Book excerpt: “If a judgment were ever rendered on all the multi-million words I have spoken into microphones, I hope something like this could be said: ‘He [Huntley] had a great respect, almost an awe, of the medium in which he worked. He regarded it as a privilege, not a license.... Perhaps the best I might hope is that by some accident of voice tone or arrangement of words I did, on a few occasions, excite, exhort, annoy or provoke a few of my fellow human beings to think with their heads, not the viscera’”—Chet Huntley. This biography of NBC newsman Chet Huntley, who, along with David Brinkley, anchored NBC’s “Huntley-Brinkley Report,” covers his youth on a farm in Montana, his education and his graduation from the University of Washington, his development as a radio personality and news reporter for stations in Seattle, Spokane, Portland, and his work for CBS, ABC and NBC radio and television in Los Angeles from 1939 to 1955. It also details his move to New York and his work on the “Huntley-Brinkley Report” from 1956 to 1970, his retirement from the news business, his supervision of the development of the Big Sky Ski resort in Montana, and his death from cancer in 1974 at the age of 62.

Book excerpt: This first major biography of the most romanticized icon in jazz thrillingly recounts his wild ride. From his emergence in the 1950s--when an uncannily beautiful young man from Oklahoma appeard on the West Coast to become, seemingly overnight, the prince of "cool" jazz--until his violent, drug-related death in Amsterdam in 1988, Chet Baker lived a life that has become an American myth. Here, drawing on hundreds of interviews and previously untapped sources, James Gavin gives a hair-raising account of the trumpeter's dark journey.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Letters to Fritz By: Judy Constant Tyler In Letters to Fritz, Judy Constant Tyler has given us a story of love, loss, and more love as she shares letters written over a span of 20 years to her beloved cat, Fritz. Devastated by Fritz’s death, Judy sought to heal her grief by telling his story through her letters – and ended up writing a charming, funny, and heartbreaking memoir every cat lover will recognize and anyone who has ever loved a pet will relate to. Along the way we meet Fritz’s successors, Rascal, Tinker, Belle, and Amelia Belle, and meet Carl, Judy’s husband, soul mate, and love of her life. Judy has a wonderful way of describing the antics of her much-loved kitties, and the honest and heartfelt stories of her relationship with Carl bring warmth and depth to her story. Loss is a big part of her book, but so is her gratitude for a life filled with love. This is a book written from the heart of a woman known for her acts of kindness and generosity. Who knew she was also a lovely writer? I’m grateful she shared this book with me. Enjoy! -Meg Smith
