UNBROKEN is a World War II story of Survival, Resilience and Redemption. 

In boyhood, Louis Zamperini was an incorrigible delinquent. As a teenager, he channeled his defiance into running, discovering a prodigious talent that had carried him to the Berlin Olympics. But when World War II began, the athlete became an airman, embarking on a journey that led to a doomed flight on a May afternoon in 1943. When his Army Air Forces bomber crashed into the Pacific Ocean, against all odds, Zamperini survived, adrift on a foundering life raft. Ahead of Zamperini lay thousands of miles of open ocean, leaping sharks, thirst and starvation, enemy aircraft, and, beyond, a trial even greater. Driven to the limits of endurance, Zamperini would answer desperation with ingenuity; suffering with hope, resolve, and humâš brutality with rebellion. His fate, whether triumph or tragedy, would be suspended on the fraying wire of his will.

The Power of Habit by Charles Duhigg

With a Little Help from Irving, Cole, and a Crew of About Fifty.
A history of the Golden Age of American popular music.

From Irving Berlin to Cy Coleman, from "Alexander's Ragtime Band" to "Big Spender," from Tin Pan Alley to the MGM soundstages, the Golden Age of the American song embodied all that was cool, sexy, and sophisticated in popular culture. For four glittering decades, geniuses like Jerome Kern, George Gershwin, Cole Porter, and Harold Arlen ran their fingers over piano keys, enticing unforgettable melodies out of thin air. Critically acclaimed writer Wilfrid Sheed uncovered the legends, mingled with the greats, and gossiped with the insiders . Now he's crafted a dazzling, authoritative history of the era that "tripled the world's total supply of singable tunes.

Very good condition.

Spindletop: The True Story of the Oil Discovery That Changed the World by James A. Clark, 1st edition, 1952. Random House. SIGNED by both authors. Very good condition, NO defects, marks, writing, underlining, or highlighting.

January 10, 1901 - a momentous day in history. At 10:30 in the morning the first great American gusher "roared in like a shot from a heavy cannon and spouted oil a hundred feet over the top of the derrick out on the hummock that the world would soon know as Spindletop." Overnight the town of Beaumont, Texas became a bedlam. The population doubled and doubled again."

"Spindletop is the true story of the oil discovery that changed the world - of the events leading up to it and the boom days that followed. It is a tale of men against odds, and the incidents that molded men and ideas together to form the nucleus of the modern oil industry. The story is brought vividly alive by its colorful portraits of the men who played a part in this great adventure."

Mindful Politics by Kevin McLeod . Excellent condition.

This is not your typical political book. It's not written at a fever pitch, it doesn't use a good/bad binary, and it doesn't tout partisan policies. Instead, this timely collection addresses the less-discussed but more important questions about politics: What insight does religion have to offer politics? How can we as concerned citizens move beyond the particulars of legislation and party affiliation, and take direct action? How, amid divisive and challenging times, can personal growth and effective advocacy take place together? 

In short, Mindful Politics offers the perspectives of 34 important authors and thinkers on how each of us, right now, can make the world a better place. 

McLeod includes essays and insights from some of the brightest, and most controversial, lights of Buddhism - and beyond
