Presidential Elections

Strategies and Structures of American Politics

By: Nelson W. Polsby,Aaron Wildavsky,Steven E. Schier,David A. Hopkins

Polsby and Wildavsky’s classic text, now updated by Stephen Schier and David Hopkins, argues that the institutional rules of the presidential nomination and election processes, in combination with the behavior of the mass electorate, structure the strategic choices faced by politicians in powerful and foreseeable ways. We can make sense of the decisions made by different political actors—incumbents, challengers, Democrats, Republicans, consultants, party officials, activists, delegates, journalists, and voters—by understanding the ways in which their world is organized by incentives, regulations, events, resources, customs, and opportunities. Thoroughly revised and updated, this Sixteenth Edition provides everything students need to know about presidential elections going into the 2024 cycle.

Steal Away Home

Charles Spurgeon and Thomas Johnson, Unlikely Friends on the Passage to Freedom?

By: Matt Carter,Aaron Ivey

Thomas Johnson and Charles Spurgeon lived worlds apart. Johnson, an American slave, born into captivity and longing for freedom--- Spurgeon, an Englishman born into relative ease and comfort, but, longing too for a freedom of his own. Their respective journeys led to an unlikely meeting and an even more unlikely friendship, forged by fate and mutual love for the mission of Christ. Steal Away Home is a new kind of book based on historical research, which tells a previously untold story set in the 1800s of the relationship between an African-American missionary and one of the greatest preachers to ever live.

Empire of Dogs

Empire of Dogs

Canines, Japan, and the Making of the Modern Imperial World

By: Aaron Skabelund

In 1924, Professor Ueno Eizaburo of Tokyo Imperial University adopted an Akita puppy he named Hachiko. Each evening Hachiko greeted Ueno on his return to Shibuya Station. In May 1925 Ueno died while giving a lecture. Every day for over nine years the Akita waited at Shibuya Station, eventually becoming nationally and even internationally famous for his purported loyalty. A year before his death in 1935, the city of Tokyo erected a statue of Hachiko outside the station. The story of Hachiko reveals much about the place of dogs in Japan's cultural imagination. In the groundbreaking Empire of Dogs, Aaron Herald Skabelund examines the history and cultural significance of dogs in nineteenth- and twentieth-century Japan, beginning with the arrival of Western dog breeds and new modes of dog keeping, which spread throughout the world with Western imperialism. He highlights how dogs joined with humans to create the modern imperial world and how, in turn, imperialism shaped dogs' bodies and their relationship with humans through its impact on dog-breeding and dog-keeping practices that pervade much of the world today. In a book that is both enlightening and entertaining, Skabelund focuses on actual and metaphorical dogs in a variety of contexts: the rhetorical pairing of the Western "colonial dog" with native canines; subsequent campaigns against indigenous canines in the imperial realm; the creation, maintenance, and in some cases restoration of Japanese dog breeds, including the Shiba Inu; the mobilization of military dogs, both real and fictional; and the emergence of Japan as a "pet superpower" in the second half of the twentieth century. Through this provocative account, Skabelund demonstrates how animals generally and canines specifically have contributed to the creation of our shared history, and how certain dogs have subtly influenced how that history is told. Generously illustrated with both color and black-and-white images, Empire of Dogs shows that human-canine relations often expose how people—especially those with power and wealth—use animals to define, regulate, and enforce political and social boundaries between themselves and other humans, especially in imperial contexts.

The Only Ones

By: Aaron Starmer

Call it coincidence, call it fate. This is the place you come. There's no one else. This is the entire world." These words welcome Martin Maple to the village of Xibalba. Like the other children who've journeyed there, he faces an awful truth. He was forgotten. When families and friends all disappeared one afternoon, these were the only ones left behind. There's Darla, who drives a monster truck, Felix, who uses string and wood to rebuild the Internet, Lane, who crafts elaborate contraptions, and nearly 40 others, each equally brilliant and peculiar. Inspired by the prophesies of a mysterious boy who talks to animals, Martin believes he can reunite them with their loved ones. But believing and knowing are two different things, as he soon discovers with the push of a button, flip of a switch, turn of a dial. . . .

Juggling the Truth

Juggling the Truth

By: Elizabeth Aaron

Laurali Nixon is a cool, gifted, highly respected teacher who is assigned to tutor a student who is equally gifted - and geeky and disturbed. She decides to take matters into her own hands, only to become an unwilling player in a re-activated crime investigation. Visceral yet fun-loving, sordid yet spiritual and poetic, and always authentic, this novel deeply probes the professional and personal levels of this complex teacher-student relationship. Based on real events, well-researched, it would make a wonderful movie.

A Right to Be Hostile

The Boondocks Treasury

By: Aaron McGruder

Here’s the first big book of The Boondocks, more than four years and 800 strips of one of the most influential, controversial, and scathingly funny comics ever to run in a daily newspaper. “With bodacious wit, in just a few panels, each day Aaron serves up—and sends up—life in America through the eyes of two African-American kids who are full of attitude, intelligence, and rebellion. Each time I read the strip, I laugh—and I wonder how long The Boondocks can get away with the things it says. And how on earth can the most truthful thing in the newspaper be the comics?” —From the foreword by Michael Moore

A Threat of the First Magnitude

FBI Counterintelligence & Infiltration From the Communist Party to the Revolutionary Union 1962-1974

By: Aaron J Leonard,Conor A Gallagher

Discover the inner workings of FBI counterintelligence in this untold story of the FBI informants who infiltrated the Communist Party, the Black Panther Party, and other threats to US security. A Threat of the First Magnitude tells the story of the FBI’s fake Maoist organization and the informants they used to penetrate the highest levels of the Communist Party USA, the Black Panther Party, the Revolutionary Union and other groups labelled threats to the internal security of the United States in the 1960s and 1970s. As once again the FBI is thrust into the spotlight of US politics, A Threat of a First Magnitude offers a view of the historic inner-workings of the Bureau’s counterintelligence operations—from generating “fake news” and the utilization of “sensitive intelligence methods” to the handling of “reliable sources”—that matches or exceeds the sophistication of any contenders.

Letters from Space

The Memoirs of a Mad Scientist

By: Aaron Smoly

This collection of letters by the renowned mad scientist "Dirk Stenowitze" has been in the works by author and cult hero Aaron Smoly (of Four Spacemen on a Mule fame) since 1999. Dirk's adventures take us from his home in Mexico to Venus, Bulgaria, Madagascar, and beyond. In a friendly irreverent manner, the letters cover a range of sensitive subjects, such as Schrdinger's Cat, homosexuality, talking donkeys, Nazis, and the end of the world. Nothing is safe, and even less is sacred as Stenowitze creates new worlds and new sciences to impress his lifelong nemesis Jimmey Johnson. There is something to offend everyone in this controversial amalgamation of madness and genius. If this book doesn't make you laugh, then you aren't a Homo sapiens.
