"The Franklin that emerges here . . . is more dynamic and real than his homespun alias Poor Richard ever could be."&#160;&mdash;Sam Kean,&#160;Wall Street Journal"Anyone interested in Franklin and early America should find this book fascinating. It offers important insight into the internal struggles Franklin wrestled with as a youth and the questions he strove to answer. Ultimately, though, it is as much about the emergence of the concept of ingenuity in the pre-revolutionary age and among Franklin&rsquo;s intellectual and scientific mentors and friends as it is about Franklin&rsquo;s own path to ingenuity."&#160;&mdash;Linda Killian, The Washington Post"To pass yourself off as a self-made man is to head off questions about your origins. &#160;Nick Bunker is wise enough not to take Franklin at his word and resourceful enough to have unearthed his family&rsquo;s past. &#160;The result is a robust, graceful half-life, a portrait of the young Franklin that casts fresh light on his energy, his boundless curiosity, his passion for the new&mdash;and the self-made."&mdash;Stacy Schiff, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of Cleopatra: A Life and The Witches: Salem, 1692"Make room on the top shelf of all Franklin biographies. Bunker here provides a stunning reappraisal of America&rsquo;s most self-created genius, loaded with Franklinesque wisdom on every page, carried forward on the wings of words that simply sing."&mdash;Joseph Ellis, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of The Quartet: Orchestrating the Second American Revolution, 1783-1789&#160;and&#160;Founding Brothers: The Revolutionary Generation"It is nearly impossible to say anything new about Benjamin Franklin,  but Nick Bunker has done it brilliantly with this study of the young  Franklin. An extraordinary achievement."&mdash;Gordon S. Wood, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of&#160;Friends Divided: John Adams and Thomas Jefferson&#160;and Alva O. Way University Professor, Brown University"No Founding Father worked harder than Benjamin Franklin to establish a reputation as that most American (and enigmatic) of types:&#160; the self-made man. But as Nick Bunker brilliantly demonstrates in this fascinating new biography of the scientist as a conflicted young man, Franklin&rsquo;s past&mdash;in particular his family&rsquo;s past in England&mdash;followed him every step of the way."&mdash;Nathaniel Philbrick, author of In the Heart of the Sea and Valiant Ambition"Shockingly original, thoroughly researched, and strikingly well written, Young Benjamin Franklin has something for everyone. It's the best book on Franklin in more than a decade. Nick Bunker has once again made the familiar strange and wondrous."&mdash;David Waldstreicher, Distinguished Professor of History at The Graduate Center, City University of New York, and author of Runaway America: Benjamin Franklin, Slavery and the American Revolution"[A] vibrant, perspicacious, and well-researched portrait of a man  hungry for knowledge and ambitious for financial success. . . . Bunker  adroitly describes Franklin's involvement in the religious and political  controversies of the day, including slavery, as well as in the  scientific projects for which he became renowned. An engaging,  illuminating biography of a captivating figure."&mdash;Kirkus (Starred Review)"Bunker re-creates a life of restless ambition as he recounts how Benjamin Franklin finds in Philadelphia the opportunity he has been seeking for deploying the printing expertise and rhetorical skills he acquired while coming-of-age in Boston. . . . [A]&#160;nuanced portrait of the young Franklin captures the fugitive genius of a quintessential American."&mdash;Booklist&#160;(Starred Review)"Nick Bunker again provides an unusual look at American history with this accessible and riveting account of the ancestry and early life of Ben Franklin. Bunker&rsquo;s diligent research and reconstruction of events from myriad sources were necessitated by Franklin&rsquo;s own misleading writings. . . .The result is a deep, nuanced examination of the formative influences on an iconic American figure."&mdash;Publishers Weekly (Starred Review)

"If you are a recent lover of drag, and have really only been exposed through&#160;Drag Race, then Frank DeCaro&rsquo;s new book,&#160;Drag: Combing Through the Big Wigs of Show Business, is for you. The new book is here to teach the children about the history of drag, shining a spotlight on those who sashayed in heels long before the queens of&#160;Drag Race." &mdash;LOGO TV/Next New Now"DeCaro&rsquo;s new primer, out now on Rizzoli Books, includes profiles of dozens of drag queens&mdash;pop-culture fixtures like RuPaul, Harvey Fierstein and Divine, but also acclaimed contemporary performers like Hedda Lettuce, Dina Martina and Murray Hill, one of the only drag kings to break big." &mdash;NEWSWEEK.COM

