Henry Holt and Company 175 Fifth Avenue New York, NY 10010 Henry Holt and Company 175 Fifth Avenue New York, NY 10010 Patricia Eisemann VP Executive Director of Publicity tel (646) 307-5241 fax (646) 307-5261 [email protected] For Immediate Release Michael Wolff’s New Book ‘Siege: Trump Under Fire’ To Be Published by Henry Holt on June 4 NEW YORK, May 15, 2019 -- Henry Holt will publish Michael Wolff’s new book “Siege: Trump Under Fire” on June 4, it was announced today. Wolff is the author of the number-one international bestseller “Fire and Fury: Inside the Trump White House,” widely considered the first book to reveal the inner workings of the most controversial presidency in American history. Stephen Rubin, Holt’s Chairman, bought the book from Andrew Wylie of The Wylie Agency. John Sterling, the editor of “Fire and Fury,” will edit the new book. The book is embargoed until publication. With “Fire and Fury,” Wolff defined the first phase of the Trump administration; now, in “Siege,” he has written an equally essential and explosive book about a presidency that is under fire from almost every side. A stunningly fresh narrative that begins just as Trump’s second year as president is getting underway, and ends with the delivery of the Mueller report, “Siege” reveals an administration that is perpetually beleaguered by investigations and a president who is increasingly volatile, erratic, and exposed. Michael Wolff is the author of “Fire and Fury,” the number-one bestseller that for the first time told the inside story of the Trump White House. He has received numerous awards for his work, including two National Magazine Awards. The author of seven previous books, he has been a regular columnist for Vanity Fair, New York, The Hollywood Reporter, British GQ, and other magazines and newspapers. He lives in Manhattan and has four children. About Henry Holt Henry Holt and Company has been publishing quality fiction and nonfiction books for more than 150 years.

  • Orbis Pictus Award for Outstanding Nonfiction in Children's
    Orbis Pictus Award for Outstanding Nonfiction in Children’s Literature Charge: To select the recipient of the annual Orbis Pictus Award for Outstanding Nonfiction for Children and up to five honor books; to propose a session on nonfiction books for children and plan a session featuring the award winning author at NCTE's Annual Convention; and to promote the use of nonfiction children's books in the classroom. As committee chair, I am grateful for the support provided by the NCTE staff members, Debbie Zagorski and Linda Walters, who continue to supply encouragement, information, and patience. What major actions or projects have been completed by your group pursuant to your charge since July 1, 2012? Since July 2012 the committee announced the winner, honor, and recommended books, from those nonfiction books published in 2011, in an article of reviews for Language Arts and at the national conference in Las Vegas in November 2012. The committee acknowledged a number of authors and illustrators at the children’s literature luncheon. Melissa Sweet, Candace Fleming, Monica Brown, and Julie Paschkis, were honored. Later the authors participated in a round table author discussion about writing and illustrating books for young readers. The committee’s selection of the 2012 Orbis Pictus Award Books was intensive and challenging because of the number of excellent and varied books published for young readers. Features and content were diverse and sometimes controversial; new forms such as the memoir and first-person biography, as well as superb photographs and design continue to renew, expand and invigorate the genre. The concerns about sources and documentation in books for the youngest readers continue to be part of committee discussions.

COMPLAINT Plaintiffs, - against - AUDIBLE, INC. Defendant. Plaintiffs Chronicle Books, LLC ("Chronicle"), Hachette Book Group, Inc.

("Scholastic"), and Simon & Schuster, Inc.

NATURE OF THE ACTION 1. Audible, Inc. unilaterally—without permission from or any notice to Publishers— has decided to introduce a new, unauthorized, feature for its mobile application called, “Audible Captions.” Audible Captions takes Publishers’ proprietary audiobooks, converts the narration into unauthorized text, and distributes the entire text of these “new” digital books to Audible’s customers. Audible’s actions—taking copyrighted works and repurposing them for its own benefit without permission—are the kind of quintessential infringement that the Copyright Act directly forbids. 2. All of the Publishers are member companies of the Association of American Publishers, the mission of which is to be the voice of American publishing on matters of law and public policy.

  • Nickel and Dimed by Barbara Ehrenreich
    1 NICKEL AND DIMED 2 NICKEL AND DIMED Praise for Nickel and Dimed "A brilliant on-the-job report from the dark side of the boom. No one since H. L. Mencken has assailed the smug rhetoric of prosperity with such scalpel-like precision and ferocious wit." - Mike Davis, author of Ecology of Fear "Eloquent ... This book illuminates the invisible army that scrubs floors, waits tables, and straightens the racks at discount stores." - Sandy Block, USA Today "Courageous ... Nickel and Dimed is a superb and frightening look into the lives of hard- working Americans ... policy makers should be forced to read." - Tamara Straus, San Francisco Chronicle "I was absolutely knocked out by Barbara Ehrenreich's remarkable odyssey. She has accomplished what no contemporary writer has even attempted-to be that `nobody' who barely subsists on her essential labors. Not only is it must reading but it's mesmeric. Bravo!" - Studs Terkel, author of Working "Nickel and Dimed opens a window into the daily lives of the invisible workforce that fuels the service economy, and endows the men and women who populate it with the honor that is often lacking on the job. And it forces the reader to realize that all the good- news talk about welfare reform masks a harsher reality." - Katherine Newman, The Washington Post "With grace and wit, Ehrenreich discovers the irony of being `nickel and dimed' during unprecedented prosperity ... Living wages, she elegantly shows, might erase the shame that comes from our dependence `on the underpaid labor of others.'" - Eileen Boris, The Boston Globe "It is not difficult to endorse Nickel and Dimed as a book that everyone who reads-yes, everyone - ought to read, for enjoyment, for consciousness-raising and as a call to action." - Steve Weinberg, Chicago Tribune "Unflinching, superb ..

  • The Armed Services Editions and American Print Culture, 1943-1947
    Alexander H. Poole. “As Popular as Pin-Up Girls:” The Armed Services Editions and American Print Culture, 1943-1947. A Master’s Paper for the M.S. in L.S degree. April, 2009. 121 pages. Advisor: Barbara B. Moran. During the Second World War, the United States government collaborated with American publishers to provide servicemen with unprecedented access to reading material. Between 1943 and 1947, the Armed Services Editions project supplied 1,322 titles and nearly 123 million books in all genres, from classics to westerns. Using both primary and secondary sources, the following essay probes the interplay between culture and society, home front and theaters of war, as viewed through the lens of the Armed Services Editions. The project provides a case study, in short, through which to analyze what historians Carl Kaestle and Janice Radway call “print culture” between 1943 and 1947. The Armed Service Editions initiative reveals not only changes in modern book publishing and in modern book reading, but also documents larger trends in modern American culture, notably the ascendance of “middlebrow” culture during the second quarter of the twentieth century. Ultimately, the Armed Services Editions represent a valuable—yet often overlooked—chapter in American cultural history. Headings: Books and reading—United States—History—20th century. Popular culture—United States—History—20th century. World War, 1939-1945—United States. Literature—Appreciation—United States—History—20th century. Middle class—United States—History—20th century.
