by altitude sickness and a storm that took the lives of seven fellow climbers in one remorseless blow. 
    
  Other expeditions denied her a place because of her gender, and when a letter arrived from a climber in California named Arlene Blum, who’d also been barred from expeditions—unless she stayed in base camp and cooked for the men, Grace got a defiant idea: she would organize and lead the first-ever all-female ascent of the frozen Alaskan peak. 
    
  Everyone told the “Denali Damsels,” as the team called themselves, that it couldn’t be done: Women were incapable of climbing mountains on their own. Men had walked on the moon; women still had not stood on the highest points on Earth. But these six women were unwilling to be limited by sexists and misogynists. They pushed past barriers in society at large, the climbing world, and their own bodies. 
    
  And then, when disaster struck at the worst time on their expedition, they could either keep their wits and prove their mettle, or die and confirm the worst opinions of men. 
    
  “Thirty Below is fast paced, with incredible characters who make you appreciate how far mountaineering (and society in general) has progressed in the last fifty years and exciting all the way to the end. This is a gripping story that's worth telling, and Randall has done a great job in bringing it to life.”—Alex Honnold, professional climber and author of Alone on the Wall
