Book excerpt: From the author ofChasing Che, here is the remarkable tale of a group of boys at the heart of Cuba's political and social history. Chosen in the 1940s from among the most affluent and ambitious families in eastern Cuba, they were groomed at the elite Colegio de Dolores for achievement and leadership. Instead, they were swept into war, revolution, and exile by two of their own number, Fidel and Raúl Castro. Trained by Jesuits for dialectical dexterity and the pursuit of absolutes, Fidel Castro swiftly destroyed the old Cuba they had come from, down to the hallways of Dolores itself. At once sweeping and intimate, this remarkable history by Patrick Symmes is a tour de force investigation of the world that gave birth to Fidel Castro – and the world his Cuban Revolution leaves behind.

Book excerpt: “What the PCT is to Cheryl Strayed, the open road is to Brooks-Dalton.”—Cosmopolitan A powerful memoir about a young woman whose passion for motorcycles leads her down a road all her own. At twenty-one-years-old, Lily Brooks-Dalton is feeling lost; returning to New England after three and a half years traveling overseas, she finds herself unsettled, unattached, and without the drive to move forward. When a friend mentions buying a motorcycle, Brooks-Dalton is intrigued and inspired. Before long she is diving headlong into the world of gearheads, reconsidering her surroundings through the visor of a motorcycle helmet, and beginning a study of motion that will help her understand her own trajectory. Her love for these powerful machines starts as a diversion, but as she continues riding and maintaining her own motorcycles, she rediscovers herself, her history, and her momentum. Forced to confront her limitations—new and old, real and imagined—Brooks-Dalton learns focus, patience, and how to navigate life on the road. As she builds confidence, both on her bike and off, she begins to find her way, ultimately undertaking an ambitious ride that leaves her strengthened, revitalized, and prepared for whatever comes next. Honest and lyrical, raw and thoughtful, Motorcycles I’ve Loved is a bold portrait of one young woman’s empowering journey of independence and determination.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dave Richardson bought his first motorcycle at 14. He wasn't much of a racer but wanted motorcycles to be his life. After a few odd jobs, he became a partner in newly-forming Moto International, and in no time, was thrust into running it. "It's a motorcycle shop. How hard can it be?" How hard indeed? Dave thought the hard part would be attracting customers. He never dreamed of the unexpected challenges. In these pages, the author of Guzziology tells the surprising story of dealing with banks, motorcycle manufacturers and distributors, defense contractors, finance companies, the public, and the EPA. He tells of fixing problems ignored by manufacturers, advocating for improvements in bikes, and trying to get distributors to fix customer's bikes. His career in motorcycle shops spanned 34 years, representing at various times Aprilia, Cagiva, Ducati, Husqvarna, Hyosung, KTM, Laverda, MuZ, and Ural. But always, Moto Guzzi.

Book excerpt: Cuba has loomed large in American memory and history. Throughout the last half-century, the island and its larger-than-life revolutionary leader have been key players in the Cold War and mythologized by Americans and American politicians. In 2016, relations thawed, and the country opened its doors to American. The Rolling Stones played in Havana. President Obama arrived too in March. He was the first President to visit the nation almost 100 years—since Coolidge in 1928. And then Fidel Castro passed away in November 2016, marking the end of the momentous era in Cuban history. In The Day Fidel Died, Patrick Symmes interweaves reporting from years spent traveling to the Cuban Island, a narrative history of the rise of Fidelismo and the last sixty-plus years of life there under Fidel. Symmes’ exploration of the Castros’ Cuba—how it came to be and what it’s becoming—paints a wondrous and striking portrait of the nation, its culture, politics and people for anyone first undertaking a trip or those still dreaming of doing so. A Vintage Shorts ebook original.

Book excerpt: On the Trail of Robert Pirsig's Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance, Zen and Now is the story of a story that will appeal to the 5 million readers of the original and serve as an initiation to a whole new generation. Since its original publication in 1968, Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance: An Inquiry into Values has touched whole generations of readers with its serious attempt to define “quality” in a world that seems indifferent to the responsibilities that quality brings. Mark Richardson expands that journey with an investigation of his own – to find the enigmatic author of Zen and the Art, ask him a few questions, and place his classic book in context. The result manages to be a biography of Pirsig himself – in the discovery of an unknown life of madness, murder and eventual resolution – and a splendid meditation on creativity and problem-solving, sanity and insanity.

But always, Moto Guzzi.Recommendation:During the 1990's, I was in Mandello del Lario, Italy as part of the Moto Guzzi design team and Dave was in Seattle Washington trying to keep his Moto Guzzi shop solvent. Despite the distance, our paths crossed often. Dave was frequently invited to the Guzzi factory and became an advisor to the management. Dave is a great storyteller and this one is fascinating. It's about five decades of a life dedicated to motorcycles, starting as a kid drooling over the bikes in a motorcycle shop and ending as a savvy businessman using all his skills to keep his motorcycle shop alive. It's about a love for the sport bordering on obsession, about adversity and perseverance. If you have ever thought that the owner of your local bike shop selling those gorgeous, expensive Italian motorcycle might be stuffing money under his mattress then this tale could change your thinking. If you have ever wondered what it might be like to be a motorcycle shop owner then this book is for you too.Dr. John WittnerUS middleweight/open Endurance and Pro Twins Champion,Motorcycle engineer, and former Moto Guzzi technical consultant
