  The Morals of Diet - The First Step

  Leo Tolstoy

  Written in 1892, during the later years of his life, Leo Tolstoy’s The Morals of Diet reflects the profound spiritual transformation that reshaped his outlook after Anna Karenina and War and Peace. In the decades following his literary success, Tolstoy underwent a moral and religious awakening, renouncing wealth, privilege, and the comforts of aristocratic life. He sought a simpler, purer existence grounded in truth, humility, and nonviolence. This period gave rise to his moral essays — What I Believe, The Kingdom of God Is Within You, and The Morals of Diet (The First Step) — in which he strove to align daily actions with spiritual conscience. 
  The First Step emerges from this search for ethical coherence. Ostensibly an essay about vegetarianism, it is in fact a meditation on the nature of moral progress and the necessity of compassion. Tolstoy argues that abstaining from the killing of animals is the first, most tangible act of moral purification — “the first step” toward a life of genuine goodness. For him, cruelty, however subtle or socially accepted, degrades the human spirit. To refrain from violence, even in small forms, is to begin transforming one’s relationship to all living beings.

  This program is read by the author.“This is a great audiobook for nature lovers, carpenters, and people who dream of their hobby becoming their day job.”—AudioFileA memoir of the author's journey from an office job to restoring a cabin in the Pacific Northwest, based on his wildly popular Outside Magazine piece.Wit’s End isn’t just a state of mind. It’s the name of a gravel road, the address of a rundown, off-the-grid cabin, 120 shabby square feet of fixer-upper Patrick Hutchison purchased on a whim in the mossy woods of the Cascade Mountains in Washington state.To say Hutchison didn’t know what he was getting into is no more an exaggeration than to say he’s a man with nearly zero carpentry skills. Well, used to be. You can learn a lot over six years of renovations. CABIN is the story of those renovations, but it's also a love story; of a place, of possibilities, and of the process of construction, of seeing what could be instead of what is. It is an audiobook for those who know what it’s like to bite off more than you can chew, or who desperately wish to.A Macmillan Audio production from St. Martin’s Press.

  By a self-made millionaire, unapologetic artist, and global misfit Buckle up for a wild ride through the unfiltered mind of a man who made millions slapping stickers on society’s expectations and then threw it all to the wind. From sexcapades in Colombia to lockdown life in Vietnam, from chopper rides through Long Beach to whorehouses in Eastern Europe, this brutally honest memoir is raw, hilarious, offensive, and deeply human. He's been rich and reckless, poor and poetic. He’s dodged rip tides, dreamt of Candace Owens with devil tails, and cursed at the ghost of Trump in a psychedelic nightmare. He’s slept with models, fought acid reflux, and tried to win back a son lost to time and distance. There are no filters here. No apologies. Just the chaotic, horny, and hilarious truth. This is not for the easily offended. This is not for the faint-hearted. This is My Socially Hazardous Life Vol. 2. Drenched in sarcasm. Fueled by travel. Driven by rebellion. If Hunter S. Thompson and Bukowski had a baby raised by a pissed-off surfer from Long Beach, this would be his book. Are you ready for the ride?
