The 143-Storey Treehouse

Praise for The Steal&#8220;A gripping ground-level narrative of the weeks after&#10;Donald Trump lost the popular vote&#8230;The Steal&#10;is a marvel of reporting: tightly wound&#8230;but also panoramic &#8212; a kaleidoscope of&#10;stories about how officials and activists in pivotal states like Arizona and&#10;Georgia responded to Trump&#8217;s false claims of election fraud&#8230;The result is a&#10;narrative that mirrors the way elections are actually run in the United States:&#10;state by state, county by county, precinct by precinct.&#8221;&#8212;Washington Post&#8220;The&#10;unheralded and mostly unknown Republicans active in local politics who refused&#10;to go along with Trump&#8217;s lies&#8212;and played a key role in preserving American&#10;democracy&#8212;are the main subject of The Steal by the journalists Mark Bowden&#10;and Matthew Teague. At 230 pages of text, their book is a lean, fast-paced and&#10;important account of the chaotic final weeks of the Trump administration.&#8221;&#8212;New&#10;York Times&#8220;Mark&#10;Bowden and Matthew Teague have produced an indispensable and alarming&#10;ground-level record of how Donald Trump&#8217;s attempt to steal the 2020 election&#10;played out in precincts and ballot-counting centers in key states...In their&#10;terrific new book...the authors have used a stethoscope to examine the minutia&#10;of the American election process. The result is a thrilling and suspenseful&#10;celebration of the survival of democracy...Bowden and Teague have performed a&#10;singular service.&#8221;&#8212;The Guardian&#8220;The strength of The&#10;Steal, Mark Bowden and Matthew Teague&#8217;s meticulous micro-narrative&#10;published on the one-year anniversary of the attacks, is that it zooms in&#10;through the forest and down to the grassroots, where a deluded assortment of&#10;self-styled patriots sought to subvert democracy in the name of saving it, and&#10;a brave band of state and local officials&#8212;most of them Trump-supporting&#10;Republicans, in fact&#8212;actually did save it.&#8221;&#8212;Air Mail&#8220;The Steal is a terrifying picture of the civil war that began on Election Day 2020. Here is the rancor, distrust, and deception that spun into the conspiracies and rabbit holes that Donald Trump has used to undermine truth, logic, and common sense. This is the behind-the-scenes&#10;world of the Big Lie. The Steal&#160;reads like an edge-of-your-seat political thriller&#8212;one without a happy ending.&#8221; &#8212;Michael Wolff, New York Times bestselling author of Landslide&#8220;The Steal is brilliant, an incredibly important document reported without bile or self-righteousness. A book every conservative should read.&#8221;&#8212;P. J. O&#8217;Rourke, New York Times bestselling author of How the Hell Did This Happen&#160;&#8220;It&#8217;s impossible to think of a better combination of writing and reporting talent to cover an historic assault on democracy than Mark Bowden and Matt Teague. That combination has produced a book that must be read now and will be read for many years to come. I made the mistake of starting The Steal&#160;in the evening and did not sleep until completed. It is incredibly informative, terrifying and a screeching klaxon of alarm for our democracy. Imagine A.J. Liebling and William Shirer combing to write about the Reichstag fire of 1933 and that&#8217;s the sort of gift we&#8212;and history&#8212;have been given with The Steal.&#8221;&#8212;Stuart Stevens, New York Times bestselling author of It Was All a Lie&#8220;Visiting the six swing states at the heart of the election controversy, veteran journalists Bowden and Teague interviewed both the valiant overseers of the voting process and the passionate Trump supporters fomenting dissent. Rousing, infuriating, sobering, and&#10;instructive, this page-turning account of the election debacle exposes the legal, political, and, sadly, even physical attacks on those civic-minded individuals trusted with upholding democracy&#8217;s foundations and those committed to destroying that trust. A riveting must-read for all concerned about the future of American democracy.