  For a person who has not encountered John McPhee's lively writing, The Second John McPhee Reader is the perfect introduction. McPhee, author of Coming Into the Country, punctuates his delightful prose with a sharp sense of humor, and a fascination with things most of us never bother to notice. Whether he's profiling a northern Maine game warden named John McPhee in Table of Contents, or tracking down a fortune in "unofficial" art from the Soviet Union's Khrushchev-Brezhnev era in The Ransom of Russian Art, McPhee gives the listener an intimate and provocative glimpse at the physical landscape and into the people who are shaped by it. This Reader showcases a writer who not only is in absolute command of his craft, but also who revels in the pleasures of a fragile world. Narrator Nelson Runger's gravelly voice powerfully conveys McPhee's understated writing. Intriguing and thought-provoking, this audiobook is a must-listen for anyone interested in the natural or human worlds.

  It’s a trauma like no other. 
  Being perceived as a threat or, worse, hunted as food makes an animal attack a unique ordeal. Suddenly you’re helpless, at its mercy. When an animal strikes it is lightning fast, determined and can’t be reasoned with. Often brutally violent, such an attack can leave horrific injuries, both physical and emotional that endure long after the encounter. 
  Whether it’s a great white shark, a bear, lion, or other deadly predator, the impact such attacks can have on the victim, their families, the communities, and the wider human psyche is often profound and enduring. And when you add the media attention that such incidents often attract, the actual bite might not be the only attack a survivor has to endure. 
  In Bite Club, we meet brave people from around the world who have come face to face with sharks or other deadly predators and lived to tell the tale. And we learn of the group of survivors who are supporting each other to navigate, recover and grow from what is for many, their most traumatic experience ever.

  The Hobo: The Sociology Of The Homeless Man is a book written by Nels Anderson, which provides a comprehensive sociological study of the homeless population in America during the early 20th century. The book explores the lives and experiences of ""hobos"" - a term used to describe homeless men who traveled from place to place in search of work - and sheds light on the social and economic factors that led to their homelessness.Anderson's research is based on his own experiences living among the homeless population, as well as interviews with hundreds of hobos across the country. He examines the unique culture and social structures that developed within the hobo community, including their codes of conduct, language, and customs.The book also delves into the larger societal issues that contributed to the rise of homelessness during this time period, such as the Great Depression, industrialization, and the decline of traditional forms of work. Anderson argues that the hobo lifestyle was a response to these larger societal changes, and that understanding the hobo subculture is crucial to understanding the broader social and economic forces at play.Overall, The Hobo: The Sociology Of The Homeless Man is a groundbreaking work that provides a nuanced and empathetic look at the lives of homeless men during a tumultuous period in American history. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the sociology of homelessness, as well as anyone interested in the history of American society and culture.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
