Retiring from Michigan to remote Darby, Montana, Phillips serves up stories of life at Double J Cat Ranch, the mountaintop home he shares with wife Julie, as he introduces you to the town's quirky inhabitants and his encounters with Nature.

Former Car and Driver editor John Phillips draws readers to his newfound retirement cabin, with his "back yard" extending 22 miles into Montana's uninhabited Bitterroot Forest. He faces a jagged first-year transition, often involuntarily housebound, as he studies the valley's history via Lewis & Clark's diaries. He interviews eccentrics in his no-stoplight village: the contentious marshal, the blacksmith, the Orvis guide who witnessed a tourist's car torn in half, the overworked search-and-rescue team, and an ex-smuggler hippie. Phillips chronicles the violent demise of his "tame" deer Ronda, eaten by a seven-foot-long cougar, even as he scuffles to absorb whatever psychological equilibrium the forest primeval might offer. Funny fiascos predominate in this "how to" guide to running away from it all-which first means surviving the intractable dominatrix that is Mother Nature's Montana.John Phillips has written for magazines for forty-five years and is the former executive editor of Car and Driver. Phillips has contributed to Harper's, the Toronto Globe & Mail, Elle, The Cleveland Plain Dealer, Cond Nast Traveler, Smithsonian Air & Space, and Sports Illustrated. He was the recipient of the Ken Purdy Award for journalism in 2007; enjoyed a one-on-one interview with Joe Biden; and is the author of the novel Slippery as well as the true-crime saga God Wants You to Roll.

The 18th century was a wealth of knowledge, exploration and rapidly growing technology and expanding record-keeping made possible by advances in the printing press. In its determination to preserve the century of revolution, Gale initiated a revolution of its own: digitization of epic proportions to preserve these invaluable works in the largest archive of its kind. Now for the first time these high-quality digital copies of original 18th century manuscripts are available in print, making them highly accessible to libraries, undergraduate students, and independent scholars.The Age of Enlightenment profoundly enriched religious and philosophical understanding and continues to influence present-day thinking. Works collected here include masterpieces by David Hume, Immanuel Kant, and Jean-Jacques Rousseau, as well as religious sermons and moral debates on the issues of the day, such as the slave trade. The Age of Reason saw conflict between Protestantism and Catholicism transformed into one between faith and logic -- a debate that continues in the twenty-first century.++++The below data was compiled from various identification fields in the bibliographic record of this title.

Fear and resentment of Polish immigrant workers may have led many Britons to vote for Brexit. But the exiled Poles who fought the Nazis were welcomed to the UK in the 1940s. Journalist and historian John Phillips tells how his father, Ireneusz Filipowicz, fought in the Polish Resistance as a teenager and became the first recorded Cold War defector from Poland in a daring escape from the Russian secret police before arriving in Britain. Ireneusz married a beautiful English girl, had a meteoric business career and created a loving, hospitable Wimbledon home for their children. Yet some exiles such as hard-drinking uncle Jan failed to integrate into Britain, which Jan believed 'betrayed' Poland in 1939. In a memoir of his family odyssey and his quest to exorcise its demons as a foreign correspondent covering wars from Lebanon to Bosnia, Phillips unravels the complex love-hate relationship between the Poles and the British in the hope that love may prevail. "Fantastic, gripping and deeply human..." Jacek Palasinski, TVN

"Phillips would have us look no further than the poem itself for the primary matter of its own accordant recognition as fact. So that to write is to read ourselves into being alive in forms we have no further proof of than the act of the poem's own declaration." --Patrick James Dunagan "Many speak to me in that place that is beyond speech; that transcends the tyranny of words, which is the taste of true poetry. Some carry that resonance that results from the retrieval, retrospectively, of a moment of precognitive awareness of an object or event which perceives it revealed unadorned, prior to the arising of the conditioning, serial moments of conceptual, dualistic thought. Poems where the ego-self of the poet is absent. Those moments of true 'poetry' before what we call poetry." --Malcolm Ritchie

Placing Robbe-Grillet’s filmic oeuvre in the related contexts of both his novelistic work and the different historical and cultural periods in which his films were made, from the early 1960s to the present, the book traces lines of influence and continuity throughout his work, which is shown to exhibit a consistent preoccupation with an identifiable body of themes, motifs and structures. Close readings of all the films are skilfully combined with a thematic approach, ranging across the entire filmic corpus. The book also contains chapters on cinematography and technique. Now available in paperback, this lucid, comprehensive and fascinating study shows Robbe-Grillet’s contribution to the evolution of the cinematic art both in France and internationally to have been considerably more important than previously acknowledged.

When the oppressive ruler of Cuba stepped down in 2018, the Cuban people led by Javier Hernandez started a revolution to prevent another oppressive ruler from taking power. Javier's beloved wife Vanessa Hernandez was publicly assassinated by an unidentified sniper while peacefully protesting in December 2018. Her death led to worldwide outrage and ultimately the United States backing the revolution. With the help of the United States military, the rebels were able to overthrow the oppressive government on June 26, 2019. The Cuban people were led to believe that the United States military would only occupy Cuba for a one year reconstruction period in order to maintain peace while a new democratic government was created. Several years have now passed, and the United States military presence has increased to the point of militant rule. It now appears that Cuba traded one oppressive ruler for another, and the Cuban people are growing restless for the freedom they believe they deserve.
