  For a Handful of Feathers

  An avid hunter and wildlife preservationist, the Field & Stream contributor explores these seemingly opposed passions in this “beautifully written” memoir (The Bloomsbury Review).   After traveling the globe on expeditions with world-class sportsmen, Guy de la Valdéne purchased an eight hundred–acre farm outside Tallahassee and set out to raise and hunt his favorite game bird, bobwhite quail. But de la Valdéne is also a naturalist at heart, and as he planted trees and divided fields, he found that running the farm compelled him to operate as both hunter and protector.   Along the way, de la Valdéne gets pulled into some eye-opening adventures: to a masterpiece of controlled burning performed by a Vietnam veteran in a helicopter with three hundred gallons of napalm, and to his own experiences building a dam to fill his pond.  For a Handful of Feathers reconciles a passion for hunting with a deep sentiment for the wild. With sensitivity and patience, de la Valdéne searches for his, and our, place in the natural world.   “A classic that compares well with Turgenev’s A Sportsman’s Notebook.” —The Bloomsbury Review   “An American classic . . . A book as unapologetic as it is thoughtful about blood sport . . . [It] has the verbal spark and pace of a fine novel.” —Gray’s Sporting Journal   “A gem that will appeal not only to hunters but to all readers who love the land.” —Publishers Weekly   “Valuable for its insight into quail behavior and its thoughtful address of hunting ethics.” —Kirkus Reviews

  A riveting look behind the mask of an NHL goalie, The Save of My Life offers understanding and hope to anyone living with mental illness 
  By the time he was twenty-two years old, goaltender Corey Hirsch had realized his childhood dream of playing in the NHL, won an Olympic medal and drunk from the Stanley Cup. While he excelled on the ice, out of the net Hirsch was plagued by persistent dark thoughts and ceaseless anxiety. On days when he could barely get out of bed, he was able to push aside the endless loop of dark thoughts running inside his brain long enough to win a game. But as soon as he got back home, the agonizing cycle started all over again. And it continued, until finally he was able to confide in a team trainer who helped him get the professional treatment he needed. Diagnosed with obsessive-compulsive disorder, Hirsch was able to embark on the rocky road to recovery. As one of the first professional athletes to talk openly about mental health, Hirsch wrote about his OCD for the Players’ Tribune. His piece remains one of their most-read articles ever. 
  As Hirsch says, “I am not insane. I am not a bad person. I am not weak. I have an illness, and there is a treatment.”

  A money expert uses his passion for college basketball to teach the ins and outs of personal finance in a more approachable fashion. 
   
  What can legendary UCLA coach John Wooden teach us about personal financial planning? How do Georgetown’s shot-blocking big men relate to investing strategy? And what does Christian Laettner’s famous last-second shot have to do with leaving a financial legacy for your family? In Bulls, Bears, & Basketball, financial planning veteran Chuck Thoele makes the case that average investors can learn a lot from their hardwood heroes. If you think sports stories are more exciting than financial rhetoric, this book is for you. Forget dry and technical lectures about financial planning. Thoele translates must-know financial concepts into basketball language that’s enlightening and fun to read. Assess your own team, scout the competition, perfect your offense, get tough on defense, and always keep an eye on the clock. Guiding readers through the colorful history of NCAA basketball, Thoele draws parallels between some of the game’s most dramatic moments and the principles of building financial security. He tells of unstoppable teams, coaching geniuses, and glorious victories and relates them to essential lessons about investing, insurance, retirement, estate planning, and more.