&#8221;&#8212;Booklist, starred reviewPraise for Mark Bowden: &#8220;With its blistering descriptions of an American special-forces operation gone wrong, Mark Bowden's 1999 nonfiction book Black Hawk Down made for excellent action-movie fare. The story told in his latest work, the deeply unsettling The Last Stone, unfolds more slowly but is no less potent. Bowden displays his tenacity as a reporter in his meticulous documentation of the case.&#8221;&#8212;Time, on The Last Stone &#8220;This is a story of extraordinary persistence and the grimmest, least romantic kind of heroism there is, and Bowden tells it with the dexterity of an old pro.&#8221;&#8212;Wall Street Journal,&#10;on The Last Stone &#160;&#8220;A telling a stirring, suspenseful, thoughtful story that, miraculously, neither oversimplifies the details nor gets lost in the thicket of a four-decade case file. This is a cat-and-mouse tale, told beautifully. But like all great true crime, The Last Stone finds its power not by leaning into clich&#233; but by resisting it &#8212; pushing for something more realistic, more evocative of a deeper truth.&#8221;&#8212;The New York Times, on The Last Stone &#8220;Riveting true crime from the ever-capable author&#8230; A keen synthesis of an intricate, decades long investigation, a stomach-churning unsolved crime, and a solid grasp of time, place, and character results in what is sure to be another bestseller for Bowden.&#8221;&#8212;Kirkus Reviews, on The Last Stone &#8220;Bowden delivers a narrative nonfiction masterpiece in this account of fiercely dedicated police detectives working to close a cold case. This is an intelligent page-turner likely to appeal even to readers who normally avoid true&#10;crime.&#8221;&#8212;Publishers Weekly (starred review), on The Last Stone &#8220;Interesting and insightful&#8230;The book is well-researched and well-written, and those interested in crime and police interrogation methods will find it most interesting.&#8221;&#8212;Washington Times, on The Last Stone &#8220;Bowden returns to the story that catapulted his career with a horrific portrait of a sociopath and honors the&#10;dedicated officers who were determined to get justice for two innocent girls and their grieving family.&#8221;&#8212;Booklist, on The Last Stone &#8220;Mesmerizing&#8230;The Last Stone will leave readers on the edge of their seats as a group of indefatigable detectives tries to unearth the carefully concealed, unspeakable truths behind a decades-old tragedy.&#8221;&#8212;BookPage, on The Last Stone &#160;&#8220;A passionate advocate for long-form journalism and one of its more successful practitioners . . . Bowden&#10;is so good at what he does best&#8212;highlighting the human angle of battles large and small.&#8221;&#8212;Minneapolis Star-Tribune on Three Battles of Wanat &#8220;Bowden . . . applies his signature blend of deep reportage and character-driven&#10;storytelling to bring readers a fresh look at the 1968 battle in the Vietnamese city of Hue . . . [A] compelling and highly readable narrative . . . A meticulous and vivid retelling of an important battle.&#8221;&#160;&#8212;New York Times Book Review,&#160;on Hue 1968 &#8220;One of the most intense, visceral reading experiences imaginable . . . The individual stories are woven together in such a compelling and expert fashion, the narrative flows so seamlessly, that it&#8217;s hard to imagine that this is not fiction.&#8221;&#8212;Philadelphia&#10;Inquirer, on Black Hawk Down &#8220;Riveting . . . Masterfully told . . .&#160; Plenty of classic Bowden here: meticulous reporting backed by a compelling narrative.&#8221;&#8212;Washington&#160;Post,&#10;on Guests of the Ayatollah &#8220;Mark Bowden has a way of&#10;making modern nonfiction read like the best of novels.&#8221;&#8212;Denver Post, on Killing Pablo&#10;