&#9733;&#160;"Hooper&rsquo;s evocative mixed-media illustrations capture the period in stunning detail. Featuring a strong black line, they bring figures into the foreground in scenes awash in pink, blue, green, or gold. . . . Don&rsquo;t miss this moving, brilliantly illustrated picture book portrait of brothers in art."&mdash;School Library Journal, Starred Review &#9733;&#160;"Multiaward-winning team Greenberg and Jordan are best known for their astonishing ability to decode and explore sophisticated artists and movements . . . Hooper's low-key, child-friendly details keep readers turning the pages. . . . An extraordinary achievement and a moving, affecting evocation of two lives lived together."&mdash;Kirkus Reviews, Starred Review &#9733;&#160;"Hooper&rsquo;s loosely drawn and colored illustrations are a fine  accompaniment to the less structured forms of both Giacomettis.  Observant readers will notice how the shadow of the brothers arm-in-arm  pays tribute to Alberto&rsquo;s style. Concluding thumbnails of the brothers&rsquo;  art, an analysis of Alberto&rsquo;s Walking Man, and other important back  matter add further insight. A moving introduction to this creative and  symbiotic pair."&mdash;Booklist, Starred Review&#9733;&#160;"Illustrations by Hooper (Mabel and Sam at Home)  exude warmth in expressive black contours, and large planes of colored  wash&mdash;the blue of Paris at night, the red of war&mdash;provide the spreads with  moody overtones. Diego and his devotion to his brother emerge as the  story&rsquo;s most appealing elements in this fascinating retrospective."&mdash;Publishers Weekly, Starred Review&#9733;&#160;"Hooper&rsquo;s art, in paint and ink and finished digitally, is cohesive yet strikingly dynamic; see the final vignette of the two brothers together casting long, skeletal shadows recalling Alberto&rsquo;s famous style. Back matter respectfully guides readers through looking at Walking Man II; photos, source notes, a timeline, and a bibliography are included."&mdash;The Horn Book Magazine, Starred Review  "Short sentences impel the narrative forward with poetic pulse and economy, and the careful balance of the Giacomettis&rsquo; art and domestic worlds extends the title&rsquo;s interest. The vibrant colors of Hooper&rsquo;s mixed-media illustrations are, though appealing, nearly extraneous in light of the commanding black line work that harmonizes with Alberto&rsquo;s and Diego&rsquo;s slender metal creations." &mdash;The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books

It highlights the farms and wineries doing it right &mdash; being responsible stewards of the land." &mdash;FOOD GAL&#160;"The book looks at California, region by region, with portraits of family-owned wineries, as well as the farmers who grow cherries, prunes, asparagus, figs, peaches, and olives.

Advance praise for Troy: Lord of the Silver Bow&#8220;This is how the oldest tales should be read and known. This is the grand style of storytelling. Gemmell is a master of plot, but his triumph is creating men and women so real that their trials are agony and their triumph is glorious.&#8221;&#8211;Conn Iggulden, author of the Emperor series &#8220;I can say of David Gemmell, that he's the only writer of historical fiction or heroic fantasy whose prose I actually study, line by line, trying to decode how he produces the effects that he does. Hail to Lord of the Silver Bow! Bravo, Mr. Gemmell!&#8221;&#8211;Steven Pressfield, author of Gates of Fire and The Virtues of WarPraise for David Gemmell&#8220;I love David Gemmell&#8217;s work. He&#8217;s one of the best out there today, and one of the reasons that fantasy is alive and well.&#8221;&#8211;R. A. Salvatore &#8220;Passionate, cleanly written prose, imaginative plots, and, above all, terrific storytelling.&#8221;&#8211;Time Out London&#8220;Gemmell not only knows how to tell a story, he knows how to tell a story you want to hear. He does high adventure as it ought to be done.&#8221;&#8211;Greg Keyes&#8220;Clean, swift action and a rich undercurrent of human understanding support Gemmell&#8217;s characters at each turn of the tale.&#8221;&#8211;Kirkus Reviews

Pun lovers, foodies, and puzzlers of all ages will be charmed by Ehlert&#39;s love poem, which is packaged in a gift-ready, small-format trim size and constructed around playful rebus-style images of food items and other objects. "I&#39;m [cherry] when I c u," begins one line, "[olive] u, n it shows,/ My [heart] starts [pumpkin]/ from my head down [tomatoes]." The contrast between the electric blues, pinks, greens, and other vivid colors Ehlert uses for her cut-paper artwork makes her spreads seem to vibrate with excited energy, and the various rebus items are labeled for those still learning words such as lime, plum, and lettuce. While there is the occasional groaner tucked in here and there ("We could [celery]brate"), only the surliest readers won&#39;t crack a smile as they turn the pages. Irresistible. Up to age 8.

