Sullenberger, Chesley Highest Duty: My Search for What Really Matters Capt. Chesley "Sully" Sullenberger became one of the most recognized men in America when he landed US Airways Flight 1549 on the Hudson River in January of 2009, narrowing averting disaster. Now, in this gripping memoir, the pilot New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg dubbed “Captain Cool” recounts not just the details of that harrowing five minute and eight second flight, but also the lifetime of flight training leading up to it, and the intriguing aftermath of the incident.

Summers, Judith. My life with George : what I learned about joy from one neurotic (and very expensive) dog Life for Judith Summers and her son seemed relentlessly bleak. Then George bounced into their lives. A loving Cavalier King Charles Spaniel with film-star looks, George re-awoke their joie de vivre. Living with George had its drawbacks. He was a full- time job and as expensive to run as a Ferrari.

Thompson, Flora. Over to Candleford The second part of the Lark Rise to Candleford trilogy. Laura is growing up, and the family's boundaries are extending beyond Lark Rise to include Candleford.

Thompson, Harry Penguins stopped play : eleven village cricketers take on the world It seemed a simple enough idea at the outset: to assemble a team of eleven men to play cricket on each of the seven continents of the globe.

126 Trout, Nick. Tell me where it hurts : a day of humor, healing, and hope in my life as an animal surgeon A veterinary surgeon offers his perspective on a typical day in his life, presenting anecdotes about pets and their owners and the unique blend of cutting-edge technology, old-fashioned instinct, and caring that comprise veterinary medicine today.

Vowell, Sarah The Wordy Shipmates To this day, America views itself as a Puritan nation, but author Vowell investigates what that means—and what it should mean. What was this great political enterprise all about? Who were these people who are considered the philosophical, spiritual, and moral ancestors of our nation? What Vowell discovers is something far different from what their uptight shoe-bucklesand- corn reputation might suggest.

Walsh, George 50 Plus One Great Books You Should Have Read (and Probably Didn’t) A masterpiece of information for educated individuals who want to expand their horizons, and a fascinating

127 look at the beliefs and teachings of some of the greatest minds throughout the centuries.

Walsh, Peter Does this clutter make my butt look fat? : An easy plan for losing weight and living more Pet er Walsh believes that the secret to successfully losing weight is to forget about calorie counting and weekly weigh- ins. Instead you need to focus on how, why, and where you eat. When it comes to clearing clutter (the fat in our homes) it isn't about the stuff itself, it's about the life you want to live. The same is true for

losing weight: It's not about the pounds; it's about living the life you deserve in the body you want.

Zaslow, Jeffrey The girls from Ames: a story of women and a forty-year friendship They formed a special bond growing up in the small town of Ames, Iowa. As young women, they moved to eight different states yet managed to maintain an extraordinary friendship that would carry them through college and careers, marriage and motherhood, dating and divorce, the death of a child, and the mysterious death of the eleventh member of the group. Their remarkable story, which captures what it was like to go from girlhood in the sixties to middle age in the millennium, is a testament to the deep, enduring bonds of women.

128 Zimbardo, Philip and John Boyd The Time Paradox: The New Psychology of Time That Will Change Your Life In a remarkable book that does for time what Blink did for snap judgments, New York Times-bestselling author Zimbardo and research partner Boyd combine scientific and popular psychology, self-help advice, and social commentary into a big think guide for living today.