&ldquo;In Shock Value, New York Times scribe Zinoman attempts to give these directors the same treatment Peter Biskind gave Spielberg, Scorsese, and Coppola in his magnificent Easy Riders, Raging Bulls. In other words, he explains the filmmakers&rsquo; importance while never letting his cultural theorizing get in the way of a good production yarn or intriguing biographical nugget. Zinoman succeeds monstrously well in this mission&hellip;there is plenty here to make the most knowledgeable of horror fans&rsquo; head explode.&rdquo; &mdash; Entertainment Weekly&#160;&ldquo;Not only is Shock Value enormously well-researched &mdash; the book is based on the author's interviews with almost all of the movement's principals &mdash; it's also an unbelievable amount of fun. Zinoman writes with a strong narrative drive and a contagious charisma.&rdquo;  &mdash; NPR.org&ldquo;[Shock Value] fuses biography (in this case, of such masters of horror as Wes Craven, John Carpenter and Tobe Hooper), production history, movie criticism and social commentary into a unified and irresistible story...You should finish a great movie book with your dander up and your Netflix queue swelled by at least a dozen titles. And on that count, Shock Value more than delivers.&rdquo; &mdash; Laura Miller, Salon.com&quot;Zinoman...concentrates on a handful of films and filmmakers that brought the corpse back to life during the late 1960s and early &rsquo;70s, and he convincingly conveys what made movies like 'Night of the Living Dead' and 'The Texas Chainsaw Massacre' different from anything that had come before: more unsettling, purer in their sense of dread...where Shock Value excels is in its primary research, the stories of how the seminal shockers of this era came to be.&rdquo; &mdash; The New York Times&#160;&ldquo;Impassioned, articulate prose&hellip;Zinoman is such a literate, intelligent defender of the cause that his arguments are well worth reading. Even better, he has a knack for finding the characters in behind-the-scenes theatrics.&rdquo; &mdash; The Onion&ldquo;Though in-depth character bios and discussion of the changing movie business are fascinating, Zinoman&rsquo;s shot-by-shot descriptions of groundbreaking films and championing of understated gems are even more impressive. This volume reveals just enough to satiate horror aficionados, while offering plenty for curious fright-seekers who want to explore the formative years of what&rsquo;s become a billion-dollar industry.&rdquo; &mdash; Publishers Weekly starred review&ldquo;Insightful, revealing, and thoroughly engrossing&hellip;Thoroughly researched, Shock Value is chock full of nuggets of insider details that even the most hardcore horror fan might not know.&rdquo;  &mdash; About.com&ldquo;Between 1968 and 1976, all the films that redefined the horror movie were made: Night of the Living Dead, Rosemary&rsquo;s Baby, The Exorcist, Dark Star, The Last House on the Left, The Texas Chain Saw Massacre, and Carrie. In fluent reporter&rsquo;s prose lent urgency by personal fascination, Zinoman tells how their creators made those paradigm-shifters&hellip;There are many good-bad and downright bad books about horror movies. Zinoman gives us the rare all-good book about them.&rdquo; &mdash; Roy Olson, Booklist&ldquo;May well prove to be the most indispensable overview of modern horror.&rdquo;  &mdash; Rue Morgue Magazine&ldquo;Brisk, accessible and incisive...walks a tonal tightrope of entertaining prose and sobering deliberation.&rdquo; &mdash; Fangoria Magazine&ldquo;Five Stars. The most effortlessly enchanting treatise on the American horror film since Stephen King&rsquo;s Danse Macabre.... die-hard horror fans will worship it.&rdquo;  &mdash; BloodyDisgusting.com

Sie ist daher Zeithistoriker:innen, Kulturhistoriker:innen und Vertreter:innen der sozialen Bewegungsforschung sehr zu empfehlen.« Bernadett Bigalke, H-Soz-Kult, 05.01.2022

»Eva Locher ist es mit ihrer Studie gelungen, ein breites Panorama lebensreformerischer Aktivitäten, Strukturen und Diskurse in der Schweiz der Nachkriegsjahrzehnte zu zeichnen. Mit einer Vielfalt an methodischen Zugängen beleuchtet sie Protagonist:innen der Lebensreform und folgt der Entwicklung der Milieustrukturen. Dabei zeigt sie sowohl die Kontinuität lebensreformerischer Ansätze auf als auch die zeitgenössische Aktualisierung und Reformulierung entsprechender Diskurse mit Blick auf neue gesellschaftliche Entwicklungen.« David Templin, Erziehungswissenschaftliche Revue, 04.05.2022
