The landmark exposé of the most powerful and secretive vice president in American history Barton Gellman shared the Pulitzer Prize in 2008 for a keen-edged reckoning with Dick Cheney's domestic agenda in The Washington Post. In Angler, Gellman goes far beyond that series to take on the full scope of Cheney's work and its consequences, including his hidden role in the Bush administration's most fateful choices in war: shifting focus from al Qaeda to Iraq, unleashing the National Security Agency to spy at home, and promoting cruel and inhumane methods of interrogation. Packed with fresh insights and untold stories, Gellman parts the curtains of secrecy to show how the vice president operated and what he wrought. An inspiration for the film Vice, starring Christian Bale, Amy Adams, and Steve Carrell.

The Common Angler taps into the passion that simmers in the souls of anglers and celebrates the primordial connection of people to fish and fishing. Author Jack Wollitz set out to explain the “why” behind the fact that so many people are passionate about fishing and along the way discovered a book's worth of experiences and stories. Early chapters cover the foundation of Jack's own passion for fishing and explore the connection we have with water and the creatures that depend on it for life. The Common Angler explores fishing friendships, relationships, and observations; extraordinary experiences; and the value of personal time on the water. Also included is a whimsical piece that personifies two common waterside fixtures. A key chapter draws parallels between the legendary River Lea in Izaak Walton's The Compleat Angler, written in the mid-seventeenth century, and Northeast Ohio's Mahoning River and the mighty Ohio River. The Common Angler also provides an insider's perspective about what makes certain people great anglers, featuring two Northeast Ohio men known for their fishing accomplishments, as well as Ernest Hemingway, baseball stars Ted Williams and Wade Boggs, and Rick Clunn, considered the greatest bass angler of all time. The book advances with chapters that explore the development and popularity of competitive fishing, the therapeutic value of fishing when times are difficult, and even the pain and suffering dedicated anglers sometimes endure. The Common Angler concludes with an examination of the obligations anglers shoulder and how we can grow with our passion. “Next time you go to the water, open your eyes wider than ever before. Listen like your ears are amplifiers. Breathe with a purpose, deep and slow, so every molecule of nature checks in with your brain. Feel the sun. Touch the water. Ask yourself why you are there and what you intend to accomplish. Do this and you will be fishing. Do it every time and you will open a new chapter in your life as an angler.”

James Prosek has been called "the Audubon of the fishing world" by the New York Times. A passionate fisherman and talented artist from a young age, he published two illustrated books on fish and fishing while still an undergraduate at Yale. After winning a traveling fellowship to follow in the footsteps of Izaak Walton, The Compleat Angler became his obsession. He was fascinated by Walton, a humble man who won the friendship of kings, and he was intrigued by the book's philosophies concerning the timelessness and immortality that could be achieved by fishing. Although Walton was sixty when The Compleat Angler was published and Prosek only twenty when he set off to visit England, they each had traits in common: a love of fishing and an extraordinary ability to make friends. This is the story of a young man's pilgrimage through England, fishing the waters that are now privately held. Along with wonderful stories about good times, great fishing, and fine eating, this trip becomes an exploration of Waltonian ideals: how to live with humor, wisdom, contentment, and simplicity. The original watercolors complementing the text are wonderful. Like Walton's book, The Complete Angler is not about fishing but about life. Or rather, it is about fishing—but fishing is life.
