Violent But True Bedtime Stories: Maj. Pierre J. Ortiz, USMC is an action-packed graphic novel that tells the extraordinary life story of one of America's most fearless WWII heroes. Pierre Ortiz was a man who lived life on his own terms-fluent in ten languages, equally comfortable in glamorous European caf s or gritty battlefields.

From sabotaging German supply lines to orchestrating a remarkable escape from a POW camp, his legend only grew with every daring move. Even Hollywood called for Ortiz, but the blitzkrieg of war brought him back to the frontlines where he belonged. With vivid, dynamic illustrations that bring every page to life, this volume immerses readers in a high-stakes world of espionage, heroism, and war.Ortiz's unmatched courage earned him two Navy Crosses, a Legion of Merit, multiple Croix de Guerre, and Purple Hearts-solidifying his legacy as an American icon. This book is perfect for fans of military history, graphic novels, and larger-than-life war stories. Violent But True Bedtime Stories celebrates Ortiz as a symbol of grit, mischief, and heroism, inspiring generations with his devil-may-care attitude and fearless leadership.

Environmental rhetorics have expanded awareness of mass extinction, climate change, and pervasive pollution, yet failed to generate collective action that adequately addresses such pressing matters. This book contends that the anemic response to ecological upheaval is due, in part, to an inability to navigate novel forms of environmental guilt. Combining affect theory with rhetorical analysis to examine a range of texts and media, Ecologies of Guilt in Environmental Rhetorics positions guilt as a keystone emotion for contemporary environmental communication, and explores how it is provoked, perpetuated, and framed through everyday discourse. In revealing the need for emotional literacies that productively engage our complicity in global ecological harm, the book looks to a future where guilt—and its symbiotic relationships with anger, shame, and grief—is shaped in tune with the ecologies that sustain us.
