Summary

The author has strong connections with various chronic pain and pet therapy organizations such as the National Fibromyalgia and Chronic Pain Association (NFMCPA, 150,000 mailing list subscribers, 175,000 Facebook followers), the American Society of Pain Educators, Fibromyalgia Care Society of America (FCSA), Animal Assisted Therapy, and CancerCare (25,800 Facebook followers). The author’s contacts have committed to promoting the book--including Martha McCallum, Fox Five news anchor; Jan Chambers, president of the NFMCPA, Mark Levin of Life, Liberty, and Levin on Fox Five; Steve Doocey, Fox Five morning news anchor; Debra Weiner of The American Society of Pain Educators; Amy North of World Institute of Pain; Michele Powers of NJ News 12, and many more.
The book will publish to coincide with Pain Week in September, the largest pain conference in the US.
Her story and Bunny Boy have been featured in publications and sites such as Arthritis Today Magazine, Pain Pathways Magazine, The American Chronic Pain Association newsletter, Pain View Magazine, NFMCPA’s magazine, Clio’s Psyche, Rabbits USA magazine, Petcha.com, Pet Partners, and Bunnies in Baskets. She has also been featured on NJ Channel 12 Petstop. She will reach out to her contacts for new features.
The author intends to approach names like Lady Gaga, Oprah Winfrey, Katie Couric, and Martha McCallum and Steve Doocy of Fox 5 to help promote the book.
There has never been a memoir about a pet rabbit and his owner, whose bond enabled both of them to overcome similar chronic illnesses. Bunny Boy’s story is unique, vital, and one of a kind.
The book will appeal to all animal lovers or pet owners, specifically those who own pet rabbits, as well as to anyone suffering from chronic pain and autoimmune disease. 
1 in 3 Americans suffer from chronic pain (116 million people). Chronic pain costs the US more than 600 billion each year. There is no “cure” for chronic pain except for administering drugs, and nondrug therapies such as pet therapy is becoming extremely popular and successful.
1.98 million people in the US own a rabbit. There were about 6.6 million pet rabbits in America (2010). 164 million people in the US own a pet, and total pet expenditures in 2016 was $66.75 billion. 
The popularity of pet memoirs continues to surge, according to articles by Newsweek and the Independent. Books about the human-animal bond like Marley and Me (2005) and A Dog’s Purpose (2016) are bestsellers.
Available since: 09/04/2018.

    Why would anyone run for president?  
    Everyone believes you need a big name, deep pockets, and partisan clout to even try—and with good reason. But does it have to be that way, and could a no-name scientist from Florida have a shot at the Oval Office? This is the story of finding that answer. It’s part memoir, part critique, and part tell-all on some of the unwritten rules of American politics. Told by a psychologist and former civil servant, this book sheds light on the often-shadowed ecosystem of national politics, interwoven with my own experience campaigning across the fifty states. It’s a book for anyone irritated with the current climate, for those wanting a glimpse at the inner-workings of our political apparatus, and for those looking for hope for our nation. It’s a book about the American experience—in all its raw, irreverent, loving, surprising, and inspirational glory.

    Barbecue: It's America in a mouthful. The story of barbecue touches almost every aspect of our history. It involves indigenous culture, the colonial era, slavery, the Civil War, the settling of the West, the coming of immigrants, the Great Migration, the rise of the automobile, the expansion of suburbia, the rejiggering of gender roles. It encompasses every region and demographic group. It is entwined with our politics and tangled up with our race relations. 
     
    Jim Auchmutey follows the delicious and contentious history of barbecue in America from the ox roast that celebrated the groundbreaking for the US Capitol building to the first barbecue launched into space almost 200 years later. The narrative covers the golden age of political barbecues, the evolution of the barbecue restaurant, the development of backyard cooking, and the recent rediscovery of traditional barbecue craft. Along the way, Auchmutey considers the mystique of barbecue sauces, the spectacle of barbecue contests, the global influences on American barbecue, the roles of race and gender in barbecue culture, and the many ways barbecue has been portrayed in our art and literature. It's a spicy story that involves noted Americans from George Washington and Abraham Lincoln to Louis Armstrong, Elvis Presley, Martin Luther King Jr., and Barack Obama.

    This collection of writings and images by the legendary Big Bend photographer offers adventure, history, personal musings, and natural beauty.   Photographer-naturalist Peter Koch first visited Big Bend National Park in February, 1945, on assignment to take promotional pictures for the National Park Service. He planned to spend a couple of weeks, and ended up staying for the rest of his life. Koch’s magnificent photographs and documentary films introduced the park to people across the United States and remain an invaluable visual record of the first four decades of Big Bend National Park.   In this book, Koch’s daughter June Cooper Price draws on her father’s photographs, newspaper columns, and journal entries, as well as short pieces by other family members, to present his vision and many experiences of the Big Bend. The adventure begins with a six-day photographic trip through Santa Elena Canyon on a raft made from agave flower stalks. Koch also describes hiking on mountain trails and driving the scenic loop around Fort Davis; “wax smuggling” and other ways of making a living on the Mexican border; ranching in the Big Bend; collaborating with botanist Barton Warnock; and the history and beauty of Presidio County, the Rio Grande, and the Chihuahuan Desert.

    London Rules - So Get Over It

    We are constantly being told that 1966, the very first iteration of Swinging London, was the time when the city was at its cultural, most fashionable height. And if not 1966, then it's the punk '70s or the Britpop '90s when London was meant to be most fun. Not so, argues GQ's Dylan Jones. Not only is London the greatest, most dynamic and diverse city in the world - it's never been better than it is now.
    Comparison may be the thief of joy, and it might be invidious to square London off against New York, Milan or Paris - which is heavier, a tonne of feathers or a tonne of gold? - but right now there is no other city in the world like it. It is already the greatest city of the twenty-first century, the one true global cultural megalopolis, the one true cocksure city-state, and we need to shout about it from the top of every tall building in town.