"Just because you&rsquo;re ready for spring doesn&rsquo;t mean winter is about to relinquish her season. This is why Margot Shaw&rsquo;s new book,&#160;Living Floral,&#160;Entertaining and Decorating with&#160;Flowers,&#160;is the ideal salve for those who crave the nuances of nurturing weather. Create your own uplifting environment with flowers. And what better way than to cull ideas from tables and settings of such tastemakers as Charlotte Moss, Cornelia Guest, Susanne Rheinstein and event&#160;designer&#160;Tara&#160;Gu&eacute;rard among others." &mdash; DUCKS GOOSE"Having had a sneak peek at the book, we can say this perfectly summarizes page after lush page that illustrates how some of the industry&rsquo;s most popular and respected designers and tastemakers&#160;entertain." &mdash;CURREY & CO"...a gorgeous and comprehensive new coffee-table book filled with inspiring ways to add blooming-fabulous touches to our homes and parties." &mdash;THE SALONNIERE&#160;"Every design library needs at least a few books that spark happiness, and Margot Shaw's debut book, Living Floral (Rizzoli New York), is one that did just that for me.&#160; As the founder and editor in chief of Flower magazine, Margot has dedicated her publication to celebrating beauty in many forms: interiors, gardens, entertaining, and, of course, flowers.&#160; It is a winning combination that has made the magazine a success and one that is the focus of her new book... The book contains really delightful images of interiors, table settings, outdoor entertaining, and more than a few lucky dogs.&#160; (As you can see below, I'm partial to those images featuring our four-legged friends.)&#160; But what you won't find in this book is condescension. The book's text never speaks down to readers, but rather thoughtfully encourages them to enjoy the beauty and perhaps adopt a few ideas and tips for themselves.&#160; If you're looking for some inspiration and how-tos on decorating, floral arranging, and entertaining, this is the book for you." &mdash;PEAK OF CHIC

"This is a story of power, sex and betrayal--but mostly of power." &#8211;The New York Times Book Review"A thoroughly researched piece of work. Ms. Kelley clearly devoured and digested the extant literature on the family." &#8211;The New York Times"Kelley's account of the rise and fall of the Bush family is both inspirational and cautionary. She convincingly shows that good looks, energy, athleticism, ambition, felicitous marriages and social networking can compensate for intellectual ordinariness." &#8211;The Washington Post Book World"The Family . . . has left few stones unturned. . . .

