  Basketball (and Other Things) -...

  This book is made up of thirty-three chapters. Each chapter is a different basketball question that needs to be answered. Some of them are obviously crucial (Example: What's the Most Important NBA Championship?) and some of them are secretly crucial (Example: Was Kobe Bryant a Dork?). But all of them are approached in ways that (I hope you think) are smart and fun and nuanced. Also, you should know ahead of time that some of the pieces go a bit sideways sometimes, like the chapter that ends up just being the script of an action movie, or the other chapter that’s actually just a bunch of lists and nothing else. Basketball is fun. —Shea

  Winner: Mountain Literature Award, Banff Mountain Book Festival 2018
  Shortlisted for the 2018 Boardman Tasker Award for Mountain Literature
  Nick Bullock is a climber who lives in a small green van, flitting between Llanberis, Wales, and Chamonix in the French Alps. Tides, Nick's second book, is the much-anticipated follow-up to his critically acclaimed debut Echoes.
  Now retired from the strain of work as a prison officer, Nick is free to climb. A lot. Tides is a treasury of his antics and adventures with some of the world's leading climbers, including Steve House, Kenton Cool, Nico Favresse, Andy Houseman and James McHaffie. Follow Nick and his partners as they push the limits on some of the world's most serious routes: The Bells! The Bells! on Gogarth's North Stack Wall; the Slovak Direct on Denali; Guerdon Grooves on Buachaille Etive Mor; and the north faces of Chang Himal and Mount Alberta, among countless others.
  Nick's life can be equated to the rhythm of the sea. At high tide, he climbs, he loves it, he is good at it; he laughs and jokes, scares himself, falls, gets back up and climbs some more. Then the tide goes out and he finds himself alone, exposed, all questions and no answers. Self-doubt, grieving for friends or family, fearful, sometimes opinionated, occasionally angry – his writing more honest and exposed than in any account of a climb. Only when the tide turns is he able to forget once more.
  Tides is a gripping memoir that captures the very essence of what it means to dedicate one's life to climbing.

  The creator of Survivorman recounts a wide range of wilderness survival stories and shares lessons from them that could save your life. 
   
  In a survival situation, a wrong decision could spell the difference between life and death. 
   
  No one knows this better than Les Stroud, who has survived everywhere from the sun-scorched sands of the Kalahari to the snake-infested jungles of the Amazon. In Will to Live, Les examines many incredible true-life survival stories—explaining what happened and why, and offering valuable perspectives on what went right, what went wrong, and what could have been done differently. The tales in Will to Live include: 
   
  Chris McCandless—the subject of the book and movie Into the Wild. 
   
  Yossi Ghinsberg—who survived alone in the Amazon for twenty-one days. 
   
  Douglas Mawson—the Antarctic “superman” who survived three hellish months at the bottom of the planet. 
   
  Nando Parrado—who was trapped for two months high in the Andes after a plane crash killed his friends and family. 
   
  Plus . . . stories from Les’s own experiences, along with practical sidebars with tips on how to escape quicksand, butcher a moose, cross a snow-covered crevasse, and more. 
   
  Provocative and entertaining, Will to Live is a compilation of history’s most intriguing survival stories from one of the world’s foremost experts. 
   
  “He offers intelligent tips—if you’re traveling somewhere remote, tell people where you’re going, take a well-stocked survival kit, and keep a cool head if you get lost—and he does an excellent job of putting readers into the situations he’s discussing, making us feel the cold or the panic or the sheer desperation.” —Booklist
