He had the strength of 10 men, X-ray eyes, and the fingers of a concert pianist. He had what it took to keep one woman satisfied and coming back for more. McFate lived in exotic Egypt, Saudi Arabia, and New Jersey. Hoping that the deep puncture wounds would start healing soon, he moved to the quiet unspoiled village of Chapel Hill, North Carolina. Upon his return to the Congo, he was dismembered, disemboweled and scalped.

Last August, two men in rural Georgia announced that they had killed Bigfoot. The claim drew instant, feverish attention, leading to more than 1,000 news stories worldwide—despite the fact that nearly everyone knew it was a hoax. Though Bigfoot may not exist, there’s no denying Bigfoot mania. With Bigfoot, Joshua Blu Buhs traces the wild and wooly story of America’s favorite homegrown monster. He begins with nineteenth-century accounts of wildmen roaming the forests of America, treks to the Himalayas to reckon with the Abominable Snowman, then takes us to northern California in 1958, when reports of a hairy hominid loping through remote woodlands marked Bigfoot’s emergence as a modern marvel. Buhs delves deeply into the trove of lore and misinformation that has sprung up around Bigfoot in the ensuing half century. We meet charlatans, pseudo-scientists, and dedicated hunters of the beast—and with Buhs as our guide, the focus is always less on evaluating their claims than on understanding why Bigfoot has inspired all this drama and devotion in the first place. What does our fascination with this monster say about our modern relationship to wilderness, individuality, class, consumerism, and the media? Writing with a scientist’s skepticism but an enthusiast’s deep engagement, Buhs invests the story of Bigfoot with the detail and power of a novel, offering the definitive take on this elusive beast.

In the final volume of the Pulitzer Prize–winner's bestselling and beloved American saga that began with All Over but the Shoutin’ and continued with Ava’s Man, this "evocative family memoir” (Boston Globe) delivers an unforgettable rumination about fathers and sons. Bragg documents a mesmerizing journey back in time to the lush Alabama landscape of his youth, to Jacksonville's one-hundred-year-old mill and to his father, the troubled, charismatic hustler coming of age in its shadow. Inspired by Rick Bragg's love for his stepson, The Prince of Frogtown also chronicles his own journey into fatherhood, as he learns to avoid the pitfalls of his forebearers. With candor, insight, and tremendous humor, Bragg seamlessly weaves these luminous narrative threads together.

Dalmatian toadflax studied under Francis Picabia at the Ecole des Arts Decoratifs in Paris. Later, on a freighter out of Iskenderun, Turkey, toadflax made his way to Seattle in a burlap sack. Since then, the strongly competitive toadflax has spread his nonlinear, arational roots in 22 American states. He is best known as an innovative flower, not to mention follower of Wassily Kandinsky's philosophy of Gesamtkunstwerk. Having no one permanent residence, he makes his home in cow pastures. He stands tall along the shoulders of little-used country lanes where drunks stop to urinate. He also haunts rural dumps frequented by clumsily quizzical black bears, all places where lovely little lavender butterflies go this way, and they go that way. Indeed, in these quiet and forgotten edens of timeless idyll, women in shapeless dresses mutter to themselves as they poke piles of refuse with smooth worn wooden poles. At only four feet in height, toadflax is a dandy, known by his showy yellow spring attire. As a result, he is often mistaken for a snapdragon. He is not a snapdragon. Denounced by many critics as little more than a Class B Noxious Weed, toadflax says his art arises out of acheiropoieta-it springs into being miraculously. toadflax may be reached at [email protected] or www.americanpoetryalliance.com.