In this novel, she seamlessly weaves history, tradition and culture into a heartfelt story about love and forgiveness. It&rsquo;s an unforgettable read." &mdash;Toronto Star  "I fell in love with the writing of bestselling and award-winning author Lisa See more than 10 years ago ...&nbsp;This novel introduces readers to the unforgettable female divers of Jeju Island and the dramatic history that shaped their lives." &mdash;Winston-Salem Journal  "The most intriguing parts of the book are those that describe the lives of the&nbsp;haenyeo ...&nbsp;See reveals how perilous the work can be: One diver is almost killed by an octopus, and another drowns because of an abalone.&nbsp;Yet the women love the sense of freedom, competence and strength they find in the water." &mdash;Tampa Bay Times  "Fascinating ... Readers will witness the fortitude of these women to transcend tragedy and find forgiveness." &mdash;Christian Science Monitor,&nbsp;March&#39;s 10 Best Books to Enlighten and Entertain  "In this bittersweet novel that spans more than 50 years,&nbsp;Lisa See tells the story of&nbsp;Mi-ja and Young-sook, two&nbsp;best friends who live in a kind of feminist utopia on a Korean island." &mdash;Marie Claire  "For centuries on the Korean island of Jeju, Haenyeo women were trained to expand their lungs and go diving on the ocean floor to harvest seafood ...&nbsp;&nbsp;Mi-ja and Young-sook are best friends and Haenyeo divers, set to follow in their mothers&#39; footsteps. But as they come of age during a tumultuous period in Korea&#39;s history, certain deep-rooted differences may tear them apart." &mdash;Refinery29, Best Books of March 2019  "This beautiful story follows&nbsp;Mi-ja and Young-sook, friends from very different backgrounds who are&nbsp;members of an all-female diving group in Korea. Really, though, the book is about the endurance of friendship when it&#39;s pushed to its limits, and you (+ your BFF, when you lend it to her) will love it." &mdash;Cosmopolitan,&nbsp;15 Best Books of March 2019  &ldquo;Compelling&hellip;[a] story of two best friends who come from very different families, and whose bond will be tested time and time again over the years.&rdquo; &mdash;LitHub.com, Most Anticipated Books of 2019  &ldquo;A stupendous multigenerational family saga, See&rsquo;s latest also provides an enthralling cultural anthropology highlighting the soon-to-be-lost, matriarchal haenyeo phenomenon and an engrossing history of violently tumultuous twentieth-century Korea. A mesmerizing achievement. See&#39;s accomplishment, acclaim, and readership continue to rise with each book, and interest in this stellar novel will be well stoked.&rdquo; &mdash;Booklist, starred review  &ldquo;See perceptively depicts challenges faced by Koreans over the course of the 20th century, particularly homing in on the ways the haenyeo have struggled to maintain their way of life. Exposing the depths of human cruelty and resilience, See&rsquo;s lush tale is a wonderful ode to a truly singular group of women.&rdquo; &mdash;Publishers Weekly&nbsp;  &ldquo;On an island off the South Korean coast, an ancient guild of women divers reckons with the depredations of modernity from 1938 to 2008 in See&#39;s (The Tea Girl of Hummingbird Lane, 2017, etc.) latest novel&hellip;. See did extensive research with primary sources to detail not only the haenyeo traditions, but the mass murders on Jeju beginning in 1948, which were covered up for decades by the South Korean government&hellip; It is a necessary book.&rdquo;&nbsp; &mdash;Kirkus Reviews  &ldquo;Lisa See excels at mining the intersection of family, friendship and history, and in her newest novel, she reaches new depths exploring the matrifocal&nbsp;haenyeo&nbsp;society&nbsp;in Korea, caught between tradition and modernization. &nbsp;This novel spans wars and generations, but at its heart is a beautifully rendered story of two women whose individual choices become inextricably tangled.&rdquo; &mdash;Jodi Picoult,&nbsp;New York Times&nbsp;bestselling author of&nbsp;A Spark of Light&nbsp;and&nbsp;Small Great Things  "I was spellbound the moment I entered the vivid and little-known world of the diving women of Jeju. Set amid sweeping historical events, The Island of Sea Women is the extraordinary story of Young-sook and Mi-ja, of women&rsquo;s daring, heartbreak, strength, and forgiveness. No one writes about female friendship, the dark and the light of it, with more insight and depth than Lisa See." &mdash;Sue Monk Kidd, author of&nbsp;The Secret Life of Bees&nbsp;and&nbsp;The Invention of Wings&nbsp;  "I loved&nbsp;The Island of Sea Women&nbsp;from the very first page.&nbsp;Lisa See has created an enthralling, compelling portrait of a unique culture and a turbulent time in history, but what&#39;s really remarkable about this novel is the characters&mdash;two women whose lifelong friendship is tested during impossibly difficult times. Compelling, heart-wrenching, and beautifully written,&nbsp;The Island of Sea Women&nbsp;will plunge you into a world and a story you&#39;ve never read before and remind you how powerful women can and must be to survive." &mdash;Kristin Hannah, author of&nbsp;The Nightingale&nbsp;and&nbsp;The Great Alone

"The award-winning man of letters&mdash;who died on Tuesday, March 12&mdash;also happened to be a dab hand when it comes to interiors, as John Richardson: At Home (out March 26 from Rizzoli) bears eloquent witness." &mdash;ARCHITECTURAL DIGEST.COM"John Richardson flitted through the top echelons of art, fashion, and finance for 70 years. Just weeks after his death, a new book celebrates the places he called home." &mdash;BLOOMBERG NEWS&#160;"Sir John Richardson, the renowned Picasso biographer, moved to his lower Fifth Avenue loft back in 1995, and in the interim years its idiosyncratic interiors have been widely documented and discussed in glossy magazines and newspapers. Thus, last Fall when Rizzoli called to commission me to photograph a newly evolving space in his home, I didn&rsquo;t hesitate&mdash;the opportunity to capture images of such an enthusiastically personal environment is catnip for interiors photographers such as myself. This would all need to happen fast, the Rizzoli book&#160;John Richardson: At Home&#160;was already in the late stages of production for its March 2019 publication date." &mdash;Joshua McHugh for&#160;SOTHEBY'S MAGAZINE"Art historian, Picasso biographer, and bon vivant John Richardson invites readers into his homes.

John Richardson: At Home

"Fifty years after the Stonewall Riots, the works of many key artists who sparked the LGBT movement for equality remain relatively unknown. This book seeks to put those works and the artists who made them on center stage. With over 200 works from the last 20 years, this book tells the stories of artists such as Nan Goldin, Harmony Hammond, Lyle Ashton Harris, Greer Lankton, Glenn Ligon, Robert Mapplethorpe, Catherine Opie, as well as the ways in which artists such as Diane Arbus, Jean-Michel Basquiat, and Karen Finley engaged with the queer subcultures of their time." &mdash;NEW YORK MAGAZINE
